Oh! The Pain

MY wife was for years a sufferer

including widely advertised blood rem

INDIGNITIES COMPLAINED OF.
State Department Mentions Insults to
Spanish Legation.

The Secretary of State several days ago
wrote the District Commissioners relative
to a complaint made to him of indignities
offered the Spanish minister. The Secre-
tary stated that he had been informed

about his home. 1885, Massachusetts ave

GREETED exceedingly that such things had
occurred, and hoped that the Commission
ers would prevent il by Instructions issued

The Commissioners have replied by stat
ing to the Secretary that few weeks ago
1t was reported TO them that some filth
had been thrown on the sign of the Span
ish legation and that the attention Of the
police department having been called to the
matter the police were requested to give
special attention TO the legation. But not

the exteat of placing an officer there SO as

INDORSE CONCURRENCE
Commissioners Approve an Application for q
Permit Affecting Building Line.
The Point at Issue is of Importance
to Owners of Real Estate
Attorneys Opinion.

The Commissioners of the District of Co.
l,mbia today submitted to the Secretary of
War. for his consideration, a special appli-
cation by Mr.. Robert L. Preston for per-
nit to construct step projection beyond
the building line, according to the plan
thereto annexed, for building on part of
lot &C. square 1877, to be known as No. 1910
18th street northwest upon which applca-
ton the Commissioners have Endorsed theE
Concurrence.
The propriety of issuing this permit has
been contested by Mr.. Robert F. Shepard,
who, In person and by attorney, appeared
before the Commissioners in support of his
claim that the permit should be withheld,
Mr. Preston also appearing before the COM
missioners, in person and by attorney, in
behalf of the approval of his application.
The point at issue, one of much interest
TO the public, was substantially as follows:
In the summer Of 1S90. Mr.. Shepard erected
a dwelling, numbered 1906 18th street
northwest, on part of lot %, in square 49,
acting, as he claims. in accordance with
the following order of the Commissioners
of May II, 1886:
The division lines Of street parking in
fro mt of lots facing circles or avenues shall
be coincident with the party lines of such
lets"
Following the then prevailing CUSTOM
he laid out the boundary lines of his park
ing on the extension of his lot lines and
constructed the front elevation of his house
at right angles with the side lines of said
lot. He commended that Notwithstanding
the change In the regula ton on the sub
ject. contained in the building regulation
adopted December l, 1892, that 1.-The division
lines of street parking in front of lots fac
Ing circles or avenues shall be at right
ar giles with the building line he had, by
bis observance Of the regulations and Gus
tom prevailing at the time he built and by
his unchallenged continuance Of that status
up to the time of the application of Mr.
Preston. acquired right to the mainten-
ance of those conditions, at least until the
authorities should make some rule to the
contrary which should be applicable to all
cases of like character. He advanced the
doctrine of res judicate in support of his
claim that the subsequent regulation should
rot have a retroactive effect. He adduced
the fact that Mr.. Preston bought his lot
long after the establishment of the status
he seeks by his application to disturb, as
reason why the Commissioners should leave
the matter as 1t stood so as to place upon
Mr. Preston the burden of insttuting legal
proceedings.

LOVE AND CORN CURE.
Both Were Bitter and the Lat ter MAY
Prove Fatal.

Albert Bauman was much and hope
lessly in love. The young woman heart
was callous, wherefore he swallowed
corn cure and became very sick.
Bauman is 20 years old and is eu-
ployed in a department store in New
York. For three years he has boarded
with Mrs. @. Reynolds, in West Tenth
street A man occupying an adjoining
room heard groans about half past 10
O'Clock on a recent night, and, upon in
vestigating, found Bauman in bed in
great pain. 4 policeman was called in,
and the young man was removed to st.
Vincent's hospital.
In his room was found a note, the en-
velope addressed to Mrs. Reynolds. 1t
read as follows:
''No one but myself is to blame for
this act. l have incurred the hatred Of
the one I loved, who was very dear TO
me. Now / receive the penalty May
heaven bless her and spare her for an
other world. "
This was neatly written and does not
refer to Mrs. Reynolds. She says so.

The 6-ycar-ald son of q rcvsnapcr

with his 190+ho". b~5 tie trouble vi,
him is That he becomes greatly excited
and is apt to express his feelings in
words to the amusement of the audi
ence, but somewhat to the annoyance
of the actors At recent play one of
the actors was in the act of choking an
other whom he suspected Of being guilty
of crime. AS the actor went toward
the supposed villain with his hands
outstretched the boy became greatly ex-
cited, and as the men clinched the boy
stood up and called out, "Say, let him
alone, he didn't do it, There was a
laugh from the audience and a surprised
look from the stage.
At another time, in a play where a
husband suspected his wife, and she
was pleading to be taken home and
given an opportunity to prove her in
nocenoe, the boy could not stand the
woman's pleas and the husbands cold
reception of her entreaties, and he called
out, please, mister, take her back. "

snakes were coied together in a solid
mass, and on being disturbed began
squirming and hissingin truly fright

Odor. The snakes were from foot to
six feet in length, and large around in
proportion. The reptiles were animat-
ed by being exposed TO the air, and one
of the large fellows with quick move
ment coiled himself around Hamman's
ankle. With wild scream of "Oh, my

and their removal began. Measured

AS the snakes were removed from

1t has been held that consumption is
hereditary, and the fact that one person
of family had died with consumption
was considered sure sign that others Of
that family could not escape it. This is
partly true and partly untrue. A man
with weak lungs is likely to transmit
that weakness to his children. But
there is no reason in the world why the
weakness should be allowed to develop.
Keep the lungs full of rich, red, whole
some blood, and the weakness will dis
appear. Decaying tissues will be thrown
off, and new material will be added until
the lungs are we'll and perfectly strong
again. This is the thing that Dr..
