CONFUSION OF NAMES.
Streets on Columbia Heights That
Bear Different Applications.

II
Bear Different AppeIiutions.
A communication has been received by
the District Commissioners from the CO.
lumbia Heights Citizens Association in
which the attention of the Commissioners
is invited to the confusion caused by the
fact that certain streets in the section
bear two names. 1t is pointed out by the
association that the confusion exists north
of Florida avenue, between 7th and 14th
streets. where the streets laid out in the
subdivisions of Columbia Heights and Todd
and Browns have been given different
names. Thus Roanoke street IN Columbia
Heights becomes Irving street in the other
subdivision Yale becomes Bismarck, Kan
sas becomes Wallach and Dartmouth
changes into Farragut.
There is considerable confusion" it Is
stated, lat present in the streets already
laid out and named in conformity to the
new system of naming the streets in al
phabettcal order. In the earlier subdiyi-
sions since the adoption of this system the
names OF the streets We're given leaving
out the letters x, and z. and commenc-
ing after w street with the names OF
cities In alphabetical order. By the order
of the Commissioners in May 1885, how
ever, the use of the last three letters OF
the alphabet was decided upon, and this
mad the effect Of throwing the whole pre-
vious nomenclature into confusion, and II
adhered to 1t will be necessary to revise
the whole arrangement of names'
The association recommends that the
streets in the Todd and Brown subdivision
be given the names of the streets of which
they are combinations in the Columbia
Heights subdivision. and it ia renuestad
that the streets west of 14th street retain
their present names of places instead of
streets, as they are but single block long.

splendid dramatization Of Dolly
Higbee's beautiful story of Kentucky
life, called "In Gods Country The
play is pure, elevating wholesome and
is, withal, intensely interesting and
absorbing, without ever descending to
cheap trickery. Perhaps it's character
has been no better summed up in a
few words than the commend of the
New York World when the play was
first given at the Fifth avenue theater,
in that city. "It is the first genuine
hit of the season." Its story, briefly
told is as follows: A young girl living
with her father, who is a widower, in
the comparative retirement made nee
essary by financial embarrassment,
has consented to wed a wealthy young
fellow who is something of a libertine.
But she falls in love with her father S
gardener and elopes with him. 1t de-
velopes that the supposed gardener is
gentleman of noble birth, in disguise.
There is return home, forgiveness
and happiness, and the curtain falls
upon beautiful finale. There will be

house and start on a run. The man
was pursued by Mr.. Thibault, who
fired a revolver he had taken UP in

continued for nearly half mile, when
the thief dropped in the snow. Mr..
Thibault pulled the thief out of the
snow and compelled him to accompany
him to his home. The man was known
to Mr.. Thibault, who, out of considera-
ton for an aged mother, refuses to tell
the name. The revolver was loaded
with blank cartridges.

INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach
Trouble.
INSTANTLY RELIEVED AND PER-
NIANENTLY CURED.
A New Discovery, but Not Patent
Medicine.

Dr. Redwell relates an interesting
markable cure of acute stomach trou-
BILE and chronic dyspepsia by the use
of the new discovery, Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
He says: The patient was man
who had suffered to my knowledge for
years with dyspepsia. Everything
he ate seemed to sour and create acid
and gases in the stomach; he had
pains like rheumatism in the back,
shoulder blades and limbs, fullness
and distress after eating, poor appe-
came affected, causing palpitation and
sleeplessness at night.
I gave him powerful nerve tonics
and blood remedies. but to no pur-
pose. AS an experiment I finally
bought a fifty cent package of Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets at drug
store and gave them to him. Almost
immediate relief was given, and after
he had used four boxes he was to all
appearances fully cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
WdlGiy IlSiIlS5S, lO plOdlltlS1 dlltI IlledlS,
the appetite was vigorous, and he has
gained between 10 and II pounds in
weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's are advertised and sold in drug
stores, yet consider them a most val
liable addition to any physicians line
of remedies, as they are perfectly
harmless and can be given to children
or invalids or in any condition of the
stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but
vegetable and fruit essences, pure
pepsin, and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest. most effective cure for indi-
gestion, biliousness, constipation, and
all arrangements of the stomach. how
ever slight or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists everywhere at fifty
cents for full sized package.

DIED AS SHE SLEPT.

Johanna Pfiuegar, aged sixty-eight,
passed away at her home, 4S Union
street, some time yesterday morning.
When some of her people went to her
room to see how she was yesterday
morning they were greatly surprised
to find her dead in bed. She had APP
parently passed away without strug-
gle, probably while asleep. The death
was so sudden that it was thought
best to notify Medical Examiner
White. AS a result of his inquiry he
decided death to have been due to
bronchitis.
She was a widow and was born in
Germany. Her maiden name was Deu-
sci, and she was a daughter of Chris
tan Deusel. For some time past she
had kept boarding house at her place
of residence.
