A WARD FOR INEBRIATES.
Provision May Be Made for Them
RN Cong


The project of establishing an inebriate
| asylum in the District OF Columbia has
been industriously advocated before Con-
gress for several years by Judge Ivory G.
kimball, of the police court; DR.. W. w.
Godding, superintendent of st. Elizabeth's s
Hospital for the Insane, and several 9TH
ers.
Bills We're introduced, but they were
crowded aside.
Judge Kimball in talking with a Times
reporter last night expressed the belief
that the object for which he has labored
so long will be attained in q measure be-
fore Congress adjourns.
The proposition which has been favor
ably considered by the inebriate asylum
projectors is that one of the large wards
in the Government hospital for the in
sane shall be set aside for inebriates who
may be committed by the courts.
While Judge Kirnball is anxious for the
establishment of a separate institution
here, he said that he believes in the old
adage that half a loaf is better than no
loaf at all. and is glad that favorable
action Is about to be taken.
Under the care of DR.. Godding he says.
the human derelicts who are wrecked
by strong drink, and are now sent to
the workhouse, may by the proposed ar
rangement receive scientific medical
treatment for dipsomania and other
forms of alcoholism.

ANOTHER INCIDENT CLOSED.
The Chilean Legation Gets Rid Of an
Undesirable Servant.


There was an internatioal difficulty yes
terday at the Chilean legation. when
Senor Don Domingo, the Chilean min
lister. living at No. 1919 X street north
west, discharged his butler, French
man, named Constance.
The latter refused to quit the legation,
which, according TO international law, is
Chilean territory. Senior Cana was pow
eriess to act and finally was compelled
to seek advice by consulting Inspector
Mattingly, chief of the Washington de-
tectives.
Constance has been in the employ of
the Chilean minister for about 4 month.
Recently he started drinking and yester-
day morning he became intoxicated and
was given his discharge. The French
man. however. had no intention of re-
linquishlng his office, and so announced.
He said he was perfectly satisfied with
his situation and would not give it up
under any inducement.
Then Senor Cana took a hand You
are not wanted here he remarked.
'Why do you not go?' "Oh, don't want
to- was the answer. But you must.
do not want you here; you must go
'.Oh, i guess not said Constance.
This suits me,
The Chilean minister persuaded and
threatened by turn, but the butler was
iirm In his refusal to leave the premises.
Constance became beligerent, too. and
intimated that any attempt TO eject him
would result seriously. AT one time il
was thought that the French minister
might be consulted. and his friendly Of
nces requested so that recall might be
issued to Constance. but this idea was
given up when it was remembered that
Constance might send in his resignation,
have ii accepted and then take his time
about leaving. Then again Senior Cana
had his doubts about Constance being
genuine FTenehman. He might have Sc
cured naturalization papers and become
an American.
Driven To desperation, he at last de
termined 10 consult the Washington po-
lice department He called on Inspector
Mattingly and related his troubles He
wanted some advice. He was informed
that as the legation was foreign terri
tory the police could not enter the prem
ises and eject the butler any more than
a detective could go TO Chile TO drive an
American home.
What can | do then?r he asked
You can use whatever means You de-
sire to eject him, was the advice given
Can | point pistol at him to intimi-
date him." asked Senor Cana. He was
told that he could.
II suppose / cant shoot him, can I?"
remarked the minister. as Ire hurried
from police headquarters.
He went back To the legation. An hour
ater Constance emerged from the Chilean
premises, but when Times reporter call
ed the secretary of the legation said he
did not know how the minister had in
iuced him 10 make his exit. "He was Just

CAN WE BE CURED
sOi Catarrh,, Bronchitis. Asthma.
Consumptions
A Test by Which the True Value of
All Cures Can be Determined.

How many thousands there are today
who would gladly pay almost any reason
able sum to beFcured of either one of the
above diseases, but, knowing OF so many
different remedies and treatments, are
unable to decide which one to try. 1t does
seem difficult task yet becomes a COM
paratively easy one IL the person affiict-
ed will but use 4 little good judgment and
common sense In the first place, every
man and woman knows, or should know,
that the air passages were made FOR air
alone, and that nature has so construct
ed these passages that moisture of any
kind cannot enter the bronchial tubes or
lungs. This at once precludes all possi-
bility of a cure of deep-seated diseases
being effected by treatment requiring the
use OF sprays. douches, atomiZers or va
pors. Secondly, all regular physicians adj
NIT that these diseases are purely local
ana must be treated locally, consequent
ly stomach medicines become useless in
treating diseases of the air passages. The
diseased parts must be reached through
the air we breathe not at all. Not
only this but germieide must be used
which will leave the air dry. and yet
have the power to destroy the bacilli Of
disease in the minutest air cells OF the
lungs. This decision reached, then comes
the question, Is there such germicide
which can be inhaled through the air
you breathe? Thirty-eight hundred ply
sicians and over three hundred thousand
persons who have tested it. say YES.

Rupture Cure.

Attention is called to the advertisement
of the Fidelity Rupture Cure Company of
Vermont. This company is incorporated
under the laws of the state of Vermont for
the purpose of placing the radical cure of
hernia in easy reach OF all afflicted with
that dangerous condition OF discomfort
Hernia is condition and not disease.
1t requires mechanical or operative means
to perfect cure. Results prove that of
all methods ever used for cure OF hernia
that of injection by hypodermic needle is
the best. Only regular physicians of large
experience are employed by the Fidelity
company to treat their patients.
DR.. o. 0 Davis is graduate of Dart
mouth college, class of 1868, and has a
larger experience in treating hernia by the
hypodermic method than any man living in
New England. He received personal in
struction from the well known eminent sur
geon, DR. joseph Warner of Boston, in
1868 and for several years thereafter. DR..
Davis says if you want that hernia cured
then remember that no matter how skepti-
cal you may be, the cure can be made just
the same for it is not a faith cure but when
the cure is made doubts are displaced by
faith, Joy fills the mind and gratitude flows
from the heart.

Bishop Halls Address Criticised.

The Burlington Free Press published a few
days ago the following letter from K. E
Knott, commission merchant of that city,
who criticises from brokers' standpoint the
bishops opinion of the buying and selling
of stocks on margin:
"To the Editor of the Free Press: Permit
me to express in the most kindly spirit, my
regret that our respected and genial Bishop
Hall, should have so far wandered from his
usual path as to forget the Importance of his
words as a distinguished ecclesiastic to speak
'diffidently' of matter OF so much import
ance, that many honorable, upr ght and con-
scientious men, may be put under a ban of
reproach by a very wrongful accusation.
In the bishops address at Rutland recently,
he classified buying and selling stocks, grain
or cotton on margin as gambling, though
modifying his statements by admitting that
he smoke 'dffidently. 1t seems right and
fair for layman who does understand the
nature of these transactions, to question the
propriety of such an utterance, that brings
into disrepute many hundreds of lawabiding
and honorable stock and commission brokers,
and hundreds of thousands of equally law
abidir g and reputable citizens who buy and
sell the commodities upon the regular ex'
changes upon margins We can all excuse
the bigot and the ignorant and look with
compassion upon the miserable minded SIAN
derer, but it taxes our indulgence when we
hear or read of one whose knowledge should
come from uncontradictable facts, give utter
ance to very serious ard erroneous state
ments shout matter that any intelllge,
broker, many experienced aud intelligen
citizens or unpre Indeed banker, could make
plain and simple to understanding.
