preme Court of the District by Lewis Z.

shall issue against Elihu Root, in his Off
cial capacity as Secretary of War, to com
pei him to muster out and discharge the
petitioner from the United States Army.
Brown claims that under the name OF
Louis E. Brown he was appointed first

teer Infantry, United States Army, on June

On May %. 1899. it is alleged, the
President issued an order directing
the Secretary of War to muster out
and discharge the Ninth Volunteer Infan-
try from the service. The regiment, it IS
stated, was then stationed at Camp Meade,
Pa, and the petitioner, Brown, alleges that
the order of the President as to the mus
tering out and discharge OF the regiment
was carried out in reference to everyone
except himself. Brown states that Sec
rotary Root refused to muster him cut, al
though requested to do so, and by such re-
fusal the petitioner alleges that ne has
been unable to obtain payment due him for
his services.
On May and May II last. Brown alleges
that, in writing he requested the Secretary
of War to grant him his discharge, but he
refused to do so, on the ground that Brown
had been found guilty by court martial in
February II, 1899 of conduct unbecoming
an officer and a gentleman.
The petitioner states that this sentence
is illegal and void, for that on November

ed by court-martial and found not guilty.

es against him and sentenced him TO be

What Makes Be9UgU =?

Heauty is made or marred by the blood.
When the blood is impure, the cheeks
grow sallow, the eyes dull, the hair loses
its luster. When the blood flows through
the veins in a pure, rich current, the
eyes sparkle, the skin is clear, the com
plexion beautiful. Women who use DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, find
that it is genuine beautifer. By puri-
flying and enriching the blood it puts
bloom on the cheek and brightness in
the eye, which tell the story OF perfect
