Wilton ] Lambert. of 40 Fifth Street
northwest, representing the owners Of
lots 50 and 50 in square 203, protests
against a permit being granted for the
establishment OF the proposed market on
Fourteenth Street, near V Street north
west. MT. Lambert expresses the belief
that the establishment of such q business,
bringing most Objectionable traffic and
promoting a most disa greeable condition
OF affairs in the entire neighborbood, viii
damage the property Of persons whose
holdings do not Immediately confront the
proposed building.
Mr. Lambert contends that It lies within
the discretionary powers of the Commits
sioHers to consider the wishes and objec-
tons Of these property holders. He says
he has information to the effect that IN
many large and progressive cities market
houses are now regarded, especially in the
resident sections of the city, as not only
detrimental but as nuisances and men
aces TO the health Of the neighborhoOd.
Mr.. Lambert fails to see how, under the
present condition Of affairs, there can
be any necessity for the establishment Of
a market in the locality In question. Con-
sidering this fact and the expressed wishes
Of a large majority of the residents and
owners of valuable property in the gen
eraI section in which il is proposed to 10
cate the market, Mr.. Lambert submits
that the permit ought not TO be granted

New Cure for Rheumatism.

Hester, Mo-, Dec. 16-An unusual
case which has recently come to light
here is exciting the keenest interest
among medical men. Mrs. EllenOr

has been regarded as chronic and abso-

almost unbearable and she could not
rest day or night.
Some few months ago she was Undue

magical and she continued till she had,
taken eight boxes, and now she de
clares she has not an ache or pain left.
She believes that she is completely and
permanently cured, and as she has not
used the pills for some months and is
to-day in the best of health, the doctors
who were at first skepticaI are amazed.

CONGRESSIONAL NEWS,

Washington, Dec 12.-The senate
agreed to vote before adjournment
Monday on the new Hay-Pauncefote
treaty. This agreement was reached
after a four hours debate sufficiently
interesting to insure the constant
attention Of most senators. Senator
Spooner, who was one of the principal
speakers, had just concluded when
Senator Lodge made an effort 10
secure vote. 1t developed there
were other senators who desired to he
heard, the result being the date FOR
the vote was postponed until Monday
The agreement provided for the ad-
jOurnment of the senate from TODAY
until Monday. The principal speakers
Money and Foraker. Mr. Money
while finding much in the treaty TO
criticise, said as he found the fortunes
of the proposed canal across the
isthmus ineXtricably intertwined with
the treaty he could not see his way
clear to do anything that would pre-
vent or even delay the ratification.
Senator Foraker maintained the pro-
visions of the new treaty would meet
every objection made to the original
Hay-Paurcefote treaty and cover
every essential thing included in the
amendments made by the senate to
that document. He remarked as of
the utmost Importance that the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty should be wiped
out. He asserted that all the rights
of the United States were amply pro-
tected under this treaty and our
! absolute and complete control Of the
canal could not be questioned ty
Great Britain or any other power .
Senator Bacon asked if it was not
true that under the terms of the
treaty the construction of fortifca-
tons by the United States would 0e
an act of war. Senator Foraker re-
piled in the negative, declaring that
not only would such an act not be IN
act of hostility, but to build fortifica-
tions in case Of necessity was one Of
the inherent rights of the government.
Senator Spooner also was frequently
interrupted by senators on the demo-
cratic side. Answering these he
maintained that England, after con-
tending for half a century against
Notifications, had waived that pro-
vision, thus practically conceding our
right to fortify the proposed canal.
During the Interruptions many sena-
tors on both sides took part in the
controversy. Senator Spooner con
tended that the United States would
have the right to control the canal
after it's own manner during any war
to which this country might be a
party. Senator Mason interjected
that theaty agreements never bind a
nation to the extinction of it's military
rights and duties. Senator Spooner
assented and said no matter what
might be the provisions Of the treaty
a nation could not be accused of dis
honor or immortality if it's terms were
broken in defense of it's own ex-
istence.

plains of One.

The authorities at Washburn college
are considerably aroused on the road
house situation. and are trying to de-
eide on some, plan of action to protect
the students of the college.
The road house which is especially
odious to Washburn is the one owned by
Harry Croft. in the old Stone mansion,
located on the road leading directly west
from the college. Hack parties going
to the road house follow the pavement
to- the college grounds, and then turn
west skirting the college grounds for
the distance of half a mile. The road
leads past the young ladies' boarding
halls, and the athletic field.
In years past this road has been the
favorite walk for the girls who board at
the college. On pleasant afternoons and
evenings dozens of girls from the col
lege were accustomed to stroll out this
road which is macadamized and always
affords a good place for walking. A few
unpleasant experiences this year result
ed in the announcement to the girls who
board at the cottages that it would be
unwise for them to walk on this road
alone in the future.
ties of men and sometimes women who
were going to or returning from the
road house. Often the occupants of
these hacks were intoxicated, and the
college officers wisely decided that it
was not only improper, but unsafe for
the young women to frequent the road.

to protect itself remains to be seen. Eff
