Everybody Laughed.

The cities which have passed
:antiexpectoration ordinances are
the scenes of numerous humorous
incidents connected with the en-
forcement of the new law. A we'll
dressed, evidently prosperous old
man, whose high color told elo-
quently of govt and other results of
high living, broke the law while in
Ia street car recently. A quiet but
determined young man, whose man
ner was courtesy itself and whose
speech was that of an educated and
refined person, called the offenders
attention to the prohibitory sign.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE RAPID IN
CREASE OF HEART TROUBLE.


Heart trouble at least among the Americans. Is
certainly increasing. and while this may be large
ly due to the excitement and worry of American
business life it is more often the result of weak
stomachs, of poor digestion
Real organic disease Is incurable; but not one
in hundred of heart trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble and poor
digestion is because both organs controlled by
the same great nerves, the Sympathetic and Pneu
mogastric.
In another way also the heart Is affected by the
form of poor digestion, which causes gas and fer
mtrtation from half-digested food. There is
feeling OF oppression and heaviness In the chest.
caused by pressure of the distended stomach on
the heart and lungs. interfering with their action:
hence arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood making 1t
thin and watery. which irritates and weakens the
heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart trouble is
to improve the digestion and to insure the prompt
assimilation of food.
This can be done by the regular use after meals
of some safe, pleasant and effective digestive
preparation, like Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets which
may be found at most drug stores. and which con-
tain valuable. harmless digestive elements in a
pleasant convenient form.
1t Is safe to say that the regular, persistent use
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at meal time will
cure any form OF stomach trouble except cancer
of the stomach.
Full-sized package of these tablets sold by drug
gists at so cents. Little book stomach troubles

Proceedings in Matter, of Ethelbert
Carroll MOrgan'a Estate

carroll MOrgan'S Estate.
Eleanora D. speer IN her own behalf and
by Emory Speer, her husband, has insti-
tuted proceedings in the Supreme Court OF
the District of Columbia against James
Mosher, Michael J. Colbert. trustees, and
others, by which 1t is Sought to have the
court construe the win of the late Ethelbert
Carroll Morgan, deceased. 1t Is also asked
that the defendants be ,restrained from pay
ing over certain bequests specified in the
will.
DR.. Morgan died May 5,y1S91 BY his will,
after making several charitable beuuests
some of which were to operate if the others
were not effective the testator directed that
the remainder of his estate go to his sisters.
Mrs. Eleanora D. Speer of Georgia and Mrs
Minnie Mosher of New York. The Gesire Is
to have the court decide as to which of the
charitable requests are effective.
The provisions in the will of a charitable
character ainclude bequest of $4,000 to
Georgetown University for the prosecution
Of research in the colonial history of Mary
land: 5000 for a chime Of bells, etc, for
some one Catholic church, to be designated
by the testator's mother, and If void, So
600 to be divided equally between St Vim
cents and ST. Joseph's Catholic orphan
asylums; 600 to maintain a scholarship
in Georgetown University, and S. 900 to
maintain scholarship in the University
of Georgetown. -
The complainant says that while she Is
willing and DESTROYS of making such rea-
sonable concessions as will do justice to the
general intent of the testator to devote a
portion of his estate to pious uses, she
charges that unless the will is construed by
the court in accordance with the recognized
rules of law applicable to the same, that
not only will the real intent Of the testator
be not carried out, but the interests of the
complainant and others interested will be
so tied up, embarrassed and beclouded, that
the estate will be of little benefit to any of
the parties or objects in contemplation of
the beneYolence Of the testator.

MR.. GAMEWELI,S LECTURE.
Thrilling Story OF Siege of Pekfn by
n Defender.

Thrilling Story of Siege of Pekin by
Defender.
A lecture was delivered last evening by
Rev. Frank D. Gameweu at the Metropoli-
tan NJ. E. Church, 4th and c streets, under
the auspices of the Women's Foreign Mis-
sionary Society. His narrative Of the siege
of Pekin, in which he was prominent, hav-
ing been in charge of the defenses of the
compound where the foreigners had taken
refuge, was most interesting. The survival
Of the foreigners the speaker regarded as
a miracle, and the only explanation, to his
mind. is that it was an answer to prayer.
II the Chinese had been willing TO pay the
price of a few lives, he said, and had
rushed the defenses the entire number Of
foreigners would have persisted.
In discussing the general question Of the
uprising Mr.. Gamewell said he had Fever
known any such a movement which cid not
originate with the official class.
