SERGT. EARRIES RESCUED.
Was Held Prisoner by Filipinox for
Period OF S;N Weeks.

Informa ton has been received by General
George II. Harries that his brother Ser
geant Wlfrid l.. Harries, who is serving
with the United States army in the Philip
pines, and who mysteriously disappeared
several months ago, has been heard from,
and al last accounts, was alive and we'll
Sergeant Harries at the time of his disap-
pearance, October II last, was first sergeant
of Company X. under Capt Graham, 9th
Regiment, L. S. V. From that day until
the latter part of November, q period OF
six weeks, not a trace of him could be
ascertained. although the most diigent
search made. On the latter date a de-
tachment of his reg ment attacked a FIJI
pinO camp village, killed seventeen of the
rebels, took some prisoners, captured lot
cued two American soldiers, of whom Mr..
Harries was one. Upon his return to the
camp of his command he was transferred
to Company l and made first sergeant.
The information concerning Sergeant Har-
ries was sent by soldier from Elmira,
n. Y, who wrote the facts to his mother
and informed her that his reason for doing
so was that Sergeant Harres had brother
DR.. William Harries, in that city, and that
another brother was the commanding gem
eral Of the National Guard of the District
of Columbia. The mother gave the letter
to one of the papers of Elmira and the de-
tails as above related were printed. Ser
geant Harries served through the Spanish
Amer lean war in the 1st District of Column
bia Regiment, Colonel George H. Harries
commanding, and when that conflict ended
he enlisted in the regiment with which he
is now connected

Changes Surrested.

The attorney for the District, Mr.. A. B.
Duvall. has returned to the Commissioners
the draft of a bill drawn by DR.. VIM. C.
Woodward, the health officer. as a substi-
tute for House bill 1886, prohibiting bone or
fertilizing factories in the District. DR..
Woodward's proposed substitute measure
was published in The Star at the time of
submission to the Commissioners, and Mr..
Duvall has submitted substitutes for sec
lions 3 and therefor Referring to the
health officers proposed revocation of per-
mits, Mr.. Duvan says the doctors draft is
too indefinite, as no one would know when
the revocations took place, fact of much
Importance. The desired object is fully
accomplished, thinks the attorney, by au-
thorizing the Commissioners to issue per-
mits with restrictions as to place and use.
and to revoke any permit upon violation Of
any of its provisions.
Mr.. Duvalls modification of section Of
the health officers draft consists in the
omission of the clause imposing a penalty
for maintaining such establishment 80 as
to give rise to offensive smells or exhala-
tions, or to be otherwise hurtful or dan
gerous to the neighborhood. Aside from
the doubtful validity of this provision,
states Mr.. Duvall, it would seem to be in
consistent with the scope Of the act.

Result OF Hot Campaign in Printing
Pressmen's Union.

Result OF Hot Campaign in Printing
Pressmen's Union.
The annual election of officers of Wash
ington Printing Pressmen's Union, No. /,
which occurred Saturday evening last, at
Elks Hall, terminated one Of the most IN
teresting and hotly contested campaigns
in the history Of that organization. The
principal interest conferred in the contest
for the presidency, the fact that the an
nual convention of International Printing
Pressmen's Union is to be held here in
June next making the honor of particular
interest to the membership. The candidates
were George M. Ramsey and N. c..
Sprague.
The administration Of Mr.. Ramsey dur
ing the past year having been worthy of
approval and the fact that he was instru-
mental in bringing the convention to Wash
ington were too much Of a handicap for his
opponent, and he was reelected by a ma
jority Of thirty-three votes.
The successful candidates for the other
offices were: James o. Taylor. vice presi-
dent; Emil Peterson. secretary; w. H.
Weber, treasurer; Thos. A. Franklin. SER
geant- alarms; Chas. H. Schultz. David
Parker and Clarence e. Bright, members
of the executive committee.

distress after eating. poor appetite and loss Of
flesh; the heart became affected, causing palpita-
tion and slesplessness at night.
Il gave him powerful nerve tonics and blood
remedies, but to purpose. As an experiment
finally bought bO-cent package Of stusrts Dys-
pepsia Tablets at a 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 acidty or sour, watery ris-
inge. no bloating after meals. the appetite was
vigorous and he had gained between 10 and II
pounds In weight Of solid healthy flesh

John Horrigarr.

& - /. Is ! Is ~ &
John Horrigan, son of Mr.and Mrs
Daniel Horrigan, Of Wheeler, died
last Saturday, from the after effects
of pneumonia. Deceased was born
at Beverly, Mass, June 16, 1872 but
has made his home with his parents
in this county since 1874. He was 9
bright and intelligent young man,
having been educated in the Morris
schools and in the Minneapolis Cen
trail High School. For the past, two
years he has attended the College Of
Physicians and Surgeons at San
Francisco. While in Califor-
MIA, he had an attack OF the measels
which brought on his old lung
trouble, and this became the direct
cause of his death. He suffered a
relapse on Aug. 30, and from this he
never recovered. In their great loss,
the parents and relatives have the
sympathy of many sorrowing friends.
The funeral was held from the
Assumption church Monday, Father
Coebel officiating.
