\ gentleman who Stammrrcd from
childhood almost up In manhood gives
Il very simple remedy for the mlSior-
tune: Go into Il room where you Will be
quiet and alone, Get some book that
Will interest but not excite you and sit
down and read two hours aloud 10
yourself. keeping your teeth together.
DO this every two or three days or once
Il week if very tircsOmc, always taking
care to read slowly ana distinctly,
moving the lips, but not the teeth.
Then when cOnvcrSing with others try
to speak as slowly and distinctly as
possible ANA make up your mind that
you will not Stammcr.
WE'LL | tried this remedy, not having
much faith in it, ! must confess but
willing to do almost anything to cure
myself of such an annoying difficulty.
| read for two hours aloud with my
teeth together The first result was to
make my tongue and jaws aChe-that
is, while | was reading and the next
to make me feel as if something had
lunspnrd my talking apparatus, for |
could speak with less difficulty immc-
diatply. The change WAS so great that
every one who knew me remarked ii. l
repeated this remedy every five or six
days for IL month and then at longer
intervals until cured.

ALLEGED UNLICENSED BAR
John Fiddler Arrested at Hon
Brightwood Avenue

John Fiddler, a negro, who r, on
Brightwood Avenue, at the District
line, was arrested yesterday by the off,
GERS of the Tenth precinct station. on
the charge of conducting an unlicensed
bar.
Fiddler lives in the house, which fronts
on the District side, while the rear part
Of .he house and barn are in the State
of Maryland. Several attempts have been
made by the District as well as by the
State authorities to secure a cease
against Fiddler, but all have proved
futile
Yesterday Sergeants Brennerman and
Carlson headed a squad of about twenty
officers. which went to the place in the
patrol wagon. The house was surround
ed and Fiddler was placed under arrest.
The raid came in the nature of sur
prise, as il is understood there were
about twenty people in the place at the
time. These will be summoned as wit
nesses when the case comes to trial. In
addition to quantity OF beer and liquor
found on the place. it is stated that the
police found about a thousand ernpty
bottles and glasses. A preliminary hear
ing will probably be granted in the
Police Court this morning

prepared to go before the people al
let them decide In Oregon the Philip
pine policy was an issue in the Con-
gressional elections, and the two Re-
publicans elected were given larger ma
jorities than their predecessors ever
received
Tho bill is one of the best that could
be devised to meet the situation. and
is bound to effect permanent reforms.
1t provides adequate and comprehen-
sive land laws. Under it homesteads
of forty acres each are to be given
to natives, and they will have clear
title. The $50. 900 acres which the friars
hold-the best agricultural land on the
islands-is to be purchased and dis
posed of to those who now occupy it.

LIKELY TO PASS
TO AWAIT FALL TERM.
Trial of Prisoners Indicted for Murder
to Go Over.

None of the prisoners confined in the
District jail under indictment for muir
der will be called to trial before the
fall term of the Supreme Court of the
District 1t was the intention of
District Attorney Gould to call Forrest
Pendleton, colored, accused of the muir
der of Grafton Brown. also colored, to
trial today, but because OF the unavoid
able absence of Justice Anderson. the
hearing was of necessity postponed
The case of Pendleton was the only
one of the five murder cases which was
ready for trial at this term of court.
so they will naturally all go over to the
fall term.
Justice Barnard, presiding in Criminal
Court No. 2. will continue the business
of that branch of the Criminal Court
until June 81, when the jury trials will
be discontinued until after the summer
holidays.
From now until the jury trials are dis
continued, Justice Barnard will be occu-
pied in the consideration of what are
known as jail cases. 1t is expected that
before the close of the term all the
Jail cases will be tried.

LOAWF0P TrE DISTRICT
L4YBE SLDETRACKED

District by the United States may not
be acted on fayorably. disposition
has shown itself in the Appropriation
Committee during the past few days
to question the wisdom OF this amend
ment at the present session.
Those who object to it say that mas
much as the revenues of the District are
to be largely increased by the personal
tax law and the readjustmcnt of the
realty taxes, 1t will be well to wait until
one year at least has shown how much
this increase will be. and ii it will not
be sufficient to meet all the needs OF the
District.
1t is said also that some OF the men,
bers OF the Appropriation. Committee
have shown a disposition recently to
cut down appropriations in every pos
sible direction.

ATTORNEY GENERAL KNOX
ENTIRELY RECOVERED
Spends Evening at White House With
President Roosevelt and
Family.

Attorney General Knox, quite rocov-
cred from his recent indisposition, spent
a part of last evening at the White
House. His brief vacation at Old Point
Comfort. with tire consequent rest from
official cares. rapidly restored his i'm
paired strength. and he is now in his
usual good health.
Mr.. Knox's call was purely social.
He wanted to say goodby TO Mrs.
Roosevelt, who leaves on the Dolphin
this morning for oyster Bay. AS the
President goes away on Tuesday for his
West Point trip, Mr.. Knox took this OPP
portunity for enjoying a quiet evening
at the White House, and the subject of
politics, he said, was entirely eschewed.
