A PurSative Pleasure.

If you eyer took DeWitt's
Little Early Risers for bilious
ness or constipation you know
what a purgative pleasure is.
These famous little pills cleanse
the liver and rid the system of
all bile without producing un-
pleasant effects. They do not
grippe, sicken or weaken, but
give tone and strength to the
tissues and organs involved. w.

Raids were made upon the groceries
and drug stores. and long before the
usual business hour had come all sup
plies of mineral and other bottled waters
had disappeared Naturally hundreds Of
people were late at business.
In some sections the grocerymen, wise
in their generation, telephoned to the
wholesale stores and depots, and wagons
full Of bottled water were rushed into
the dryest districts. It was said at noon
that most of the supply of the bottled
water IN the northwest section Of the
city had been used DIP
To complicate matters one of the large
valves which was being put in place at
the corner Of Fourth and Streets
burst, and the emergency supply which
had been provided for by the engineers
was also lost.

city this morning was that beginning
at Florida Avenue and extending thence
through the Northwest out to the Dis

STATES LEGAL WEIGHT
OF A TON OF COAL
Corporation Counsel Duvall Says Any
thing Less Than 2,24o Pounds
Is Unlawful.

A. B. DuvAll, Corporation Counsel. has
submitted TO the District Commissioners
an opinion to the effect that ton of coal
in the District OF Columbia is 2,2f0
pounds. irrespective of the quality or
grade of the fuel. This opinion is based
upon the specific statement of all the
legislation on the subject, that Of the
legislative assembly and of Congress
alike. Moreover, the law specially directs
that coal sold TO the District Govern
ment shall be 2,240 pounds to the ton.
Mr.. Duvall rules dealer may sell
1000 pounds of coal if he desires TO do
SO. but such weight would not constitute
ton. and he would be liable to prosecu-
ton, if that amount were represented as
legal ton.
The matter was brought 10 the atten-
ton Of the Commissioners a few DAYS
ago by the Sealer of Weights and Meas
ures. who asked instructions especially
as to the proper weight Of a ton of can
mel coal.

TO his removal to Baltimore, he publish

killed on account of his rabid pro-Eng-

Such feeling did his published ut

afraid to inter it near Baltimore, for
fear the grave would be desecrated.
Consequently It was removed from the
city and sent to Georgetown. where it

FALL RIVER MILLS TALK
OF REDUCING WAGES
High Prices and Stagnant Trade
Causing UneaSineSS.

FALL RIVER, Mass. May I2.-The
continued rise in the price of raw cot
ton and the stagnation in the cloth
market, together with certain other I'M
Favorable features, are causing some IN
easiness among many OF the managers
of the forty manufacturing corporations
in this city. Mill owners in Rhode ISL
and and elsew here also are watching the
situation closely, but in no section has q
satisfactory remedy been decided upon.
Manufacturers assert that the wages.
as well as the price of cotton, are too
high. while the price OF cloth is too low.
Some Of the managers favor a general
reduction in wages, while others advo-
cate curtailment in production. but so
far while there has been little DISPOSE
ton among mill treasurers to act in
harmony, It is thought that unless con-
ditions show signs OF Improvement with
in the next month individual curtan-
ment viii be resorted to-
reduction, on the other hand, can be
brought about only by general agree
ment, and it is by no means sure the
treasurers would act together on this
question any more than on that OF cur
La1tment.
Manufacturers say the high price OF
cotton is not the only difficulty which
confronts them. They say the cotton
they are compelled TO buy is either
tinged, stained, or dirty, and they can
not hope TO store goods made from this
kind of staple at the high notch costs
now prevailing. Much of the cotton that
is being offered is little better than
high grade waste, but the brokers say
that prices for other grades are prohib-
tive, and there is little for the man.
ufacturers to choose from.
