REMARKABLE SUCCESS
Of a New Catarrh Cure.

A large and constantly increasing mn
jority OF the American people are catarrh
sufferers, This is not entirely the result
Of our changeabe climate, but because
modern investigation has clearly proven
that many discusses known by other names,
are really catarrh. Formerly the name en-
tarrh was applied almost exclusively to the
common nasal catarrh, but the throat. stom-
ach, liver, bladder, Kidneys aud muesunes
are subject To catarrhal diseases as well
as the nasal passages
In fact wherever there Is mucous mem
brane there IS a feeding ground for ca
tarrh.
The usual remedies, lnhalers, sprays,
douches or powders, have been practically
failures, as far as anything more than
Temporary relief was concerned, because
they simply dry up the mucous secretions,
without having the remotest effect upon the
blood and liver, which are the real sources
Of catarrhal diseases.
II has been known for some years that
the radical cure Of catarfh could never come
from local applications, but from an In
ternal remedy, acting on the blood ana ex
pelling the catarrhal poison from the sys-

Death of Mr. Jackson.

Mr.. Elisha Jackson, an old and well
known citizen, died at the Alexandria
Hospital at 10 o'clock last night.
He leaves a widow but no children.
The deceased was in his 6Sth year.
He was son Of the late Robert Jackson
and worked with his father as a pump
maker during his early years. At the
outbreak of the civil war he became a
member of Company f, Seventeenth Vir-
ginia regiment and remained with that
command until the close of hOstilities.
Upon his return home he resumed his
calling and with his father continued 10
work at pumpmaking until the death OF
the latter, about twenty years ago. The
deceased was a member of Lee Camp OF
Confederate Veterans. He was OF a
pleasant nature and had many friends
and acquaintance. He had for long
time been a sufferer from chronic disease,
and with advancing years had been
unable to continuein active employment.

The Suspension of MIR. Smith.

As has been stated in the Gazette
Rev. nd Smith, ex-driver of the Hy
drauliOn hose wagon, was suspended
for ninety-nine years at a meeting o.
nineteen members of the company held
last Tuesday night. The suspended
member has received an official Motif
cation of the action of the company, the
cause assigned being the fact that he
aided in firing the Hydraulion engine al
the burning of the Southern Railway s
storeroOm several weeks ago, in viola
ton of a resolution previously adopted
by the company. Mr.. Smith worked
at the fire referred to after having been
ordered to do so by Fire Warden Sum-
mers, who was at the time acting as
Chief Engineer. Had he refused to do
so, he rendered himself liable to arrest
and the payment of fine. He was,
therefore. betwixt the devil and the
deep sea. Mayor Simpson today re-
ceiyed communication from the Hy-
draulion Company reciting all the cir
cumstauces in connection with the cleo
ton of Mr.. Julian Ballenger as driver
of the hose wagon notwithstanding the
fact that Mr.. George COgan had the en-
dorsement of the company for the posi-
ton, together with a number of alleged
reasons why Mr.. Ballenger should not
have been elected. The Mayor is asked
to depose Mr.. Ballenger for reasons urged
by the petitioners. TWAS earnestly hoped
that this vexed question would have
ceased to exist long before this, but,
like Banquo's ghost, it will not down.
While some claim that the Hydrauli0n
Company has grievance, equally as
many think the issue was sprung over
trifing matter and that the Fire War
dens acted through the best motives and
in a manner which they believed in the
line of public good. In the meantime
the mass of the people who are the
champions of neither party to the en-
broglio have long since tired Of 1t. The
names of the nineteen members, out OF
4 total of between sixty and seventy,
which composed the company, were
fl nished the Gazette yesterday
lint for several reasons they were
not p,yblished, the principal one being
that the Gazette it not disposed to be
the champion of either party to the dis
pute. preferring to act solely in the IN
terests of peace. 1t is hoped that those
who are still cndeavoring to fan the
diving embers into flame will deslst
and that no further attempts Will be
made to foist the ntuddle upon the
executive or legislative branches OF the
city government.
Mayor Simpson this afternoon sent
an answer to the company IS communlca-
ton. 1t was addressed to Mr.. W. w.
Ballenger, through whom the company
had sent the paper The Mayor answer
was to the effect that he had no power
to remove the driver of the hose wagon.
He could merely suspend him and then
only for negligence of duty, misconduct,
&c. Under present circumstances, he
said, he was not authorized to take
action.

Stranger in Bed.

On Monday night family living il
West End was considerably exercised
upon discovering that strange man was
in the house and in bed. 1t seems
that the mother of the family awoke
during the night and, to her alarm,
discovered that strange man was
lying on her right side and her
husband on the left. She awoke her
husband, but before he could intercept the
intruder the latter made his escape
through a window. On the same night,
it will be remembered, strange man
was found in bed with one of Mr.. Wal
ter Robertss children. 1t is believed
that he was the man who subsequently
visited the house referred to above, and
that he was not seeking plumber, but a
comfortable nights rest. Some enter
tain the idea that the nocturnal visits are
freaks of crazy man. Bedrooms in
West End, it is said, are being carefully
examined before people retire for the
night.
