The Ancient Order of Hibernians are an
tique in nothing lait their patriotic name.
In ail thiugsoise tboy are intensely modem,
as was fio pleadingly evidenced by their
entertainment last night at the Academy of
Music, entitled "An Evening in Ireland."
The theater was graced with a notably large
assemblage of the Fons and daughters of
the country which Dr. Stafford poetically
termed the "Mater Dolorosa of Nations."
Those who esteem these sons and daughters
were alsoliirgely represent edintheaudience.
The boxes were draped with the ttars
aud stripes, and the hanuors of tlie Emerald
Me. Tlte stage was decroated with a
chorus of about fitly Ringers, trained for
the celebration by Prof. Mania. District
PresideutP. T. Morau was the cliaarraanand
master of the ceremonies.
The guests of liouor were Rev. Dr. D. J.
Stafford and Prof T. J. Shaban, D. D.,
of tlie Catliolic TJmvorslty.
-HAIL COLUMBLA" SANG.
The "evening" was opened by a fine ren
dition by tie Chorus of "Hail Columbia,"
after which an introductory address was
delivered by President Moriin on the origin,
history and achievements of the order. He
dwelt with esieeial forco on tlie epirit of
fraternity of the organization and it broad
catholic principles of patriotism, and love
of country for their "home" on Uith Bides
of the Atlantic. Healeospokortiieerviccs
of the Irish m tbe war for thepreservation of
the Union, and tlie trust reposed In the
representative men of theracobythisuation.
He eulogized Phil Sheridan, and men
tioned tlie regiments composed bolely of
Irish which had done great service in the
late war, allof which was loudly applauded.
Dr. Shahs u addressed hiawelf to the
history or the Irish, and touched upon tbe
liberal attitude of the Catholic church to
all organizations and societies except
Uioae iiMintca! to the church, exemplifying
his statement by reference to the policy
of tlte church iu the thirteenth century,
when tlmt church ruled the world."
Dr. Shaban commended the purposes and
work of the Ancient Older ol Hibernians.
A very interesting part of this address was
that in which tbe speaker explained tlie
antiquity of tbe Ineh race, following their
migrations irom the Tower of Babel to the
Atlantic ocean. He said among otherthings
that so far as tbe evolution of races was
concerned the Irish had as many "long
tailed families" as any other nation.
DR. STAFFORD'S ADDRESS.
Tlie thoughts of Dr. Stafford's address
were suggested by the hymn. "The Harp
that Once" etc., which be recited with great
grace of elocution. He then developed
tbe story of tbe harp, the glory 't once
oeh'braxed, tbe loss of power rznd prestige
of tbe race, and drew a vivid ontiast
between the old regime and she Ireland of
tbe English.
Dr. Stafford paid high ",ribute to the
loyalty of the Irishman To 'lie iand he
adopts as his own, as is Bhown, '.e paid,
especially by tlie devotion of 'be race to
the free and glorious condl!io;w of Amer

EHERALD ISLE GLORIFIED
Thestomach is belter supplied with blood
vessels than any oilier organ of Uic body
except tlie brain. Hence the clo'.e rela
tion between the two. If the brain be
comes congested or irritated in any way
blood is drawn from the Momucli that
should be there to assist digestion. In
many cases of so-called nervous dyspepsia
it is not tlie stomach that is at fault, but
the great nerve center.
Dr. R. A. Walker's great and almostphc
nomenal success In tills disticssing dih
order lies for tbe mosl part in the fact that
be learns the cause of his patient's symp
toms, wlille other doctors tieat the symp
toms. Many people needlessly lose their lives
because they fall into the bands of phy
sicians whose work covers, of necessity,
"too large a field. A .doctor who has to
pull teeth, cut the baby's gums, and saw
wood enough to do over Sunday can uotbc
a nervologist, as that is a piofeusion by
ilself.
Dr. R A. Walker, of this cily, is one of
the lending fpocin lists of the world in the
line of nervous, brain, and special diseases.
Many come to him after other physicians
have f.illcdi as In tlie case of Philo H. Gar

, "Some time ago," said Mr. Garrett, "I
was taken Willi palpitation of the heart,
accompanied by dizziness. There was a
terrible burning .cubUtJuii oer my heart.
I became so weak and sick I thought I
should die. My doctor told me it was
tn-thing j?erious, and certainly his medi
cine did not help me. For months I con
tinued to suffer. My food distressed me;
I was troubled greatly -with gas, had se
vere pains, was almost too weak to walk,
and a horrible foreboding was pontiuually
over me. At last I went to Dr Walker,
the specialist, and I am satisfied that lie
fcaved my life My heart disease is cured,
and I can cat anything without distress.
Dizziness no longer troubles me, and I
am strong and cheerful. In fact, I am in
perfect health."

Complaints Against a PraotiGe of
the Government Commission.
FARMERS BUY ITS CATCH
Sells For Less Thau Eegular Fishermen-
Charge That tbo Proceeds Go Into the 1
Pockets cf Officials Chief Clerk Gill
Says thoThintr Has Been Done For Years
Honey Goes to Pay Seine Haulers.
The fishermen of the Potomac, and es
pecially those in the neighborhood of
Bryant's Point, are indignant at the United
States Fish Commission engaging in the
sale of fish. This 6alc by tlie commission
of the fish caught in its Bcinc at Bryant's
Point, it is charged, seriously impairs the
business of tbe local fishermen, reduces
their revenue, and is conducted, they say,
on the principle of underselling those
legitimately in the industry.
Mr T. D Ilayden, one of these ftahernien,
called at The Times office Saturday night;
and made a complaint concerning the
above points, on bis own behalf and that
of bis fellow-fishermen.
The specific charge of Mr. Haydeu is that
the United States Fisli Commission is en
gaged in tbe fish trade at Bryant's Point;
(bat Capt. L. Harron Is in charge there;
that the commission sells shad and herring I
in the Wasi'iisglon m irket and to the larni
era, belling in oneday 75,000 herring,
shad aud other fish, and realizing in a
season over S3, 000.
THREW AWAY THEIR FISH.
Mr Hayden said that ho and his brother
had many a time to throw away their fish,
as tbe market at Alexandria and Washing
ton was overstocked by the United States
Fish Commission. Also tbat the com
mission sells for $3 a thousand, while
the tishciiiicn should receive $4 n thou
sand. He said further tiiat Mr. Welch,
who attends to the sales for the commis
sion on tuoie. .-vaal li.ai he hanOIfi ail Uic
inou.y for tbe sale, and that lh- rv ipts
for the commission for 1892, 1893, were
between three and four thousand dollars.
t;apLHj.rron. he.sayi.haboeiiJMs ini' or
a week or more, catching more fish than any
of the fishermen, and if report be true, is
selling fish for lets money than any other'
fisherman." This complaint was referred
to Chief Clerk Gill, of the Fish Commission,
in ttie absence of Commissioner Macdonald
from the city.
CHIEF CLERK GILL'S STATEMENT.
Mr. Gill said that the statement that the
Commission sold the fish caught in the seine
was true. There was no secrecy, whatever,
in the transaction. Tlie fact that the
Commission was using a seiuc to catqti
shad had been known to Congress for years
and the subject was discussed when the
Commission was Investigated by a Scuate
committee in 1890-91.
The tales ot risli are made to pay the ex
penses of tlie seine-haulers, and for that
purpose only. If the fish were given
a way the fishermen would complain, and it
would be a very questionable policy to
throw them away.
Mr. Gill, without reference to the books,
says that the statements of Mr. Hayden
appear to be very much exaggerated.
Mr. Gill quoted fiom the testimony given
before the Senate Committee lo show that
in three consecutive years the revenues
from the sale of fish exceeded the ex
penses of the cine-haulers by about $40,
and that this was carried forward to bo
applied to the next year's expenses. Capt.
Harron testified that the average take
of tlieacine was from 700 to 1 ,000 shad.
FISHERMEN'S BEST CUSTOMERS.
Mr. Gill cited statistics to show that the
fchad taken in the river was only j'bout
one-seventh of the number used by the com
mission, aud that the rest was bought from
Hi'" tinermen and gillr.et xnen. the com
m.ss'oa bemg thus one of their bc&fc
customers.
By using its own seine the government can
.secure a million eggs for $22 or $23, while
a nullum egs Ojunt irum the gui.iei men
and other fls'im hi""3 cosLT he govern
ment from $80 to $85.
Mr. Gill fcaid that The Times could at
any time obtain .all tbe information It
wanted on I he subject at the office of the
commission. They scil their lish tumugh
a commission merchant of tins city. The
price obtained and aked from tbe farmers
and everybody else is merely the wholesale
price.

Boston'Todav.
Kicholson Easily Excusable For Hi3 Error3
In Saturday's , Game St Louis
Gots Out of Last Position.
Notwithstanding the fact tbat the Sen
ators have lost both of the games which
they have played in the race for tlie pen
nant, and are sbarlng with Cleveland the
honor of being tlie lariendera, the patrons of
tbe team, who aj-ftJWe followers of the
game, are not vjery-iidown-hcarted by the
jsho wing made withBoston.
The team is amtfch better one in many
respects than it1 whs last year. Crooks
as a second baEgtnoi'can give card3 and
spades to Ward, -wjiq covered that position
last year. Tbe orrojRi that Nicholson made
were entirely excusable. The infield at
National Park s fccmethmg horrible. It
was given out tbaUt had been much im
proved, but the boys fail to bte whoie it
comes in.
In a conversation with Joyce last night
he said that the boys are capable of put
ting up n much better article of ball than
they bad yet shown. . They were all some
what nervous ou Saturday, especially
Nicholson.
The game that the Bostons put up stamps
them as more than likely to be In the
firht flight at the finish. Irdeed, if their
first two games are a fair sample, they
appear to have the pennant well in hand.
It is very probable thntMallarky or Maul
will pitcli in to-day's game, and McGuiru
will likely go behind the bat.
Only two games were played yesterday.
St. Louis made a spurt and jumped up
from last position. The Clevelands must
liave been pretty son: after the game with
nil three of them lost to Cincinnati. This
boosts the latter team into firtt position.
The attendance at today's game will
likely lw considerably smaller than that
of Saturday, but there will be a big crowd
of looters on bond.
When the last inning has been played aud
the Wn&hlngtous ale returned winners,
oh, what a yell will go up aud bow those
who roasted the team will crawfish. Now
boys play ball.

INTELLIGENT PUBLIC OPINION award3
the honors to HYGIENIC ICE. Tho
water from which it is mode comes in
"snnngs"rom great depths, and scien
tists who have examined themsay as far
away as from the Blue Ridgo Mountains.
This remote sourco explains the absolute
freedom of tho water from every evi
dence ot surface influcuce. The out
nut from these so-called Federal Springs
President WASHINGTON sought to se
cure by purchase from their then owner
fortbe use of tho city which was tobear
bis honored namo. Iu this ho failed, but
af Icr tbo lapso of many years the aim of
the Father ot his Country and tbo God
father of the Capital City has been
achieved through tho instrumentality of
modern methods, by which in uniform
cubes of crystal ico this wonderful flow
of absoiutel y pure wator is placed at the
disnosal of every homo in the National
Camral.
THE PURITY AND SUPERIORITY 0FIIY
GIENIC ICE has been proved by the con
stant growth in patrouage of our best
people poonlo who have for themselves
rccocnizcd tho needa of securing the
best obtainable of an articlo so Important
in the family as its ico. For tho eick
room, for the table, and for ovory other
home purposo its tuso isurgedbymanyof
our best physicians. In tho process ot
'Resignation" of the Secretary
of the Island Track.
MANAGEMENT GETTING SCARED
They Realize That Their Queer Ways Are
Becoming Too WeU Known Legitimate
Bookmakers Withdrawing from tb.3
Stands Despair Wins a Race With An
other Boy TJp ana the Eooks Were "On."
The first thing heard as the crowd en
tered the grounds of .the Old Dominion
Jockey Club at Alexander Island Satur
day was tfa&t -Secretary Tompkins bad
handed in his resignation. Investigation
proved that the rumor was correct aud
with the last race Saturday night his of
ficial duties ceased.
The relations between the management
and Mr. Tompkins are friendly in every
way, they say, the resignation being
brought about by a desire on bis part to
give bis entire attention to his stable of
horses.
All this sounds well, but tbe truth of the
matter unquestionably is that those in
charge were made to realize by The Times
exposures that something must be done to
put a show of respectability on the place.
They know only loo well the injustice
that has been done other owners by per
mitting Mr. Tompkins to run his horses,
but they did not care to realize this wrong
until compelled to by the perfect torrent
of protest that has been brought forth
since The Times called attention to the
faet.
TRYING TO SQUARE THINGS.
They say a drowning man will catch at
a straw. President Jones and his as
sociates arc now in similar position.
They realize that their track has goue be
yond the limits of safety, but Secretary
Tompkins resigning wont help to win
friends for the track. It only serves to
snow how near the end really is. J
Tlie fact tbat Grand Prix, Bones, Bel
lagio, aud the three or four others that
sport the pink Jacket with the evergreen
clover, were occasionally dropped into
soft places, and were invariably well
treated both as to weight and position in
send off, is only one ot the many methods
of the place tbat is at variance with hon
esty on the part of those in charge.
If the place was to be cleaned of its
plague spots, the work would be of a
herculean order. It -would mean tbe
dropping of judges who have proved them
selves time' and again blind to the misdeeds
that, bave taken ptace under their very
noses.
It would mean a sweeping from the
grounds of the black-legs ot the turf that
now strut about and ply their trade
without fear of molestation.
It would mean the ordering from tbe ring
of the dozen or more pirates rlio, under
tlie guise ot bookmakers, vio with one
another to rob the public by bargaining
with owners and jockeys to have horses
stopped. It would mean tlie driving from
tlie track of tbe apologies for jockeys that
pull horses 1n the most bare-faced mannejj.
It would mean the closing of the gates
to the confidence men, the shell game
rollers, the touts aud the painted-faced
females who daily swarm to the place iu
droves.
Do this, President Jones, and,your track
might work its way back to the level of
decency, but to expect this, would be ex
pecting too much. Those that would have
1 lo be cast out, have made tho place.

well as absolute freedom from all dan

ber it is the ONLY distilled water ice

Tbey bave been received into the fold with
open arms, and it might lie dangerous to
hut tlie doors on them. It might bring
a leaking of family secrets that some people
might not care to have made public.
BOOKMAKERS ARE LEAVING.
The management has selected as a eoc
cessor to Secretary Tompkins Ralph Bay
ard, a well-know turf writer. Mr.
Bayard has the sympathy of all honest rac
ing men. Hia reputation among horse
men ishigh. As a wnter his articles have
been just and fearless. He baa given
credit where it was deserved, and lias
criticized where cnticwm was called for.
His engagement was a clever move on tbe
part of tbe Island management, but H. will
fail Its pu rpofce. So far as lies in hi power
things will be run "dead on the level," but
tbe cloak is not big enough to hide the
weakness of other spots.
Saturday when it came time for the books
to draw on. only fifteen slates were put np.
This is a falling oK of six or a difference
ot $600 in the "club's" profits for tbe day.
The faithful were on line, tlie absentees
being the better element of bookmakers
who have been at work trying to do a i
lcgitiuiate business. Seeing that those
around them did not work on similar lines,
they -very wisely decided to give np tbe J
attempt.
"Tbe Morgue," "The Embalmer," i
"The Undertaker," and the other fa miliar
faces were eagerly calling for the jwbiic to
step up and contribute to their bask rolls, i
but the response was not as hearty as usual, i
the betting being unusually light. t
The afternoon f urniehetl the regular num- I
bcrot bewildering exhibitions of form. The
crowd grumbled and growled but with the
officials everything was serene and lovely.
DEPENDS ON THE JOCKEY.
Not many days ago the "pet" jockey
of the administraation rode Despair in a
manner that called forth a protest from
every lover of f airplay. Saturday Despair i
had another boy up and he won a good race
in fast time. Little Jim who was an odds
on favorite failing to even get a place.
The books won heavily on the result.
Why then should any question be asked?
In tlie maiden race which was the third
event on the card the favorite was Judge
Onl. He was entered in tbe name of J. B.
Gleason who is supposed to represent M.
J.Daly. Judge Ohl was held at a short
price until the last few mmutebof the betting
when the odds began to climb, themoney at
the same time pouring In on Savant. The
latter mnp'in the name of the Hartford
stable, generally reputed to be another
nom-de-coursc for the Daly family.
Savant won the race aud Judge Ohl was
beaten off, hiB rider seeming to be entirely
content with his position. Of course all
this may have been legitimate but few
believed it to be and some of the comment
heard alter the race was hardly complimen
tary. It was stated yesterday that a representa
tive ot the Jockey Club is at Alexander
Island looking up tbe ownership of certain
horses believed to be the property of Orlando
Jones.
If the necessary evidence is round, Bandit
and Sue Kittie will not be allowed to run on
the legitimate tracks.
Tin AlexKnder Truck Charter.
From the American Grange Bulletin.
With genuine regret tbe Bulletin recently
called attention to tho sale of a grange
charter issued by tho Virginia legislature
"for tbe promotion of agr.cuiture," &c,
to a racing association and thus brought
disgrace to the firm namo of the grange.
The position of the Bulletin need, not be
misuuderstood by any, for it is simply
and emphatically a demand in bebair of
the good name of tho order, for either
the revoking of the charter as sold or such
change of title as shall perfectly sever
the name of the grange frdm it.
