The question has probably been asked thousands of
t;1"?"., How can Brown's Iron Bitters cure everydoesn't.
Bat it does cure any disease
for which a reputable physician would prescribe IRON.
Physicians recognise Iron as the best restorative agent
known to the profession, and Inquiry of any leading
chemical firm will substantiate toe assertion that
there are more preparations of Iron than of any other
substanoe used in medicine. This shows conclusively
that Iron is acknowledged to be the most Important
fertor in successful medical practice. It Is. however, a
S'*??wt. that prior to the discovery of
ROWN*3 IRON BITTERS no perfectly satisfactory
iR^,SSSlM^2,nJ.hmd ever >)?n found. BROWN'B
IRON BITTERS doe* not injure the teeth, cause bead?c^^S?1?^JLceiS2nstlPlwJon?411
other Iron medicines
do BROWN'S iRON BITTERS cures Indigestion.
Biliousness, Weakness. Dyspepsia, Malaria, Chills
Md Fevew, Tired Feeling, General Debilitv/Pain in
the Side, Back or Limbs, Headache and Neuralgia?
Iron l? prescribed daily.
BROWN 8 IRON BITTERS, however, does not cure
in a minute. Like all other thorough medicines, it acts
slowly. When taken by mm the first symptom of
benefit is renewed energy. The muscles then become
firmer, the digestion improves, the bowels are active.
In women the eflfect is usuallv more rapid and marked.
Theeyes begin at once to brighten; the skin clears up;
healthy color comes to the cheeks; nervousness disappears:
functional derangements become regular, and if
a nursing mother, abundant sustenance is supplied
Remember Brown's Iron Bitters is the
ONLY Iron medicine that is not Injurious. Phyriciant
and Druggists recommend it.

Pittsburg, Murch 27.?Oil to-day was unsettled
and feverish. The market opened at 82%,
advanced to 8234,and broke heavily at 1 o'clock

Kane bought nedrb^l^OO,000 barrels for Philadelphia
parties yesterday, and their refusal to
take the oil off his hands to-day is said to have

characterized him as a sneak, liar, a thief,
and a cur. Mr. Littler, deathlv pale,
rushed across the aisle at Myers. The members
rose to their feet, and started In the direction of
the belligerent statesmen, the whole body veiling
like Comanches. Mr. Btillwell and (Jhief
Clerk Fisher shielded Myers and prevented
Mr. Littler from striking him.
Myers' friends quickly secured an adjournment
and staved off tbe resolutions to
expel. Which- were being written. Two such
resolutions are- prepared, however?one to be
introduced1 by S -awnOcrat and the other by a
republican?and. is no doubt that Mr.
Myers will We.xpeJlTO. He is correspondent
for the dndnnatftjEUjOttirer. It Is also said that
late last night Myers attempted suicide by taking
morphine, but failed In the attempt.

Vice- President Hendrloks' victory over Representative
Bynum. in the Indianapolis postoffice
oontest. Is talked of a great deal by Indlanlans.
In many cases Mr. Hendricks* action
Is subjected to advene criticism. There Is not
the utmost good feeling between the Vice President
and the Indiana delegation in Congress,
and his victory was won without their support.
Mr. Aouilla Jones, who got the postmastershlp,
to nearly seventy,?too old to take any active
part In politics, but Is one of the old school democ^f"-,H,?
u "?nlt? wealthy, and did not care
particularly about making the flght.lt is said,
except in the interest of his son, who wants to
be his assistant. In this respect bis victory to
not complete, for In order to win at all the son
had to bo sacrificed and the place of assistant
given to another. The statement that this was
the only appointment he has been interesting
himself in Is said to be incorrect, and the delegation
is not satisfied with hi* attitude with rotation
to the patronage. He is said to have
recommended someone for nearly every postoffice
in the state, without regard to the wishes
of the members, and Is visiting the department
In the interest of some, who are his personal
friends. He Is said to have signed a great many
petitions for office-seekers botn in and out of his
state, and takes much more interest in the
scramble than the members think to consistent
with the dignity of his office.
Mr. Towashend's View sf It.
he thinks the politicians cannot stand
out against the president and the people.
Representative Townshend.of Illlnols.thints
that the party will soon become reconciled to
Mr. Cleveland's civil service policy. He thinks
the President's action will meet with the approval
of the people, and that will soon bring
the whole party around to him. The President
seems to be pleasing everybody else, and
Mr. Townshend does not think the politicians
ean stand out against him. Bv the time Congress
meets they will become convinced ofthat.
ays, moreover, that be does not think
tbev have any right to expect changes to be
made any faster until Mr. Cleveland gets full
grasp of the situation.
Military Nominations.
a2f assistant adjutant general and an
assistant inspector general selected.
CoL Wm. J. Volkmar, of General Sheridan's
staff, has been selected for appointment as assist
ant adjutant general, and Ca.pt. Geo. H. Burton
as assistant inspector general. They
would have been nominated to-day
had the Senate not adjourned.
These appointments were made upon the records
of the officers, and no outside influence
had any weight. They are received with great
satisfaction by army officers generally who begin
to believe that promotion for merit will
hereafter be the rule.
The Blodgett Claim.
a new hove hade to-day by the plaintiffs.
To-day a new turn was taken In the Equity
Court In the case of L Blodgett, trustee, against
U. S. Grant et al. which It was noted in yesterday's
Star had been dismissed as to all but
three of the parties. To-day Robert Morrison,
as trustee, was made party complainant In
place of Blodgett, and leave was granted to file
a new bill, which was done. This bill asks the
appointment of a receiver to settle up the
affiiirs of the Washington Association and Insurance
company, and that a trustee he substituted
in the place of E B. Caldwell and his
unknown heirs, to carry into execution the
trust as directed by the court. It also asked
that an account be taken as to what is the share
of the plaintiff as trustee, of the assets of this
corporation. The court is further asked that
the trustee be required to convey the real estate '
to the receiver, according to the provtolons-of
the trust deed, and that he be directed to take
charge of the assets of the Washington Asso- "
elation and United States Insurance companv,
and dispose of the same on such terms ana cob- i
ditipns as will best subserve the Interest of the '
creditors, Ac.
Mr. Morrison denies that the plalntlfflj have
abandoned the Blodget claim or that compromises
have been made.

Anglophobia in New York.
Emory Storrs in the Chicago Herald.

that rather amused me. You know the Knlck- :
erbocker club there to the nursery of the anglom
an lac. You don't find anything at the Knlck
erbocker club but b. and s., as they call It, and
English literature. English newspapers are !
dally filed; footmen and tigers abound, and the 1
whole atmosphere of the place Is the one eve- '
glass order. A friend of mine, Capt. Bacon, was
coming up the street In rront of the club house .
when a young man whom he knew came out,' 1
"Why, Jack," he said, "what's the matter? Got i
your trousers rolled up and an umbrella spread.
M hy, It Is a bright day?what does it mean?"
"\es, dear boy. Sun here, you know; but 1

From the Boston Herald.
Incomprehensible as It may teem to people of
refined sensibilities, there are a few rtch women
who are willing to pay for newxpaper items deicriblng
their persons and costly toilets. At a
Washington reception a few days ago a lady
who observed one of the society correspondents
taking notes back of a portiere remarked to her;
"It must be sickening to a person of yonr natural
delicacy to describe these dresses and women
for the newspapers." "Yea," it U sickening,
the lady correapondent replied, "but I have my
living to earn, and am oompalled to swallow my
pride and tb* society dose at the same lima

fro? t dainty bag of pink satin hanging from
ber side-"a woman met me in the dresaingro0"1
g*ve me this money on the condition
that I should describe in detail ber rich toilet
and make e?p?elal mention or her handsome
personal appearance. It was distasteful to rue
to see sucn an exhibition of vulgarity but I
needed the money, and to-morrow she wlfl be In

I would find plenty of society material if I could
