“EVERY WORD TRUE!”

80 SAYS THE WRITER OF THAT FAMOUS LETTER. Me Reiterates Hl* Statements, Produces Additional Proof and clearly Defines Hl* Position. (New York Sun.] It would be difficult to measure the Interest and comment, not to say excitement. Which the published letter of Dr. R. A. Gunn, whl;h appeared in the papers yesterday. has occasioned. The prominence of the Doctor, and the unusual nature of the letter, have both tended to add interest to the subject, and maice it really the talk of the town. I called upon Dr. Gunn at his residence, No. 184 West Forty-savesth street, yesterday atterndbo. I found the reception room crowded, and it was only after an hour’s waiting that I succeeded in obtaining an interview. Dr. Gunn is a dfstl-gulshed-looklng man. and Impressed me at once by his manly bearing and air of sincerity. I took the •eat be courteously offered me. and said: “Are yon aware, Sector, of the commotion your letter has caused?” Dr. Gunn smiled and replied: “Things out of the ordinary usually oause comment. It is not a common thing for physicians to indorse and cordially recommend medicine* other than those in the Materia Medic a. History is full of Instances of scientists' who have indorsed discoveries they believe to be valuable, and have been denounced for so doing, and yet these same discoveries are blessing the world to-day. I hope I have the manhood and courage to be true to my convictions, and that is why I so openly and unhesitatingly Indorse Warner's Bate Cure as being the greatest of modern discoveries for the cure of diseases which'have baffled the highest skill of the medical profession. ” I was impressed with the earnestness of the Doctor, and saw that he meant every word that be' said. “How long have you known of this remedy. Doctor?” I asked. “Nearly ten years," he replied. «My attention was originally called to the Bate Cure by a serious case of Bright's disease, which was considered hopeless, and yet, much to my surprise, under its use the patient recovered. I have tried it in other case* since then constantly, and my original faith in its power has been confirmed. I have seen patients recover from inflammation of the bladder, gravel, and Bright’s disease when all other treatment had failed, and I have found it especially efficient in all female troubles.» “Can you specify any particular cases, Doctor?" I asked. “That is a delicate thing to do,” the Doctor replied; “but, gs I always keep a written record of my cases, I can accommodate you.” Thereupon the Doctor opened his desk and produced his record book. Turning over the leaves he said; “Here is a ease of a gentleman who was a great sufferer from Inflammation of the bladder of long standing. He, had consulted a number of physicians without benefit. When first consulted I myself tried the usual methods of treatment, but without success, and I finally advised him to try Warner’s Safe Cure. He felt better from the start, and in a few weeks was entirely cured.”

The Doctor turned a few pages further, and then said: “Here Is another case. It is that of a gentleman who had frequent attacks of renal calculi, which, as you know, is gravel forming in the kldneya He had never been able to prevent these formations, but after an unusually severe attack I recommended blm to try the Safe Cure, which he did, and, although it is three years since he took the remedy, he has never had an attack since.” ' The Doctor continued to turn the leaves of his book, and suddenly exclaimed: , “Here is a most remarkable case. It is that of a lady who had suffered for some time from Bright’s disease. She became enciente, and about the fourth month suddenly became blind, had convulsions, and finally fell into a state of coma, caused by uremic or kidney poison. Several physicians who saw her said she could not live, and in this view I fully concurred. As she' could still swallow I said, as a last resort, that they might try Warntr’s Safe Cure, They did so, and to the surprise of every one she recovered. 6he has since given birth to a living child, and is perfectly well.”

«Those are certainly most wonderful cases, Doctor,” I said, “and while I do not for a -moment question their authenticity I should consider it a great favor if you would give me their names. I think the Importance of the subject would fully Justify it.” “In the interest of other sufferers I think you are correct;” Dr. Gunn finally observed, after a moment's thought “Both the lady and her husband are so rejoiced, so grateful over her recovery, that I know she Is only too glad to have others hear of it she lady is Mrs. Eames. wife of the well-known costumer. She was not only restored but is In perfect health to-day.” I thanked the Doctor for his -courteous receptlqp, for the valuable Information imparted, and I feel assured that his generous snd humane nature will prevent him from feeling other than glad at seeing this interview published for the benefit of suffering humanity.

It Was an Aecident.

"Are you sure of that?" “Of course I am." “Thanks. That must have been the accident referred to." And the reporter dodged out safely.

BESTRIDE THE WHEEL.

CONGRESSMEN WHO ENJOY BICYCLE RIDING. ferry Simpson Hsi Become an Expert and Aim His Accomplishment Conspicuously Several Other Statesmen Who Take Exercise In That Way, Legislators as Cyclers,

THE newest fad among our national statesmen is the * Congressmen’s Bicycle Club, of which Jerry Simpson is President and Thomas B. Reed its g|| latest nursling, g|» writes a WashinggjS ton correspondent. Only full-fledged fjPgiCongressmen are to member.ship in it. August KrumuT'and reverend Sena- —■ , - tors and powerful MfjlC a bln et officers I {} {-have no show in it, l*' and were even Pres-

Went Harrison to apply humbly for admission, he would be peremptorily rejected, so exclusive is this unique organization, and so sharply does it draw the line against all but Congressmen. All the members are enthusiastic wheelmen, and several of them are exceedingly skillful riders. Among the most expert, besides Jerry Simpson himself, the head chief, are Congressmen Tom L. Johnson of the Twenty-first Ohio District, Joseph E. Washington of the Sixth Tennessee —a lateral desoendent of the immortal George Washington— John A. T. Hull of the Seventh lowa, Lewis Sperry of the First Connecticut, and William Springer of the Thirteenth and Owen Scott of the Fourteenth Illinois Districts. The idea of the club originated with a select little coterie of congressmen who ait near each other in the chamber of the House of Representatives. Henry George of New York, though not a congressman, may be held primarily reBponeible for it. When the genial, sockless ‘Sage of Medicine Lodge" left Kansas last spring and visited New York he fell in with the single-tax apostle, who in due tjme made him familiar with the pleasures of the wheeL Representative Johnson likewise recently eame under the spell of George’s influence, and he, too, became a convert to the bicycle craze. Representative Johnson happens to sit next to Representative Washington in the Bouse, and through his rapturous praises of bicycle riding, daily repeated, he soon Induoed the young Tennessean to tempt fate on the revolving wheel. Ex-Speaker Reed was also prevailed upon by Johnton’s eloquence to forego his scruples

and link his fortunes in sport with the budding organization. In this way the charmed circle, first formed but little over a month ago, has been gradually but steadily enlarged, until now it is gaining several new resruits every week, and promises eventually to embrace representatives from nearly every State in the Union. The (xpansive streets and avenues of Washington, paved with the finest asphalt and the smoothest of concrete blocks, afford Ideal facilities for bicycling, and the slub avails of these superior conditions to the fullest extent.

More than an ordinary amount of nerve and courage Is required of Congressmen from certain parts of the country In contemplating for themselves lueh a frivolous diversion as bicycling In this capital city of the nation, where the eyes of the entire public, so to speak, are constantly centered upon them. In.ieed, such a deep-seated prejudice exists in many communities against blcyoling, tennis playing and kindred mild forms of ornamental athletics that the riding Congressmen from those secrions deserve to be congratulated &n the grit they have displayed in joining the club. The members, while not seeking to conceal their connection with it, have not courted publicity on the subject or sought to be Interviewed as to their accomplishments on the wheel. Down In Kentucky a few rears ago a certain capitalist from the East, filled with enterprising Ideas of progress and invention, undertook to make the race for Congress In one of blue grass districts, using a bicycle of primitive pattern on his stumping tours from place to place. He announced to his prospective constituents that he believed in all sorts of Innovations and Improvements, and cited bicycles as an Illustration, prophesying that they would In a short time largely supersede the use of horses and mules as a mode of locomotion. The voters thereupon, as might be expected, grew frightened at the prospect of losing their livelihood in raising horses and mules and at the polls unanimously snowed him out of Bight under an avalanche of adverse votes. Times have changed somewhat since then, but in these unsettled days for statesmen the dear people still insist on knowing both the personal .and public careers, and even the sports, of their representatives in Congress. Congressman Johnson is the most versatile rider in the club, despite the fact that he is handicapped with fully 300 pounds of flesh. He is one of the most jovial men in the present House, with a ruddy, smooth-shaven face, curly black hair and rotund figure. Unlike Henry George, who prefers a light-running English machine, houses a strong wheel of standard American make, ballbearings and cushion tire. Notwithstanding his ponderous avoirdupois, he has mastered the difficult feat known as “the pedal mount,” and in addition is able to execute to perfection some of the most Intricate figures In fancy riding. So enthusiastic a friend of bicycling is he that he has taught not only his wife but his three little children to ride, and frequently takes his whole family out for an airing “on the,road.”

Congressman Jerry Simpson, on the other hand, cares nothing for speed or fancy figures, but finds an infinite amount of delight in cantering straight ahead at a moderate gait. He rides at any hour of the morning, afternoon, or evening; sometimes with his friend Hull of lowa or Johnson of Ohio, but oftenest alone, ‘in solitary meditation fancy free.* He turns the street oornert

warily, la the most leisurely manner 1 Bossible, and In general conduots himself ter&llyllke a philosopher on wheels.. He lives on “The Hill, - near the Capitol, and when the debates in the House hap-! pen to grow unbearably dull, as they frequently do, he slips over home, gets, out his ’cycle, and takes a quiet little spin by way of mental and physloal refreshment. Occasionally he meets other members of the club by prearrangement on the open plaza at the east front of the capital, when they all have a hapyy-go-lucky raee over the smooth asphalt. l Thon, after they have sufficiently enjoyed the keen air whistling about their ears, they return to the House in time to vote, depositing their wheels in convenient nooks and crypts on the basement floor. Chairman Springer, of Ways and Means, is an old hand at the wheel and is one of the pioneers among Congressmen in the use of the rapid vehicle. He early initiated his youngest son in the mysteries of riding. Unluckily his late illness has prevented him from* joining his oolleagues in their regular praotioe, but his heart has been with them all the time, and when he fully recovers his health he will make up for lost time., Representative Washington from the, outset displayed a marked degree of | pluck and energy in addressing nimself to the difficulties that always beset be-' ginners on the wheel. With the assiduous coaching of his friend Johnson, however, he has become one of the best! riders in the club. He uses a very light | machine and discards all the unnecessary! appliances. Ex-Speaker Reed, who has the repu-| tation of riding the biggest upright;

wheel In the State of Maine when at] home in Portland, is content here ip Washington with a low-seated “safety.” It is related authoritatively that when be first learned to ride in Maine he “dished” his wheel twlee, and broke the delicate attachments. He still has oo eversion to riding in the fleroe gaze of publloity which obtains in Washington,' but he nevertheless consents to a little run now and then in the less frequented rendezvous of the club. Representatives Sperry of Connecticut and Scott of Illinois oan be seen on, their wheels almost any bright morning now, bowling swiftly o vet the delights ul streets of the fashionable northwest. Mr. Sperry affects a wheel of home man-i ufacturo, while Mr. Scott is pleased with an Imported one. Several of the “very young” Congressmen from Massachusetts and elsewhere have an equal liking for both uprights and “safeties" and are 1 considered connoisseurs as to the best styles and makes. While the asphalt streets leave nothing to be desired for ease and comfort in riding, the club’s favorite trysting place is the magnificent driveway called the “White lot,” inclosing fifty acres of beautiful level park, between the Executive mansion and the Washington monument. Thither the Congressmen repair when the House adjourns at five o’clock In the afternoon, and enjoy themselves immensely, with comparative Immunity from observation and Interruption. The only drawoaok there is the fact that the occasional passage of a swell carriage or equestrian rider tends to unnerve the

World’s Fair Notes.

JaMaioa has i Teased its World’s Fair appropriation t” $26,000. One hundred tons of exhibits for the Exposition have already been collected and are awaiting shipment at Lima and Callao. An effort is being made to collect $25,000 with which to build the Exposition a headquarters for the Sunday schools of the United States. A company from the National Military Institute of Colombia, South America, wants tp attend the Exposition and camp on the’World's Fair grounds. The lofty stone monolith, whioh Wisconsin will ' exhibit at the Fair, will remain at JactSon Park permanently, the park commissioners bavins? given their consent. The monolith is 107 feet high and out from a solid block of stone. A circular has been issued by the Exposition authorities to all the railway passenger associations of the United States and individual roads, asking that a materially reduced rate be made by the railroads on the occasion of the dedicatory ceremonies next October. As an Illustration of the rapidity with which the work of erecting the Exposition buildings is being pushed at Jackson Park, it may be stated that on March 1 sketches were made for a building to serve as permanent accommodations for the Construction Bureau, the Columbian guards, emergency hospital central fire-alarm service, etc. The contract was let on April 2, and on April 30 the building was finished and occupied. The structure measures 200 by 300 feet.

The scene which the Expoeition grounds now afford, with most of the buildings nearing completion and the construction being pushed forward by more than 6,000 workmen, is accounted so interesting and wonderful that from 1,000 to 5,000 visitors a day willingly pay the admission fee of 25 cents to witness it. Before the abolition of the free pass system, the visitors often numbered as high as 15,000 or 20,000. The work of construction was interfered with, so that it was thought best to charge an admission and thus diminish the size of the crowd of sightseers and at the same time add to the financial resources of the Exposition.

THE HUMAN FAMILY

And Its Greatest Need. The human race as airhole U in great need of a good blood purifier. There are about £,400 disorders incident to the human frame, the large majority arising from the Impure or poisonous condition of the blood. Scrofula, a disease as old as antiquity, has been Inherited by generation after generatlon, and manifests Itself to-day virulent and virtually unchanged from Its ancient forms. If we are so fortunate as to escape hereditary impurities lu the blood, we may contract disease from the germs in the air we breathe, the food we eat, or the water wo drink. In Hood's Sarsaparilla is found Ot* medicine for all blood diseases. Its remarkable cures are Its loudest praise. No remedy has ever had so marked success, no medicine was ever accorded so groat public patronage. Bcrofula in its severest forms has yielded to its potent powers; blood poisoning and salt rheum and many other diseases have been permanently cured by it It is unquestionably the best Spring Medlclno and blood purifier.

A Negro’s Stratagem.

Tho real “bofo’-de-wah" negro wit Is seldom seen fjo.w, but this incident will show that he is not entirely gono. Sam, a very lazy gardener, was bending over a row of peas In a rather shady oorner of the garden, and was well pleased at his employer remaining Indoors. But when she came to give some orders, inspect the growing plants and put Sam to real work, he bethought himself of an expedient to get rid of her. Sniffing the air and looking around, he muttered: “Sho’s you bawn, dar’s er snako bln 'round here." Then, as she did not hoar him, he repeated his remark. Gathering her skirts, sho beat a hasty retreat, and from a safe distance asked him how he knew there was a snake around. “Oh, I smells 'emt I kin alius smell ’em when I cum whore dey’s bin.” This was enough for the lady, and she retreated to the houso. Looking out from the window of the house, she saw tho old negro holding his sides and laughing heartily at his own shrewdness. His plan worked, and ho had an easy time of it the rest of that day.—Atlanta Constitution.

' In the early day 3 of Spring, when tho temperature is liable to sudden changes—warm In the morning, wet and showery in the afternoon, cold at night—many people take cold. It settles on their kidneys and produces rheumatism, pain In the back, pleurisy, and pneumonia. Reid’s German Oouon and Kidney Cure will cure all of these maladies. It does it by j Inciting the kidneys to action, by stimulating the circulation so that the skin performs Its usual function,, and by aiding the digestion so that the stomach is able to throw off the morbid matter that would otherwise! clog and embarrass It. There is no other remedy on the market that accomplishes this work as well as Reid’s German Cough and Kidney Guru It contains no poison, nor-any deleterious substance, but can be taken without fear of danger.
