With the testi mony yesterday afternoon of William It. King, Standard Oil agent in New York, the hearings in the Government's suit to dissolve the Standr.d Oil company, were concluded so far as this city is concerned. The next sesfion will bo held in Washington, January 23; testimony regarding alleged payment of rebates by the Pennsylvania railroad on oil shipments was ottered ye&terday. The government also nought to show by the testimony of King that the Standard had made a practice of maintaining supposedly independent companies in New England territory until such companies wore well established, when they would be taken over by ihe Standard. Jefferson Jutus. assistant to the controller of the Pennsylvania road, confirmed one of the exhibits in the ease, a contract between the Standard Oil company and the Pennsylvania, by which the oil company was to be paid conu.ii?nions of 1 per cent on all its oil shipments. The contract provided that no other shippers were to receivo commissions unless they made shipments qual to the Standard. Mr. Jutus testified that, no other company shipped Os much oil as the Standard. SIMPLE CURE FOR PILES.

ICE SKATING IS NOWJNDULGED IN Some Good Stretches Around Richmond. During the greater part of the week, the devotees of skating sport have been taking advantage of the first "rear' ice of the winter. While there Is fairly good skating at the Gleu. yet it is said that it will require more freezing weather to toughen the ice. The thawing through the day time is also hard on the surface of the ice, making it rough and of doubtful endurr.nce. So far most of the skating has been confined to th river, where several good "stretches" are to be found. PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS. PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to euro any case of Itching. Blind.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL. Few People Know How Useful It Is in Preserving Health and Beauty. Cost Nothing To Try. Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and purifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleans- ! ing purpose. I Charcoal is a remedy that the more I you take of it the better; it is not a ! drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities always present in the stomach and intestines and carries I them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or after eating onions and other odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic. It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another, but probably the best charcoal and the most for the money is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal, and other harmless antiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey. The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health, better complexion, sweeter breath nnd purer blood, and the beauty of it is 'that no possible harm can result, from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician, in speaking of the benefits of charcoal, says: "I advise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in the stomach and bowels, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some sense a patent preparation, yet I believe I get. more and better charcoal in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges than in any of the ordinary charcoal tablets."

FARMERS ARE UNLOADING STOCK Held Hogs for a Time Hoping For Higher Prices. Realizing that there is little possibility of an imm?diaie resumption of high prices in t;ie stock market, the farmers who nave been pretty generally holding their Iioits and cattle i;l hopes of higher figures are bjginning to unload. During the past week huge numbers of farmers in the neighborhood of Richmond have hauled in their hogs to the local mark.!. For sometime they have been holding their live Mock and as a result local butchers and shippeis were having their troubles in carrying on this line of business. No Shirker.

Food Abundance In Virginia In the Seventeenth Century. few countries of the world bare possessed so abundant and varied a supply of food as Virginia during the seventeenth century. This partly explains, writes P. A. Bruce in "Social Life In Virginia In the Seventeenth Century," the hospitable disposition of the people even in those early times. The herds of cattle, which ran almost wild, afforded an inexhaustible supply of milk, butter, cheese, veal and beef. Deer were shot in such numbers that people cared little for venison. So abundant were chickens that they were not included in the inventories of personal estates. No planter was so badly off that be could not have a fowl on his table at dinner. Vast flocks of wild ducks and geese frequented the rivers and bays and were looked on as the least expensive portion of the food which the Virginians had to procure. Fish of the most delicate and nourishing varieties were caught with hook or net. Oysters and shellfish could be scraped up by the bushel from the bottom of the nearest inlet or tidal stream. Apples, peaches, plums and figs grew in abundance. Not only were grapes cultivated, bnt excellent varieties grew wild through the forest. Such an abundance of -wild strawberries could be gathered that no attempt was made to raise the domestic berry. The watermelon flourished, and in hominy, the roasting ear and corn pone the Virginians possessed article of food of great excellence, which were entirely unknown to the people of the old world. There was produced en every plantation an extraordinary quantity of walnut?, chestnuts, hazelnuts and hickory nuts. Honey was obtainable in abundance, both from domestic hives and from hollow trees in the forest t he Case Altered. In France they call gray hair "a lit. tie dust frora the road of life." which Is certainly very poetical. But when you did "a little du.-t from the road of life" in yoor butter the poetry vanishes at onc-e. When we make a poor euess we realize that to err is human, but when we make a fDcl one we are convinced that foresight is a matter of iatelltctuaJ superiority.

SNEER AT OTHER NATIONS.
Germany, France and America, Say the Britons, Cannot Compare With Them In Good Form at Meals Use of the Knife, Fork, Spoon and Napkin. Let it be admitted that our army is a failure, has never wou a victory and never will; admitted that our navy would have diiiu-ulty in sweeping six combined great powers ofT the ea; admitted that we cannot net up to the French standard or trade up to the German or bustle up to the American or cheat up to the Greek. But vre cherish our little pride and prejudice. The Ktiirhshninn regards himself and is Rein-rally regarded as th" iest dressed man in the world. He also plumes himself ou having the best table manhits. To the Frenchman may le conceded the supremacy in the preparation of food, while the production of it owing to the decay of our aericnlture may be loft t. such outlying places as Siberia and Chicago. But when it comes to the eatinf of food the englishman asserts bis supremacy, for if the highest art be to conical art the highest etiquette of eating should le the triumphant pretense that one is not eating at all. And here the englishman wins. He can eat his way through a seven course meal quite unobtrusively. It was not always so. Lord Chesterfield, as I have been reminded by Mr. Philip Wellby's edition of the "Advice to His Son." sketches the awkward man who "holds hi knife, fork and spoon differently from other people, eats with his knife to the great danger of his mouth, picks his leeth with his fork and put his spoon, which has been in his throat twenty times, into the dishes again. If he Is to carve, he never hits the joint, but in his vain efforts to cut through the bone scatters the sauce in everybody's face. He generally d" ;s himself with soup and grease, though his napkin is commonly stuck through a buttonhole." That napkin is a test of table manners, and the nice conduct of the napkin caught the attention recently of the German emperor, who saw one of his guests tucking the napkin under a chin. "Do you want to be shaved?" was the imperial question. England's supremacy in the matter of soup lies in the spoon. An Englishman is taught to take soup from the side of the spoon. And he is the only man on earth who emerges from soup with the white shirt front of a blameless dinner and without the aid of a tucked napkin. He lays the napkin across his knees and uses it when necessary without ostentation. That discreet conduct of the knife I the Englishman's pride and prejudice st table. There is no nation which (in Its upper middle classes) reaches the English standard of the nice conduct of the knife, though we are assured that in the hlchest circles among ameers, shahs, tultans, dukes and millionairesthere is a beautiful uniformity of deportment. Our insular instinct is to make the knife as inconspicuous ns possible, for there is some suggestion of brutality in the slicing of bits of corpses that are doomed to keep our vile bodies alive. No such feeling restrains the German eater, and the French diner is scarcely less sensitive. The German who feeds in the average restaurant will shovel his food into his mouth with the blade of his knife and when in a difficulty will cram it down with the handle, nor has he the least scruple about depositing the rejected residue upon the floor. Moreover, with the continental eater the knife enters into conversation. It is retained In the gesticulating hand, it is raised imploringly to the ceiling, and heaven! It is brought into strange circles of argument. It is used to point the conclusion at the very breast of the fellow diner. When you see a man waving his knife at table, you may be sure he is an alien. "We wear no swords here," as Sir Lucius O'Trigger says, nor do we argue with knives at table. ' The English knife, with all its bloodthirsty suggestions, is reduced to the lowest and least obtrusive office. It is not even dug into the saltcellar, for England has reached the delicacy of salt spoons, and only in a Soho restaurant will she give you the real savor of the continent by providing saltcellars without spoons. You shove your knife into the salt and dream of Paris, Bohemia, the gypsy life in which "you dip your fingers in the pot." England has suppressed the knlf at table. The Englishman does not nse it for argument or menace or persuasion or even for the taking of salt. His table manners enjoin that the knife shall never be raised. The properly conducted knife at table never reaches forty-five degrees above the horizontal. Unfortunately the American goes a little too far in the desire to avoid the obtrusive use of the knife and takes refuge in obtrusive concealment. Many Americans will slice their meat with the knife, lay the knife by the side of the plate and pur the pieces into the mouth with the fork held in t.h ritn bnnd. Now. this is injustice to the knife, which has its modest function. London Chronicle. He Went. Boreleigh (at ll:4."i-Ah, Miss Critic, you have such a sweet, retiring disposition.
