WASHINGTON, WARREN COUNTY, N. J., THURSDAY, JULY 31, 1902. SUBSCRIPTION: $1.50 PER YEAR $1,300 IN .C. Young McMurtrie of Belvidcre Arrested in Newark. CHARGE' EMBEZZLEMENT Broailwny Man Gol Worthless Paper for His Good Produce. Commission House of J. I'. Jones & Co. Goes Up Alter a Short Career. Wuilo hi the net of buying tickets at the Newark station for Belvldere on Thuradny, Guorge K, McMurtrie, Jr. of Belvidere, and Chnrlea 0. Oaboruo of Newton were arrested by ofllcGra who boro warrants sworn ont by Michael B. Bowcra of Broadway and Michael McMahon, Jr., of Kvan, N, J. Mr. Bowera charged the young men with "skinning" him out of $10 and McMahon paid ho WJIR out §135 by reason of his dealings with thorn. McMuttrie and Oeborno had been con- ducting a cotnminalon ImaineBa under tho llrm uarao of James P. Jonea & Co. While tho prisoners were being ar- i-aigned on Friday morning a numbor of other farmers and New York com- mission merchants appeared In court mid complained that the prisoners owed them money nlao. Theaa people and tho amount of their claims were: S. H, & E. S. Frost, commission mer- chants, of 310 Washington streot, New York, $J2G; Weasels & Co., of 240 •Washington street, 5S17.-J2; Philip Hickoy, of Freehold, 531 35 and 515.72, the latter amount being for a protected check ho cashed for another person; John White, of Manatapen, Monmouth county, $25.20; Dennis McCarthy, of •Freehold, .*5'2.02, and Wni. P. Gerow, of the flrm of Smith & Hotdon, Waah- ington street, Now York, $3(3S. Mr. Bowora, who was ono of tho witnesses, statod that ho received a check from the flriu a few tinya boloce which wns not eigue'd. Ho returned this and it camo back a littlo later with tho Urm'a aiguattiro attached. Ito F ilhcecl it in his bank for collection and n due time it camo back marked "worthiest*." He came to Newark and ran into Mr. McMahon who had had a Bimilar experience. Thoy found the atare on Commerce street desorted and learnod that McMurtrie had just left for Bolvidere. They called at police headquarters and caught their man at the Pennsylvania station. The otber complainants said that they only want- ed their money and did not wish to make any trouble for the young men. When McMurtrlo was arrested moro than $1,300 in cash and checks was takon from his pockets. Among ether things found was also n letter from his father, in which ho instructed the young man to raioo about ?50 to meet tbo intoreBt on a $500 noto and not to Bond a horsoand wagon to hia place, but to send it to a farm. In anothor letter the father advisod the prisoner to transfer his Bharea in the Warren County National Bank to hia mother. ; McMurtrie and Ottbonia wore repre- sented by Frank M. McDermit, who in asking for the discharge of the prison- ers said : I aBk for the discharge of tho prisoners on tho ground that no evi- dence has been produced that they havo committed embezzlement. Tbore is no evidence that Oabbrne is In any way connected with the firm. Mr. Jones, the senior member of tho llrm, ia a reputable business man worth at least 550,000, and McMurtrie'a father is wealthy. We are ready to pay all claims when a proper demand is made, but we will nob bo .bulldozed into paying one dollar. This action is merely a acheme to get the police to collect their bills. Becauee tho llrm is temporarily embar- rassed does not signify that they aro criminals. This young man was pur- chasing a ticket to his home in Belvi- •dero when he was arrested. He was not trying to Bkip out. la it a crimo to buy a ticket for your home ?" "I am not sitting in this case as a trial judge, Mr. McDermit," said the judge, "ao I cannot tell what I would do in that case. Tho fact that these young, men were agoing away and'had iasued checks which proved to be worthless juatifles me in holding •them. There is no evidence against Oaborno that he was a member of tho firm, and il will only hold him as a witneas. McMurtrie I shall hold in $500 bail on each complaint." if. The attorney for the defendents se- cured bail for them and later the money and checks taken from McMur- trie was turned over to hia lawyer. An attachment; against them, how- ever, was served almost at once. McMurtrie Is a son of George K. McMurtrie, the well-known Belvldere miller, and ia well known in Warren county, Baston and other, seotlonB. For a time he was a student at Lafay- ette College but hia lively disposition was too much for the faculty and he was allowed to withdraw from hia class. He la about twenty-flve years of age. , . " The J. P. Jones under whose name the commission concern did business is a reaident of Delaware. It was said in Newark at the hearing that he had been 111 at his borne for somo weeks. Mr. Jones returned to Delaware quite a while ago and told his friends that he had sold out hia interest in J. P. Jones & 06. and it is the opinion of those who know him that Mr. Jones baa no connection with tho affair. -•-..::..•:,:•-• On-a_Siiiieloy Afternoon Thore is no plnco like Oranborry Lake, Thore la no plnco HKOuranuorry ua Spoclal excursions every Sunday dur i. the summer season for aevonty-fivo coi Boating, bathing, fishing, merry- rounds, largo pavilion ailordlng sheltei caae of rain, splendid restaurant florvir moals at reasonablo ooBt.

ON THEDIAMOND In a Battle Royal Washington Again Loses.to Phillipsburg. SCORE SEVEN TO TWO A Crowd of 2,000 People Witnesses Mosl Hxcitlng Game of the Season. Closetiefs of Hie flame Proves That the Two Teams arc About Evenly Matched. Nearly 2,000 people screamed, bawl- el, dnnced nnd yelled until they were blue In tho fiico at the exciting baseball game that took place horo hint Satur- day b&tvveen the foremost two county teams—Pbilllpgburg nnd Washington. Thn remilt was another victory for PliHHpsbiirK, but, nnlike the firat game of tHo soricB, tho viaitora this time found themselves- up against a team thut proved themselves moat worthy opponenta. For several inningo the score stood three to one, then four to two, nnd at the finish, after Fbillips- burg had scored three runs In the last inning, the visitors had tbe game by a score of seven to two. It was probably tho largest crowd that ever witnessed a ball game in Washington. In tho grand etand people were packed like sardinea, and all the way around the field spectators wore lined up like battalions of soldiers. The iiit-erttt and excitement were al- most unparalleled. Men took no notice of their wilted collars and women did not whimper when their white dresses were trodden upon. Notwithstanding tho great rivalry, the game passed off lu a most pleasant manner. There was not a kick of any consequence made by oithor taam during the game, and tho good-natured crowd put up with tbo anticB of Geager with laudable for- bearance. Umpire Eenr, who came here from Altentowu, fillod hia position with great credit, and on only two or three 'occasions were his decisions seriously questioned. There was some change made In tho make-np of the Washington team. McOann, formerly of Newton, went behind the bat and his catching was perfect and his throwing very accurate. Unfortunately it was up to him on two occasions to win tho game with tbe stick, but both times he failed dismally. Gerber, the old Boonton pitcher covered third because of Lippencott's illness, and ho pleased the spectators vory much by hia clever work. While at the bat in the first inning, he re- ceived a stnuning blow iu the head from a pitched ball and ho claims to have been dizzy from the effects during tbe remainder of tho game, thus ac- counting for liis two errors. It was plucky^ for him to continue in tho game, considering that ho was hit in almost the same apot where hia skull was trepanned a fow months ago, and which wound had not yet fairly healed. In right field for "Washington was stationed Mr. Richardson, a modest young man from tho NowYork Athle- tic Olub, brought here for his slugging capabilities. He slugged all right and did a let towards worrying young pitcher, Egner, who, after getting touched up for two slashing hits by Rlehardeon, decided to pitch them up ao wide that they couldn't be hit. Richardson also made a couple of fine catches. He ia tlie real thing. The game started badly for the Washington boys. After 'Cox had made a fine catch of Robert's deep line hit, Connolly reached first by" being bit iu the "slats." Then Shacklefcon pasted a two-bagger over the right field fence and Sweeney and JMcGoey followed with safe hits. This netted two runs. Phillipsburg got another in the second inning when Geager walked, stole second, went to third on ROBS'S error nnd came home on Egner's hit. No moro tallies wore'made by the visitors until the seventh inning when a hit, a sacrifice and another hit brought the total up to four. In the ninth with Shackleton on third and Sweeney on second, two men out, Sweeney ran Shackleton off the base. Munson had a tine opportunity to end the inning by wedging one of the two runners, but foolishly threw the ball to second base and Shackleton by fast sprinting crossed the plate abead of the ball. Then Bennett, surprising both himself and friends, landed a home ran over the right field wall and a total of three runs resulted that inning. Washington's runs came hard. There was nothing doing up to the fifth inning when. Ross, the first man np, placed a Bingle in lefc. McGeary sacrificed and Bennett threw the ball over the first baseman's head, per- mitting Rosa to score. In the seventh McGeary sent a slashing single against the left field fence, worked his way around on a series of outs and scored on Munson's hit. The bases were well fillod up several innings but the necessary hit needed to make runs was not forthcoming. The particular features of the game were tho sensational plays made by Cox and Roberts, the two shortstops, and the great fielding of Shackleton, McQoey and Richardson.

When Train Kan Them Down, Bennct Rescuei His SOD and Sacrificed Himself. Although he Raved the life of his ton- year-old son by heroin measures, JaB. Bennctc of Oxford loat hia own life on a I*high & Hudson River railroad bridgo near tho Pequeet furnace about 10 o'clock on Sutnrdny night. The two wero crossing the bridgo when they were run down by a Pcqueafc furnaoo engine. The fnbhev was caught- under tho^whoels and hia body was cut almost in twain. His last thought must have been the safety of hia aon, for with a mighty effort he pushed the boy off the bridge and thus saved the little fellow from as horrible a fate as his wn. Mr.Bennett, who was a laborer in the employ of the Empire Steel & Iron Co., went up to the Peqnest furnace early Saturday evening to call on some friends, accompanied by hie boy. They started for home about 9:45 and wevo walking down the Lehigh tracks whan the furnace engine pi .eh Igh lushing a car ahead of it came along. They did not hear the approaching locomotive until they were weli on the bridge crossing the PequeBt creek. It was too late to turn back and there was no hope of crossing the bridge in time. There was not even time to jump. The unfortunate man must have thought quickly for he gave the boy a push that sent him into the creek below, and then himself went down to be ground to death un- der the wheels. , Bennett's death must have have been instantaneous, at leaet he was dead when the body dropped almost at the son's feet beneath tho bridge. The trainmen placed the body in a car and took it to the furnace from which place the remains were removed to )is late home in Oxford. Bennett lost his wife about a year ago. Coroner Shrope waa called but did not deem an inquest necessary. THK ItBASON FOR IT. Tho Uohlein famous Icecream finds lu- atant favor when a new agency Is opened up In any locality.

Joshua S. Salmon. The Repub- licans made no contest. The present opponent of Mr. Flanagan is Congress- man Charles N.,Fowler of Union. It having been conceded on every hand that but one name would be presented to tho convention, precluded any contest and consequent excite- ment. There wus not, therefore, the usual big in flax of delegates tho night before the convention, ul hough a suf- ficient number of delegates p.ml on- lookers arrived ou ttis tifcernoon and evening trains Monduy to fill the hotels. The popular S:. Cloud became the head quarters arid the aceno of a bustling itucl goocl-ii^turcd throng.

"We havo met today to place in nomination a candidate for representa- tive in Congress, and it is possible for us to make a nomination that will in- oure victory in November. "With that end in view, we are will- ing to forget all paat differences and work in unify for the success of those principles so dear to the American people of which the Democratic party ia the true exponent. "Let us make the first convection of om* new district a memorable ono by decisive action, open discussion of policies and principles, and a clear presentation cf our political belief without fear or favor, and leave tho re- coursing music from the front pit^zt. An air of party confidence regarding the political outlook was everywhere manifest, and the chances of Mr. Flanagan's election seemed to be re-, gardea as most excellent by everyone who was heard to exprees an opinion., The very fine music at the New 1 Windsor not only attracted many delegates to its qnitt and commodious precinctg, but numerous townspeople aB well. Here West's orchestra of Phillipsburg discoursed music. Late in the evening the eating houses ex- perienced a rush that taxed their (sources. Conspicuous among the evening gathering were former Congressman John T. Dunn and Editor St. John of Elizabeth; ex-Mayors E. A. Quayle and Eugene V.'Burke, and Wm, R.~ Oooke and Dr. H. B". Andrew of Mor- riatowu; M. Lewis Brower and Irving E. Salmon of Boontou, County Coun- sellor Alexander C. Young of Hudson, and CongresBman-elect Flanagan. The north-bound train at 10:10 Tues- day morning brought the larger, part of the^MorriB delegation, which WM met at the Btation by the Independence Cornet Band and escorted down town. The Union delegation did not arrive uutil nearly noon. There were nearly 100 in the party, a'bd they were an unusually 0ne looking body of men, They-presented a splendid appearance as they paraded down the broad ave- hdd b th bd f i y para _ .__ nne headed by the band of musio. The.v Morris and Warren delegates held their caucuses at about 11 o'clock, when officers were chosen and mem- bers of committees named. Warren again elected Senator John- itou Cornish chairman, and Edward W. Sharps of Oxford waa made sec- retary.' John Clark Bowera of 'Wash- ington, who is said to be the oldest living Democrat in the county, was choaeu one of the vice-presidenta of the convention, Mr. Bowers IB S7 years of age and,has voted at 17 presi- dential oleotions.

The members of tbe various com- mittees were then handed in. The organization having been qnickly and quietly eflected, and the hour being late, there was an adjournment' for J inuer. ... It was about 2:30 o'clock when the convention resumed its labors. The first business was the adoption of the report of the com mi ttse on per- manent organization. This committee recommended that the temporary or- ganization be made permanent. The body readily agreed. Chairman John Moody then thanked the committee for the honor conferred audproceeded to outline in a forceful manner the issues of the campaign. He sooke of the rank partisanship of the Republican party as a whole and dwelt upon the great difference be- tween the Republican party of today— the party of trusts and monopolies and high tariffs—and that of tho party of Jefferson—the patty that represented the citizen and wage earner. Ho apoke ofthe trnsta ofthe Morgans, the Rock- efellers and the Fowlera. He de- nounced the dominant policies of the Republican government in relation to their disinterestedness regarding the wage earners' welfare and to their sel- flah motives in affairs pertaining to Cuba and the Philippines. lie fspoke of the harmonious feeling which was bonnd to be perpetuated among the Democrats of Warron, Morris and Un- ion counties—the new Fifth Congres- sional District— and said he felt assured iu hiB own mind ; 'that the District, upon its first test the coming fall, would elect a Democratic representa- tive. Hia remarks were frequently ap- plauded. By a, unanimous vote, tho report of the committee on rules wns accepted, They advised tbe adoption by the new Fifth District of the rules which had given satisfaction for over a quarter of a century in the'old Fourth District. The report of tho committee on res- olutions waa presented by Mr. Stryker, which was enthusiastically adopted.

Mishap Results In a Broken Shoulder and Fractured Ribs for Miss Dunn. An accident which seldom if ever bad a counterpmt in the bfetory ofthe county occurred at the Imlaydale mill on Thursday of lost week, and aa a re* milt MiflR Mary Pnnn lies seriously hurt and her father, Jticob Dunn, will feel tho effecto of his injuries for a long time. The father and daughter are well known in the Now Hampton vic- inity where they roBitie, and are lead- ing members of tho Mueconotcong Val- ley PreBbyterian church. The congregation held ita an* nual Harvest Home on tbe church groundB the day previous, and Thurs- day morning Mr. Dunn and his daugh- ter started to drive from their home to the scene of the late festivities to assist in cleaning up. There were a couple of bags of corn in the barn which ifc waa their intention to have ground into meal, and on the way to the cbnrch they stopped at tbe Imlaydale mill and turned these over to tbe miller, War* ren Beatty. In doing this they drove up directly in fr-ut of the mill door. From the roof of tbe building hung tbe rope used in hoisting and lowering grain nnd its product?, and it was due to this rope that tbe accident happen- ed, Mr, Dunn bad unloaded his corn and had started to drive away, all un- couscious of the fatt that the rope had caught in the brake guard on the side of his wagon. There Ia something of a hill as one leavea the mill and the horses started down this incline at rather a lively gait. The rope held fast and waa dragged along until it had been pulled Us length, when in the twinkling of an eye tbe wagon waa jerked about and turned completely over. The two occupants were buried beneath ita weight. The horaeB, strange to eay, stood perfectly etlU after the occurrence and thereby no doubt sav- ing the father and daughter from hor- rible deaths. , Tho mill men, bearing the commo- tion, hurried out and quickly rescued the unfortunates from their perilous positions. Miss Dunn was unconscions and her father was in almost the same condition. At first it was believed ho was fatally injured, but after both had been carried into tho home of Wm. Miller nearbv,he revived and Baid that outside of a severe pain in bis back he - felt all right. His daughter, however, did not recover from the shock so soon and when Dr. Howard Servis reached her bedside, an hour later, her condi- tion was rather alarming to those who had gathered at the house. An exami- nation rovealerl the fact that three ribs had been broken and the collar-bone had been fractured. L* tor in the day Mr. Dunu and his daughter wero removed to their home whero tboy have since been unable to leave their beda. The former is im- proving nicely, but the daughter, who is a frail woman, weighing probably not more than ninety pounds, remains ia a critical condition. It is thought, however, thnt she is not fatally injured and that in duo time she will recover. The lieat Way to" Raise Beet3, A German, a Yankee nnd an Irishman were discusbiug the best way to raise beets. Aa the argument waxed warm the Ger- man eaid, "Der best vay to make der beet grow gut, iat to gib him,:bloaty freah air and vntar- mit just a liddle suu," The Yankee insisted that,, "It was most im- portant to constantly manipulate the hoe around thoroots of the festive beet and pick tho bugs every ten minutes." Tho .Irishman couldn't staud this weighty dis- custion any longer BO spoke up with the true wit of old Erin. "I'll toll ycz do boat and surest way to reze de beet quick—grab a hold of de top.and pull like de divil." They all differed, you see, In this matter, but when they got to talking about Woet- awD, all three agreed that it was tho beat investment they had ever seen and that it BEET the Dutch, the Yankee and the Irish how such large Iota could be sold so cheaply.

Hxcitlng Game of the Season.

Closetiefs of Hie flame Proves That the TwoTeams arc About Evenly Matched.

Nearly 2,000 people screamed, bawl-el, dnnced nnd yelled until they were

blue In tho fiico at the exciting baseballgame that took place horo hint Satur-day b&tvveen the foremost two countyteams—Pbilllpgburg nnd Washington.Thn remilt was another victory forPliHHpsbiirK, but, nnlike the firat gameof tHo soricB, tho viaitora this timefound themselves- up against a teamthut proved themselves moat worthyopponenta. For several inningo thescore stood three to one, then four totwo, nnd at the finish, after Fbillips-burg had scored three runs In the lastinning, the visitors had tbe game by ascore of seven to two.

It was probably tho largest crowdthat ever witnessed a ball game inWashington. In tho grand etandpeople were packed like sardinea, andall the way around the field spectatorswore lined up like battalions of soldiers.The iiit-erttt and excitement were al-most unparalleled. Men took no noticeof their wilted collars and women didnot whimper when their white dresseswere trodden upon. Notwithstandingtho great rivalry, the game passed offlu a most pleasant manner. Therewas not a kick of any consequence madeby oithor taam during the game, andtho good-natured crowd put up withtbo anticB of Geager with laudable for-bearance. Umpire Eenr, who camehere from Altentowu, fillod hia positionwith great credit, and on only two orthree 'occasions were his decisionsseriously questioned.

There was some change made In thomake-np of the Washington team.McOann, formerly of Newton, wentbehind the bat and his catching wasperfect and his throwing very accurate.Unfortunately it was up to him on twooccasions to win tho game with tbestick, but both times he failed dismally.Gerber, the old Boonton pitchercovered third because of Lippencott'sillness, and ho pleased the spectatorsvory much by hia clever work. Whileat the bat in the first inning, he re-ceived a stnuning blow iu the headfrom a pitched ball and ho claims tohave been dizzy from the effects duringtbe remainder of tho game, thus ac-counting for liis two errors. It wasplucky^ for him to continue in thogame, considering that ho was hit inalmost the same apot where hia skullwas trepanned a fow months ago, andwhich wound had not yet fairly healed.In right field for "Washington wasstationed Mr. Richardson, a modestyoung man from tho Now York Athle-tic Olub, brought here for his sluggingcapabilities. He slugged all right anddid a let towards worrying youngpitcher, Egner, who, after gettingtouched up for two slashing hits byRlehardeon, decided to pitch them upao wide that they couldn't be hit.Richardson also made a couple of finecatches. He ia tlie real thing.

The game started badly for theWashington boys. After 'Cox hadmade a fine catch of Robert's deep linehit, Connolly reached first by" being bitiu the "slats." Then Shacklefcon pasteda two-bagger over the right field fenceand Sweeney and JMcGoey followedwith safe hits. This netted two runs.Phillipsburg got another in the secondinning when Geager walked, stolesecond, went to third on ROBS'S errornnd came home on Egner's hit. Nomoro tallies wore'made by the visitorsuntil the seventh inning when a hit, asacrifice and another hit brought thetotal up to four. In the ninth withShackleton on third and Sweeney onsecond, two men out, Sweeney ranShackleton off the base. Munson hada tine opportunity to end the inning bywedging one of the two runners, butfoolishly threw the ball to second baseand Shackleton by fast sprintingcrossed the plate abead of the ball.Then Bennett, surprising both himselfand friends, landed a home ran overthe right field wall and a total of threeruns resulted that inning.

Washington's runs came hard.There was nothing doing up to thefifth inning when. Ross, the first mannp, placed a Bingle in lefc. McGearysacrificed and Bennett threw the ballover the first baseman's head, per-mitting Rosa to score. In the seventhMcGeary sent a slashing single againstthe left field fence, worked his wayaround on a series of outs and scoredon Munson's hit. The bases were wellfillod up several innings but thenecessary hit needed to make runs wasnot forthcoming.

The particular features of the gamewere tho sensational plays made byCox and Roberts, the two shortstops,and the great fielding of Shackleton,McQoey and Richardson.

His last thought must havebeen the safety of hia aon, forwith a mighty effort he pushed the boyoff the bridge and thus saved the littlefellow from as horrible a fate as hiswn.Mr .Bennett, who was a laborer in

the employ of the Empire Steel & IronCo., went up to the Peqnest furnaceearly Saturday evening to call on somefriends, accompanied by hie boy. Theystarted for home about 9:45 and wevowalking down the Lehigh tracks whanthe furnace engine pi

of it came along. They did not hearthe approaching locomotive until theywere weli on the bridge crossing thePequeBt creek. It was too late to turnback and there was no hope of crossingthe bridge in time. There was noteven time to jump. The unfortunateman must have thought quickly for hegave the boy a push that sent him intothe creek below, and then himselfwent down to be ground to death un-der the wheels. ,

Bennett's death must have have beeninstantaneous, at leaet he was deadwhen the body dropped almost at theson's feet beneath tho bridge. Thetrainmen placed the body in a car andtook it to the furnace from whichplace the remains were removed to)is late home in Oxford. Bennett lost

his wife about a year ago. CoronerShrope waa called but did not deem aninquest necessary.

Odd Accident to Jacob Dunn at^ithe Imlaydale Mill.

DAUGHTER BADLY HURTVehicle Was Caught By the Big Hook on

the Mill Rope and Overturned.

Mishap Results In a Broken Shoulder andFractured Ribs for Miss Dunn.

An accident which seldom if everbad a counterpmt in the bfetory ofthecounty occurred at the Imlaydale millon Thursday of lost week, and aa a re*milt MiflR Mary Pnnn lies seriously hurtand her father, Jticob Dunn, will feeltho effecto of his injuries for a longtime. The father and daughter arewell known in the Now Hampton vic-inity where they roBitie, and are lead-ing members of tho Mueconotcong Val-ley PreBbyterian church.

The congregation held ita an*nual Harvest Home on tbe churchgroundB the day previous, and Thurs-day morning Mr. Dunn and his daugh-ter started to drive from their home tothe scene of the late festivities to assistin cleaning up. There were a coupleof bags of corn in the barn which ifc waatheir intention to have ground intomeal, and on the way to the cbnrchthey stopped at tbe Imlaydale mill andturned these over to tbe miller, War*ren Beatty. In doing this they droveup directly in fr-ut of the mill door.From the roof of tbe building hung tberope used in hoisting and loweringgrain nnd its product?, and it was dueto this rope that tbe accident happen-ed, Mr, Dunn bad unloaded his cornand had started to drive away, all un-couscious of the fatt that the rope hadcaught in the brake guard on the sideof his wagon. There Ia something of ahill as one leavea the mill and thehorses started down this incline atrather a lively gait. The rope heldfast and waa dragged along until ithad been pulled Us length, when inthe twinkling of an eye tbe wagon waajerked about and turned completelyover. The two occupants were buriedbeneath ita weight. The horaeB, strangeto eay, stood perfectly etlU after theoccurrence and thereby no doubt sav-ing the father and daughter from hor-rible deaths. • ,

Tho mill men, bearing the commo-tion, hurried out and quickly rescuedthe unfortunates from their perilouspositions. Miss Dunn was unconscionsand her father was in almost the samecondition. At first it was believed howas fatally injured, but after both hadbeen carried into tho home of Wm.Miller nearbv,he revived and Baid thatoutside of a severe pain in bis back he -felt all right. His daughter, however,did not recover from the shock so soonand when Dr. Howard Servis reachedher bedside, an hour later, her condi-tion was rather alarming to those whohad gathered at the house. An exami-nation rovealerl the fact that three ribshad been broken and the collar-bonehad been fractured.

L* tor in the day Mr. Dunu and hisdaughter wero removed to their homewhero tboy have since been unable toleave their beda. The former is im-proving nicely, but the daughter, whois a frail woman, weighing probablynot more than ninety pounds, remainsia a critical condition. It is thought,however, thnt she is not fatally injuredand that in duo time she will recover.

The lieat Way to" Raise Beet3,A German, a Yankee nnd an Irishman

were discusbiug the best way to raise beets.Aa the argument waxed warm the Ger-man eaid, "Der best vay to make der beetgrow gut, iat to gib him ,:bloaty freah airand vntar- mit just a liddle suu," TheYankee insisted that,, "It was most im-portant to constantly manipulate the hoearound tho roots of the festive beet andpick tho bugs every ten minutes." Tho.Irishman couldn't staud this weighty dis-custion any longer BO spoke up with thetrue wit of old Erin. "I'll toll ycz do boatand surest way to reze de beet quick—graba hold of de top.and pull like de divil."They all differed, you see, In this matter,but when they got to talking about Woet-awD, all three agreed that it was tho beatinvestment they had ever seen and that itBEET the Dutch, the Yankee and the Irishhow such large Iota could be sold socheaply.

THAN AMY (OTHER WASHINGTON DEALER.There are several .good-reasons. These we have been stating in our

AUTOMATIC OILSTOVESwe have seen nothing to equal them, and are selling more this year

than ever.

We have them in Two Sizes: 2 Holes, jSS.oo; 3 Holes, gio. -These stoves are much more economical than coal stoves, and

safer than gasoline and more economical also. You use fuel onlywhen you are cooking or baking; you barely notice the heat whenthe stove is burning and are entirely rid of it when through, withyour kitcheui work. Let us send one on £dal. \\

Aa foreshadowed in the STAR of lastweek, the members of the boroughcouncil accompanied by Mayor Johns-ton, Vice President Robert Petty of ithe Washington National Bank andtwo representatives of the local press,viBlted EaBtern Pennsylvania-on Mon-day and saw the trolley as it really ex-ists in Easton, tbe city of hills, and Inthe pretty little Dntcta villages that -dotthe fertile fields of Northamptoncounty. The whole party enjoyed amoat pleasant oatin:—*-'—"-• ' - *of information andthe universal opinion that the HayBrothers are about tbo toest pair of all'round good fellows that ever got Intothe railroad business. It was a daylone to be remembered.

When the roll was called at theLackawanna's Washington station onMonday morning -only 'CouncilmanStevens was missing. All the otherswere there and determined to ' 'as much oat of the day aspOBslEle. Atthe Phillipsburg station Mr. T. A. H.Hay was awaiting the party and withoutdelay hustled them Into a OLehigh Val-ley Traction 'Company's trolley car.From then until 11.30 a. m. the boyswere kept on the .-Jump and Mr, Pettywas kept busy -paying fares for thocrowd. '

Boring the morning about nineteenof the twenty-three miles of the Johns-ton Ryatem in Easton and PhilHpsbnrgwere covered Ett a coab of eight 'Qve-oentfarea for each member of the party.-Stops were made at various pointswhere the privilege of riding any far-ther on A single fare expired and fitsuch places an inspection was made ofthe tracks and cars. A considerabletime was spent at Paxinoaa'Inn on topof the mountain of the same name.There is usually a fine view from thishotel but on this day the air was rathermisty and the >panorama was not nearso distinct as>it generally is.

Atll.45 the party was joined by Mr,

Ing to the company. It Is ono of thoneatest best arranged and equippedthatuista In tho State. All tho ma*cbinery is in da pi lea to. In caao of abreakdown in any ono machine, thootbercan be star tea In a second. ThereIs power enough thoro to ran tho carson to Ban gor and possibly Stronds-burg, whoro It is propoaoa shortly toextend the line. Toe rights of way toBan go r havo all been secured, It wasstated. Tbo power houeo as well asthe car barns half a mile farther alongare built of blue stone and are reallyartistic.

One tbo last stops made was at Bosh*kill Park, owned by tbo Hay Brotbors.It Is a splendid picnic island In theBuahkill creek and la equipped through*out with electric lights. A large danc-ing ball has boon erected and an elec-tric merry-go-round has recently beenput In.

At 4 30 Eaeton was reached and allagreed that It had boon a day wellspent Tho Messrs. Hay had convincedthe council that they were builders andnot paper promoters. They bad shownthe product of their brains and moneyand left no doubt of their serious in-tention to build the New Jersey eyntern If given the chance.

Burglars Active Again.After several months of Inactivit

burglars renewed operations in Wasingtn on Sturda i h t iu g a r renewed operations ington on Saturday night,h r g h tb h f J h L

y,h-

ngton on Saturdy night, goingthrough tbe home of John L. Higginson Youmans avenue. They got verylittle for their trouble but they woulddonbtless have gotten away with con-siderable plunder bad they not beenfrightened off by Mrs. Higgins, who, ihearing flUBpicIous noises, got out ofbed to make an investigation and thusprobably made sufficient noise to causethem to quickly leave.

The burglars eeenred an entrance toh b i i d ithe houseoy prying open a window in

the wintry. They then went into thekitchen and gathered np everythingof any valne and were probably, aboutto go through the other lower loomswhen they were frightened away. Theburgtare left the house by way of thethe kitchen door, which they unlockedfrom the Inside. Tbe family knewnothing of the robbery until the nextmorning.

The plunder secured consisted of twopocket-books belonging to Mrs. Hig-gins which contained only about $1.50,also seven umbrellas and fivo hats, nilbelonging to Mr. Higgins. A fewnigbtB previous they attempted toenter the home of Charles Derr nearby.There la no clew to the thieves.

"W.'O. Hay and all boarded a specialcaron;the Hay line at the corner oi[Fourth and Northampton streets.General Superintendent Herbert <E,•Reed of the LHay line acted as motor-man and as tbe car sped along Mr. T,A. H. Hay took occasion to tell about

|-the road. At one point, less than halla mile from the Circle, he showedwhere he was compelled to buy a hill-side at a cost of |10i00fl and buildrtbeToad'On a private right of way. Jinfact, he stated (that 'three-quarters ofthe line -from tEaaton to Nazareth isbuilt on private property. Wherevertills ie the case the railroad companyhas erected neat but-strong wire fencesfor tbe farmers. Air. Hay -said it washis intentiontto do this iu.Jeraey.

The road for possibly more than amiletravelstthrough the Hay estate onthe outskirts of 'En a ton. Lit is a fineproperty and-speaks well for the fore-sight of tbe rfather of tbe two pro-moters. En hia day he kept himselfland poor and bought right and left.This property today is of great valueand Ha worth increases with ithe set-ting of every -sun. >One twenty-acrefield near the homes of tbe two Hayshas been converted into a beantiful

f olffield, the use of which the Hay,rothers donate to the Easton Golf

Club. It is proposed, however, a littlelater, to cut through this field and thussliminate three long bills and six badcurves in tbe line and at the same timesave about twenty minutes in time.

The power used on the road appeared to be perfectly reliable, and tbe carsclimbed the steep hills with case, Dot-withstanding that the special car wasfollowed immediately behind by a reg-d e y behind byular car bearing a heavy load.much of the route traveled the rf T

gOver

ch of he route traveled the raiteareof the T variety, for the most partseventy pounds in weight. In Eastonthe girder rail is used, but Mr. Haycalled attention to the difference inriding over them. Ou a well ballastroad there is no doubt the T rail makes";he beet track, but in all large cities;he girder rail is demanded, especiallyivbere brick paving is used. Thereshould bo some provision made in theWashington frauchibe for changingthe rails from T to girder, should Wash-ington ever pave its streets.

The party dined at Boyer'a hotelt Stockertown. Perhaps "feasted"

would be a better word, for it was adinner that every member of the partywill not soon forget. Spring chickenand hob ivellles formed the chief itemsf the bill of fare, but there was an

abundance of other not tomention the old fashioned Dutch apple^art to conclude the meal. MayorTohnston said that it was the greatestmeal he had ever encountered and hecertainly intended to return to Stock-irtown at no distant date and partake>f another of these dinners. Hissenti-monts woro those of all the other mem-bers of the party.

Prom Stockertown the councilmeuwourneyed to Nazareth where a half-hour stop was made at the famouBNazareth Inn. In conversation withseveral people of the town it waslearned that the Johnson company bad;ome into the town some years ago but iit having failed;: to fulfill all its prom-ises, does not stand in favor.1 Thetown is now suelng the company to

ake it fulfill one of these promises,flt of macadamizing . between.. its

tracks. The Hay brothers came intothe town later and,, according to cen-tral information about the town, hadlone more than they had agreed to do.

The only fear expressed was that somelay the Hays would sell out to theTohnson syndicate and thus leave theown at the mercy of tho one road. At30th the Nazareth banks the Messrs.Hay were endorsed ln;>the highestterms. ' •;

make himself part of an endless chainof vote getters and malte it his per-sonal business to sec that CharleyFowler stays at home.

OUR CAXO1OATK.As was generally expected, lion,

DeWitt Clinton l'Jaimgun of Morristown was on Tuesday nominated as theDemocratic Congressional standardbearer in the new Fifth district. Ithas not fallen to the lot of many monto ran for Congress twice'in one yearand on that score Mr. Flanagan is tobe congratulated. The Democrats oft ie Fifth Congressional district tirelikewise to be congratulated on secur-ing such an able youug man as theirleader.

Endowed with a Qne education, mag-netic presence and a thorough businesstraining, Mr. Flanagan is made up othe Btock from which the great men oCongress have sprang and there is nodoubt that, if he takeB his seat, he willbe a credit to the district and an honorto hia country. A. man of means, bisvote woald naturally never be influ-enced by any financial considerationand unlike his opponent it could neverbe said of him that he made a fortnnby going to Congress.

Mr. Flanagan 19 no "carpetbagger'from the wild and woolly West wh<came to the district thirsting for officiand succeeded in quenching that thirst.Up to the time of hia first nominationand election a few weeks ago, he hadbeen content to pursue the laudablecalling of a thorough business man.He had never Bought an office and hedid not seek this one. It came to himfrom the hands of a people who recog-nized true merit and who desired astrong, clean leader. His opponent hasbeen in Congress five terms and heopenly represents there one of thegreatest trusts the world has eve:known. It Is up to the people of thFifth Congressional district to saywhether they will elect a man to pro-tect the Standard Oil Company's inter-ests in Congress or whether they willsend DeWitt Clinton Flanagan, who IEaffiliated with no traat and opposed toall auch" Illegal combinations, as theirrepresentative in that body.

There should be but one answer tothis question, but unfortunately one-half of the people can be fooled moBt ofthe time and the Republican party antthe Standard Oil Company are count-ing on that fact to defeat the nomineeof Tuesday. Every Democrat of thisdistrict should constitute himself a com-mittee of one to counteract the influ-ence of these two powerful allied facors and thus insure the election ofman to Congress who ia owned amcontrolled by no corporationother intereat.

Tact that trusts aud monopolies fosteredrod protected by Republican legislation,lave become so powerful and dominanthat tho individual Is At their completenercyand deprived of fair and equal op-3ortutiity to compete with them lu all tite;reat fields of industry; confronted as we.re with tbla serious situation wo feel it In-

cumbent upon us to declare for an effectivemethod of regulating nnd controlling tblagreat menace to our country nnd our formof government, and to that end wo assort,bnt the question of tariff reform is todayof the utmost Importance as Ualso the en-actment of truly regulative legblatlon.

It Is apparent to nil who will but look sttbe question fairly tbat tbo protected in-dustries aro gradually consolidating intotrusts and monopolies, and this la midepossible only by pernicious legblatlon en-acted by the l!3publlc*n party in power.

Atiulii law that enables special indus-tries to control both production and out-put of necessities of life should bo removedso as to enable open and f.*lr competition;and It ia overwhelmingly agreed by theAluurlcHU people that tut reduction of thoduty upon articles the tn arm fact uro nurtproduction of which Is i-tlectutlly monop*olizi.il, should bo made.

Weawiert that both the labor Interestsand the business interests of thl3 countryfclull be free and unrestricted in alt logiti-linate e-LjarmuU; we say the Urat etiouldenjoy tbe fullest and proatest advantagespojsible to give them; that the Beonttshould work in barmony with the first andnot sisek to cast upon tbo stioulder3 Gflabor tbe great burdeus of life while theyreap the benefits.

The duty of our government to thoCuban people is to civo them tliat sup-port tliat will ouablu them to full; formand carry on. a free government Hnd plRcetuemselvea on a sound governmental basis.This duty is higher than tbat of a merepolitical one, and we, as a great nation,oweitto thoso people tbat evory promisemado sball be redeemed.

The Ship Subsidy Bill so Btroagly urgedby the Republican Party In the last Con-gress, and other fresh attempts to loot theTreasury should be resisted: method of re-duciug taxation not of distributing tbesurplus should be the object of ourrepresentatlves,

We believe that tbe House of Represent-atives should be a deliberative body, eachmember to have full opportunity of voic-ing the aentimenta of nis constituents andto be heard on all occasions when the in-terests of the people are involved, Andtbat the right of our representatives ehoulnot be abridged by arbitrary rulings of tbpresiding officer of tho Houae. Tbipowers in the lower House which.in thi.last several Congresses have been dele-eated to the Speaker and Committee onRules should be greatly limited to the endthat tbe House may resume the true func-tions of a representative body. Thecen-tralfzation of power aa pursued by the Re-publican party in Congress Is contrary tothe true spirit of Americanism and is un-democratic.

The situation of the Philippine Island_ i such as demands radical remedy and wepledge the nominee of this Conveution t<support such legislation aa will bring abouthe betterment of these poor people; thequestion of slavery in these Islands per-mits of no argument and we most emphat-ically denounce tbe action of the Republi-can party by its representatives In Con-gress when it refused to abolish Blaveryand Involuntary servitude in the far East.

We condemn the political subdivision,that for purely personal and partisan ends,has combined In one Congressional DIB-trict Warren, Morris and Union counties.The gerrymander of District lines was sug-gested by personal ambition and consum-mated by partisan greed without regardfor public interests, and the result, must bo,unless defeated by that regard for fairnessand equity that la inherent in our patrioticcitizenship, to rob the people of our Stattof full and fair representation in tbNational Congress.

This, our platform, we submit to thserious consideration of the voters of thisCongressional District and we pledgeour nominee to a true adherence to Itsutterances.

When nominations were called for,Irving E. Salmon, son of the lamentedCongressman, Joshua 3. Salmon, stepped forward and, in behalf of Morriscounty, presented the name of Mr,Flanagan for re-nomination in a man-ner highly creditable to the young law-yer. Mr. Salmon spoke of the unjuatchange in the Congressional lines, bulextended a hearty welcome to the UDIon delegation. He said he had beemost favorably impressed with hie neipolitical neighbors and.from reputatiobelieved that the Union Democratacould be depended npon to do theirwhole duty in the present contest.

"We are here to nominate a candi-date and we want to nominate a manwho will be elected. We look to UnioLto do her share." The speaker then re-ferred to the depressing effects upontho laboring people caused by thetrusts,—-the coal trust, the meat truat,the rubber truat. "Even the mewlinginfant of the poor man," he said, "be-fore pressing the nipple^of a bottle intoits mouth is obliged to contribute tcthe coffers of the greafrubber trust."Mr. Salmon said that the Morris countydelegates had agreed upon one can-didate, & man familiar to all, a QUBIIman, although young In politics.refer to and take pride," he said, inpresenting the name of DeWitt 0.Flanaganof Morrietown."

ren cumityu*ele(E..tjs. He merely Btat-ed that tho delegates had instructedhim In aWo Becond the nomination ofMr. Flanagan. Several titne-a duringthe convention Senator Oorniah 'was;lven agBtHfincea of tho good will ofho delegates of all the couutles. He

took very little active part In the pro-ceedings, but each time be arose tospeak he was greeted with a round ofipplauap, showing his personal popu-arity with the miBseB. .. . .

On mutton the nomination waB then_iade unanimoua and Jamea E. Martinewas named to cast the ballot.

The chairman then called upon Sen-ator Cornish of Warren, Eugene E.Burke of Blorria and John W. Growellof Union to wait upon the candidateand bring him before the convention.A committee conaisting of EugeneE. Burke, Edward Nugent and WilliamA. Stryker, were named as a commit-;ee to nil vacancies.

Alexander Young of Hobokenmade a ahort apeech while the conven-tion awaited the coming of the candi-date. He congratulated tbe delegatesupon their wise selection. He saidthat the Republicans gerrymanderedthe district; believing tbat by ao doingthey were creating a Republican dis-trict, but he thought that when theflrat election waa over it will havobeen demonstrated that instead of cre-ating a Republican district they had inreality created a Damocratic district.

Ac thie juncture, and before tbeclever Hudson man cot well warmedup, the nandiduto WHS brought forwardand applause was rampant. Mr. l7lan-g n took hia honors gracefully nnd

modeatty, and aft>r tbs applause sub-sided, he greotod the delegates pleas-antly and proceeded with a speech ofacceptance that would have donocredit to a man who had been in pub-lic Bervlco for a generation. It waalogical, timely nnd strong, and was de-livered iu a well modulated tone,and in a deliberate aud effective man-ner. The speaker impressed thosewho beard him tbat he waa voicing histrue Bentlmenta and that he poBsesaedboth the desire aud strength of charac-ter to support the sentiments expressedif chosen as representative to CongreBB.Hia speech in full followa:

The hoiior that you have jaat conferredupon me, I believe to be one of tbe highestIn the gift of the people and of particularimportance at this time when uo manyquMtlona vital to the interests of ourcountry aro up for determination. Appre-ciating the responsibilities and difficulties01 my office, should I be elected I shall feelbound to justify the confidence you haveplaced in me.

After five years, during which the Be-publican party has been in complete con-trol of the National Government, havingthe President and a majority iu bothbranches of Congress—a period remarkablefor the bounty with which nature has ro-warded the tillers of the soil, a periodpeculiarly fertile In invention, and notableIn the annals of nations for the oppor-tunities given for tbe spread of Americanenterprise—we are confronted by moatastounding conditions.

With an enormous increase in produc-tion: an ice cease in aggregate wealth, suchas the world has never dreamed of; wefiad, at theendof this period, the cost oltbe necessities of life nearly doubled andwages but slightly increased, and in butfew instances. This enormous wealth hasreceived no general distribution, no partialdistribution, but has gone to swell bymillions and hundreds of millions thealready unprecedented wealth of the Trustmagnates.

When a Btream winding ita coursethrough a level country is swollen by theHoods, rising above Its banks, it depositsthe rich silt it bears far over the land. Onthis wise provision of nature the countryof the Nilo Is dependent. If contrary tothis law of nature, the Btream rises butfails to water the neighboring plain, it isevident tbat some artificial barrier haabeen raised, such as the levees of the

What is the artificial barrier that hasprevented the distribution of recent floodsof wealth and directed their course intothe pockets of the very few?

Is It anything but the Tariff? "Conelder for a moment the Tariff in thi

light of recent history. Protected first bya moderate tax to encourage the develop-ment of manufactures at home, tbe manu-facturers as they grew .more powerful,clamored for and obtained a higher andhigher tax on the coneumer of foreignmade goods, until the excessive tax pro-hibited the use of any other goods savetheirs. Not content even then, they de-manded a still higher tax, on the speciousplea that they could charge the consumermore for their goods and divide the increas-ed profit among tbo working men. If anylaborer has recoived any part of this pro-fit 1 havo never heard of it. This profitwent to further enrich the few. After atime tbe richest of these tariff beneficiariesbecame tired of work—they incorporatedthemselves. The most powerful of thesecorporations found competition expensive.Why not make the whole profit? theyasked. So they consolidated. No smallconcern could fight the Trust so created—it was driven out of the business or wasforced into the consolidation; and after aseries of organizations and reorganizationswe find the entire trade in the handa of oneconcern—a monopoly.

When this has happened we have thisremarkable condition: The Government,atthedomand of tho monopoly, taxes allthe peoplo who use the article solely fortho benefit of that monopoly. In otherwords, the Government fixes the pricewhich foreign competitors must charge,which price, the millennium not havingyet arrived, IB prohibitive, A partnershipIa formed ID which the Government Is thomost active partner, and tho monopolypocketa all tho profit. Tbo monopoly, atonce fixes the rate of wages and the priceto the consumer, and thus baa establisheda lovee on each bank of the stream ofwealth, keeping It in the course, which,emptios Into Its coffers. -iv'Tr—""'"

Long applause followed the candi-date's address,after which former Con-gressman JphnT, Dann of Elizabethwns called npon to make an address.Mr. Dunn illustrated some of the evilnfluences of policies now pursued by

the Republican party. Union countyDemocrats, Mr. Dunn thought, wonldtnnko a better showing the coining elec-tion than in many years past.

When Mr. Dunn had concluded hisremark?, the convention adjourned.Many remained to shako hands withihe nomineeaud assure hia:-of heartysupport.

THURSDAY, JULY 31, '02.Twice a year at the end of each season we have a genuine house cleaning. Every

store is bound to accumulate small lots, broken sizes and odds and ends. Some hold fastto them forever rather than lose a little profit. Not so at the BRYANT store. We expect,same as every other wideawake merchant, a loss once in a while.but what this loss maymean at present time is nothing compared to the loss to the merchant who holds fast to hisstock until nobody wants it at any price. We keep our stock moving all the time andeverything new and up-to-date, and there is only one way to do it: Sell them the seasonthey are made. This we are going to do and do it quickly, too, and there seems to be onlyone way to do it and that is put such prices on the goods that no one can resist buying.

DONOTHING DOCTIUNB.

That's the doctrine cf, z great manyIndolent people. They cay Mit will goiwsy after 2 Sit • when cautioned to " dosomething * for their ailment. JustImagine * firmer looking over the fenceat ta t sprouting weeds in his corn andfaring "theT'U go away after a bit."'Dfataset art' like weedi. All they askIs neglect and they vill grow and fiour-tsli. Nerlec: the Sr« ivmptoms of dl&-M M of tne Bto=acb aac it will not behang* before other organs are involved,because even* organ of the body is de-pendent oz "the stoaach and its -alliedarrant for nutrition. When the. stomachend oiher organs of digestion and nutri-tion are diseased the food eaten isnot perfectly digested and assimilated.Hence there Is a losa of nutrition by thebody; t loss which shows Itself in loss offiesn, and reduced weight, and that lossof nntrition Is shared Dy every organ oitht body, heart, lunga, liver,.-kidneys,etc As a consequence when the stom-ach Is diseased, the heart is liable to beInvolved, or the lungs, kidneys or liver.Tbsca facts emphasize the danger ofneglect of what U popularly termed1 stomach trouble." . . :

The timely use of Dr. Pierce'a GoldenMedical Discovery will generally result in» complete curt of disease of the stomachand other organs of digestion and nutri-

tion and will establish the body In t con.dltlon of sound end vigorous health.

WI was taken with Grippe, which re-sulted in stomach and heart trouble,"

• writes Mr. T. R. Caudlll, of Montlnnd,Alleghany Co., N. C. " I was unable todo anything a good part of the time. Iwrote to Dr. Pierce about my condition,having full confidence in his medicine.He advised me to take his ' Golden Med-leal Discovery,' which I did. Before Ihad finished the second bottle I beganto feel better. I have used nearly aimbottles and am well,"

DON'T EXPERIMENT WJTIJ VODR6TOMACU.

It 's a waste of time and money toexperiment on medtclnea. If you art ona Journey to a certain town, you takethe road that will surely bring youthere. You don't turn aside ana experi-ment on roads simply because they artroada. The rood you follow Is the roadwhich lenda to where you want to be.It's that way with medicines. Whenyou want the way which leads straight-

est and surest to healthyou will follow the thou-sands who have taken Dr.Flerce'B Golden MedicalDiscovery and have beenperfectly and permanentlycured.

u It gives me great pleas-ure to inform you of thebenefits that I have real-ized from the use of your•Golden Medical Discov-ery ' and ' Pleasant Pel-lets ' " writes Mrs. J. C.Fink, of Yost, Rowan Co.,N. C. "Last winter I was6O bad off that I thoughtit impossible for me to liveuntil Bpring. I was takensick m January and was Inpain all over. The doctorwas called, and said myliver was out of order.

— He gave me aome mediciner—. but it did me no good.

I grew steadily worse. Icould not eat as much asone bite of bread without

great pain, and was soungry all the time that I

thought I would starve todeath, My head ached,my shoulders ached. Iwas cross. My brain failedEO much that I thoughtI was almost Insane. I

could not sleep rights only a short whileat a time. Would get up mornings soweak and nervous, I could scarcely stand.In this way I suffered, I think, about twomonths, when a friend of mine inducedme to write to Dr. Pierce for advice,which I did. His answer was that I hadindigestion and liver complaint, and ad-vising me to take his ' Golden MedicalDiscovery.' I followed the Doctor'sdirections closely, and In a few days Icould discover that I was getting betterslowly. Every day I felt just a littlebetter, then I could begin to eat a littlelight diet. Then I began to sleep alittle better at night and in the morningwould feel refreshed and rested. NextI began to gather a little flesh, and theoI began to improve rabidly. I tookeight bottlea of ^Golden Medical Discov-ery ' and several vials of ' Pleasant Pel-lets,' and I felt that I was well enoughto leave off medicine and go to work,which I did with pleasure. I have nottaken any medicine since except Dr.Pierce's Pellets. I can eat anything andas much as I want and it never nowhurts me a particle."

There is no alcohol in " Golden Med-ical Discovery," and it is free from opium,cocaine, and all other narcotics.

A II0XB IN THE POCKBTmay mean a serious loss of money. It's

Workmen In large nnmbers aro almostdaily being "laid o2" at the Edison cementmill which is occasioned, we presume, bythe advanced condition of the work inprogress, but as many of the workmen andartlBans are nomadic by nature and CUB-tom.
