DON'T FRIGHTEN THE CHILDREN.

Time was when neither physicians, nar-
SEES nor parents had much consideration for
the feelings of children in cases of sickness
They dosed them heavily with powerful
drugs for the most trifling complaints, and
if the little ones rebelled and refused to
take the nauseating medicine, they were
pronounced very naughty and disobedient
children and threatened with all sorts of
dreadful punishments But it is no longer
SO The Liebig Malt Extract has taken
the place of such revolving remedies as cod
liver oil etc, and as it is pleasant to the
taste, as well as invigorating to the system,
there is no longer any excuse for frighten-
ing the children into taking the old
fashioned and less effective restoratives.
Unlike the latter, the Liebig Malt Extract
does not offend the stomach, but, on the
contrary is as readily retained as the most
tempting food, and is as nourishing as it
is palatable. AT the same that it stimu-
lates the appetite it invigorates
the digestive organs, and thus the process
of rccuperation goes forward rapidly and
surely Don't frighten the children; they
will take the Liebig Malt Extract without
compulsion and without coaxing.

Three men were arrested yesterday
afternoon for entering residence on Sec

ally disagreable. They gave their names
as Owen Gillen, Bill Adams and
Ed. Gearman. They were about
the city yesterday claiming that

umbrellas, and for that purpose would

They visited a certain residence on Sec

no such work was required they concluded
that dinner would best satisfy them.
The owner of the house happened to be
near at hand, and he promptly ordered
them from the premises. They did not go
with the velocity that he desired and a
policeman was called in who conducted the
trio to the police station where they will

TRAGEDY.

The Geneseo Republic has the following:
Another terrible tragedy has been en-
acted in Henry county. At noon last
Friday Eric Lindquist, who lives eight
miles south of this city, was robbed of his
child by the desperate freak of an insane
woman. He and his hired hand came
| from their work to dinner as usual. They
found the table spread and sat down to the
meal, noticing at the time that his little son,
five years old, was dressed in his best
clothes. After they began the meal, Mrs.
Lindquist took the little boy and started
oIt of the house. There was no appear
ance of excitement in her movements and
Mr.. Lindquist says the thought occurred
to him that she was going 10 one of the
neghbors'. After finishing their
meal the two men went out
to the barn and sat down a
little while. There their attention was
attracted by peculiar sound in one of the
corn cribs. Investigation showed the hor-
rified men Mrs. Lindquist, gasping. and
gurgling, with her throat horribly gashed,
and her little boy beside her dead, his
throat cut from ear to ear. She had killed
the boy with razor, and had almost sue
ceeded in taking her own life with the
same weapon. She was Immediately car
ried to the house and medical aid sum-
moned. At last accounts she las living,
but il is considered that her wounds are
fatal, especially as she persists in tearing
them apart when they are dressed. She
has expressed great sorrow for the terrible
decd, but says she wants to die and GO to
her little son. The woman is about forty
years of age, and is doubtless insane.
This theory was adopted by the coroner's
jury that held an inquest over the little
boy Saturday, their verdict being that he
came To his death at the hands of Lizzie
Lindquist, his mother, while she was in
sane.

features peculiar and original IN the ex-

enjoy privileges not allowed to the usual

They puff poor cigars while in the dis

that smoking is not allowed. The

CHANGED HIS MIND.

Christopher Koehler was up before JUS
tice Chopper yesterday on charge of using
abusive language to Theodore Free The
case was stated very plainly by the prose
cution, and the defendant admitted that
the material facts We're all stated correctly;
in other words he entered plea of guilty.
The court imposed fine of 30 and costs,
whereupon the defendant changed his
mind. and wanted new trial He evi-
IDENTIFY thought that law suit did not
amount to much unless the opposing sides
differed on the main facts.
He has more experience now, as upon
his refusal to pay the fine he was commit
ted to the armory, but managed to bring
forth the money before imprisoned and
was therefore discharged.

ST. JosEpH.s SCHOOL.

The closing exercises of the st. Joseph
Catholic school occurred yesterday after
noon at the school building on Second
avenue, and proved TO be very entertaining
to the numerous friends and patrons OF that
institution who. were in attendance.
3 The school is under the supervision of
five sisters of charity, and to their effici-
ency and fidelity is due the phenomenal
growth and progress of the institution.
1t was first opened last September and
during the year has had as high as 1870
scholars, girls ranging from the beginner
to those IN their teens. The school rooms
have been filed during the entire year

commenced and will be completed before
the next school year

Children" in which a large number of the
scholars took part, chorus and a trio by
nj. Hackett, q. Stephenson and F. Fur
long. The Goddess of Nature" q short
dramatic piece next followed, after which
A. Kane and K. McQuaid rendered duet.
The Harp of Tara" was then given by
"a chorus when ''Dottie's Dream" was rem
dered by a few of the children.
A trio by A and C. Burial and NJ.
LAWYER was the next piece ON the pro-
gramme, and the next in order was
drama entitled 'FKatinka.''
A. Linehan and l. Archer gave an in
strumental duet; after which mimic cho-
rus entitled BRIDES Ball" was rendered.

titled "Cantalina."

A fatal case of sunstroke occurred yes
terday afternoon at Huber's brewery in
this city, by which one of the men EN-
ployed at that establishment came to his
death.
Frank Culmere, q young man some %
years old, came from st. Louis on Thurs
day, and started to work at the brewery
early Friday morning.
About 4 o'clock, while working among
the machinery he became faint and start
ed out into the yard. He SOON fell pros
trated by the heat, and was taken to his
boarding house, where he died at 6 o'clock.
He is a stranger in this city, but is be-
lieved to be single man, whose parents
reside in ST. Louis.

in such affairs are of the OPINION that if the
drivers must smoke while on duty, they
would confer favor on suffering humani-
ty by using better grade of cigars.
In addition to- the playing of the loco
motive act, few of the drivers, or at least
one, stopped his car in front of promi-
nent saloon last Thursday and got off of
tie platform and walked into the saloon.
OF course he went in to get some change,
or probably to find out the prospects for a
cool day; but it was certainly not the most
becoming act, and is not allowed in any
other city In the United States or Canada.
