Rapeaf the Lock.

Pittsburgh Telephone: Jennie
Doggs, aged sixteen years,dled rather
suddenly in Hagersiown, Nd, on
Thursday night, at the. residence Of
Mrs. Geo. Freauer. Hes case has
some romance thrown around it,from
the fact that about week ago che
came into Mrs. Freaner's room early
in the morning AID asked that lady
if she knew who had cut off her (Jen-
nie-s) hair. Mrs. Freaner replied. in
some surprise, that ofcourse she knew
nothing bout it, AS Jennie was q
plump.irie looking lass and known to
bethe object OF attention from several
admirers, thlsS apparently mysterious
circumstance ca used considerable gos.
sip in the town, where she was well
known. The account she gave OF the
fossil of her hair, which was noted Tor
its thickness aud length was that s2e

aedjately after waking she noticed
that all the doors were open and a

tresses until she had arose and

successful attempt, it ia supposed the

CONSTIPATION and fright Of the unfor-

Whether she had been chloroform-
ed by some one ANXIOUS to secure her
hair or whether it was the act of
some jealous rival, were theories adj
yanced and ADVOCATED with equal
warmth by different parties. Ii
seems, however, that she was taken
violently with symptoms of cholera

cal aid, expired last night about 10 100

DIR. FiShblatt cannot help being sue
c~esSful. having made old standing or
chronic diseases a speciality all his
life. leaving what is family practice in
the hands of those who do nothing else
but follow that line, while he is prepa
i'm all the time and doing everything
necessary. He treats the following and
treats successfully all forms of chronic
diseases and those Of long standing.
Among which may be mentioned liver
diseases of all kinds, diseases of the kid
news. bladder and utrehra; throat and
lung affections. catarrh. dropsy. rheu-
matism, piles or hemorhoids, diseases
of the spleen and stomach and dis
charges from the ear; palpitation Of
the heart. and female complaints of all
kinds. Ladies who are suffering from
the various diseases TO which their sex
are peculiarly liable would do well to
consult DR.. Fishblatt. Mary ladies
suffer for months and years with dis
placement or diseases Of The womb and
their accompanying symptoms. such as
pains in the back, side and loins or lower
portions of the abdomen. weakness. de-
bility. lassitude. palpitation of the heart
weak and impaired digestive organs.
constipation, inability to be upon their
feet, and other distressing symptoms,
which may be summed mp in one word,
miserable.

DOUBLE FACED
A League Among the Employees OF 4 Chicago Shoe
Firm Make q Sad Hole In the Profits.

CHICAGO, Nov. 25.-Late last n;oht II
was learned the wholesale house of
Phelps, Dodge & Palmer had for ten
months past been systematically rob-
bed of $4,000 TO $40, 600, pos
sibly more. by some of their
travelling statesmen in collision with
others of their most trustworthy m
ployes. The -iplan pursued was for a
salesman to send in from new towns
west fictitious orders from imaginary
firms. or those which had dissolved
partnership. Double orders would then
be shipped, the duplicate being taken
up by the travelling statesmen, and the
rest returned to the Chicago firm. The
greed and boldness of the confederates
excited suspicion and an investigation
followed which it is said unearthed the
fact that upwards of a dozen men were
in the conspiracy. G. L. Welles is said
to have been arrested here. The whole
affair has been very quietly conducted,
and the policy of silence has been
adopted by the members of the firm.
Augustus Wells is n statesmen of the
firm, but J. Nj. Wells is a partner in the
Monmouth. Illinois firm of Mitchell &
Wells, which had a good business and
reputation, and was the distributor of a
large part of the stolen goods. They
had a brother in Kansas, who is a state
senator. Eleven other employees, four
being travelling statesmen, are under sur
vigilance. Ii is now believed the steal
ing began six years ago, and that the
amount will be upwards of $4,000, of
which very little will be recovered. The
members of the firm are said to be
deeply mortified at the bad management
which has permitted such a large leak
age.
As a result of the larceny in Phelps,
Dodge Il Palmer's establishment, Au-
gustus and John M. Wells, employees.
were to-day held on a larceny charge to
criminal court In bonds of $1,000. The
warrant charges thefts of 5000. No
testimony was taken TO show the basis
for the charges, and all the members of
the firm continue TO hold close mouths.
