THE KILLoY CASE.
The Coroner's Investigafion of

The Coroner's InvestiEation of the
Case.
Coroner Bollman, upon an investigation
of the manner of the death of Patrick Killoy,
the fifteen-year-old boy who was instantly
killed while at work at the wire mill.
Coroner Bollman, after thorough exami-
nation of the machinery where the boy was
killed, finds that, although the machinery is
dangerous, the company is not in any way
criminally responsible for the boys death.
According to the testimony of the men in the
galvanizing department, the boy had been
ailing ever since he had been put to work
there, but he was given permission to &c
home, but did not do so. The men in the
shop told the coroner that they did not SEE
Killoy until he had been caught in the ma
chinery, and they have no idea how he go
there. The coroner has not yet reached hi
entire conclusions in the case.

1t Was Probably Ineendiary.
The fire on Penfield Hill, Portland, last
Friday night was probably incendiary. The
police of Middletown were put on the track
of a suspicious looking man who got off from
the east bound train and left bag in
charge of the baggage master at the depot.
Soon after the fire broke out he went for the
bag, and started with it down the track toward
Middletown. There is not much doubt but
that he set fire to the building, though the
motive he had is neither known nor apparent.
Seven COWS were burned in the building.
The Middlesex Assurance company, of Mid
dletown, carried an insurance of 81 800 on
the burned property. The loss is little
over $4,000

4 Great Victory
A Terrible Case of ScrofuIa
Cured by
Hoods SarsapariIIa

g In the winter of 1879 I was attacked vsiffi
Scrofula in one of the most aggravating FORMS
At one time had no less than thirteen large
assesses over and around my neck and throat,
continually exuding an offensive mass of
bloody matter disgusting to behold, and
almest intolerable to endure. 1t is impossible
to fully describe my sufferings, as the case
was complicated with Chronic Catarrh. After
three years of misery, having been treated by
three physicians, I was worse than ever.
Finally on the recommendation Of W. j..
Huntley, druggist, of Lockport, I was induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla. And now, after
having taken twelve bottles, within the last;
twelve months, the scrofulous eruptions have,
entirely ceased, and the Assesses have all
disappeared, except the unsightly scars, which
are daily becoming smaller by degrees, and
have done for others, but do know that in
my case, Hoods Sarsaparilla has proved an
effective specific indeed. AS an evidence OF
my gratitude send these facts unsolicited,
and am ready to verify the authenticity Of
this cure, by personal correspondence with
any one who doubts It." CHARLES A. ROB-
ERTs, East Wilson, NY.
This statement is confirmed by W. J. Hunt
ley, druggist, of Lockport, N. Y, who calls the
cure a great victory for Hoods Sarsaparilla-
for book giving statements ofmany cures.

The Mormons will probably be disap- pointed in their expectations of favor from the present administration. They are swarming up the Idaho Valley, and are unusually active in colonizing in Montana, Idaho and Arizona. They look upon the accession of the democrats to power as a personal victory. But the president has expressed himselfin vigorous terms against their debasing system, and will, no doubt, do what he can to stamp it out
