A. +. sTEWART's BODY STOLEN.
Interesting Revelations - The Real
Thieves and tho Money They Got.

The publication of the New York ex-Su-
perintendent of Police Walling's book has
resulted at last in revealing the true facts in
the robbery of Millionaire Stewards body
AS will be remembered, it was stolen from
the vault in the old churehyard at Stuyve-
SAINT Place and Second avenue one dark night
soon after its burial, and despite large re-
wards and the employment of the best de-
tectives no clue to its whereabouts could be
found. It nowseems that the body lies in
secret vault in the Garden City cathedral
and that it was finally secured one dark night
by young relative of Mrs. Stewart, who
met the robbers alone and unprotected and
exchanged twenty thousand dollars in bills
for the body. It is large sum to pay for
corpse.
These facts serve as very plain text that
should lead any thinking man to preach him
self a sermon full of good sense. There are
thousands of men in business, law, medi~
cine, politics and the like who value their
lives highly, and yet who have harnessed
themselves with overwork, care and anxiety,
and who, like A. T. Stewart did, are driving
themselves under the sharp lash of arobi-
ton, at brealz-neek speed to the grave or the
insane asylum. They will not pause now
and spend one dollar for bottle of Scotch
Oats Essence to rest, calm and strengthen
their brain and nerves and avert the terrible
disaster that threatens them. A body may
be kept alive for one dollar where it takes
twenty thousand dollars to recover a corpse
Enthusiastically Stewart worked himself to
death. He was at it from early morning till
late at night, and in spite of his immense
wealth knew scarcely an hours pleasure.
heart, liver and kidneys as well as brain and
nerve troubles, and he who is wise will not
let the chance to save his life with Scotch
Oats Essence pass him by.

THE APOLLO CLUBS CoNCERT-woRK FOR THE
NEEDY ONES IN NEBRAsKA-A SURPRISE
PARTY.
March 1.-The concert given by the Apollo
club and the Banjo club of New Haven in
Memorial hall last evening received well mer-
tied applause Although the concert last
year gave satisfaction to many, it was decided
by all that years practice shows marked
improvement in the rendering of the music
by the club. The Banjo club seemed to be
appreciated for that well as the glee sing
ers received hearty encore, and all were re-
peatedly called back TO give another treat to
the audience.
The ladies of the Congregational church
who interested themselves in obtaining box
of clothing for the Franklin academy,
Nebraska, in response to the appeal of Rev.
Mr.. Doolittle, were successful beyond their
most sanguine hopes. Last week a box
and barrel were forwarded to Mr..
Doolittle. According to the opinion of
competent Judges the contents were valued
at $3.50. The articles, sent were twelve pairs
of Sheets five feather pillows, four bedquilts,
four blankets, fifteen pair of pillow-cases,
two dozen towels, eight good eomfortables,
children's clothing, undergarments, ladies'
dresses and aprons, two new felt skirts, two
dozen pairs of stockings, twelve nice cloaks,
shoes, gentlemen's boots, shoes, and two
pairs of pants, books, paper and envelopes
for school use. A handsome homemade rug
was given by one of the lady solicitors,
which, with some of the undergarments and
other articles, were presents to Mrs. Doolit-
tie. An amount sufficient to pay the freight
to Nebraska was given by individuals.
The friends of Miss Mabel Heaton sur
prised her on Tuesday evening and remained
until her birthday, February 80, spending
the time socially. A few of the fathers and
mothers were present among the young pee-
pie and joined in the games
and felt young as any of them,
which added to the merriment
and sociability of the occasion. Refresh
ments were served on several small tables,
which the visitors appreciated. Before go
ing to the entertainment bon-bons were dis
tributed to the company, ladies in one room
and gentlemen in another, and when they
appeared in the supper room each gentleman
chose the lady with cap on her head to cor
respond with the one covering his head for
his companion at the table. Miss Mabel was
the recipient of many handsome and valuable
presents, among them being an elegant cut
glass toilet set from Mr.. and Mrs. Hyland of
Meriden, who were present.
Mrs G. Hyland, of Meriden, is spending
the week with Mrs. Julius Heaton.

THE STEAMER ELM CITY

The New Haven Steamboat company con-
