A Hint to Puny People,

n 4k106 20 Vky 10OPkCs
From their arrival on this planet to their
usually early departure from it, people Of
weak constitutions and angular physiques
pass sort OF half-existence. Like dormice
they burrow in their home retreats, afraid of
heat, afraid Of cold. constantly afraid that the
exact the forfeit which he demands from all,
sooner or later. No finer medicinal assurance
of comparative vigor for the feeble exists than
fnat f ny S.Gmach .n Btter
spasms-this genial and professionally COM
mended tonic will do much toward infusing
strength into a puny system, and rounding off
scrawny angles in the human figure. APP
petite, nerve tranquility and nightly repose
are encouraged by it, and ma1arial, rheu-
matte, bilious tendency overcome. 1t re-
establishes digestion and prevents kidney
troubles.

A Blood Stain Wiped Out.

ST. LOUIS, Nov. 19.-The famous
Doris mansion, in the West End,
burned this morning.
The mansion was erected by the
late General Doris fora homestead
and remained in the possession of
the family until the terrible TRACE
dy of six years ago, when Russell
Brown, grandson of Mrs. Doris, as
sisted by Pat McGlew, a Chicago
bartender, smothered his grand
mother to death in order to secure
some money and jewelry to con-
tinue a debauch he and McGlew
had been on for some time prior.
The youthful murderers were con-
victed and sentenced to fifteen
years in the p~enitentiary at Jeffer-
ferson City, the trial attracting
widespread attention at the time.
Russell Brown escaped from the
penitentiary and is still at large.
Pat McGlew died within the prison
walls some two years since.
The Doris mansion was lately
utilized as a house of public com
fort, being in the extreme western
portion of the city, and the resort
is the most widely known of any
St. Louis public house, owing to
the tragic history connected with it.

from twenty years OF age, The
woman who killed King was his
second wife, his frat having been
legally divorced, as, it Is claimed,
Was his second, The first wife is
known az Ora Walker, and she Ia
now studying for the operate stage.
ALL WAS WELL,
A letter dated at the Paxton
House. Omaha, from Mrs. King to
relatives iii this city, was received
last week, iii which ii was stated
that the tather of Harry, who had
just returned from Europe, had
been out To e them and expressed
himself much pleased with tho
marriage, advising the couple to
go To housekeeping, Mr., King,
ST., is satisfied that the woman
who murdered his son was not and
never was his wife. Miss Duffy
was also convinced of this fact be-
fore she consented TO the marriage.
The reason the marriage was kept
u secret was, young King did not
know what his father would say to
it on the latter's return from
abroad. Iiarry's mother was adj
visea of the step he had taken and
Miss Duffy also uniformed her fnni
~ and relatives i'll this city.
Late adyices from Cleveland, o.,
state that the murderess formerly
lived there and that her father and
mother still reside there and are
in poor circumstances. Her maid
en- name was Lizzie Beechler, and
her father is not the retired capital
ist that she reported him to be.
The young boy whom she claimed
was their child proves to be q four
year old brother of the woman.
She is now in Jail at Omaha, no II
being allowed to see her.
The remains of King were taken
to Chicago for interment ,accompan-
led by Mrs. King and the manager
of the Omaha branch of Browning,
King Il Co., and a number of other
friends.
Mr.. King, SEN, is rated in COM
mersial circles as worth 81, 1000, 900;
his wealth is much greater than

The Funeral Of Harry King.

The funeral Of Harry W. King,
jr., who was killed at Omaha last
Saturday, took place IN Chicago at
2 O'Clock p. m. Tuesday. The re-
mains were accompanied from
Omaha by Mrs. King, nee Miss
Duffy, Mr.. Wilcox, manager of the
Omaha branch OF Browning, King
& Co., Louis Hill, a wealthy resi-
dent of Omaha and q friend of the
King family, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Jas. A. Snyder. The body was
conveyed to the elegant King man.
sion, where scores of friends called
to express their sympathy, but the
young Mrs. King was i'll and could
see no one. The blow is a terrible
n to the family of the murdered
man and to his young wife, who
almost idolized him. Reared in
all the elegance that fabulous
wealth could provide, with IN ed
ucation that few men possess, and
with years of experience in travel
abroad, Harry King, handsome and
polished as he was, was a man of
world. However, it was a noticea-
BILE fact that in the last year he had
wonderfully reformed in his wild
ways and was attending strictly to
business. His friends were legion.
Frail human nature! He had one
weakness-women. He met his
death at the hands of an avenging
woman who claimed to be his wife,
but in reality, 1t is thought will be
proven, was not.
The King family is one of the
oldest and wealthiest in Chicago,
the elder King being rated in COM
mercial circles as worth between
1000, 900 and S., 100000.
The woman who did the killing
will be placed On trial at Omaha
on or about December L, unless the
defence insists on a continuance.
She says she is penniless.

Weep not, for she's asleep,
Asleep beneath the snow:
We trust that only happy dreams
God giveth her to know.
Not dead-but sleeping, lovely mother,
She'll wake in the Eternal Spring;
What comfort to the grieving heart
Such messages can bring.
Your aching heart is longing
To take her back once more;
But God saw best; how many other
Hearts have longed and ached before!

To meet the loved mes gone;
And every heart is saddest gown
As every year rolls on.

Is MARRIAGE a failure? At Erie,
Pa, yesterday Mrs. Patrick Durkin
quarrelled with her husband at the
supper table, and in her rage she
threw a tea-cup full of vitrol in
his eyes, totally binding him and
terribly disfiguring his face. She
then ran out of the house, but was
arrested by an officer and taken
back. When she was brought into
the room her husband attacked her
and before the officer could in
terfere he almost beat her to death.
Again we ask, Is marriage a failure?
For Mr.. and Mrs. Durkin, yes.
