A Visit To The MOPgUG

6Oluc 1nGcICeoAAAS SbeAIASDAOo OA OAAOAuOe
There isno place in the world so sadden-
ing, weird. and lonely as the morgue with
its row of silent figures who have taken
their lives in their own hands, and blindly
hurled themselves into the great eternity
of silence and death. There are but few
reposing there upon whose faces remain
the traces of the suffering of body or agony
of mind that drove them to their last aw-
full deed. Death is great calmer Of faces,
a gentle remover of the lines of care.
Statistics from six of the largest morgues
in the world show that innine out of every
ten suicides the fatal act is committed
when the mind and brain are overstrung,
congested, and excited. Taken in time,
few doses of Rogers Royal Nervine would
have calmed the excitement, eased the
care and worry, and in quiet, refreshing
sleep have carried away this mad impulse.
Your turn may be next. Spend dollar,
and be on, the safe side. r. r. N. acts
like magic, and can never harm.

ESPECIAL TELEGEAM TO THE DISPATCH
NEW HAVEN, CONN. December 3d.
People living in the borough of West
Haven are considerably exercised over the
sudden disappearance of William Hyde.
Since last Tuesday, the evening
of his wedding day, nothing
has been seen or heard of him. Young HYDE
belongs to a good family, and was engaged
to Miss Nellie Conlan, one of the prettiest
girls in the borough. He was Protestant
while she is Catholic.
Hyde's engagement to Miss Conlan exer-
cised his friends greatly. His parents
disowned him, and the social circle in
which he moved ostracized him. He per-
sisted in remaining true to the girl, and
went so far as to engage the services of a
priest to marry him on Tuesday evening.
He spent the greater part of the day with
Miss Conlan, and left her 70 prepare for the
ceremony. That is the last that has been
seen of him.

rBY CABLE TO THE DISPATCH J

L LONDON, December 30-There is still
considerable talk about the international
pugilistic champions. OF course Slavin is
being doomed because of the dead given him
in his fight with Smith. EVERYBODY is con-
vinced that Smith was badly beaten, and
that Slavin, the Australian, is the champion
Of England. There is no dispute about that
all. Slavin is really being lionized, and
> the bloods are giving him what he wants
and taking him to whatever place he desires to
e. In the pugilistic sense, Slavin is the great

for match.
SOME GOOD JUDGES.
The good judges think that jackson is in

a-ses for glove fights.
II has been learned that President Fulda. of
Ie California Athlethic Club. offered any |
mount of money TO Sullivan to fight jackson, |

Slavin is now champion of England, and he |

for the title.
The Pelican Club has offered 5000 for a
battle between Smith and Mitchell. The con-
test may take place, but Mitchell is much out
of condition. He is eager to meet Smith
since the latter's recent defeats, and Smith just
wants TO have revenge at Mitchell. The gen.
eral opinion here is that Smith has met a class
Of men better than either himself or Mitchell.
Smith is supposed to know this, and he wants
to impress the fact on Mitchell's mind. at
any rate there is lots of money in England TO
back SlaVin against jackson.

THE power of the press is unlimit- ed. It attracts wealth from abroad, and makes known the resources and capabilities of the city or town. Every advertisement in local paper is an advertisement Of the town--it is the voice of the merchant to dis customer and to those who dwell at a distance It acts in many different ways to benefit the town and in crease its business prosperity. For tn ese and various other reasons it is the part of patriotism and honesty for men interested in the growth and prosperity of town or city to patronize those who patronize them, and to help support and build up home institutions rather than those abroal.
