Court ofCOmmon PIeas-CriminalSid n al Side Judge Denfng.

The jury in the criminal side of the court of common pleas brought in verdict yester- day afternoon of guilty in the case of the State vs. Jacob Swertzer. The accused was charged with non-support of wife. He re- fused to live with his better half on the ground that she was unfaithful, and further more claimed the law did not compel him to do so. Attorneys Harrison and Arvine rep- resented the accused and filed notice of an appeal. This is the first time case of this sort has been taken to the Supreme court.

EXPENSIVE FUN.

A physician of St. Paul related the fol- lowing little incident in the career of a fellow student. The appearance of the lat ter was not such as to impress the casual observer with the idea that he was an Hsculapius in the science of medicine, and when he swung his title I'M. D." out in the chilly breeze, it attracted little attention from the sick and suffering. The man also became an unconscious butt of some of the more light hearted young la- dies. Several of the bolder ones finally concocted scheme designed to bring him to irretrievable humiliation. A messenger was dispatched in haste to summon the young Galen to set fractured limb. Quickly gathering the bandage and instru- ments necessary, the doctor followed. Ar irving at the house designated, he was met with due gravity and informed that his patient was in the rear yard, whither he was at once led. There upon the ground was rooster which had been unfortunate enough to break it's leg-or shall I say limb? Amid hardly suppressed gigles, he was informed that here was the patient. Comprehending the situation in an instant the doctor gravely and expeditiously set the broken member of Chanticleer, putting it in plaster bandage with all the care usually vouchsafed to humanity, and fol once fowl with broken leg was in luck instead of in the soup. The young ladies were greatly pleased over their adventure and proclaimed it among their friends witt great gusto, but when some days later { bill for 1925 for reducing fracture was re ceived, the laugh died away. In vain they asserted that it was joke, and that they were only in fHG.. The prescription write said he wasn't in fun and there was n' joke in it for him-nothing but the fee and he proposed to have that if he had t sue for it. He got it, and pocketed it witt little observation on laughing about sun down instead of in the forenoon.- Pau | Pioneer Press.

The parsimony of congress in.refusing a small appropriation which the Signal Ser vice Bureau has asked for year after year, to pay for West India telegrams in the hur- cane season, has been the subject of sharp and repeated criticism by the press of the country, as we'll as by the owners of land and marine property in the Atlantic and Gulf coast towns. This year, however, it seems we are to have the much -sought-for warnings through the courtesy of Captain Carbonell, director of the new marine ob- servatory in Havana, and the cooperation of the French and Spanish cable compan- ies in the West Indies, who will transmit messages free whenever the weather is disturbed.

It is rot my province. as the chairman of this meeting, to discuss it at length. simply desire to bring, as clear ly as may be, from my standpoint this question before this intelligent audience Those who follow will discuss it. The simple question for each individual citizen to settle for himself is this Am for, or am against the amendment? Will l cast my vote for it, or will cast my vote against it on the 18th of June next?
 I have carefully considered the question so far as my own action is concerned. am in no doubt upon the subject. am for the amendment and will vote for it on the 18th of June, if able to reach the polls at my home. I can logically and consist ently take no other position.

The above scene is fearful and faithful picture of what is taking place in all parts of the land constantly. The mother goes about from day to day feeling tired, weak, with bearing down sensation, and yet hoping that it is only some passing trouble. After a time her tired feelings increase, her appetite becomes poor, her sleep broken, and her complexion grows sallow. Too often she hopes against hopo. and neglects to take the means in time which would bring her certain relief.
 One day she becomes faint, her muscles grow weak, her head whirls and the doctor is hastily summoned. He examines her, shakes his head leaves medicine and goes away. Then pains begin to set in and life that was burden before, now becomes an agony. She gradually declines, her pain becomes almost unbearable, and at last she dies, mourned by her children and friends.
 This is the course of thousands of once healthy and happy women. The innumerable female troubles which assail them are horrible and indicate weakening of organs which must be strengthened, or health is sure to depart The overwhelming evidence of the wonderful value of Hunts Remedy for female difficulties proves its remarkable power.
 It is wholly vegetable.
 It is endorsed by the medical profession.
 It will always relieve and usually cure.
 It stands far above all other preparations.
 For delicate women, for debilitated men, for ptlny children, Hunts Remedy is a blessing.
 Hunts Remedy is for sale by all dealers, and is a godsend to any suffering man or woman.

A colored preacher whose church had be- come somewhat dilapidated succeeded at last in persuading the people to decorate the walls, but funds gave out, and they left a large recess behind the pulpit unimproved.
 The patience of the preacher gave way be- fore this evidence of want of proper re- spect for the church, and at the close of his sermon one Sunday morning he very solemnly announced: ''Bredren, notice
 is hereby given that the gospel will not be
 dispensed wifi in dis church any moa until this abscess behind de pulpit is fricasseed." '"

bridgeport Standard: All over the land are scattered, in parks and cemeteries, memorials of the soldier dead. It is the outward sign of the reverence which the American people feel for those who died on the field of honor, in prison pen, or af- ter lingering disease brought on by life in the army.
 Usually these memorials take the form of shaft, crowned by the famous statue of the "Antietam Soldier" These are strik- ing, not too elaborate, and convey clearly the object lesson of what they are intended to represent. But some towns are varying this accustomed form of memorial, and to a very good purpose.
 The young city of Rockville in this state has marked her first year of municipal life by laying the cornerstone Con memori- al day) of memorial building to be used as town hall, with fine quarters for the local grand army post. Twenty years ago fifteen hundred dollars was voted for a monument, but for some reason the pro iect fell through, and at this late day the earller plan has been enlarged upon by a vote of building to cost, with site, about one hundred thousand dollars, which as long as the city lasts, will probably stand not dead monument but a living force ill the community.
 We can but commend the example o1 Rockville to those towns and villages which have not yet paid this fitting honor of memorial to the old soldiers. A memorial library building, town hall, hos pital, or mortuary chapel in cemetery will be not only more worthy offering but more practical and more American Thus being dead, the silent host of the grand army will still be fighting the bat tles of the republic. None the less battles because of peace.

Presbyterian pioneers of Todd county,
Kentucky, built and dedicated ,T>Rs church
near Elkton. AS the populaty " of the
county increased the church membership
grew until it was the largest In that part of
the state, hut in the course of time it dwin-
died down to less than dozen. Services
were finally discontinued and the church
crumbled in decay. Among the members re-
mainiag were the Maybens, a fam
lily composed of three bachelors
and their three maiden sisters,
One by one they paid the debt of nature, the
last, one OF the sisters, dying about three
years ago. She left will bequeathing all
her property, worth about S2OuO to the
surviving members of the little congregation
that had built the church ninety-one years
before. Nobody knew of any such survivors
until Mrs. Clark, who lives in the county,
found them by examining the records of the
church, which had come into her possession
many years previous. They are only two,
an aged lady living in another county, and
an uncle of hers and ID. u. Hadden, president

The Queer Freak OF stephen Chhm-

BALTIMORE, Md, Sept. 90 Special Tele-
gram 10 THE BEE. IA little more than two
months ago an elderly, clean shaven man
walked into the Office OF II. Pride & Co.,
stockholders. aud put up some money for
speculation. He gave the name of Com
stock. Nothing unusual was noticed about
him except that he was stranger of very
quiet and gentlemaaly demeanor. Next day
he came again and became a regular Gus
toner OF the house.
Last July, Just about the time OF Com
stocks advent here, there disappeared from
Oswego, Tioga county, N. y, Stephen
Chamberlain, one of the most prominent men
in town. His disappearan ce was completely
enveloped in mystery. As weeks and months
passed with no clues as TO his whereabouts,
IL was supposed that he had been drowned.
His family put on mourning and his sup
posed death was mourned by his neighbors, by
whom he was held in high esteem. HIS
life was heavily insured and the insurance
company taking his continued absence NJ
sufficient evidence of DEATH paid the amount
of the policy over TO his wife last week.
II became known in Owego yesterday that
Chamberlain was alive and in Baltimore and
engaged in business. 1T was thought as stock
broker. Now the denouement--Chamber
LAIN and Comstoc6 are one and the same.
Chamberlain carried heavy beard
from Owego with him, but
Comstock brought a clean face 10 Balti-
more. A friend accidentally met hlm in
Baltimore, and efforts have to-day been
made to get him to return to Oswego, but he
will not. Some say his mind is gonc, but
others give domestic reasons for his strange
disappearance.
