a Diving Miser.

Especial to THE HERALD-Examiner Dispatch /
CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-Charles c. Case, aged
seventy years, alone in the world and
worth from fifty to a hundred thousand
dollars, is said to be dying in want and
poverty on his large farm near Glenwood.
Mr. a. Cannon came to the city from
Gienwood yesterday to report the case to
the Humane society. He said that since
April last he had virtually been nursing
and caring for the wretched old man.
According to Mr.. Gammon's story the
old mans conditien is a pitiable one. Rich
in this worlds goods, he is wasting away,
surrounded by misery and sgualor. Abund-
antly able to procure all the luxuries and
comfort that money can buy, he is permit
ting himself to die without medicine,
without medical attention, with no com
forts or aids to ease his pain
or mitigate his misery. He has for
many months been enduring the agonies of
painful and destroying disease refusing
to permit his only attendant, Mr.. Cannon,
to call in physician or to permit any one
to come near his miserable howell lest the
aid should cost something. HE is Ger
tainly out of his mind,'' said Mr. Cannon.
81 ought to have seen this before. WHY,
/ he has hundreds OF tons of fine hay stacked
around his shanty, which he has held for
| oCNCld OIL years ICAuo4llS W ocII IL, saying
that there would be Russian war soon
when he would get $50 a ton for every bit
of it. He has figured it out and keeps the
figures among some old papers showing
how much this hay will bring him He
counts on from twelve to fifteen hundred
tons and hugs the idea to his bosom
that he will shortly wiring from fifty
to seventy-tive thousand dollars from
4 the Russian government. He will
not permit pound of this hay to be sold,
and it is going to ruin, thousands of dol
lars worth, and he is dying for want of a
few necessary comforts of life.''
Charles G.. Case went from New Eng
land to California in 1913, during the gold
fever, when he was twenty EIGHT years
old, he made some money and returned as
far as Illinois and settled in Cook county.
He bought $50 acres of land, which he yet
has, about 1854, and made other invest
ments, and has always been prosperous.

Death of Pretty Jennie Bell.

Especial 70 TIE HEaALD-Examiner Dispatch. I
NEW YORK. Jan. 9.-Pretty Jennie Bell,
one Of the prettiest yonng women in Henry
E. Dixie's ''Adonis'' company, died yester-
day OF the grip. Her baptismal name was
Jennie Dubois. Miss Dubois was born in
Saugerties, New York, in 1862, and after
the death of her father was adopted by a
PROSPEROUS farmer named Hairland, who
lived near town. She came to New York
frequently to visit her brother, who is in
business here, and she finally came to New
York to live, finishing her education at a
fashionable boarding school. After ap-
pearing in amateur theatricals and scoring
a success, she joined the Dixie company
and was in the chorus of the company for
some time. Miss Dubois, on her return
from England with the Dixie company,
disappeared, and it was some time before
her brother learned that she had been sent
to Blackwell's island. Through his efforts
she was admitted to the Marguerite
Sprachan home in April last, and after six
weeks she went away to lead, as she said,
straightforward life. Last summer Miss
Dubois adopted father died and left her q
legacy. which she squandered with hel

KATIE PUTNAM.

The Katie Putnam company arrived in
Salt Lake yesterday, after battle with the
snow on the Utah & Northern since Sun
day last when they left Helena. With
them, of course, comes the genial, old
time Salt Lake boy, Harry Emery, who
always looks forward to his visit to this
city-where he spent SO many happy
years-with the keenest enjoyment. When
seen last evening, he said the blockade was
one Of the worst he had ever witnessed
that baggage was scattered all along the
road, and that ten days mail was now
being distributed at Helena.
Since the company was here last spring.
Australia has been visited, and everywhere
only the best of success has been had.
Miss Putnam is a favorite with Salt Lake
theatregoers and Notwithstanding the
heavy counter attraction in the shape of the
Peoples parade, there can be but little
doubt of a good audience to greet her on
her first appearance for number of
months. Tonight, the company appears

A NEW METHOD OF TREATING DISEASES.
HOSPITAL REMEDIES.

What are they. There is new depart
ure in the treatment of disease. 1t consists
in the collection of the specifics used by
noted specialists of Europe and America,
and bringing them within the reach of all.
For instance the treatment pursued by
special physicians who treat Indigestion,
stomach and liver troubles only, was OBJ
tanned and prepared. The treatment If
other physicians, celebrated for curing
catarrh was procured, and so on till these
Incompatible cures now include disease of
the lungs, kidneys, female weakness, rheu-
matism and nervous debility.
This new method of zone remedy for one
disease" must appeal to the common sense
of all sufferers, many of whom have ex-
| perienced the i'll effects, and thoroughly
realize the absurdity of the claims OF
patent medicines which are guaranteed tC
cure every i'll out of a single bottle, and
the use of which, as statistics prove, has
ruined more stomachs than alcohol A Cir
cular describing these new remedies is sent

THE AMERICAS CUP.
Report About Center Board Yacht that
Watson is Designing for Mr.. Jameson.

Especial 10 THE MISUNDERSTANDING Dispatch |
New YORK, Jan. "a cable dispatch
from London yesterday stated that large
center board yacht, designed by Watson,
and now building at Fay's yard, South
ampton, for Mr.. Jameson, formerly owner
of the cutter Irex, will probably be the next
challenger for the Americas cup. Yachts
men last night were inclined to discredit
the news. There is reason, however, to
believe that the challenge, when it does
come, will come from Mr.. Jameson and in
the name OF the yacht club of which he is
member. There may be some doubt
about the accuracy OF the dimensions of
Ghe pew yacht which are thus given length
over all Ill feet, water line 81 feet, on keel
"a feet, beam 10 feet, draught 13 feet 6
inches, u IONS, sail area $500 square feet.
Joan HySlup, Inc veteran meaSurer of the
New York yacht club, laughed when he
read them, and said: "Oh, that's simply
nonsense. No sensible man would design
a yacht of those DIMENSIONS"
The time of limit has already passed but
according to the new deed of gift the New
York Yacht club has power to waive time
and any other conditions, so that if Mr..
Jameson chooses to challenge a month
hence, the gauntlet will no doubt be
promptly taken up.
Elk Commodore James D. Smith, last
chairman of the Americas cup committee,
said yesterday that he had received nc
official communication regarding the new
challenge. Neither has Secretary Oddie,
of the New York Yacht club, but chal-
lenge may be expected at an early date.
The boat now building on the other side
is of composite build, and she is known fol-
the present as the Second Trek. It is Sale

racing skipper in English waters, is tt

any hope of his recovery. At2 o'clock this
morning it seemed as though he

son of Alfonso XII. He was born May II,
1886, and is therefore three years, eight
months and twenty three days old. He was
proclaimed King on the day of his birth,
with his mother of queen regent.
The latest bulletin records a slight in

statesmen and diplomats are constantly
calling at the palace. Queen Christiana

ture lie much increased prostration.

Suicide of a Russian Nohleman.

New YORK, Jan. 9.-Joseph Kosco, aged
As, a Russian nobleman by birth, commit
ted suicide this morning by gashing the
arteries of both arms with razor and
rapidly bleeding to death. Dependency,
induced by misfortune, was the direct

Kosco was of a noble family that was for
centuries power in Poland, Russia. During
the revolution of 1868, the government sus-
pected Kosco and banished him to Siberia

Five years ago he came to this country
