A Wonderful Exhibition

One of the greatest places of interest
to be seen by visitors to Chicago, is the
Libby Prison War Museum, which is
open daily [Sunday included] from 8
a. M. to 10p. m. But few people re-
alize what an enormous project it was
to remove that historical old structure
from Richmond to Chicago and rebuild
it exactly as it stood in Dixie Land.
1t contains 100000 bricks: it's dimen-
sions outside are 132x110 feet and it is
four stories high, and Notwithstanding
its great size it does not deviate an
inch as it stands in Chicago to-day
from its original proportions in Rich
mond. 1t contains II spacious rooms,
all filled to overf1owing with wonderful,
inter esting and valuable relics Of the
late war. in fact, it is the most extern
sive museum of the kind in the world,
and nearly half million dollars have
been expended in establishing it, 1t
has the honor of showing to the public
the first exhibit to arrive in Chicago
for the Worlds Fair-Sir Antonio
Moro's life size oil portrait of Christie
pher Columbus painted at the Court Of
spain in 1543 for Margaret, Queen Of
the Netherlands, and conceded to be
the only authentic portrait of the great
navigator extant. 1t was purchased
in London by G.. F.. Gunther, the con-
fectioner, for SIG, 900.

CATARRH AND ITS EFFECTS.
How IL is Generally Treatod-why the
Patient is Rot Cured.

The Disease Constitutional TroapIe.
How IT is Generaliy Treatod-why the
Patient is Not Cured.
There Is more catarrh in this section OF
the country than all other diseases put
together. Until the last few years 1t was
supposed to be incHrable For a great
many years doctors pronounced 1t local
trouble and prescribed local application,
rs doaches, gargles, snuff, etc, and by
constantly falling TO cure came TO the. CON
conclusion that 1t was incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be blood disease
and therefore requiring constitutional
treatment In fact, local applications alone
are dangerous In that they drive the dis
ease TO more vital part. CATARRH IN
THE HEAD DoEs NOT KILL. 1t Is only when
the disease descends and attacks some 10
ternal organ that the sufferer ID Ia dan
ger. The nasal passages and throat be.
ing the most exposed part are usually
affected first. but IL neglected or badly
treated It will surely extsnd to other
parts. Catsrrh Affects all mucous dim

MOTHER AND BABE DEAD
Found Murdered in Their Room
in Huntington, Conn. sm;
THE BODY RIDDLED WITH BULLETS.


Her Hessd battered and Face Beaten
Blacls--A colored Man Under suspicion.
A soune Heard by Neighbor and His
Voice Distinguished.
wATERBgRY, Conn, Dec 23.-Mar-y K.
Munson, twenty seven years Of age, was rnur-
deredin Huntington some time during Mon
day night. The body was discovered lyingon
the hoor Of her home on Cane street riddled
by pistol balls. In pool Of blood near by
lay the woman's week old baby. The face
Of the murdered woman was beaten black
IN one place and an ugly cut fully eight
inches long extended from the skull down
70 the nose. Tho murder was first reported
by Robert She, a colored man. He heard
some words early in the night and being
suspicious that all was not right notified
Judge Tomlinson. The judge went to the
house late in the night and forcing an en-
trance found the body
Hawlsy Suspected.
John Hawley, colorcd man who had
been seen about the place frequently, and
who does not bear good reputation, was
suspected Of tho crime and arrested 40
his home in Birmingham He was visibly
affected when arrested, although he was
not told for what he was wanted
Mrs Q. r. White, who lives on the oppo-
site side Of the house, and who FIRST told the
coiored man SHE Of her suspicion, is conf
dent that she heard Hawley's voice in the
Munson apartments and that he was IN a
warm argument with the murdered woman
A soume Was Heard.
Hawley had been associating with the
woman for some time clandestinely, and
waa seen going in the direction Of the house
an hour before the time when the noise of
the acuile was heard. The murdered wom-
an formerly lived in Woodbury. where she
married one Munson She was divorced
from her husband in November, 1880
Tho only theory advanced for the COM
mission Of the crime by Hawley is that the
woman had threatened TO charge him with
the paternity Of her child and that he shot
her, and fearing that the bullets would not
do their work he used the ak to accomplish
his atrocious designs
