Drastic excessive purging IS undoubtedly
the most frequent form OF coercion OF this
sort Tho bowels are forced, literally
wreucled into action. OF course this Is &C
compauied with much gripping pain, and sue
eeeded by exhaustion, which leaves tho
organs OF evacuation in state incompatible
with subsequent regularity and activity.

New YORK, July 8.-The Even |
ing World, in it's sporting edition,
says: The body of the murderer,
Harris A. Smiler, was brought to
this city this afternoon by Under
taker Hulberg on the train which
left Sing Sing at 1.36 O'Clock. The
body had been claimed by Smiler's
widow, the woman he married and
deserted for the woman he afterwards
murdered. The body was taken
from the train to the undertakers
at No. 265 West One hundred and
twenty fifth street. Three or four
hundred people were gathered to
witness the arrival Of the body. BY
a previous arrangement with the
undertaken, an Evening World
reporter was in waiting at the
rooms, to see the body Of the exc
cuted murderer. The coffin was
taken to the basement by the
undertaker's assistants, and the lid
was quickly taken off, exposing the
dead mans face. The reporter stood
close by, and was mortified at the
sight that met his eyes. Smiler's
face had been burned sad seame.
by the electric fluid until it pre-
sented the appearance OF hav-
ing been broiled. The hair on the
front of his head and of the NOUS
tache and eye brows had been signed
and burnedoff. The face was furrowed
and Scared as though with hot
iron. These marks were not those
of a dissecting knife Or scapel. They
were palpable burns.
Pressing closer to see the dead
mans face palmer, the reporter at
tracted the attention of the under
takers assistants, and they seized
him by the shoulder and compelled
him to leave the place before any
other portion Of the body was ex.
posed. To the repeated requests te
be allowed to see the body, the re
porter was informed that no one
but the undertaken and his assis
tants would be permitted to see i
until it h ad been fully prepared fo1
burial. 1t was learned through ONT
of the undertaker's assistants tha
Smiler's left leg was burned to th'
bone through the calf? The eye
; were badly burned, though the eye
ball was not destroyed.

CHARLOTTE, n. c., July s.
Old uncle Billy Bost, of No. 10
township, Cabarrus county, died the
other day and his body was buried
at Bethel. He was about eighty
years old, was batchelor, and was
known to be miserly in his habits
to wonderful degree. His only
companions were two dogs, and an
old negro woman who had beer
living with him during his
entire life. Curious to say, in
his will he left her nothing
but her old age and worn-out con-
stitution-not a penny or even a
shanty to cover her head. His real
estate consisted Of 1900 acres of
land. His home place containing
500 acres he left jointly to his two
nephews, Allen and Peter Bost. The
former is his executor. The bal
ance was left to other nephews in
100 acre lots each. To his nieces
be gave nothing. In his dilapidat-
ed home he had a safe which was
thought to hold thousands Of dollars.
When this was opened the only mon.
ey found was punched nickle. Fur
ther search was instituted and i'm
old bureau drawers, old cupboards.
i'll pitchers, jars, in old clotbes-pock-
cts, in old stockings and in cracks
in his miserable house was found
$4,000 in gold, besides a large
quantity of gold dust and bullion. He
had on hand only few hundred
dollars III paper money and no notes
or mortgages Of any consequence.
In the search package from a
Charlotte bank was found contain.
ING several hundred dollars that had
never been opened at all. This was re.
ceived 10y him in $780, Last spring he
made tax returns and gave in a:
money on hand $4,000.
Perhaps he did not know how
much he had stuck about in differ
ent places. He had corn and bacon
on hand four years old, and some
hay that has been stacked twenty
five years. He eased his conscience
by leaving Of his hard earnings $10'
