One of the largest successes
in the way of Flavoring Ex-
tracts in the world is the
Price Flavoring Extract Com
pany. Their success is
attributed to the perfection
of DR.. Prices Delicious Flaw
oring Extracts. This perfec-
ton was made possible
through the new processes
discovered by DIR. Price for
extracting from the true fruits
their natural flavoring proper
ties. Any housekeeper that
will use DR.. Prices Orange,
Lemon, Vanilla, or any other
flavor, will pronounce them
faultless.
The purity of DR.. Prices

ity against the dangers which
are common in the use of the

In an instant Irving saw that his long
concealed identi was at last known, and
answered pleasantly the salutation of
the officers, whom he knew. "You
drove me out of Lynn said Irving. The
officers admitted that they had kept a
pretty sharp eye upon him, and then the
conversation took general turn.
Dennison was first arrested in April,
1884, for crime that was committed the
year before, in 1883. There was pri-
vate coachman workingfn an establish
ment in Dorchester, with whom Denni-
son became acquainted. This coachman
had sum of money; and one afternoon
Dennison entered the stable and struck
him from behind with bludgeon. He
beat him nearly to death and then robbed
him. Dennison fled South, was heard
from in Richmond, Va, Savannah, Mo-
bile and New Orleans. Upon learning
that the coachman was not dead he came
back in 1884, was arrested by Inspector
Hanscom and received sentence of sew
en- years at Charlestown. He served five
years and seven months, the rebate being
for good behavior. Inspector Hanscom ex
pressed the opinion that Dennison would
conduct himself in an exemplary way in
the Maine prison also, until the moment
when he should see an opportunity to
make a break for liberty. Then he
would not let human life stand in the
way of a successful use of that opportu-
nifty.
After his liberation Dennison went to
Lynn. In the state prison he had be-
come acquainted with Johnnie Dobbs,
crook named Gray, and others of a
gang of bank robbers. After he got out,
he interested himself to procure par
don for Gray, and while doing this came
to the notice Of the:Lynn police. They
kept so close watch over him that he
left Lynn.
Irving was sitting among the other
convicted ones in Judge Bonney's court
yesterday morning, when County Attor-
ney True moved that his case be called
up for sentence. e
As directed, Irving arose to receive his
sentence. He stood erect and firm... His
linen was Immaculate. his nicely trimmed
blonde mustache fell gracefully over his
finely chiseled mouth, and the gold
bowed glasses gave him, the air of stu
dious young professional man.
When the clerk pronounced the SEN
tence, twenty years at hard labor in the
state prison at Thomaston, the burglar
did not move muscle. The sentence
delivered, he seated himself, and a mo-
ment after carefully brushed speck of
dust from his trousers. He then took
out his gold watch and noted the time.
Meanwhile the aged McKenney, who did
the shooting at Crotch island several
months ago, was standing up to get his
sentence of three years at Thomaston.
Deputy Sheriff Despeaux stepped up
and handcuffed Irving's left wrist to Nc
Kenney's right. AS he did SO Irving
whispered in his ear: "See the old man
shake just for asimple little three.''
Later Irving expressed great concern
that his true name should not be given to
the public for two or three days.
He was taken to the Jail at once; and
will probably be taken to Thomaston this
morning or tomorrow.

EVERYDAY TRAGEDIES.
Quiet. Ordi AIRY Life Furnishes More Trag
cdics Ihmn War or restilcnce.

etics Than War or Pestilcnce.
"'rhr tragic and the metaphysical are
in reality inscparablc. Let us take
familiar illustrations" writes Walter
Blackburn IIartc in the New England
Magazine. The tragedy of Bala
clava charge is not in the roar of artil
lcry, the confused mass of wildly gal
looping horses, laundering madly along
ur hridlcI or ridcrless, the crlrs and
clash OF arms, the forms upright ol
swaying in the saddle, the blarc and
din, sootv clouds and the fire and smell
of gunpowlrr. All this makes Il fine
picture; but the tragedy lies in the ninO
of each individual rider, who has riSllrd
his divinity in this hidcous insanity OF
war.
"TOO many writer's seem to think that
tragedy consists solely of murders. acct
dents. suicide, flood, fire, slaughter, and
the rattle of mu&lletry. These things
may be either the Accomplishments, or
the causes of tragedy, it is true, but the
tragedy itself is invariably in the minds
of the actors or onloollers. And there
are the tragedies of quiet, ordinary life.
There is the tragedy of noble purposes
defeated. Tragedies are taking place
every day between actors who do not
move out of their chairs. Every doctors
office, every lawyers sanctum, every
court of law-cvery house in a large
city has been at some time the scene OF
a tragedy. All houses wherein mer
have lived and died are haunted houses.
"a man may live a life filled with
tragedy and never go to the wars or get
shipwrecked; indeed, he may never
leave his study, his house, or his garden
| All this is, of course, obvious; but one
would not imagine it to be so from 6
constant reading of the criticisms or
the fiction which goes behind action:
| and discovers souls"

Charges of CahsnsleyiSm to be Mad
Against the Newark Bishop.

Against the newark bisnop.
NEWARK, N. j., Jan. 2S.-Bishop Wig
ger Is, according to . current report, to
be tried on a charge OF having done all
in his power publicly to foster Cahensley-
ism in the diocese of Newark.
He has, according to the same report,
already received a summons from Arch
bishop Satolli, with whom the accused
Bishop has filed his first answer to the
summons.
The present charges grow out of the
charges made against Father Corrigan q
short time ago.
Father Thomas N. Killeen, pastor of
st. Mary's church at Bayonne, brings
against Bishop Wigger, it is stated, the
charge of having done all in his power to
foster Cahensleyism in the diocese OF
Newark, and declares that he has acted
entirely upon his own authority, without
the consent Of the Council in Baltimore,
and contrary to its instructions.
Father Killeen says:
1.-THE whole trouble arose in january,
1892, when Bishop Wigger completely
abolished the little Church Of St. Thomas
in Bayonne, which had built, after much
labor, to facilitate the means Of worship
of my parishioners.
''Bishop Wigger took the keys of the
church away from me under protest, and
compelled about 600 Of my English
speaking congregation to attend St
Henry's church, over which the Bishop
had placed German priest"

Maj. Gen. Yakovitch, of the Russian
army, is one of the few men now living
who saw the great Napoleon on a battle
field. The OLD gentleman saw the French
emperor at Borodino At that battle
Hakovitch, then a mere boy, served
with a battery in the grand redoubt,
which was the center of the Russian
line. He gives vivid description of
the battle, When morning broke sea
of gray mist shut out the field from
view. The voices of the enemy were
heard, the ncighing of their horses,
and the rumbling of artillery wheels.
Then came the thunder of cannon, max
ing the very earth trem BILE. Three times
all the RIssia gunners were killed and
three times new men took their places.
Bullets flew thick as hail and men
dropped dead or mangled every mo-
ment
At last strange sound was heard in
the distance like rain pattering on
withered leaves. 1t grew louder and
louder, until it filled the air like the
roar of Il stormy sea. All at once Il
great wave of bright swords and he'll
NETS and horses heads came surging
up over the breastworl1s. 1t was the
imperial guard. Before the shock of
that mighty wave the Russian center
crumbled away shattered wrecks. When
falov,t came to his senses and opened
| his eyes he saw around him the corpses
| of his father and comrades Suddenly
the tramp,ing OF hoofs called his atten-
ton to a group of gayly dressed officers,
and Napoleon's staff came riding over
the field. The young Russian peercd

There were the hard faces of Rapp

too, was Murat, with his white plume:
and his braided jacket, his riding whil
in his hand, just like circus rider
| And then the group parted suddenly
and there was the man himself in thu

THAT $4,000 CHECK.
BOOkkoeper Nesbitt Did the Forging and
Young Sturgis Tried to Cash 1t.

BOokkeeper Nesbitt Did the Forging and
Young Sturgis Tried to Cash 1t.
NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.-The young man
who tried in vain to work off forged but
certified check for $4,000 at Albany on
Wednesday returned to this city Thurs.
day and landed in the hands of the police
yesterday.
He had destroyed the check while
walking from Albany to Troy over the
frozen Hudson Wednesday night, and the
knowledge of this made the officials of
the Merchants National bank breathe
easier.
Having both the forger and his accom-
plice in custody, the police consented to
make public their names which they have
heretofore withheld. 90
The man who has confessed to forging
the checks is George NJ. Nesbitt of West
Thirty-eight street, an under bookkeepeP
who has been in the employ of the Royal
Insurance company for 10 years. He is
unmarried, 80 years old, and is native
of England.
The young man whom he sent with the
forged check to the bank, where the cash
was refused, but where the check was
certified, is, according to Inspector Nc
Laughlin, James SturRis. He is only II
years old and lives with his father, who
is an insurance broker in Washington
street.
