A THRILLING TALE.
Terrible Experience in the Coal

LIFE Is SAVED BY A MOST
TIMELY INTERFERENCE.
A Person Who Knew just What to Do and
Did not Hesitate.

There is no happier or more surprised
person than Mr.. Peter W. Meredith. of
1888 West Savory Street, Palo Alto,
Sohuylkill Co.. Pa. He has been at
deaths door, and knows how to value

the blood becomes bad, the nerves weak,
the kidneys. liver and bowels inactive,
and the whole system is soon out of
order. Complete prostration often fol-
lows such conditions. The following
letter from Mr.. Meredith will explain the
surest way to recover your health:
Il had been sick for the past six
months with dyspepsia. catarrh of the
stomach and neuralgia of the chest.
was in dreadful misery and suffered most
intense pain. The agony | endured was
terrible. I thought to put an end to
my life and sufferings, for I was a
burden to my family and myself.

little did only gave me the greatest dis

looked upon the spendlid audience gath

duced Mrs. Wiggin.
We can but endorse the opinion ex-
pressed year ago when Mrs. Virgin first
appeared in Portland as a reader of hel
own stories. The lady has such a charm.
ing personality, she is SO natural and
magnetic, her voice is SO delicious in
quality and her enunciation SO clear and
bell-like, that she holds the hearel
thoroughly captive. When she gave hel
reading year ago, her manuscript story
of incoming" was the gem of the eve
ming. So, last night, her Huldah, the
Prophecies" appealed at once to the
Yankee audience before her.
1t is sufficient tribute to the lady's
power to know that the crowded audi
ence was as still as it could be, intently
listening to every word, except when
they broke forth in laughter or applause.
Mrs. Helen Winsiow Potter sang several
selections during the evening, the one
that especially pleased being the song

NOT PROVEN GUILTY.
Therefore Judge Gould Discharged Ernest
G. Knights Held for the Supposed Steal
ing of Bicycle.

y The case of.sErnest 6. knights Of Water
boro, arrested last Friday on charge of
stealing bicycle, came up before Judge
Gould yesterday morning. Hon. J. A.
Locke appeared as counsel for tie pris-
oner. On the stand the latter told the
story of his having been met on Mum
JOY Hill last Friday, by John R.John-
son, the owner of the the wheel, and
his subsequent arrest. He said that he
came TO Portland to work, was disap-
pointed in securing job, pawned his
watch to get money to go to Berlin
Falls, and the next day met a man on
Fore street, who asked him to buy
bicycle and since it seemed fine bar
gain for IS, though it needed repair, he
took all the money he had, except 80
cents, and bought the wheel. He then
got it repaired, and rode home, soon af-
ter he got situation in this city, and
came here with the bicycle. He got it
repaired and rode it publicly, and. as
Mr.. Locke said, acted in a way that he
would not dare to do had he known
the bicycle was stolen. He also showed
through the testimony of witnesses that
the prisoner could not have been at the
post Office, at the time the bicycle was
stolen. Mr.. Locke made a strong appeal
to the effect that the prisoner had acted
like an innocent man, that his story
was a straight one, and that some other
man stole the bicycle which he was un-
fortunate enough to purchase.
Judge Gould concluded that Mr..
Knight was not proven guilty beyond
a reasonable doubt and discharged him.
