New Witness Found in the
Rose Zoldoski Case.


RIcHLAND CENTER, Wis, April A.
The most sensational disclosure made
in the Zoldoski-Maly case since wit
nesses for the State fastened the crime
Of murder upon Rose ZcldOski was
given to the public to-day. Anthony
Heller, an educsted German living
near the city, has made affidavit that
he saw Rose Zoldoski place what he
supposed TO De poison in the candy
bought on the day of the party at
which Ella Maly was taken sick. The
state maintained at the trial that the
poison that caused the death of Miss
Maly was contained in the candy given
to the girl and that it was placed there
by Rose. No testimony was ever in
troduced to show this theory to be
correct, although it was sustained by
circumstantial evidence. Heller says
he was in Constance's store when
Rose ZOldoski came in with some oys-
tiers to purchase chocolate creams.
Heller did not know her, but she
spoke to him in German, remarking
about the weather. He says she acted
strangely and was apparently nervous
which caused him to watch her. She
bought some chocolate creams and
went to the opposite side of the room
from him. He watched her actions
from behind the stove. She took a
vial from her pocket and emptied the
contents into an envelope and then
took an oyster and some of the con-
tents of the envelope and rolled them
together, replacing the oyster with
the others. She then, Heller says
took cream and with an instrument
resembling a crochet needle punched
holes in it and dropped something in
to the cream, squeezing it together
again. Heller said he suspected some
thing was wrong and followed her to
Ella Maly's place of employment
Miss Maly refused to eat the oysters,
and when Rose came out of the store
she dropped the oysters near the curb.
Afterward Heller picked them up and
examined them. He warned Ella, he
says, but she paid little attention.
Later. when Heller ate his luncheon
and afterward put his fingers to his
ups it ftlIbtl bdStt llOAAl
handling the oysters. He went home
on horseback, he says. and became so
sick that he had to dismount and lie
on the ground for some time. At the
preliminary examination he resolved
to communicate his suspicious to the
district attorney ami testify, but when
he saw Roses gray-haired old father,
bent in grief and of his own nation
atty, he could not, and left without
divulging his knowledge.
This apparent confirmation of the
States theory of the manner in which
Ella Maly was poisoned, comes at a
: time that viii make it particular dam
aging to Miss Zoldoski. Gov. Peck is
still considering the application for
pardon of the young woman, and the
famous Minnie Braddock letter is said
to have caused him to give the petit
ton unusual consideration before
making a decision. The affidavit OF
Heller will completely overthrow the
Minnie Braddock story, and it is
thought will influence the governor to
refuse pardon. Heller's deposition
is in the hands of an attorney, and 1t
viii be sent to Governor Peck at once.

The present cheapness of silver has
induced the establishment of private
mint out near Omaha. The profit is
said to be 81 cents on the dollar,
though every dollar made in this mint
is just as good so far as amount OF
silver used is concerned, as any dol
lar coined by Uncle Sam. But the JIG
is up with this firm now, for the Unit
ed States detectives have found out
the game, but the country around
Omaha is well supplied with these dol
lars and they will remain in circula-
ton for all time.

training will do for the human frame
Sandow is not giant in stature, for
he weighs but 1876 pounds. few
pounds more than DIR. Winship, who
some years ago gave exhibitions OF as
tonishing strength. Sandow, like
Winship, commenced training when
about Is years Of age and to-day can
lift about the same weight, over $500
pounds. They were both rather deli
cate lads and commenced training
with an object in view and so far as
muscular development is concerned,
they both succeeded. Sandow is to-
day undoubtedly the strongest man
living and every muscle ia his body
has been judiciously and skillfully
trained. He is strong all over, and
has a record Of lift of 1850 pounds.
This special training Of both these
men has probably been of but very
little value to the human race or any
body but themselves, but it serves to
show what training can do for bone
and muscle. In days of gladiatorial
contests and hand TO hand wars, mus
cular strength was very desirable, but
the invention of gun-powder and fire
arms sent muscle to the wall and the
training the world demands to-day is
mental rather than physical, though
there should be enough of the latter
to insure sound mind in a sound
body. Brains dictate the policies of
life and nations now. When IL be-
comes necessary, the steady nerve gnd

Oyer a year and month of democratic

late elections say emphatically we
want the democratic administration to
let things alone just as soon as she
law will allow we will place a republi-

policy in power This is evident.
Why does not the present Congress
see the hand writing on the wall and
wisely and pairiotically conclude to
let things alone and no longer keep
the country in suspense? Just let
them take back their Wilson bill, tell
the country thai the Mckinley bill
