THE TRAGEDY AT TROY.
August Loeble Caused . Sensation b
 His Testim ony at the Ross Ina est.

August LoebIe Caused q Sensation by His Testimony at the Ross Inquest. TROY, N. Y, March 1s.-The Ross in- quest was resumed today. August R. Loeble caused quite a sensation He swore positively that he saw "Bat" Shea fire two shots at Robert Ross and that the second shot struck Ross in the head, producing the fatal wound. MT. Loeble was the first witness to testify that Roland discharged his revolver, but he swore that Roland did not fire until at least one minute after Ross had been killed. He then opened fire upon two men who had previously began
 firing at him. The witness was positive iH his statements.
 One point brought out by the witness wss that there was more of . contest in the ward over the msyorslity ticket than over the ward ticket. This was important, as contrsdictipg the statements that the tragedy was the result of fight between republican factions in the ward. Edward Phillips, a ballot clerk, said that he saw Robert Ross kneeling with two men near him. Roland had revolver and club and a man was attacking him with brick.
 Edward Cippsrly stated that he saw Mo- Cough and Robert Ross together. They stumbled and fell. McGough raised re- volver and Ross tried to knock 1t out of his hand. McGough started to Srun and Ross follwed, then McGough turned and fired st Ross.
 Emil Klage asserted that he and Roland had revolvers at the polls. Witness also esid he carried a revolver and pulled 1t out when a bullet whistled by his head, but he did not fire the revolver.
 Harry Willis, boy, said that he saw Shea draw a revolver. Robert Ross drew stick and started for McGough. The latter turned and shot Ross twice. William Osshmsn, on behalf of the defence, said he was warned not to do anything, because one of the republican watchers had bought a revolver.

the singing of 'fHAu Colunhisn by the school children After this . most inter estipg historical sketch of the town wss read by Charles Smith. It contained sn account of the early settlement of New Ha- ven, with special reference to the town of Orange, which was purchased from the In- dians in 1700.

 hardships and privations they endured,

 subsequent development. The paper also
 included an account of the early troubles
 and jars of the town with surrounding

B. P. Abbott, Rev. H. ". Whitney, Rev. 8. H- Hubbard, Dr. Barnett and Justice PArdee who, at the closs of the service, turned over to Ffrst Selectmsn Andrews the keys of the town hall.

WHAT Is APPETITE9 Healthy Appetite Tsaehss Us When
 xs Ought to Eat.
Without Appetite we Would Not
 Eat, we Would Not Live.

Convalescents are always hungry they are growing well. Children have great appstites {; they are growing big. Healthy people have good appetites thsir stomAchs need food to re- place the waste tissue and fat consumed by the body.
 If your appetite is bad. you are sick. Your stomach does not wish to work. Your store of fat will decrease. You will get thinner You will sooner or later waste away. That is COZ sumption.
 If you do not waste away, but remain always thin, you are stin laying yourself optn to the attacks of disease. Fat is nothing but Natures reserve forcs or fuel You cannot be absolutely healthy unless you are normally fat.
 What makes PaskolA the great appetizer" Is the fact that 1t aids the stomach to digest all other food, is itself at once absorbed into the system. and thus leaves the stomach perfectly empty. As soon as this happens hunger occurs. The reason so many dyspeptics have no appetite Is that their stomachs are constantly full of i'm perfectly dizested food.
 There is only one way to perm arently remedy being 6 pre-digested food Is directly absorbed, and gives the stomach no work. IL brings back 6 healthy appetite and will make even 6 con. sumptive healthy and fs'
