TRIAL OF Il. Il. HOLMES.
The Prisoner Puts in the Night Preparing
His Case.

His Case.
PHILADELPHIA Oct. 29.-The second
day of the Holmes trial did not attract
nearly SO great crowd as the first day, as
the public had learned it would not be adj
mitted to the courtroom. The prosecu-
ton began its case by calling witnesses to
prove the identity of Pitzel and the man
ner of his death. Throughout the night
in the loneliness of his cell in the county
prison Holmes worked steadily preparing
his case. He filled sheet after sheet of
foolscap, and the watchers outside his cell
door wondered when he would seek some
rest.
1t was not until daybreak that he threw
himself on his cot. He slept only an hour,
and then was up again once more busy
writing until told it was time to start for
court. Promptly at 10 o'clock the jury
filed into the box A moment after
Holmes entered He looked fresh and
bright, and while waiting for the district
attorney to come in he chatted with the
court officers. In compliance with Holmes
request the dock was much nearer the bar
The change was made that Holmes might
better hear the court and be heard.

their crimes on the same day, and before

who outraged and killed 6-year-old Mag

twenty eighth and twenty-ninth subjects
of electrocution. They were also exam
Piles of quick justice, both being con-
victed during the third week in Septein-

of the killing of the two men was the
fact that the usual sentimental features
were lacking.

No courtship in Jerusalem.

OF courtship as it is known in
America or England there is none
whatever in Jerusalem. writes Edwin
5. Wallace in November Ladies' Home
Journall. A young Mohammedan
never sees the face Of the girl who is
to become his wife until after mar
riage. His mother and sisters NAV
see her and report their impressions.
but if it is a case where the union is
by them considered desirable one
they are likely to accredit her
with charms she does not possess.
Among Jews and Christians there is
a greater latitude in this respect.
though the young people are never
permitted To see each other without
the presence of a third party. In
every case the services of an inter-
mediary are necessary. Brides at
fourteen are not uncommon and at
twelve occasion little remark. | have
known of one bride ten years of age.
She was a Moslem.
There is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer To Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
When il is kept at hand the severe
pain of a burn or seald may be
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less time than when medi-
cine has to be sent for. sprain may
be promptly treated before inflamma-
ton sets in, which insures cure in
about one-third the time otherwise
required. Cuts and bruises should
receive immediate attention. before
the parts become swollen. and when
Chamberlain's Pain Balm is applied
it will heal them without matter be-
ing formed, and without leaving {.
scar. A sore throat may be cured in
one night. A piece of flannel damp
ened with this liniment and bound on
over the seat of pain will cure lame
back or pain in the side or chest in
twenty-four hours. 1t is the most
valuable. however, for rheumatism.
Persons afflicted with this disease
will be delighted with the prompt re-
lief from pain which it affords, and
it can be depended upon to effect
complete cure. For sale by Joseph
