hume Miss Hurley's Body.
Coroner Hammett has again concluded to
exhume the body of Miss Annie Hurley,
about whose sudden death at her room in
he Use 416 X street, a week ago Sunday
night, complaint was made to the police
and the coroner. as heretofore published in
The Star. A message to this effect was re-
oeived at police headquarters by Inspector
Hollinberger, but just when the autopsy
will be held is not known, for there may be
arother hitch in the proceedings when the
undertaken reaches Mt. Olivet cemetery.
1t is feared ny the police officials that the
delay in eXhumng the body may seriously
interfere with the autopsy for they be-
lieve that the body is now in an advanced
state of decomposition.
This morning Inspector Hollinberger re-
ceived a letter from DIR. J. f. King, the
clerk in the sixth auditors office who was
to have been married to Miss Hurley, and
who also attended her during her last ILL
ness.
In this letter DR.. King said that he had
rot favored the rrutilation of Miss Hurley's
body but now that SO many statements
have been made concerning her death ne
thinks It is due to the dead woman that an
Investigation should be made, and it Is his
desire that the body be eXhumed and an
autopsy held.

REPRESENTATI MILLER,
He Thinks Revenue Should BE Raised
by Tariff Duties.

by Tariff Duties.
Representative Miller of Kansas is at the
Norm2nde. Speaking with a Star reporter
he said that he thought the republicans
should at once take action to supply the de-
fciency in the revenue. He appreciated the
difficulty of the situation in view of the
pressing needs of the country, but did not
see how the republicans could propose any
but tariff measures to increase revenue
Mr.. Cleveland, he said, might be led to ap-
prove of a measure to bring more revenue
from the tariff. There could be no doubt
about its being a revenue measure, and
Mr.. Cleveland would take a serious respon-
sibility If he vetoed it. Mr.. Miller said he
opposed the retirement of the greenbacks
or any sort OF bond issue. He thought that
with sufficient revenue the greenba cks
would not be menace to the gold reserve
A bond currency, he said, was too much
subject to the Whim or selfish purposes of
the bonds, which could expand or contract
1t at will.

low, the crops are SO abundant that the
farmers are doing well and are more con-
tented. The retirement of the greenbacks
he does not think will be necessary to pro-
tect the gold reserve. A sufficient revenue
and the return of the republicans to power
he thinks will do that without any further
contraction of the currency. The republic
cans, he says should increase the revenue
through the tariff, but, far as his people
are concerned, there would be no objection
to getting a part of the revenue by adding
a Nix of one dollar a barrel on beer. He
thought beer would stand the increase, but
foissaE tfat there would be great opposl
ton to it from some sectious and from the
large cities generally.

committees would be filled, and that would

MISS WooDS blsLpED horSow m n
SKIRT may ride astride
man fashion without fear of criticism is
at hand. The sidesaddle has always been
serious handicap, and Miss Woods, an
enterprising Chicago woman. has in
vented costume which enables her to
discard it without derogation of her
womanly modesty and dignity.
The lower garment Of this costume
may be called divided skirt, but prac-
tically it resembles pair of very wide
trousers. The two skirts, each third
of yard in width, are fastened in q
belt at the waist, and gathered in with
a row of plaits at the middle Of the
front and back. These plaits give the
divided garment the appearance Of
single skirt, and the fullness Of each
skirt at the bottom completes the illu-
sion. A panel almost as wide as the ap-
parent width Of the skirt falls on each
side, from the belt almost to the foot,
which adds to the effectiveness and con-
ventional appearance Of the costume
when the wearer is astride horse. The
Improvement claimed for this costume
over the ordinary divided skirt is that
there is no clumsy fullness at the bottom.
The skirt hangs straight, and is no wild
er than an ordinary riding habit. 1t dis
plays less of the contour of the figure
than the regular costume used with the
sidesaddle.
Miss Woods introduced the innovation
as result of her experience in Pales-
tine. After much discomfort and sever
al mishaps in riding in a dilapidated
sidesaddle she one day boldly threw her
leg. across the horses back and rode that
WAY all day before any one discovered
her. Then she refused to ride any other
way. All the Arabian women ride
astride, and she followed the custom of
the country during the rest of her stay
there. with the remembrance Of the
comfort experienced ON that trip she
decided to adopt mans fashion in Chi
cago, and did SO, with the result that
her example is being followed by
large and increasing number of women
in the Windy City.

A PECULIAR CASE.
PHYSICIANS PUZZLED in THE
CASE. Or MRS. BOWEN.
The Episcopal Hospital Said She Had
Consumption and Gave Her Proofs
In Standardization.

! From the Record, Philadelphia, Pal
Last July the Episcopal hospital ad.
mitted woman whose pale and emaci-
ated face and racking cough proclaim
ed her the victim of consumption. She
gave her name as Mrs. Sallie G..
Bowen, wife of VIM. q. Bowen, resi-
dence ls49 Meighan Street, Phila-
delphia. The case was diagnosed and
! she was told plainly that she was in
an advanced stage of consumption. The
examining physician even showed her
the sunken place in her breast where
the cavity in her lung was supposed to
exist. She went home to her family a
broken. disheartened woman with
death staring her in the face. That
was the beginning of the story. The
end was told by Mrs. Bowen, who no
longer expects to die, to reporter who
visited her home.
THE first symptoms of consumption
came in the form of terrible sweats,
both night and day. From April until
September | was constantly cold and
kept wrapped up in. blankets through
the hottest weather. a terrible cough
took possession of me, my breats were
sore to the slightest touch, and my
limbs We're like cold clay. The, hardss
est rubbing with the coarsestz towel
would not create the slightest flush,
and the least exertion would soexharst
me that 1 could barely gasp for water.
II went to the hospital in July and
they diagnosed my case as above stated.
1t was when the clouds were the dark
est that the first CLINT of sunshine came.
Mr.. Shelmerdine, friend who lives
around at 1914 Clementine street. said
to me one day, Mrs. Bowen, did you
ever try DR.. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People?' had never heard of
the medicine, but in my condition
could not turn deaf ear to anything
that offered relief. 1t was after con.
siderable thought and investigation
that concluded to discontinue all the
medicine was taking, including cod
liver oil, and depend entirely upon
Pink Pills. / began to take the pills,
at first with but little encouragement.
The first sign of improvement was a
warmth and tingling sensation in my
limbs. Finally the cough disappeared,
my chest lost its soreness and began
to gain flesh until / was fifteen pounds
heavier. All this owe to DIR. Will
Jams Pink Pills, and 1 cannot praise
them too highly.
Mrs. Bowen is kindly faced lady
OF middle age, church member well
known and highly esteemed. She
looks today well and strong, and it
seems almost impossible that she was
ever given up by eminent physicians as
an incurable consumptive. Yet such
is the case beyond all dispute.

the elements necessary to give new life
and richness to the blood and restore
shattered nerves. They are for sale by
