the efforts of the newspaper artists TO get
good view OF his features and seemed TO
regard the matter in the light OF joke.

Many suffer from serious disorders
Of the liver and stomach. Impurities
in the blood tend to poison the vital
fluid. The failure of the organs to
properly remove the waste from the

impure blood is the cause of all their
trouble. Mr.. Sidney S. Masten OF

BoRpENrowN, N. j., April 19.-Mrs.
Della T. Parnell, mother Of the late
Charles Stewart Parnell, who lives
at Ironsides, overlooking the Della
ware River, near here, was found
bleeding and unconscious late last
night by Charles Casey, son Of the
farmer who has charge Of the farm
at Ironsides. While descending a
hill which marks the boundary OF
the property formerly occupied by
Mrs, Parnell's father, young Casey
heard means.
Hurryiug to the spot he found
Mrs. Parnell lying beside the fence,
with her face covered with blood.
BY her side were two small pieces OF
board, piece of fence paling about
three feet long and brick. Help
was obtained and she was carried TO
the home OF Farmer Casey.
DR.. w. II. Ships, who was hastily
summoned, made an examination
and found that, besides several
bruises about the face, the woman
had lacerated wound on the right
side OF her head. Mrs. Parnell is
unconscious, and because OF her ad.
vanced age her condition is regarded
as critical. Her handbag was found
alongside the railroad track near by,
her pocket book missing and papers
scattered in all directions.
This circumstance lends prob.
ability to the theory that she was
brutally assaulted and robbed. Mrs.
Parnell frequently came to this
place at night and remsined until a
late hour She was here last night.
At noon Mrs. Parnell lay in an
unconscious condition. The au-

What He Saw.

The LIGHT man visited the city
hall this morning and found 1t very
quiet. There is much anxiety about
the bonds. The Mayor was being
button-holed and pulled around by
80 many different visitors, that
newspaper man could not get with
in forty feet of him to talk, unless
he wanted all the statesmen hang
ing around to hear what he had to
say. AS he left he met German
editor going up the stairs for the
purpose of trying to get his auger
into the Mayors ear.
The health Office is very healthy,
nothing to do but discuss bonds
and the coming aldermanic cleo
ton. In the kindergarten the
pupils were having a nice time,
and amusing themselves looking at
pictures.
We didn't hear anything about
when the pay car would arrive.

yesterday. Now. II "Father" Chad

but get a glimpse Of the games

as rank excuse makers. The Mis-
sionaries, indeed, have no right to
complain Of the local press.
Some Of the players "ribbed up"
the manager because the official
scorer charged them with too many
errors. The general belief, how.
ever, among the patrons Of the
game, Is that the scorer let the
players down too light. If there is
anything that a baseball manager
despises it is a "knocker," or a
record play er, on the team.
