PREVENTED A DUEL.
Advice of wise Little Woman Accom-
pIIshes a Double Purpose.

| Advice of Wise Little Woman ACCOM-
pIishes a Double Purpose.
There is man in Washington who
has wife Of the best type, but, like a
good many husbands with that kind Of
wives, no doesn't always appreciate her
ut her true value.
Well, this husband had been insulted !;
outrageously insulted, as he thought,
being a sensitive man of fiery temper,
and no was burning with a spirit Of re-
venge
He had thought to resort to violent
measures in defense of his sacred honor,
but second sober thought came to him
Of his Respondent wife and children, and
for their sakes he had staid the avenging
hand.
Again he had thought Of appealing to
the law, but that seemed almost cow
ardly to his high born spirit, and he set
it aside as quite impossible.
All day the insult ranked i'll his
bosom, and when the shades Of evening
had come and he wendell his way home
ward ON an avenue car, he was in con-
dition of the most irremediable indigna-
tion.
He had some kind Of vague idea
that night of sleep might heal the
wound Of the insulter, but, that failing.
he knew that blood alone could make
atonement.
As he neared home, thinking every
second of what he would, could or must
do, he happened to think Of his wife,
and it dawned upon him like sunburst
that she was a woman of spirit and
Judgment, and that she might be able
to help him in his sore difficulty and
suggest a soothing balm to his hurt hon
or.
With this new thought urging him ON
he fastened into her presence as soon as
he hoped off the car and kissed her.
He did this, thinking possibly that by
this time tomorrow evening he would
be beyond the power Of OSCILLATION.
Naturally, this unusual demonstration
surprised the good woman.
They had been married 10 years.
"Why, Harry, she exclaimed, "what
is the matter with you? You seem
strangely excited"
1t was minute before he could con-
troll his voice sufficiently to use 1t for
talking purposes.
~ am" he fairly snorted. II have
been insulted. p"
Glow? Who did it?" And the wife's
spirit rose.
"By scoundrel who came into my
Office this morning. ! have nursed my
wrath all day and now come to you for
advice. What would you do If man
were to tell you to go to the devili"
AS he strobe about the room he kicked
over a table, two chairs and the cat.
"Why, Harry she replied, after the
impulsive manner Of women, and with
the utmost sincerity, II wouldn't go. y
Then he sat down and concluded that
q good wife's advice was an anchor to
windward in husband most tempestu-
GUS moments. New York Telegram.

Deaths Due to ChIoroform.

1t is stated that 81 deaths have occur.
red within the. past year in the United
Kingdom, of which 90 were from the
administration of chloroform. This
would be fearful Indictment against
the use of that an9sthetic if we only
knew what was the relative proportion
of patients submitted to its influence and
to the influence Of other anasthetics. In
other words, if the number of chloro-
form cases were 81 times the number Of
nitrous oxide cases, chloroform would
be no more dangerous, although it might
have caused 90 deaths for one death
caused by the latter an@sthetic. Medic

Violins are rented for varying periods,
perhaps for week, to visitor in the

month, like pianos. The bulkier cello
and the double bass are sometimes rent

FAUST. "

Henry Irving's version of Goe-
thes Faust at the auditorium is the
announcement for Tuesday, May
9th. The text Of Mr.. Grifith's YER
sion Of Goethe's majestic drama
clings closer to the great poets
masterwork than that of any other
version now extant, and Mr.. Crit
fifth makes a Mephisto spirit "who
increasingly denies" He makes
him an intellectual devil, whose
business is to present all that is op-
posite to good Gritlith's Mephisto
does not tempt Faust directly or
brutally, but rather ensnares him
bv a strain of reasoning, which the
latter cannot answer because Me-
phisto's cunning, his searching rid
lcule and savage cynlcism, he ech-
oes all the reckless unbelief of the
human race, their rebellious i'm
pulses, their indulgences and
negation of virtue, love and faith,
always willing the bad, but always
thereby working the good in spite
of himself. The production will be
magnifcently staged both scent
cally and electrically, particularly
in the revels on the Brocken,
which is said to be the finest scene
of the kind staged.

W. II. Kitzmiller, for many years
resident in this viciuity, was
killed at his mine on the Clear
water river last Monday morning
He was at work with two other
men at the placer mine, about three
miles from Harpster, and a bank OF
sand and gravel which he was cut
ting away caved in, and buried him
beneath it's mass, His compan-
ions put forth every effort to rescue
the unfortunate man, but when
they reached him life was nearly
extinct, and he lived but a few
minutes after being removed from
beneath the rock and earth. From
marks on his head it was believed
that rock struck him in the tenn.
pie, and that he was unconscious
from the first.
The remains were brought tc
Pullman by team, arriving here
Wednesday evening, and the fun
eral was held Thursday, at one
O'clock, from the Congregations
church, the sermon be preached by
Rev. Farquhar. The funeral was
most largely attended, as the de

friends and sympathizers in Whit
man county.

Rappahannock county, Virginia
Oct. %, 1859. In 1878 he removed
with his parents to Oregon, anc
later to Walla Walla, Wash, com
ing with them to the Palouse coun
try, in 1878. In 1879 he was hap
pilv converted at a revival meeting
held in what was then called the
Branham school house, joining the
Baptist church. Later he removed
near Pullman, and united with the
Congregational church. Since his
conversion he had led a consistent
christian life, being closely identi-
fed with the church work, and al
earnest worker in the Y. p. S. c. E
He was loyal, genial young man
who always made many friends
and genuine sorrow was expressed
by the entire community at the an
nouncement of his untimely death
He leaves a mother, Mrs. V. a
Kitzmiller, who resides near Pull
man, and four sisters and one
brother, his remains being inferred
at Whelan by the side Of his father
For the past two years he had
been operating placer mine on
the ClearWates river, near Harpster
and among the people of that vicin-
ity he he'd also made many friends
The following letter was sent by
Mr.. and Mrs. O'Bannon, of Harps-
ter, to the relatives of the deceased
Mr.. and Mrs. O'Bannon, and Mr.
and Mrs. Oliver having prepared
the body for its long journey across
the mountains to Pullman:

quainted with w. H. Kitzmiller

years, we extend to you our heart
felt sympathy. We know you have
lost loved one while we have lost

"One day happened to read an ad-
vertisement of S. S. S., recommending
that remedy for cancer, and in view of
the failure of the most eminent physi-
clans in the country, confess / had
little faith left in any human agency.
However, purchased bottle of S.S.S.,
and to my delight it seemed to benefit
her. After she had taken a couple of
bottles the cancer began 10 heal, and
astonishing as it may seem, few bot
ties more cured her entirely. You can
probably better understand how re-
markable this cure was when Iexplain
that the cancer had eaten two holes in
the breast two inches deep. These
healed up entirely, and although ten
years have elapsed, not a sign of the
disease has ever returned, and we are
assured of the permanence of the cure,
which we at first doubted.
GAS my wife inherited the cancer, I
certainly regard S. S. S. as the most
wonderful remedy in the world, and it
is truly a Godsend to those afflicted
with this terrible disease. You may
be sure that / shall always be grateful
to that remedy, for without It my home
would now be desolate and my chill
dren motherless. ....

markable cures being daily made by

Some years ago his wife noticed q

nothing of it. but it increased in size
rapidly, and soon broke through the
skin and commenced to discharge.
She was at once put under treatment
of the best physicians, but they -ery
soon found that they could do her no
good, and simply prescribed antiseptics
to keep the place clean. Both her
grandmother and aunt, by the way,
had died with cancer, and when APP
prised of this fact the doctors said that
they would not attempt to save her;
that she was incurable. Although the
cancer had by this time become deep

the most noted specialists of New York
then treated her. After treating her
awhile, this doctor admitted that the
