THE DOLLY CASE.
Why the Coroner's Jury's YER
dict Was Kept So Secret.
A Portland Man Falls 70 Feet and
Escapes Without Broken Bones.
AndEoscugsin Grand Jury Find GO Indictms MS
The Belfast Liquor Case.

Portland, Jan. 26.-Two interesting
points connected with the recent coroner S
inquest over the remains of the child of
Rose Dollcy of Windham found frozen in
the Pridc's Corner woods, were learned,
Saturday night.
AT the time of the conclusion of the
coroner's inquest. County Attorney True
ordered the verdict and the testimony to
be kept secret till the expiration of the
statute limit OF time While it is Gus
tomary TO withhold inquest evidence, the
attorney order in relation to the verdict
was regarded as somewhat singular. The
discovery made. last night. may explain
his desire to have the matter kept from
the public till after the sitting OF the
grand jury Of the term of the superior
court now i'll progress.
The verdict of tho coroners jury
charged Rose Dolley. its mother, with the
murder of the child, and contained no
reference to the grandmother, Mrs. Ellen
Dulley, whom the grand jury has since
indicted rs an accessory before the fact.
Besides, the verdict was not the unani
nous conclusion of the six citizens OF
Wcstbrook who listened to the evidence
brought before the inquest. Charles j..
McLc Ian was dissenting member of the
Jury and the space on the official docu
ment whore his signature belongs is
vacant.
Another point of interest in the case is
found in the testimony of Deputy Sheriff
Firth, who led the party OF searchers in
the Prde's Conner woods He testified
that Rose Dolley admitted to him, Of her
own free will, on the night of her return
to this city, after her arrest in Boston by
Sheriff S. D. Plummer. that she smoth
cred the child before abandoning it i'll the
woods. But on a subsequent day she sent
for Deputy Firth and informed him that
she wished to retract that statement
1t has been an open question with the
public whether the child came to its death
by violence or by exposure, and that ques
ton is likely to figure prominently in the
trial of the case in the superior court,
next week.
1t is now said that the Dolley trial in
the superior court will be followed by the
second trial of James Lewis for the muir
der of James Coburn. 1t is now regarded
AS practically settled that Lewis will be
again tried, and that the trial will begin
in the early part of the month.
1t will probably use up more time thar
the first trial, rs there will be more wit
nesses The date of the trial will probabl!
be fixed soon after the arrival of Attorney
General Powers.

OFF FOR CUBA.
Zen. Ca|ixto Garcia, at Head
of a Large Expedition,
tvades All Authorities and Sails from
Philadelphia for Cuba.
SAID 10 BE Largest Expedition That Ever Lsi
This Country.

Philadelphia, Jan. ga local paper
says: Gen. Calixt0 Garcia the most dis
tlngulshed Cuban general now outside of
CUBA has escaped the watchful ewes of
the spanish agents and sailed from this
port, Thursday, it Is stated on the fruit
steamer BERNARD, bound for Cuba.
General Garcia goes to Cuba at the
head OF the most formidable expedition
that ever left this country, which be will
take command of on the high seas, where
ne will meet another fruit steamer. the
Jasof, with over 300 men on board and a
large quantity of arms and ammunition.
The plan outlined for the expedition
was Tor the Jasof to cruise on the high
seas until the arrival Of the Bernard.
When the two vessels met it is believed
that den. Garcia and son, Carlos Garcia,
were transferred to the .Jasof.
The Jasof Is expected to reach q point
oil The Florida coast today, and there It
is planned to transfer the entire expetli-
ton to steamer which will meet IL ON
the high seas
From those familiar with Gen. Garcia,s
plans, it is learned that the expedition
will at once make for some point near the
boundary line of the province of Pipar del
Rio and the province of Havana
General Gomez is thoroughly informed
OF all the plans for the expedition, and at
the point agreed upon for the landing of
the expedition, he will have strong body
of troops.
Owing to his great popularity in that
district it is expected that General Garcia
will at once place himself at the head of a
strong body of men in the province of
Pinar del Rio
Among Cubans in this country great
hope is placed in this expedition. One Of
the drawbacks of the Cuban cause has
been the lack of commanders who COM
bine both bravery and military sagacity.
Should any misfortune befAll either
General Gomez or Generals Jose and An
tonic Maceo, the Cuban cause would be
in O rather embarrassing position. Gen
eral Garcia is fully competent to take
either generals place at mennonite
notice. ~

Weak N erves

Indicate as surely as any physical
symptom shows anything, that the Or
gans and tissues of the body are not
satisfied with their nourishment.
They draw their sustenance from
the blood, and if the blood is thin, i'm
pure or insufficient, they are in state
of revolt. Their complaints are made
to the brain, the king of the BODY,
through the nervous system, and the
result of the general dissatisfaction is
what we call Nervousness.
This is a concise, reasonable expla-
nation of the whole matter.
The cure for Nervousness, then, is
simple. Purify and enrich your blood
by taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, and the
nerves, tissues and organs will have
the hcalthful nourishment they crave.
Nervousness and Weakness will then
give way to strength and health.
That this is not theory but fact is
proven by voluntary statements of
thousands cured by Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. Read the next column.
