If Harry Ashley had been asked which
was the supreme hour nf his life he would
without hesitation have said this one
when he sat beside his wife's he'd in dumb
agony awaiting the return of the man,
wondering If he would he in time, for poor
Molly seemed to he losing strength with
every breath, and wondering, too, if he
could do any good when he did come.
At last, after what seemed to the worm
out man perfect eternity of waiting, the
native returned. His method seemed to
Harry alarming ~ simple for such an ex-
IRENE case, as it merely consisted in put
ting few drops of particular juice into
the three punctures the adder had made,
but to his astonishmeDt as well as the
doctors, in half an hour Molly was sleep
ing quietly and the swelling was already
decreased while Mahomed Mani, the African
medicine-man, left the yacht considerably
richer than when he came on to it,
1t was very pale little Molly who was
sitting a week later at the same breakfast
table, opening a little package her hus-
band had Just given her. 1t was bracelet
in the form of a tiny gold adder with
cleaning eyes of emeralds; and on its
puivering tongue lay crumpled roseleaf

'How beautiful! Harry she said.

Why Is It,

it catarrh is constitutional affection, as
those claim who have blood tonic to sell,
that physicians, in extreme cases, frequently
advise change of air and climate to those
suffering from it? Catarrh is a climatic
affection, and nothing but local remedy
or change Of climate will cure it. Ely's
Cream Balm, in all cases of catarrh, is so
efficient as to do away with the necessity
of leaving home and friends, causing in
slant relief and perfect cure after short
continuance.

P. H. GOLDSMITH 4 co,
A Pretty Wagon.


Garrison & Johnson, undertakers and
furniture dealers, have just added to their
business fine furniture van. The wagon
was built to their order and placed in the
hands of B. F. Maui, carriage painter and
trimmer, to complete. No mistake was
made by the firm in so doing, for Mr..
Maui has the reputation of being the
most accomplished and painstaking ar
tist in this locality. The new wagon was
put upon the streets this morning and it
is the embodiment of beauty and at
tracted universal admiration.
The body of the wagon is painted a
golden brown, a distinct novelty, and is
trimmed with a rich maroon, and striped
in double lines with very dark brown.
In each corner are silver blocks, with a
pretty festoon, delicate and symmetrical.
The running gears are beautiful fawn,
with the most exquisite stripping, and the
top rails of the wagon and the interior are
upholstered in beautiful tapestry brussels.
The lettering, rich and full, is in gold and
gives finish that in many instances is
lacking.
The wagon is perhaps the finest and
prettiest Van ever run upon these streets
and is credit to the irm and reflects the
highest econiums upon the taste, skill
and thorough workmanlike manner of
Mr.. Maui. The painter is receiving, as
he deserves, decided compliments upon
his superb and successful effort.

WEDNESDAYS COURT,
very Aittle Business of Importance Was
Transacted.

very Aittie Business of Importance Wa.
Transacted.
AS stated in the PIONEER Wednesday the
morning session was taken up with civil
business, and little of it drapeed over
until the afternoon session.
linen Prosecutor Logue came in the
room with little batch of indictments in
ms hands and he proceeded with State
against couple of defendants.
oiVer Vanaman was the first victim.
ne was charged with ssault and battery
upon Fannie Dolan, young woman who
has figured in the Courts unon two or
three occasions.
Fanaman and Dolan kept steady COM
pahy' and some time ago they quarreled
upon the streets. Then they went to the
Dolan nome. She went up stairs to 90 to
oeo, Vanaman followed and then he
struck the girl and knocked her down.
Fannie's testimony was corroborated
ny hdward and Annie Dolan, her father
and mother.
Vanaman, in bis own defense, said that
ne gave Fannie muffier to work. In the
scrap he asked her for it. Then followed
quarrel that resulted in Fannie hitting
nlm. They scraped awhile and Fannie
1ell down. She was drunk, said Vana-
man.
linen there was turn-about, Dolan
mad just been the prosecutor against
Vanaman, now Vanaman was AGAINST
Dolan. He charged Dolan with keepinp
dlsorderly house. When Vanaman
went upon the stand he said that he
wanted to show that Dolan kept speak
easy, selling liquor without a license.
Inc Indictment was under the old law
form Of disorderly house, and conse-
quently the Prosecutor abandoned the
plea, and the Dolan family departed from
the Court, happy and contented.
Vanaman was convicted of assault and
battery. He was sentenced to forty-fiye
days imprisonment, from the time of
commitment. As Vanaman has been in
Jail that time he was liberated.
Then Mrs. Mary Riley was brought
from Jail upon charge of assault
and battery upon her husband, Henry
Riley.
Riley said he and his wife did not live
together. Riley had had his wife sent to
the State Asylum, and after she came
back, the couple lived together for awhile
and then Riley left her and one day she
threw couple of stones at him while
he was riding bicycle. On cross-ex-
animation he said he did not think she
was fit to run at large. Riley further said
he thought she was insane and ought not
% be prosecuted, but rather should be
examined for insanity.
The Prosecutor did not think there was
sufficient in the case to warrant any con-
viction, but the Court thought the defense
should be heard.
Mrs. Riley told her story and the Court
adjudged her not guilty.
In the cases of Zimmerman and
Snyder, who pleaded guilty to assaulting
an officer, the Court suspended sentence,
pending inquiry.

HE CONFESSED,
Walter Murphine Owned up to Stealing
the Clothing.

Walter Murphine Owned up to Stealing
the Clothing.
Walter Murphine who was arrested
Thursday, charged with stealing clothing
and other things from Romaine Butler.
at the Cohansey Glass Works has con-
fessed.
Murphlne was peculiar young fellow
and is great liar. When arrested he
had upon his head Mr.. Buffers hat. and
IN his pocket he had Mr.. Buffers lead
pencil, watch chain, some tobacco and
large bunch of keys.
When closely questioned Murphine
said he had found these things down by
the steam boat wharf, under some
bushes. The hat Murphine declared he
bought a few weeks ago of Joseph Ballin-
ger. All this story was very soon dis
covered to be untrue. The suit of cloth
ing that had been stolen, was soon after
ward found under box in some bushes.
The watch was not found.
In the afternoon Murphine confessed
to the whole thing, except the taking
OF the watch. just why he should deny
that when the chain was found upon
him, can hardly be explained.
The young man does not live home,
although he hasgood parents. He is in
clined to be wild, and his father says is a
great reader of trashy novels. 1t is proba-
BILE that he is now in serious trouble.

Fined Refuse to Pay and Have
Apnealed.

the sidewalks of Greenwich township to
ride their wheels, and who were fined S.
and costs, have refused to pay it, and

young men, Frank Bacon, paid his fine,
but the others have not.

walks laid out where they used.
They think they have clear case and
