From the World, Cleveland, oh...

"Mrs. Adeline Bentel, of Hudson, Ohio
arrived here yesterday on visit to her
daughter, Mrs. o. W. Chapman. She in.
tends to remain for some weeks"
When the above little item of news was
published a few days ago, 1t caused no little
surprise as well as some incredulity among
the people of Marietta, Ohio where Mrs.
Bentel lives when she is at home. Not but
what the lady in question has perfect right
10 travel and to 90 10 see her children when
ever she may happen to feel so inclined. But
her neighbors, who for several years have
known her as a bed-ridden cripple, were al
loss TO understand how she had managed
to do 1t. She was generally supposed to be
30 entirely helpless that motion Of any kind
on her part was simply impossible. Some
OF the Inhabitants of Hudson led by a nat
ural desire to learn the facts Of the matter,
actually went so far as to call at the lady's
home TO investigate the subject for them
selves.
Mr.. Henry Bentel, her son, when asked
about the matter was not at first inclined to
give anybody any satisfaction beyond the
mere statement that his mother was not at
home. Finally, however, after considerable
urging he consented to talk.
You know" said he, "that my mother.
like many sick people, is sensitive on the
subject of her bodily ailments. She always
disliked to talk about them and always in.
sisted that she would be well in a little
while. For oil of that, her left side was pa.
ralyzed for several years and our family ply.
sician' assured us that the trouble would
presently extend itself to other parts of the
body. Nothing could be done for her
and we had all about made up our minds
that she would not live very much longer.
Finally her eye lighted on an advertise
ment of DR.. Williams Pink Pills. Forth
with she insisted on having box of them.

gave in for the sake of peace. Well, one

perfectly wonderful. The stiffness began Ia

when saw the result took care she should

cure was not particularly rapid after the
initial stages. She remained practical in

lameness in her left leg. fully expect thai
that, too, will disappear by and by"
Mrs. Bentel confirmed in all its essential,
features the facts given by her son. "Tht
whole family believes as do, said she, "thai

Causes Young Peterson to Steal
Against His Will

Chicago, July 23.-The police are in
vestigating a strange story just told
them by 16-year-old Arthur Peterson.
Young Peterson was arrested on the
lake front.
Moses st. Clair, colored, 54 years old,
who was with the boy, was also ar
rested and locked up. At the police
station he refused to talk, but the boy
told Sergeant Murphy that in St. Paul.
his native city, he met st. Clair, who
seemed to exercise a peculiar influence
over him. Less than a year ago, young
Peterson said, he came to Chicago with
St. Clair, who told the boy so the lat
ter says, that if he attempted to leave
him or told any one about the mis-
treatment he received, he would kill
him.
Several weeks ago we went out to
Oak Park and Austin said young
Peterson, and committed q number of
burglaries in each place. st. Clair
compelled me to assist him in these
burglaries, telling me what to do. We
got considerable valuable property,
which St. Clair disposed of, and then
we went to New York. There we COM
mttted one burglary We did not re-
alize very much from it, and St. Clair
thought we had better come back to
Chicago. We arrived in Chicago sew
eral days ago, and I have been watch

to return home. AS they descended
one of the hills in the park the horse
took fright and ran. The vehicle struck
a tree and the three were thrown out.
Mrs Jackson had her back broken. Her
death is expected at any time Wood
yard had an arm and leg broken and
was injured internally. His physicians
say he will die. Mrs woodward was
not hurt.
The horse broke loose from the We
hicle and dashed down to the gate,
where a large crowd was leaving the
park. He ran through the crowd,
knocking down half a dozen people and
trampling some of them badly. Mrs.
D E. Jones was badly cut about the
head and face, and her daughter had
her chest crushed and may die. Miss
Frances Yackley, a school teacher, was
frightfully mang1ed about the face and
chest, and her injuries may result IA
tally Several other people received
minor injuries.
A panic ensued when the frightened
animal dashed into the crowd which
resulted in several other people being
