BUTLER MILLER DISMISSED.

vant-No Prosecution.


Mr.. Franklin Loses Faith in His Ser
vant-No Prosecution.
julius Franklin of the firm of Metzger &
Franklin has experienced change of
heart toward his butler, Frank Miller.
Heretofore Mr.. Franklin has espoused the
cause OF Miller against the theory of Cap
tain Lees, and has maintained strong
belief in the innocence of his butler.
1t will be recalled that Captain Lees
accused Butler Miller of numbering tramp
IN order to WIN the confidence and graft
tude of his employer The Coroners jury
found that the tramp killed by Miller was
trying to rob Mr.. Fran kiln s residence.
Yesterday Mr.. Franklin discharged Mil
Ter, declaring that he could no longer trust
him. What caused this change of heart,
Mr.. Franklin explained, was that Captain
Lees had convinced him, not that Miller
murdered the tramp, but that Miller de-
liberately lied to him about his MILLER 81
true name and identity.
"The only reason that have cause to
distrust the butler" said Mr.. Franklin,
lis that have become convinced that he
deliberately lied to me in several instances.
l know now that his name is not Miller,
but Eff1er. His father is not dead, but is
still alive. These facts were presented to
me by Captain Lees, and so positively that
| was forced to see the truth. Then I con-
fronted Miller with my evidence and he
was forced to admit the truth.
1.-THE fellow could give no explanation
of his desires to deceive me. nor do /
imagine he would desire to have his real
reasons revealed.
Before Mr.. Franklin dismissed Miller he
notified both Captain Lees and District
Attorney Barnes. but both of these officials
declared they had no evidence upon which
Miller could be held.

gives me great pleasure to state that I at
once began to feel its beneficial effects.
my appetite, which had failed me, re-
turned, my constipation ceased. and very
soon my liver became normal in its action.
Following this my sleeplessness and head
aches ceased, and | began 10 gain flesh.
The insidious hold on me that the grip had
hitherto had was relaxed, aud / felt invig-
GRATED and strengthened, so could resume
my vocation, and feel free from the Ian
guild, enervated feeling that had SO long
possessed NE.
My friends were pleasantly surprised
with the change IN my condition, and
was only too happy to recon mend Paine's
celery com pound to such of my acquain-
sances as were suffering from any of the
complaints which so com plicated my case.
Therefore, again say | feel impelled by
deep sense OF gratitude to express how
much have been helped, for l now feel
and look like new man"

one feels the need of genuine spring REM
