VOMITED A BIG FISH.
Woman Strangely Relieved After Ten
Years of Suffering.
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record.
Scranton, Pa, Jan. 1S-A live fish. per
fectly formed, which was seven inches
long and over an inch thick, was vomited
by Mrs. John Davis on Thursday night.
She resides on Brick avenue, in the Prov
idence section of this city. She has a
husband and five children. They came
here from Wales last year.
For ten years Mrs. Davis has been suf-
fering from stomach ailments. which at
times were most ACUTE The physicians
were puzzled as to what troubled her. One
OF them, however, ventured the POSSIBLE
lty OF some live thing having gotten into
her stomach. Four months ago her faith

urged his daughter and family to come
mere, hoping she would be benefited by
climatic changes. There was no improve
ment noticed, and six weeks ago it became
impossible for Mrs. Davis to eat solid
food. Since that time wine and milk have
been her only nouriShment. Three weeks
ago DR.. William G. Fulton was called 70
attend Mrs. Davis, who was then Obliged
to take her bed. Thursday evening an
unusually severe and painful sickness sud
denly came upon her, and in alarm, the
nearest physician. DR.. w. G. Dome was
manwhile, gave her brandy and tea. VIC
lenI vomiting followed, when al fish
which fell on the floor, caused great
amazement to the persons in the room.
Mrs. Davis was almost strangled. but
she wept for joy when she knew the
cause of years of misery was removed.
Tonight she is much improved in spir-
its and health. She believes she must
have swallowed the fish when it was
quite small in drinking from a spring at
her home. in Swansea. The fish has been
put in alcohol and was viewed today bv
hundreds of people

best also for fisher. They often caught
fisher, but never a wolverine
American trappers rated the fox the
hardest animal to trap, the wolf next, and
the otter third. To catch a fox they often
made bed of chaff and got him to lying
in it or fooling around il, the trap being
set under the chah. Or a trap was set at
a place where several foxes seemed to stop
for a certain purpose. Or a fox could be
caught sometimes by putting a bait a lit
tie way out in the water, and then putting
pad of moss between the bait and the
shore, with the trap hidden under the
moss. The fox, not liking to wet his
feet, would step on the moss
For wolves the usual way was to put our
poison (strychnine). Often they would not
touch the poisoned meat. For otter it
was necessary to use great care not leav-
ing any chips or litter around. Our tran
pers usually caught them on a slide or
at a place where they came out of the
water, not where they went in, as the OF
ter slides with his feet doubled under
and would not be apt to spring the trap
with his body. 1t was a good way to drop
stick or a limb on the sides of the slide
cutting it down and letting it fall nat1Ir.
ally, so that the otter could not escape the
trap so easily. The trap should never be
set in the middle of the slide, but at one
side, as the otter's feet are so wide apart
ana he would not be caught should he
spring the trap with his body.
For otter and beaver if they were
trapped near deep water. a sliding pole
was usually used, arranged with the small
END stuck down into the deep water The
animal when trapped plunges into the
water, and the ring of the trap chain

of the trimmed off boughs prevent the ring
from slipping back up again and the ami

The Dallas News has pulled out
of its "hell box" an old stock cut of
a prize fighter, and branded it as
Bourke Cochran. just from Europe,
but a Texas politician and demo-
crat withal. Bourke is made to
say that the Intelligence of the
country has but one course to pur-
sue and that is to vote for Mchin-
Iley. OF course as soon as the Dem
ocratic readers of the republican
News, reads the article and gazes
on the bloated appearance OF
Bourke's picture, they willrenounce
their allegiance to the Democratic
party and flock over to Mckinley
in great droves. The Dallas news
is a great help to Major Mckinley,
and will reduce the Democratic
majority from its old time 100000
to, we'll say 5000, but Mckinley
will not get the slough in the vote,
they will just simply scratch and
let it 90 at that. You can't sugar
coat a republican ticket thick
enough to get a Democrat to swal-
low il.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

BY local applications, as they can,
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by consti-
tutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inhamed condition OF
the mucous lining of the Eustach-
ian tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, AMI when it
is entirely closed deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever
nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dol
lars for any case of deafness Caused

CAPTURED A CHURCH
The William Goats of Our City, Make
Raid on the Presbyterian
Church.

Yesterday morning, Geo w.
Fouke, while figuring how to put
up the price on lumber in his office
at the Gate City mill, was called to
the phone by a violent ringing of
the bell. When he answered the
call and asked what was wanted, he
was answered by we'll known fe-
male voice, which told him the
Presbyterian church doors had
been left open, and gang of goats
had taken possession, and was at
that time making merry with the
altar robes, butting the organ,
making high leaps over the benches,
and cutting up generally in the
church.
Mr.. Fouke called up Ben Collins,
who has an uptown office and told
him the narrowing news, and he in
