THE MARY HELP HOSPITAL
The Late Mrs. Kate Johnson's
Noble Legacy to the
Sick Poor.
The Institution to Be Generously En-.
dowed and Free to Women
and Children.

Before long the list of the City's char
liable institutions will be augmented by
the opening of Mary Help Hospital, the
endowment of which was bequeathed by
the late Mrs. Kate Johnson. DIR. Luke
Robinson, one of the directors of the new
hospital, when asked yesterday whether
work on the buildings would soon be COM
menced, said:
We have on hand considerable amount. but
do not feel war; anted in commencing to build
until we are sure how much money we are go
Ing to have. The Gibraltar Warehouses will be
part of the landed endowment, the rents form
ing O considerable portion of the hospitals
revenues. We are at present putting the ware
houses into first-class condition, in order that
they mag yield steady income and be no
charge upon the endowment for some years to
come.
l do not care to speak positively as to the eX-
act amount which we expect to receive; but
imagine it will be in the neighborhood of
100000 At all events we shall get one-third
or The estate after the partition and distribu-
ton The winding-up of the estate takes q
considerable amount of time. For example,
there is one large property which has yet to be
sold and the proceeds divided among nineteen
heirs. Hence we cannot begin to build at
present nor in the immediate future, but l
trust we may be able to commence before the
lapse OF another year.
This hospital will be unique among the
charitable institutions of the City. 1t is to be
absolutely free to women and children, with
oII an! ulstincuon belhg mace as 10 tnelr ma,
t1onality, color or religious belief. Men will
not be received, even though willing to pay.
In TACT, one of Mrs. Johnson dying commands
was to the effect that no paying patients be adj
mltted under any circumstances whatever,
and that all services, medical attendance, food,
lodgment ana medicine be supplied gratui-
tously.
The hospital is to be cond ucted by the Gray
Nuns, or Sisters of st. Vincent de Paul. we'll
known order of hospital sisters deservedly
popular i'll France and in Canada, where they
have charge of the Hotel Dieu at Quebec and
the General Hospital at Montreal. besides a
large number of infirmaries.

REVERSED AND AFFIRMED.
Two Supreme Court Decisions
in the Sternberg
Cases.
By a Small Technically Sternberg
May Escape Three Good Years
in Prison.

The Supreme Court has in two decisions
affirmed and denied the ruling of Judge
Wallace in the cases Louis Sternberg. In
the first case, one in which Sternberg was
accused of falselyregistering A. Gutman, the
Supreme Court has affirmed the order deny
ing new trial; in the other one, in which
the registration charge was based upon the
name of David Newman, the order deny
ing new trial was reversed.
In the Gutman case the exceptions were
to the ruling of the court regarding certain
instructions to the jury. The instructions
asked for by the defense were that Newman
and Samuel Lusk, two of the witnesses in
the case, were accomplices. Both Newman
and Lusk were also the principal witnesses
in the charge of falsely registering New
man. Judge Wallace held that neither
Lusk nor Newman were accomplices in the
Gutman reg lstratlon, and he therefore re-
fused to charge the jury to that effect. He
held that there was no evidence to in any
way connect them as accomplices IN that
particular case.
AS this was the principal ground for the
motion for new trial which had been de-
MED, the Supreme Court affirms the deci-
sion OF the lower court, holding that Judge
Wallace was correct in refusing to give the
instructions asked.
LII bne new ndL case IQ6 reversal was
based upon instructions to the Jury offered
by the defense and refused by the Judge.
The defense asked for three instructions,
two OF which the court held it was an
error not to submit TO the jury The first
of these two instructions was that the tes-
tlmony of an accomplice should be viewed
with distrust and caution. The second
was that corroborative evidence meant ad-
ditional evidence of different character
to the same point. These instructions
Judge Wallace refused to deliver and the
supreme Court held that this was fatal error.
Judge Wallace had previously instructed
the jury that in this case Gutman and
Lusk were not accomplices, but that
Newman was an accomplice. The court
held that these instructions, being as to
matters of fact, were enormously delivered,
but as the error was entirely in favor of
the defendant counsel for the defense
could not take advantage of it,
Sternberg had been sentenced to three
years Imprisonment on each charge, and
1t is not probable that he will be again
tried upon the reversed verdict in the New
man case. He will very probably be made
to serve the full term on the Gutman
charge and the Newman charge will be al
lowed to lapse.

Two Rivers, Wis, March 17.-(Spec-
ial-)-Great excitement and interest
have been manifested in the recovery
of an old time resident in this town,
Mr.. Jos. Bunker. who has for several
years been considered by all his friends
a hopeless consumptive. Investigation
shows that for over thirty-two years he
used three and a half pounds Of tobac-
CO a week. A short time ago he was
induced to try a tobacco-habit cure
called ''No-To-Bac." Talking about his
miraculous recovery today he said:
Yes, used No-To-Bac, and two boxes
completely cured me. / thought, and
so did all my friends, that l had con-
sumption. Now they say, as you say,
now healthy and strong you look, Joe,
and whenever they ask me what cured
my consumption tell them No-To-Bac
The last week used tobacco lost four
pounds. The morning l began the use
of No-To-Bac 1 weighed 1261s pounds;
today weigh log, gain Of 4212 pounds.
1 eat heartily and sleep well. Before
used No-To-Bac I was so nervous that
when I went to drink had 10 hold the

are perfectly steady. Where did l get
No-To-Bac? At the drugstore. II is

body dragged a mile. A beautiful girl
was torn from her mother and carried
of by a Spanish officer. These atroci-
ties were given with great minuteness,
said to be the personal observation OF
the writer's Of the letters. Mr.. Morgan
said the writer was a graduate of the
Virginia military academy
INSULTED BY NAIL.
Mr.. Morgan said the letters disclos-
ed the existence Of bloody war, and II
was the duty of congress TO recognize
that condition of war as existing. The
senator said he had received postal
cards from the north, bidding him TO
leave the country and consort with the
negro, Maceo. But he could not be
diverted by these insults or by the at
tacks of some newspapers which as
serted that he was seeking war with
Spain in order to bring about the resto-
ration of silver coinage.
81 would rather be in a cabinet with
Gomez and Maceo than with Balmaceda
and Weyler," declared Mr.. Morgan.
Mr. Morgan said he believed the pres
ident should approve the course of con-
gress, but if he did not, congress would
have discharged it's duty to the people.
and the responsibility would be left
with the president.
Mr.. Morgan did not wish to give Spain
any cause Of complaint, and he there
fore favored the mild, firm resolutions
now pending.
"And yet" said the senator in closing,
AZ have not doubted that any action
would cause this fanatical nation to
take up the gage Of war"
Mr.. Mills of Texas gave notice that
he would follow on the Cuban question
tomorrow.
At $40 the senate adjourned until to-
morrow.
The senate committee on finance to-
day authorized a favorable report on
the house bull amending section 1856 OF
the revised statutes so as to extend the
exemption in the matter of the tax on
brandy, to the manufacturers of brandy
made from pears, pineapples, oranges,
apricots and berries. 1t now applies
only to brandy made from apples, grape
and peaches.
The judiciary committee concluded to
postpone until next session the further
consideration of the Morse amendment

quest of the National Reform League,
