married sister, Mrs. Frank L. Clair, in
this city, was found dead In bed at
fhandler's hotel yesterday morning.
Later in the day Medical Examiner
Ereck performed an autopsy on the
woman, and announced that death was
lhe result OF an unsuccessful criminal
operation. Shortly after s oclo,ss Mon
day night Eugene Bernatchez, aged 21,
called at Frank f. Clair's tenement and
asked for Miss Beauregard. He invited
her TO takea bicycle ride and she ac-
cepted. About an hour later the couple
entered Chandler's hotel and registered
as John M. Smith and wife, Boston"
AS the night watchman at the hotel was
making his rounds shortly before n
o'clock, he saw the door OF room 10
partly open. He knocked several times,
and getting no response entered, finding
Miss Beauregard lying partly disrobed
on the bed. dead. All search for Ber-
natchez has proved fruitless. A bicycle
pump was used to perform the opera
tion. There is some doubt In the minds
of the police as to whether or not the
operation was performed by the young
oman herself or by Bernatchez.

In the course OF talk with q steamship
agent in this city this morning the Cos.
siper was told that there is one company
engaged in the transatlantic business
which can point TO the very remarkable
record OF never having lost passenger.
"Thet company is the Cunard," said the
steamboat agent, "and the Importance OF
such a record will bo all the more appar-
ent when i tell YOU that the compsny's
career goes lack to the time before steam
was used on its vessels, or for that mat
ter on any other. In all that long stretch
OF time the only accidents that happened
were two and they involved the ground
ing of vessels which were later pulled
off and SAVED"
And that recalls the fact that the Shore
Line express, SO familiar TO the people
of this town for nearly 40 years had a re-
markable freedom from accident. En-
gineer Moriarity had charge OF the engine
on the Stonington division for some
thing like 10 years, and during ali that
time he had carried his train and its
hundreds of thousands of passengers to
and fro without mishap of any kind. But
this period of immunity had a break at
last, not for the passengers, for they were
not hurt nor even shaken up, but for
Engineer Moriarity, whose active service
ended with the accident. Ii was a bitter
cold day in midwinter. and the Shore
Line express was bowling along some
where near Kingston station, with En-
gineer Moriarity at his post In the cab.
without warning the big connecting rod
on the driving wheels cracked and parted.
The longer part of IL swung back like a
giant arm and struck the cab on the side
where Morisrity was sitting. The cab
was crushed and the engineer was hurled
from his place back TO the coal i'm ths
tender. He had received frightful blow
on the head, but he knew his duty and
did II The train was tearing on, run
ming wild in fact. There was that piece
OF the fractured connecting rod pounding
at the broken cab with every revolution.
Ii looked like certain death to go back
and brave blow from 1t, yet 1t had to
be done II the lives of the passengers
were to be saved, and Engineer Moriarity
did IT. Crawling back into the cab and
keeping as far as he could from the
swinging rod, he at last succeeded in
shutting off the steam and applying the
brakes. When the train stopred and
some of the passengers and train hands
hurried forward TO find out the cause OF
the stop they found Engineer Moriarity
standing on the ground beside his eng inc
bleeding from the cruel wounds in his
head. He was no longer the Moriarity OF
old. The terrible blow Of the broken
connecting rod ha ID affected him per-
manently, but the corporation was not
ungratefuf IN tfIfs case. for though MORT
arity no longer sat in the cab or mani ipu-
lated the lever or throttle, his name APP
peared on the pay roll for years after, and
may be there today.

Water an Aid, Not a Hin
dranCe to Digestion.
New Law That COuntenanceS
AdulteratiOn of Tea.
E1gineer Moriarty'S Service on the
Shore Line Express.

Most people have heard at one time or
another the statement that we Americans
use altogether too much water at meals.
Indeed, it has been claimed that 10 its
excessive use Is due the fact that we are
almost a nation OF dyspeptics. Like other
people, the Gossiper had neld this notion,
but last night 1t was pretty well knocked
out by the statement of one of the most
successful practicing physicians in the
city. Some one had asked him IL it isn't
q fact that water deferred rather than
promoted digestion, to which he promptly
replied that, used properly, water was
one OF the best possible agencies to pro-
mote digestion. "The fact is." he went
on. "that the thinner the gastric juice
tho more rapid and effective will be the
digestion OF meats and other proteids.
Wnen there IS digested food in the
stomach il hinders the action OF the gas
trio juice on the undigested portion. 1t
is necessary, therefore, TO remove the
digested food as quickly as possible, and
nothing Will accomplish this so well as
water. Ii follows that 1t is good to drink
plenty of water with your meals. i don't
mean that you should wash your food
down with it, but swallow the food first
and afterward drink as much water as
you desire. i know that the prevailing
notion Is that little or no water should
be drank at meals, but this erroneous
notion has doubtless arisen from a mis-
understanding of the advice not to take
water into the mouth before the food is
swallowed, as that practice would cer-
tainly lessen the flow of saliva and i'm
pede digestion.in consequence"
It is proposed to amend the laws relat-
ing to the importation OF tea, so that tea
that has been adulterated up to a certain
point will be admitted, and, OF course,
once admitted it will be sold as pure.
This proposed law does not meet the ap-
provai of one Inrge wholesale dealer in
Providence at least. In chat with the
Gossiper on the subject he said that the
existing Law was bad enough, but the
contemplated new one would be no
better, II, indeed, it.does not in the end
prove worse. "The law as il stands
now," he went on, sis unsatisfactory
and defective, because Ii countenances
the adulteration OF tea up to n certain
point. or practically up TO the point
where II becomes unfit for use. The pro-
posed new law simply seeks to fix a
standard for this aduiteration. Such
thing ought not to be permitted. The Gov
rrnment legislates in favor of pure foods
and against their adulteration, and why
should 1t give its sanction and counte-
nance to tea which, because OF the doctor
ing II has undergone Is almost worth
less? The only honest course for the
government TO pursue Is to pass a strict
general law which will prohibit alto
gether the importation of any save pure
and unadulterated teas. 1t Is a fact that
every ounce OF tea that comes from India
and Ceylon is pure and there is no reason
why teas that come from other countries
should not be equally pure"
