Two Women Plead in Vain.

Ithaca, April 2O,--Two women were
arrested here last night at the in
stance of Joel Hanford, who several
weeks ago fell into the hands Of bunco
men in New York. He finally had one
of the principals Taylor, arrested, in
dicted and imprisoned. The two wo-
men, one about forty, the other about
twenty-five, arrived in Ithaca yester-
day morning. They were well dressed
and of good appearance, and went tc
Hanford's house and represented them
selves as Taylor's wife and daughter
They offered Mr.. Hanford inducements
not to appear as witness against Tay-
Tor at his trial.
Hartford rejected their overtures and
notified the district attorney after they
left his house. The women were not
disturbed until they were about to take
the New York train last night, when
a policeman placed them under arrest
They were arraigned before the re-
corder and held until to-day for ex-
animation. They were allowed to go
to the hotel on parole They expected
some friends from New York this morn
ing who did not come, and they en-
gagged the services of Lawyer Baker to
look after their interests.

Sage. Julius P. Herman and Charles
Pustalka, the two wife murderers, will
pay the death penalty for their crimes
in the electric chair on Thursday short
ly after IL o'clock.
Warden Sage said to-day that the
reason he had decided to. postpone the
executions until Thursday was that the
two murderers might have some time to
prepare for death, They have not been
notified when they will be put to death,
and the first they will know about the
date will be when the warden goes into
their cells to tell them to go to the death
chair,
The cases of the two men were taken
to the court Of appeals, and on April
IA were decided against them. The
date of the execution was set for the
week beginning yesterday. When the
appeal was taken 1t was thought that
the court of appeals would not decide
their cases until after the time fixed
for the executions had expired, This
would necessitate the resentencing OF
the two men and the executions would
go over for several months. Neither
man has made any preparations to meet
death, and when the case was decided
against them Warden Sage said he
would give them time to prepare them
selves. Both men Informed the war
den, when he told them there was no
hope for them, that they were ready
and willing to meet death. They only
asked the warden to feed them we'll I'M
til they We're summoned to die.
The machinery In the death house has
been tested and everything is in readi-
ness for the execution. State Electro
clan Davis will have charge of the exc
| cutions. This will make the second
time in the history Of Sing Sing that
there was more than a single execution
at one time The first was soon after
the law was put in force, when four
murderers paid the penalty in the death
| chair.

UyDER THE RAINES Ian.
A Light Lunch and Beer-Surprising In

A Light Lunch and Beer-Surprising In
crease of "Hotels.'
New York April 20-If the Raines
law was intended to prevent the Sunday
sale of liquor in the metropolis it was
dismal failure in that respect yester-
day.
1t is said that when the excise COM
missioners stopped doing business on
Saturday over 800 saloons had taken
out hotel licenses. Just how many Of
these hotel saloons were open for bus
mess yesterday is matter of guess
work. 1t Is safe to say, perhaps that
as many of them as could get ten sleep
ing rooms fitted UP before Sunday
morning dawned did what they could
yesterday to save people from dying Of
drought.
OF course it was necessary to serve
something to eat with the drinks in or
der to comply with the law. In most
cases the meal for which payment
was required was less than the aver
| age customer ate of a free lunch. In
some places 1t was a cracker, in others
1t was sandwich and in others it was
eggs. There was, as rule, little inter-
ference with the saloon hotels, despite
Chief Conlin's orders to the captains on
Saturday to arrest the saloon men who
didn't comply strictly with the require
ments of the law.
1t was on the lower east side that
there was the greatest increase yester-
! Gay in the number of New York hotels.
Andy Horn was landlord for the first
time in his life yesterday. His board
ers,' in the vast majority, sought en-
trance to the hotel from the Park Row
side. They found it locked, and the
whole barroom exposed, On the door
! however, was a sign announcing that
the hotel entrance was on North Will
| liam street.
The hotel entrance was not imposing.
1t was narrow pair Of riclSety stairs
that lead ordinarily to the rear of the
saloon. Once on the main floor the
boarder had another fight of stairs to
climb before reaching the dining
room" In the dining room were q
number of tables, most of which were
occupied by Andy's "boarders' On
each table was written bill Of fare
The menu included eggs, hard and soft
and sandwiches, ham and cheese. AL
the boarders had to do to get a drink
was to order something from the bill Of
fare. Horn said that he had partition
| ed off ten rooms on the floor above the
dining room. He added that he had
been so busy that he hadn't had time
| to get a hotel register, but he'd run
| the risk of any of his "boarders" leav-
/ ing with unpaid bills.

Only One Life Reported Lost.

Montreal April 20.-Dispatches from
points along the st. Lawrence. river
state that the ice is now rushing down
stream and that danger Of further
floods is at an end. So far as reported
only one life was lost as a result of the
late inundation The victim was John
Yates, a prominent resident of the
Eastern Townships. He left Sher-
brooke on Wednesday night last to
drive to his home, five miles west of
there. Yesterday he and his horse were
found drowned in culvert in the high
way.

are all right in season. But this isn't
their season. Oh, no. Phew!
If your black shoes are in good con-
dition, take them off, as soon as you buy
new yellow shoes, and give them sum-
mer vacation. Better for the shoes. Bet
ter for your feet.
The so-called yellow shoes Of to-
day are probably doing more for health
and comfort than any other modern inven-
ton
But they can do nothing for you
unless you put them on to your feet.
People cast off warm clothing from the
body. Why not from the feet?
Whatever you do, don't buy paper or
straw shoes because they're fifty cents
less. They're not fifty cents cheaper.

alone with a circulating medium sufh-
cient for all demands of the people.
The statement that gold furnishes a
safe basis is delusion and snare.
A resolve upon the part of the people
TO demand gold as payment of one
days labor or business would burst
the bubble. The circulating medium
Of this nation is in reality based upon
the faith of the people, and nothing
in the shape of gold sustains it. Every
time man buys a dollars worth of
meat or flour he redeems the dollar
he expends. He need not question the
future of that dollar; it has served
its purpose with him and that is
sufficient; in fact, that is all that
money is intended to do. or can do, for
it is intended to represent value and
need not be of itself intrinsically valu-
able. The redemption is not in eX-
changing one kind of dollar for an
other. but in getting pay for the dol
lar in food and clothing.
eff free and unlimited coinage is re-
stored, it will benefit the owners of
silver mines and give us an eighty-cent
dollar" is another fear entertained,
Such an argument applies with equal
! force against the use of gold, for our
gold mines monopoly over all others.
The monopoly enjoyed by gold en-
ploys but little labor in comparison
with what would be employed if silver
were admitted to free coinage: a slim
illus would be given to labor in the
West, and the prosperity of that part
of the country could not possibly have
bad effect on the East. In any event
| to ask for free coinage is not the
heretical demand the apologists for
gold would have us believe, for it is
only demand for what we had and
enjoyed from the founding of the Re-
public up to 1873. Shall we have an
1eighty-cent dollar running neck and
neck with one containing one hundred
cents? Remonetize silver, and it be-
comes as legitimately a dollar as is
gold; the sliding scale which is ex-
pressly provided may at all times de-
| termine the ratio between the two
coins, and, once remonetized, the com
modify value of silver will cease to
exist

Twas but a touch from lips, whose
rare-ripe crimson
Had stolen all the summer roses
bloom,
But yielded back in fragrant, balmy
breathing
Their subtitle, sweet perfume.
Twas but a glance, one exquisite brief
instant
Two liquid, dreamy eyes gazed full in
mine;
Then quickly fell their dusly silken
fringes;
Yelling their splendor, liquid, dark
While into dimpled cheeks, a tender
Crept up, and deepened meath my ar
dent gaze
So the soft pink, a rosebud's early
Deepens to crimson meath the day
gods rays
My arm held close tine slender, girlish
figure;
The waist as suppleas a willow wand
And on my shoulder, softly as a snow
flake,
She shyly Laid trembling, little hand,
And then for one, brief, exquisite,
half second,
Two glowing, velvet lips were pressed
to mine,
And from their rosy brink 1 quafT

TO JULIAN SHAKESPEARE CARR

He seems a splendthrift in philanthro-
phies,
But gives so wisely that in giving
more
The Giver of all good adds to his store
And blesses all his princely chart
ties.
He learned the true philosophy of
wealth;
He knows its gospel-sees that every
gift
OF his encourages respect and thrift,
And he knows well how to do good by
stealth.
He knows how to give quickly, giving
twice.
He is an artist in benevolence,
Who gives with genius, but with
common sense,
Else he had made of charity a vice
His question is not, 'sHow much shall
/ give?'
Amid his generous giving and his
gain
But rather, "How much wealth dare
/ retain ~
A thought like this makes it worth
while to live.
A tender heart-so much so that he
must
At times apologize for being kind
And yet withal clear judicial mind,
Which feels the burden of the smallest
trust.
sThe short and simple annals of the
poor
Gods poor-have always stirred his
gracious heart;
He was of them, their struggles are
a part
OF his endeayors, what he bravely bare.
More blest is he who gives than who
receives,
For God gave him rich bounty from
above;
Crowned with the largest of his peo-
pies love
Such love no room for greater honors
leaves.
Ambition called. He needed not its
The people cast their tributes at his
feet
And offered all. But-fame and Joy
complete!-
1t was enough to know he was their
choice.

SUFFERING FOR Al LIFE TIME.

Persons afflicted with rheumatism
often suffer for life time, their tor
lures being almost without remission.
The joints and muscles of such unfor-
Inmates are In most cases shoclxingly
contorted and drawn out of shape. To
afford them even temporary relief, the
ordinary remedies often prove utterly
useless. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
oil the other hand. is avouched by per-
sons who have used it, to be a genuine
source Of relief. 1t keeps the blood cool
by promoting a regular habit of body,
and removes from it impurities which,
in the opinion of all rational patholo-
gists, originate this agonizing COM
p amt, and its kindred malady, the
gout. Besides this the Bitters remedy
disorders for the stomach, liver and
nerves, prevent and eradicate intermit-
tent and remittent fevers, promote APP
petite and sleep, and are highly re-
commended by physicians as desir-
able medicinal stimulant and tonic.
