After this the Christmas week passes
merrily. The guests Of Carronby amuse
themselves with riding. dancing and act
Ing charades, and Lady Mountcarron and
Mr.. Brooke are the gayest and most
mirthful of them all. 1t has been patent
TO all her family that Gladys does not
love her husband. That fact is nothing
new. But she has never openly expressed
her Indifference, nor evinced a palpable
dislike to him. And now she does.
Mr.. Brooke has not taken up his resi-

MRS. ANNIE THOMPSON DEAD.

With Her Last Breath She Accused
 William Conway of Assaulting Her.
 Mrs. Annie Thompson of East street, who is alleged to have been assaulted by William Conway on the night of August 2S,a died late Thursday night, and almost With her last breath she accused Conway of assaulting her. Mrs. Thompson, who was an invalid for several years, was so shocked by the assault that she never recovered. The woman was not able to stand when taken to the city court on September ? to testify against Conway. During the trial Mrs. Conway tainted and had to be taken from the court room.
 Mrs. Thompson had sufficiently re- covered to be about her home, and it was not until Thursday afternoon that the collapse came
 Father Dugan was sent for to admin ister the rites of the church to the dying woman. During her last hours the woman seemed to think that Con- way was again attempting an assault upon her. She died at 9 o'clock Thurs day evening.
 Henry Thompson, the nuSDand or the dead woman, is a baker and works nights for Matthew Cunningham at the corner of William and Bradley streets.
 Mrs. Thompson was young woman about thirty-three years of age. She was born in Dublin, Ireland, and has a sister living in New York. Her maiden name wasAnnie Corcoran. Her married Henry Thompson in this city about twelve years ago, and for the past five years lived in the house where she died They had no children. She bore a good reputation in the neighbor- hood, and it is not believed that she knew Conway except by sight.
 The body was yesterday morning placed in charge of Undertaken Sisk, who reported the case to Medical Elk

aminer White at noon. Dr. White then proceeded to investigate the case, which he subsequently, reported to Cor oner Mix. The examination, as near as could be ascertained did not reveal criminal assault, and a certificate of death by heart failure was given.
 Mrs. Thompson's story, told after wards in court, and since then to her friends, is that Conway pulled her out of bed and attempted to crinlinally as- sault her. She struggled violently and screamed. He choked her, and she was fast becoming exhausted. when Con- way became alarmed at cries for police uttered by neighborsN who heard the row, and fled.
 The alarm was given by Mrs. Nolan who lives up stairs. Her little girl cried out that a man was. murdering Mrs
 Mrs. Thompson. Mrs. Nolan called
 police and her boy Johnnie, who was outside, reached the house in time to see Conway climbing out of a side window.
 By this time crowd had gathered and Patrolman Gates came along Lat CT, with Officer Healy and Sergeant Bradley, he arrested Conway, and at o'clock the next morning took him te Mrs. Thompsons, who identified hin as her assailant.

 Nothing should now interfere with building up the weakened nerves.

 The nxfural unchecked course of dis ease is Yfom bad to worse, as the fall and winter wear on.
 It is not that rheumatism, neuralgia, insomnia, and kidney troubles are hard to cure,-Paine's celery compound has made host of sufferers well,--but people make themselves chronic inva- lids by neglecting the first symptoms of disease.

 This most remarkable of all known remedies has won the sincere approval of the most progressive part of the community. Here is a testimonial re- gently received from the wife of U. s. Senator E. F. Warren of Wyoming, whose distinguished services for the country's best farming interests are so well known
 II was persuaded to try your Paine's celery compound in the early spring when in a very rundown condition. The duties devolving upon the wife of an official in public life are naturally very exhausting, and I was tired out and nervous when I commenced using the remedy. I take pleasure in testi- flying to the great benefit I received from it's use, and can truthfully say that I am in almost perfect health again. If I ever find myself running down again I shall certainly give it another trial, and will in the mean time recommend it to every one need ing it."
 It is a fact verified by the practice of the best physicians and by thous- ands of personal testimonials, that Paine's celery compound makes new, pure blood, builds up the nervous sys- tenn, and cures disease where all other remedies have failed. Its absolute reliability is shown by it's steady employment by trained phy- sicians and in homes made happy by it's unquestioned power of making peo- pie well.
