The coroner's jury yesterday decided
that Mrs. Gaffeney met her death by
violence, but were unable to agree on
the manner of the blow administered,
The evidences Of violence, however, are
so strong that the authorities decided
to let the law take it's course. Accord
ingly the four prisoners were delivered
into the custody of Constable Ira N.
Booth, who took the men to his house
In RoXbury station last night and kept
them closely guarded until this morn
ing.
If the prisoners plead mot guilty"
their hearing will be held before JUS
tice Prindle on Tuesday next in the
town hail. and in the meantime they
will be transferred to the county Jail at
Litchfeld for safe keeping.
John S. Adds a New Milford attor-
ney, has been secured as counsel for
the state, and in his opinion there is
ample evidence to bind the men over
to the higher court. The state will be
called upon to furnish a lawyer for
the defence.

THE SUPPLIES FOR INDIA.
Debate in the Senate Over the Delay in
Shipping Them.

Washington, May 20.-In the senate
to-day Mr.. Hale, rep, of Maine, called
attention to the delays in shipping re-
lief supplies to India. He submitted a
joint resolution reciting that 5000 tons
of grain is now stored in New York
awaiting shipment, and that no Amer
lean merchant ship is available for the
voyage. The resolution provides for
the American registry of the two for
eign built steamships Massaspoqua and
Menantic, owned by Americans, and
the shipment of the relief in these ships
under the flag of the United States,
The resolution led to considerable de-
bate.
Mr.. Chandler, rep, Of New Hamp-
shire, said the simplest remedy was to
send the relief supplies in foreign ships
without naturalizing them.
Mr.. Perkins, rep. Of California, said
American ships had been secured on
the Pacific coast to send relief to India,
and he thought American ships should
be secured on the Atlantic seaboard.
The resolution finally went over.

A certaln cure For pics.

The Pyramid Pile Cure is success be-
cause it has the merit which brings success
It cures every form of piles and cures them
to stay cured Ills now the most popular
and best known pile remedy before the pub
lic and one reason for it's great popularity is
because it has taken the place of surgical
operations, once considered the only sure
cure.
People often wonder that so simple a rem
edy will SO promptly cure such an obstinate
trouble as piles are well known to be. Yet
the greatest remedies and greatest inveu-
tions we have are the simplest, and the fact
that it does cure is all the sufferer from piles
wants to know.
The Pyramid Pile Cure cures piles i'm any
stage of the disease as shown by the follow
ing testimonial letters which are published
every week and new eases reported each
time.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
Michigan Man offers to Send His Dis
oovery Free.
Claims to Be Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.

There is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes man so Over1ows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered.
1t is upon this principal that a resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich desires to send free to
mankind prescription which will cure them
of any form of nervous debility relieves
them of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. As it
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might be
the final result, ought to be deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them to
health, strength and vigor without which
they continue to live an existence Of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
f. t..i.'E to mon the strength they need, it
would e"c'a that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy at omen. A request to II. c..
Od5, Box 17l2, Kalamazoo, Mich, stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
ont Of idle curiosity, but that you wish to
make use of the medicine by giving ita trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this out
and send to Mr.. Olds so that he may know
how you came to write him. 12-2S-7St
