The
Ri8htRenledy

The disastrous effects of potash and
mercury, which the doctors always pre-
scribe for Contagious Blood Poison,
should convince anyone that these are
not the proper remedies for this horrible
disease. Instead of forcing the poison
from the system, and getting rid of it
forever, potash and mercury only bottle
it up, and by driving in the outward
appearance of the disease, induce the
patient to think he is being cured. But
he sees his mistake before long, when
his Joints become stiff and his bones
ache-often his hair will fall out by the
handful and if he follows the doctors
advice and continues to take his medi-
cine, his finger nails will drop off.
There is a cure for this destructive
disease, though no doctor has ever yet
cured it. Ofcourse they may pronounce
a patient cured, but the disease has
never failed to return, with increased
severity. SIS. (Swift's Specihc) is a
permanent cure, and is the only remedy
free from harmful ingredients. 1t is
the only blood remedy which is guaran-

Just before one o'clock this afternoon
Judge Hudspeth sent over to the County
Jail for Caspar Ansart and William Leon

he might resentence them. They are

They were tried at the September term,
1895, for breaking into the Danforth ave-
nue. station of the New Jersey Central
Railroad. They were charged with hold
ing up the station agent and making a
murderous assault on him. They might
nave killed him but for o%pportune as
sistance given by a track walker. While
making their escape they ran up Dam
forth avenue and threw some of the
plumber into Prosecutor Winfeld's
grounds. There were several Indictments
against them, including breaking and en-
tering, attempting to kill and larceny,
and they were convicted of all the crimes
charged. Judge Hudspeth sentenced them
to fifteen years in State Prison. The ne
cessity for sentencing them anew was
caused by the Supreme Court setting
aside the conviction of attempting to kill.
Today they were sentenced to ten years
in State Prison for the burglary and
smaller sentences for the other crimes.
The terms are to run concurrently, max
ing ten years in all.

WOULDN'T GIVE UP THE CASH.
Fight Over a Transfer of an Tnsur.
ance Policy.

MS
A suit which involves a technical point
relating to the transfer of an insurance
policy from one insurance company to
another, was brought up for hearing be-
fore Judge Paxton in the Hoboken Dis
trict Court this morning. The COM
plainant in the case was William E.
Wilson, Superintendent of a branch of

city. Rudolph H. Rolide, a grocer of
the Heights, was the defendant.
Some time ago Rolide held a twenty
year endowment policy for 5000 In the
Metropolitan Insurance Company. He
obtained his policy through an agent
named Goodman who subsequently left
the Metropolitan Company and went with
the Citizens Mutual Company.
Tt is claimed thai Goodman after leav-
ing the former company went to Rolide
and represented that the Citizens, Mutual
was the better mpan and could give
him the same kind of a policy as that
which he held for one hundred dollars
less a year. Rolide alleges that Goodman
told him that he could ~stransfer his policy
from the Metropolitan to the Citizens
Mutual without any extra costs. Rolide
consented to make the change and paio
same from Goodman.
week later the policy was issued and
Rolide paid $107 balance of premium. After
the contract was mad Rolide AYERS that
he went to Wilson'S Office and the latter
