THREATS TO KILL
George Laydan's Retaliation for a
Charge of Embezzlement

George Laydan is locked UP in the
city Jail with a charge of embezzle-
ment hanging over his head. In addi-
ton to this, and as a consequence of his
pilfering, a second, charge of making
threats to kill is booked against him.
Mrs. Alice Hoffman is widowed dress
maker living at 231 Winston street.
Among the mementoes of her departed
husband, she possesses a couple of old
fashioned rings, $3.50 gold piece, a
gold dollar and some other unusual coins.
Laydan, knowing her, approached her
and asked the widow to lend him the
keepsakes to show to friend. This the
widow did, after some urging, on the
promise of a speedy return of the bor-
rowed goods. Laydan then went away
and Mrs. Hoffman alleges that he has
not and will not return her keepsakes!
She threatened to have him arrested,
but the things were not forthcoming.
On the contrary, Laydan became
wroth at the insistent widow, and said
rude things. Mrs. Hoffman declares
that when she threatened arrest, Laydan
swore that if she carried out her threat
he would get some vitriol land spoil her
beauty" Incensed and frightened, she
swore out two complaints against him,
one for embezzlement and the other for
threats to kill. Constable Tom Quinn
captured Laydan yesterday afternoon
and locked him in Jail.

A Tried Remedy for Biliousne.s

Those who suffer from disorder or mac
ton of the liver will never get the upper
hand of the unruly organ so long as they
use such irrational remedies as blue pill,
calomel and podophyllin. But from the
tried and popular medicine, Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, they may expect relief
with a certainty of obtaining it, The in
fuence of the bitters upon the great hillary
gland is direct, powerful and speedily felt.
The relief afforded is not spasmodic, but
complete and permanent. The sallowness
of the skin, furred appearance of the
tongue, indigestion, costiveness, headache.
nausea. pains through the right side and
shoulder, in fact every accompaniment of
the obstinate complaint are entirely and
promptly removed by course of this in
estimable medicine, in behalf of which tes-
timony is constantly emanating from
every quarter, and from all classes of So
cety.

AN INSANE CASE
The Daughter of a Lady Doctor Sent
to Highlands

Yesterday Miss Mabel Guild was or
dered committed to Highland hospital
by Judge Smith, on the recommendation
of medical examiners Drs. Brainerd and
Wernigk.
The case was a very sad one, for the
patient, who is 26 years old, appeared in
such marked contrast to her three sis
ters who appeared as witnesses. The
girls are daughters of Mrs DR.. Caroline
Guild, residing on Flower street, and are
with the exception of the patient hand
some appearing young ladies. 1t ap-
peared that an insane taint had been
manifested on the fathers side and, ap-
parently, had again developed in the
case of his daughter Mabel. The latter
while pale and haggard in appearance
and utterly careless in her attire, spoke
nationally and so far gave no signs of
mental disturbance. She has suffered
from delusions, however, and on two oc
casions has in fits of temper made as
saultS upon her sisters.
