at this price an adavnce of 80 cents

congregation is more regular than he,

audiences. but when not actively en-
gagged in the conduct of the service he
usually sits beneath the pulpit, being,
it is said. somewhat deaf at times. Dur

Wichita, Kan, Aug. 23.-O. I.
Simons. a well-known real estate brOk-
err, died here from the effects of swal-
lowing a plate of three false teeth three
years ago. The post norton disclosed
the fact that the teeth were still lodged
in the esophagus. This peculiar acct
dent made it impossible for Simons to
cat ordinary food, and forced him to
live entirely on liquids. The swallow
ing of liquid food always caused intense
pain. Eventually his stomach rebelled
against food of any sort, and he liter
ally starved to death.

LEFT 1891 ON A TABLE
TREASURER LEWIS, OF A vAUDE-
VILE COMPANY, WAS ROBBED.
Police Not Inclined to Believe the
Story-LeNfs Was at the
DenisOn House.

David Lewis. treasurer of the Weber &
Fields Vaudeville Company which played
an engagement at the Empire Theater dur
ing the past week, reported to the police
yesterday that he had been robbed of 1881
at the Denison House He said he had car
ried the money with him to his room Fri
day night, with the intention OF changing it
for bills of larger denominations yester-
day morning. He had his property man go
with him and sleep in the room for pro-
lection. The property man arose and
dressed at about o'clock and awoke
Lewis, telling him to lock the door. Lewis
says he was sleepy and did not get UP at
once When he did get up the money was
gone. He says he left the money lying on
the table
The police are not inclined to believe the
story of the robbery. The hotel people are
also inclined to doubt it. Manager thinner
man, of the Empire Theater, says he knows
of no reason why Lewis should invent the
story: He says the company did a good
week S business and also that Lewis is a
man or konor and integrity.

A FRIEND OF THE KAISER.
Attention Shown an Indiana Naval
Officer by German Emperor.

Lieutenant Albert r. Niblack, son of Mrs.
William E. Niblack, of this city, is a naval
attache of the United States embassy in
Berlin. A recent letter from William e.
Curtis of the Chicago Record, says: Lieut..
Niblack was officially invited to witness a
review Of the German fleet in the Baltic
shortly after his arrival in Berlin, where
he was an entire stranger. He presented
himself on board the imperial yacht ac-
cording to the terms of his invitation and
was courteously received by the German
naval offers, but having no acquaintance
on board there was nothing for him to do
but to take a place in the back and wait.
An hour or so after the vessel started out
TO sea the Emperor noticed a quiet unas-
Stunning officer in the uniform of the United
States navy standing alone on the deck.
He inquired his name and Immediately went
to him, introduced himself as one gentle
man to another in private life, and engaged
in conversation. Then he took Niblacks
arm and paced the deck for an hour with
him, conversing as Familiarity as if they
had been old friends At the conclusion
of their walk he presented the lieutenant
to the officers of the ship and other MEM
bers of the party and evidently gave in
structions that he should receive special at
tention, for from that time on the Amer
lean did not have q moment to himself.
Since the accidental meeting the Kaiser
made Lieutenant Niblack his friend and
frequently invites him to the palace, where
he discusses naval matters with him with
the greatest informality.

RELEASE OF M'FADDEN
POLICE INDIGNANT AT THE ACTION
OF JUDGE COX.
Sufficient Evidence to Convict the Man
Who Shot His Wife in
the Neck.

The police are somewhat indignant at
Judge Cox, of the Police Court, for re-
leasing Edward McFadden, who shot his
wife through the neck recently The case
came to trial a few days ago in Police
Court and Mrs. McFadden was not there.
1t was shown that she had gone to Frank
lin so as not to be called upon to testify
against her husband. McFadden had been
admitted to bond, but when it was learned
that Mrs. McFadden was not present, the
prosecutor recommended that the case be
continued indefinitely and that McFadden
be released on his own recognizance This
was done.
The police claim that the case could have
been made against the man without the
testimony Of his wife. Mrs. McFadden was
working as a domestic at a boarding house
on West New York street on the night her
husband shot her. She had a parrot she
wished to sell, and was showing it to three
men who boarded at the house. McFadden
came into the room, and his wife accom-
panied him to an adjoining room. The
three men heard the couple quarreing and
then heard three shots fired. Mrs. McFad-
den came running into the room, scream
ing that her husband had shot her.
Sergeant Crane made the investigation of
the case and he has the names of the three
men who were witnesses, as stated. Mrs.
Mctadden's statement To the police and to
the physicians at the City Hospital are
plain TO the effect that her husband shot
her Mctaddtn, when arrested, practically
admitted that he had done the shooting.
This evidence, the police say was enough
TO nave convicted McFadden of attempted
murder, without the testimony of his wife
Iney think It ought to have been heard by
the police judge. The police think McFad-
den ought to have been bound over to the
grand jury and required to give a reason
able bond for his appearance in the Grim
mai Court for trial Prosecutor Walker
says he thinks McFadden can be arrested
any time If he should be wanted.
