Death of Arthur F.. Harmsworth, a Vel
 Known Estimable Citizen.

Death of Arthur F.. Harmsworth, a We'll
 Known Estimable Citizen.
 A large circle of friends is called to mourn the death of Arthur E. Harms worth, young and estimable man, aged twenty-eight, who passed away at about eight o'clock last evening at his home. No. 62 Lyon street. He died of acute appendicitis after very brief illness After having felt indisposed for several days he became dangerous ly i'll day before yesterday. The case was readily diagnosed as one of acute appendicitis and an operation was per formed as soon as possible, as the only hope of saving his life. It was a des- perate case from the start. The opera ton was performed on Thursday even- ing. The patient rallied from the op- eration, but the disease, as the opera ton disclosed, had made too great progress to admit of his recovery, the appendix being perforated and the in- fiammatory condition having spread into his system. The operation was performed by Dr. B. Austin Cheney, assisted by Dr. Sanford jand Dr. os- born.
 The deceased was bookkeeper for N. T. Bushnell & O., and was a young man very highly esteemed by all who knew him. He leaves wife, the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Joseph A. Bromley, with whom MT. and Mrs. Harmsworth resided.

A COURT SENSATION

Bridgeport, Jan 22.-A sensation was caused in the superior court room this morning, when Judge Ralph Wheeler turned to the case of Mrs. Alice Clark of Norwalk, who recently instituted a suit against Commodore Francis Bur- ritt of Norwalk to recover $13,0OO which she claims he owes her for board and borrowed money. Commodore Bur- ritt's counsel this morning asked per- mission to amend his answer to the ef- feet that the note for s3,000 which the plaintiff holds against him was given to her to bind an agreement that she should live with him as his wife with out submitting to a ceremony of any kind. This, he contends, was illegal, and the agreement should not hold in law. The other debts he denied abso- lutely.
 Ex-State Attorney Olmstead protest ed strenuously against this step, but Judge Wheeler allowed the answer to be thus amended.

erally lower, the decline being equal to 1sp5s per cent. but subsequently Gen. eral Electric advanced from 34 to 35A, Sugar from 1169s to 117& Burlington and Quincy from 74% to 751h, St. Paul from 7594 to 76as. Rock Island from 679s to 6Sss, Chicago Gas from IT'S to IS1s, and Manhattan from 911a to SEA,
 A part of this improvement was lost at the close The feverishness of spec ulation was due to various causes. The Hooking Valley securities sustained an other serious drop, the common selling i down from HE to 9, while the bonds yielded 6QS1a points on a revival of the rumors about an impending receiver ship. The common stock rallied to IL on statements by officials of the com pany that no receivership is likely and that a settlement of the bituminous coal troubles will probably be effected early next week.
 The recent reduction in the dividend on Delaware and Hudson from to b per cent. is still exercising an adverse influence on the anthracite coalers Delaware and Hudson fell 8, to 1071s; Lackawanna 2A, to 1852; Jersey Cen tral 1A, to 99A, and Reading %, to
  26A.
 American Tobacco broke nearly two points, to 75. after it became known that Judge Fitzgerald had decided that the directors indicted for conspiracy must stand triad, but there was a re- covery to 76 at the close. Big Four fell 1'4, to 27%, while Union Pacific ad- vanced 1%, to 78 on the expectation of favorable developments concerning the proposed reorganization of the prop erty.
 Long Island recovered 21s, to 431s, on the denial of the story that the deal for the transfer of the Austin Corbin stock to syndicate had fallen through. Speculation closed weak in tone.
 Net changes in the usually active stocks were insignificant either way, but Delaware and Hudson lost 2 per cent.
 Bonds were lower to-day. The trans actions footed up $1, 900.

Paine's celery compound has never yet failed to cure.
 Where all other medical treatment has failed to relieve, Paine's celery compound has succeeded time and time again.
 John w. Boyd of Mishawawka, Ind, says of his own case:
 Last winter was taken down with a very severe attack of nervous and muscular rheumatism, so bad that could not lie down, sit up, or stand, without the most excruciating pain. I was all the time under the care of two of the best physicians of the place, but did not improve. I took different rheumatic cures and used an electric battery half an hour each day for ten days, without any relief.
 Finally I concluded to try Paines celery compound, and to my surprise after using one-half of a bottle I was able to get out and vote on election day; and before used the whole bottle

went to work, and have worked every day since. I have gained 20 pounds in weight and am feeling first-rate.
 My wife has also been taking 1t for nervousness, and thinks that there is nothing like it. We both recommend it to all of our acquaintances, and you are at liberty to use this letter as you see fit for it truly worked wonders in my case"
 And Paine's celery compound is working just such wonders in every state county city and village of the country to-day
 The reader must know someone who has tried 1t. Ask that person If he or she was not at once benefited!
 Don't let a dealer palm off anything else on you, however, for there is as much difference between Paine's cell cry compound and all the ordinary sar- saparillas. tonics. nervines and com pounds, as there is between an electric motor and a boys windmill.
 There is power to cure in Paine celery compound.

 He Says That His Companion Was Faith less to Him-Went Away from Her and

 The trial of Thomas F. Ripple for the murder of his wife on January Sl of last year was resumed at 10 o'clock yesterday morning. Patrolman McKeon, tective Jeremiah McGrath and Sergeant Cowles were the last witnesses exam ined by the state. Coroner Eli Mix was called for the defence. He detailed at length the facts concerning the investi- gation wade at the time the murder was committed and also testified to the manner of Ripple during the progress of the inquest.
 Sergeant Cowles, who was with Kip pie for two hours on the night of the murder did not think he was drunk, but could see that he had been drinking.
  known Ripple to be a. hard drinker.
 John Welch, also of Bridgeport, knew of Nipples being drunk at times.
 Elias Ringrose, an iron moulder or New Britain, testified at length as to Kippie's early life and also told some thing of the family.
 MT. Ringrose was excused and Thom as b. Smith of New Britain, who had known the accused man since both men were small boys, was called. He re- membered when both Nipples mother and father died. He knew nothing about the father and mothers habits, but he had seen Tom drunk frequently. He used to be drunk when he was four teen years old. He met him on the train coming from New York on Octo- Der "A, 1885, when he thought that Kip pie was out of his mind. He acted very strangely and could not remem- Der the witness. He told the witness that he had been in Dayton, O., and Chicago, and was on his way to New Haven He was twitching and jump ing around and had violent look in his eye" which scared the witness. His language was unintelligibe.

She heard the prisoner and his wife quarreling during the 30th of last January. Mrs. Ripple spoke in a harsh voice and said, T won't live with you nor go with you" Then she heard Mrs. Ripple say again, You'll die, too" Ripple said, You are the only woman I love- In cross-ex- animation witness remembered that Ripple said: Mary, I'll kill you If you don't do as I want you"
 James F. Clancy was called at 2 o'clock He was one of the states wit nesses Thursday. He said Ripple all ways appeared to him to- be under the influence of liquor, or was mad, angry. Cross examined, witness said Ripple picked" a. fight with him once. MT. Tyner called John Wrinn, but he was not in court. Mrs. Calhoun was also called but she, too, vas absent.
 KIPPIE ON THE STAND.
 At 2:15 o'clock Ripple was called to testify in his own behalf. Two deputy sheriffs attended him and sat on either side of the stand during the whole of the time that he was testifying. The prisoner was handcuffed and held up both hands while the oath was being administered.
 Ripple said that he was about forty years old. He did not know where he

MAKING 4 GOOD SHOW.
DiSpenSary Cut of Money
for the Schools.

1t looks as if the dispcnsary is
at last going to show some tangi-
bic results as to money making.
Commissioner Vance stated YES
te"day that all the dispensary
now owed was 10000. and. that
he had 100000 in the bank to pay
it, and had sent to all the cred
itors to draw on him for the
amount due. This will leave $5O,-
600 cash besides about $35O.OOO
of stock on hand, which is a
splendid showing for the institu-
ton. Commissioner Vance saws
that if business keeps up, as he
expects it and nothing unforeseen
happens, he will be able to pay
all the dispensary is due the gen
eral fund by October 1st, and have
about $1,000 to go to the school
fund at that time.
Thereafter he hopes and ex-
poets to pay into the school fund
about $25,0OO month. This will
be good news to the people and
patrons of the schools and tax
payers generally, all of whom
will hope that Mr.. Vance will not
be disappointed in his expecta-
tions. When the board of control
meets in special session next
week to consider the matter of
the beer privileges. Col. Vance
will be able to report the dispen-
sary out of debt.

No
Patchwork!

One of the most encouraging feature.
OF a cure made by SIS. (Swift's Specific
is its permanency. OF all diseases, it is
we'll known that those of the blood are
the most obstinate, and therefore the
most difficult to cure. The medical
profession, in fact, have virtually ad-
mitted that a real, deepseated blood
disease is beyond their skill.
OF course, their admission is not made
in so many words, but actions speak
louder than words, and their inability to
cure, after months and often years of
treatment, is sufficient evidence that dis
eases of the blood cannot be cured by
doctors. Their mercurial mixtures, al
though taken faithfully, only cover up
the symptoms of the disease, inducing
the patient to feel that he is being cured;
but when he is sooner or later seized
with stiff joints, pain in the bones, etc.,
the evidence of the doctors patchwork
is conclusive. Such results cannot be ex-
pected from the use of S. S. S. Being
purely vegetable, containing no harm
full mineral ingredients, it is the only
blood remedy which acts on the true
principle of forcing the disease from
the system, building up rather than
tearing down the health. No loss of
hair, no stiff joints, no decrepit mercu-
rial wrecks result from the use of S. SIS.

ONE OF TWO WAYS.

The bladder was created for
one purpose, namely, receptacle
for the urine, and as such it is
not liable TO any form of disease
except by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action
of the kidneys. The second way
is from careless local treatment
of other diseases.

CHIEF CAUSE.

Unhealthy urine from un
healthy kidneys is the chief cause
of bladder troubles. SO the
womb, like the bladder, was Gre
ated for one purpose, and if not
doctOred too much is not liable
to weakness or disease. except in
rare cases. 1t is situated back of
and very close to the bladder,
therefore any pain or lnconven
ience manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage
is often, by mistake, attributed to
female weakness or womb trou-
bic OF some sort. The error is
easily made and may be as easily
avoided. To find out correctly.
