THE new steamer Kaiser Wilhelm
der Crosse is evidently a good deal of
a ship and, judging from her first
runs across the Atlantic, is likely to
break the record repeatedly. 1t
would not be easy to sink her, as she
has eighteen separate water-tight
compartments. In her hold could be
slowed a sky-scraper weighing 25,-
600, 900 pounds, with plenty of room
left. Placed on end, she would over
top the tallest building in New York
by more than 300 feet. 1t would take
sixty railway trains Of twenty cars
each to fill the space provided for
freight. While she is 43 feet shorter
than the Great Eastern, she has the
advantage in horse power in the pro
portion of $4,000 to S,OOO and that is
the reason the new leviathan out
runs the old.

Camden, N. j., oct. 15.-The au-
thcrities Of this city are apparently as
far as ever from discovering the muir
derer or murderers of Mrs. Shaw and
her aged mother, Mrs. Zane, who We're
shot apparently by burglars on Tuesday
morning. 1t begins TO look as though
the guilty ones win never be aPpre-
hended. Chief of Police Dodd stated
today that he had run out all the clues
furnished him and none of them was
productive of any results. During the
day Charles Higgins, a nephew of the
elder woman, who had been looked for
by the police, called at police head
quarters in Philadelphia and convinced
them that he had no connection with
the crime. The coroner's jury yester-
day viewed the premises and left with
the opinion that the window glass
through which the thieves are pre-
sumed to have entered was broken from
the inside.

A SHORT STORY
In WiIllesbarre Interesting to
the Public at Large.

LlG ubAi1 at Lul &Cs
Many a reader of this in Wilkesbarre has
seen the large watch sign, that hangs out at
40 North Main street. 1t is there to tell the
people who see it that Robert W. Haight
matchmaker etc, can be found at that loca-
ton, and perhaps you may doubt the follow
ing, in which case you can always find Mr.
Haight at his address ready and pleased to
verify it. Matchmaking as it is called, is no
doubt thought to be a comparatively easy
business on the constitution of a man, but
this is not the case. The constant STOPPING
position maintained while at work brings
with it many aches aud pains Such positions
in time effect the action Of the kidneys, and
this is just what it did in the case Of Mr.,
Haight, and he began to look for a remedy
that would relieve. At last he was rewarded.
One day he read Of Doans Kidney Pills.
Nothing was claimed for them, but that they
were a kidney cure All the ills that flesh
is heir TO were not set down as being subject
to their wonderOus influence and this in
spired confidence in them. The symptoms
described by kidney sufferers were his
/ symptoms. He began taking them. Three
/ or four doses brought a change, and day by
/ day he grew better, now he says 81 am
entirely oyer my trouble. Home remedies
/ I have used but found but little relief of a
| temporary nature. My greatest trouble wa.
/ lameucss and stiffness in the back, with sharp,
shooting pains in the region Of the kidneys
| I consider DOan's Kidney Pills a good and
safe remedy and l recommend them to
others" No better proof Of merit can be
offered than the plain facts as stated by those
! who know by experience. Call ON Mr. Haight
| if you doubt this.

Of coffee. The more Gnin-O you give the

through their systems. Grain-O is made OF
pure grains, and when properly prepared

The Rats and the Missing Check.

A remarkable incident is brought
to our notice by the Bristol post
office, and, what is more, it is story
with moral. Some days ago let
ter containing a check for upward
of $500 was posted to a gentleman's
business address in the city, and, al
though there was proof that it was
delivered the same evening, the adj
dressee complained that the impor-
tant missive had not reached him.
Subsequently, however, it occurred
to him that as his business premises
were infested with rats, and as
everything put through the aper-
tu-..aa- / he door. in tAasabsence of a
letter box, dropped to the floor, the
postal authorities might not, after
all, be responsible for the strange
disappearance of the letter. A search
which he instituted was completely
successful. On looking behind a
corn bin he discovered to his aston
ishment two huge rats actually
fighting for the possession of a dust
besmeared envelope, which on be-
ing opened was found to be none
other than the one that contained
the heck.-Bristol Mercury.
