AftemDfed Poisoning.

A warrant has been issued for
the arrest of colored man named
John Thomas, against whom a se-
rious charge has been preferred. 1t
appears that for some time he has
been boarding at thehome of a col
ored woman named Emma Lee and
her two boys. Last Wednesday the
woman and the boys were taken i'll
after partaking of coffee, but re-
covering nothing further was
thought of the matter until Sunday
morning when the woman and her
two sons became very i'll again and
investigation disclosed the fact
that Rough on Rats had been
placed in the coffee pot, and search
being made of the house quantity
OF the poison was found in Thomas
trunk. In the meanwhile he dis
appeared While absolute proof is
wanting that the man attempted to
poison the family. the circumstan-
.tial evidence to that effect is so
strong that the affair has been
placed in the hands of the police:
and his arrest is only matter Of
time. Jealousy would seem to
have been the motive for the crime.

TITS said that some ladies are not
intending to put up any blackber-

fear Of appendicitis. Such fears,

create this inflammation, but it is
only where catarrhal conditions of
the mucuous membrane already ex-
list. There is said to be less of this
ailment in the grape districts of
California than elsewhere in this
country. Put up your fruit and
think nothing of danger in SO doing.
