Alarms. Shouts. Shots. and Hinally Police Dis
turb Greenpoint's Quiet.
Tho ringing OF q burglar alarm carly yester-
day morning in the house of J. Parker Sloane at
101 Kent avenue. Greenpoint, awakened all tho
inmates. and tho screams of women from front
windows aroused tho neighborhood. Among
tho persons awakened was former Alderman
John A. Connolly. who lives at 90 Kent street.
He ran to q wardrobe and got an old double
barrelled shotgun. He had just adjusted two
caps when the hammers fell, and both barrels
went of together. The discharge tore away
the entire west window of his room on the third
floor, and the recoil OF the gun threw Connolly
to the floor. An investigation by Sloane showed
that a front parlor window had been raised
several inches. After tho excitement was all
over o policeman appeared and asked what the
trouble was about: He pooh-poohed the Idea
worth an investigation.

FREE TREATMENT
MRS. NACk IDENTIFIES A SAW.
she 10 Positive 1t 10 the Ono Used In Cutting
Up Her Murdered Lever.

With duo solemnity and ceremony Mrs.
Augusta Mack was yesterday escorted from her
cell In the Queens County Jail in Long Island
City to the Office of tho District Attorney In the
Same building, and thence into tho Grand Jury
room. where she identified the saw found on
Tuesday as tho implement which Martin Thorn
used in Remembering the body of Gieldsen-
suppe. Mrs. Mack was accompanied by her
counsel, Nanny Friend. Capt. Methven Of
Sheriff Doht's Office guarded tho prisoner. Dis
trict Attorney YounEs and his assistants and
detectives gazed, and all hands took a turn at
questioning the woman. Surrogate A. n. VOL
Ter. who 10 aiding tho District Attorney in the
prosecution of the case. was also present.
While tho implement was an ordinary saw,
differing in no respect from thousands OF the
same make. Mrs. Mack had no difficulty in iden-
tifying 1t positively as the one purchased by
Martin Thorn previous to the murder and which
she and Thorn buried. in the meadows off the
Flushing causeway after cutting up the body of
Thorn's rival. A saw was found in Mrs. NRck's

THE ONLY ONE EVER
FOUND.
The New Dry Air Germicide for
the Cure Of Diseases in
the Respiratory Organs.
NATURES WI REMEDY.
Natures Only Method Of Reaching
the Affected Parts-0isease
Germs Are Inhaled.
BY INHALATION ALONE CAN THEY
Be REACHED AND DESTROYED.

1t has often been said by scientific and
medical men that nature has provided a
cure for every disease, an antidote for every
poison. This saying was never 80 clearly
exemplifed as in the discovery Of HYO-
MEL, the first Dry Air germicide ever
found OF sufficient power to kill the germs
Of all respiratory diseases, yet volatile
enough to impregnate every particle of air
breathed and leave 1t free from moisture.
For years physicians have labored to find
some cure for Catarrh, Bronchitis, Asthma
and Consumption, and statistics show how
utterly they have failed in their efforts,
not one method of treatment of the many
thousands invented being able to produce
two persons cured out of every fifty treated.
This has not been for the lack of a remedy
which would kill the bacilli of disease, but
due to the fact that such remedies could be
used in no other way than through sprays,
douches, atomizers and vapors, which pre-.
cluded all possibility of their ever entering
the bronchial tubes and lungs, where the
disease germs are located. What a con-
trast between these old methods and the
new Since HYOMEI was first discovered
this new germicide, which can be carried
in the air you breathe to the minutest air
cells Of the lungs, has been tested by over
AZ, 900 people In New England alone, and,
although every bottle has been guaranteed,
but eleven persons out of this vast num-
Der have reported no benefit received
and asked for q return of their
money. Is it any wonder, then, the
medical profession now claim tho Austria
liam Dry Air method of treating diseases of
the head, throat and lungs to be the first
and only one by which these diseases can
be reached and cured4

A negress who died the other day in
Z st. Louis hospital was probably the
latest woman ever known. She weigh
ed 900 pounds, and when she was taken
to the hospital 1t was almost impossi-
BILE to get her through the door Of the
ambulance She broke the stretcher on
which they carried her up stairs. and
II took six strong negroes to move her.
When she departed this life 1t took
over half an hour to ascertain that she
was really dead. The layers Of fat

were so thick that Is was impossible to

keep the marriage secret until success

returned to Mt. Holly and claimed his
wife. During all this time they guard
