MARTIN THORN.


He Received the Sentence TO be EIectrocu
ted in New York.
New York, Dec. 5.--Martin Thorn, or
Torceswisky, convicted on Monday of
the murder of VIM. Guldensuppe, was
yesterday sentenced to be electrocuted
in the week beginning January 10,
1898.
When Thorn was brought in to the
court in Long Island City he stepped
as briskly, walking between two Off
GERS, as he had on the days when he
was on trial. He preserved the same
calm, imperturable expression of coun-
tenance that he had worn at every
crisis in the working out Of his fate
during the trial and when, as a pre-
liminary to the passing of sentence of
death, Justice Maddox put the custom
airy question to him, He responded
promptly, collectedly and without out
ward evidence of emotion; my true
name" said the murderer, "is Torces-
wisky, l was born in Germany, and
am 35 years old. l am barber and
have never been in prison before. l
was brought UP in the religious belief
of the Roman Catholic church. / can
read and write. My father is living. L
am not married"
Then Judge Maddox proceeded to
pass the sentence solemnly and i'm
pressively. He said:
Thorn you were indicted, charged
with having pror,adiotad11r apI ,io1fb.
erately designed and caused the death
of VIM. Guldensuppe. You have had
fair trial, in the course of which you
were defended by the ablest and most
astute counsel. They could not have
done more for you. Every effort was
made by them to save you. After that
the jury found you guilty of murder
in the first degree and the punishment
for that is death. Reflect upon it. Re-
fleet upon the death of him whom you
slew. 1t is the duty of the court to fix
time for the execution-the law pro-
nounced the punishment. l shall give
you a reasonable time--the law allows
me to do that. 1t is needless for me
to state anything touching the facts
in the case, more than to say that the
evidence justifies the verdict.
1.-THE judgment of the court is that
you shall be taken hence to the state
prison at Sing Sing within reason
able time and that there you shall be
executed in the form prescribed by
law in the week beginning January 10,
r1S9S."
Thorn listened without moving a
muscle and when the judge had fin
ished he inclined his head slightly for
ward as if bowling to the court The
prisoners lawyers then handed up an
affidavit applying for an appeal. JUS
tice Maddox took the affidavit and wiff
pass on it later.
Thorn was then led to the Jail below.

Fort W0rtl Texas, December g.
The cat.icmen of Texas are just now
much worried as to whether :he Fed
eral authorities will establish the quar-
antlne IL January Instead oe February
there is as heretofore. There is no
doubt that such a thing is being CON
Sldered and some of the authorities
advocate such step because they
claim that when cattle are allowed to
go from fever-infected districts to
points above the quarantine line too
Late in the winter there is not enough
cold weather thereafter to kill the young
ticks that may be Matched out If by
any possibility the quarantine should
be c,osed down in January 1t would
catch many cattle ON this side of the
line that would otherwise be moved
above.
The announcement made by the
Louisville and Nashville of twenty
three hours and fifty minutes schedule
between Louisville and New Orleans,
created quite Il stir in railroad circles
Other lines are already making their
plans to cut the time.

THE HUBER CASE.
A Remarkable Occurrence Detailed In

PoRr HURON. Nov. s.-"rhe case of young Ellis

1 don't think II approaches nay own experience In
any respect" remarked Mr.. q. L. Huber, u we'll
known baker, living on Huron Avenue In this city.
III had diabetes of such . malignant type that
was blosted to twice my natural size. I used W
drink from ten to twelve large cups Of tea coffee
NJ every meal paItook of. The doctors, one Of
whom WAS specialist, said could not possibly re-
cover, and that had not more than six months 10
live.
"I began the use of Dodds Kidney Pills and be-
fore had used box the extreme thirst was
gone, and enjoyed wonderful relief. by the time
the third box finished, the bloatng had vanish
ed and to-day am a we'll man, just strong and
healthy and energetic u any In this city. have
tested what Dodd's Kidney Pills wi do, and they
a wonderful medicine"
Said city druggist speaking of this case :
"There IL no town that produce a more re-
markable cure than this. II a veritable resur-
rection, due solely and entirely to Dodd Kidney
sales we are having, nor at the great difficulty We
find In keeping them IN stock"
The druggists know that Dodds Kidney Pills
the most reliable medicine before the people. IL IL
proved every day I'm every drug store In the city.
No other medicine sells In such enormous quanti-
ties. because other medicine win kidney
diseases. This Dodd's Kidney Pills do without fail,
hence their great popularity. There il no doubt
about their effect. They have cured every case Of
Brights disease, diabetes, paralysis, heart disease
and every other kidney disease for which they have
been used.
