To the Proprietors Of Paine's Celery
Compound
1t gives me great pleasure to indorse
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1897-09-28

Paine's celery compound, both on accosnt
of the results obtained from personal use
of the remedy and knowledge of the re-
| markable cures it has performed. / be-
lieve it has no equal in curing diseases of
thesnervous system and building up those
who are weak and out of health. 1t has
cured several friends of mine of rheuma-
tism in its worst form, and l have no
hesitancy in recommending it to all
afflicted with that disease.
Very truly yours
William W. Henry.
Desperate diseases, such as rheumatism,
blood impurity, neuralgia or nervous de-
bility, that bring down the strength of
the whole body cannot be got rid Of as
one does scratch or sprain, by letting
them cure themselves. Heart weakness,
kidney disease, chronic headaches and en-
larged liver and spleen are not self-termi-
mating disorders. Like ali the desperate
diseases, they demand q thoughtful, sci
entific remedy.
There never has been remedy so thor
oughly grounded in knowledge of what
the sick body needs in these diseases as
Palne's celery compound.
Paine's celery compound Is the remark

and close medical study by that eminent
professor of the Dartmouth and Vermont

and several friends. Waite's courage was
of the best all day. Even during the sem
sational and damaging testimony Of
Detective Brady he maintained his COM.
posure and did not appear to be very
much depressed. His mother and wife
suffered the most and the distress pictured
on their faces when all of the sensational
testimony about their husband and son
was introducted, was pitiful to witness.
Only one side of this case has been
heard SO far and the defense is yet to
come What the defense is to be no one
knows but evidently Waite's attorney,
Edwin E. Heckbert, is determined to
make very strong fight in his behalf.
was little after ten O'Clock when
court came in. Wilbur M. Waite the re-
spondent, who is a tall and intelli-
gent looking man about SO years old, was
brought into court by the sheriff and
given a seat near his counsel, Edwin E..
Heckbert, at the bar. He appeared some
what thinner and paler than before his
arrest and seemed somewhat nervous.
County Attorney Libby, as soon as the
court was seated arose and called for the
case numbered 191, estate against Will
bur NJ. Waite.'' Clerk Libby, following
the usual custom, called upon Waite to
hearken to the names of the jurors who
were to hear the evidence in his case and
decide upon his guilt and innocence and
if any one of them was objected to by
him to challenge him forthwith. Mr..
Libby proceeded to call the panel but
none of the men called were objected to
and they were all sworn in in due form.
Afterwards Clerk Libby called upon
Waite to hearken to the Indictment found
against him by the grand jury and COM
menced to read the long list of fires which
he is accused of having set. These fires
which Waite is held responsible for were
given as follows:
Clapp Block, corner of Elm and Con-
gress streets, December II last.
Clapp building on Middle street. Dec.
II last.
Franklin block on Congress and Brown
streets, December 10.
Salvation Army barracks, December
20.
Rines building on Congress street,
Dec. 81.
Congress Hall block, December %.
Cumberland National Bank building,
Dec. 81.

street, June s.
Cushman building on Congress street,
June IL.
Harrington block on Congress street,
June IA.
Friends Meeting house on Oak street,
June 16.
Charles McCarthy's building on Middle
street near Monument square, July IS.
. The reading of the Indictment took 25
minutes and during the whole time Waite
remained standing with his eyes fixed
upon the clerk and with his arms folded
across his chest.
The county attorney was very brief in
his opening argument. He said that in
the Indictment there were 80 counts but
the respondent was charged with having
set fire to only IL buildings. The several
counts of the different charges were made
to cover the statutes. Mr.. Libby stated
to the jury that after the evidence in this
case had been heard by the panel it
would be left to their copsciences to :

The Affray the Outcome of the Hazie'oh
Strike-Patrons of One Boarding
House March Against Another-Ponce
PowerIess to Check the Riot.
Girardville, Pa, September 21.-At
least nine men received fatal injuries,
andEpossibly two score Others were more
or less seriously wounded in bloody
riot here late last night and early thls
morning. The battle was the outcome
of quarrel over the Hazelton troubles.
Thirty-six men are known to have pcen
wounded and about 40 more are pelhg
secreted by their friends who fear that
they will be sent to jail.
Twelve Of the ringleaders were brought
before Judge Elias Kissinger and ten be-
ore j ustice II. B. johnson. All We're
charged with assault with intent to Kill,
house breaking and rioting and were nelo
in heavy bail for court.
DIR. Charles Schlesmen attended to ~ or
the wounded, nine of whom says VIII
die.
The story of the riot is as follows:
Several hundred Polanders board at
VIM. Culacabbage's houel on Second
street. Joseph Cavenish is proprietor OF
a hotel at the east end of the town, where
several hundred more Poles make their
HEADQUARTERS. Bad blood has always ex-
listed between them for a long time, and
the recent strike troubles at Hazleton
embittered them still more. Last night
matters came to crises. CulacapDage,
it is charged, and his followers TO the
number of several hundred, armed them
selves with guns, revolvers, knives, axes
and clubs and marched to CaVenlsh. s
hotel, where several hunured Oh unelr ne
ememies were celebrating pay day. The
Cayendish men ascertained that their foes
were marching on them and arm1ng
themselves hurriedly, awaited their arrl-
val. After a demonStrative march the
Culacabbage contingent arrived and
stormed the saloon. Then
a bloody battle ensured. The men fought
like demons, the shooting was fast and
furious axes, knives, clubs and other
weapons being used with ueadiy effect.
The battle lasted almost an hour, when
the Culacabbage men were routed, leay-
ing their wounded behind. Everything
in the house was smashed and the floors
strewn with wounded men. The walls
were bespattered with blood and shreds
Of human flesh.
After the routed rioters had returned to
their headquarters, the Cavendish men
armed themselves and marched to their
enemies rendezvous, where a battle still
bloodier than the first ensued.
The police force, and the constables Of
the surrounding region were called to
the scene, but were unable to cope with
| the rioting hordes.
The town people did not sleep wink
all night, and while they watched the pro-
gress of the fight they made no attempt
to interfere. The place was in an uproar,
but is all quiet now and no more trouble

pected that some sensational evidence
might be introduced but the testimony
which was given in the case yesterday
afternoon was much more sensational
than was expected.
In the forenoon the evidence was nearly
all confined to witnesses who had seen
Waite at fires, or who had something to
tell about fires. In the afternoon some
more evidence Of this kind was introduced
and then came the sensation of the day,
County Attorney Libby called upon a
witness whose name was not familiar to
the persons in the court room
Nor did Waite, the accused man, seem
to know who this man was who was
called into the case SO suddenly When
the unknown witness took the stand for
the prosecution there were not more than
half dozen persons in the court room
who knew what he had to say. 1t was
Detective Brady of Boston and he had
not been on the stand 10 minutes when
his sensational testimony had taken the
court by storm and great excite ment
was manifested on all sides.
Brady told how with another detective
from Boston he had come to Portland and
induced Waite by very clever scheme to
confess to them that he had caused all of
the fires in this city during the past year.
More than this the detectives got Waite
to sign statement of all he had done and
this statement was produced and admitted
as evidence.
= Waite not only told the detectives about
setting the fires, SO it was said, but he al
SO told them about some other crimes

ALL SORTS OF HORRORS
Charged Against Cuban Insurgents Who
Took Victoria De Las Tunas.

Havana. September 27.-ADeged details
of the capture of Victoria De Las Tunas
province OF Santiago de Cuba, by the in
srrgent forces have been issued from the
palace here. They say that after the
Spanish troops surrendered the insur-
gents began plundering the stores and
private residences and committed many
brutal acts with women and girls, not
even respecting the sisters of Gen. Vim
cente Garcia, an insurgent leader of the
last war; An aged woman named Nicol-
as is said to have saved her life by throw
ing her jewelry 'sto the negroes and
thereby escaping.
Continuing, the official says: "Then
commenced the horrible mutiliation of
SO volunteers. Pedro Suarez saw his
machetes and afterwards Ramon Rubia
SAW his two sons treated in the same
manner.
"a Nine. Peppillo Santa Ana was
hanged by her feet and burned alive. An
insurgent who lad surrendered openedsshis
veins and the feet of guide of the Spain
ish troops were burned off and the man
was afterwards killed with machetes.
The insurgents also tortured and killed q
soldier who was nearly blind, by burning
his feet.
Madame Fernando Bodano and her
two boys were decapitated as was police
inspector, Machado Ramon Diaz but the
insurgents first cut his legs off and after
wards cut off his arms.
ssThe widow of DIR. Trista was tortured
by having fire applied to the lower part
of her body SO as to oblige her to deliver
up her money to the insurgents
"a Sacristan named Ca1nilo was
hanged by the wrists until dead.

other brutalities committed upon women
and girls. -

One Of the most sensational trials ever
heard in the superior court for the county
Of Cumberland began yesterday morning.
1t was the trial Of Wilbur M. Waite OF
this city on the charge of incendiarism
and arson. The Indictment charges
Waite with being responsible for IL mys-
during the year beginning November 1895
and ending in July.

\. In other words the accused was sus-.
pected and charged with being Portland's s
fire bug who SO long terrorized this city.
Waite was arrested on this charge on
July 80 last at the Preble house by
Officers Wakefield and Heating. The
police officials were decidedly reticent
about the evidence which the state had
against Waite at the time of his arrest
and the public has been awaiting this
trial with great impatience. 1t was ex-

which he had committed and these, ii
anything, were more sensational than
were his admissions about the fires.
There was not very large crowd in
the room during the early morning but in
the afternoon the crowd was much larger
and in fact every seat in the court room
was occupied.
Mrs. Waite and the mother of the &C,
cused were present as were the brother
