Matthews Refused to Testify and
Mrs. Irwin Was Freed.
In the trial of Mrs. Irwin at. Baltimore
yesterday for completely in the murder of
her husband, after her father had told
about being informed by her of the murder
and his inspection Of the remains, George
Matthews, the convicted murderer. was
called. He came into court and stood
at the desk with Warden Smith and Bailiff
Mcneil, Immediately behind him. Clerk
White offered him the Bible on which to
be sworn, but he would not touch it, and so
the clerk reported to the Judge:
We'll, then, you can affirm" said the
Judge, IF that will bind your conscience I"
Il don't want anything 10 do with it,"
said Matthews, his voice shaking with sup
pressed emotion,
DO you mean you won't testify in the
case?" asked Judge Wickes
II won't have anything to do with it, re-
piled Matthews again.
Don't you recognize it is your duty to
testify in this case?" asked Judge Wickes
Matthews became rather surly and was
silent
Then the judge asked him again whether
he did not think it was his duty to speak
This time Matthews spoke for the first
time in a firm tone of voice.
No, sir, l do not" he said. Il think 1
have done all l had any right to do.
made my escape and went back there and
let them try me. They would not let me
testify down there and 1 won't testify here
that much is certain"
Are you willing or not willing to testify
In this Case?"
Il am not willing" replied Matthews, in
g firm voice.
Very well. then, take him below" said
the judge.
Mr. Posey and Mr.. Duffy consulted, and
finally announced that they had no more
evidence to offer. They put their heads
close together before they came to this
conclusion. Mr.. Mudd said that there was
no evidence to submit for the defense and
ten minutes after Matthews had been led
into the court room, Emma Irwin was
free woman.
Great excitement prevailed in the court
when her acquittal was announced, and a
crowd of over five hundred persons gather
ed about the court house, waiting to see
the acquitted woman step out into the
world again free, after as exciting an ex-
perience as ever woman passed through.
She nearly tainted with JOY when the jury
said Not guilty.

Fresh air and plenty of pleasurable ex-
ercise are good for a woman. But un-
fortunately all women are not rich. Most
women have work to do-duties to per-
form; duties that sometimes, wrongly.
seem more important than her health.
Nine women in ten have some trouble
peculiar to their sex because they are
careless, because they have inherited
weakness, because they neglect little
symptoms that grow into health-wreck-
ing disorders
Over so years ago DR.. R. w. Pierce, of
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
OF Buffalo. n. V, saw the need of some
simple, effective, and certain cure for so
called female complaint" He was
then, as now, specialist in the diseases
OF women, and the result of his study and
experiments was the marvelously effec-
tive remedy known all over the civilized
world as DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. II cures where doctors have failed
II cures where medicines have been use
less. 1t cures in perfectly natural way
by purifying and strengthening the Or
gans involved. Its cure is permanent.
IT leaves the whole body in better con-
dltion than it ever was. It cures without
the local examinations and treatment so
abhorrent to every modest woman.
When the blood is impure any form Of sick ness

Secretary Francis Confirmed.

The nomination of Secretary Francis was
confirmed by the Senate in executive ses-
sion yesterday. No opposition to confirma-
ton was made and no vote was taken.
Senator Vest stated that he could add moth.
ing to what he had already said, and that
he had no object in further delaying action
upon the nomination. He added that he
had not made objection to confirmation in
the beginning on any personal ground or
because he entertained any but the kindest
personal feeling toward Mr.. Francis, but
that he lad taken his position in opposition
to confirmation simply as a matter of duty
to the democratic party, which Mr.. Francis,
while protesting to be member of that
party, had opposed in the late election

The Catholic Clubs Smoker.

The first public reception and smoker of
the new organization, the Catholic Club,
took place at the club house, 800 1st street,
last night, and was emnently successful
in every respect. The interior of the house,
which has been refitted for use as the
clubs headquarters, was handsomely dec
Grated with flowers and plants in profusion,
and during the evening it is estimated that
over 400 guests visited the club and en-
Joyed the things prepared for their enter
talnment. An enjoyable program of musi-
cal and literary numbers was given, in
which the Northeastern Quartet, Messrs
