Human Blood
Turned to Water .
Remarkable Affection of Miss RoseIle
Darr, of Cumberland, Md.
From the Courier. Cumberland, NJ


From the Courier. Cumberland, Nd.
The reporter of The Courier hearing
ola terrible malady with which a young
and handsome lady of Cumberland Md,
was afflicted, called at the residence of Mr..
Michael Darr, So Frederick street, to
learn something of it.
Mrs. Darr said that her daughter Rose1le,
aged 20 years, had been afflicted with a
disease that apparently had turned her
blood to water, accompanied by nervous
prostration, pains, loss of appetite, ETC.,
making life burden.
The family physician was consulted,
but his treatment brought no relief, and
her daughters existence was dragging
misery.
The mother also said that her daughter
accidentally cut her finger rather severely,
no blood came from the wound. Then,
said the mother, 81 was convinced that
my daughters blood had really turned to
water -
Mrs. Darr, continuing, said she had
read of the merits of DR.. Williams Pink
in such remedies, but finally purchased a
box at Mr.. Hervey Laney's drug store,
on North Centre street.
After her daughter, Roselle, had taken
one box slight improvement was noticed
in her condition; the remedy was con-
tinued, and after three and half boxes
were taken her daughters health was re
stored.
The reporter naturally had a desire to
see the young lady after hearing these
remarkable statements, but was informed
that she was out Of the city on visit.
Mr.. Michael Darr, the father of the
young lady is passenger engineer on
the B. and O. railroad, and is an expert
enced and popular railroad man.

returned and opened the door, Cham

Upon seeing Moore he seemed to stand

LADIES DAY AT THE. FAIR.
Yesterday Was the Most Successful Day
of the Meeting.

AT the lowest estimate, over 20O0 peo-
were at the fair grounds Yesterday. 1t
was ladies' day, and the weather was,
If such is possible, as faE/as the sex in
whose honor the day twas set aside.
Long before the horses/were brought out
for the first race, the grandstand was
filled and hundreds Of people were forced
to make the best of standing at whatever
place good view could be obtained.
The first race was a free-for-ail pace,
for purse of 5000. The entries being
Island Lass, Pathmount and Deceiver.
Before the race, Pathmount, who holds
a record of :09, was the favorite, but be-
fore the first heat was half over everyone
saw plainly that he was not in a condi-
ton to win the race, and when they
came under the wire Island Lass was in
the lead, with Deceiver second, while
Pathmount came in considerably in the
rear. The time made was 2 2:25, which
lowered the record of last Wednesday
one-half second, and the previous record
three seconds. Deceiver won the next
heat by his own length ahead of Island
Lass, with Pathmount in the rear again.
The following two heats were a repeti-
ton of the second, which gave Deceiver
first money, and Island Lass second, the
average time being about 2 "a.
The second race was the gentlemen's
roadster, for purse of $50. The entries
were Kisbar, Hero, Dick Trumbill and
Barney. Kisbar took the lead in the
first heat and easily won it, with Hero
second and Barney third. Time 2 :59.
The second heat was won by Hero, who
got under the wire trifie ahead of Kis-
bar, However, Klsbar made up his loss
in the third heat, Barney coming in Sec
ond, with Hero third, which entitled
Kisbar to first money and the race.
The next was the running race, and
great deal more interest was taken in
this than'in the two previous races. The
entries were Gus D, Mamie D, Sally
Goodwin, New Moon and Black Alder.
The latter took the lead from the start
and came under the wire ahead, with
Sally Goodwin second, and Gus l.. third,
having made the five-eights in :06.
The last was three-eights mile dash,
for 500 purse, between Jim Corbett,
Harry n and Jim Grow. The start was
even, but Jim Crow lead out at the quar-
ter pole and beat the other two horses in
the first heat by several lengths. Jim
Corbett came in second. The second
heat decided the race, but was much
closer than the first.
This ended the races for Friday, which
was in every regard the most successful
day at the fair.
In the evening almost thousand peo-
pie crowded the Pavilion to view the
exhibits and lista IN to the select program,
which was rend ered by the orchestra
and Shields company. The interest
shown by each and every one was sufici-
ent proof of the excellency of the enter
tainment from beginning to end.

Bad Wreck Near seufert's.

Last night the west-bound freight
struck a COW near the company's mess
house about five miles above here and
was derailed. The engine left the track
near Seufert No. B wheel and turned
over and three cars followed 1T. The
train was in charge of Conductor Adams,
W. S. Woodworth being engineer with

Lyons was also in the cab when the
accident occurred, but all three men
escaped with but slight injuries by
jumping. When the engineer Jumped,
a fiat car which had left theNtrack came
near running over him. He fortunately
got out of its, road in time to avoid
serious injuries and probably death. A
report is current that tramp that was
stealing a ride was scalded, but par
ticulars could not be found out concern
ing him. One of the derailed cars
struck against Seufert's platform, which
they used for loading fish, and tore it

covered smoke issuing from the box
and found that the woodwork was on
fire. Instantly the boy realized the
danger, and thinking of the miners be-
low,he rushed to his engine and gave
the alarm, after which he stood at his
post until the 5000 men had reached
the surface of the earth. Then he fed.
Scarcely were men and boy in a place

seconds after John left his engine-be.

Shall vanish like the mists away;

Shall pass like long forgotten years;
For evening time will bring the light.
The mysteries we deemed not right,
Because they crossed our selfish VIII,
And bade our restless souls be still,
Shall be dissolved In evening light.
The hour Of deep temptations might,
The anguishing moments when our life
Seemed failing in the fearful strife,
Shall glorious seem In evening light.
The childhood faith that once was bright.
TIL mists of doubts had overcast,
In pristine beauty shall at last
Shine forth again in evening light.
We wait thy coming. solemn night,
When all our weary cares laid down,
We enter on the glorious crown.
In rapturous Joy of evening light.
Oh, foregleams Of that coming light,
Oh, morn, beyond the western bars,
Shine out, shine out, above the stars,
And bring the day that has no night.
