A BULLETINH HIS HEART.
For Thlrty.Seven Years Most ExtraOr'
binary Canon Record.

Morgantown, W. Va, Nov. 49,
William B. Smallridge, who died a
few days ago at Chenille, in Gil
mer county, carried bullet in his
heart for thirty-seven years. He
was a member of Company E First
West Virginia Infantry, in the civil
war, and in September, 1851, while
marching through Gilmer county,
he was shot by some one III am
bush, the bullet entering Small
ridges chest at the lower part Of
the scapula on the left side, pass
ing thence directly through the
left ventricle of the heart.
The force of the bullet was so
broken that it did not penetrate the
inner wall, but the regimental sur
geon pronounced the wound fatal
and left Smallridge to die. He did
not die, however, but was sent
back up the Little Kanawha river
in a skif to his home in Chenille,
where he recovered, and has since
lived.
A few weeks ago, while on his
death bed, he asked DR.. G. 0.
Brown to make an examination of
the wound after his death. This
DR.. Brown did, and found the bull
let imbedded in the heart. Sur
geons pronounce it the most ex-
traordinary case on record,

HE WAS INSANE.


while ON Duty
Charles E. Morris, a fireman on
the B. & O. r. R., running on a
freight between Grafton and Ben
wood Junction, is violently insane
and was taken in custody Saturday
by the Benwood authorities.
Morris lines at Grafton, where he
was employed as coal HEAVIER until
promoted to fireman couple OF
weeks ago. Morris was possessed
of a strong ambition to be engineer
and seems to have gone crazy on
this subject. Friday night his
train came into Benwood Junction.
Soon after starting out on the trip
Morris gave evidence of being in
sane. He talked necessarily of
putting the engine to its full speed
and engineer Gatewood with diff
Guilty restrained him from continu-
ally firing the engine. After ar
irving at the junction Morris got
worse. The Benwood police were
telephoned for and assisted by De-
tective Shorts, officer Fisher took
Morris to The Benwood lookup.
After being put in cell Norris
got violent and made desperate eff
forts to get out. His relatives ar
rived yesterday from Grafton TO
take him home, but his condition
would not warrant his release.
He will be taken to Moundsville
where he will be given mental
examination. Morris is young
man, is married and has several
children.

AGAIN IN EVIDENCE.
A Couple OF Crooks Seek 10 DesPOil a
Law Office.

Last evening shortly after eight
O'Clock, Mr.. George Shriver, stem
ographer for F. L. Blackmarr, Esq,
was going to his home on Diamond
street, when he espied person
trying to raise one OF the front
windows of Mccoy & Haines' law
office. Another fellow, evidently
an accomplice, was on the lookout
some distance from the office. The
streets were nearly deserted at the
time, and this accounts for the very
early operation OF these two malev-
client individuals.
Shriver's approach was noticed
by the mar on watch, and the lat
ter communicated the intelligence
to his pal, whereupon both took to
their heels. The duo had selected
a time when the police were on
other portions of their beats, but
had not counted on the appearance
of the gentleman who spoiled their
game.
What object the two could have
had in attempting entrance to this
Office, it is difficult to conjecture,
unless they had decided to abandon
a criminal career for the legal pro-
tession and desired to economic on
the requisite law library. Mr..
Haines was in St. Marys at the
time.

St. Marys, w. Va. Nov. 23.-
Yesterday while men were at work
razing a rig on the Taylor farm,
near this city, for Franchott Bros,
they allowed the bull-wheel to get
away. 1t rushed down the steep
hillside at a terrific rate, crashing
into the house of Francis Colmar,
knocking the house from its foun-
dation and tearing away one whole
end of the building.
Mrs. Colmar and children were
eating breakfast at the time, and
all were badly injured.

A Terrible Case Of Eczema.

San Cura Ointment has no equal
for erysipelas. One year ago my
face and neck were one mass of
raw sores: the doctor said I had
eczema also. I had not slept for
weeks, with itching, burning pain.
It was terrible. The first night I
used San-Cura ointment slept all
night for the first time in weeks.
and in a short time was completely
cured.

Electric Line on Michigan Road.

An electric railway is to be construct
ed on the Michigan road between
Rochester and Burlington, a town
twenty-five miles south of LOgansport
The Carroll county commissioners
granted the franchise Wednesday,
making the last franchise that is neces-
sary to secure. The road Will be about
sixty miles in length and will be great
benefit to Logansport merchants, who
will in consequence draw trade from
the country which has heretofore fed
Kokomo, Delphi, Flora and other cities
1t is likely that kokOmo business men
will build a line from that city to Bur
lington to offset her loss of trade to

The republicans of Plymouth GER
tainly have reason to feel blue.
Notwithstanding the fact that
Frank Hanley, candidate for the
United States senate was billed for
three consecutive weeks, he only
had an audience of thirty of the
faithful when he spoke last night.
1t is very evident that the people
have at last realized that they were
buncoed when they were told that
the factories would belch forth
smoke as soon as the "advance
agent" got into the harness. They
are still waiting for that belch.

Hernley's Statement Repudiated.

Chairman Hernley, of the Republican
State Central committee, has aroused
much criticism in his own party bv a
statement that no matter what the out.
come of the Appellate court case now
pending in the Supreme court, the re-
publicans would not nominate candi-
dates for judges of the Appellate
court. The impression was conveyed
IN his talk that the state ballots
would be printed before the decision
could be reached, besides which the
party would look to the legislature
to solve the difficulty, it being the
belief of the committee that the re-
publicans would control the next
General Assembly. Chairman Hern-
ley's statement has been repudlated by
Commissioner Claypool, the republican
member of the State Election Board, as
well as by Governor Mount

Jake Blyler was convicted Tuesday
in the Laporte circuit court of robbery
and given an indeterminate sentence of

have terrorized Laporte county and

SHE THREW HIM OVER.

Willard Rinehart, of waikerton, tries
Suicide.
Willard Rinehsrt, who has been
studying law in the office of Attorney
o. NJ. Cunningham at South Bend
made an attempt at suicide Thursday
night at the New Sheridan hotel by
taking dose of morphine. Despon-
dency over having been discarded by a
young lady of Laporte is supposed to
be the reason for the attempt to end
his life.
He went to the hotel Thursday even
ing, engaged room, saying that he
was sick, and left instructions not to
be called. Friday morning the wife of
the landlord while passing through the
hall heard some one grooming in the
room. An employee, who was hastily
summoned, looked over the transom
and saw Rhinehart lying on the bed.
The door was broken open and he was
found to be just alive. A physician
was called and resorted to the usual
treatment in such cases. He had taken
the morphine out of his trunk and had
taken the drug from glass which was
on the stand. A revolver lay on the
chair but it had not been used. The
dose of morphine was large one and
Friday evening he had not yet recover
ed consciousness.
He is the son of b. f. Rhinehart,
residing near Wslkerton, and went to
South Bend about a year ago. His
father educated him for a musician
and for time Rhinehart was engaged
in the bushes of selling musical instru.
ments. For time he worked as night
clerk at hotel and studied law during
the day, as he was inclined in the latter
direction. He was rather morbid in
disposition and brooded over hi
troubles to great extent, one of which
being his inability to take law course
in some college.
The attachment between Rhinehsrt
and the Laporte young lady sprang up
some time ago and on numerous occa-
siOps he visited at her home. She is one
of Laporte's best known young society
ladies and for the past eight months
has been serving as society reporter on
one of Laporte's daily papers. During
the summer she spent about week at
Lakeside with a crowd of Laporte
friends and during about two days of
that time Mr.. Rhinehart was the young
lady's guest at the camp. Since then
he called on her several times in La
porte and it was whispered in the inner
circles that the announcement of an
engagement might be looked for at any
time. However, it is alleged that
Laporte attorney superseded the South
Bend follower of Blackstone in the
affections of the young lady, and on
Thursday Rhinehart received letter,
presumably from the Laporte young
lady, and after reading it he went to a
trunk and making up package sent it
away by express. The next heard of
him he was sick at the hotel. 1t is
stated that this is his second attempt
to commit suicide. He will probably
recover

THOSE who said that Porto Ricans would have rebelled long ago if their island had been as well adapted as Cuba to guerrilla warfare will feel that the reception given the American troops is a fact in point. The people receive the invaders with joy, and mayors and alc4ldes, in heading up their public papers, put down ''U. S." after Porto Rico" as if the latter had already been annexed. Evidently the rule of Spain is u burden hard to bear. which the islanders have been waiting a fair chance to shake of.

SEINE Requirements Thaf wm BE
Pound Indispensable.

Some Requirements HhHA VIII BE
Found Indispensable.
The universal article Of diet IN that
country, depended upon and indispensa-
bic, IS bread or biscuit And tomakstbs
bread and biscuit, either in the camp or
upon the trail, yeast cannot be nsed-it
must be baking powder. and the pow
der manufactured BY the processes OF
the Royal Baking Powder Company,
miners and prospectors have learned,
is the only one which win stand in that
peculiar climate Of cold aud dampness
and raise the bread and biscuit satisfac-
torily.
These facts are very important for
every one proposing to 20 10 Alask and
the Yukon country to know, for should
he be persuaded by some outftter to
take one Of The cheap brands Of baking
powder, 1t will cost just as much to
transport it, aud then when he opensit
for use, after all his labor in packing IL
over the long and difficult route, he will
find a solid eaked mass or a lot ofspoiied
powder, with no strength and useless.
Such a mistake might lead to the most
serious results. Alaska Is no place in
which to experiment In food, or try to
economic with your stomach. For use
In such a climate, and under the trying
and fatiguing conditions Of life and
labor in that country, everything must
be the best and most useful, and above
all It is imperative that oil food supplies
shall have perfect keeping qualities, It
Is absurd to convey over such difficult
and expensive routes an article that
will deteriorate In transit, or that will
be found when required for use to have
lost a great part OF its value.
There is no better guide to follow
in these matters than the adviceo Of those
who have gone through similar expert
ence. Mr.. McQuesten, who iscalIed the
father Of Alaska after an experience
OF years upon the trail, in the camp, and
in the use Of every kind Of supply, says:
1--WE find In Alaska that the Importance
Of a proper kind Of baking powder can
not be overestimated. A miner with q
can Of bad baking powder is almost
helpless in Alaska. We have tried all
sorts, and have been obliged to settle
down TO use nothing but Royal. IT
Is stronger, and carries further, but,
above all things, it is the only powder
that will endure the severe climatic
changes of the Arctic region"
1t is for the same reasons that the u.
S. Government in its relief expeditions,
and peary, the famous Arctic traveller,
have carried the Royal Baking Powder
exclusively,
The Royal Baking Powder viii not
cake nor lose its strength either on
board ship or in damp climates, and Is
the most nightly concentrated and eff
hcient Of leavening agents. Hence it Is
indispensable to every Alaskan outfit.
It can be had Of any of the trading com
pauies in Alaska, but should the miner
procure his supplies before leaving, he
should resist every attempt Of the out
filter to palm off upon him any Of the
other brands of baking powder, forthey
will spoil and prove the cause Of great
disappointment and trouble.
