KNOX IN A CRITICAL STATE

Another death as the result of the ter
rible explosion at duPonts' Powder
Works along the Brandywine on Friday
morning last, occurred late yesterday
afternoon at the Delaware Hospital.
The victim this time was Samuel Stew
art, aged 40 years, who resided at Du-
Points Banks.
Ever since the explosion grave hopes
have been entertained of his recovery, as
he was horribly burned in a number OF
places about the body. He fingered in
excruciating agony until 3.l5 o'clock
yesterday afternoon, when death re-
leased him from his suferings.
The case of Stewart is particularly sad
from the fact that he is survived by
wife and two children. He had been
with the duPonts since boyhood and one
year ago lost three OF children, who were
attacked with diphtheria.
The body was removed to his home
short time after death.
The condition of John Knox, of
Walkers Banks, it was stated last night,
had changed for the worse and he is now
in critical condition.

Sometimes the most careful women
are the most careless. Many women
bundles herself up, to keep out sick
ness when she is neglecting the very
worst sickness that can come to a
woman. She allows a slight disorder
to become worse, to slowly sap her
vitality The little pain and the
other slight indications of trouble
seem to her unimportant. She goes
on, with increasing suffering, until
life itself becomes a drag. Nervous
ness, sinking spells,N digestive dis
turbances, and fifty other complica-
tions may arise from the arrangement
of the organs distinctly feminine.
Over thirty years ago, the need for a
reliable remedy for so called female
complaints" was recognized by Dr.
K. V. Pierce, then, as now, chief con
sulting physician to the Worlds Dis

IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA

New York, Aug. 18.-The magnet OF his
own popularity in this country is draw
ing Henryk Sienkiewiez 10 revisit America
which years ago, in letters TO St. Peters
burg. ne described as a most disagree
able land.
The author Of Quo Vadis" and OF
with Fire and Sword has written to
his old friend, DR.. Marion de Zaremba,
in this city. saying that If his plans go
well he will carry out his long cherished
project"of coming to the lever glorious
and most glorious United States"
He proposes TO come here in the lat
ter part of next month, bringing with
MIN his inseparable companion, JadWiga'
his daughter. a pretty maiden of sixteen.
The two at this time are spending the
summer in villages of Zakopane, in the
Tatra Mountains of Galicia, resort
where gathers every year the cream of
Polish literary artistic and Bohemian"
life. There, surrounded by his friends,
the author plays much and works hard
on his next book.
jeremiah Curtin, the translator, who
mas Deen the means Oh making II4iS HillOA
known to Americans, will probably enter
tain him while he is in this city. There
are few of his countrymen in New York
whom Sienkewicz knows. Some OF the
Polish clergy few friends like DR.. de
Zaremba, are all the congenial spirits
" nom the Polish colony can furnish.
DR.. de Zaremba. in his life in Poland,
in Paris and elsewhere in Europe, has be-
come the friend of all the celebrities OF
his native land and many others in the
European lotteries of arts and letters.
They will love Slenkiewicz," said the
doctor. He is good man as well as
great man His personality is charming.
The letters which he wrote from Cali
fornia, in 1877. were without irony or i'll
nature in spite of the Interpretation
placed upon them. They were photograph
ic sketches of manners and people as he
saw them. He will find many more
agreeable impressions on this visit
The letters referred to were published
after Sienkewicz's return from a dis
asterous attempt to realize a social dream
er's paradise in Southern California
There were several Polish writers and
artists of genius in this colony, including
Helene Modjeska and her husband, Count
Bozenta Chlaponski.
