Huntington, Pa, Feb. 24.-By dirdc-
ton of District Attorney Dunn CORONER
Schumm yesterday began an investt-
cation into the alleged wholesale pois|
oning of the family of Joseph Demcb,
a naturalized Hungarian farmer jof
Cromwell township. Mrs. Demco and
the youngest child died suddenly f1om
what D.. j. C. Stever, the attending
physician, declared to be COMMISSIONS
caused by an i~rritant poison. DGmco
and the two remaining children,) suf-
fering with the same SYMPHONIC, are
barely alive. Their bodies are ema-
ciated to almost skeletons, and cPvered
with eruptions. Demco n John Will
Der, also a n~aturalized Hungarian, pur-
chased a farm in common, and lived in
a double house with their families. Dis
senslons arose over Wilber'sj effort to
dispose of an interest in the farm to
a fellow countryman. WILDER, who is
under surveillance, acknowledges hav-
ing bought arsenic recently, but says
1t was to kill barn rats. The bodies of
Mrs. Demco and the child will be ex-
humed.

The bladder was created for one purpose,
namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as
such it is not liable to any form of disease
except by one or two ways. The first way is
from imperfect action of the kidneys. The
second way is from careless local reatme OF

She is feminine to the very core, though
her understanding is that of a man. Even
her early piety, with its zeal that bordered
on the sanctimonious, is very womanly.
And, though her Christianity passed
away, her piety remained to the very end.
1t preserved her conscience alive, and it
filled her with an ambition to leave the
world something better for her having
lived-a necessary inspiration, surely, for
good work of any kind! She was more
womanly still in her receptiveness and
clinging dependence,
All through life George Eliot needed a
mans arm to lear on. She leaned on that
of her father-Adam Bede in his strength,
Caleb Garth in his self distrust; on her
brothers, the Tom Tulliver to her Mag

Jacksonville, Fla, Feb. 22.-Last season it
was not au uncommon occurrence for the
trains from the North to reach here from one
to five hours late. The remarkable regu-
larity of the arrival on time of the Southern
Railway trains this season is a matter of
ommen and favorable criticism around the
hotels and by all incoming tourists. The
schedule of the Florida Limited, the fast
train over the Southern Railway and the
Florida Central and Peninsular, is several
hours shorter than that of last year, but the
track has been put in excellent condition and
the engineers of incoming trains say the new
schedule is made with ease. 1w
