AN UNPoETIC ENocH ARDEN.
Episode fin ST. Louis Lacking the
Usual Feature of Sentiment.

st. Louis Mo. April S.-An Enoch Ar
den case has been unearthed In East St.
Louis. 1t seems that several years ago
Fritz Krauss and Miss Kimmeli were
married at Beileville. The couple lived
Krauss took TO drink, and before their
first married year had rolled over Krauss
deserted his wife.
The wife hired out. says the Globe
Democrat, and supported herself the
best she could until news came that her
husband had been killed i'm a wreck.
Later advices confirmed the report, and
a year later she was married to George
CASTOR. a butcher i'm St. Louis.
Mr.. and Mrs CASTOR have been living
in East 81 Louis for ti1e past year. Mr.
CASTOR works at the Swift & Co.
Dressed Beef Works. On Monday even
ing while passing Chances saloon on
Whiskey Chute. which is about a block
from his home, he was hailed by the
barkeeper The couple were old friends.
and CASTOR walked into the saloon 10
see what was wanted. As soon as he
entered. Mr.. Glance, who was behind
the bar. said that CASTOR was called
over for the purpose of being introduced
TO his wifes husband.
NaSloD. III nrSt considered the al1alr
joke, but was again informed that the
stranger who leaned against the counter
was the lawful, long-lost husband of Mel
lie krauss. -
CASTOR at once informed those present
that he placed no creience i'm the stran-
gers story, and hot words soon passed.
Some one attempted to strike him, and
he carried his butcher knife. with
which he had been working all day. in
his hand Glance drew a revolver and or
dered him out. Later he was arrested on
a peace warrant, but gave bail for exami-
nation.
Mrs. CASTOR was seen about the affair
and admitted that krauss' statement
about the marriage was true. She said
that she married him at Belleville. in
1890, and that he had deserted her soon
after. She learned that he had been
killed while stealing a ride on a Chicago
and Alton freight train at Springfield.
III. and received a letter later purporting
to have been written by Krauss's brother,
to the effect that the report of his death
was true. She met Mr.. CASTOR about
two years ago, and, believing that her
husband was dead. married CASTOR in St.
Louis, and proposed TO stand by him. She
says krauss is worthless drunkard.
and that during the short while he lived
with her he beat and kicked her almost
daily. She also feels that CASTOR was
inVeigled into Chances saloon SO that
krauss could have a chance TO beat him,
and then invoke the aid of the law to
give CASTOR as much trouble as possible
CASTOR will cling to the woman. Luckily
there are no children to add further COM
plicatiOns to the affair.

lief for the crews Of eight whalers. He
states that $50 officers and sailors are
camped on the ice. and an will be lost
unless aid reaches them very speedily.
The tramp Tilton made is considered as
one Of the most wonderful achievements
on record and he is looked upon as a
hero.
Tilton's reasons for undertaking a jour
ney that has ne counterpart in the his
tory of the frozen North are fully ex-
planned by his statement, and il reveals
the greatest disaster that has ever oc-
CURED among the whalers of the Arctic

others were in such a predicament that
there was no possibility of them escap-

1.-THE Cookies of the Heart"
(From the Rochester Post Express

(From the Rochester Post-Express)
1.-THE cookies of his heart" is one of
those fine old phrases which still sur
vive in Boston. Thus. we are informed
by the Boston Herald, that the welcome
which the Hub lately gave Theodore
Thomas must have warmed the cookies
of his heart" The phrase was banished
from the newspaper offices of the Mid
die States-save possibly in Delaware
by unanimous consent several years ago.
A current writer in New York, New Jer-
sey or Pennsylvania, who ventured to
write 1.-The cookies of his heart" would
be greeted with cold-blooded levity, and
asked what are cookies, anyway" If
the heart of Theodore Thomas was
warmed then, of course, since the great
er includes the less the cookies of IL
must have been warmed. Why then not
write that the welcome which Boston
gave him must have warmed his heart
and let it go at that, without specifying
cookies?

The Only Thing

To Remove Bronchitis,
Catarrh, Consumption
and Pneumonia
From the List OF Dangerous Dis
eases Is the Education or
the People.

Ever since the discovery that catarrh,
bronchitis, pneumonia and consumption
were purely local diseases. caused by the
presence of bacilli in the air passages.
the medical profession throughout the
whole world hare bent all their energies
TO finding some, method or remedy by
which these bacilli could be reached and
destroyed. How they have succeeded is
best told by a glance at the reports pub
hshed by the different boards of health
In all the large cities In this country.
winch show not only a great increase In
the number of deaths yearly from these
diseases, but a startling growth i'm the
number of persons afflicted. This failure
to md cure for diseases of the respi-
ratory organs must not be construed 10
mean a lack OF ability on the part of
the medical profession. for they have dis
covered many remedies which would Kill
these germs. Yet, strange TO say, not ono
OF them could be conveyed to the parts
affected by dry air. 1t can be readily
seen. then, that the discovery of 'Hyo-
mel, germicide of sufficient power to
Kill at once the bacilli of these diseases,
and at the same time volatile enough to
impregnate every particle of air breathed
by the patient, yet leaving II free from
moisture. was one of vital importance to
the medical world. Doctors throughout
the whole country began TO test the eff
cacy of this new remedy and now, after
two years trial in hundreds of cases UNI
der their own care over $500 physicians
claim that "Hyomei,' the Australian Dry
Air Cure. is the only treatment by which
all the diseased parts Of the respiratory
organs can be reached and cured.
Furthermore, Ii Is claimed that in famf-
lies who are predisposed TO catarrh and
consumption, If the fathers and mothers
will but instruct their children in the use
of "Hyomei' the rising generation will
be freed from those dread diseases. IL
would seem, then, that nothing remains
to be done in order to remove these dis
eases from the list OF dangerous ones
