CHILD.

MUST ANSWER FOR THE MURDER
OF HIS TIOUSEKEEPER AND HER
CHILD.
West Chester, April 12.-Before Mag
istrate Rupert, in this place, yesterday,
Charles Harley, held on the charge Of
numbering his housekeeper, Isabel
Ridgway, and her little son, at his
home two weeks ago, was given hear
ing. The occasion drew a large crowd
of interested people, among whom were
many of the prisoners neighbors, who
generally believe him innocent of the
crime for which he is held The hear
ing consumed the greater part OF the
day, and when it was concluded the
magistrate committed the prisoner to
answer at the next Court of Quarter
Sessions.
Much of the evidence was tile same
as was given before the jury Of in
quest at Malvern, but there were
number of new points brought out and
some weak places in the old strength
ened to such an extent as to warrant
the committing of the prisoner for trial.
The testimony of the experts who
had made a thorough examination Oh
the cuts in the throats OF the victims
consumed much time ana Was lne eau
ing point of interest in the hearing.
The blood spots found on his oyeralls,
on the woman's handkerchief found
In his bureau drawer and carpet In MS
room, were also features against hlln'
and the angle of the cuts and the gen
eral character of the sans DR.. Shoe
maker testified, were not those OF a
self-inficted character, so far as he be-
lieved
Counsel for the prisoner applied for
habeas corpus, which will be argued
before the court on next Tuesday, when
his counsel expect to secure for him
release on bail. The prisoner bore up
we'll. and only when Professor Coch-
ran was testifying to the blood spots
on his clothing did he show any dispo-
sition to shrink from the stories which
were told against him.

The Dispatch also has staff Of over

Catnrrh Can BE Cured

BY eradicating from the blood the
scrofulous taints which cause it. Hoods
arsaparilla cures catarrh, promptly
and permanently, because it strikes at
the root of the trouble.
The righ, pure blood which it makes
circulating through the delicate pass
ages oflthe mucous membrane, soothes
and rebuilds the tissues, giving them a
tendency to health instead of disease,
and Ultimately curing the affection.
At the same time Hoods Sarsaparilla
strengthens, invigorates and energizes
the whole system and makes the debili-
tated victim Of catarrh feel that new life
has been impaired.
Do not daily with snuffs, inhalants or
other local applications, but take Hoods
Sarsaparilla and cure catarrh absolute
ly aud surely by removing the causes
which produce it.

PRINCE BISMARCK
After an engraving


! Copyright, 1898, by HARPER & BRoTHERs ~
on the occasion of Prince Bismarck's s
visit to Vienna to attend his son Her.
bert's wedding, a circular note to all
.he German ambassadors abroad say
ing that Prince Bismarck was private
gentleman, and was to be treated ac-
cordingly, and that his views were no
longer of any weight. With regard to
this decree, Prince Bismarck once said !:
"That Caprivi should assert that
understood nothing of politics, and that
he should have officially communicated
the statement to foreign countries, was
nothing to me. 1t could only disgrace
him. But that he should interfere with
my social rights was too much. 1 at
first wanted to challenge him, and had
already thought about my seconds. I
have still very firm hand, and would
soon have got into shooting again. But
considered the matter and asked my
self what would happen? am an of
icer. The matter will be brought be-
fore Court of Honor of old generals.
There will be deal OF talk, and finally
unmeaning declarations will be ex.
changed. What would have been the
use of this? So I gave it up"
1t is probable that Prince Bismarck
dropped his blood thirsty plan because
he knew that Count Won Caprivi was
only the executor of the Emperor's will
