ed. During a religious revival the 10
year-old daughter became mentally de-
ranged and 1t was necessary to place
her In the asylum at Warren. The
father, James Caylor, and son Alfred,
aged 21, were active workers in the
protracted meeting and last week the
mental faculties of both father and
son gave way, leaving them in a de-
plorable condition of insanity. Con-
stable Brilliant went up from here and
took the unfortunate men to Brookville
and placed them in Jail. Judge Reed
examined the cases and filed an order
of lunacy. Owing to the crowded con-
dition of the Warren asylum it is neces-
sary to place them in the Dixmont
asylum.

VERDICT AGAINST POSTMASTER.
Tho Victim of n Buuco Game Must
Paw TN.

Trenton, n. j., March ga jury In
the United States circuit court today
rendered a verdict of about $1,000
against eX-Postmaster John d. Schor,
of Nordhoff, Bergen county, and Cor
nelius Christie, James Christie and
Isaac r. Vreeiand, his bondsman.
While Schor was postmaster of Nord-
hoff he was made the victim of bunco
game. Some persons representing HIM
self as a postoffice inspector examined
the office and discontinued it as
money order office and got Schor to
surrender the money order blanks. The
pretending inspector had an accomplice
and between them they used these
blanks ard had them cashed in differ
ent parts Of the country to the extent
of $1,000. Schor was held responsible
for this money because ha did not re-
quire the pretending inspector to show
his credentials.
The verdict is for the full amount of
the forged money orders, with interests
and costs.

MARTIN PRESENTS
HIS RESIGNATION
Proposes TO Leave His Honorary Office
with Flying CoIors.
REFUSED TO RETIRE UNDER FIRE
Has Lost Faith IN Philadelphia
Politics, However, and Fears
Oissster-.His Action Creates n
Sensation In Political Circles in the
Quaker City.

Philadelphia, March 29.-Sccretary of
the Commonwealth David Martin, for
a number of years the member of the
Republican city committee from the
Nineteenth ward, today presented his
resignation as a member of that body,
giving as his reason the pressure OF
personal business which prevents for
the present his active participation in
party management. Mr.. Martin has
for several years been one of the lead
ers of the anti-Quay movement in this
state and latterly he has been regard
ed as favoring the candidacy OF John
Wanamaker for the governorship as
against the candidate supported by
Senator Quay. His action of today has
therefore created a sensation in Re-
publican political circles. Mr.. Martin
thus explains his position;
II am convinced that the Republi-
can party is about due for licking
next fall owing to the combined issues
that have been apparent for some time
past. AS the recognized leader of the
party l have been assailed and Wilt
fled to such an extent that would
drive any other man away from the
party, but l refused to retire under
fire and held on and accomplished
everything that l had set as a task
for myself. With defeat staring the
party in the face heroic politics must
be rcsorted to in order to save it and
should victory not be accomplished it
will be blamed on me, and this
coupled with my official duties as Sec
retary of the commonwealth and 9TH
er private business, leads me to re-
tire from the party leadership, at
least so far as my seat in the city
committee is concerned"

BRITISH AIMS IN CHINA.
She Will Join Other Powers to OBJ
tain Equal Advantages.

London, March ga statement has
been obtained in a competent quarter
respecting British intentions in China,
in view of the naval movements in the
far east. 1t is admitted that the Brit
ish policy of main tanning the integrity
of China and the equal commercial
status of all nations has been aban-
doned, owing to the concessions made
to Russia and Germany. 1t also added:
"The only course left Great Britain
is to follow suit, obtain equal advant-
ages with the other powers and secure
adequate compensation in her own in
terests. This explains the British naval
activity at Hong Kong and elsewhere.
Therefore a movement upon the part
of Great Britain may be anticipated in
the near future. 1t is deemed improb-
able that Japan singlehanded, or still
less in conjunction with China, will
combat the policy of the European
powers. She will probably rest content
with a compromise satisfactory to her
pride and securing the position due her
hs the fruit of her victories over
China"

ored to persuade them not to do so,

turbance. Agent Bean, of the corpor-
alton, who appeared in the midst of
the trouble, was hit with a stone. but
he was not injured and several of the
squad of police officers who were pre-
sent were struck with stones and pieces
of wood, but no one was hurt serious
ly After the machinery had been
started the strikers dispersed.
About 200 of the 800 operatives went

about fifty more began work this morn

he can use in view of the small amount
of machinery that can be operated in
the weaving department.

and Arnold handed down an opinion in
the license court today granting the ap-
plications of the Consumers Brewing
company for six brewers and one whole

After exercise a cool shower spray or

than one or two minutes and should be
followed by a brisk rub to tone up the
system and encourage the circulation OF
the blood. Some pure stimulant should
also be used. Duffys Pure Malt Whiskey
is used by prominent athletes for this
purpose and is highly recommended.
1t should be noted, however, that only
pure and medicinal malt like Duffy s
will be of service. Ordinary whiskey will
not answer the purpose and you should
be certain to secure the genuine.

SUGAR MEN AT WAR.
Cutting Price In Chicago May Afec,
the Whole rrnde.

Chicago. March 29.-Chicago whole
sale grocers are selling sugar in Cook
county at precisely the same price that
the. sugar trust is selling it at in New

freight from the refinery here. This
unusual state of affairs is the result of
a war among the local wholesalers.
The reduction has not yet been made
by Minneapolis. st. Paul, Detroit, To-
ledo or any other surrounding iobbing
points, but it is so sweeping that it is
likely to affect their trade and must
sooner or later be extended to the
whole country.
