THROUGH HIS BRAIN
Andrew Richardson, of Briggs, Fires n
32-Calibre Bullet.

3H-CaltDre Bullet.
Andrew Richardson, young man
employed by William Fullerton, of
Briggs, few miles below this city on
the b. & o. S. W., was found dead in a
field one mile north of Briggs, Sunday
morning, with bullet hole in his
head and 32-calibre revolver in his
hand. He is supposed to have been
dead for several days.
The body was discovered by Mr..
Archie Cole, who had gone out with a
pick to locate a stone quarry on his
farm. Mr.. Cole was naturally very
much startled, but soon discovered
tkat the unfortunate man was dead.
He immediately reported the matter
at Briggs station and a gentleman
named Prewett came up to Marietta
after Coroner Willis. who went down
to the scene Immediately. All the
circumstances point to deliberate sui
eide and after thorough investigation
the Coroner states there is no doubt
that Richardson took his own life.
No papers were found on the body
and the cause cannot be conjectured.
Richardson was single man about 25
years of age and had been resident of
the Briggs neighborhood for a long
time. His father lives at Rockland
and his sister is an employe at the Child
ren's Home. He left Fullerton's three
or four days ago and was not seen
afterward until his body was found as
above related. He is said to have been
rather dull in intellect, but had no
known troubles sufficient to cause the
deed.
The body was brought up on the
evening train Sunday and prepared for
burial by Undertaken Fuller. The
young man had evidently been dead
one or more days. The remains will
be shipped today to Gravel Bank for
burial.

If the good Mork Valentine, who
was beheaded by Claudius because OF
his popularity with lovers, can look
down on the world today and see the
millions of tender missives with which
his birthday anniversary is honored
he can but smile with qualification
that his memory is still green eighteen
centuries after his execution. If he

sorry he was ever born.

AT The THEATRES.

"Cuba's Vow" an up-to-date military
drama, depicting life in Cuba during the
instruction, is Manager Wilton's draw
ing card for Lothrop's patrons this
week. As the insurrectionists are all
painted as brave, chivalrous, noble
heroes and the Spaniards as blackguard-
~, cowardIy ours, the piece is likely to
prove popular with the lingo sentiment
of the gallery. The play has been warm
ly received throughout the country, and
the heroine, Tessie beagle, has been the
recipient of many floral tributes and
other marks of appreciation from SYM
pathizers of the cause she champions.
1t is only necessary to say that the
biograph is to remain another week at
the Bijou to insure continuation of
the heavy patronage with which that
cozy resort has lately been favored.
With the biograph is a series of COM
petent entertainers, including Walter
Leon, the wonderful child mimic, Prof
Struck, the magician, and half-dozen
others equally good at making time pass
pleasantly.

AQUlNALD0 REFUSES
TO Release Imprisoned Friars and Civilian.
and Gives His Reasons.

Manila. Nov. 16-Gen. Otis, the COM
nlander of the American forces, recently
proposed TO Aguinaldo that he release the
fr!ars and civilians held in captivity
throughout the provinces. The insurgent
leader denied this maltreatment and re-
used to release the prisoners, claiming
that the civilians had enlisted as volun-
teers and therefore were legitimate pris-
3ners of war. Aguinaldo also denied that
women and children We're detained, but
said some women and children had vol
unfairly accompanied their husbands or
fathers into captivity.
AS to the friars. Aguinaldo argued that
they were prohibited by the Pope from
accepting parochial appointments, that
they were only permitted to follow a
monastic life and that the parishes were
entrusted to ministers of the Independent
monastic orders. But the Philippine cler-
icals had deliberately and Systematically
deceived the Pope, pretending that the
country was barbarous, unfit for the reg
ular ministry and that il was necessary
hat monastic orders should administer
the parishes. Therefore Aguinaldo con-
siGered it necessary to detain the friars
until the Pope should be undeceived.
The Spanish papers here assert that a
sanguinary mutiny has taken place Oh
board the steamer San Bernardino, ant
that the native crew massacred then
Spanish officers. These papers also ar-
peal TO the United States to control this
natives.
Advces from uoilo say the natives
that vicinity distrust Aguinaldo and wan
American domination.

The Information Supplied BY This Barber
Will Prove Of lnestimable Value to Augusta
Readers.

When the striped pole or sign which
now indicates barber shop was en-
ployed to let the public know where
cupping or blood-letting was profess
sionally performed, close shaves were
of daily occurrence, not the easy re-
moval of the hirsute or hairy adorn-
merit of the head and face, but close
shaves from entering eternity. More
than one unfortunate entered the bar
Der surgeons door to leave it corpse
or so weak that weeks were required
to get the victim of malpractice on his
feet. Blood-letting was used for every
thing from a heartache to a corn, and
pain in the loins was invariably treated
with two missions, one on each side of
the spine. Like plasters and liniments,
these helped from counter irritation
they created, and we may presume that
had Mr.. VIM. A. Jack. proprietor of the
leading shaving parlor of Bath. Me-, at
So Center ST, lived in the time of Geo.
III. of England, in place OF taking the
course he did with his back a short
time ago, blood letting would have been
resorted to. Read how he treated his
trouble. Mr.. Jack says: Il have suf-
fered for about two years with a pam
across the small of my back. l felt it
more after a long days work over the
