COMMA BACILLUS.

In consumption beware of cough mix
lures and prescriptions that contain
opium. Opium paralizes the nerves,
and gives the comma bacillus a good
chance to destroy the lungs. 1t is
always fatal. Brazilian Balm does not
contain a trace of any opiate, but stimu-
lates the nerves with new life and power,
destroys the microbe, and restores all
that is left of the diseased lungs to a
sound and healthy state which no other
remedy has ever been known to accom-
plish.

Safely Without the Big
Wire Combination.

Clinton. March 13.-The good people
OF this town were a bit surprised this
morning when they read in q Worces-
ter newspaper that Clinton was in the
thick OF consolidation. and had Joined
hands with Worcester for a giant mo-
nopoly.
They were not half as surprised as
Charles Swinscoe was when he was in
formed in the same way that he is
president of the Clinton Wire Cloth
Company.
he IS manager Of this large concern,
and has his hands quite full of the
duties Of his own important position
without assuming those OF the president
also.
1t is quite true that Mr.. Swinscoe has
been elected president Of an associa-
tion Of the Wire Cloth Company of the
country. But this association is by no
means an addition to the trusts Of the
country, and it is not the gigantic com
btnatiOn indicated by the description.
"A Trust in Meshes."
The association has not even under
taken to fix prices, Mr.. Swinscoe says.
1t met in Buffalo, March IS and
agreed upon uniform list. This is a
far different thing from an agreement
upon prices.
Wire goods are sold, like many goods
Of other descriptions, from a list, but at
., 10, 20, so or any old percentum off
the list. The association has fixed the
list, but not the discounts

the sales department in the Clinton
factory, and the son of the treasurer

mitted itself to combination and
more especially, when he read in the
Worcester newspaper that the asso-
citation expected to number among It's

NO FOUL PLAY.
West Boylston Mystery All
Cleared Up.

Clinton, March Ian ancient he
morThage in the left lobe Of his brain
may be regarded as the primary cause
of the death Of Giovanni Belforte, who
was found face downward in the water
Of the little brook that flows on the
north side of the highway between this
town and Sawyer's Mills, dead.
The body was discovered by Miss
Mary Bacosin, at this morning, where
it lay in a foot Of water, head i'm
mersed but hips and shoulders almost
floating
The body was brought to the morgue
in the undertaking rooms of Lucius
Field & Co. Medical Examiner F. H.
Baker Of Worcester and Acting Medical
Examiner George L. Tobey of this town
performed an autopsy there this after
noon.
They found the verdict, Death by
accidental drowning" The autopsy
completely disposed Of certain i'll
founded rumors OF foul play.
There were no marks of external
violence anywhere on the body. The
| heart was sound, 80 were the other or
gans; but the lungs were badly con-
| gested, Bits of the weed-character-
istic growth of Still brook water-were
! found in the tubes of the lungs These
effort Of the lungs before their move
ment ceased It was learned from per
sons who knew the deceased. that ha
was the victim OF epilepsy and the fall
ing fts Of that dreadful nalady.
The brain gave silent confederation
Of this testimony. In the left lobe were
traces Of a blood Cot left from a hem
orrhage. The clot had been partially
absorbed but there remained enough
! to produce pressure and the falling
| sickness.
So all things considered, the exam
| lners are very certain that some time
! last night, perhaps early, possibly late
as Belforte was on his way home. he
had a fit and fell face downward into
the shallow water of the little brook
and died from asphyXiation by drown
| ing
| So close were life and death for him
that had he proceeded few feet far
Their on his journey before the fit seized
him, he would have escaped the EN-
! braces Of the water. Had he walked
| ever so little to the south, he might
| have fallen and found air instead of
muddy water to breath. Belforte was
a laborer employed on the metropoIi-
tan work, He was 30 years old. built
on a stalWart plan and feet inches
| tall. He had non been drinking. and
was not in the habit OF using the
stuff.
Properly speaking, the body should
have remained in Boylston, which con-
tains the village known as Sawyer's
mills, or have been brought to Wor-
cester 1t was found just over the Clin-
ton line and in the district of Medical
Examiner Baker.
When Medical Examiner Tobey dis
covered this fact, he telephoned TO DR..
Baker. DR.. Baker came Immediately
to Clinton.
Miss Bacosin, who discovered the
body in the brook, is an Italian girl.
She is employed in Sawyer's mills. She
called Albert Kingsley. an overseer In
the mills, who took some Of his men
and lifted the body from the brook to
the bank. IT lay on the bank until
wagon was procured and it could be
brought to this town. Little is known
OF Bciforte. There We're some papers
and not much else in his pockets.

MOUNT BALDWIN.
BY FRANCIS CUMMINGS.

Written for The Philipsburg Mail
Thou still subllmlty Of Gcd's great art
That silent looms against the eternal sky.
How vividly thou show'st the Masters heart
OF patient peacefulness that will not die.
Here from afar with wondering delight
gaze. and solemn gadness stirs my soul;
And with the gloom OF still increasing night
| feel the power of Him who does control.
How like king thou sit at with crested head:
Eternal whiteness wreaths thy rugged brow:
Or. like lofty monument to some great dead,
Before whose splendor we would tamely bow.
Great sentinel of day, and night, and time.
How lovablc thy huge and stately form
That makes the music of my soul to chime,
And all the coldness of my bosom warm.
In Gods great studio wherein we dwell
with freedom to behold his works most
granD,
Oftranquil mountains and rich blossomed dell,
Thou art the masterpiece of His great hand.

THE FUTURE OF PHOENIX
rir. H ". BerrYman Gives His View
 off to Washington Paper.

MT. H. w. Ber4'yman Of this city IS now in Washington. and the Post of that city a few days ago printed the following article concerning him;
 MT. H. w. Bergman, secretary of the Arizona Ostrich company of Phoenix. Ariz., is here. the guest of MT. Clifford K. Berryman. He has just arrived from a visit to Greater New York, and says in all his travels he has seen no place he likes as well as Phoenix, where the sun shines 3oO days in the year and the annual rain fall is less than an inch, vegetation being kept continuous by irrigation
 '' Phoenix is destined he said to be the greatest winter resort of America. and has been for years an ideal health resort for the invalid It is astonishing the increase of visitors that Phoenix has each winter For outdoor existence it has no equal, many of the citizens sleeping out dur ing the entire winter. The population of 12,OOO enjoys a winter increase of between four and five thousand, and being comparatively Q new place only very modern improvements exist. While Phoenix enjoys agricultural re sources, the greater part of Arizona is mining, which is enjoying substantial growth since the advance in demand and price of copper.
 MT. Berryman's company owns the largest ostrich farm in America and finds a ready market in the east Os- trich raising is very interesting, as well as profitable. It requires forty two days for an egg to hatch, and the young bird is very delicate in early life A bird is plucked every eight months from the time 1t Is matched. though it requires three yeaIs to reach maturity, when they will weigh between 400 and 300 pounds The male bird furnishes the most val uabIe plumes, which bring as hiSn as s25 per pound in their raw state Os- triches pair off and offer a moral eN- ample. inasmuch as they are never separated except by death They are very attentive when sitting, and It IS then that thev are most dangerous. The male bird sitsat night and relieves the female during the day for meals The average life of an ostrich IS lu' wears. and they live almost entirely on green alfalfa. from which three to five crops a year are cut.

HIS MAIZE WAS FOX
Until He Got Ready to Leave Glen
 dale in Disgust.

Dr. J. C. Johnson, late of Glendale, Ariz-, but at present of Cawker City, Kan, a book notice of whose most re- cent work, From 1920 to 19OO," lately appeared in the literary columns of this paper, is under discussion in both the literary and non-literary circles of Glendale It is agreed out there that Ihere IS a mystery in Dr. Johnson's lie When he arrived in that town live years ago he was known as Frank
 FOX, and said he had come from Flor ida where, in fact, he had been known by a couple of families then living near Glendale He bought real estate, erect ed brick business building and em- parked in merchandising When a va cancy occurred in the postoffice he tried to insert himself into it, and fail ing, he left the community as one which had not been able to recognize merit. Before leaving he turned all of his property over to J. c. Johnson,
Arizona republican., 1899-10-17

l which he said was his proper name, and left his affairs in the hands of By ron Bliss. Fox or Johnson, whoever
 he was, had a peculiarity which held
 him down in the estimation of the people of Glendale. He had the cOun-
 ter in his store arranged so that it was more like a barricade than a counter
 for the display of goods and the con venience of exchange. The only way to get from behind the counter was to crawl through a pair of bars which mo-
 body was ever allowed to crawl through but the proprietor, and he al- ways fastened them securely after him.
 He seemed to regard himself in a state of siege. He never left anything within reach of the townspeople but the stove, and that was boIted to the floor. The people of Glendale looked upon Fox or Johnson's precautionary measures as an unwarranted display of a want of confidence in a community whose chief tenet was temperance, the chief of all virtues, al the habit of liquOr drinking is the parent of all crimes. That is one reason he didn't get the -postofice.
 There was reciprocity of uncOnfi- dence. The populace believed that a man who could not trust it to feel of his dry goods. groceries and hardware was not a safe man to handle regis tered packages and love letters, and there was no public demonstration of regret when Fox changed his name to Johnson and went down to Watermelon Smiths to spend the few days previous to his departure from the country for ever.
