Evils of Filtration,

"1n Irritation there is the same dissipat-
ed element of excitement SO beguiling in
ng-uncertanty; in fact, we might
add to the dictionary definition a still
later one: To flrt. gambling in hearts,"
writes Frances Evans, about Men" in
the April Ladies Home Journal. The
flirt, like the gambler. feeds upon the in
toXication of his passions In a few years
he becomes incapable of steadfast, endur-
ing love, that feeling which in civilized
man is separated from the love of the bar
barian by the clements of Ideally, of
spiritual sympathy as distinct from mere
ly the attraction of brute nature. The
OPEN minded, open-s0uled, manly man is
apt to express himself in abrupt praise Of
what he likes, but the tiirt knows better
than to take the edge off of a compli-
ment by giving it publicity. The flrt is
invariably confidential in his manner. A
nrt becomes INSCRIPTIONS in his rela-
tons with women no matter how high a
code of honor he may abide by in other
matters, His conscience is calloused on
one side beyond remedy. There is no germ
which develops more rapidly than the
Irritation bacteria Given a young man
OF woman whose pride is wounded more
deeply than his or her love by member
of the opposite Sex, then, if there be a

She has never been i'll a minute, has
never been off duty a day since she ar
rived there, and at one time at IIl Ca
ney had 10 sick and wounded soldiers
under her charge. Only one of them
died. All of her superior officers and
associates, as we'll as her patients,
speak in the highest terms of her skill
her energy and devotion.
Mrs. Ennis is a co'ored woman. a ma
tive of Santa Cruz, West indies. and
is now 80 years old She came to this
country with her husband who was a
steward on the Inflated steamship
Elbe, of the North German Lloyd com

years ago on the coast of Ireland. After
his death she entered the school for
trained nurses connected with the
Freedman's hospital for coIored people

Institution in April. 1898. From that
time until she went to Santiago in July

ton regarding Sister Mary Larkin, who
was one of three nurses who died while
on duty during the war. Sister Mary

Herkschervlle, Pa, August 81, 1863
She had for years an ardent desire to
consecrate her life in special manner
to the service of God, but her duties
to her family detained her in the world.
She was finally at liberty to follow her
aspirations and entered the Community
OF Sisters of Charity at Emmitsburg,
Nd, June II. 1891.
During her novitiate she made gen.
erous efforts 20 become a true Sister

Mary Larkin was first sent to the naval
hospital, Norfolk, Va, thence to Mon

PUMPED OUT THE POISON
Frank Donnelly Tried to Shuttle
Off the Coil.
A FONDNESS FOR DRINK
The Cause of AL His Trouble-His Wife
Was Forced to Leave Him and
He Decided to Throw Up
the Game With Fate.

Frank Donnelly, a miner employed at
the Green Mountain mine, brought
trouble upon himself by INDUCING in
drink till his wife left him. Last even
ing he sought to end his troubles by
swallowing a dose of morphine but DR..
Leggat reached his side before it was
too late with a stomach pump with
which he so effectually pumped the
poison and suicidal resolutions out of
him that he lives to repent his rash
ness.
Donnelly lived with his wife in a
couple of rooms in the basement Of the
tenement house at 11S East Granite
street. He worked regularly and they
would have gotten along happily
enough had it not been Tor his fond
ness for drink. for there appeared to
be no other difficulty between them.
But Donnel!y would drink and the wife
had to suffer deprivations because of
it. The squalid little apartments were
evidence of that. wednesday he came
home drunk again. The W1tes pa
thence had gone the limit and there was
a scene. Thursday she packed her
trunk and went home to her people in
Salt Lake.
Donnelly came home from his work
last evening. There was no wife and
no supper awaiting him. The two little
rooms We're cold and cherries. A sense
of what he had brought upon himself
came over him. He grew respondent
and decided to end his life. Without
even waiting to wash himself, he pro-
cured morphine and, sitting down in a
chair at the foot of his bed, swallowed
the potion that was to bring surcease
to himself and the opposite to his wife
About o'clock a. E. Richie, who
lives in apartments in the rear of the
same building with Donnelly, came by
the door. Seeing it open he stepped
in to speak to his neighbor. Donnelly
sat bumped over in the chair. It was
evident something was wrong. The
drug had taken effect, but he was still
conscious and in reply to Ritchies
questions told him what he had done.
Richie lost no time in running TO DR..
Leggats office. Informing DR.. Leggat
of what had happened, he hurried back,
and by the time the physician arrived

The unexpected call had come at

of the captains residence, which was
some mitigation of the hardship, but
then it was still a separat ton; and to
tighten this terrible condition it was
arranged that the bereaved husband

est interest lies. He expressed himself
as much pleased with what he saw of

fully 10 or Is men were crying openly
and the majority of those present
walked quietly down the street for more
than block without speaking a word
1t was like a funeral procession.
More than tragedy was being en-
acted in the little room off the court
room, where Dreyfus listened to the
reading of the verdict. He had been
told the result by his lawyers and he
wept bitterly; but when in the presence
of the official court martial he listened
impassively to the sentence. His wife,
who was waiting in torture and sus-
pense at her house, bore the news
bravely, and when visiting her hus
band later on, showed the onlookers
no signs of her suffering as she walked
from her carriage to the prison,
Matthew Dreyfus was not present in
court this afternoon, but visited has
brother after the verdict had been rem
dered He found him perfectly calm
and without any manifestation of sur
prise at the finding of the court. The
prisoner simply shrugged his shoulders,
uttering an impressive "Bah" adding
as he embraced his. brother, as the lat
ter was preparing to leave: Console
my wife"
The general belief is that Dreyfus will
be paEdoned but this will not satisfy
his friends who vehemently declare
that they will refuse to accept the ver-
dict and will continue the battle until
the Judgment is reversed. The verdict,
they say, is more against the Jews
than against Dreyfus, and if allowed to
stand will make their residence in
France impossible.
M. Labor and M. Demange took the
midnight train for Raris. They drove
to the station in a closed carriage, es-
corted by four mounted gendarmes.
The road was practically deserted and
no demonstration occurred en- route or
at the station. Maitre Demantre and
Maitre Labori will sign an application
for a revision of the case tomorrow,
although there is no hope that the YER
dict will be reversed. Both are much
upset, though 1t can hardly be said
that they are surprised.

the first to receive an ovation was
Lieut. PlCmmer He stood on the last
car of the train, which was reserved
exclusively for the officers of the sec
ond battalion. He never presented a
more soldlerly appearance. Attired in
the brown kahlSi uniform which has
been selected by the war department
for the new volunteer regiments, and
not even disguised to prevent a recog-
milton by his friends, who Immediately
ran to greet him, with hats in hand,
and shouting like mad, he looked a type

Billy" was lieutenant of the guard
on the train, and in addition to the
brown kahh uniform and brown he'll
met, he carried his sword, which added
greatly to his soldierly appearance.
Mayor Dodge warmly shook his hand
and wished him luck on his long jour
ney to the Philippines. Julius Zaeder
was also there, and he passed a few
packages to the lieutenant, which were
not credentials to prohibition conven-
ton.
These were quickly placed inside the
car.
orders were received for the train
to go ahead to the Fitchburg freight
ward, beyond Garden street, where the
popular Worcester boy was again given
tremendous reception by a number
of the City Guards of the Second regi-
ment that had waited there for hours
to see him. The first man to greet
the lieutenant at Garden street was a
representative of The Spy, who, by the
way, also met him at Santiago. In the
twinkllng of an eye The Spys special
artist had snapped picture of the leu
tenant, which will probably be the last
one taken of him before he leaves this
country for Uncle Sans new poses
sions.
Among those to greet him, too, was
First Lieutenant Moses II. Tisdell and
First Sergeant w. II. Allison of the
city Guards.
once again, the lieutenant was pre-
sented with several small packages as
reminders of his popularity in this city.

fus to the punishment of 10 years de-

After the reading the gendarmes
closed around the audience and pressed
them outside. Not cry nor word
was raised by anyone. Everything
passed off With complete calm. AS the
people emerged the gendarmes kept
them moving away from the court. The
small crowd Of people outside cheered
Tor the army, but the gendarmes did
not interfere, and there was not the
slightest disorder.
The judgment was read to Dreyfus in
an adjoining little room by the clerk of
the court. Dreyfus listened, impassive;
did not give the slightest sign OF emo
ton; did not utter word, and marched
back to prison like an automaton. 1t is
understood Dreyfus will be sent to Fort
Corte, in the island of Corsica.
A large crowd, which the police kept
moving, waited around the square at
which telegraph offices and the princi-
pal cafes are situated. When the peo-
pie learned the court had been out an
hour, 1t was argued that this meant a
disagreement in favor of Dneyfus. The
first indication of these watchers that a
result had been reached was when q
soldier on a bicycle came tearing along

ward the artillery barracks.
The soldiers and gendarmes keeping
