WHY MEx1CANs ARE sNUBBED.
The New Ambassador Happened TO B
the Prosecutor Of MaXimilian.

Washington, April 14.-An interest
ing situation is entliled in social and
diplomatic circles ove. the fact that the
Mexican ambassador, Senor Azpiroz,
because he was prosecuting attorney
for the Mexican government when the
unfortunate Maximilian was con-
demned to death, is persona non grata
to several of the European govern
ments This makes him unacceptable
to thei- ENJOYS here and it will be a
considerable Undertaking to entertain
this ambassador family without
wcunding the suscepibilities of other
diplomats.
The Belgian minister and the Coun-
t-ss LichterveIde gave an "at home
Saturday afternoon in compliment of
the women of tins cabinet. Almost
every foreigner of n0le in Washington
was present except those from the
Mexican embassy. The Belgians must
sustain the attitude of the emperor of
Austria, who, since the tragic death of
his brother, has refused to be on
friendly terms with those whom he
holds responsible for that event. Be
sides, ,Maximilian's Wits was a Belgian
princess.

JOHN 3. GAFFNEY.
Inspector o'oay Thinks He Has the Mar
Who 6uncoed evi Lincoln.

John B. Gaffney, a horse dealer re-
siding in Boston, was brought to Wor-
cester yesterday afternoon by Inspector
Patrick O'Day and booked at station
last night charged with obtaining
property under false pretences. Inspect
or O'Day says Gaffney is the man that
bought a pair of horses for $500 from
Levi Lincoln a short time ago and ten
dered in payment draft that proved to
be worthless. He was arrested in Bos-
ton by the police of that city, and when
brought to Worcester by Inspector
O'Day yesterday, refused to talk about
the case or tell where the horses are.
The horses were located by the Off
GERS Tuesday in a stable in Boston, but
on looking them up found that they had
been stabbed there over Monday night,
but taken away again in the morning
Inspector O'Day also knows where they
were Tuesday night and expects to be
able to get hold of them shortly.
Mr.. Lincoln intends TO prosecute
Gaffney, who is evidently well up in the
horse business. In making the trade
with Mr.. Lincoln, the man who pur-
chased them cited several well known
local men as references. Inquiry among
the men given as references developed
the fact that he was ar imposter Gaff-
ney will be arraigned in the central dis
trict court this morning on a charge Of
having obtained property under false
pretences.

troub1es For relief they turn to the many
alcoholic stimulants, malt extracts and
other compounds" so widely advertised
to cure the ailments of women. These
produce a false stimulation, and the suf-
ferer finds herself compelled to take more
and more as time passes, and soon becomes
an unwilling slave to strong drink. What
a weakly woman needs is Dr. Pierce's Fa-
Vorite Prescription, which contains not a
grain of'opium or a single drop of alcohol
or other dangerous stimulaut. 1t acts
directly upon the womanly organs, stop
ping drains, restoring displacements and
having wonderfully beneficial effect upon
the general health. Suffering women who
wish to consult DR.. R. v. Pierce himself can
do so by mail, addressing him at Buffalo,
N. Y. He makes no charge whatever for
advice.
Mrs. Rena Hensel, of Massillon, Stark Co.,
Ohio writes: II had been troubled with chronic
constipation and female weakness and doctored
with different physicians, none of whom seemed
to help me. ! saw one of your advertisements,
and thought would try your medicines. did
so and with good results. Took two bottles of
DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and one
Of his 'Favorite Prescription and can say I
am cured of my troubles, thanks to DR.. Pierce
and his medicines. They do world of good to
those who give them good trial"
If you want book that tells about all
woinan's diseases, and how to treat them
at home, send III one-cent stamps TO DR..
Pierce to pay postage, and he will mail
you a free copy of his great thousand
page illustrated Common Sense Medical
Adviser For heavier, handsome cloth
binding, 81 stamps. 1t is the grandest
medical book for popular reading ever
written

CLUB MEN,
Their Wives Say They
Keep Late Hours.
BRENNAN SEEN.
Patrolman Dustin and The
English Social Club.

Patrolman Bertram C. Dustin of sta
ton 2, who is under suspension by order
Of Mayor Dodge at the request of Chief
of Police brennan, appeared before
Mayor Dodge yesterday morning at the
city hall, in company with Chief of Po-
lice brennan, and stated his reasons
for going to the home of Mrs. Moore
and trying TO get her daughter to swear
that she was mistaken in regard to the
identity of Fred r, Nichols.
Neither Chief brennan nor Mayor
Dodge would say just what disposition
had been made of the case, but admit
ed that Officer Dustin was not dropped
from the force, neither was he reinstat-
ed. The mayor and Chief of Police
brennan will consider his case for a
few days before taking final action.
officer Dustin takes a philosophi-
cal view of the situation, and
says he is not worrying about what
the public think, and is not at
all concerned as to what action the
officials will take. In regard to the COM
munication from members Of the Eng
lish Social club, which appeared in a
morning paper yesterday, officer Dus-
tin said that whatever he did there was
went there, he said, at the time men
toned in the letter, under orders from
Sergt. Hickey.
Chief of Police brennan does not take
kindly to the remarks in the letter sent
to officer Dustin by the members of the
English Social club, and told a Spy
man yesterday afternoon that he never
heard of such action on the part Of any
body of men before. II am certain"
said the chief, that If officer Dustin
went to the rooms Of the English Social
club it was under orders OF his superior,
and that he was needed there. The
club has been source of much trouble
and complaints have been made of the
noise and carousing that have been go
ing on in the rooms at different times.
Wives of the members have been to me
and complained about their husbands
staying out late nights, and neighbors
have complained about disturbances in
the rooms as late as o'clock in the
morning.
The trouble which the letter refers to,
happened in the rooms Saturday even
ing, just before the officer was suspend
ed Members Of the club claim that
officer Dustin came to the rooms and
made some uncomplimentary remarks
about the club. and said that the club
would never receive a license as long
as he was q member Of the police force.
On account of the unusual number
of complaints, Chief brennan was OBJ
liged, he says, to report the matter to
station officers to have it looked after
and it was for this purpose that officer
Dustin went to the club.

Two important w1its of attachment
were filed by Blackmer &c Vaughan

behalf Of Helen b. Pfaffman and her

cipal sufferers from the Leicester ac-
l.cident last December. In the collision
her foot was badly crushed. She claims
also to have suffered from the shock
ana to have received several minor in
Juf1es. She was taken to the city hos
pital Immediately after the accident
Everything possible was done to re-
lieVe her sufferings and prevent the
necessity for amputation, but after a
number of weeks treatment the doc
tors decided it necessary to remove A.
portion of one foot.
Mrs. Pfaffmann submitted to the on
GRAFTON, and was able to leave the hos
pital only after many weeks of pain
ana suffering. She left vowing veng-
eance against the Worcester and Sinh
urban railway, and her friends are
therefore not surprised that she de-
mands $4,000 as compensation. Her
husband, who sues at the same time
claims damages for loss of his wifes
services.
The filing Of the attachment writs
did not come as surprise. Blackmer

tlon 10 sue several weeks ago There
