Between Uavrc de Grace and Abcr-
deem. on "Wednesday evening. man sup
posed to be John +. Fcchly. of Lynn.
Mass. created much excitement ON Il
train of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road. The man. who was powerfully
built, arose from his seat and chased the
passengers from the coach in which he
had been riding. Then he plunged the
knife or razor into his throat. With
frantic force he gashc,l at his throat until
the winhpipe and jugular vein had been
severed. and then he fell to the floor
with Il gaping wound rs the result of his
work. He was put off the train at Aber-
deem. where DIR. Charles ii. Kricte took
him in charge. The pulse could hardly
be distinguished. but by means of two
salt solution injections into the right
breast the man was rallied considerably
He was taken 10 Baltimore, where he
died.

REBUILD THE kIDNEYS

Any kidney or bladder trouble is a
serious one and should ave early and
right attention. The kidneys are slow
to yield to disease and when they do.
overwork is the usual cause. An af-
fected kidney is an exhausted one i'm
pure blood has weakened it; the rem
edy needed is one that will restore
strength and rebuild the kidney itself.
This DR.. Harter's Iron Tonic will do.
1t has been doing it for forty-fVe years
and no other remedy has ever been held
in such universal favor.
The kidneys filter impurities out or
the blood. When the blood is bad the
kidneys get CIogged with these poisons.
DR.. Harter's Iron Tonic cures by neu-
tralizing the Impurities, by Fastening
their expulsion, by building up the It's
sues Of the kidneys, and by giving
these troubles it is also repairing all
the delicate machinery Of the body.
This is the best of all tonics. 1t
does everything that any ordinary tonic
can do and very many important things
that other remedies cannot do. Nor
can it do anything but good; 1t is ao-
solutely harmless. and can be given TO
upp the strength n to hasten the
cure of any invalid, young or old. Or
binary iron sometimes harms, but the
iron in Harter's Tonic is in such form
that it does no harm. 1t enriches the
blood, strengthens the stomach, and
aids digestion. Made by DR.. Harter
Medicine Co, Dayton, Ohio. Sold

John Most ArraIgned

New York, September 16.-John Most
was arraigned in police court today
charged with having violated section
SIS of the penal cod in publishing an
article tending to disturb the public
peace. He told the magistrate that he
would conduct his own defense. The
article in The Freiheit which consti-
tuted alleged offense and which was
headed Murder Against Murder" was
according to Most, a reprint from a
book published fifty-fve years ago and
previously Reproduced by him in The
Freiheit fifteen years ago. He argued
that as the number of The Freiheit in
which the article last appeared was
not distributed until Friday, Septem-
Der 9Th it could not have inspired the
assassination of President Mckinley.
At the afternoon session Most pre-
sented a receipt from a news company
to show that the paper containing the
article had been delivered at IL a. m.
on Friday. On the request Of the dis
trict attorney. the magistrate said he
would hold Most for trial, although he
did not think that the article had been
printed because Of the Buffalo crime.
He fixed bail at $500.

do You want q lawyer TO defend you
Csolgosz look at me and answer9s
District Attorney Penny fired these
at the prisoner, his voice rising with
each succeeding question. but Czol-
gosz stubbornly refused to answer.
The district attorney respectfully sug-
gested tina counsel be assigned TO de-
fend the prisoner and ascertain what
he had better do as to his plea to the
indictment before the a~rraignment.
Judge Emory then asked the prisoner
before the bar IL he had counsel, but
there was no answer. despite the fact
that the police officers told him
the judge was speaking and that he
must answer.
The court hen said: "Czolgosz. you
having appeared for arraignment in
the court. without counsel. the law
makes il the duty of the court TO assign
counsel The bar association of our
county has considered the matter and
suggested the names OF certain gentle
men Of high character for such assign
ment. The court has seriously con-
sidered the question and after much
consideration has concluded to follow
the suggestions made by the associa-
ton. The court. therefore. assigns the
Hon. Lorain L. Lewis and Hon. Rob-
ert c. Titus as you counsel"
Judge Emory directed the officers TO
notify the attorneys and remove the
prisoner.
Czolgosz was handcufed to the de-
tectives who started out of the court
room with him. The crowd surged at
ter them. but found the exit barred by
policemen.
Outside the court room door. the
prisoner was surrounded by the police
men and hurried down stairs into the
basement, whenc he was taken
through the tunnel to h Jail across
Delaware avenue Whether he was left
there for the night or taken elsewhere,
the police refused to say.
District Attorney Penny said that
Justices Lewis and Titus would be no
titled and given an opportunity TO talk
with the prisoner and that he hoped to
arraign Czolgosz tomorrow.
