outside of the roadway on the county
road in Dayton yesterday by Deputy
Sheriff Beecham and Albsrt g. Durgin.

Emperor William was accompanied by

Field Marshal Earl Roberts, the Lord

including the members of the German
embassy and a number of officers gather

Emperor William. The latter was in
the highest spirits. He talked, and
shook hands with all around and smiled
continually. King Edward was equally
cheerful. He appeared TO be in better
health than for weeks past.
After an affectionate farewell between
the two monarehs the train started out
amid the playing of the national anthem

nj OST people think that catarrh is a
IVA disease confined to the head and
nose. Nothing is farther from the truth.
1t may be that the nose and throat is the
oftenest affected by catarrh, but if this
is so 1t is so only because these parts are
more exposed TO the vicissitudes of the
climate than the other parts OF the body.
Every organ, every duet, every cavity
of the human body is liable to catarrh.
A multitude of ailments depend ON ca
tarrh. This is true winter and summer.
Catarrh causes many cases of chronic
disease, where the victim has not the
slightest suspicion that catarrh has
anything to do with it.
The following letter which gives the
experience of Mr.. A. G. Lockhart is a
case in point:
Mr.. A. c. Lockhart, West Henrietta,
n. ", Box So, in letter written to DR..
Hartman says the following of Peruna:
"About fifteen years ago l commenced
to be ailing, and consulted a physician.

BRONCHITIS
We Know is Hard to
Control.
Our Vin0l Is Making a Won
derful Record in Curing
This Dangerous
Disease.
CALL AND LET US TELL YOU
ABOUT 1T.

Here is letter that has just come to
our attention. 1t will interest people
suffering from bronchial troubles. 1t
Is from Mr.. Geo. w. Brown, of So. Ham
over, n. H., and reads as follows:
81 have suffered with bronchial trou-
bles for over a year; tried two doctors
and have taken three or four kinds of
medicine, none of which did me any
good. At times l was so hoarse l
could not speak. Then l heard of
Vinol. After taking three bottles of
1t my voice has perfectly returned to
me. l can see that in short time /
will be all right. When | began to
take it l was very weak, but IL has
built me up and given me good appe-
tite."
This is what Vinol always does.
This is the way Vinol aecomplishes its
mission of doing good
Vinol, as we wish every one to know,
owes its power of accomplishing the
cures that it effects to the fact that it
contains the most wonderful medicinal
elements known to science for the cure
of all wasting diseases, as well as be-
ing in itself a marvellous tonic. These
medicinal propertiese exist and have here
tofore been found only in cod-liver oil.
Vinol contains these elements. For by
a scientific process the necessary eura-
tive properties of the cod-liver oil have
been separated from the fat and grease
which formerly made cod-liyer oil prep
arations so Objectionable.
As long as Ninol doc$ not contain any
of the vilc-smelling oil, and is pre-
pared by combining the sought-after
properties with delicate table wine,
it is most delicious and palatable
preparation.
We know of what We speak when
we recommend Vinol, and because
we do know that Vin0l does all we
claim for it, we unheSitatingly en-
dorse it, and guarantee at any time
TO refund the money paid for the
remedy if you are not satisfied 1t
will do all we claim for il.

ELEPHANT
Boarded a Street
Car.
Special to the Leader.

Special to the Leader.
Chicago, Aug. 24-Passengers on a
north bound Indiana avenue electric
car at 10 a. m. today had an elephant
for fellow passenger, and they didn't
relish his company.
Three small elephants belonging to
a trained animal exhibition which is
showing in the immediate neighbor-
hood, had been taken from their tent
at Indiana avenue and Thirty-seventh
street and were out for a morning
for constitutional when the clownish
member of the tribe, with ears flap
ping and proboscis working like a
pendulum, ambled from the side of the
street, to the car tracks, where he
stopped and trumpeted.
Get i'm off, get i'm off, shouted
the motorman to the colored attend
ant.
Passengers stood up and gazed in
surprise at the unusual scene, Re-
peated ringing of the gong failed to
serve as a warning to the brute, and
the motorman stopped the car.
In the meantime Pinto, performer
of no mean ability, poked his trunk
into the car before the front seat, and
climbing up, wedged his pudgy sides
between the seat and the front rail.
Excitement following this move was
increased when men and women clam
herd for the car. A man reading a
paper was the sole occupant of the
front seat and he will never know how
quickly he escaped over the side of
the car nor how grotesquely he man
aged it. Vigorous prodding by the at
tendant, who climbed to the animals
head, soon rid the car of its pachy-
dcrmateous patron.

The artists composing the company,
and very large company it is, are
said to be the first in the world.
Arthur Rigby is only to be equal
led by himself, no other performer IN
his line possessing the power or abil-
ity to put together such wonderfully
clever monologues nor are they bless
ed with his irresistible comic way.
Chas. Gano, on the opposite end to
Rigby, is a first-rate comedian, his
past performances justifying the con-
clusion that his songs and witty say
ings will be of the up-tO-the-minute
pattern. Especially popular are Ga
nos own parodies which always con
tain bright lines and are sung with
the keenest humor.
The o'I3rien troupe of acrobats, pre-
seEting an act which alone would
constitute a performance de force, will
astonish and delight the lovers of
skillful and acrobatic gyrations, the
endeavors of the children-tiny mites
of humanity-being especially won
derful, for they not only attempt but
execute tricks that would not be es-
sayed by the older and more knowing
ones.

Cambridge O., Aug. 24.-Last night
about 7:30 o'clock while William Al
lender, who conducts a small store
and restaurant at Kipling, just east
of the city, was returning to his home,
he was stopped by two men when near
the bridge at that place, who demand
ed his money, but before they had
time to take hold of him he dropped
his purse on the ground and foiled
the robbers in their work.
One of the robbers made a slash at
Allender with knife and a bottle that
he carried in his inside coat pocket
warded off the blow and saved him
from receiving what might have prov
en- fatal wound. His coat was bad
ly cut and showed that the fiend
meant business. Failing in their at
tempt the men disappeared in the
darkness and made their escape.
Allender went on to the Klondyke
mine and related his experience, and
several of his friends returned with
him to the scene and found his pock-
ct book, where it had been thrown
Mr.. Allender considers he had close
call and that the bottle in his pocket
is all that saved him, which he says
he will forever keep with the cork
intact"

lows:
The Coroner's jury that investigated
the drowning of Miss Mary Finifrock,
of York, Penn, by the upsetting of a
boat on Lake Royer last Sunday even
ing, in its verdict tonight declared
that the capsizing of the boat was due
to the criminal carelessness of
Frank Rinehart, and the jury says
Frank Rinehart willfully and felon-
iously killed and murdered Mary Fini-
frock"
Rinehart left town before the jury
gave the verdict. He has probably
gone to his home at Smithbury where
he will be arrested. 1t was in evidence
that Rinehart foolishly rocked the
boat to scare the girl. Miss Finifrock
was is years old. She and friend
Miss Burkheimer, upon the invitation
of Frank Rinehart and Allen Geizer
went out on the lake near Penmar
When in II feet of water Rinehart
began rocking the boat for fun. The
women became frightened, the boat
was upset and Miss Finifrock was
drowned. The men tried desperately
to save her. Feeling is bitter
