ITALIAN PRIEST ROBBED,
Clever Swfnd1ers Play q Neat Trick
and Are Enriched $4,000
Thereby.

According to story just received
from Italy, a couple of clever rascals,
said to be Americans, played conf
dence game lately on an Italian priest
by which they profted to the extent
of $4,000. They have not been
caught. Rev. Father NJ. Crosse, a
member of the Society of Jesus, who
is superior of the Jesuit institute at
Turin, was the victim. Two hand
somely dressed men, apparently
Americans or Englishmen, called upon
him about a fortnight ago and told
him that they were the trustees of
rich orphaned boy, whose father had
been killed in the war in the Trans
vaal. They told the priest that they
wished to place the boy under his
care and have him educated in the in
stitute. At the same time, they said
that they were custodians of 100000,
which belonged to their ward, and
this money they desired to leave in
the priests charge.
Father Crosse consented to take
the boy under his care and also agreed
to accept custody of the funds, as sug-
gested. The two strangers displayed
several bundles of bank notes, appar-
emily genuine, which they placed in
compartments in the safe which
Father Crosse accommodatingly
opened for them. The pair then left
the house, stating that they were 60
ing to Milan, where they had left
their young charge, and would re-
turn with him.
Several days passed, but neither of
the men returned. Father Crosse
then, having become suspicious, went
to his safe. He found that notes ag-
gregating 6 10000, all the funds of the
institute, were gone, and that the
bundles of so-called bank notes left
by the two strangers contained moth
ing but waste paper.
The men, under the eyes of the
priest, had extracted the institutions
money in the safe while placing their
own counterfeits in the compart-
ments.
The police of the principal cities of
Europe and this country have been
notified.

SAW MURDER IN DREAM.
Nebraska Arrest in the FuIIhart Case
as a Result of Description
Furnished by Sister,

Indications are that a Nebraska fugi-
tive murderer has been captured and
will be brought to justice through a
remarkable exhibition of mental tele-
pathic interest existing between sis.
ter and brother. On the night of No
vember % last w. H. Fullhart. a
wealthy cattleman living near Broken
Bow. Custer county, Neb., was MUIR
dered on his ranch. That night his
sister, Phoebe Fullhart, living on a
farm near Huntington, Ind, expert
enced a remarkable dream. in which
she saw plainly every detail of her
brothers murder and went through
bitter struggle with the murderer.
She awoke in perspiring condition
and was nearly Frustrated from a
nervous weakness.
The crime in Nebraska was not dis
covered till two days later, when the
sister received news of it. She at
once forwarded a description of the
man she had seen kill her brother in
her dreams, and suspected man tai
lied in appearance exactly with this
description. He was arrested, and the
sister has sent her attorney, j. S. Bran
yam, of Huntington, to assist in his
prosecution. Miss Fullhart described

SCHOOL FOR GOSPEL SINGERS
Ira ID. Sankey En- Route to New York
to Establish New Instf-
4 tuition.

Ire D. Sankey, famed co-laborer of
Dwight L. Moody, hopes to parallel in
New York the work which the late
evangelist initiated at Mortified.
During their long association both be-
ieved in the effectiveness of combined
exhortation and Gospel song. North
field now has an institute which pre-
pares men for evangelistic work. Mr..
Sankey now proposes to establish in
New York school for Gospel singers,
and cooperation between the two in
stitutions is likely.
Before sailing for the United States
from London the other day. after the
completion of three weeks lectur-
ing tour in England and Ireland, Mr..
Sankey said he intended to establish
his school early next year. In explain
ing his plans he continued:
Many of our friends have suggested
the advisability of perpetuating the
musical system which has always
proved such popular side to Mr..
Moody's evangelical work. 1 have un-
dertaken the task by mapping out a
regular course of instruction built
upon the lines of my long and interest
ing experience"

B| adder Troubles,

The urinary organs are probably the most i'm
portant part of the sewage system in the human
body. Itis their duty to carry off the poisonous
matter that the kidneys seperate from the blood.
lt1s an absolute necessity that the urinary organs
be kept i'll good condition if they are to carry off
all the poisons passed them by the kidneys. Cen
orally speaking the kidneys cause all troubles in
the urinary organs, When the kidneys get weak
or diseased they cannot properly do the work
assigned them, and as a consequence they allow
poisonous matter to flow back into the system
and cause disease and death. By strengthening
the kidneys and making them do their work
promptly and thoroughly all these ills are avoid
ed. All people who have used Morrow's Kid-ne-
oids for diseases of the urinary organs are
unanimous in stating that they can find no other
remedy equal to them.

Bright'S Disease.

Brght's Disease is the final stage of kidney
disease. It is due to a weak, impure condition
of the blood caused by failure of the kidneys to
thoroughly filterit. Poisons accumulate in the
Kidneys and soon their interiors become fest
erng rotten mass giving off virulent and
most poisonous matter. This poison gets into the
blood and makes it still more virulent. Bright's
Disease is insldious because it exists long time
without the knowledge of its victim 1t is decep-
tive for it deludes even on the death bed with
hopes of sure recovery. 1t is relentless foy 1t
devastates the world, causing more death and
misery than war, famine and drink combined.
But Bright's Disease is no longer incurable
There is one remedy that can overcome it where
ever they meet. Morrow's kid-ne-oids cure
Bright's Disease by acting on the kidneys, toning
them up and strengthening them and making
them do their duty promptly and thoroughly.
