day afternoon and heard the grand
jury's indictment charging her with the
murder OF three persons whom she bad
been engaged 10 nurse back TO health,
but who had died under her charge aod,
according to the indictment, by her
hand. The indictments, and there are
three, one charging her with the death
of Mrs. Mary d. Gibbs, second with
the death of A. P. Davis, both of Cal
umet, and the third with that
OF Mrs. Genevieve A. Gordon, Of
Chicago, ell alleged that the cause
was the administration Of poison
GUS drugs, ten grains Of morphine or
strophine, or morphine and atrophine
together, or by some poison unknown
to the jury. For ten minutes the NO.
man stood tightly clutching the rail
while the clerk read the indictment
charging her with the murder OF Mrs
Gibbs. At length Miss Toppsn's coun-
sci spared her further agony by waving
the reading, and sll that remained vas
for her to plead. Three times she was
asked If she was guilty Of murder, and
three times she replied ia low voice,
"Not guilty." After the woman had
entered her plea her counsel asked that
the State appoint counsel for her, and
Chief Justice Mason, who presided. said
that he would take the matter under
Amusement. Mics Toppan was then
led away to her cell, where she will re-
main until some time early next spring,

removal of the city treasurer OF Buffalo

closed by order OF the directors upon
the discovery OF q defalcation ofslOO,-

their roads to ruin, family, friends and

and where one Ia tempted and falls, to

opinion, can be happy in the most hum

'Yes, sir" we replied, i've have those things" Mandy said somethin' about getting a churn and set of dishes, but I reckon I'll have to go down street for them" No, sir; we have a large as- sortment of churns, a big stock of dishes at bottom prices, and we think We can please you" Well, by Ned I guess you have everything Mandy put on this list except the matches and pair of shrars and comb and soap" We keep matches" replied the clerk, "and our line of scissors and shears is the largest in the city. We have a good line of combs, every one a bar gain. and our Topaz toilet soap and Calla Lily borax soap sells at 5 cents a bar and makes this hard water in Phoenix wash like rain water" Well, what haven't you got, anyway? I guess you may tie these things all up and pack 'em pretty we'll as I have lnng way to go. I'm going down street to get some powder and a bottle of vaselne and some paper and envel- opes. What. you keep these things? Well. this is the biggest little store I ever saw. I am glad I happened in here. I'm a couple of dollars ahead on my buy. Of course. there may be something thar don't suit, and" Your money back for anything you have purchased that don't suit at Davidson's cash store," replied the clerk.

I'll bring Mandy along. Good day.
