DEATH CAME SUDDENLY.
Daniel p. Bradley Expires shortly
After Returning From Work.

Daniel b. Bradley, sixty-six years OF
age, employed as machinist In the Navy
Yard dropped dead at his residence 403
Twelfth Street southeast, about 1870 yes
terday afternoon. Coroner hewitt was

gave certificate of death from natural
causes
Mr.. Bradley was in excellent health, ac-
Mr. Murphy, with whom Bradley had lived
since October and upon returning from
work yesterday afternoon Invested himself
of his hat and coat, and went up to his
room on the second floor TO wash his face
and hands for dinner. About ten minutes
after be had retired Mr.. Murphy said he
heard a dull sound, as If something had
fallen. and going TO thc-fOot of the stairs
called TO him. but received no answer. He
Immediately ran upstairs, and pushing
open the door found Bradley lying face
downward upon the floor 1t is thought
that the man had evidently been taken i'll
while washing and seated himself in a
rocking chair nearby, from which he fell
TO the floor
BRADLEY was a resident of Baltimore,
but left that city less than three years
ago to accept position in the navy
yard as a machinist. His wife Mrs. Ruth

PYRAMID PILE CURE.
Physicians Recommend IL, Druggists
Sell II, Everybody Praises II.


II we could sell one package of Pyramid
| Pile Cure to every person in America who
is troubled with piles and who would glad
ly give the 80 cents TO he rid of piles, We
would have about ten million dollars. The
only reason that we don't sell that many
packages this year is that we will not be
able to get ten million people 10 try it.
Just one application will prove its merit
and amply repay the cost of whole box.
The effect is immediate Comfort comes

any case, no matter how bad.
Pyramid Pile Cure soothes the inflamed
surface the instant it touches it. heals it,,
reduces the swelling. and puts the parts
into a healthy. active condition. There is
no substitute for it, Nothing compares
with IT.
We have never heard OF single case
that it failed to cure; we have heard of
thousands that it has cured quickly and
completely.
Here are couple of letters recently
received.
From George c. Geicll. Owens Mil, Mo.

Pyramid Pile Cure for my wife, who had
suffered very much. The first trial did her
more good than anything she has ever

From Richard Loan. Whipple, Ohio:
Il have used the Pyramid Pile Cure and
am entirely pleased and satisfied with re-
suits. II does the work and no mistake.

Fred R. Kern. son of Hon. John W.
Kern. ex-State Senator, and the Dem
ocratic candidate for Governor OF In
diana at the last election. committed
suicide by shooting himself through the
heart shortly after y O'Clock this NOM
ing at Norris saloon Twelfth and E
Streets northwest
As near as could be learned Kern
killed himself because he had been out
Of employment for three wears. and was
Respondent His remains were taken TO
the establishment of J. William Lee,
undertaken on Pennsylvania Avenue
northwest, and a despatch announcing
the death Of his son was sent to MIR.
Kern now at Indianapolis
During 4 part Of last evening young
Kern was with several friends and shortly
before midnight he went to Norris sa-
loon, accompanied by john Neal, a clerk
in the War Department There the young
men met several friends. Some little
time was spent in the saloon. Neal bid
Kern goodnight and left the saloon just
before midnight, when the doors were
closed for the night and the party broke
up. All but Kern left the place and he,
apparently without the knowledge of his
friends or Norris who was behind the
bar quietly entered a small private din
ing room at the rear of the bar.
The room was dark. Hardly had the
saloon been cleared and the doors fas-
tened before the report OF a pistol rang
out, startling everyone, and causing a
rush for the partly open door leading into
the apartment. Mr.. Norris first entered
the room and called for a light and was
followed by his bartender and another
man. The gas was hastily lighted, and
Kern's BODY was discovered lying on the
floor with bullet through his heart. He
gasped once as Mr. Norris entered the
room, and died within a minute there
after. Mr.. Norris raised Kern and sent
for the Emergency ambulance, but when
the surgeon arrived nothing could be done.
The First precinct police were called in
and word was sent TO Coroner hewitt Of
the suicide. He directed that the remains
be removed to Lees undertaking estab-
lishment 4 despatch was sent to the
father of Kern, saying simply that his
son had died very suddenly in this city.
No reply had been received early this
morning The police took charge OF the
revolver and effects of the dead man.
Young Kern had been in this city about
five years, and was widely known. About
three years ago he resigned a position
in the War Department, and has since
been out OF employment. II is under
stood he has had private means il plen-
ty, but the lack of regular employment, it
is said. preyed on his mind to an I'M
usual extent
On one occasion, it was said after the
tragedy, young Kern minated to a close
friend that he might end his life bu; the
matter was taken lightly by his acquaint-
ance. Kern resided at 1921 II Street
northwest and was thirty years old.

THE IDENTITY OF MCCARTHY.
4 Woman Recognizes the Alleged
Safe Blower as 81 ScbooImnte.

The identity of the injured man row
confined TO a ward in the Emergency Hos
pital, who was brought TO that institution
last week from Midland Junction, Va, to-
gether with a man giving the name of
Charles Foulke. the latter dying from the
effects of his wounds within few hours
after reaching that institution. is now es-
tablished. After a great deal of hard work
upon the part of the local detectives, they
found a Mrs. Anderson. residing at 1885
Pennsylvania Avenue who knew McCar-
thy and she accompanied them 10 the hos
pital and, after close examination of
the injured man. she pronounced him TO Re
Charles Mccarthy. stating that they had
attended the same school together when
children. Mccarthy, however, still main
tains his bold front. refusing to even
speak TO anyone except TO ask his nurse
for glass of water or to use violent Ian
guage when his injuries pain him. Al
though his injuries are OF a serious nature
there is a slight hope OF his being able
10 leave the Institution, but how soon the
surgeons are unable to say at present.
The police. however. are satisfied be
yond doubt that Mccarthy was injured
while engaged in thawing out a quantity
of dynamite, as the burned condition of
both his and FOulkes hands show
What has become of the other two men
who were in the party when the accident
happened is not known. but the day after
the two men had been placed in the hos
pital. two unknown white men called and
asked how the TWO fellows who were in
jured in the railroad wreck at Midland
we're getting along, stating that they were
present at the time their injuries We're
received When asked TO call around the
next day. they walked out and have never
been seen since. The police are of the
opinion that the two men were the rest
of the gang who had decided to risk find
ing ont how their comrades were.
