They Prayed; She Suffered.
Mrs. Judd died week ago, after 16
hours of suffering. Her infant also died.
She was a member of Dowie's congrega-

medical attendance. While Dowie and
his elders and the nurses were praying,
Mrs. Judd, according to the verdict of
the physicians who made the autopsy,
burst blood vessel owing to intense
pain. The doctors said that the treat
ment given by the medical practitioners
would certainly have saved her life.
After listening to this testimony, the
coroner's jury brought in verdict,
holding Judd, the two nurses and Dowie
to await the action of the grand jury.

One Scene of Looting.
"But, they said, ''we did, however,
witness one scene of looting, which, to-
gether with Lady Macdonald, we tried,
but unsuocessfully, to prevent.
In the palace we met the wife of an
American, accom- panied by an Ameri-

the reception was exclusively for the
members of the diplomatic corps, but
she persisted in taking the curio dealer,
whose expert opinion she wanted upon
some Of the empress ornaments.
Reaching the pavilion, the curio
dealer said:
"'Here, am informed, the most val

''In spite Of the protests of Lady Mac
Donald and ourselves, the wife of the
American tried to open the cupboards.
Finally she called an American soldier,
who pried a cupboard open with his
bayonet, whereupon, not wishing to as

withdrew"
The American representative at the
meeting made no reply.

An Excellent Combination

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the

taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitua1 constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.

there it would be absolutely useless
to attempt to prosecute anybody there
for the crime
A joint resolution was passed by

pioring and condemning the burning,
but news from LeavenwOrth is like
it always is from such scenes-no-
body wants anything done and all
who talk condone the mob's crime. 1t
