 Derby, May S.-Two serious demon strations occurred yesterday i'll the strike of the textile workers at the Paugasset mills. At noon Mrs Am prose Griff1ths, who has been teaching the girls who have taken the places of the strikers, was set upon by several hundred women, led by two of Mrs Gritf1ths's sisters, and was followed to her home amid cries of 'sScab' and the footing of horns.
 At 6 o'clock a more serious disturb ance took place when the strikers at tempted to mob Amy Briggs, one of the women recently employed. The police anticipated the action of the women and formed a cordon about Miss Briggs at the factory gate. Then accompanied and followed by a throng which was augmented until it num- bered 5000, she made her way to the shelton bridge, where the Derby po- lice had to leave her.
 Here she was surrounded more closely and threats of violence were made, but she ultimate escaped when persons in the crowd became engaged In fight among themselves. The girls home is now under police guard

able to Pay Him ST, GOO, Suspend.
 Poughkaepsie, May s.The sensa- tional speculation of Stephen Me Carthy, until recently butler for Mrs James Roosevelt and who went into the stock market with capital of $SI and made winnings of almost $200O0, lost most of it yesterday in the collapse of the brokerage firm with which he did business.
 Mccarthy began speculating about month ago, after hearing q conversa- tion between guests whom he was serving in the Roosevelt mansion. He plunged into the market, with ap- parently no method nor reason, yet everything he bought went up rapidly.
 He traded with May & Winter, who paid him $2.0OO. Last Friday he wanted to settle, and said the firm owed him SIT 1000, but they said that they were indebted to him only SIP, ,O00.
 Mccarthy employed lawyer, and the brokers promised to settle. The next day, Saturday, they paid Me Carthy 2,50O more.
 To-day MT Winter announced that the firm would have to suspend tenn porariIv. The firm at one time owed Mccarthy $24, ,OOO. so phenomenal, had been his luck. The butler has thrown up his job, and has gone to New York to enjoy his prosperity.

PETRIFIED CAT FOUND.
Animal Was Wedged Between Two
 Walls of an Old Brooklyn Church


 While workmen were engaged in tearing down the old St. Marks Epis- copal stone church, at Bedford avenue and South Fifth street, Williamsburg. Saturday, which is to make way for the new East River bridge, they came across q petrifed cat in marrow aper- ture between two walls. The condition in which it was discovered indicated that the feline had dropped down the aperture from the upper part of the church. Undertakers who looked at the cat expressed the opinion that the animal had been there at least fifty years.
 The eat is hard as granite, and in a perfect state of preservation. The paws are crossed in an x shape. The head is partly fatatened. showing that the animal was wedged so tightly in the aperture that it could move neither up nor down. The claws are perfect, and so is the tail, to which some fur, while hardened, still clings.

Many AccessiOns to Membership of
Savannah Yacht Club.

The expected meeting of the Savannah
Yacht Club was not held yesterday after
noon. The unpleasant weather made
trip to the club not the most agreeable
way in which members could spend the
afternoon and there was not a quorum.
1t was intended to consider the resolu-
ton submitted at the last meeting rela-
tive to increasing the initiation fee and
limiting the membership. The initiation
fee is now SIS. but it is designed to double
it The membership is close upon 500
now, and some of the members want to
make the maximum $780,
Opposition, 1t is said, has developed
against the membership limitation, and
THAI measure may not be carried. 1t is
believed however, that the initiation fee
will be increased. Since the resolution
increasing the initiation fee and limiting
the membership was introduced, there
has been an unprecedented number Of ap-
plications. Those who had thought of APP
plying for membership did so in a hurry
in order that they might get in before
the resolution could become effective.
Some fifty-four names for membership
are posted now, and it is said there are
some twenty-five more who will make i'm
mediate app ication.
This very great activity has induced
those who have favored the plan to limit
the membership to ser.ou ly consid, TIL =
advisabi ity of max ng the maximum 60
instead of $50 ILdeed, it is proba l Is
that this would have to be done, as the
names now en- the boa d and these that
are to be posted shortly would run the
membership of the club far above $50
Under the rules, the reso ut On could
be made retroactice, ra. Il g the init at On
fee upon those app ying before its pas
sage or excluo ing app ans bee use they
would run the number above $50.
Great vigor is shown by the Yacht
Club now, and the members who hav
always displayed the greatest inter st
are proud of it. Commod1 re w. w. S arr,

DISCARDED
The Old Methods of Treating Piles
and Rectal Diseases SuppIanted by
the Pyramid Pile Cure.


the Pyramid Pile Cure.
The old methods of treating piles by
igature, by the knife or by the cruel
methods of d.latation, besides causing
Intense pain and frequently collapse and
death, are now known to be but mere
a.akeshifts as far as cure is concerned.
The liver is responsible for nearly
every case of plies and the mistake has
oeen made of treating plies as pure.y
ocal disease. Such is not the case, how
ever, and the success Of the new treat
ment known as the Pyramid Pile Cure
has demonstra ed It,
The Pyramid Pile Cure Is not a salve
or ointment but q suppository which Is
applied at night and absorbed into the
sensitive rectal membrane and acts both
as a local and a constitutional treat
nlent and in cases of many years stand
ing this treatment has been effectual.
Thousands OF pile sufferers bear wit
ness to the inestin able value Of the Pyr-
amid and even those who have under
gone surgical operations wi bout a cure
have been happily surprised by results
from a few weeks treatment with the
Pyramid.
The relief from pain is so immediate
that patients sometimes imagine that
the Pyramid contains opiates or cocaine
because the relief is SO instantaneous
but the Pyramid Pile Cure is guaranteed
absolutely free from any OPP ate or min
eral poison whatever.
The relief is the result OF the astrin-
gent properties of the rem dy which
causes the little tumors and contested
blood vessels to contract and normal
circulation is established.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is strictly
scientific. both in its composition and in
its therapeutic action and the best fes-
ture Of II is that 81 is perfectly safe and
harmless. No i'll effects ever result from
its use, but only positive benefit.
A singular fact. in view OF the largf
number OF patent medicines before the
public Is that the Pyramid is the only
pile cure OF national reputation. It Is
the only pie cure popular enough and
morltorious enough to be found In every
drug store in the United States. 1t SELL
at so cents fer a fun sized package.
