IF YOU ARE CONSCIOUS OF
FAILING STRENGTH AND
ENERGY THIS MONTH,
MAKE USE OF
Paine'sC
Compound
No Other Medicine Can Guar.
antee Such Happy Results.

Men and women, young and old, of
every rank in life, freely admit that
they are more conscious of overtaxed
nervous strength in the hot weather
than at any other season.
When such a condition is eXper-
fenced, Paines Celery Compound af-
fords advantages and results that no
other remedy can offer with honesty.
1t vigorously cleanses the blood and
regulates the tardy circulation. 1t
neys and enables them to filter from
the blood all waste and morbid mat
tiers; 1T secures strong, firm nerves,
gives sweet and natural sleep to the
nerve-tired and brain-weary. In a
word, Paine's Celery Compound is a
true summer life giver and health
builder. Mr.. E. NJ. Stephenson, of the
American Baptist Publication Society,
III Wabash Ave-, Chicago, ILL.,, says
Il used Paine's Celery Compound for
an acute attack of nervous prostration
at a time when i had a large number
of engagements ahead. / took it ac-
cording to directions, and kept on till
two bottles had been used. All trem-
bling, throbbing and vertigo diSap-
peared the first week. / kept on with
my engagements after that week and
gained all the time. From the start
my appetite improved, and 1 assimilat-
ed my food and increased in weight.
The Compound strengthened my voice
also, preventing WEAKNESS in speaking
and singing. A very noticeable effect
was the Strengthening of the eyes,
making it easy to read on the trains"

ENGAGEMENT OFF,
THEN A SUICIDE
r. r. Remington, of New York, Who
Was to Have Married Miss Van
Allen, Shoots Himself.

NEWPORT, r. l., Aug. 1S.-R. r.
Remington, of New York, committed
suicide by shooting this afternoon. He
was engaged to marry Miss MAY Van
Alien, daughter of James j. Van Allen,
of this place. It is thought that he
was respondent. 1t was announced re-
Gently that his marriage to Miss Van
Allen had been indefinitely postponed.
Mr.. Remington was at the head of
the Remington Advertising agency. a
New York concern.
He had been staying at the La Forge
house, from which he took a walk earIv
this afternoon. He went to the &eading
room at about 2 o'clock, and was in
the library alone when he fired two
shots from revolver, aiming at a spot
between the eyes. The bullets penetrat-
ed the brain and death is thousAt to
have been instantaneous.
Mr.. Remington was we'll known
among the summer residents in this
city, and had been closely identified
with the social world here for the last
sevensor eight years. His engagement
to Miss May Van Allen, daughter of
James Van Allen, and granddaughter
of MurS William AStor, has been dis
cussed for some months. At first it was
denied, and then affirmed, but it is
generally believed that there was a
definite engagement, which, however,
was broken some three weeks ago. 1t is
said Mr.. Van Allen was greatly op-
posed to the engagement from the be-
ginning. Since then Mr.. Remington has
been respondent, although when ask
ed about the engagement he steadily
affirmed that he was to be married in
the fall.
Mr.. Remington was thirty-five years
old and member of the firm of Rem
tngton Brothers, New York. He had al
ways been known as a man of quiet
tastes. His death has caused a tre-
mendouS sensation here

CORNERS JURY HOLDS WALTON.
Soldier Is Charged With MansIaughter
in Second Degree.

A coroner's jury of Anoka county
has returned a verdict of manslaughter
in the second degree against Capt
Percy A. Walton, Company F, N. G. S.
NJ, for the accidental killing of John
Kirsko, the three-year- old son of Mi
chael Kirsko, who was mistaken by
the soldier for piece of paper as the
little boy lay in the grass on the rifle
range, at Columbia Heights, Sunday
forenoon.
The accused was again released upon
his own recogniZance by County At
torney Pratt, after the verdict of the
coroner's july had been rendered. He
will probably be arrested later upon a
warrant charging him with the specific
crime of manslaughter, arraigned be-
fore the municipal judge at Anoka and
given hearing.
At that hearing Capt. Walton will be
either held to the grand jury upon
the evidence or discharged. In the
event of an Indictment being returned
the young soldier would have to de-
fend himself against the charge in the
district court of that county.
The jury was impaneled at o'clock
yesterday afternoon. The six men COM
posing it, after being sworn in as such,
went in body to the home of Michael
Kirsko, father of the dead boy, more
than a half mile across the fields, to
where the dead child lay. From there
to the spot where Capt. Walton stood
and fired and where the boy fell dead

1880 was told by a Mexican peon that
ne mad a ten-year- old boy squeezed to
death by coach whip few years be-
fore. The man said that on another
occasion his wife was attacked by a.
coach whip, which threw it's coils about
her quicker than she could see.
"She was too frightened to do more
than scream and fall to the ground.
When her daughter came running up
and quickly released her by merely lln-
wrapping the snakes tail. Strange as
this may seem, it is very easy way
to release victim in the coach-whin
snakes grasp, for while the reptiles
constructive powers are abnormal, a
child may unwrap the coils by begin
ming at the tail"
DO you believe that snakes have
the power to charm animaIs?"
Yes. There is a certain power to
charm in the snakes eyes and move
ments. l saw only the other day typ-
1cal Illustration of the power of a snake
to fascinate.
"Over in the pine woods I saw a
| ground squirrel fascinated by black
gopher snake. The forked tongue of
the snake darted out of it's mouth al
most as regularly and rapidly as the
needle of sewing machine rises and
falls. The squirrel seemed to watch
it spellbound. The snake crept nearer
and nearer.
when the gopher snake was within
two or three inches from the squirrel.
it gave a leap and three coils
about the squirrel. Instantly the charm
was gone. The fascination Of charm
there had been over the little animal
was no doubt broken the moment the
serpent's coils were about the squirrel.
for the animal gave three convulsive.
terrified chirps and realized that its
death moment had come
Il believe implicitly that all snakes
have certain degree of power to fas-
| cinate their victims to death. Black
snakes, gopher snakes and racers have
the power to a large degree. Rattle
| snakes have the most fascinating pow
er among all the poisonous serpents
in the Southwest.
"The indications of charming among
poisonous snakes are deceiving some
times. Poisonous snakes fang their
prey once only. The poison does not
kill at once
1.-THE victim f1utters to a branch or
runs a short distance and stops. The
snake watches 1t. The poison does it's
| deadly work and the bird falls.
Anyone who comes up, not having
seen the attack, might be readily de-
| ceived into imagining that it was the
glance of the snake and not the poison
that caused the victim to fall"

FIGHTS HARD FOR LIBERTY.
George Williams Locked Up, Charged
With Grand Larceny.

A young man giving his name as
George Williams, was arrested yester-
day afternoon and locked up at the
central station, charged with grand
larceny
About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon
he and a companion, who Williams
says was Frank Lydon, went into the
basement of the Powers Mercantile
company, and Williams was discovered
trying to leave the store carrying with
him a lot of silverware in boxes.
He was intercepted by Special Of
f1cer Shaft, but fought so desperately
that other members of the store came
to the assistance of the officer. After
a hard struggle Williams made his
escape, but Wsas shortly captured by
Robert Knox, a buyer.
Williams claimed after he was lock-
ed up in the cell that he knew nothing
of what happened, and said that he
must have been drunk at the time, as
he had been drinking heavily all the
afternoon with his. friend Lydon.
Lydon made good his escape and had
not been discovered at a late hour last
night.

CoURTSHlP CLUB FORMED
BY YOUNG MEN
Object is Not Matrimony But Amuse-
ment Simply,

The city of New York boasts of club
which has for its object the promotion
OF alm!ess courtship, In so far as matri-.
mony is concerned. A number of young
men there have banded themselves to-
gethef to make love to damsels, who. in
stead OF looking for proposals, are content
VIII tn what is called "a good time
Their knights escort them to theaters
p1cnics and other amusements, make
them presents, and are generally atten-
tive to even greater degree than the
ordinary ordd16 enamered swain. Couples who
break the rules of the club by marrying
have to pay fine of $50 and are forever
banished rom the club. One or two
couples have already paid this fine and
entered into the forbidden state, a dinner
Tor each occasion being held by the club
to console the members for their loss.
An equally curious club has for some
time in existence in Chicago. 1t is
composed of young men, all of whom
bear the Christian name of Joseph, and
who have entered into a solemn compact
to woo no girls except those bearing the
Christian name of Mary. The club has
considerable membership and it is a
noteworthy fact that, so far, its rule has
never been broken.-EXchange

County Attorney Pratt, Sheriff John
Tierney, County Surveyor J. E. Hill

Kirsko was killed was within the
