BRIGHT FOR MOLINEUx.
Friends of the Accused Man
Find Much Encouragement.

New York, Nov. 1.-THE eross-exami-
nation of Roland b. Molineux by As
sistant District Attorney Osborne which
was resumed at the opening of court
today, was finished within few min
utes after its resumption. Mr.. Osborne's
first question today was:
Did not Mr. Barnet pay your wife
attention."
Not at ALL was the. reply.
| Did you not SO testify at the in
quest2"
s.Monlieux's reply to this was that Bar
net had paid attention to Miss Cheese
borough in the spring and autumn of
1898, before she became Mrs Molineux
The defendant was in the best of hu-
NOR. When Mr.. Osborne asked him if
| he gave his wife an engagement ring at
the time of his engagement, and his an
swer was not TO the prosecutors salts
| faction, he said sn1ilingly:
L can tell you better than you can
drag it out of me-"
7 don't wish to drag it out of you,'
said Mr.. Osborne.
Molineux then said he bought an en-
gagement ring on November 49, 1898.
Yesterday he testified that he and Miss
Cheseborough became engaged in Sep
TENDER, 1898.
At Christmas, 1897, he gave her a
| .Mizpah' ring and when he became en-
gagged in september. 1895, he wished to
buy her an engagement ring, but did
not do SO until November.
A letter to Miss Sadie Shelter. in
which Molineux spoke of his engage
ment and forthcoming marriage as a
romance and said also that it was
sudden, was then identified and admit
| ted in evidence.
Mr.. Osborne ceased his examination
rather abruptly after several questions
as to the prisoners connection with var
ious medical associations. AS Molineux
resumed his seat behind his lawyers the
Rev. Lindsay Parker of Brooklyn shook
| hands with BIN and his father Gen.
Molineux, patter him affectionately on
the shoulder and said: Good boy"
/ Mr.. Black called Max Gumpel, a hand
writing expert, as his first witness after
Molineux- Mr. Gumpel told of his quail
| ificatiOns as an expert. He said he had
studied handwriting more than 80 years
and had testified in many important
cases. among others the Becker forgery
the Sharon will case, the Sarah Althea
| Hill controversy in California and the
Rice will case in New York. He decIar-
ed that the conceded and disputed writ
ings were not written by the same
hand. Mr.. Gumoei said 1t was his be-
! lief that the address on the poison pack
age was in the natural hand of the
writer and that its cramped appearance
was due to its having been written af-
ter the package was made up.

SHOT IN COURT BY MOTHER
Bemoans Fact Bullet Only Wounded
Man Who Assaulted Her Daughter.

Scranton, Nov. Thomas F. Downes
almost met death at the hands of an en-
ragged mother last evening when having
hearing in Alderman Ruddy's court for
assaulting Hannah Kenealey, II years old.
When evidence was being given by the
girl her parents showed signs of uncon-
trollable anger. Suddenly the mother
drew a revolver and fired the ball passing
through Downes' arm. So close was the
woman to him that the powder burned
through his coat sleeve. Policemen and
spectators jumped toward the woman,
while the girls father pounced on Downes,
saying he would kill him. The accused
man and the parents were locked up. The
mother tearfu1ly bemoans the fact that
the bullet missed Downes' heart.

Most people think the success of Pc
runa depends upon the use of advertise
ments. Undoubtedly the advertisements
help some. But by far the great
est number of people who hear of Pc
runa have their attention called to it by
a friend.
Some one gets cured of chronic ca
tarrh by Peruna. After he is certain of
his cure, he is sure to recommend it to
his friends. Friend recommends it to
friend and the news spreads from
tongue, to tongue.
All the advertisements in the world
could not make Peruna as popular as
tits. Peruna cures. That is the rea-
son people like it. Peruna cures a
very stubborn disease. That is why
every one recommends it. Peruna
cures chronic catarrh after ali other
remedies FAIL which explains why

BIG FOOTBALL GAME.
Michigan and Wisconsin Are in
Contest at Chicago.

Chicago, Nov. IA football game ac-
cepted as the western championship con-
test began at 2;30 this afternoon when
the elevens of the University of Michigan
and the University of Wisconsin lined up
against each other on Marshall field.
The grand stands, the extra circus
bIeaehers imported for the occasion and
nearly every inch of standing room was
occupied when the game began. In the
crowd were close TO 1000 ''rooters'' from
Madison and an equal number from Ann
Arbor The prediction of rain seemed to
have little effect on the attendance,
which was estimated at between 10000 and
10000 people. While many critics were in
clined to allow Wisconsin a shade the bet
ter of the argument on paper" the fore
noon betting was largely seven to five,
Michigan giving the odds.
Both teams seemed confident, Michigan
too much so, according to Coach vest.

|AKsntucky Man Who Has Held, ONCE

a Ksntucky Man Who Has Held, 0flce
for 66 Consecutive Years.
Richard White OF Kentucky Is the
3ldest clerk in the executive depart
nent in Washington, according to ..
correspondent Of the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. With the exception Of q post
master In New York state, who has
held his Office for "A, consecutive years.
White Is believed to be the oldest man
In point Of service, as we'll as in years.
in the federal employ. He was ap
pointed in 1886. and therefore has
spent &C years In the service of the
government. He vas a personal friend
Of Henry Clay, and the letter Of Mr.
Clay to President Andrew jackson
recommending the appointment of
my dear friend, Richard White. is on
file In the treasury department.
Mr.. White was born in 1914. ana
thus has passed the Biblical term Of
human life by IS years. In addition
to his record Of. long continuous serv-
ice, he holds another record that is
without parallel. Nearly every goy-
eminent clerk takes the full 30-day
annual leave Of yabsence authorized by
law, and the majority Of them also
take advantage, of the S0-days sick
leave in each year. In all.fhis expert
ence Mr.. White has never e1ceededs10
days in his absence from thesdepart-
ment in any one year. Throughout his
remarkable career he hasf been em-
ployed in the office where the accounts
OF the postof1ce department are au-
dited. He was. appointed at q salary
Of $640 a year. For a brief time he
drew $1,000 a year, but five years ago.
because of growing feebleness, he was
reduced to $40. I.
Auditor Castle, in whose department
Mr.. White Is employed; say the vet
.eran does his work to the satisfaction
Of his chiefs in spite OF his great age.
While no civil pension list is main
tanned by Uncle Sam, it Is safe to say
that Richard White will be assured Of
remaining on the government pay roll
IS long as he lives. .g,waeisss
