HINDU TWINS Cur AsUNDER.-An
operation was performed at the Rous'
seau Hospital, Paris, yeit srday after
noon for the purpose OF separating the
so-cslled Sismese twins, Bodica and
Doodics, who are VITA the BsrDum cir
Gus. The operation, which was per-
formed by DR.. DOyeD, occupied twenty
minutes.
10 cutting the membrane connecting
their bodies three srteries were sever =
ed, and blood to the amount OF from
thirty to forty grsmmes was lost.
There is little hope for the recovery OF
ether Of the twins who are Hindus,
not Siamese.
The girls were suffering from tuber-
culosis, aud the operation was decided
upon 10 the hope of giving them q
stronger chance for life. The signs
seemed to point to the absence of blood
commu mic ition in the connecting liga-
meut, but, as stt It'd, three large

ANOTHER MURDER MY 5TERY.
A mysterious murder resembling in
some of it's fet Tres the noted Durrsnt
case is puzzliug the police depart Deut
of San francisco. The body OF Nora
Fuller, a I6 yesr-old girl who dissp-
pesred from her home on January IL,
was found lyiog on bed In an up
stairs back room OF an uufurnished
house on Suit ID street 81 tlrdsy after
noon, Her clothing had been remov-
ed. The girl bad been dead some
tine, as decomposition had set 10.
There was nothing in the house to iu-
dicate the means used to take her life,
but the posture of the body and it's
condition, together with the disorder Of
the room, iodlcsted that the girl had
been murdered.
An AZ t)psy sclosed that death was
net due t) natural causes. All the
organs OF the body are in a normal
condition. The general leory Is that
toe girl was either straugled or
poisoned On both sides of t1e neck
are discolors ons that may have been
made by fUger tips. The city chemi'
is examining the stomach for evidence
OF poison.
Nora Fuller left home January II,
and met man known as John BeDn' +,

girl to take care of child. She mt t
Bennett at q restaurant, and all know
ledge OF her movements after that time
is lost. On January s the house 10
which the body OF the girl WAS found
was rented by mau giving the name
OF 9. B. Hawkins. The general descrip
ii IDS oil Bennett and Hawkins tally, and
is is thought that the two names we're
aliases OF the same man.

to have been 35 or 40 years old, about
six feet 10 heipbt aud weighing about
IT'S pounds. Each wore a browuish red
mustache. Bennett wore clerical clothes
aud claimed TO have studied for the
ministry. The police are working on
the theory that Hawkins and Bennett
are the same man.
A possible met We for the murder lie
found 10 1e suggestion that the mur'
derer either qusrrelled WITH tle girl or

The mistake which commonly opens the
way for an attack by disease is neglect
Of the symptoms Of stomach trouble.
When eating is followed by undue full
ness, belchings, sour or bitter risings,
ETC., disease is attacking the stomach.
The best way to frustrate such an at
tack is to use DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. It cures diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition, and makes the body
strong and healthy.

stratton, Millionaire Mine owner.

Winfield Scott Stratton. 81, the million
aire mine owner. died Sunday night in
Colorado Springs. The story of his long
struggle with poverty and of his final
rise to affluence reads like a page from a
novel. He was born in Jacksonville,
Ind and went from there to Colorado in
1872. For q years he searched without
success for a gold mine. Several times
he worked until he had saved $1,000 to
50. 900. and would then start out on what
looked like a fruitless quest for the yell
low metal. In 1891, at Cripple Creek,
Colo. he accidentally picked up some
rich float on what became the Lone
Star claim. owned by Dick Houston. the
Indian scout, and father of Cripple
Creek" The sample assayed $500 to the
ton, and Stratton located a claim and
opened on July 4th what he called the
Independence mine. which eventually de-
veloped into the richest mine in Ameri
ca. 1t was sold in 1898 for $4,000, 900
the property. In recent years Stratton
had bought many other large mines, and
his wealth at the time of his death was
rated at $25,0OO,000. Stratton will long
be remembered for his consideration for
his old acquaintance and friends. After
he became a man of great wealth. he
sought them out and gave them employ
ment in positions of trust.
