A GREAT DEED OF CHARITY.

A GREAT DEED OF CHARITY.
 The Mother SeigePs Syrup Co. recent ly performed a great deed of charity, although it was not designed as char ity, being nothing more nor less than an advertising scheme. It, however, re- suited in great good just the same. They gave away thousands of bottles of Mother Seigels Curative Syrup to those suffering from stomach Arrangements and diseases arising therefrom.
 It was so effective in curing those who used the remedy that they were loud in their praises of it and in con- sequence a large demand for the Syrup was at once created.
 Mother seigers Curative Syrup cre- ates an appetite, aids digestion and brings about a rapid increase in flesh and strength. Mother Seigels Syrup is now on sale at all drug stores.

 q have used Mother Seigel's Curative Syrup in England for years. I have always found it 8 great benefit for gen. eral use. Have often given doses of it to my friends and they all said it did them good. For constipation there is nothing better as it acts as a gentle laxative without gripping. A friend of mine who used it for Indigestion says nothing ever gave her so much relief, and it cured her. Having used it for years in England, am glad to find it in this country and cheerfully recom- mend it to all." Emily Leckenly, 22 Derby Avenue, New Haven, Ct, April 10, 1902. -s .t>E j , ..,5

BOYS BODY RECOVERED.
Prolonged Search ia West River
 Faneral ThIs Afternoon.

The body of young John Birmingham,
 who was drowned in West river Mon
 day, was recovered yesterday in most
 peculiar and interesting manner. Op-
 erations were in progress for several hours yesterday afternoon to find the
 body. and a large crowd Of people as- sembled on the Congress avenue bridge
 watching the proceedings. Sergeant
 McGann and Patrolman McQueeny, of
 the Howard avenue station, were using
 drag lines from the shore and several
 men were out in boats. Their labors
 for awhile seemed fruitless and it was
 decided to wait until the tide was low,
 when the task could be more readily
 accomplished.
 About this time MOTtZ Kopperl, of 30
 Lafayette place, came driving along,
 and, observing the concouTse. inquired
 the cause of so much excitement and
 interest. Upon being informed that the
 river was being dragged for a drowned
 body he said: You wait a minute un-
 til go home, and we'll find the body" He went home and returned with loaf
 of bread and three tallow candles. He
 placed the candles in the bread. lit them and launched the peculiar finder on the surface of the river. It went floating down the stream for about fifty feet, when all of a sudden it stopped and
 commenced eddying around minia- ture whirlpool.
 Kopperl, on seeing his searcher stop, said that that was the spot where the
 body would be found. Victor Jahnsen, of 54 Plymouth street, and Frederick Wallace accepted Kopperls prognosti-
 cation. not without feeling of much incredulity, but nevertheless with some hope of success. They dragged the spot and, sure enough, the body was there recovered.
 It appears that while Kopperi's meth cd was unicue there was a good deal of plain common sense attached to 1t. An object floating on narrow stream will certainly tarry where two currents meet, and it is also certain that an ob- ject being carried underneath the sur face by the tide will pause in it's jour- ney about the same place.
 After the body was recovered Medi- cal Examiner Bartlett was called and
 he gave permission to remove the body. It was given to the care of Cox & | Henze, the undertakers, and was later | removed to the residence of the boys l father, George Birmingham, Hedge street, from whence the funeral will take place this afternoon.
 The incidents relative to the boys | drowning were recorded in yesterdays l Courier.

TO Meet at the Pequot I1ouSe' NeW
 London, Friday Evening.
 Chairman Gates has called meeting of the Republican state central com mittee to be held next Friday evening at the Pequot house, New London. The meeting is called primarily to fix the date of the state convention. The con- vention will be held this year in Hart ford, according to the rule of alterna- tion.
 Another thing to be done is to select the temporary chairman of the conven- tion, and it has been the usage for some years past for the convention to choose as the permanent chairman whoever was selected by the committee for the temporary position. It was rumored yesterday that if his engagements per- init Senator Platt might be asked to preside. The convention will probably be held September Is and F.

NOVEL POINT OF LAW.

A novel and interesting legal ques- tion was raised yesterday by Attorney Maher, who appeared for James Mo- Namara, a saloon keeper at 343 Oak street. Attorney Maher asked for a continuance to ascertain the bearing of the new statute upon the case.
 He claimed that under the revised statutes Prosecuting Liquor Agent Niles is not entitled to his usual fee of $10 in each case, except when such cases reach the superior court. A continuance was granted to give him time to look up the law.

Mrs. William Wakeman of S9 Henry street called at the office of Assistant City Attorney Tyner yesterday and in quired regarding the possibility of hay ing warrant issued for the apprehen- sion of Mrs Dora A. Porter, who took her child Lottie from the home of Mrs. Wakeman. it's grandmother, Saturday and took the child to Middletown. MT. Tyner did not give a definite answer. It is very likely that the only recourse of the father and grandparents is a writ of habeas corpus.

 The legal eccentricities of Mrs. Mary
 Elizabeth Wright Smith of Bridgeport are responsible for still more trouble
 for her. Mrs. Smith gave Max Straus of this city q chattel mortgage in con- sideration of $150 loaned her. This was over year ago. Mir Straus endeavor- cd to collect the loan but failed. Then he brought suit and secured judgment for $192 and costs. Upon the order of Judge Howard J. Curtis of Bridgeport, Deputy Sheriff Doolan was authorized to sell at public auction sufficient of Mrs Smiths household effects to satis- fy the judgment
 Mrs. Smiths home in Westport was furnished with many heirlooms and highly prized antique furniture. A large crowd of curio seekers were on hand to pick up bargains, and they were l not disappointed. Handsome pieces of mahogany and rosewood furniture, | paintings by old masters, and carpets | of rich texture and design all went to | satisfy the mortgage. One after anoth-
