A PERFECT ALIBI
CONTINUED from page ~

which he now wears, and the book also
showed the day of the mans arrival
and the day ne went away. Mrs.
Thompson's story is also backed up by
the statement of John O'Sullivan of
Fayette Mills, who visited the house,
Aug. 20, and saw Douglass there, who
also accurately described the man and
readily recognized his photograph when
it was shown him.
The alibi for Douglass is further
strengthened by the testimony of Mr..
and Mrs. T. p. Secrecy, who live at
South Fayette. and who are the near
est neighbors of the Thompsons. They
had employed Douglass on the 14th
and 18th of August, and also knew that
he was al Thompson's place for several
days after living their house. He went
from their place directly to Thomp-
sons. / am convinced that no person
who had not seen and conversed with
Douglass for quite a long period of
time could have so thoroughly de-
scribed him as Mr.. and Mrs. Secrecy
did without having seen his photo
graph and without being well acquaint-
ed with his characteristics. The
Seereys did not know until | told them
that Douglass was in trouble; in fact,
they did not know where he was.
Il do not think there is any doubt
whatever about the alibi for Douglass
which these people have furnished be-
ing complete and positive. When l. ar
rived in Augusta, Friday afternoon, on
my return from South Fayette. l teie-
phoned County Attorney Matthews at
Berwick and told him that l had estab-
lished an alibi for Douglass and re-
Guested him to call in the deputy sher-
ifs who We're working on the state
ment furnished by Douglass at Cor
nish."
From the above statements it will
be seen that the Cornish murder mys-
terry is more mysterious than ever. The
red faced tramp" is still at large.
Douglass is probably laboring under a
deiusion and he may reasonably be
classed as a freak or as one whose
mind is weak and unstable. He appar-
emily does not know where he has been
during the past month. While under
examination by the officers he ap-
peared to be convinced in his own mind
that he was in Cornish on the day ot
the murder, and that he really did see
Miss Broad. and it was quite apparent
that he was satisfied that he had really
killed the woman. as his remark to
Deputy Miles would show. When be
ing questioned by that officer he said:
IF / really did commit that crime
when I wasn't in my right mind they
should not send me to prison for it,
should they?"
Trda-ttn,lv Douglass is very weak
minded and Is incapable Of giving any
testimony himself that can be relied
upon.

SHE HELPS
Wife Of j.. Pierpont Morgan Remem
bers Courageous Act.

Milwaukee. Wis, Nov. 14.-Louis
Gardner. a gymnast of Milwaukee, will
undergo an operation in London next
week AT the expense of Mrs. J. Pier
pcnt Morgan, in the hope of recovery
from an injury to his spine received
in q fall from q horizontal bar in the
English capital a year ago.
Two Il ago, while Gardner was
CT Broadway. New York, a runaway
team came dashing along with the car
riage of Mrs. j. Pierpont Morgan, in
which was a boy G years old. Gardner
ran out into the street. grabbed the
reins. and in less than a block brought
the team to a standstill. One of the
first to arrive upon the scene was Mrs
Morgan. She offered Gardner money
as a reward. and when he refused il
assured him that. If he was ever in
need, she would be his friend.
When the performer met with an &c.
cident Mrs. Morgan had him removed
from the hospital to private apart,
ments. and employed the best special
lists in England. After a years care
he began to recover from the paralysis
Now it is proposed that he shall under,
go an operation in the hope that he
may entirely recover from the effects
OF his fall.

WIFE HIM.
Exposed Democratic Pho to Deprive
Husband of Office.

East Liverpool. Ohio, Nov. l4.-Dr.
]. r. Jones is now seated in the city
council owing to the work OF his plucky
wife. DR.. Jones was the republican
candidate from the Sixth ward. The
democrats alleged fraudulent voting.
and forty-three votes were thrown out.
This insured the election of the demo
cratic candidate.
When Mrs. Jones heard Of the accu-
satiOns made against her husband she
made i visit to the city hall and in
v%estigated the waste basket in the Of
fee of the official who made the charge
of Illegal balloting. There she found
a copy Of a letter written by a prom
inent democratic leader, proving con
clusively that the charge against Jones
had been trumped up by democratic
leaders for the purpose of defeating
him.
Howard Wallace, the democratic
candidate, is thought to be entirely in
noccnt OF any connection with the al
fair. Hell act not only resulted in her
husbands v%indlcation. but healed an
estrangement which had kept the o Ii
pie apart for the past year.

a WEAK HEART

Gives the man who has it Ceaseless anxiety. Those
sudden suttoCating seizures which come upon hin al
the most unexpected times, seem to shake life to the
very foundation. II would be a great relief to such
sufferers to know that probably they were not suffer
ing from organic heart trouble but from Indigestion,
catarrh OF the stomach, OF some other stomach disease
involving the liver, and that they could be perfectly
cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery.
and a distressed feeling IN my stomach" writes Mr.. H. W.
Kinney, OF Knight, DOddridge Co., W. Va. II consulted a
doctor and ne SAID had organic heart trouble. He gave me
some medicine but II did ne no good. l then tried different
kinds OF patent medicines but they only helped me a little.
l got so bad ! could not walk any distance, was short Of breath
and my legs would get 50 weak ! could not stand. Consulted
another doctor and he said ! had Indigestion of the stomach and
bowels. ! doctored with him all summer and he only helped
me a little. ! then wrote asking you for advice and you advised
me to take Dr.. PierCes Golden Medical Discovery. I got five
bottles and commenced taking it Before the first bottle was
gone I tet 4 change. When the five bottles were gone l began
70 work. l had not worked any for a year before. l took III
all sixteen bottles and was cured"
DR.. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery is primarily
designed t. cure diseases of the stomach and other
organs OF digestion and nutrition. But because the
strength Of the heart, as the strength of every other
organ, depends on the strength of the stomach, which
provides ii food, it frequently happens that when the
weak stomach is made strong by "Golden Medical
Discovery" the weak heart is made strong also.
Beyond all this Golden Medical Discovery" con-
tains one of the most powerful and beneficial heart
toniCs known. The action of this medicine is benef-
cial in any case of heart disease, and it usually cures
the more familiar forms of what is popularity known as
"hcart trouble"
Accept no substitute for vGolden Medical Discov-
cry" There is nothing " Just as good" for diseases of
the stomach and blood.

Disease, has caused more misery and sui
fering and ruined more lives than all

made to share the humiliation and dis
grace OF this most loathsonIe and hateful
form of blood poison. Children inherit
it from parents, and thousands Of the
purest men and women lave beer on

handling the clothing o. Il infected

malady, or drink THE INNOCENT
