VICIOUS BUT NO MURDERER.
The Father of Hooper Young Thinks His Son a
Seape Goat
(By the Associated Press.

Paris Sept. ga representative of the
Associated Press has interviewed John
w. Young, father of William Hooper
Young. is charged with the murder in
New York of Anne Nielsen Pulitzer, on
the Developments in the case against his
son. Mr.. Young said:
Il am now convinced, from what has
been published and my own cable advices
that my son is innocent, and l shall do
the utmost in my power to help him,
while if / thought him guilty of such a
horrible crime, l would not move my
hand to save him from Justice.
He is wayward, but he never had a
criminal tendency. The only explana
ton in my mind, which can connect him
with this crime, is that he fell under the
influence of some designing person who
perpetrated the murder, and through
whom my son acquired a guilty knowl-
edge of the crime, or possibly became an
accessory after the fact.
THE boy is not insane, but his mental
strength has been undermined by vicious
habits into which he fell while young.
1.-THE dispatches say that a suit of my
sons clothes was found in the trunk
with the murdered womans clothing;
this is in his favor. for the perpetrator
of crime would never convict himself
in such an obvious way. This was done
by the real murderer, who is using my
son as a screen.
Il wish to say that my son is not
member of the Mormon church. nor has
he been connected with it for many
years We have been estranged for fifteen
years. l helped him frequently through
my other son. but have not seen him, be-
cause of his waywardness and his vicious
habits, to which his unfortunate failings
are due.
ut was without my knowledge and
consent that my son was living in my
apartments during my absence

THE STRENUOUS LIFE.
A Great Strain.

No one disputes the fact that we are

rush from morning until night. and
competition is so fierce that the strug-

worn out. Women. too, even wh'n sur
rounded by every comfort, become
infected by the common spirit, and what
with their clubs and many social duties.
have no time to give thought to their
physical ll-being, until they are sud
denly brought to a sharp realization of
the fact that nothing in their lives is so
important as attention to correct, or rat
ional living. 1t may surprise the readers
to learn that women are more prone to
piles than mon, and in most cases. be-
cause II is difficult to impress upon them
the Importance of regular movements of
the bowels; irregularity means straining
at stool, and straining means piles, with
the certainty (under the usual methods or

DDS is meant the application of salves
and lotions, or las last resort surgi-
cal operation. If there is a complaint
which entails more distress and suffer

hemorThoids, it is not known to the
writer; fortunately however, these are
learning that there is remedy that
effectually cures all forms of piles; 1t IS
known as the Pyramid Pile Cure, is in
srppository form, is applied directly to
the parts, and does its work quickly and
painlcssly; it is sold by druggists for
fifty cents package, or will be mailed by
the makers to any address, upon receipt
of price. Mrs. John H. Castona, 2942
Arch St. Chicago, says: Il must write
you that l was cured of very aggravat-
ing case of itching and bleeding piles by
the use of the great remedy Pyramid Pile

Demurrer by Miss Taylor's Counsel.
(By the Associated Press

Washington, Sept. 26.-Counsel for Miss
Rebecca j. Taylor, who was dismissed
recently from the War Department as
result of her published criticisms OF the
administrations policy in the Philippines,
today filed demurrer to Secretary Roots
answer to her petition for mandamus to
compel the Secretary to restore her to a
clerkship. She alleges that her removal
was without just cause or authority of
law. that it was because of her political
opinions and that clerk has vested
rights to the office until removed by the
proper authorities acting within the range
of their authority which she disputes in
this case. Her demurrer contends that
no head of an executive department is
empowered to remove a subordinate in
violation of the laws of Congress or the
rules of the President.

Foreign Office has not yet acted on Sec
rotary Hays note in regard to the Rou-

Russia intends to leave the initiative to
the other signatories. as the question is
regarded as an internal affair of Rou-

inclined to insist on the performance of
