THO-STEP AS A CURE
FOR SPRAINED ANKLE
Captain CowleS Finds 1t More Bene-
fetal Than Surgery.

Captain Cowles. the Presidents broth
er-in-law, has discovered a cure for
srrained ankle that will make him un
popular with the surgeons if it is as
widely adopted as he thinks it should be.
The captain recently slipped and gave
his ankle a severe wrench. Ii became
badly swollen, and so painful that he
could only walk with the aid OF a heavy
cane. All methods of treatment failed
and there was no sign OF improvement.
A few nights ago Captain Cowles at
tended an informal dance. There was a
scarcity of men, and he finally was pre-
vailed on to dance a two-step. AT the
first effort he fell fiat on the floor and
narrowly escaped taking his partner
down with him. But he was game, ant
stuck to it.
The longer the captain danced the less
fis ankle panied him, and when the
music stopped he found that he could
walk without the aid OF his stick and
without the slightest effort. His ankle
has not troubled him since. and he is
looking for friends with sprains to tell
them of his new cure

Waterbury Clergyman Takes Fall
Out OF Newspapers.

WATERBURY,, Conn, June 6.-Ever
hear of the Rev. Oscar Haywood? No.
That's strange. for the Rev. Oscar Hay
wood is of the type that defies news

Funny none of the papers CT this Sec
ton have thought it or him worth while,
and yet he is brave man. II you doubt

II do not hesitate at saying I am n
brave man." declares the reverend gen.
tleman, ANY more than hesitate to say
I'm a man of good health
And then, to show that he was really
brave. Mr. Haywood said he wished all
the gossips were across the ocean
''All who wish they were across the
ocean, he continued, raise their hand
kerchiefs.'
Several handkerchiefs f1uttered and an
odor of cologne permeated the audito-
rum of Polls Theater, where the SER
Non was preached.
This is sensational preaching, l

the first intimation his hearers had that
there was anything sensation in the
ChautauQua salute. Newspapers are
catering too much to mobs. They pry

| At this point Mr. Haywood gave de-
scription of the way in which women

It is safe to say that if the women

But it's the press that bothers the

possible rival, on account of the way II
| which 1t tends to sensationalism. Again
he saws:
"One of the most dangerous and worst
customs used in this country Is that o

DIR. HENDRICKS WIFE
SUES LAURA BIGGAR
Demands 100000 Damages Be-
cause Husband Deserted Her.

NEW YORK, June 6.-Laura Biggar,
New Jersey of conspiracy to seize the
estate of Henry Nj. Bennett. who. Miss
Biggar asserted, was her husband, while
Charles C. Hendrick and Henry Stanton,
jointly indicted with her. We're found
guilty, learned that another chapter in
the story of her troubles had begun
yesterday when an action for the alien
alton of DR.. Hendricks affections was
instituted against her by Mrs. Hen
drick The plaintiff asks for $780, 900
damages.
Mrs. Hendrick has also begun suit
against her husband for a limited di-
vorce, asking for alimony and counsel
fees. In her complaint against Miss
Biggar, Mrs. Hendrick makes charges
on which to seek an absolute divorce,
and the reason she has asked merely tor
separation is said to be that Miss Big
gar and Dr. Hendrick may not be able to
marry, if they should wish to do so.
Miss Biggar a short time ago settled
her claim against the Bennett estate for
large sum. She occupied her home, at
119 East Eighty third Street for short
time after this settlement, but since the
papers in the action against her were
| prepared it is said that it has been
impossible to obtain service of them
upon her.
In connection with Mrs. Hendricks ac-
tion against her husband, Judge Dickey
in the supreme court, in Brooklyn, has
| issued an order of arrest, 1t being alleged
that the doctor is likely to leave the
State, but as yet DR.. Hendrick has not
been found by the process servers.

NEWS OF RAILROADS
AND OF RAILROAD MEN
Peaches and Railroads.

The complaint made by the peach
growers OF Georgia that the railroads
are discriminating against them. and
the petition to the Interstate Commerce
Commission asking for relief, published
exclusively in The Times yesterday. are
regarded complaisantly by the local rep
board Air Line. the Atlantic Coast Line,
the Baltimore and Ohio, the Pennsyl-
vania. and all of the number OF small
Southern railroads involved.
It appears to be the belief of the off,
GERS that the petition will not result
in any action. as the Interstate Com
merce Commission has already decided
similar cases under the long and short
thaui clauses.
The growers complain that it costs
no more to ship fruit from Texas and
california to Eastern cities than it does
from Georgia. though the distance is in
some cases nearly double
The railroad men admit that this is
probably true. and assert that the roads
are acting legally because the COM
petition from Texas and California is
greater than that from Georgia Water
competition has also to be taken into
consideration. The commission will not
be able to take any action in the mat
ter until the railroads file their an
rwers. which they may not do for a
month or two.
