The April term of the supreme judicial
court for Hancock county began yesterday
Judge William p. Whitehouse Is the
presid ng justice.
The opening prayer was made by Rev.
s. w. Sutton, of the Unitarian church.
The term bids fair to be an unusually
busy one. The Penobscot assault case
will come up, This, II will be remem.
bered, is the case 10 which Guy Grindie
assaulted and nearly killed Mrs. Eliza
J. Ltttlefield last October at her home In
Penobscot.
L. B. Dessy, of Bar Harbor, and o. F
Fellows, OF Bucksport, have been assigned
by court ss counsel for Grindle.
Grindle has teen in Augusta since Octo-
Der, under the observation of the author
tiles OF the insane asylum. He will be
brought to Ellsworth from Augusta next
week. The victim of the assault, Mrs.
Littiefield, Is a confirmed Invalid. Her
physician states that her condition is that
of a patient sufferer. She formerly was
a we'll, strong, robust woman, but she now
Is an invalid, suffering from the effects of
her brutal treatment. She is not able to
do any work, and has been out only two
or three times to ride, then only a short
distance.
Sne suffers a great deal OF pain from her
right arm, which is nearly useless; this
pain goes up into the muscles of her neck,
and at times is almost unbesrabie. She
has not been able to taste or smell since
the assault, and is deaf in her right ear.
She has little control over the move
ments OF her head; il she wishes to look
right or left she is required to move her
whole body
In short, she Is a chronic invalid, and
the pain she suffers at times is very severe.
There has been little or no improvement
in her condition for a number of months.

Montezuma. Jan. 22.-Deputy Sheriff
Edward Binegar. OF Poweshiek county,
arrived home yesterday from Fullerton,
Neb., having in custody Alvin Isenbeis,
a young man % years of age, who is
accused of having committed one OF
the most dastardly crimes in the an
nails of Poweshiek county. three years
ago. Isenbeis has been under indict-
ment all this time, but the officers have
never been able to locate him. Several
times has he been heard of. only to
disappear when the sheriff thought
he could lay his hands on him.
The arrest of Isenbeis recalls the re-
voting crime for which he will be
tried at the March term Of the district
court, before Judge Preston. Three
men nave already served penitentiary
sentences for completely in the affair.

boys, a man named Triptoe. and others,
took the girl to a lonely spot. where,

Isenbeis, it is claimed, committed the
assault, and the others, who were in
hiding, were frightened away. For
their connection with the crime the
Wolff brothers and one other ma were
sentenced to a term in the pe%nitentiary.
Isenbeis escaped and the other three
were not convicted. Sheriff Binegar
never expected to see his prisoner. but
a few days ago received word from

near that place. It was thought at
Fullerton that a reward Of $1,000 had

leaving the Office in charge OF his
daughter, who acted as his deputy. and
who received the small income which
the government pays for cancelled
stamps. For many years 1t has been
the custom for p~ostnasters here to re-
port all letters mailed on the trains
from Geneva among the cancellations,
thinking that they were entitled to this
business. There eens to have been q
misunderstanding about 1t. Miss Tfdd
says that an inspector told her that she
had a right to count these letters just
the same as tho cancelled, but a subse-
quent inspector said not and reported
the infraction of the department rules.
DR.. Tidd had some hot words with the
official and straightway fired in his
resignation. It is an unfortunate affair.
for DIR. Tidd bears O good character ana
the slight income to be derived from
the cancellation Of stamps on the few
letters mailed at the trains would not
have tempted him or his daughter to
stuff their reports had they not believed
they had a right to do so. Tidd, how
ever, has enemies In this town and this
version Of the difficulty will not be the

left in him calling despairingly for help.
At the Baker farm house not far dis

Apprehend Robbers.

Perry, Jan. 22.-The condition OF
Harry Pattee is not quite what his
physicians had hoped but still they
fear no immediate danger. He suffered
considerable pain today. The doctors
say 1t was not from the wound, how

the weakened condition of his system

The father OF the young man has

NOT DUE TO CLIMATE.
C.tarrh ls Found Everywhere.

Catarrh is at home anywhere and
everywhere. While more common IN
cold, changeable climates, it is by no
means confined to them, but is preva-
lent in every state and territory in the
union.
The common definition of catarrh is a
chronic cold in the head, which II long
neglected often destroys the sense OF
smell and hearing; but there are many
other forms of the disease, even more
obstinate and dangerous.
Catarrh OF the throat n bronchial
tubes as well as catarrh Of the omac
and liver are almost as common as ma
sal catarrh and generally more difficult
to cure.
Catarrh Is undoubtedly q blood de
sease and can only be successfully
eradicated by an internal treatment.
Sprays, washes and powders are use
less as far as reaching the real seat OF
the disease is concerned.
DIR. McIverney advises catarrh suf-
ferers to use a new preparation, sold by
druggists, called Stuart's Catarrh Tab
lets, because actual analysis has shown
these tablets to contain certain anti
optic qualities OF the highest value and
being an internal remedy, pleasant to
the taste, convenient and harmless. can
be used as freely as required. as well
Tor children as for adults.
An attorney and public speaker, who
had been a. catarrh sufferer for years
says:
.Every fall I would catch a cold
which would settle In my head and
throat and hang on all winter long and
eyery winter it seemed to get a little
worse. was continually clearing my
throat and my voice became effected to
such an extent as to interfere with my
public speaking.
81 tried troches and cheap cough
cures and sometimes got relief, but only
for q short time, until this winter when
I learned of the new catarrh cure,
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets, thru a news
paper advertisement. Two ffty-cent
boxes which / bought at my druggists,
cleared my head, and throat in fine
shape and to guard against a return of
my old trouble I keep a box OF the tab
lets on hand and whenever I catch a
little cold / AXE a tablet or two and
ward off any serious developments"
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets deserves to
head the list as a household remedy, to
check and break up coughs n colds.
because unlike many other catarrh and
cough cures these tablets contains no
ppiate. cocaine or any Injurious drug.

enthusiastic members, will soon WELD
the balance of power in the National

teen, amid many smokers and giggles,

house cat belonging to the c. w. T.

big fire and perhaps saved a loss Of life.
Mr.. Schmidt. like most all the residents
Of the city. Is hard pressed for fuel and
is burning green wood. He had placed
the cook stove oven full of wood to dry
out SO it would burn and went down
town. Mrs. Schmidt was employed in
part Of the house and was at
tracted to the kitchen by the peculiar
noises made by the cat, which seemed
to be in distress. Opening the door she
was met by a room full Of smoke and
flames. The wood ha1 ignited and had
all eady spread to the woodwork Of the
room and was gaining rapidly. The
damage to the Vol itself was COM
plete, but the dwelling. which is n OF
the largest In the city, was saved.
