A Box of Old Coins lJnearthed

A box of coins supposed to have been buried
by the Tories during the revolu tionary period
was recently unearthed by laborcrs working
on one of the eastern railroads. but the
coins were about two centuries old they
would probably have no more value to-day
than many of the remedies compounded for

therefore necessary, if you want to recover
your health, to be careful in the selection of a
medicine that will rest .pre the appetite. purify
the blood, and cure headache. indigestion.

try Hostetter's Stomach Bitters because it
will positively cure these diseases. Hundreds
of people have voluntarily testified to this
tact during the past fifty years.

WOOD ALCOHOL CASES SETTLED.

The celebrated wood alcohol cases, the
trial of which recently attracted consider
able attention in the Baltimore City
Courts, have all been compromised and
will not come u p for trial The suits were
docketed against John j. and William Z.
Gilbert, wholesale druggists. The litiga-
ton was instituted on behalf of persons,
who, it was claimed, had either been
blinded or lost their lives by drinking
Jamaica ginger and other preparations
i'll which wood alcohol had been used rs
basis instead Of grain alcohol.
The case that was tried was brought
by Dr. George A. Brehm. who said that
he had lost his eye sight from drinking
Jamaica ginger, which had been made in
this manner. The case lasted fourteen
days i'll the Superior Court, and resulted
in disagreement of the jury. A mass Of
contradictory evidence was adduced on
both sides as to the effect of wood alcohol
upon ihe human system. Witnesses for
the plaintiff asserted that wood alcohol
would blind and kill, and many authori-
ties were introduced by them to support
their statements. 1t was contcnded by
the defense that wood alcohol is no more
injurious than grain alcohol, and Mr..
William Z. Gilbert, one of the defendants,
drank two ounces in court to prove its
alleged harmlcssness.
These cases have 4 local interest from
the fact that it is alleged that large
quantity of Jamaica ginger is now being
sold in this. county, as stimulant in
place of liquor, and two or three deaths
have occurred under peculiar circum-
stances. The first physician to make
public the claim that wood alcohol would
damage the eye sight was DR.. Herbert
Harlan, formerly, of Churchville. He
went into the subject in an exhaustive
manner, which showed that there could
be SMALL question as toitsinjurious effects

COAL REGION MURDER SPIRIT.
OF,cials Say II Has Increased Since the
Goa lStrike.

TAMAorA. Pa. Sept 2.-Police authori-
ties in the various towns in the southern
part Of the anthracite regions said to-day
that the report that Molly Maguiresm
has been revived is ridiculous. and they
also said that secret organization far
more sanguinary is operating in the region
In support Of this assertion they point to
the fact that in the last eighteen months
twelve murders have been committed in
Schuylkill county. In ten Of these cases
the victims were Italians and Savonians
Not one of the murderers has yet been ap-
pretended although in every case their
identity is known
In Northumberland county close to 100
homicide cases have been reported among
the foreigners in about four years or
this number less than half dozen of the
assassins have been captured
Mysterious circumstances ALWAYS sur
round the crimes. A rule the bodies of
the victims are found IN some out Of the
wav place. Careful inquiries made during
the last year have brought the police to
the belief that a secret organization that
closely resembles the Italian Malta exists
among the foreigners
u don't want TO appear sensational, :"
sad veteran in the police service in the
anthracite region to-day, -but | would say
that the disturbances that marked the late
anthracite strike have had a d.trimsntaI |
effect upon the entire region The law
lessness to which ! refer II not confined o
foreigners alone. but extends to the English
speaking miners. Here in Schuylkill
county several Americans have been
murdered within the past year or two
and their sAyers have not been captured
Why wns this' Simply because the aut thori-
ties were afraid to act with men on all
sides Of them preaching socialism and
anarohism and radical unionism, II IL not
to b. greatly marvelsd at that the authori-
ties are afraid TO perform their duties
