ANGRY BULL AND FIRE
Gives J. II. Berry Of Montville Lively
Experience.

Montville, Me, April 2S-J. Hanson Bcr'
ry. a prosperous and prominent farmer OIL
Montville is congratulating himself upon
his narrow escape from an angry bull and
the timely extnguishing of the flames IN
his barn, caused by his lantern being up
set in his encounter with the animal.
Shortly after Mr.. Berry and family had
retired. last Friday night he heard a
noise in the barn and hurriedly dressing
he took his lantern and proceeded to inves-
tigate He found his Jersey bull loose and
furiously butting an OK which was tled
up near him. Mr.. Berry grabbed for the
ring in the bulls nose but missing 1t. the
animal turned upon him. butting him into
a crib and breaking his lantern, which
Immediately set fire to the hay. Mr.. Ber-
nv endeaVored to crawl out of his per1lOuS
position, but it can only be conjectured
what would have resulted had not Mr..
Berrys son, hearing the noise, come to
the rescue.
The young man succeeded in getting hold
of the ring in the bulls nose and twisted
his head around in Stanchion in way
that held him. The fire in the meantime
had made considerable Roadway, lighting
up the barn SO that the work of securing
the bull could be easily carried on. The
young man then took off his coat and in a
few seconds had smothered the blaze.
The fact that the bull was dehorned
probably saved Mr.. Berry from serious IL
not fatal injuries. He is now somewhat
sore from the result of his experiences
but is able to be about.
Mr. Berry is one of MOntvlle's largest
and most successful farmers; he has a
fine herd of Jersey cows from which he
sells cream. He also deals in cattle. sheep,
horses and hogs and is considered well 10

Defend Her Home.

Further Investigation.

Boston. Mass, April 2S.-Holdng that
her action in defending herself and
family against a burly intruder into her
home at dead of night was entirely
justifiable. Judge Ely of the municipal
court. today, discharged Mrs. Isabella
Viola, who was arrested, Sunday, for
shooting Lieut.. Kelley of the fire de-
partment
Kelley, who had been in another part
of the house, went away leaving some
personal property behind him. He re-
turned to get it but, being under the in
fiuence of liquor, it is claimed. knocked
at the wrong door. When admittance
was refused. Kelley burst in the door
which was that of the apartment oc-
cupied by the Violas and attacked Mr..
Viola vino opposed him. Mrs. Viola
seeing that Kelley was overpowering
her husband. seized a revolver and shot

DEMANDED MONEY.
Being Refused, Jos. Simpson
Shot Leopold WertheImer. i.
Real Motive a Mystery, Though the
Man Demanded Money.
Probably Mentally Deranged-Had
Been Employed by Victim.

New York. April 2S.-Leopold Wer-
themer. wealthy dry goods mer-
chant, was shot three times at his home
in West 115th street, early today. He
was wounded in the chest, arm and
right side. and was taken to the j.
Hood Wright hospital In a serions con-
dition. Charged with the shooting the
police have arrested Joseph Simpson,
30 years old, of East 121st street, New
York. The injured man is 32 years old
and is a member of the firm of Aaron d
Wertheimer, dry goods merchants, who
recently were burned out at their
place of business in Sd avenue, Harlem.
Simpson. the police say, was employed
there as Waterman prior 10 the fire.
At the time of the fire two persons
were burned to death.
The motive for the shooting is mys-
terry both to the police and the Wer-
theimer family. Simpson refused to
make a statement. Since the fire, Mr..
Wertheimer has not been engaged in
business. The firm discharged it's en-
ployes. including Simpson, but he got
work as a motorman. A week ago he
lost that position. He called on Mr..
Wertheimer, yesterday afternoon, and
again, last night. The fanny think
that Simpson wanted money. Simp-
sons housekeeper said he had been
acting strangely lately.
Mr.. Wertheimer was not married. He
lived with his parents, brother and
married sister and they were in a
group about him at the door of their
apartment when the shooting occurred.
In response to a loud knock his brother
had opened the door as far as a chain
on the inside would permit. Hearing
talk the family gathered about the
partly opened door, the merchant
among them. He is said to have told
Simpson he must be crazy to call at
such time and it is said that quick as
a flash a revolver was drawn and
three shots fired. Simpson is then said
to have walked away, followed by the
wounded mans brother.
All Simpson would say was that Wer-
theimer owed him money for something
he had done and had refused to pay
him. Wertheimer denies this, but said
Simpson demanded money from him as
brother Mason.
Simpson was arraigned in court and
held without bail for examination
Thursday.

ACHING KIDNEYS.
Pfemonltory Symptom Of Serl-
Gus Trouble.
Use Of Remedies Containing
Alcohol is Suicidal.

Every year the demand has been for
a more effective kidney remedy
The public no longer has any patience
with so-called kidney remedies that. at
best. only possibly delay the progress Of
disease. The demand Is for remedy
that can point to men and women in
every neishborhood that IL has cured of
severe kidney disease.
The startling statement published re-
Gently by the newspapers throughout
the United States that DIR. Pcttingills
Kidney Wort Tablets have again and
again demonstrated their ability to
cure men and women OF Brights
disease and diabetes. is being daily
reasserted by physicians. IT is n fact.
and can be proved to the satisfaction of
any sufferer who will take the pains to
test the wonderful specific.
The signs of threatening kidney
trobule are pains in the loins and
regions of the kidneys and headaches:
there is often constipation. feeling OF
faintness. nausea, vomiting. and dis
tention of the stomach. If you have
any of these symptoms that alarm you.
if you experience heat in the region of
the kidneys. do not wait for worse
without delay.
John NJ. Ament. Lewis county. Tenn.
says: For 10 years have been afflicted
with pain in the back. the result of
diseased kidneys. / tried several REM
edies. from which l received very little
benefit. At last / gave kidney-Wor
Tablets trial. and received immediate
and lasting benefit from their use.
The general reading public knows
that alcohol in a kidney remedy Keeps
up the Inflammation. Liquid kidney
remedies. because of the alcohol they
necessarily contain, are never ordered
by physicians. Kidney-Wort Tablets
contain no alcohol.
Women of all ages who suffer from

feelings, exhaustion, nervousness and
general weakness. find In DIR. Pcttin-
gills Kidney-W Wort Tablets the true
health. strength, and happiness they so
