James Adams, Soldiers Home, Cal.
The majority of people labor under the
impression that an operation is necessary
in severe cases of piles or hem0rrh0id,s.
and are very skeptical regarding the
remedial virtues of any medicinal COM
pound. Testimony like the above should
certainly have a tendency to dispel this
impression, although it is odd that such
fallacy should prevail, and still more
odd that so many people should think an
operation affects a permanent cure.
whereas the contrary is more often the
case.
We advise all sufferers from this pain
full complaint to buy fifty cent package
of Pyramid Pile Cure at any drug store
and try it tonight
Those interested cannot be too strongly
urged to write Pyramid Drug Co.. Mar
shall, Mich, for their little book desclib-
ing the causes and cure of Piles, as il
contains valuable information. and is
sent free for the asking.

Metropole.
FINAL PATHETIC MESSAGE
His Last Efforts Devoted to
the Tark Of Shielding the
Woman He Loved
Who Is Frustrated
FINAL PATHETIC MESSAGE

A man who proved to be George S.
Evans a broker and promoter, of New
York walked into the Metropole Hotel,
No. 8 Exchange Place at 1870 o'clock
yesterday morning and calling for room
registered and retired. Shortly afterward
the report from revolver was heard in
room % to which he had been assigned.
A policeman was summoned. The door
was forced and Evans was found on the
bed with blood flowing from wound in
the right temple. He was dead when the
door was forced.
The following letter was found lying
nearby
Communicate with II. T. Andrews,
Esq, of No. 337 Belleville avenue, Bloom
field avenue. n. ]. Please take him aside.
My wife is there and he will lovingly
break the news to her"
Mrs. Evans was visiting her father II.
L. Adams, of Bloomfield, n. J., when she
received the news, which had arrived by
a messenger. Her husband had told her
he would spend yesterday with her and
as he did not appear she was watching
for him when the sad news reached her.
She saw the messenger arrive and all
though the father tried to keep the news
from her, she overheard it and tainted.
She was reported yesterday to be in a
serious condition.
In the pockets Of the suicide was
found receipt for a package which he

The American Fuel Corporation went out
of business two months ago. Evans, it is
understood, suffered heavy financial loss.
He gave up his handsome home in New
York City and almost month ago his
wife went to the home of her father in
Bloomfield to spend the Christmas holi-
days.

IS He THE MAN !?


Patrolman Nugent at 1920 o'clock this
morning saw an Italian with a bundle
about to board a ferry boat for New
York at the Penpsylvania ferry. He
asked the Italian what he had in the
bundle. The man was about to show
fight when Nugent touched the mans
hip pocket and felt gun. The italian
said in fair English:-
s'Hold on; I'll take that OUT
mo you don't,' said Nugent. .'I'll re-
lieve you of that weapon.
Nugent arrested the man on charge
of carrying concealed weapons and of
being a disorderly person. When the
bundle was examined in it was found a
blood stained shirt. Besides the revolver
found on him was also a blood-stained
knife. The man appeared to be very ner-
vous.
This morning Chief Murphy received a
short typewriter letter from the Philadel-
phia police asking the police of this city
to look out for man wanted for the MUIR
der of John Mulholland, a watchman,
who was found dead Sunday, having been
shot. The letter contained no description
Of the man wanted, as the Philadelphia
police do not know who killed Mulhol-
land.
The man arrested by Nugent gave his
name as Louis Cabinellio, of No. 800
South street, Philadelphia. He was ar
raigned in the First Criminal Court this
morning and the case was lad over until
tomorrow. Meanwhile Cabinellio is held.
He is twenty-five years old.

fashioned idea of a genuine Christmas OBJ
servance could Snd no fault with the
storm of Sunday and of the white blank
ct of snow that mantled the earth here
abouts yesterday when the real festiv-

city's population Christmas, falling on
Sunday, was observed as Christmas
should be, a religious feast. While in
thousands of homes there was sedate
peace and happiness among children and
their parents, the lobbies of two criminal
courts yesterday showed that not much
happiness, but rather misery prevailed
in quite number of homes where the
Sunday was spent as one of undue jolli-
fcation.
Despite the storm Of Sunday the
churches were well filed with devout
worshippers, and the day in general was
passed as one of the quiatest of the year.
Tie musical programmes were fine. 1t

sounds of toy musical instruments that

Yesterday the local theftres were
crowded at both matinee and night per-
formances with well-fed, clothed and CON
tented people. There are numerous pro-
grammes of amusement for the entire
week and these are arranged on a scale
that viii permit a goodly portion Of the
city's population TO enjoy many, many
moments Of enjoyment with the prospect
Of a glorious New Year celebration to
look forward to.
