prominent man in mining affairs of Dis

Among the qualities possessed by the
Yuruk hospitality Is no doubt promi-
nent Deprived by the very influence
of his adventurous life of all the fierce
instincts which characterize the Turco-
mans, restricted because of his occupa-
tons to the woods, the plains or the
mountains; constantly exposed to the
inclemency of the seasons, to dangers
and enemies of all kinds, the Yuruk
has conceived q generous and noble
idea of hospitality, and he practices 1t
with disinterestedness and pleasure.
His tent, whether in his presence or
absence, is always opened to the trav-
eler, and food and drink In abundance
are given him. The tents of the Yu-
ruks are square and made of a sort of
black wooden cloth.

DR.. Thompson, master of Trinity col
lege, Cambridge, was an exceedingly
cold and austere man, never taking
much notice of the undergraduates I'M
der his care. On one occasion a Trini-
ty man happened to be out walking
and was caught In a storm. He ran
across a field and took shelter beneath
q large tree. When he arrived there,
he found, to his horror, that Dr..
Thompson was beneath 1t, seeking pro-
lection from the rain. For some time
both stood silent, watching the clouds.
till at last the Undergraduate, growing
desperate, ventured to remark that he
thought 1t was clearing up little.

Ing upon the wretched youth. 'Nll COM
municatOns to the master of Trinity

During the American civil war there
was an assistant surgeon in the navy
six feet four inches high, who was
serving on board the Penobscot, which
was only five feet eight inches between
decks. The doctors bunk was scant
six feet in length, so that lie was I'M
comfortable even in lying down In
bad weather, on the blockade, when
the spray was breaking over the ship
the doctor was deprived even of the
comfort of uncoiling on deck. After
considering the matter thoroughly and
remembering that long letters to the
department were not always read and
not always considered, he wrote as
follows:
Hon. Gideon Wells, Secretary of the
Navy:
Sir-Length Of surgeon. feet 4; height
of wardroom. 5 feet S. Respectfully,
E, C. YER MULLEN,
Assistant Surgeon.
The department promptly dispatched
him until such time as more suitable
ship could be found for his assign
ment. "-ChicaEo News.

Worse Than Death
has been the su1erings OF
Mrs. Adam France
Of North St, Burlington.

Mrs. France has been gradually los
irg flesh her disease and great suffer
ing has baftled the skill of five physi-
clans, whose names she will gladly give
any one. The first physician she con-
suited said it was neuralgia of the
stomach and bowels and treated her
for the same. After eight months
suffering she was obliged to consult
another physician, who said her
trouble was caused from female weak
ness. The next two physicians that
she consulted nearly agreed that her
disease was liver complaint and ulcer
ated stomach but failed to give her
any relief The fifth said she was in
consumption and her LETT lung was
nearly gone and treated her for same,
she found no relief, but Mrs. France
is woman not to give up and believed
if she could find physician who
understood his business she could be
cured. Reading of the many cures
in the paper effected by Dr. Morrow Of
AZ Church street, Burlington, VT, on
February 9th. she went to his Dispen-
sary and in her turn was ushered into
his private Office. After telling the
doctor OF her suffering and what other
doctors had treated her for he smiling
ly said "The cause of your long suffer
ing is tapeworm and | can give you
some medicine that will relieve it in a
few hours. This was good news.
Mrs. France took the medicine home
and took it the next forenoon accord
ing to directions, done her days work
as usual and passed a monstrous tape
worm, head and all. as the doctor had
predicted.
This is the 2oth tape worm that DR..
Morrow has removed in the last nine
months. Mrs. France is over joyed
with the doctors treatment and says
she is glad that she has found physi-
clan that knows the difference between
neuralgia of the stomach, female dis
ease, consumption and tape worm.
Mrs. France will be pleased to answer
any questions in regard to her case
and this worm with others can be seen
at the doctors office any time on
office days Mondays, Wednesdays
and Saturdays. If you cannot call in
person, send for a question blank,

COUNTY COURT.

Wednesday morning the divorce casS
of Agnes Mabel Fuller vs. William f.
Fuller was taken up the causes alleged
being intolerable severity and desertion.
The divorce was at once granted on the
intolerable severity charge and the
petitioner was given leave to resume her
maiden name, Agnes Mabel Bowen.
Judge Bliss and Mr.. LaFleur appeared
for the woman and the husband made
no contest.
AT 10 o'clock DR.. Don A. Bisbee was
brought into court for sentence, his
counsel interposing no dilatory motion.
The respondent on June Is was pro-
nounced guilty of adultery; and DIR,
Bisbees' sentence was that he should be
confined at hard labor in the State prison
at Windsor for not more than three years
and not less than two years and six
months and pay the costs of prosecution.
When asked if he had anything to say
why sentence showed not be passed upon
him, DIR. Bsbee addressed the court at
some length He said that owing to
disease from which he had suffered
much pain for six years he had taken
large quantities of medicine and drugs,
so that at times he did not know what
he was doing, as might be seen from the
open way in which he had carried things
in this matter; that this affair had well
nigh ruined him financially, having
damaged him to the extent of $4,000 in
his business and the legal proceedings
costing him another $1,000; and that he
was now nearly blind having totally lost
the sight of one eye. The respondent
showed great emotion during his re-
marks. The Correspondent, Emma
Waterman, was admitted to bail Tues
day, Cyrus Harding of Townsend be-
coming her bondsman.
Just before the noon recess, Charles
Ash, convicted of adultery June 90 was
arraigned for sentence. Neither he nor
his attorney had anything to say in his
favor and he was sentenced to serve not
more than two years and nine months
nor less than two years and three months
at hard labor in the State prison at
Windsor.
William Bradley of Panton, who has
been in Jail for the past few weeks
charged with the crime of adultery was
brought into court and the evidence
against him not being very strong, was
admitted to bail on his own recognizance
in the sum of S400
The dockets had been cleared by noon
of pretty much everything in a condition
to be taken up and a recess was taken at
that hour to Friday morning at 9:4O
o'clock, when the Bristol bank case
against Scarborough was resumed.
