Avenged Their Father.

Theodore Crater, chief engineer Of
the Somerset WOODEN Mills, at Rari-
tan, was assaulted as he was leaving
the MILL by William and Denton ELL
ingSw0rth, the sons of George Ellings-
worth, superintendent of the mill.
Crater was knocked down and kicked
about the head and face. While lying
on the ground he drew revolver and
shot both of his ASSISTANTS. William
Elingsworth received bullet in the
knee and Denton was shot through the
hand. The brothers continued to
pound Crater after they were shot.
Crater was afraid Of shooting some Of
the 500 mill operatives who gathered
about him during the assault and did
not fire at his assailants again. He
was rescued in badly battered condi-
ton with his head and face severely
cut. The Ellingsworth brothers say
they attacked Crater to avenge an as
sault which he. committed on their
aged father in the wooden mills 1t is
known that Superintendent Filings
worth, who had Just returned from a
trip to Europe, entered the engine room
of the mills and had quarrel with
Engineer Crater. 1t is alleged that
Crater elected Ellingsworth from the
room and struck him in the face.
When Ellingsworth's sons heard of
the assault on their father they threat
ened to have revenge. Crater heard CT
their threats that afternoon. He left
the mill and bought a revolver. The
brothers were waiting for him at the
mill gates at night and he was knocked
down before he had a chance to draw
his revolver. Crater was assisted to
Justice Kitchens court, where he
swore out w-rrant for the arrest Of
the brothers,

One of the greatest works of Henry
vorbruggen is the carved wood pulpit
of the grand parochial church at Brus-
sels The whole design is an allegor-
zeal scene. At the base are Adam and
Eve, life-size, being expelled by the
angel, while grim Death himself may
be seen lowering in the rear. The first
pair bear upon their shoulders hol-
low globe, the cavity being the place
where the preacher stands while deliv-
ering his sermons. From the globe
rises a tree sustaining a canopy,
which in turn supports two figures
one OF an angel and the other a female
representing Truth. Above all this are
the Virgin and the infant Jesus crush
ing the serpents head with a cross.

Aqua Pura.

The medical world of to-day has
gone over "hook, bob and sinker' to
water, cold and hot. 1t stands with
the profession almost as panacea. It
is a good sign; for it is indeed very
doubtful if there is any disease in
which the patient should not have cold
water. Oh, how babies often suffer
for cold water! A nursing baby is
given, no matter how thirsty, nothing
but milk, virtually solid food. The
little lips are dry and cracked, and
the little tongue so parched it can
scarcely nurse, and vet it has nothing
but milk to assuage it's craving thirst.
Try it yourself, mother, when you
have a fever, and we are sure that
ever after, when your darling is al
most dying with thirst, the teaspoon
and tumbler Of cold water will be in
constant use. Deny it milk and give
il plenty of cold water, and it has a
chance of speedy recovery in many in
fantile affections.
