state a new trial in the case of Nan

pressed keen disappointment at the

Incidentally William Buttle had a
narrow escape. He was standing near
MCGOWAN when the first charge was
fired and one of the shot passed
through his coat. Beatty lived with
Smith After some trouble with the old
man this morning he telephoned to Nc
Gowan and asked him to come 10 the
yard at once. When MCGOWAN reached
the place he found the front gate
locked. He asked Smith to open it, but
the latter refused. Thereupon the
young man struck Smith through the

down, but Immediately arose and
walked away without a word. He

New York, Nov 26-After a respite

Volunteer Witnesses.

Those in charge of the peoples case
may strive when the trial is drawing TO
close TO discredit the testimony of the
numerous eye witnesses the defendants
counsel promise TO call to the stand.
Mr.. Rand asserts that some Of the wit
nesses before they went TO the office Of
Abraham Levy and volunteered their
services for Miss Patterson called on
him and declared that they had seen
the shooting and that the actress held
the weapon in her hand. AT that time
he says, the stories were considered hys-
terical. and the prosecution cast the Of
fer aside. Lately, however. so many
eye witnesses have come forth, saws
Mr.. Rand, that it became necessary to
take some steps to rebut their testimo-
ny. and the special detail of detectives
has been assigned to investigate the
stories of the witnesses as quickly as
their identity Is disclosed.
All the testimony thus far produced
has been leading Up TO what the prose-
cution declares was the motive for the
crime, and with the beginning of to-
days session it was expected that As
sistant District Attorney Rand would
begiIs TO unfold the cruciaHy important
feature of the case

Unremitting Search.

The prosecution has kept up an unre-
hitting search for Smith ever since he
disappeared. They charge that it was
Smith who purchased the revolver with
which Young was shot, and that he
would prove to be their strongest wit
ness if he could be found. Already
Smiths photograph has been intro
duced in the case and identified. and
the prosecution has promised that the
pawnbroker who sold the revolver will
also identify the photograph as that Of
the man who purchased the weapon.
Probably never before in the history
of murder trial in this city was there
organized by the district attorneys Of
flee what might well be called a flying
squadron of detectives. Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Rand has enlisted in his
service county detectives who are sta
toned at the entrance OF the court
room for no other purpose than TO ac-
cept at a moments notice an order TO
sally from the building and investigate
the character and standing of a new
witness for the defense

Chicago Woman Advocates Juvenile
 Clubs and Home Dancing Schools.
 Chicago Record-Herald.
 The organization of children's club in every neighborhood. the establish ment of dancing classes where the joy ous two-step and polka are taught in stead of the languid waltz. and behind every school a group of parents to study and consult with the teachers, was advocated by Mrs. W. D, Nc CIintock of the University of Chicago before the Chicago Woman's Club as a means of bringing the home and school in cooperation to secure a higher social standard for the child.
 Mrs. McClinton made a strong plea for the simple life for the child. She declared the parents of today took their children to theatres and "even the Thomas concerts" which are produced for mature minds, and the result was "the sophisticated American child. whom every one hates" She said the present-day children's parties were a bugbear, with their elaborate detail, which took away the freedom of the

AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.

A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any large restau- rant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old men at the tables; men whose ages run from sixty to eighty years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senile?
 Perhaps the spectacle is so common as to have escaped your observation or comment. but nevertheless 1t Is an ob- ject lesson which means something.
 If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating, you will observe that they are not munching bran crack CTS nor gingerly picking their way through a menu card of new fangled health foods; on the contrary they seem to prefer a juicy roast of beef a properly turned loin of mutton, and even the deadly broiled lobster is not altogether ignored.
 The. point of all this Is that a vigor- ous old age depends upon good diges- tfon and plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon bran crackers.
 There Is a certain class of food cranks who seem to believe that meat. coffee and many other good things are rank poisons, but these cadaverous sickly looking individuals are a walk ing COnQemHdtiOh OA tHSAA OWH tne0- ries. S
 The matter in nutshell is that if the stomach secretes the natural diges- tive juices in sufficient quantity, any wholesome food will be promptly d. gested; if the stomach does not do SO, and certain foods cause distress. one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all difficulty, be- cause they supply just what every weak stomach lacks, pepsin, hydro-chloric acid, diastase and nux.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels and in fact are nos strictly a medicine, as they act almost entirely upon the food eaten, digesting 1t thoroughly and thus giving the stomach a much needed rest and an ap- petite for the next meal.
 Of people who travel. nine out of ten use Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets, know ing them to be perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by experience that they are safeguard against indigestion in any form. and eating as they have to, at all hours and all kinds of food. the travelling public for years have pinned their faith to Stuart's Tablets.
 All druggists sell them at 50 cents for fulI-sized packages and any drug gist from Maine to California. if his | opinion were asked, will say that Stu | arts Dyspepsia Tablets is the most popular and successful remedy for any stomach trouble.
