SUICIDE OF CHILDREN.
German Scientist Making Study
of Complex Cues
ti0n.

Berlin, Sept. I9.-Professor Eulen-
berg, distinguished medical author
lily, has been engaged In studying
the question of suicide among school
children of both sexes. No fewer
than $50 cases OF suicide OF this kind
have occurred In Germany during the
period from 1855 to 1900.
Professor Eulenburg, who does not
appear to have formed a definite con-
clusion for himself. has opened up the
field for an interesting discussion as
to wheather the greater share of the
responsibility for these premature
deaths is to be ascribed to the home
with Its incalculsble influence and with
the unknown quantity of hereditary
tendencies, or the school, with the
native conservatism" which still
chsracterizes many educational meth
DDS In Germany.

WAS PATHETIC SCENE
When Armer Was Brought in
Court at Calhoun.
Held For The First Time His
Young Baby.---Large Crowd
Was Affected.

No more touching scene has, pre-.
haps ever occurred In Kentucky than
that which took place In the Circui,
court room at Calhoun Tuesday after
noon when w. w. Armer, the preach.
er who Is charged with the murder oil
his son, was brought into the court
room. haggard from long incarcera-
ton fatigued and covered with dus,
from the long drive from Owensboro to
Calhoun and the center of attraction
of curious crowd gathered about the
court house. Armer entered the court
room at S o'clock, handcuffed and In
charge of Sheriff Henry, OF Mclean
county.
AS the two walked up the aisle to-
ward the enclosed space around the
Judges stand, sob came from the
woman seated on the front bench
with three children around her and a
babe of few months In her arms.
Armer recognized his wife, and for
the first time since the com mission oil
his horrible deed, his apparent indif.
ference to circumstances disappeared
aud his self-control broke down COM
pletely.
Armer had never before beheld the
infant which his wife held In her
arms. 1t was born few days after
he was spirited away from Calhoun
and taken to Greensboro for safe
keeping. The child was laid in his
arms and, holding 1t 10 his breast, he
knelt on the court room floor. With
his wife and children In a half-circle
about him he began plaintive pray
er which continued for several min
utes. AS he invoked the blessing OF
Almighty God upon his family and
upon himself the crowd, notwith-
standing the fact that 1t was compos-
ed largely OF men who would gladly
see the preacher hanged, became af-
fected by the pathos of the scene.
Strong men trembled and sebbed.
The court officials ceased their work
and stood with bowed heads.

INTENDED ROBBERY.
Hartford Visited by a Band of
MarauderS---cited by Three
Young Ladies.

Last Saturday night at about eleven
o'clock the citizens OF Hartford::w were
summoned TO the re sldence ofMrs. Mary
Collins by the cries of help, murder,
robbery, etc. When the ladies had
sufficiently recovered from their fright
they told OF how some one had at
temempted TO gain entr 1uce to the
house by forcing the dining room
door aud later five marauders were
seen In the yard watching every
movement OF the young ladies', Misses
A nnie and Kittie Collins and Coda
Mosley, who were pacing their
trunks and grips preparatory for
their departure the next day, Miss
Annie and Miss Coda going to
Louisville and Miss Kittie to Indian
apolis.
1t Is supposed that these maranders
intended ROBBERY as there was consid
cradle money In the house at the
time. They were frightened away BY
the cries OF the ladies before any one
else reached the house and have not
been seen nor heard of since. 1t Is
however rumored that a gang OF
about the same lumber OF men were
seen on the street acting rather sus-
piciously short while before the,
were detected at Mrs. Collins resi-
dence and the rumor seems very plaus-
able and 1t may be true that they OF
some OF them had been In Hartford
during the afternoon of Saturday for
1t was then that most of the none,
was drawn from the bank by some
one of the young ladies.

J. IL. Hipplegate, Supt. of Public
Works, 81 West 9th St., Lexington, KY,
writes:
"I find that Peruna is an excellent
medicine especially for catarrhal affec-
tions and all diseases leading to con-
sumption, bronchial troubles or stomach
troubles. 1t also acts as a preventative
and keeps the system in healthy con-
dition so that it easily throws off dis
ease. 1t Is an excellent tonic and Q
great appetizer and as a large number
of those who have been using 1t speak
very highly of its curative powers, am
satisfied that my opinion of it is correct,
and that it is deserving Of high praise"
j. ii. Hipplegate.
Peruna is the remedy for catarrh. Al.
most everybody knows that by hearsay
and thousands know it by experience.
Catarrh in its various forms is rapidly
becoming a national curse. An I'M
doubted remedy has been discovered by
DIR. Hartman. This remedy has been
thoroughly tested during the past forty
years. Peruna cures catarrh in all
phases and stages. There is no remedy
that can be substituted.
If you do not derive prompt and salts
factory results from the use Of Peruna,
write at once to DR.. Hartman, giving a
full statement of your case, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable adj
vice gratis.

DOW|ES NEW TITLE.
First Apostle of the Christian
Catholic Church.
Wearing a Rich Robe and Miter,
He ProclaimS His
Ap0Stleship.

Chicago, Sept. 2o.-Wearing a rich
r. be and inter modelled after thote oil
an ancient Jewish high priest, John
Alexander Dowie has proclaimed him.
self John Alexander. First Apostle
of the Christian Catholic Church"
The announcement was made In
the tabernacle at Zion City, where T.
900 people had assembled.
DR.. Dowie referred to the robes In
assuming the Office. After quoting
scripture in support OF the claim he
had made to the title of frst apostle
he said: Il did not create the Office.
1t was created by the Lord. I didn't
create 1t any more than | designated
these robes. If you are In doubt as
to my authority to wear them. you
will find 1t In the twentieth chapter
Of Exodus, the pattern given BY God
to Moses when the high priestb God
was established.
DR.. Dowie wore long garment OF
heavy white satin. lined with white
silk. Over this was purple satin
robe, tringed with gilt, of knee length.
The "broidered coat" the richest iea-
ture of the costume, was Of white sat
in, EN- broidered with geometrical Pat
terms In purple and geld, the colors
OF the church.
The girdle was there with histori-
cal accuracy, but on the bresstplate
instead OF the twelve jewels prescrb
ed by the Jewish ritual was embroid-
cred a scarlet cross edged with gold.
Dowie's head dress consisted of a
white silk miter, or urban, orna-
mented with two purple bands.
White silk hose aud white canvas
shoes completed the costume.
THE Office of First APOSTLE Is per.
petusi," said Dowie after he had read
several long passages from scripture.
1T should have been continued.
Successor to the original twelve were
chosen to the number of nine 20 fill
