Mr.. Donovan Thinks the Remedy Used by
Him with Such Remarkable Success
tho Best-Cured by Five Boxes.
"Men who have to do difficult and
dangerous work on electric lines at any
hour of day or night, can t afford to have
anything the matter with their health"
said Mr.. Donovan. You can imagine,
therefore, how much was alarmed one
winters day in 1902, when was seized
by a pain just behind my right hip that
made it difficult for me to walk home.
It was SO bad by the time I reached the
house that I was obliged to 60 straight
to bed"
q Did that relieve you ~
emo, the pain grew more severe and
kept extending downward along my leg.
sent. for physician, and he soon de-
cided that had sciatica. In a few days
the whole nerve was affected, and the
least movement brought on terrible
agony
did your condition improve under
the doctors treatment?"
"Quite the contrary. At thu end of
two months I WASH t a bit better, and at
times I feared that I would never be
able to leave my bed"
How did you get out again 2"
when was lying in bed, unable to
move and wasting away in flesh, a friend
visited me and told mo about the won
derful cures brought about by a great
blood and nerve remedy, DR.. Williams
Pink Pills. He strongly urged me to try
them, and I luckily had sense enough to
take his advice.
Did you mend quickly p
Yes. that was the astonishing thing.
1 noticed a slight improvement before I
had quite finished the first box Of the
pills, I could get out Of bed while ] was
on the third box, and was entirely
cured by the time had taken five boxes. /"

OF DEATH
OF CROKER

New York. May lS-Richard Crocker,
Jr., reached New York yesterday morning
with the body OF his brother. Herbert,
who was found dead on "A train at New
ton. Kas, last Friday morning.
Shortly after he arrived he received a
telegram from Charles j. Egan OF Kansas
City giving the details OF a private inves-
tigation he made OF Herbert Crocker's s
death. These facts Mr.. Crocker embodied
in a statement issued last night, in which
he said in part:
AT my request Mr.. Charles j. Egan
sergeant-at-arms OF the common council
at Kansas City. made an independent and
rigid investigation OF the movements OF
Herbert
According to his report Herbert was at
the Elm Ridge race track last Thursday
afternoon about o'clock and met there
Frank Kelly, chief trainer for Corrigan 5
racing stables. To Kelly Herbert, who
had met him in England. complained OF
being i'll lie looked sick
Kelley made an appointment 70 meet
Herbert at Cronin's Cafe at Fourth
street at 1880, and from there 10 go with
him TO the Union Station. Kelly did
not keep the appointment Herbert went
TO the cafe, accompanied by Wilson. the
from the Coates House. and the state
ment that he visited any resort OF a
questionable character is absolutely false

entered, but two buildings. Cronin 8

character with the tea houses of our
own Chinatown section. They were not
there more than 10 minutes. together with
other strangers who went in and out
Neither Herbert nor anyone else smoked
opium.
What may have caused that impress
sion is the fact that Herbert grew very
much worse. and Wilson had TO call
cab 10 take him to the depot. and pos
sibly the additional circumstances that
Herbert was unable 10 leave the cab with
out assistance, on account OF the in
creasing violence OF his malady.
wilson wishes IL clearly understood that
Herbert was not under the influence OF
liquor or any drug, but was a very sick
boy.
Wilson, OF course, did not know how
sick Herbert was. not knowing that he
had heart trouble. or he would not have
put him aboard the train. He did. how
ever, he says, call the attention OF the
trainmen to Herbert, saying that he was
not we'll and that they should look after
him"
The funeral. which will be private. will
be held today from the Church of ST
1gnatius Loyola
Mrs. Crocker was so I'll tonight that II
