 Erooksids For Thirty Days.

There was no music in John Syn. mott when he faced Judge Burpee in the city court to answer to a charge of intOxication. All the melody with which he accosted people on North square yesterday was gone out of him. He was like a poet out of a job. or a bard with his harp out of tune. He hadn't word to say for himself ex- cept to request that he be sent to Brookside home instead of jail. This request was granted, he being commit ted for thirty days.

J. 0. Brainerd Going to Work on William Rocksfsller's Bix Estate.

Middletown, Aug 23.--J. O. Brain. erd, hunter and trapper who has lived in Haddam for a number of years, has been engaged by William Rockefeller, brother of John D., to exterminate the foxes and other small animals on his estate in the Adiron- dacks. Mir Brainerd is famous up and down the Connecticut valley as a trapper. and it seems that his fame has spread, for some weeks ago he was approached by stranger and asked if he would take contract to hunt foxes in the Adirondacks. He agreed and the papers were signed. his wages being fixed at modest sum. The stranger thereupon told him who he was to work for and Mir Brain erd then wished that he had put a higher figure on his services. The Rockefeller estate comprises 100000 acres and there is an abundance of game there. including deer and bears. Mir Branerd is to hunt only foxes. as they kill the game birds. He says that he is to receive S100 a month and expenses.

PALhIST, RUNAWAY GIRL
Scarf and Beads and $2.20, This
 Beats Hill Work She Says.

Hartford. Aug 23.-Princess Viola. the assistant to Queen Belle, the palm ist at Capital park, was pinched last night The Springfield police say she is a runaway girl. They say that i'm stead of being a princess she is merely Rose Granger, aged 16 years, the daughter of Peter Granger of that city, a mechanic and a plain American citi- zen.
 Miss Granger disappeared from her home in Springfield Sunday. Queen Belle. the .'gypsy fortune-teller." whose real name the police do not know. was in Springfield this spring at some resort there and the Granger girl became acquainted with her. Queen Belle wanted some good looking assistant to attract business from gay young rakes that are willing to give up a quarter to have girl hold their hands or from impressionable young women who really believe the sooth- savers are gypsies and know what they are talking about.
 Miss Granger. on her part. saw that tl.e business was .-asy to learn. that a ready wit was the most important part of it and that she could make more money at it than by standing behind a store counter ar working in a mill. so Sunday she came down here and ap- rrenticed herself to queen Belle. In order to be a real palmist she took the name Princess Viola.
 Monday the police here received word of the girls disappearance from Springfield Mrs Granger suspected that the girl might be with Queen Belle. since she had heard her daugh- ter speak of the woman. It was quick Iy found that some girl was here with ihe fortune-teller and last night Po- liceman Hurley. who does duty at Capitol park. arrested her She was dressed in gypsy costume and had lSt of beads around her neck and a scarf on her head She wore most of her togs when she pas brought to town o.i q ear and Iocke,I up.
 Miss Granger had nothing to say when arrested She said that she was making good money and showed s23D which she had already accumulated. She did not seem surprised at her ar- rtst. The police teIephoned to Spring field and the girls parents were noti- fed of the apprentice psImist's arrest Nr Granger said he would tc down ezrir this morning to get his daughter and take her home She did not claim. rs fo many runaway xirIa that she has not got good home.

Cuhan DiarrhOea.

U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what this
disease is, and that ordinary remedies
have little more effect than so much
water. Cuban diarrhOea is almost as
severe and dangerous as a mild attack OF
cholera. There is one remedy, however,
that can always be depended upon as
will be seen by the following GER
tificate from Mrs. Minnie Jacobs
of Houston, Texas; III hereby certify
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy cured my husband OF
A severe attack of Cuban diarrhoea,
which he brought home from Cuba. We
had several doctors but they did him no
good. One bottle of this remedy cured
him, as our neighbors will testify i
than God for so valuable medicine. "
