Grip Quickly Knocked out.

Some weeks ago during the severe
winter weather both my wife and my
self contracted severe colds which
speedily developed into the worst
KIND OF la grippe with all its miserable
symptoms" says j. S. Egleston of
Maple Landing, Iowa. "Knees and
joints aching, muscles sore, head
stopped up, eyes and nose running,
with alternate spells of chills and
fever. We began using Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy aiding the same with
dose OF Chamberlain Stomach and
Liver Tablets, and by its liberal use
soon completely knocked out the grip"
IL is good plan to take a dose Of
the Tablets when you have cold.
They promote a healthy action of the
bowels, liver and kidneys which is
always beneficial when the system is
congested by a cold or attack Of the
grip. For sale by A. II. Roberts

FOR ANNA VALENTINO.


Assemblyman Godfrey B. Matthews,
of the Twelfth Ward, jersey City, said
to-day that he would introduce next
Monday evening bill which, if it be-
comes a law, will save Anna Valentino,
Of Lodi. Bergen county, from the gal
lows. The blll reads as follows
An aet to amend an act entitled An

ion Of 1898 approved June Ia. ls9s

eral Assembly Of the State Of New Jer-
sey: D. After The passage of this act

sistent herewith are hereby repealed,
and this act shall take effect immediate
~"
In speaking of the bill Mr.. Matthews
said that he was opposed to the infic-
ton Of the death penalty upon a woman
for any crime.
Mr. Matthews is hopeful that the Leg

fore the Court of Pardons considers the
Valentino woman's case, He said that
il it becomes a law would relieve the
Court of Pardons from responsibility
and provide punishment for the
woman.

to the passage of his bill. The Sergeant

Mr. Hamill, Of Hudson, said the bill
was good so far as it went, but it went
only little way toward the solution of
the question of equal taxation. The bill
now pending no man in the State would
say guaranteed equal taxation. 1t was
a concession granted only to an insistent
public opinion and demand-a mere sop
to satisfy public opinion.
Mr.. Dufield objected to Mr. Hamill's
remarks because they were not germane

the act a mere sop did not refer to it,
the gentleman had right to his own

torious record as an alleged forger. was
arrested at the Pennsylvania House YES
terday afternoon, and his wife. Florence,
eighteen years old, was taken into GUS
tody at the Annex ferry house at the
foot Of Fulton street, Brooklyn. Both
were arrested on warrants charging them
with forgery. Mrs. Evans was on her
way to join her husband after having
unsuccessfu1Iy attempted to get rid Of
three checks purported to be signed by
William P. Springer, Of 40. 564 St
Marks avenue, Brooklyn, who is the
young wife's father Her husband was
arraigned in the First Criminal Court
this morning and held for further exam
ination next Tuesday.
The career of the young couple has
been meteoric. Eight months ago Flor
ence Springer was Brooklyn high
school girl about to graduate. One day
she failed to return home from school
At the same time Evans gave up his
job They turned up a few days later
at the home Of the young bride and ex-
hibited a marriage certificate. They were
forgiven and they went to live in a board
ing house. Young Evans secured en-
ployment with an uncle, i druggist Sew
eral months later young Mrs Evans had
a check drawn on a Nova Scotia bank
for $500 by the Sprague National Bank
The paying teller knew the young wom-
an and her father well. Mrs. Evans in
dorsed the check with her maiden name.
The paying teller knew nothing of her
marriage. A few days after he made the
discovery that he had been swindled. The
case was hushed up in court and the
money made good at the bank by some
one who did not wish his name to be-
come known. Some time afterward Mrs
Evans visited her husbands aunt, Mrs.
Lee Evans, Sr. During the visit, ac-
cording to the police, who say she adj
mits il, she pocketed $500 worth of jew
eiry, including a gold watch.
The young couple then dropped out Of
sight for time. Nothing would have
been said about the theftsof the jewelry
if Mr.. springer's name had not been
forged again and again. He got two
checks that he hadn't written He then
began to suspect where the checks We're
coming from, and did a BIT of detective
work. What he found out was too
much for him, and he swore ont war
rants for the arrest Of his daughter and
son-in-law. The couple were traced TO
this city and young Evans was cornered
in the Pennsylvania House by Detective
Sergeant Kelly. Of Brooklyn, and Detec-
tive Sergeant Frank Bennett, Of this
city. Bennett made the arrest. He
found Evans in apartments on the second
floor of the hotel, and when Evans was
cornered he attempted TO throw a couple

Apparently the Republicans are up a
tree on the proposition to create a Court
Of Taxation in the place of the State
Board of Taxation. BY many it is be-
lieved that the purpose of TIC abolitlyn
Of the present State Board is to punish
Charles G. Black for his determined fight
for the people in favor of eqnal taxation
Mr., Black is a member Of the State
Board. Fair-minded Republicans view
the matter il a light entirely different to
that in which the politicians look at it.
They fear it would prove boomerang
and that the Republican party and not
