Trial on Murder Charge Results In
Verdict of Manslauuhter

Trial on Murder Charge Results In
Verdict of MansIauahter.
Duluth, May 24.-Frank Lenich and
Frank Longer, the two men accused
of the murder of Peter kracovitch at
Eveleth, Easter Sunday night, were
convicted of manslaughter in the first
degree. The murder was the outcome
of quarrel in which the victim was
endeavoring to act as peacemaker as
near as could be learned through the
testimony. Longer and Lenich and
others were fighting when kracovitch
tried to stop them. The state con-
tended that Lenich welded the knife
with which the fatal blow was dealt,
and that Longer was equally guilty as
an accomplice. Twenty years impris-
onment is the maximum penalty for
manslaughter in the first degree.

ATRUE APPETIZER AND TONIC.

MONA WILL MAKE you FEEL HUNGRY
AND HEARTY, AND GIVE STRENGTH
AND VITALITY.
Ask any friend who looks thin, pale and
out of health how many meals he or she
eats day, and the chances are that the
answer will be mot over two, and l
don't feel hungry then" The plump,
rosy, and robust eat three square meals
daily, and their perfect health is due to
q strong stomach and digestive system,
as such a system takes out OF the 1000
all those elements that make pure blood,
and give nourishment and vitality to the
body.
The one appetizer and tonic that
should be taken is Mi-o-na, the only
agent known that will strength the stom-
ach and digestive system, and put them
in such perfect working order that they
will digest easily and naturally all the
food that is eaten, and send you to the
table positively hungry for the next meal.
Without strong stomach digestion
will be poor, the blood impure, and
serious liver and kidney troubles result,
causing headaches, backaches, spots be-
fore the eyes, dizziness, sleeplessness,
nervousness, irritableness, furred
tongue and bad breath, all of which can
be readily overcome by the use of Mi.o-na,
(costs but SOC. box), as it goes right to
the foundation of perfect health, the
stomach.
Scores of leading people in this State,
including editors, ministers, bankers,
and their families, gladly testify to the
tonic, strengthening and health-giving
effects of Mona. Furthermore, F. A.
Shurtleff & Co., one of the most reliable
drug firms in this section, sell Mi-o-na
under guarantee to refund the money
If it does not produce satisfactory results.

Special Corporation Meeting.

A special meeting of the South Paris
Village Corporation has been called on
Tuesday, April IL, at 1880 p. NJ. The
objects named in the warrant are to pro-
side for the care of the parks, matter
which was accidentally omitted at the
annual meeting; to see what sum OF
money the corporation will raise for the
benefit of Paris Public Library; and to
see if the corporation will vote to accept
the act passed by the legislature per-
hitting the establishment of system OF
municipal lighting. This act is in its
general terms familiar to every one, and
the full text of it was published in the
last Democrat Before it can become
effective it must be accepted by ma
jority of the voters present at meeting
of voters called for the purpose. Such
acceptance merely gives the act full
legal effect, and does not bind the cor
poration to any definite action or e1-
penditure in carrying out it's provisions.
Further objects of the meeting are to
see if the corporation will vote to pur.
chase 500 feet of new hose and raise
money to pay for it. and "To see what
action the corporation will take in rela.
ton to the adoption of bylaws to regu-
late the use of bicycles in the streets and
ON the sidewalks within the limits OF the
corporation; and also for establishing
police regulations therein; or to revise
and amend the present bylaws"

New Trial In Rovinsky Cases.

A rescript was last week handed down
by the law court in the two cases OF
Joseph Rovinsky vs.. the Northern As
surance Co. and same VS.. Fire Insurance
Co. of Philadelphia County. These two
cases were tried together in October,
1903, and aroused much interest in those
who heard the trial. The actions were
brought to recover the insurance on
personal property in house occupied by
Rovinsky at Rumford Falls, which was
damaged by fire. The schedule furnish
ed by Rovinsky in his proof OF loss in
cluded over $1,000 worth of property, in
GLIDING furs and other clothing to the
amount of S9T3.OO hanging in the dining
room closet which was against the
chimney and in the centre of the fire.
The defence was made on the ground of
fraud on the part of the plaintiff. Hon.
John P. Swasey was counsel for plaintiff,
and Hon. Leslie c. Cornish of Augusta
for defence.
Several days were occupied with the
trial, and verdict was returned for the
plaintiff for the full amount of the
policies, aggregating in the two cases
Sl579.5O. This verdict is set aside and a
new trial granted. The rescript, which
is by Judge Whitehouse, is quite long
containing some 1900 words. Consider.
able of the testimony in behalf OF the
plaintiffs case is characterized as un
reasonable, improbable and incredible.
