SPREE COST HIM $500.
Man Arrested with SIT 900 Has TO Share
With His Vile and Daughter.

In order to obtain his lib erty August
Wieder, the journeyman baker Of Gle East
Twelfth street. Manhattan, who was arrested
early on Tuesday morning in the negro
quarter at Marcy avenue and Lorimer
street, Villa msburg, with more than 81 900
in his possession, agreed yesterday in the
Lee avenue police court to give his wife
S., 900. The woman. with her fou rteen-
year-old daughter. Annie, lives in s~cantily
furnished rooms in a tenement house at
273 Fast Tenth street. Manhattan.
1t was alleged that Wieder at andoned his
family W years ago, taking with him
nearly s2I 900 which he inherited at the
death OF his father in Germa ny. They
were left in destitute condition. Frequently,
the police learned, Mrs, Wieder and her
daughter we're obliged to pick cinders
on ash dumps for fuel, and only for chart
tably inclined neighbors they might have
starved.
The police had Mrs. Wieder and her
daughter in the Lee avenue police court
Yesterday when Wieder was brought up.
He was d~umfounded when he was con-
fronted by his family. Mrs. Wieder was
inclined to prosecute him on a charge Of
abandonment, but as he was willing to
give her IS 900 she decided not to cause his
arrest. The woman nearly collapsed when
she received the money. She decided to
place it in a savings bank. Wieder was
fined $40 for being drunkt the day before.
He paid the fine and later got the balance
of his fortune.

What Do They Cure?

The above question is often asked COM
corning DR.. Pierce's two leading medi-
cines, "Golden Medical Discovery" and
oFavorite Prescription"
The answer is that wGolden Medical
Discovery is a most potent Alternative or
blood-puriier, and tonic or invigorator
and acts especially favorably in a cura-
tive way upon all the mucous lining sur
faces, as Of the nasal passages, throat,
bronchial tubes, stomach, bowels and
bladder, curing large per cent. OF catar-
rhal cases whether the disease affects the
nasal passages, the throat, larynx, bron-
CHA, stomach (aS catarrhal dyspepsia, },
bowels Gas mucous diarrhea), bladder,
uterus or other pelvic organs. Even in
the chronic or lucrative stages of these
affections, it is often successful in affect
ing cures.
The "Favorite Prescription is advised
tor the cure of one class of diSeases-those
peculiar weaknesses, arrangements and
Irregularities incident to women only. 1t
is a powerful yet gently acting invigorat-
ing tonic and nerVine. For weak worn
out, over-worked women-no matter what
has caused the breakdown, UFavorite
Prescription will be found most effective
in building up the strength, regulating
the womanly functions, subduing pain
and bringing about healthy, vigorous
condition of the whole system.
A book of particulars wraps each bottle
giving the formula of both medicines and
quoting what scores of eminent med
ical authors, whose works are consulted
by physicians of all the schools of practice
as guides in prescribing, say OF each in
gredient entering into these medicines.
The words of praise bestowed on the
several ingredients entering into Doctor
Pierce's medicines by such writer's should
have more weight than any amount of
non professional testimonials, because
such men are writing for the guidance of
their medical brethren and know whereof
they speak.
Both medicines are non-alcoholic, non
secret, and contain no harmful habit
forming drugs, being composed of glyceric
extracts of the roots of native, American
medicinal forest plants. They are both
sold by dealers in medicine. You can't
afford TO accept as substitute for one OF
these medicines of known composition,
any secret nostrum.

MORE APPALLING
THAN ANTICIPATED
Gravity of Situation at Jellico
Is Serious.
OUTSIDE AID is NECESSARY


sstance, the Mayor of JeIlico, Tenn.
Makes An Urgent Appeal For Aid
For the People of the Town.
Knoxville, Tenn, Sept. 24.-Mayors
Baird and, Stewart of Jellico have given
the Associated Press an urgent ap-
peal for aid for the people of the
town, which was practically ruined by
dynamite explosion last Friday
morning. The appeal reads:
'Jellico, Tenn, Sept. "a.
ITO the Public:
The gravity of the situation in Jel-
lico is more appalling than we at first
anticipated Saturday it was thought
that we would be able to cope with
the conditions that have arisen here
as a result of the terrible dynamite
explosion of last Friday morning. La
ter developments, however, reveal
that it will be necessary for outside
aid to be extended, in order to meet
the demand for immediate relief that
is now apparent. We at first decided
to decline offers of outside assistance
that have come to us from all parts
of the country but now, after further
and sober thought, we are appalled,
at the destruction that has been
caused and the suffering that has fol-
lowed in it's wake. Therefore in the
name of thes people of Jellico we de-
clare that contributions of money or
other material assistance will be
gratefully received.
"The principal distress exists as a
result of damages to property and
stocks of goods ana household effects
OF residents of the town in addition
to physical sufferings caused by in
Jurles resultant from the explosion
Many of the people in humber cir
cumstances have lost practically every
thing they possessed. Some will never
be able to re-establish themselves in
business or otherwise if outside aid
is not extended them A few hundred
dollars here and there will greatly aid
immediate distress and prevent men
tai and physical suffering in the flu
ture. 1t will put food in the mouths
and clothes on the backs of the suf-
ferers, as we'll as rebuilding the town
where total destruction has been suf-
fered and in repairing the very exten-
sive damage that is done in other sec
tions Few houses in the town es-
capped injury in some form If the
masses are made to depend on their
own resources for relief, they will
never recover. The substantial bust
ness men, while heavy losers, are not
in need of assistance to the extent
that those less fortunate should have.
The fact that question has been
raised as to the liability for the acci-
dent causes grave doubts as to wheth-
er the sufferers will be able to re-
cover any financial damages ~on ac-
count of the destruction accomplish
ed. Contributions may be sent to D.

In Fashions Hau11fs.

The lining counter Is bound to be
popular gathering place for those who
are, or would be, fashlonwise. Innings
are assuming an Importance in the new
fashions to which they have long been
n stranger. Time was when Innings were
very humble affairs indeed. They did not
show for anything In the finished frock,
and to get thrm as inexpensive as posi-
BILE was the aim of both dressmaker and
wearer alike.
But now we have changed all that. 1t
was one of Sarah Grand's heroines, was 1t
not, who, being the daughter of clergy
man, could not, with propriety, wear ex-
pensive clothes. Her gowns were all of
the plain and severe type, but the femi-
nine craving for beauty and richness was
gratifed In the Innings of her frocks.
The outside was Of necessity plain and
sober of coloring, but the Innings were of
rich silks, brocades that fairly cleaned
and glinted with color; her lingerie was
of the finest, and real laces and ribbons
galore were used lavishly to Its adorn-
ment.
Nowadays wellnigh every .well-dressed
woman equals Sarah Grands creation.
The Innings of the gown are recognized
as the foundation upon which 1t is built.
and a worthy frock must have a worthy
foundation.
The increased vogue of transparent-or,
at the most, semltransparent-fa for
dressy wear brings the Innings right into
the limelight of criticism. Taffetas have
been the standby of the dressmaker for
long, despite the fact that none but the
most expensive gave any wear at all.
Buying taffetas was largely a matter of
luck. You might get a good piece that
would wear fairly well, or you might not,
and somehow price did not seem always
to have its due effect upon the quality.
But the manufacturers have overcome
this difficulty, and now one can purchase
certain silks, such as orkeda, that bear
a guarantee In their very name. The
gown that is not silk lined is but little
thought Of, and certain 1t Is that the
dressmaker can turn out a better fitting
and better hanging gown over a silken
foundation than over cotton one. Where
such seems an extravaganza there are
some clever ways of clipping expenses
In other items of the frock, such as the
use of featherbones instead of expensive
and brittle whalebones; making a skirt
bone take the place of three or five silk
rufiles to make the hem stand out well,
and the Insertion of n princess haircloth
facing on the drop skirt. All of those lit
tie points viii make for much in the fn-
ished gown, are trends towards economy
