HOW TO SPEAK GERMAN.

Strange, but nevertheless true, you
or anyone else can learn to speak,
read and write the German language
absolutely free. For 90 days, in
every daily issue of the Pittsburg
Dispatch, a lesson in German will be
printed so simple that child with
ordinary education can master the
language. Parents who have child
rem not old enough now to study
them should cut out the lessons each
day and save them. If you save the
lessons all your children can learn
German. Since the first Of last
July thousands have learned the
Spanish and Italian languages from
the simple lessons published in the
Dispatch. More people, however,
who would have liked to have learned
those languages were prevented from
doing so by not knowing about them.
We hope every one in this vicinity
may read this item, and take adj
vantage of the opportunity. The
first lesson will be printed Monday,
Feb. 5. Tell your newsagent to
leave the Daily Dispatch regularly
and get the benefit Of these daily les
sons-only 10 cents lv the week.

DEATH OF MOTHER
KEPT FROM JUROR.
Judge in Philadelphia Graft Trial
Refused to Let Talesman
Know of Illness.

Philadelphia, Jan. 6.-Kept in igno-
rance of the death of his aged mother,
Mrs. Sarah j. Gore, Thursday last, Louis
B. Gore, the second to be drawn on
the jury in the trial of John w. Hill,
former chief of the filtration bureau,
on charges Of forgery and classifying
of records, listened today to the pres
,entation Of further testimony in the
case, while the funeral, unknown to
him, took place. Judge Audenreid, be-
fore whom Mr.. Hill is being tried, has
decided Gore must not be told Of his
mothers death until the jury Of which
he is q member has been discharged.
The trial is expected to last at least
a week longer and Gore will remain
locked up with the other talesmen IN
til then.
Cores mother often asked for him
as she lay on her deathbed. His wife
interviewed Judge Audenreid and saw
District Attorney Bell to plead that he
be released. Judge Audenreid ex-
pressed regret that SO unfortunate a
contingency should have arisen, but
said he felt the ends Of justice might
be interfered with if a member Of the
jury should have his mind distracted
by personal WORRY or grief,
