BEASTS BUTCHER BOY.
Monkeys Attack Four.Year Old Child
Armed With Knife, the Bloodthirsty
Animals Gain Entrance to
Residence.

Grand Rapids, Mich.-Parallel-
ing in several respects the plot of
Edgar Allan Poe's story, The
Murders in the Rue Morgue, was
the deadly attack by two monkeys
made on little Riford Worth, son
of F. c. Worth of 50 Briggs court,
this city.
While the child was sleeping the
beasts entered through a window,
one carrying butcher knife. I'M
mediately they assaulted the boy,
who is years old. While one at
tackled him with the knife, slashing
the la about the eye aud seriously
cutting his arms and shoulders,
the other pounded and scratched
his face and body.
Mrs. H. B. Riford, the baby s
grandmother, heard the screams of
the child. She had hardly entered
the room before the monkeys charg-
ed upon her and drove her from
the apartment. Then, with a
triumphant brandish of the knife,
one beast jumped for the window,
closely followed by its mate, and
disappeared, The police were not
flied and detectives searched the
city for the monkeys. They were
located at the home of Dr.. B. J..
Zudzense, at 430 Lyon street. DR..
Zudzense said that the animals
were his pets, and that he had
owned them fourteen years Of
late they have been displaying more
viciousness than usual. Both are
good sized beasts, standing about
three feet six inches. No arrests
were made, although Mr.. Worth
conferred with the prosecuting at
torney relative to securing a
warrant or at least having the
monkeys banished from the reign
borhood. At worth hospital
ii was stated that the child was
probably fatally injured, having
failed to recover consciousness in
five hours.
When 1 enteredRiford sroom, "
said Mrs. Riford, 1 saw the
monkeys dancing like demons OH
the boys bed, screechiug and
chattering, the quilts were covered
with blood and Riford appeared
dead. 1 could hardly believe my
eyes. 1 screamed and the sound
attracted the attention of the
monkeys to me. They leaped
from the bed and drove me out of
the room and then jumped through
the window.
Prosecuting Attorney Brown re-
fused to say tonight whether or
not he would issue warrants for
the arrest of the monkeys or their
owner.

Miss Alice wore one of the handsom-
est gowns ever turned out in this couli-
try. When she was in China the Dow
ager Empress presented her with ORR
entail dress goods as rich as those worn
by the Queen of Sheba. She was anx-
ious to utilize these for an exquisite
wedding gown, but her father objected,
and had made for her, at Paterson,
n j., MILL a fabric Of special design.
The gown is of white satin, in princess
style, with a court train of broche, the
design being a rose outlined in silver
thread. The skirt is plain, tight fit
ting, with no trimming. Drapings Of
tulle, chiffon ruche, ruffies of lace, and
a yoke of real rose point give the fin
ishing touches to the gown. Orange
blossoms fell loosely over the coiffure,
which was a la pompadour, and the veil
reached almost to the bottom of the
train.
While she was prevented from hav-
ing the wedding gown made of the
exquisite Oriental shawls presented to

TWITCHING NERVES
A Serious Hereditary Trouble Cured
By Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Sufferers from ailments that have af-
hicted in regular succession one genera
ton after another of their family are, as
a rule. inclined to submit to them as in
eyitable. The case which follows proves
that such hereditary difficulties are not
beyond the reach of curative forces and
should inspire hopefulness and a readi-
ness to try remedies that have effected
signal cures, such as that which is here
given.
Mrs. Elizabeth Rannells, of No. 408
East Seventh street, Newton, Kansas,
gives the following account OF her all
ment and her cure:
'sFor two years suffered from trying
nervousness i'll my lower limbs from my
knees down, as my mother and my
grandmother had suffered before me-.
The situation was for many years ac-
cepted as unavoidable because heredl-
tary. But about two years ago, when my
sou was realizing benefit from the use Of
DIR. Williams Pink Pills, thought there
might possibly be some good Ill them for
me. Ny trouble had then become SO
serious as to make it difficult for me to
sleep. I often had to walk the floor III
restlessness the whole night. After TAX
ing some six boxes the twitching disap-
peared and I ceased to use the remedy.
I evidently stopped a little too soon for
nervousness came back after month or
so and I used the pills again for short
time. Relief came at once and since /
stopped using them the second time l
have been free from any return of the
twitchings or from any interference with
my sleep"
DR. Williams Pink Pills have cured
thevorst cases of bloodlessness, indiges-
ton, influenza, headaches, lumbago, sci
atica, neuralgia, nervousness, spinal
weakness and the special ailments Of girls
and women. Tor further information,

East Room-Bride the Famous
Daughter of Famous Father
Groom Has Character and Wealth.
WASHINGTON corresnondence:

Washington correspondence:
No bride of recent years-and posi-
bly, none of any time-has been looked
upon with such an amount of interest
and been the object of so much mingled
curiosity and admiration as the one
who Saturday stood in the East room
of the White House and linked her
future with that of Nicholas Long
worth.
No other American has been the re-
cipient Of such worldwide favors as
Alice Roosevelt. The stream Of gifts,
rich in their intrinsic value and richer
in their symbolism of the worlds good
will to us, has flown steadily for sew
eral weeks The mysterious treasure
boxes of ancient China and Japan; the
jewels of the Orient and the art and
skill of the Occident have been crawn
upon in larger measure than ever be-
fore for a single bride to demonstrate
that the nations Of the earth take pleas
ure in honoring the daughter OF the
man who has done so much to advance
the cause Of peace and has aided 50
materially in bringing his own country
to position of world-recognized great
ness. For the gifts which have been
sent to Miss Roosevelt are not only a
compliment to this young woman of
striking personality, but are likewise
a tribute of respect to her father and
to the nation whose head he is.
On the other hand, it is mistake to
assume that it is only because she is
her fathers daughter that Miss Roose-
welt is thus remembered. She shines

Tragedy Rivals Nan Patterson Case

a murder mystery with some features
not unlike that of the famous Patterson
case of two years ago, is engaging the at
tention of the New York police. AS in
the crime which cost Caesar Young his
life and Nan Patterson, an actress, more
than a year of her liberty, cab and
woman of the stage are the principal fea-
lures in the mystery. The woman, Gus
sic Hart, was the victim, and the carriage
according to the theory Of the police, was
the scene of her death. Several persons
who are thought to know something of the
manner in which the woman was killed
have disappeared. The police arrested
Edward Murphy, dancing master, who
said that he was with Gussie Hart on the
fatal night and that he called the doctor.

UNDER WHICH KING.

s'The More Postum the More Food
the More Coffee the More Poison
The President Of the w. G. T. u. in
says:
II did not realize that was q slave
to coffee till l left off drinking it. For
three or four years I was obliged to
take a nerve tonic every day. Now
am free, thanks to Postum Food Cof-
fee.
AFTER finding out what coffee will
do to it's victims, l could hardly stand
to have my husband drink it; but he
was not willing to quit. I studied for
months to find way to induce him to
leave it off. Finally I told him
would make no more coffee.
II got Postum Food Coffee, and
made it strong-boiled it the required
time, and had him read the little book,
The Road to Wellville,' that comes in
every pkg.
To-day Postum has no stronger adj
vocate than my husband! He tells
our friends how to make it, and that
he got through the winter without
spell of the grip and has not had a
headache for months-le used to be
subject to frequent nervous head
aches.
The stronger you drink Postum the
more food you get; the stronger you
drink coffee the more poison you get"

breakfast in the state dining room,
Mrs. Longworth donned her going
gown and the couple started on the
honeymoon. The travelling gown was
pale blue cloth, made with a circular
skirt, trimmed with bands of cloth, and
a short jacket and high girdle, the
front trimmed with fancy braid in blue
and white, with touches of silver. The
hat of pale blue, to match the gown
and turned up on one side with knot
of tulle and silver ornament holding
the aigrette, which is the chief trim
ming.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth
began their honeymoon by driving in
an auto from the White House to
Friendship, the country place of John
r. Mclean, eight miles away, and aft
erWard started on a southern trip. The
tour probably will include visit to

of the winter will be spent in Wash
ington. Then the young couple go
abroad.
Beautffully-Goxvned Guests
Miss Alice was not the only hand
sOmely gowned woman at her wedding.
The simple fact is that never in the
history of weddings in this country has
there been such preparation for re-
splendent gowning. The dressmakers
of five Washington, Baltimore.
Philadelphia, New York and Boston,
say that never before in their experi-
ence have such orders for wedding cos
tunes been placed with them. Prob
ably the handsomest gowns heretofore
seen at any wedding in this country
were at the Marlborough wedding in
st. Thomas Church, New York. It
was beautiful sight for a day cere-
mony, but it is said that the costumes
at Miss Alice's wedding far surpassed
even those at the Marlborough nun
tials. The very fact that the guests
were limited as to number seemed to
be stimulus for every woman there
to look her best
The presents were a most attractive
display. The gift of hte French gov
eminent was beautiful tapestry, COST
ing $4,000; that of the Cuban govern
ment a pearl necklace costing $4,000.
