COAL OIL CLAIMS VICTIM.
CenterviIe Woman Fatally Burned
~ BY EXPLOSION.


Centerville-Two tragedies stirred
this city on the 5th, both the more
lamentable because the result OF
carelessness.
The fire which Mrs. Seth Thomas
had started to cook the evening meal
did not ignite apparently and she
poured coal oil on the wood. A ter
rife explosion occurred and the un-
fortunate woman was in an instant
wrapped in a sheet Of flame. Her hus-
band hearing her screams rushed in
and fought the flames with his bare
hands. He was badly burned him
self. Mrs. Thomas is still alive but
there is hardly any hope of recov
cry for she is burned deeply from
head to foot.
The other terrible event of the day
occurred to miner named August
Falla, who was out hunting squirrels
with companion about nine miles
north of here.
Fala shot squirrel. The bullet
did not kill the animal and he grasp
ed his gun by the barrel to WELD as
club. Both barrels discharged stimuli
taneously as he swung tlAe weapon
and the shot passed through his
chest killing him instantly.

SHOOTS TO PROTECT HOME.

rlington.-Because of Gated
prosecutions, it is alleged GEAR
old Charley Duryea, livi49 about
six miles north of the city on the
Irish Ridge road, shot and wounded
W. J. Dunno at the Duryea home.
The bullet penetrated DUNES abdo-
men, hit rib and glanced around,
lodging near the surface of the skin
in the right hip. DUNES wound is
not serious and he was able to come
to town and file an information
against his assailant. Mrs. Duryea,
mother of the boy who did the shoot
ing and a hard working and respec-
table widow, drove in with the lad,
who gave himself up to the police.
He was locked up pending his pre-
liminary hearing.
Dunno, who was rather intoxicated
when he appeared at the police sta
ton, said that Duryea shot him with
out provocation. Mrs. Duryea and
her son tell a different story. They
argue that Dunno has repeatedly per-
secuted them and that they wanted
him to keep away from the place.

PRESCRIPTIONS IN LATIN.
The Public Should Have Them Trans
lated by the Druggists.

What virtue is there in the secrecy
with which the doctor hedges ABOUT
his profession
Professional etiquette occupies a
prominent place in the curriculum OF
every medical school, and when strict
~ analysed professional etiquette
seems to mean doing what is best for
the doctor, individually and col
lectively."
Among the things that "is best for
the doctor" is the writing OF his pre-
scriptions in Latin, and thus keeping
the public in ignorance not only OF
what it is taking for its ills, but fore
ing a call upon the doctor each time
a prescription is needed.
In plain and unmistakable English
the writing of prescriptions in Latin
makes business for the doctors.
Let us say that you have the ague.
You had it last year and the year be-
fore. Each time you have visited the
doctor and he has prescribed for you
in Latin. You have never, known
what he has given you for the disease,
and so each time you are forced to go
to him again and give him an oppor'
tunity to repeat his prascription-ln
Latin, and his fee-in dollars.
If you ask the doctor why he uses
Latin in writing his prescriptions, why
he writes "aqua" when he means wa
ter, he will give you technical dis
sertation on the purity OF the Latin
language, and the fact that all words
are derived from it, etc. 1t will be
dissertation that you may not be able
to answer, but it will hardly convince
you.
1t would be good thing for the pub
lie to devise little code OF ethics OF
it's own; ethics that will be "a good
thing for the public individually and
collectively"
Let us apply one OF the rules of this
code of ethics to You, the individual.
You call in the physician when you
have the ague, the grippe, or any OF
the other ills to which human flesh Is
heir, and which you may have again
some day. The doctor prescribes-in
Latin, and you take this, to you, mean
ingless scribble to the druggist to
have it compounded Right here is
where you come in, If you are wise.
Say to the druggist that you want
translation of that prescription. 1t Is
your privilege to know what you are
taking. While the doctors code OF
ethics may not recognize this right 1t
is yours just the same.
With the translated prescription In
your possession you have two distinct
advantages. You know what you are
taking, and should you wish to call
some other doctor at some time you
will be able to tell him what drugs you
have been putting into your system,
and also if you should have the same
disease again you can save yourself
a visit to the doctor, and his fee, by
taking this translated prescription to
the druggist once more and having 1t
refilled,

PHILLIPS WIDOW ARRESTED
MURDER CASE HAS
A SENSATIONAL TURN.
Or, Richardson Tells Coroner's Jury
of Peculiar Circumstances Sur
rounding Death.

Cleveland C.-Developments in the
Investigation into the death OF John
]. Phillips, coal operator broker,
banker and clubman, came thick ana
fast Wednesday and took a sensation
al turn late in the afternoon When
Mrs. Phillips, widow of the deceased,
was taken into custody by Chief OF
Police Stamberger, of the aristocratic
suburb, East Cleveland.
Late Wednesday night Chief STAN
berger made public warrant whlcn
was issued by Justice Brown, OF East
Cleveland, charging Mrs. Phillips with
the murder of her husband. The war
rant charges second degree murder.
Up to a late hour Mrs. Phillips, who
collapsed about the funeral hour in
the afternoon, had not regained con-
seriousness. Physicians attending her
say her condition is serious.
The police are reticent in the case,
and whether they really believe Mrs.
Phillips culpable in the murder or
whether they merely believe that She
can give facts concerning the tragedy
which would sol.e the mystery sur
rounding it, does not appear at this
time.
The inquest into the death of Phil
lips was resumed Wednesday morning
by Deputy Coroner Houck. DR.. G.. l..
Richardson, the first witness, testi'
fed he had not been summoned until
four a. M, more than three hours
after Phillips was shot. He had been
called by telephone. Mrs. Phillips adj
mitted him to the house. She ex-
claimed:
"Oh, doctor, something dreadful has
happened! Mr.. Phillips has been shot
by a burglar"
He found the wounded man in bed
He called DR.. Rhodes. After they
reached the house Phillips asked them
to leave the bedroom a minute as he
wished to talk with his wife. Hus-
band and wife were together alone for
perhaps two minutes. He said there
was a trace of blood on the stairway.
The bed in which Phillips was found
was much stained by blood When
the physicians reached Phillips they
realized Immediately. DR.. Richardson
said, he could live but a short time.
