ing of tuberculosis of the bowels,
from which she has suffered for
the past two years. She was a
most lovable young woman who
numbered her friends by the
score. Funeral services were
held Monday morning at St.
Mary's Catholic church, conduct
ed by Rev. Father Drummer; in
terment in the Catholic ceme-
terry, near this city.
Three men, giving the names
of George Smith, Charles Bow
man and Frank Williams, were
brought over from Bradford last
Saturday night and lodged in
Jail, charged with car-breaking.
Twentysix pairs of pants were
recovered which they had stolen,
with some other articles, from a
Big Four freight car near Stel-
video one night last week. The
names they gave are considered
to be fictitious and the railway
detectives feel sure they have
them properly identified as a
band of noted crooks and bank
robbers. Two others in the gang
were successful in making their
escape before the officers could
lay hands on them.
Three of Tom VOLTS children
Pand a little daughter Of William
Coombs were poisoned by eating
candy last Sunday. Mrs. Wolf
and children had been spending
a few days at the Coombs home,
near Ansonia, and Tom had gone
up Sunday to accompany them
home, stopping at a country store
on the way where he bought some
candy to delight the little folks,
but soon after eating some of it
they became deathly sick and
were in a critical condition for a
time. They are now out of dam
ger, however, but too sick to be
brought home just yet. The re-
mainder of the candy is being
chemically analyzed and the gro
ceryman has been notified not to
sell any more of it.
Francis Springer, aged about
Al years, met a terrible death
near North Star last Saturday
afternoon. A steam saving out
fit was in operation on the Grill
liot farm, a mile and a half east
Of North Star, converting a lot
of old rails into stove wood and
Springer was engaged in supply
ing the sawyer with rails. They
had been taking rails from one
side of the pile only, and before
they noticed it the pile had be-
come top-heavy and was begin
ming to fall. In his effort to get
away and save himself from be-
ing crushed under the pile of
rails he ran into the saving ma
chine and fell onto the saw re-
shifting in his head being cut op-
en- and causing instant death be-
fore his Mortified companions
could rescue him from his peril
GUS position. He was married
only a year or so ago and is sur
vived by his wife, a little babe
and his parents.
Fred Rust, the veteran railway
mail clerk, who has had a run on

oriain of TYphoid Fever.

President Mayo said at the last
meeting of the American Medical as
sociation that a sufferer from typhoid
fever has as good a right to sue the
city where he contracted the filthy
complaint as though he had hurt him
self by a fall on a defective pave
ment, and yet we read in the news
papers of epidemics of typhoid fever
broken out in Cincinnati, Newark and
other places. Were it outbreak OF
rinderpest or foot-and-mouth disease,
stringent means would be at once
taken to stop it, and all the forces
of the government would be enlisted
20 save cattle or sheep that have a
market value. But human beings may
die OF typhoid fever. as our soldiers
did in Camp Thomas, and no one be
called to account.-Dr. Richard Cole

MeWhouse ActiYllu.

There has never been a time in the
history of the Newhouse tunnel when
there was equal activity with that
which now prevails, says the Idaho
Springs Gazette. A larger number of
mines are being worked than ever be-
fore and in: every case the work is be-
ing pushed as hard as possible. In the
Saratoga the upraise to the old workings
had, on the first of the month, Just $50
feet to go and it is expected that it will
break through this month. The accom-
plishment of this work is scarcely of
less moment to the tunnel than it is to
the Saratoga mine itself. BY that way
the tunnel will be ventilated automatic
ally for three miles of its length and in
much better manner than is possible
by mechanical means. The benefits of
the ventilation will accrue to all other
properties operated in the tunnel also,
as it will be necessary to drive the
gases out of the comparatively short
laterals into the main tunnel where it
will be drawn out quickly.

DOCTORS MxST4FES

Are said often to be buried six feet under
ground. But many times women call on
their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid
ney disease, another from nervous pros
tration, another with pain here and there,
and in this way they present alike to
themselves and their eaSy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such, prescribes
his pills and potions. In reality, they are
all only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the

wrong treatment. but probably worse. A
proper medicine like DR.. Pierce's Favoritc

SEATTLE HAS
ICE PRICE WAR

SEATTLE, Nov. 21-Ten cents
a hundred for ice. with a contract
offer to sell it at that figure for
two years to some consumers in
this city, is one of the desperate
efforts being made by the ice trust
to drive the new competing COM
pany out of business.
The Restaurant Keepers associa-
ton was primarily responsible for
the beginning of the ice war. Some
time ago the association under
took to investigate the ice situa-
ton, with view to ascertaining
the reason for the high price of
that commodity. After studying
the question, they conclude they
could manufacture their own ice,
sell it to their members at 20 cents
and make profit from its manu-
facture. 1t was about this time
that the Pacific Ice Co., the indie
pendent concern, began to put it's
product on the market, making the
contemplated move unnecessary.
Following this agitation, the
trust companies began a drastic
cutting of prices. which has result
ed in the present chaotic condition
of the market.
