found her in one Of the conditions
mentioned by DR. Gurney. She was In
ashigh state of exhilaration. The pulse
was strong, the temperature normal,
ana but for the exhilaration the pa.
tient seemed much improved. Having
asked IL anything had excited her, the
doctor was Informed that nothing un-
usual had occurred. She had had sew.
eral visitors, but none who was not
used to seeing her often. The doctor
prescribed a sedative and went away
more puzzled than ever. Subsequently
he took several Of his colleagues, spe-
cialists, to see the patient. Each pro.
nounced the disease result OF trouble
In the organs of which he had made a
study. Or. Tinkham gave their views
to the father Of the young lady, giving
his own opinion that DR.. Thane.
Brooks, liver specialist, should be
called in for consultation. DIR. Thane,
Brooks, though no marks Of disease
could be detected In the organ, was Of
opinion that the disease was there.
The symptoms clearly indicated It, a
vigorous course Of liver treatment was
decided upon.
The patient failed to endure the
treatment, the stomach breaking down
under the quantities of medicine pour
ed into It, DIR. yermaton, stomach spe-
clalist, remarked facetiously that the
liver must be stronger than the stom-
ach and they would do well to look
for the seat Of the disease In the latter
organ
The case having baffled the doctors,
trip was recommended. A trip for
incurables serves several purposes. 1t
takes the patient away from medicines,
gives change Of scene and air, and the
doctors are relieved. However, In this
case all these benefits were aborted
from the fact that the patient would
not take a trip she persisted In re-
naming at home, subjected to the
same routine each day, and each day
growing worse
But her physician, having recon-
meHueu trip, cOnsIutFeu himself NOT
further responsible. One morning he
received by the post letter from the
father of his former patient. It was
very caustic:

ANOTHER
GIRL VICTIM
New York Girl Assaulted
Then Murdered
MISSING OVER A WEEK
The Victim Of the Most Brutal Of All
Recent Attacks, the Coroner Says
Evidences Shown Of
Strangulation.
MISSING OVER A WEEK

New York, Aug. 2-The excitement
caused in this city by the recent atroc-
ious crimes against women and children
was greatly increased by the diAeoyerey
Of the body Of an eight yearold girl
in the cellar Of an East side tenement.
The child had been assaulted and then
murdered. There were marks on the
throat indicating that perhaps the little
one was strangled.
The suspicion that the child was
choked to death, taken in connection
with the murder of Sophie Kohrer and
OF an unidentified woman by strangula-
ton, leads the police to believe that
there is maniac at large in the city
who is possessed Of an insane desire to
Kill women and children by the same
method.
BY order Of Coroner Hamburger, Gaze
tano Rippolone, cobbler who has a
shop IN the building where the murdered
girl lived, was taken to police head
quarters. He was asked TO explain his
absence from home last Friday, one
day after Katie Dretchler disappeared,
and in reply said he had gone to Bristol,
Conn, To close bargain for cobbler's
shop there. He showed letters from
Italians in that city to support the
statement.
The three men who were arrested on
Wednesday night as result Of the
investigation into the death OF the wo-
man who was found strangled in an
areaway in East Ninetieth street last
Monday, were held without bail yester-
day. The men are John kuzmitho, a
Russian Waterman employed near where
the body was found; Frank GrevoId and
Peter Cuver, Greek pusheart peddlers.

In preparing fruit for market not in

frequent sight IN the commission
houses OF any OF our large cities TO see
men sorting and repacking fruit care

that is the best that can be got for It,
The large. fine specimens are sorted out

bring special price, often much great

such grading, which might have gone
to the grower, naturally went to the
commission merchant who did the
work. The farmer. moreover paid the
snme freight on the inferior fruit in
the package that he did on the special
grade that brought the special price to
the commission merchant a good
