Victim BIZ Into the fearful Bulb and
Slowly Recovered.
A resident and business man of New
York told me yesterday: In one Of
our growing western towns which I
occasionally visit I knew q young man
who was engaged to marry = beautifui
girl. He was suddenly seized with an
insane desire to injure her. She called
for her father and brother and the
latter ran for the family physician,
who, upon his arrival. ordered q glass
Of water to be brought. At sight Of
It the young man frothed at the mouth,
exhibiting all the symptoms of rabies.
He was taken to the attic and fastened
with a chain around his body to q ring
IN the door.
zone day. after many weary weeks
Of watching, a favorable change was
noticed. How do you feel!' asked the
doctor. oh, I'm much better was
the reply, but you didn't cure me,
doctor. 1t was that pile Of onions in
the corner. See! Every time I felt
crazy desire to bite anybody would
bury my teeth in one Of the onions and
they have gradually drawn out all the
poison. am entirely we'll Upon
examination an onion was found which
had turned green with the poison,
perhaps the first one bitten. The
physician frankly acknowledged that
the onion had saved the patients life"
A veteran Of the civil war says: "A
soldier was stricken with smallpox
and unknown to the physicians 4
bunch OF onions was hanging in his
tent. We expected him to die. but he
suddenly got better and in short time
was entirely recovered. A few days
after he got out the onions were taken
down and they we're found to be
mushy, which the doctor said Was
caused by their drawing the smallpox
out Of the patient. Az they were
inoculated with the disease they were
destroyed."-EsV York Press.

He had been i'll short time with pneumonia. AIr Curtin attended St Mary's church and sang in its choir for many years. He was member of many societies. He belonged to Court Friendly, F. of A., the First Division. A. o. H., the New Britain lodge of Elks. the Catho- lie Legion, Ferdinand council, K. of C., and the Knights of St Patrick He married Miss Mary O'keefe of New Bedford, Mass, the daughter of Ed mund O'Keefe.

 Young Curtin attended the New Britain schools, but before going through the high school left to work for B. c, Porter. He stayed there five years and learned from him the furniture and undertaking business. He then left and started a furniture and undertaking business under the firm name of Curtain & Nelligan. In the firm besides himself were his twin brother, James M. Curtin, who still retains his interest in the busi- ness, and William Nelligan. At the death of MT Nelligan some years ago the Curtins bought out his share. The firm then became John NJ Curtin x Go, as at present. After the busi- ness had remained in the Opera House block for nearly fifteen years the Curtin brothers erected a block on Main street and moved their busi- ness there. It has been conducted at this stand for about ten years.

VIOLATINGLIQUORLAW
Police Visited Two Places Yes
 terday-Cases Postponed.

The police descended upon two places yesterday that bear the repu- tation of being places where the liq- uor laws are violated every Sunday. One of them was the fruit store of Frank Tedor at 69O North Main street, and the other an alleged club at S9 South Main street. A search warrant had been issued against Tedor's place Saturday and the po- lice bided their time to visit there. It. is reported that they found men in the very act of disposing of a half dozen bottles of beer in the most nat ural way in the world. The visiting police were Detectives Kennaugh ana Colesanto, and as memento of the visit they returned to the station house with samples of bottled beer, such as Tedor's customers used it, Italian wine, used at Italian christen- ings and weddings and other alleged spirituous compounds.
 James Stickles and Charles Keller are the reputed owners of the club at 69 South Main street. A number ot men are said to have been found there but as the premises are not licensed for the sale of liquor they were not arrested The cases were postponed to Saturday to suit the convenience of Prosecuting Agent Hayes. Mean while, it is quite likely they will De settled.

THE POLICE COURT.
Some Heavy Fines Dealt Out Thi!
 Morning.

Anthony Bulot interferred with De- tective Kennaugh Saturday evening as he was about to arrest a man for serious assault committed in saloon in Brooklyn the other evening. The accused man was warned by Bulot, whereupon he made dive for a win. dow and went through it taking sash and all with him. The jump wal from a second story window and if he escaped injury or is hurt is kept a secret by his countrymen. Bulot had nothing to say for himself that any one could understand and as had not provided himself with an interpreter his case had to go as it stood. He was fined $25 and costs and given three months in jail and in case oi appeal bond was fixed at $1,000.
 Michael Sugrue for being intoxicat. ed yesterday was fined $7 and costs.
 Officer Kiersted arrested Carmelio Mucci last evening for aiming a re. volver at him when questioned on the sidewalk. The officer concluded he was up against the Black Hand propo. sition and he made short work of Mucci by hitting him a whack in the face that felled him. Then he quick. ly put the bracelets on him and took him off to the station house. Mucci settled for $25.
 A number of cases of intoxication were settled out of court.

MERRY MILKMEN
Still Mixing Things Up For
 Users of the Fluid.

The fight is still on with the milk men. Some of them are charging cents quart and others are selling it for 6. Where this condition of things exists there must be something wrong. If the milkmen keep on push ing up prices the people will some day rise up and demand the passage of a legislative enactment authorizing municipalities to regulate the price of breadstuffs. This is done in other places and it looks as if we had reach ed stage when it isn't any too soon to try it here. Is there anything to prevent the milkmen from calling an- other meeting and deciding to charge twenty cents a quart? Nothing ex- cept d little competition and the fel- lows in the combine are doing their best to throttle that. Nine cents a quart is too much and the fact that several dealers are not charging that and make no bones of stating that It is not necessary proves that the trust prices are exorbitant.

THE KELLER WILL

The will of the late Homer w.. Keeler of the Keeler Co, South Main street, was filed for probate. MT Keeler left $13O for the erection of monument over his burial plot, with the provision that the stone is not to cost any more.

Cowles, and the other half of the remainder to the children of his deceased daughter, Anna Keel CT Wentworth, in trust with their father, Frank Wentworth, till they reach the age of twenty-one years. MT Keeler provided that if after having paid the above bequests the remaind- CT shall exceed $12,000 it is to be di- vided between the daughters Miss Keeler and Mrs Cowles and the chill dren of Mrs Wentworth. And an- other provision was that if Miss Keel CT married before the testator's de- cease one-third of the excess just shall be hers.
