400 REWARD, 800.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded dis
ease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitu-
tional disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and mucous
surfaces Of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation Of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the constitu-
ton and assisting nature in doing its work
The proprietors have so much faith in its
curative powers, that they Offer one Hundred
Dollars for any case that il fails to cure

to perform his duties. The main ad-
dress of the day was given by Rev.
w. A. Warner of Barton in his usual
felicitous manner. He dwelt on the
results following the Rebellion and
the Spanish war, the fraternal spirit
of the soldiers and the uniting to-
gether of friends and cementing of
friendships. Geo. W. Bridgeman of
Hardwick spoke of the old soldier,
and gave some interesting facts in
connection with the soldiers duties
etc. He emphasized the idea of keep
ing up the Sons of Veterans associa-
ton, also the w. r. G. Comrade
Bridgman is an earnest, positive
speaker and always has something
good to say. Col T. NJ. Mansur spoke
concerning the government before
and since the war. Col. Mansur is an
enthusiastic speaker and always holds
the closest attention of his hearers.
Mr.. Warner of East Hardwick spoke
in regard to the freeing of the slaves
a subject which he knew was seldom
used on such an occasion. His re-
marks were good, instructive and
interesting. Remarks were made by
several other comrades, who mixed a
little spice with interesting facts, just
enough to keep all in good humor and
make the occasion enjoyable. There
was one place where all the veterans
did the occasion justice, namely, the
dinner table. While they enjoyed the
speaking and music and social hand
shaking, the appetizing foods disap-
peared like dew before the sun. The
w. R. @. have the name of tempting
the appetite strangely, and their
efforts on this occasion met with the
greatest success. The music con-
sisted of selections by Stones or
chestra and by the choir, and songs
by Miss Marion Bickford ard G.. s..
Parker, all of which were good. Miss
BicKford sang "Auld Lang Syne," and
for an encore "When Johnnie Comes
Marching Home" G. S. Parker sang
familiar song and "Marching
through Georgia" as, an encore. At
the business meeting the following
officers were chosen: President, O..
M. George, Albany; vice president,
Elijah Stone; secretary and treasurer,
@. @. Wheeler, Troy; executive com
mittee, D. Cobb, Albany; ]. N. Web
ster, Barton; John Kelley, Albany;
Capt. Averill, Westmore. The next
meeting is to be held at the call of
the executive committee at Albany.

representative of the wild cattle. An
idea of the extremely diminutive pro-
portions of the anoa, as the animal in
question, which has some of the char
acteristics of the buffalo, is called,
may be gained when it is stated. that
it's height at the shoulder is only three

ROGER BROTHERS"

Evidenty the Roger Brothers, who have not had vehicle to equal "ihe Reign of Terror" in which they made a lasting impression on Waterpury about eight years ago, are losing their popularity in this city for last evening, for the first time in many moons there were several empty seats to greet the brothers. Tn Ireland.' It has often been said that the Roger Brothers themselves are like a circus for once seen, it is all over, as they are the same year in and year out. The fratres following in the footsteps or the stars who have packed houses on hand at almost every performance are becoming stingy about their sing ing and dancing but are almost as talkative as ever. Their songs last evening were well received and they were forced to respond to many en- cores. Gus. finally making his custom ary speech, which. with interruptions by Max, was enjoyed Miss Bessie De Voe, who although somewhat chumpy, though not so much so as Marion Stanley. ripped herself into favor and was pleasing to the au- dience. She did no warbling to speak of. but smiled her sweet smile all through the performance. Miss Nation Stanley. who with her song ''So Differ ent," and her duets with Winifretl Young, should take little exercise daily, as she is becoming very stout. Still the audience last night seemed to like her and she, apparently. was tickled to death at the manner in which she was scoring. The effects were good and the audience for the most part seemed to be satisfied with the entire performance.

WHY SHE WASSILENT
Mrs. Holman Defends Herself
 In Thaw Case.
EVELYN WIRED HER TO SAY NOTHING
Mother In Pittsburg Says She Knew ' Nothing of Her Daughters Down. fall-TFusted Stanford White
 Implicitly as Friend.

fall-TFusted stanford White
 Implicitly as Friend.
 PITTSBURG, April 17.-Mrs. C. j.. Holman, mother of Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, defends herself against the ac- cusations expressed and implied against her during the Thaw trial in state ment here.
 She opened it by declaring that two nights after Harry Thaw shot Stan ford White she received this telegram from her daughter:
 Tt is most important for you to say absolutely nothing.'
 Until now she has remained silent. but she has been forced to reply to the attack made upon her by MT. Delmas in his closing address to the Thaw jury.
 She denies that she aided the district attorney in any way and that she had been seen by Mr. Jerome, MT. Garvan or MT. Hartridge.
 Mrs. Holman then details her strug- gle following the death of her first hus- band in her efforts to properly raise her two children and says her daugh- ter first posed for an artist named Storm of Philadelphia, who met Eve lyn at Cresson, Pa, summer resort. when little girl
 Florence" she says, twas in love with the stage"
 The mother did everything to dis courage her, but it was useless.
 The story of Florence's first meeting with Stanford White, Mrs. Holman says, is substantially as told by her daughter on the witness stand.
 When Florence returned she told her mother that she had met the grandest man, and later, when Mir. White sent for Mrs. Holman, she went to his office. Mir. White. she says. warned her spe- officially against several young men with whom Florence had become ac- quainted, but did not refer to Thaw.
 His manner, words and actions were the personiflcation of whole hearted, disinterested generosity. Mrs. Holman says. and if ever woman reposed i'm plicit confidence in man she did. Mrs. Holman asserts that if Florence underwent the experience that is said to have befallen her she did not take her into her confidence. Continuing, she said:
 Had she told me what she told the Thaw jury 1t would not have been nee essary for Harry Thaw to kill Stanford White. would have shot him myself" Speaking of the European trip, Mrs. Holman says:
 Every detail Of the trip was and is . nightmare to me. Mir. Thaw joined us in Paris. Florence and shared the same apartments. Mir. Thaw had apart ments by himself" In closing Mrs. Holman said: "I solemnly affirm that my love for my daughter Is as deep and intense as it was when first held her in my arms helpless baby. Regardless of all that has transpired, my affection is unaltered. The door of my home Is open to her and will swing wide at her lightest tap today. tomorrow and al- ways while live"
