HAS FIVE HUNDRED WIVES
PRIZE BIGANiIST, WITH A CHlCA-
GO CAREER, UNDER ARREST.
Man of Remarkable Matrimonial FIX
PLOTS Would Have No TriiiIn%
in His Making.

in His love- Making.
A New York dispatch to the Rec
ord-Herald says:
George A. Withhold, the worlds
champion bigamist, who is credited
with having 500 wives, is believed
to be under arrest at Bristol, Eng
land. Reports from the police OF
that city say that their prisoner gives
the name of Arthur Hynes, but his
dissertation and career fit those OF
Witzhof.
Hynes or Witzhoff was arrested
on a charge of matrimonial frauds.
He is wanted in many cities in the
United States, scores of women being
compliments.
His matrimonial advertisements
are worded mo trifers need apply.
His arrest was brought about by
Bristol young woman who answered
one of his advertisements and then
loaned him $500.
Witzhoff married a number OF Chi
cago women before he left the United
States.
Matrimonial Exploits Remarkable.
Witzhoff is declared by those who
are familiar with his exploits to be
the most remarkable bigamist that
ever lived. His knowledge of women
is without a flaw, and compared with
his slippery methods the love-mak-
ing of the unlamented Johann Hoch
was a cumbersome and awkward eff
fort. Hoch spent the best years OF
his life in the accumulation OF fifty
wives, while his distinguished con-
Temporary seems to have been able
to increase his list of better halves
at the rate of two or three week
for a period of five years. AS with
the Chicago bigamist, the love-mak-
ing of WITHHOLD was directed toward
the savings accounts of the women
he married and once their money was
transferred from their keeping into
his own the muchmarried dentist
sought greener pastures.
WitzhOff came to America from
Switzerland over ten years ago. For
awhile he maintained dental office
in Detroit.

CURES COUGHS AND COLDS.
Hyomei Gives Relief in 10 Minutes
Cures over Night.

Everybody knows, or ought to know, that
Hyomei is recognized among scientists as
the specific for Catarrh, Asthma, Hronchi-
tbs and Hay Fever, but there are a great
many people who do not know that Iiyomei
will cure a cough or cold in less than "a
hours.
But everyone should know that the sooth-
ing. balmy and antiseptic air of liyomei
when breathed over the raw and intiamed
membrane of the nose and throat will in,
stantly allay the Inflammation, and will
effect prompt cure.
Complete Hyomei outfit, including inha.

The Shoe Situation.

Shoe shops receive a steady call for tan
goods, but business in staple footwear is
light, and many producers are taking stock.
Wholesalers report a fair trade, but restrict
orders from New England factories to i'm
mediate wants, and shipments from Boston
are averaging $4,000 to 10000 cases less than
in the same week last year.-Dun's Review,
April 11th.

Boston, April 10. A telephone message
received today from Capt. Arthur Crowley,
now at the scene of stranded sch. Geo. P.
Hudson, near Shinnecock, L. l., states the
vessel lies in favorable position for floating
and that wreckers will commence operations
today. Capt. Crowley states that the sch.
has about five feet of water in her hold, but
pumps can easily free her. Wreckers have
laid cables and expect to heave the vessels
bow from the beach this afternoon. The
Geo. r. Hudson was valued at 100000; un-
insured.

John B. Lovett, native and lifelong res
ideut of Lincolnville, died March 7th, after
a few months illness. He was born Aug.
8, 1885, on the farm which had since been his
home and was the son of Richard NJ. and
Sarah (MillikeM Lovett. He married Mary
A. Smith of LincolnvilIe and to them were
born five children, only two Of whom, Liz
zie and Lucy, survive their father. Mrs.
Lovett passed away about twenty years
ago and Mr.. Lovett later married Mrs. En-
ma Hodges of Lincolnvlle, who survives
him. He also leaves one brother, Charles,
in California, and four sisters, Sarah T..
Dunton of Camden, Mary 3. Dunton of
Boston, Jennie G. Young of West Rockport,
and Lauretta Lovett of Camden. Mr.: Low
ett was an honest and industrious citizen,
obliging neighbor and kind husband and
father, and will be much missed in the COM
munity.
Fred NJ. Richards died April 2nd at his
home in Camden after short illness, aged
SO years. He was the son of the late George
W. and Anna (Howe) Richards, and was
one of three children, two of whom survive
him. For many years he had been in the
employ of the Knox WoOlen Co., as manager
of the finishing and shipping department.
He began working with them in 1869, and
Massachusetts had remained in their en-
ploy up to the time he was taken sick. He
was an ardent worker in the Masonic
bodies, having taken all the degrees up to
the 32nd, and having filed many high
offices in the order. He leaves a wife,
Viola; brother, Everett Richards Of
Brooklne, Mass. sister, Mrs Willard
Howe of Camden and half sister, Mrs.
Josephine Hoffses of Dorchester, Mass.

killed in the Senate The passage of such
a measure would be public misfortune.
The Ladies' Home Journal recently said of
this measure:
"If we were not doing business on the
answer its specious advertisements, s'the
post Office department would stop u.s." A
plausible statement is this. but fallacious
conclusion. Had the government ten times
the optical equipment of Argus it could not
prevent all the petty swindling schemes
which spring into evanescent but fruitful
existence in every corner OF the nation. AS
ninety nine one hundredths OF the periodi-
cal publications refuse to accept any moral
responsibility for publishing even the mean
est and most cruel frauds, protection for
the public lies with the postal authorities.
But the ponderous thumb of the law
descends slowly, and usually upon barren
spot, whence the agile flea has long since
| made his salutary escape. But the "fraud
order" of the post office department-th
cred by the familiar delays of the law. 1t
acts at once, and, when it becomes opera
| tive, profit bearing mail ceases to empty
| silly dollars into the pockets of the rOgueS.
Hence there has been devised, in the inter
| estS of these frauds and sWindlerS, a bill to
stop the "fraud- order" activities of the post
| office. Last year this effort was happily
defeated, but this year it appears with
much stronger backing. Every medical
quack, every bunco artist with stock to sell
in an imaginary mine or fictitious railway,
every s'get-rich-quick" artist who vends his
wares through the printed lure, is back of
| this measure. "PrOtectiOn to private inter-
ests" is their cry. Yes, but has the inno-
cent public no right to protection against
| this class of swindlers? One thing should
be clearly understood, that the passage of
| the anti-fraud order bill means to a particu-
larry skilful species of swindler license to
operate through the mails.

CleVolauu D10I Was tdhou OoAOAc VIC po-
lice Court April 18th on three charges of
violating the prohibitory law, two of which
were single sales and the other being COM
mon seller of Intoxicating liquors. Judge
Rogers sentenced Dyer to pay fine of $50
and costs and to serve 30 days in Jail for
each of the single sales, from which an ap-
peal was taken to the Supreme Court.
Probable cause was found to hold the re-
spondent for the Grand Jury in the other
case. Bonds in the sum of $500 were
furnished for the respondents appearance
at the next term of Court for the three
cases. Mr.. Dyer is a young man who lives
near the Cottrell Mill in East Belfast and it
is said that he has frequently sold liquor to
some laborers who worked at this mill dur
ing the winter The above cases are the
result of evidence secured by the sheriff's
department.

On the face of the returns Mr..
Mays is elected Congressman ia
lthls, the Third, Congressional
district. His majority Is small,
something like go votes. Mr..
Kehoe is not satisfied and has
given notice of contest to be
heard by the Congressional
committee when it meets in
Tallahassee to-day to canvass
the vote aud declare the result.
In Madison county he charges
fraud in several precincts. We
believe no fraud has been com
mitted. We acknowledge a
few slight Irregularities such as
permitting unregistered voters
20 cast their ballot-probably a
dozen in the entire county. And
liz is upon such as this that Mr.,
Kehoe bases his contest, Like

Mr.. Kehoe is grasping at every

assert that should Mr.. Kehoe
succeed in upsettiug the will OF

clared the nominee for Congress.

empty honor. We believe the

We venture to assert that in
scarcely a single precinct in the
entire State ofFlorida was there
lacking some triaiug irregular
ity in the conduct of the recent
primary. It's almost impossible
to conduct a primary election
according to the strict letter OF
the law. While we admit that
the law should be followed to
the letter we also know that
mankind is prone to error. aud
so long as no gross fraud is
perpetrated the will of the peo-

One of the surprising results
Of that altogether surprising
primary election was the in
glorious defeat of Bob McNamee
as Senator from Hillsboro couu-
ty. BOB has been the doughty
champion of the liquor forces in
the State in the local option
elections in several of the coun
ties, and Hillsboro is supposed
to be the strongest of the liquor
strongholds. Now, while you

excellent advice which we adopt
for the benefit of our own read
ers; "Let all the bitter things
written aud said during the
political campaign be forgotten
or relegated to the past. There
is no use to speculate on the
causes, or what might have
been Accept the results. De
feated candidates can rest as
sured that the law Of compensa
tion obtains in politics as 10 all
departments Of life. Private
life has advantages not to be
overlooked You vii be your

fortunate competitor will earn
every dollar and all the honors
that are in store for him. Those
who shout for him 10 day may
