While thin ice in spots marked DAN

bold and reckless skaters, disregard to
the warnings given by Nature kills off
thousands who neglect their bronchitis or
asthma, sore throat, coughs or colds.
The congested air-passages with the ir-
ritation produced by incessant coughing
are the best breeding-places for the dead
~ germs Of pneumonia and consumption.
Mortality arising from these terrible
diseases is on the increase, and yet they
can be arrested in their early stages
Abbey Syrup, Cloister Sancto Paulo, has

DECLARE BIDDLE
OF UNSOUND MIND
Victim Of Gas and Drug Now
an Inmate Of Farm
hurst Asylum

Walter e. Biddle, who, with Lemuel
Butler was found unconscious in a
room in the Bulls Head Hotel here on
February Is, was legally declared of
unsound mind by a sheriff's jury to-
day Biddle is now at Farnhurst, and
Butler is in his grave, death having
come to him after a period of uncon-
sciousness which lasted two weeks.
The tragic ending of the pleasure
trip taken by Biddle and Butler is
without a parallel in the State. When
the men left their homes at Bear sta
ton, on February 13. each was in the
best of health. They drove to Elkton,
where they met friends. and from that
town came to Wilmington, arriving at
the Bulls Head Hotel on the night OF
February IA. on the following morn
ing the men were found unconscious in
their room. An open gas cock was re-
sponsible, although it was intimated
that, the men had been given drugs be-
fore arriving at the hetel. For two
weeks the victims lay unconscious
Biddle recovered, showing indications
of insanity, but Butler expired. Since
that time Biddle has been at Farm
hurst. To-day DR.. William II. Hanc-
ker told of the mans weak mental
condition, and the jury pronounced
the man insane. His recovery Is PROB
lematical. Mrs Biddle, wife of the un-
fortunate man. attended the inquisi-
ton and was visibly affected. The cou-
ple have three children.
