WILL Be TAKEN TO SHARON
HEARING TO BE GIVEN MRS.
BOYLE NEXT WEEK.
Mr.. Whitla Declares That Prosecu-
ton Has Enough Evidence to Hold
the Woman for Trial.

SHARON. Pa, April "a conference
was held here today between James p.
Whitla, his legal representative. Attorney
Cochran, and Justice of the Peace s. 8.
Gilbert. following which announcement
was made that Mrs. James H. Boyle, one
Of the alleged abductors of Willie Whitla,
would be brought from the Mercer county
Jail to this city for a hearing next Mon
day or Tuesday.
Justice Gilbert announced either day
would suit him, and 1t would also permit
the return Of Mrs. Boyle to Mercer In
time for the meeting of the grand jury
there on the following Monday, April 10.
Mr.. Whitla and his family returned
from Atlantic City late yesterday. Mr.
Whitla took the opportunity today to
again deny that Mrs. Boyle Is either re-
lated to him or to any of the members of
his family. He declared he did not know
who she was, that his attorneys had been
unable to obtain anything additional as to
her personal history. but that 1t was his
intention to go through with the prosecu-
tion of both Mr.. and Mrs. Boyle in a
thorough manner.
He said the prosecution had sufficient
evidence to have the woman held for court
and that when the case came to trial
more evidence would be forthcoming. He
asserted he did not have the slightest fear
sylvania, as the evidence against her was
such that anything else than conviction
would be impossible.
At the Mercer Jail today Mrs. Boyle said
she did not care whether or not she was
taken to Sharon for a hearing.

CHARGE RACE DISCRIMINATION
Negroes Plead for Equal Rights In
Railroad Accommodations.


The interstate commerce commission Is

complaint of Wesley J. Gaines, H. M.

W. hampton. bishops Of the African
Methodist Episcopal Church. against the
Searboard Air Line and its receivers, the
Richmond Fredericksburg and Potomac
and Southern railway companies, the
Central of Georgia Railway Company
and the Pullman company for alleged dis
elimination against them and others of
their race in the matter Of Pullman car
accommodations.
The petition of the compliments al
leges that the passenger coaches furnish
ed for the transportation of colored pas
sengers are not of the f1rst-class quality
or description as those furnished white
passengers: that they are compartment
cars partitioned by swinging doors and
usually crowded with passengers of every
description. who smoke, drink and curse
In the matter OF sleeping car accommo-
dations, it is alleged that the defendants
refuse to sell tickets to colored passen-
Eers: that those who succeed in getting
tickets are denied the right to occupy the
berths called for in them and that such
treatment results in inequality of treat
ment of white and colored passengers.
The complaint also extends to the re-
fusal of the defendant companies to fur
nish dining car accommodations to cOlored
passengers. 1t is contended that these
practices are violative of the act to regu-
late commerce. and relief is asked.
The case has excited wide interest be-
cause of the novel method of seeking to
enforce the concession of civil rights
through the machinery of the interstate
commerce commission.

BEE sTINGs FOR RHEUMATISM.
Poison Acts as an Antidote to Com

from the Boston transcript.
The remedies of our grandmothers. that
used TO be the family reliance in the days
when it was not considered necessary to
call the doctor for the treatment o. every
trihing ailment. have not, as a ru e, been
accorded large respect in the various sys-
TENS of pathological progress. But there
are exceptions. There are many old fash
toned people who have strong faith In
the efficacy of the sting of honey bees for
the cure. or at least relief of rheumat sm
Perhaps one reason why this remedy has
not been more generally employed is be-
cause of It's hero.c quality. 1t is sharp
ana painful med1cament. and the afflicted
shrink from ii as much as do many with
the toothache when they reach the dem
fists door. preferring the ills they have
to those which their imaginations mag
Nifty.
But young surgeon at Roosevelt Hos
pita1. New York city, is inclined to regard
this belief, that was impressed upon him
when boy, as something more than a
superstition. Under his charge are many
rheumatic patients, and mindful of his
early experience he arranged with his
mother. at Stockbridge, Mass. to send
him hundred vigorous honey bees each
week. The first instaliments have been
put promptly at work. and do not seem
Inclined to shrk their responsibility The
theory is that the peculiar poison of the
bees acts as a counter-irritant or an anti
dote TO the uric acid that produces rheu-
matism. The method of application is to
put few bees in a glass. invert the glass
over the affected limb and let the insects
do the rest The patient is watched very
closely and the treatment renewed daily.
While the experiment has not yet been
carried far enough to proclaim il as a
new discovery, or a scientific adaptation
Of very old one, the results have been
very satisfactory. as far as they have
gone. Some of the worst cases were
selected for the test. and steady relief has
followed the application OF this natural
surgery. II is claimed that people who
keep bees and are on intimate terms with
them seldom are troubled with til $ pain
full malady. The honey bee, in spite of a
somewhat resentful disposition. has neen
cherished a. a purveyor of nectar and an
example OF industry. but If its sharp touch
also carries healing for one of the most
painful of our diseases II will have a
new claim upon our regard and gratitude.

FORTY YEARS AT ONE. DESK
ARTHUR E. MILEY'S RECORD AS
CLERK.
For Forty-Four Years in Continuous
Service in the Post Office
Auditors Office.

Continuous service as an official in the
Office of the auditor for the Post Office
Department for a period Of forty-four
years, and working at the same desk for
forty years, is part Of the official record
of Arthur E. Miley. His personal record
of a long line of ardent friends made and
a succession of acts Of good fellowship
scattered along the way is equally cred
it BILE to the veteran government clerk.
Therefore. yesterday Mr.. Miley. while
celebrating in quiet way his eightieth
birthday. reverted to his long service to
the government and related to his init
mates "reminiscences that are bright spots
along his path of life.
He was the recipient Of many congratu-
lations from his fellow clerks. with a
goodly consignment of flowers. In addi-
ton to all this the following letter was
sent to him by the auditor. M. o. Chance.
which speaks for itself, and which he
greatly appreciates:
My Dear Mr.. Miley: L wish to extend
my hearty congratulations to you on this
your eightieth birthday. Yours has been
a remarkable record I'm the government
service. Your record shows that you
have been in the auditors office almost

forty-four years. and I am advised that
you have been at work on the same desk
for forty years. l notice In looking over
your record for the past ten years that
you have not taken excess leave with the
exception of three days in 1902, and in
some cases that you did not use the full
thirty days leave.
Your record is in every way one to be
proud of, and one which 1 wish many Of
the younger clerks would profit by"
Mr.. Miley is an Ohio veteran of the civil
war and served in the western army, was
as good a soldier as he is clerk. and his
many friends wish for him a continuance
for many years to come of the exception
ally good health and activity which he at
present enjoys. He was appointed in the
office of the auditor for the Post Office
Department August Z. 1868. at a salary of
81 ECO per annum.. On May ID. 1866. he
was promoted to $1.4OO. and on June J.,
1869. to $1,000 per annum.
He walks downstairs from the seventh
floor of the post Office building every day.
Only once in the last nine years has he
taken over thirty days leave, and then
only an excess Of three days.
