WILEY MISSED CAR
This Little Incident Led to
Serious Complications
For Richmond Negro.
NOW IN DAYTON LOOKUP

Now if Wiley Oakley had only caught
the right car for Richmond-but he
didn't hence this story.
The Dayton News says Wiley. who
is a colored resident Of this city. had
been spending the day in the western
metropolis of Ohio and having a good
time. Among other things purchased
was d liberal supply OF Ohio booze.
Oakley believed i time to be starting
for Richmond. II the distance he
saw an interurban that he believed was
homeward bound. After a sprint that
exhausted the EthiOp. and a prodigious
jump he landed on the lower step OF
the car. But the conductor shook his
head and informed Oakley he was not
destined for Richmond if he remained
on that car.
Wiley was nonplussed and hunted
up a policeman. He inquired for Il
car to Richmond. but hat particular
bluecoat had not had much to do that
day and he needed a record. Oakley
was not told how to get to Richmond,
but instead was escorted TO the lookup
and charged with drunk. He was
fined 50.

Philadelphia, Jan. 23.--Asserting that
J. Clayton Erb owned $4,000 interest
in the country home Red Cables -
where he was killed last October, Mrs.
Florence M. Erb, who recently was &C.
quilted of his murder, has begun suit
in Media to compel George l. Horwitz
OF this city, personal counsel for Erb
to acknowledge her dover rights.
Judge Johnson filed a decree ordering
Horwitz to make answer to the bill in
fifteen days.
The purport of the bill which was
filed in equity, was that on April %,
1906. John B. Rhodes and wife con-
yeyed to Joseph Schultzback of this
city straw man the property for
the purpose of having him create a
mortgage of $500 on it. The follow
ing day subject to the mortgage it
was conveyed to c. Edwin Hunter who
held the premises in trust for 81 On
January II. 1909 the property was con-
veyed to Horwitz subject to the mort
gage, for s..
In the petition the court is asked to
decree that Horwitz holds one-half the
property in trust for Mrs. Erb, and al
so one-half the rentals and income
from it. The records and conveyances
have been made and recorded accord
ing to law.

BRIDE OF 70 KEEPS HER
SECRET FOR SIX WEEKS
Cleveland Woman MARI 7s-Yea~
Old Pittsburg Mine Owner.

Middletown, \. ". Jan. 23.- The
murder of Finizio Gaetano and Scan
Ion Carminia and the abduction of
Mrs. Faetano, a bride of two weeks.
has been partly cleared up by the
statements of Mrs. Gaetano. who was
found in a box car along the Erie
Railroad. four miles from this CITY,
The motive for the double murder
was robbery.
According to the story of Mrs. Gaze
tano. she, her husband and cousin ar
rived from Italy on Monday. Tues
day night, when they arrived in Mid
dletown. three of their fellow-country-
men met them and were very friend
ly. Instead of taking them to a ho-
tel. however. the guides" took them
about two miles out of the city and
shot down Gaetano and Carminio
Carminio was instantly killed. but
Gaetano managed to drag himself to
a farm house and died this morning.
The assassins ill-treated the wom-
an, made her walk five miles and kept
rer prisoner in the box car. They
tore off her wedding and engagement
rings and gold chain she wore and
left her. She was found later by 3
railroad man.

Foul Breath
Made Pure and Sweet by the Use of
Stuart's Charcoal Lozen9es.
Trial Package Sent Free.

Do not go among your friends with
breath 50 odious as TO make your
presence distasteful. Foul breath is
capable of easy removal il you will
take a little time to overcome it. Gen
orally foul brea,n come from one Of
two causes. IMPURE gases or foul d.
gestive fluids.
Charcoal is the strongest absorbent
of foul gases known. II positively at
tracts possoEs and neutralizes their ev-
Il effects,
A noted French physician swallowed
strychnine enough to kill rhree men
and with teaspoonful OF charcoal re-
moved the bad effects Of this terribly
swift poison.
A little charcoal in a bed room or
cellar will make foul air pure. Pure
willow charcoal mixed with honey are
the component parts of Stuart's Char
coal Lozenses and pure breath is the
result of their use after meals. Simply
dissolve two o" three after meals and
at bed time and foul breath fees at
once. No matter how YOU cause these
gases. whether by bad food alcohol or
abuse OF the stomach Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges will stop gas making and
sweeten the breath.
They are perfectly harmless and the
eating Of a box would cause you no
Inconvenience whatever
Charcoal is hard to prepare for the
stomach because it must be strong and
pure and most people will not take it
unless made palatabIe. StuaTt's inim-
liable process presents charcoal to the
taste ard system in all the nicely de-
sired.
Choice virgin willow is burnt into
desirable charcoal; this is mixed with
pure honey and the combination is
compressed under tremendous power
into a lozenee of great pleasantness
and efficiency.
Don't let your bad breath make peo-
pie cross the street to avoid YOU: go
to the nearest drug store and buy a
box of Stuart's Charcoal IoZenges to-
day and eat what you will. Two or
three after the meal will sweeten your
breath at once If you want proof of
this fact send us your name and adj
dress and we will send you a trial
package by mail free. Address F. A.
