4 FORTUNE
 BUT DIED 4 PAUPER
Stella Shell Passes Away After Tasting
 Dregs of Bitter Cup.

Inheriting a fortune of $20,000 two years ago when her mother died. Stella Shell died pauper at the Sisters hos pital yesterday morning of cOnsump- ton. Inveigled into marriage with an Italian who claimed a title. less than six months after her mother breathed her last, she saw her fortune taken from her. She was deserted and left penniless just as she was about to be- come a mother Five months ago she came to Phoenix and failing to secure employment as a stenographer, she drifted to the underworld.
 Once in the five months she made an effort, alone and unassisted, to rise from the depths and once more walk the path of virtue. She left the tender loin and secured a position with a small local establishment as stenogra- pher. She was to be paid $6 per week for her work, barely enough to feed and clothe her. She drifted back to the old life and old surroundings.
 For weeks it had been apparent to those who befriended her that death was grimly pursuing her, and her women associates did all in their power to make her end as comfort able as possible And then when it was seen that but few days must take her away, she was sent to the Sisters hospital, where she was given every care and attention within the power of the good sisters and nurses of that institution.
 On admission at the hospital she had given the name of Stella Sheldon and refused to tell further of herself. But Wednesday, with the chill of death al ready creeping upon her, she called for a sister and to her told what is believed to be the real story of her life. She had once been a faithful member of the Catholic church and at the last pro- fessed a desire for the services of a priest She died with the smile of con- tentment that comes to those who be- lieve that all will be well.
 Scarcely 20 years old. a decidedly pretty girl. of no small ability and at tainments, she was lured by the glare and glitter of wine and pretty clothes. when she thought a cold world had turned it's back upon her. With much before her that was bright, she took the downward course which ends as did her life.
 The body has been taken to the un- dertaking rooms of Mohn & Driscoll. where the funeral will likely be held. A subscription paper is being circulat- ed among her former Associates and it is supposed that everything that can be done for one departed will be done for her Tn life they were kind to her and in death they are not unmind- ful. lDSyi \ xf10a1

culties with which the team. had tO
 contend at the shoot and giving some
 of the individual scores made. He stated that in the National Rifle as sociation matches members of the Arizona team won $65 in prizes. This was the first time they had ever taken any of the N. R. A. money
 One reason that the Arizona shoot CTS did not make a higher score was
 that the elevations used at Camp Perry were several points higher than those in effect at Camp Huachuca. where the camp had it's preliminary practice. It was some time before the team discovered this change.
 In conclusion the lieutenant strong ly urged the men of B to pay more attention to target practice and asked every individual soldier to at least try for the grade of marksmen
 Sergeant Peterson gave another short talk along the same lines He
 was followed by Sergeant Dan Mas
 sic of Company A. Captain Hill then
 talked tC his men about his plans %

 during October by any man who did
 not try for the Arizona team. He aIso
 plans tJ offer a medal for the best
 drilled man in the company and an-
 other for attendance at drills. IT was
 decided that on some Saturday night
 before the annual encampment the
 two local companies should go into camp near the city and remain in
 camp over Sunday. This will afford
 the new members an opportunity to
 gain some valuable eperience, so that they will not be such green rockies" when they reach AtascaderO.

"I had a doctor for them but he could not help. Then I read of the Cuticura Remedies. As I am a chemist, having served my apprenticeship in Germany, did not have much confidence in them. Yet was soon taught something better, for after used Cuticura Soap. Ointment and Resolvent the first time the children felt very we'll and did no more scratch Ing. Then the eczema became dry and entirely disappeared after about six weeks treatment. This is now more than two years ago and no sign of the trouble has returned, therefore I can recommend the Cuticura Remedies without reserve to all people who are suffering with eczema.

EVENING FARMER
 IN NEW QUARTERS.
Owners Purchase Property at 177 Fairfield Avenue-Win Occupy
 It In the Fall
(From The Telegram,

k (From The Telegram)
 Our esteemed contemporary, the Bridgeport Farmer, announced last evening that they had secured the property at TIT Fairfield avenue, owned by Henry c. Knight, and for merly occupied by the Southern New England Telephone company, for their new home, and would occupy the building, after a number of all The announcement is a surprise, and a very welcome one. The Farmer Publishing company has been in the old Waller building at the corner of Fairfield avenue and Water street so long, through the dust and noise of the lower part of the city, that it must have been a mighty effort on the part of the owners of the paper to divorce themselves from the old home where there finger so many interesting and pleasant memories. However dusty and noisy the old Farmer office has been for the past quarter of a cen- tury, 1t has been the surprise and the wonder of the newspaper world that they managed to get out such a good looking and bright paper every even ing. But then, that is a tradition The old dusty office never interferred work. But customs change. When the Farmer office moves to their new home they will be very close to The Telegram office and, consequently in a neighborhood with less noise and dust. The Telegram extends con- gratulations to it's coming neighbor In its new environment it's columns will not be a whit less bright than they are now.

system of circulation, thereby causing the forces concentrating on the drop sica1 fluid to do a sort of treadmill or endless chain work. Though the particular type of dropsy from which Lemay suffered is very rare-scarce seen in the average hospital practice in a lifetime-the principle is the same In every kind of dropsy, the experts say. and what was done to the Marl- boro man can be accomplished in the case of any ordinary dropsical subject, provided there are no other complicat- ing diseases and the operation is skill fully and perfectly carried through.
 At the time of the operation on Le- may he weighed 130 pounds. The doc tors told him he had but a few weeks to live. So rapid was the accumula- t1on of fluid in his abdomen that he had to be tapped every eight or ten days. A mere shadow Of his former self, in constant pain. unable to sleep or eat, he submitted to the surgeon s knife as a forlorn hope. Eleven weeks after the operation the man was walk ing the streets. Today he weighs 190 pounds and is almost as active as be- fore his illness. The only visible evil dence of dropsy remaining in his whole body is a slight swelling in the left leg, but this is gradually disappearing
 Lemay sleeps and eats as well as ever in his life. and feels no pain what ever, he says. His heart and other vital organs, which were pushed three inches to the left by the pressure of the dropsical fluid. have again resum- ed their normal positions

GETTING RID OF HAwLEY

Some Republican leaders who, for fear of falling asleep and sliding off,
 thoughtfully had themselves spiked to their own Jobs, are now trying to per suade Sheriff Hawley that he ought to remove the cement foundations and
 take out the anchor bolts which for fifteen long years have held him to his own job in such passionate em- brace as to make Abelard and Heloise a joke and Romeo and Juliet scarcely selling platers. Such separation would be heartbreaking. The good of the party is not a reason, at least 1t is not sufficient reason for terminating a union so passionate, so enduring and SO profitable. But why is Hon. William H. Marigold getting out grappling irons and putting glue on his hands? Be of good cheer. If Hawley comes out he will have to be blasted out. But Marigold would not have to be blasted in. A little push would do it. He might even consent to fall in without being pushed at all.

THE BIGGEST SHIP,
Kaiser Sees Plans of Vessel to be Built by Hamburg Amer
 ican Line.

Hamburg. June 29-Arriving here from Potsdam, Emperor William lunches with Albert Ballin, director general of the Hamburg-American Steamship Line, and Marine Construc- tor Mewes, who explained to the Em- peror the plans of the new steamer which the company has decided to build immediately
 This will be the largest steamship in the world. having a length between perpendiculars of S76 feet and a breadth of S5 1-2 feet From keel to upper deck she will measure GA feet. She will have a speed of 22 knots, and will be twice the tonnage of the Kali serin Auguste Victoria.
 The Emperor showed great interest in the detailed plans of the vessel, which were shown in views by the stereopticon. Later he presented to Herr Rallin a bronze bust of himself

CONGRESS STREET WIDENING


 The Common Council did well, last night, not to deliver it's final judg- ment relative to the Congress street widening, upon the heels of the hear ing. Yet it cannot be said that the evidence produced at the hearing ad- ded anything to the general fund of information upon the subject. Un- doubtedly the proposed improve ment would be of great ben eft to the trolley company. But it has not been made at all clear that the general public will be much help cd by it. It is pretty well settled that the bulk of travel. both by vehicle and on foot, goes by Middle street and does not pass through Congress street Golden Hill street was widened at great expense upon the theory that be facilitated. But it is notorious that the street is little used by ped estrians, or teamsters. It has been beautified. and it is more conven- tent for trolley cars, but whether. af- ter all. the city was justified in spend ing very large amount of the tax payers money under these circum- stances may be doubted.
 Where the demands of trolley car service require the widening of a street the demand should come direct ly from the trolley company and the law should be so that the company might be assessed benefits proportion ate to the value it would receive by the improvement.
 Tn the present case three-fourths of the benefit of widening the street would go to the trolley company. If the company would pay three-fourths of the cost of the work the way would be simple.

REVENUE MEN
 GET HUNDRED
Many in New Haven Have Care lessly Violated the Laws, as
 Labels Are Not Destroyed

New Haven, June 29-A squad of secret service men, special detectives from the U. s. Internal Revenue de- this city day or two ago and pro- ceeded to corral the liquor retailers, the rectifiers and the druggists who have failed to comply with that pro- vision of the United States law which beer, cigar and whiskey packages shall be destroyed forthwith. If these stamps are not destroyed, even though they may be cancelled, the government holds that they consti- tute menace to the collection of In- they may be collected and made use of again, for the purpose of defraud- ing the government of the tax
 The penalty for the non-destruction of these stamps is $100 fine and a years imprisonment.
 In Providence over 800 dealers have just been apprehended for failure to comply with this law and in this city 1t was said last night that a hundred or more of dealers had been arrested for the violation of this rule They had thrown the stamps aside instead of destroying them.
 In consequence of the violation Of this law the offenders here, are thrown on the Mercy of the Revenue Office As it is known that they have all erred through carelessness, it Is said that the local officials recommended the imposition of a s fine for each stamp which had not been destroyed in each case. It was said that over $500 in local fines have been collect ed from this source alone.
 The special liquor tax from dealers for the ensuing year is now being col lected at the Internal revenue offices. The New Haven district, which also covers Fairfield County, will probably take in $65,000 alone, on this score, this year, the year ending on June 30. There was a heavy rush at the local Internal revenue office yesterday. to pay this tax.
