Brown placed bottle and glass upon
the counter and said: well, l will
give you this drink, but you cannot
have any more, as we are not doing a
credit business" He said he did not
want the drink under that condition,
and that R. R. Brown, son of the de-
ceased, owed him bill Of several dol
lars; that one word brought on an
other, and that finally he (the defend

said he did not care how mad he got.
The deceased then made like retort
and reached under the counter.
The doctor said that he then drew
his gun and backed off few steps,
holding the barrel in the air. Sud-
denly he heard Joe Brown say: Don't
shoot my father" He said he then
turned and saw Joe with a gun level
ed at him, and that a shot rang out
and bullet plowed its way through
his clothing. He then fired at the cid.
er Brown three times, and, turning,
fired twice at Joe Brown. He said
his pistol handle was shot to pieces
in the melee. He said also that
something struck him with awful
force in the stomach, but did not know
what 1t was, as he could find no bullet
He admitted that he had been drink

LETTER OF THE LAW
WROUGHT HARDSHIP
ON AN AGED COUPLE
Were Trying to Join Their Children,
But Cannot Land Because They
Are PenniIess.

New York, Nov. 9.-Ellis Island will
remember the case of Franz Lohn
and his wife, German Hungarians, as
peculiar example of how the limo.
cent letter of the law as applied to
immigrants may work heartrending
hardships. The aged couple have two
daughters living in Passaic, N. j., and
it was their intention to join them
when they journeyed to Hamburg,
Germany, and bought a ticket to
America. But the man who sold
them the ticket put them on a steamer
which landed in Buenos Ayres.
With no funds, they spent year at
hard manual labor on ranch earning
enough for passage to New York. A
week ago they arrived here again pen
niless. The immigration officials said
Immediately they could not land be-
cause they were likely to become pub
lie charges. The pleadings of the two
daughters awaited nothing and the
only question which remained was
should they go back to Argentina or
to Hamburg. The law says specifical-
ly that the line which brings over
an undesirable alien shall take them
back. The daughters offered to pay
the passage to Germany, but the law
was infiexible and the two are now
aboard a steamer sailing back to Ar
gentina.

HINTS FOR BERLIN FRAUs.
HlaDjacl&s and Pumpkin Pies to Be
Made at Exposition Next Year.

FIaDjacLs and Pumpkin Pies TO Be
Made mt Expedition Next Year.
The American woman in all her
glory is to be shown at Berlin's Amer
lean exposition in 1910. Preliminary
arrangements for such an exhibit have
Just been made by Mrs. Norma Knu-
pfel-Lutge, who, despite her Teutonic
name, Is a native-born American, hav-
Ing just left New York to take up her
residence in Berlin, the New York
Times correspondent says She is well
known in a managerial capacity in the
United States through her connection
with important musical enterprises.
The celebrated Leipzig Philharmonic
orchestra, under the conductorship of
Hans Winterstein, toured the country
in 1900 under Mrs. Knupfel-Lutge di-
rection, and Daniel Frohman intrust-
ed Kubelik's first tour of America to
her hands a few years later.
Mrs. Knupfel-Lutge' plan is to ex
hibit feminine America to Germany
from all sides, but particularly in the
home, in order to show that the haus-
frau fiourishes in the United States,
too. She has proposed to transplant
interiors of model dwellings repre-
senting every stratum of Yankee wom-
ankind, from the working woman to
the society queen. Characteristic
American kitchens will be seen in the
act Of turning out such world-famous
specialties as f1apjacks, corned-beef
hash, pumpkin pies and other things
mother used to make.
Special attention will also be be-
slowed on American feminine toggery,
which is so admired by German and
other European women.
The department in short IS to be a
composite Of things which make
American women, in the estimation
Of their husbands, the best housekeep-
ers and the best dressers and, all
around, the best women In the world.
The promoters of the exposition well
come Mrs. Knupfel-Lutge's project en-
Enthusiastically and promise to devote
to the department enough space to
make it one Of the prime attractions
of the show. If the management car
ries out its purpose of having a bevy
of typical Gibson girls recruited from
various sections of this country to pre-
side over the department, the success
of the enterprise is assured beyond the
question of a doubt. Maj. Carson,
chief Of the bureau of manufactures of
the United States department of COM
merce and labor, sends word that the
department is doing it's utmost to in
terest American merchants and manu-
facturers in the Berlin show.

The dreaded disease called pellagra
is common in Northern Italy, in the
south of France, in Spain and in coun-
tries further east in Southern Europe.
1t begins with an eruption on the skin,
which breaks out in spring, continues
till autumn and disappears in winter.
1t affects those parts of the surface
which are always exposed to the sun
and the air The disease is accompa-
MED or preceded by remarkable lassi-
tude, melancholy, moroseness, hypo-
chondriasis and not seldom by suicidal
mania With it's progress and duration
the disorder becomes more aggravated,
with shorter and shorter intervals in
winter At length the surface ceases
to clear itself, and becomes perma-
nently enveloped in a thick, livid, lep-
rous crust, somewhat resembling the
dried and black skin OF fish. By this
time the vital powers are reduced to
very low ebb, and not seldom the in
tellectual functions as well. The vic
tim loses the use Of his limbs, espe-
cially of the palms and soles, torment
ing the victim day and night. To
these severe Affections are often added
strange Authorizations. The disease.
when advanced, takes the form of
many other maladies, such as tetanus.
convulsions, epilepsy, dropsy, mania
and marasmus, the patient being at
last reduced to the appearance of a
mummy 1t is mainly confined to the
poor residing in the country districts,
and is seldom seen in very young chill
dren The cause of the disease is
traced to the eating of altered maize.
in which putrefaction occurs during
the warm season.
