BEATTIYs CHILD uNNAMEp.

Son Of Murderer Is
With Maternal Grandparents.

DOVER, Del. Nov. 24-The infant
son Of Henry Clay Beattie, Jr., now six
months old. is with its grandparents,
Mr.. and Mrs. r. V. Owen. Of this city.
The child is reported to be thriving.
but because of the notoriety Of the
case has not yet been named Prior
to the murder of its mother it was
intended to call it after its father.
This, however, will not be done When
the maternal grandfather was asked
what he and his wife called the child.
he replied. 1--WE merely call the little
fellow baby" He would not say
when the christening will take place.
The grandfather said:
eve have often discussed the future
of the little one. the child Of our
daughter. The possibility of some one
telling him about his father has given
us no little concern. However, there
is no remedy. My wife is caring for
him as only a loving grandmother
can, and she will continue to do So
Of course"

Meanwhile the body of the murder
ed girl-wife was buried from the
church where a short year before she
had been married to Henry Clay
Beattie.
On the Friday following, Coroner
Loving began she inquest into the
death of Mrs. Beattie. On the stand,

lawyer. Harry NJ. Smith, Jr. declined
to answer any question relating o
his intimacy with Beulah Binford.

Henry's cousin had confessed to the
Richmond police that on the Satur-
day prior TO the killing he had bought
a single barrel shotgun for his cousin
and had turned it over TO him, with
three z tridges. Paul later indent-
fed the gun found on the Midlothian
Turnpike as the gun he gave his cou-
sin.
The inquest adjourned at noon

the stories told by Henry Beattie, his
unfaithfuluess TO his wife, and the
story of his cousin Paul were the
foundation upon which the state
rea.ed its case. The father. sister
and friends Of Beattie took the stand
In a vain effort to establish for him
a reputation that would convince the
twelve Chesterfield county farmers

incapable of the crime charged
against him.

the star witness for the prosecution,
and little seventeen-year-old Beulah
Blnford, sweetheart OF the prisoner
were kept in Henrico County Jail.
Panl was on the stand for two days
but the seventeen-year-old girl was
never taken to Chesterfield court
house to tell her story. She had been
summoned as witness by the pro-
secution. but the shrewd lawyers be-
lieved that her attachment for Henry
Beattie would make her an undeslr-
able witness, and she was never
placed on the stand.
In her stead her mother, a big.
middle-aged woman, told the story OF
her daughters relations with Henry
Beattie; his love for the girl and
his renewal OF their intimacy after
his marriage. After three weeks OF
taking testimony and argument, the
twelve Chesterfield county farmers re-
tired one evening 10 the jury room

guidance. discussed the evidence

into the court room with a verdict Of

OLD PEOPLES HOME FAILS

A ''home for old people" recently
became bankrupt in Detroit. and
many inmates who had paid into It
every dollar they had in the world,
expecting to be assured Of COM
Portable old age, were thrown on
charity.
We say that every institution or
this nature ought to be under super
vision of the state so such things
could not happen. II is the duty or
the young and strong to safeguard
the welfare of the old and feeble.
Their health and vigor, for example
should be kept up as much as possi-

purpose as Vinol, our delicious cod
liver and iron preparation without
oil. Miss A. II. Ralston OF Mt Ver-

think Vinol is excellent and especi-
ally for an old person. A condition
of general debility which had lasted
for months yielded promptly to Vinol
and this gives me the fullest conf
dence in it."
vinol is not only pleasant to take
but always agrees with the stomach

Told Different Tales.
Beattie in his stories of the killing
of his wife told widely differing tales.
He was particularly contradictory in
his description Of the man whom he
accused of the shooting. For three
days detectives worked with all
their energy without definite result,
but gathering a mass of circum-

Beattie's son, Henry Clay Beatie III

The coroner's jury, after a brief

of CATARRH.
For Wilmington People

What is Catarrh?
Simply an inflammation of the mucous
membrane.
What causes the inflammation?
The pernicious activity of little germs or
microbes that lodge in the folds and crevces
of the mucous membrane where they increase
and multiply.
How can Catarrh be cured.
Only by killing the germs.
Will medicines taken into the stomach kill
these germs?
No; they can act on the blood and tone up
the system, but they cannot destroy catarrh
germs.
How about sprays and dOuches?
Good as far as they go, but they do not go
far enough. No liquid can reach the lower
throat or lungs, neither can a liquid penetrate
into the folds and crevices of the membrane
where germs secrete themselves.
What will reach and kill catarrh germs?
HYOMEI, a dry, antiseptic air, which when
breathed into the lungs, kills the germs and
soothes and heals the inhamed membrane.
How do you pronounce HyOmei?
High-o-me.
What is HyOmei?
1t is prepared from Australian eucalyptus
and some of the Listerian antiseptics.
How do you breathe Hyome?
Through a small, hard rubber inhaler that
can be carried in the vest pocket.
Is there any other way to breathe HyOmei?
Yes. Do this just before going TO bed
Into bowl three-fourths full of boiling water
pour a teaspoonful of Hyomei cover head
and bowl with towel and breathe the antsep-
tic vapor that arises.

treatment are used faithfully.
Is HyOmei recommended for any other
diseases?
Yes for any disease of the nasal passages
and throat, where inflammation is present.
Is il good for colds?
Yes; especially the vapor treatment, which
often breaks up cold over night Relief
from coughs, sore throat, Group and asthma
comes in a few minutes by breathing Hyomei.
Has it been used with success in catarrhal
deafness?
Yes; the makers have absolute proof which
will be sent on request.
How much does HyOmei cost?
A complete outfit, which contains a hard
rubber inhaler a bottle of liquid and simple
instructions for use costs Sl.00.
How long will the inhaler last?
A lifetime
