thirty year sentence imposed on
F'olke Il. Brandt, the former Schiff
valet, will not be decided for few
days.
The justice said that he had read
the mayors letter carefully but had
not decided whether he would official
ly recognize it.
Il am sorry that Mayor Gaynor did
not more fully familiarize himself
with the facts in connection with my
decision, said Gerard. However, ]
shall hold the entire matter in abey-
ance for the present"
1t was understood that Gerard plan
ned to discuss the mayors letter with
a number of his colleagues and that
he would govern himself by their adj
vice. The mayors voluntary action
in writing the governor public
criticism of supreme court justice,
and then permitting the publication of
the letter, has added a decidedly serl-
Jus complication In the Brandt case.
He himself was for many years a SUI.
preme court justice and 1t is argued
was perfectly familiar with the rules
of contempt. 1t was reported that
Gerard would be advised to demand a
public apology from the mayor or.
failing In that, to punish him for con-
tempt.
The question Of whether Governor
Dix is not also In contempt for as
senting to the publication of the let.
ter was also raised today and this
was also expected to be subject of
the conference between Gerard and
his fellow Justices.
Argument on the motion to incor.
porate in the papers in the Brandt
case the affidavit of Howard s. Cans,
Schiff's lawyer, denying that he was
party to the "railroading" of Brandt
was postponed by Justice Gerard un
til this afternoon.

Aged Woman Was Afraid That She

Grave.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. I
NEW YORK, Mar. 5--Althoush she
had $3.50 in savings banle, Margaret
Murphy, more than so, starved her
self to death because she feared a
pauper burial. She came here from
Ireland several years ago with several
hundred dollars. 1t went, little by
little, as the old woman was unable to
work very much to earn money to buy
food. The constant drain on her funds
brought home to her the realization
that when it was gone, she would
have to depend on charity. To init
mates in the tenement where she liy-
ed, she expressed the fear OF not be-
ing properly buried. Lately she had
become very feeble and early today
she was found unconscious In her
room without food or fuel. She died
en- route to the hospital. In her bos-
ON was found her bank book. There
still remained to her credit $3.50 and
she will be buried in consecrated
ground.

WOMAN'S MOST
SUCCESSFUL
MEDICINE
Known All Over The World
known Only For The
Good It Has Done.

We know of no other medicine which
has been so successful in relieving the
suffering of women, or received so many
genuine testimonials, as has Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
In nearly every community you will
find women who have been restored to
health by this famous medicine. Almost
every woman you meet knows of the
great good it has been doing among
suffering women for the past so years.
In the Pinkham Laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, are files containing hundreds of
thousands of letters from women seek
ing health, in which many openly state
over their own signatures that they have
regained their health by taking Lydia
e. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
many of whom state that it has saved
them from surgical operations.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound is made from roots and herbs,
and is perfectly harmless.
The reason why it is SO successful is
because it contains ingredients which act
directly upon the female organism, re-
storing it to healthy and normal activity.
