STOP CATARRH.
Unless Properly Treated With Hy-
omei This Disease May
Become Serious.

If you have catarrh, indicated by
shifting, stopped uphead, droppings
in the throat and morning choking,
there is an irritated state of the mu-
cous membrane which affords an j.
deal condition for the growth of dis
ease germs.
Do not allow these dangerous
germs to begin the destruction of
your health.
The easiest, simplest, quickest,
surest and cheapest way to check
catarrh is by breathing Hyomei.
This wonderful medicated air treat
ment does not upset the stomach,
but is breathed in through the Hy-
omei inhaler, directly following and
surely destroying all disease germs
that may have been inhaled-the
tissues of the throat, nose and lungs
are quickly healed and vitalized.
Money refunded by w. L. Cove
& Co. to anyone whom Hyomei
fails to benefit. A complete outfit
costs but $1.0O. . .-s..'"

WHITE SLAVE STORY
HAS Been EXPLODED

Hide ESCapade

United States District Attorney Rob-
ert T. Whitehouse branded as IN
founded the story of Miss Lois Piper
the young Fairfield, Me-, school
teacher, who said she was abducted
by white slavers and taken to Boston.

hide an escapade of herself and Harry
K. Keene of Fairfield, according to
the district attorney, who had an in
vestigation of the young woman's story
made by an expert on white slave
cases.
The district attorney said that in
view of the fact that wide publicity
had been given to the young woman's
story that she had been abducted by
white slave conspirators in violation
of the Mann act he felt it his duty to
get at the truth and let the public
know it.

Old people, to overcome the weakening,
facilitating effects of increasing old age,
often make very sad mistake in using So
called remedies" that contain alcohol and
dangerous or habit-forming drugs. Often
this stuff, because it livens and brightens
them up little just after taking a dose,
leads them to imagine that it is doing them
good, when it isn't Remedies that rely for
their sale on such deceit, do harm, because
the false excitement of the nerves and heart
leaves them worse than they were before

Brother With Shotgun
FIRES OVER MOTHERS HEAD

Tragedy Witnessed by Two Nieces o.
the Men and They Give the Alarm
Murderer Captured In Providence
and Confesses His crime-Had Beer
Upbraided by Brother
Before the eyes of his two nieces and
firing over the head of his aged
mother, Edward G. Manchester, while
IN drunken frenzy, shot and killed
his brother, Frank w. Manchester,
with a double barrelled shotgun at the
Manchester homestead in North Dart
mouth, Mass.
Immediately after the shooting Man.
chester filled his pockets with all the
ammunition in the house and with his
gun escaped into the dense woods in
the vicinity of the farm.
AS soon as the news of the tragedy
reached this city, squad of New
Bedford police, under Deputy Chief
John G. Parker, was rushed to the
scene in autos. The police, assisted
by the four town constables of Dart
mouth, took up the trail of the slayer.
After a posse had secured the coun-
try for miles around, the man was
arrested at Providence.
Manchester has a bad record. The
New Bedford police have arrested him
fourteen times in recent years for
drunkenness, assault and a variety OF
oh 10 i- ha
man of Dartmouth" He has several
relatives who are mental delinquents.
The tragedy occurred when Edward
e. Manchester returned in a drunken
condition after a debauch in New Bed
ford, to the Manchester farm in South
Dartmouth. Both brothers are farm
ers and lived together. In the room
at the time of the shooting were Effie
and Emma Penworthy, nieces of the
Manchester brothers, and Mrs. Man
chester, their mother. Mrs Manches-
ter is over 80 years of age, and in such
a feeble condition that. she was un-
aware of what was taking place.
Edward Manchester entered the kit
chen and was upbraided for his condi-
ton by Frank Manchester. The two
brothers grappled. Frank managed to
get the better of Edward and threw
him to the floor, when Edward prom
ised to do better If Frank would let
him up. Frank allowed his brother to
rise on the promise to reform.
After he had regained his feet Ed
ward stepped over to the corner. He
picked up his tweve-g uage shotgun,
which was leaning against the wall |
and, getting behind his mother, fired |
both barrels over her head directly at /
Frank, who received both charges.
The shells we're loaded with buckshot
and Frank died instantly.
The two nieces, who had witnessed
the shooting, nearly tainted. AS soon
as they regained control of them
they ran to the adjoining farm
Of Thomas Ryder and gave the alarm.
The Ryders Immediately telephoned

TRY To SMUCCLE
TWO CHINAMEN
immigration Men Accuse JAP
anoSG Of Serious Crime
ARRESTED BY INSPECTORS

Officers Become Suspicious When In
terpretor Has Difficulty In Making
Men Understand-Were Equipped
With Passports and Claimed to Be
Japanese Students
One of the cleverest plots to snug
that ever came to light was nipped in
the bud by immigration officials at
Boston when two cabin passengers on
the steamship Hamburg of the Ham
burg American line, who were travel
ing as Japanese students, broke down
and confessed that their real names
are Moy Sam and Louis Wing.
Their companion, Takaui Maru-
TAM, a bone fide Japanese, was held
by the federal inspectors and he will
be charged with attempting to land
aliens illegally.
The pair Of Japanese" figured on
the liners passenger list as Tadao
manure and Tone Kobayashi. They
We're provided with passports, APP
parently regular, which had been is
sued in Japan. But the suspicious of
Inspectors William West and Ferri
Weiss aroused both by the appearance
Of the students" and by the fact that
Marutani, upon acting as interpreter,
had the greatest difficulty in making
his alleged compatriots understand
what he said to them.
When Marutani was questioned by
Inspector Weiss, he declared that the
two men had spent year attending
private school in England. AS they
were unable to speak half a dozen
words in English, this also showed
something was wrong. All were de-
tanned for hearing before a board of
special inquiry, when the Cinnamon
admitted their identity to Shere Foo
Moy, the Chinese interpreter of the
service.
Many hours were spent by Deputy
Commissioner ]. j. Hur-
ley investigating the case, and while
he would not tell that he had evidence
to show that others in this country
are involved in the plot, more de-
are expected.
Marutani told the inspector that he
was a passenger on the steamship
Cymric of the White Star line, arriv-
ing in Boston in October, 1912. This
was verified by the records at the i'm
migration station. On that occasion
there were three other Japanese with
him.
1t is not believed by any person con-
nected with the immigration service
that Marutani has told the half about |
himself that he is able to. When |
'grilled" by Deputy Commissioner |
he pretended frequently to
nave little knowledge of English, es-
Decially when any searching question
was put to him. But at other times |
re answered easily.
They will be held at the Long wharf |
station to act as wit
lesses in the court proceedings against
Narutani.
The penalty attached to the SNUG
Cling of Cinnamon into the country is
evere. At least $1,000 fine and a term
If Imprisonment may be imposed, or
10Th, at the discretion of the court.
