Mrs. D. w. Bridges

Under the article The Climax printed
concerning the death of Mrs. d. w.
Bridges, the Lancaster Record has the
following:
The news of the death of Mrs. Brid-
ges came as a great shock to her Ian
caster friends who had not realized the
seriousness of her condition. During
the four years she lived here she made
many devoted friends who fondly cher
ish her memory. She was a faithful
wife, an affectioDate mother, a loyal
friend, and many eyes were dimmed
with tears and many hearts were sad
dened by the realization that the ''sil-
yer cord had been loosened" that bound
her to earth.
''Life's burdens and sorrows are many,
Yet it has none to compare with this
a wife and mother gone,
Who made home haven of bliss.
Eyes ere blind folded with weeping,
Ears hear the discord Of sobs,
But grief rises like incense to Heaven,
And touches the heart of God.
He points to the rainbow of promise,
Bids you look at it through your tears
Whispers peace to your troubled soul,
Calming your anguish and fears.

Gov. McCreary Will Run.

The following political dope ap-
! peared in Sundays Enquirer:
Gov James B. McCreary this week
took off the bride as regards his posi-
tion in the race for the Democratic
nomination forUnited States Senator and
now is telling all of his friends and call
ers that he is a candidate and that he
will make his formal announcement as
soon as the ratification of the seventeenth
amendment to the constitution is pro-
mulgated.
He has selected such time for max
ing his formal announcement because
he has all along held that the amend
ment would be ratified and that the
nomination of the senatorial candidates
would be deferred until August, 1914,
and that the Senator to succeed Senator
William O'Connell Bradley would be
elected by the people in November,
1914, and not by the Grneral Assembly
1914.
1t now can be said with finality that
the Governor is candidate, and there
are good reasons for the prediction that
the race will be between him and former
Governor ]. c. w. Beckham.
While Congressman Augustus Owsley
Stanley is expected TO accept the advice
of his close political friends and stand
for reelection as Representative from
the second Congressional District, he
has made no public announcement of
that intention, and continues in the at
titude of a senatorial Ca andidate.

commodation, except common carriers

of from $40 To 500 and from 10 to 20
days in Jail or both. The Appellate
Court was unanimous in the opinion as
handed down by Judge lansing.
Walker gave Pope 81 to buy quart

nothing for carrying the whisky, not
even as much as drink of it.

 In so0-word letter insisting upon the immediate acceptance of his res ignation, he makes no secret of his retirement at the fact that the admin 1stration disowned his "pet baby" without consulting him, and with such quite unnecessary haste and in so unusual a manner" Also, he puts forth an explanation or an argument for the position taken by the last ad- 1ninistration in the matter of the Chinese loan negotiations, which not only shows clearly that he was in sympathy with that position; but bears unmistakab1e internal evidence that his hand was potent, if not con- trolling, in the formulating of the policy abandoned without his leave. He protests vigorously against the man Sler in which the presidents policy was arrived at, and especially against its having reached him first through the newspapers

Plymouth Mass. March 2U.-Mrs. Jennie May Eaton was locked up in the county jail here late today pending 3, hearing on the charge that she murdered her husband, Rear Admiral Joseph Giles Eaton, by poisoning. The widow was brought here from Hingham, where she was arraigned, following her arrest earlier in the day Through counsel she pleaded not guilty, waived the reading of the com plaint, and was held without bonds for examination on March 28.
 Question of Sanity May Be Determined Meantime the inquest into the sud : den death of the admiral on March 5 may or may not be resumed. This was not determined. 1t was intimated to- brought to trial, and the possible ap . rointment of a commission to pa ;s upon the prisoners sanity was sug- gested.
 District Attorney Barker went to Boston this afternoon and had a con- ference with Chief Justice Aiken of the superior court. It was thought that his errand might be in connection with the convening of a special grand jury to consider the case.
 Retained Her composure.
 When Mrs. Eaton, who is 45 years of age. entered the jail she was dress ed in the black suit that she wore ? her husbands funeral and a mourning veil partially hid her face. She had been weeping but generally maintain ed the compoSure that has character ized her bearing from the first.
 Admiral Eaton died in his bed at the home in Norwell, where he lived with his wife, her mother, Mrs. Georga Harrison, and his stepdaughter, Doro- thy Ainsworth. The death was unex- pected and due, the other members of the family. said, to an attack of indl- sestion which followed a too hearty meal of roast pork
 Evidence of ArsencaI Poisoning. z Circumstances led to an investiga- ton, and according to statement by District Attorney Barker today, evi- dsnee of arsenica1 poisoning was dis covered by Prof. William F. Whitney, stomach. The formal report of Pro lessor Whitney has not been made and the arrest was ordered upon a verbal communication to the district attor- ney.
 For ten days the authorities have known that the admiral died Of arsen1c poisoning, and their efforts have been directed to finding where and by whom the poison was obtained and to laying bare the home life of the Eaton fam fly.
 Home Life Not Always Happy.
 In the quest they have not been suc- cessful, the district attorney said Along the second line of inquiry wealth or evidence HaS been IuTnlSIe1 by friends of the family and neigh bors. The picture was not an alto gether pleasant one. The admiral and his wife, who was 20 years his junior, did not always agree, it was said. re- garding those who should be received at their home.
 Both had been married before. The admirafs first wife was Mary Anne Varnum, whom he married at Dracut ir 1871, when he was a. lieutenant in the navy. His body was buried beside that of his first wife. From his grad nation at Annapolis until his retire ment with the rank of rear admiral in 1905 the life of the naval officer was filed with honors and he acquired a fortune.

aerIin,s PoIice paas.

Police dogs have not justified the ex- travagant claims that were made for them when they were introduced into the German police service. They form a valuable adjunct to the service of detection Of criminals, but they have distinct limitations, and their mute testimony cannot be implicitly credited.
 These limitations have been recent 1y admitted by police officers in charge of the training of the dogs. The sen tence of an alleged murderer was re- duced from life to ten years imprison- ment at 8 recent retriaI in Frankfort on-the-Oder, owing to the testimony of a Berlin police lieutenant discredit- ing police dogs which had followed the man from the scene of the murder, and now comes Lieutenant Most, in charge of the police dog training institute for Berlin, with the statment that the anil mals are absolutely dependable only as defenders of the officer with whom they are working.
 The best of dogs, declares Ideuten- ant Most, is likely to abandon crimi- naTs trail for the fresher trail of some third person crossing it. The animals scent depends also in no small degree on his mood and condition of health.
 The likelihood of police dogs failing when put to the most important tests Is, of course, serious limitation of their usefulness. Despite this, how ever, they will continue to form a val uable arm of the criminal service.-Ex- change.

Hartford, Conn, March 2o-The democratic majority in the senate to- day took issue with Governor Baldwin today declaring in caucus that it would not confirm William H. Corbin as tax commissioner.
