They had no chil- dren, Although he had been drinking heav- ily for some days he was able to attend to duties at the office. He reached home yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock and found a _ friend of the fami- ly, Miss . Minnie Heitzler, visiting his wife. The hushand had ‘but little to when he entered the home. He seemed excited over something, and going into the beck room he sat Gown and read a paper for a few minutes. Instead of responding to the dinner bell he went upstairs, and it was when his wife went up to see if he ‘ould not eat his dinner that the deed was committed. His Strange Condact. When Mrs. Green reached the door lead- ing to the room and asked him to come with her to dinner, he became wild and ex- cited and threw some bedding at her. This strange conduct alarmed his wife, and she thought she would let him remain alone a few minutes, believing he would become quiet. She went Into the room adjoining the one in which her husband was, but had been there but a few minutes before she heard the report of a p'stol. Entering the room in which the shot wes fired Mrs. Green found her husband lying on the bed th a bullet wound in his right temple. Neighbors who were summoned to her sistance called Drs.

Classified advertisements will be received there at regular rates. Miss Ethel T. Camp of this city made her debut as a lecturer Wednesday even- ing at the regular semi-monthly meet- ing of the Unity Club. The members and their friends, to the number of about two hundred, met at “Robinson's,” 1502 14th street northwest. A varied and interesting program was presented. The president, Dr. William A. Jack, occupied the chair and called the meeting to order at 8 o'clock. The program opened with a violin solo by Miss May Louise Farrow, who played “The Flower Song,” and Mrs. Reed sang the “Bedouin Love Song’ (Chadwick), and was compelled to respond to an encore. Dr. Jack then introduced Miss Camp to the audience. In opening she assured her audience that her lecture contained noth- ing of a party nature, nor anything touch- ing upon the question of Dutch or British supremacy in South Africa, which is agi- tating the entire civilized world at the pres- ent time. “It is," she said, “solely upon Wilhelmina of Holland, the beautiful young queen.” She then graphically described the historic incidents attending the birth of the infant who was to play such an important part in the history of her country and the world. Her love and devotion to her mother, Queen Emma, her patriotism and love of her native country even as a child; her love for her subjects, whom she calls her “children,” and her gentle and queenly dignity, were all touched upon and graph- ically portrayed. President Jack read a letter from Baron Gregar, the minister plenipotentiary from the Netherlands-to the United States, ex- pressing his regrets at his inability, on ac- count of a prior engagement, to be present. After a recess of ten minutes for social intercourse the second part of the program opened with the “Old Oaken Bucket,’ played as a violin solo, by special request, by Miss Farrow. A hearty vote of thanks was passed by acclamation to Miss Camp for her inter- esting lecture. Miss Lieberman then played as a piano solo the “‘Second Movement and Grand Finale of the Awakening of the Lion,”’ by Chevalier De Kontski. She was encored, to which she responded by playing the overture to “Lohengrin” (Wagner). Miss Gibson sang as a soprano solo Sobes- ki's “I Love You,"" and was compelled to respond to an encore. Miss Louise Fran- cois Moran then entertained the club with a monologue recitation, a pretty French Creole love story of ante-bellum days, which she entitled “Fat The program ‘oncluded with Mrs. Joseph F. Knapp's ‘Open Ye the Gates,” sung as a soprano solo by Mrs. Flower, who, upon being called upon for an encore, was requested to re- peat the last verse. —_+—_—_. CHARGE WITHDRAWN.

Washington, D.C.—When our boy was about 16 morths old he broke out with a rash Which was thought to be measles. In a few days he bad a swelling on the left side of his neck, and it was decided to be mumps. He was given medical attendance for about three Weeks, when the doctor safd it was scrofula, and ordered a salve. He wanted to lance the sore, but I would not let him, and continued giving him medicine for about four months, when the bunch broke in two places and be- came a running sore. ‘Three doctors said it was scrofuls, and each ordered a blood med- icine. A neighbor told me of a case some- What like our baby’s which was cured by Hood's Sarsaparilla. I decided to give it to my boy, and in a short while his health {m- Proved and his neck healed so nicely that I stopped giving him the medicine.
