He was a very bad man, she declared, and tried to corrupt all the | women about him. She had intended, she sald, to let the matter drop after her resignation and avoid scandal, but Rev Mr. Gaston, who had h d of the matter, had acted—had written and told her it was her duty to present the facts to the Board of Supervisors. After thinking over the miatter carefully she had concludel he was right, and that perhaps. if the truth became known, further e might be aver She made an affadavit and had Miss Sundell do likewise Miss Pohlmann said that she and Miss Sundell both complained to the Board of | Supervisors about Shearer, but that the board took no action, and she and her fellow victim concluded to resign when they became convinced tne board would | not investigate. | ANEYER-OLD - BOY TORTURES L BBYERL Brutally Kicks the Little One and Attempts to Hang Her.

The | crowd attempted to close in on the mur- | derer, but was deterred by his threats to | shoot. ““This is my affair,” he sald coolly. “KeeP away from me or I'll send you to hell along with the woman."

AVERAWILL RESIGH FROM CUBAN CABINET Outcome of the Island Pa- triot’s Demand for In- dependence. It Is Predicted That the Other Sec- retaries Will Soon Follow the Example of the General. S e HAVANA, April 22—General Ruis Ri- vera, Secretary of Agriculture, has had a long interview with Governor General | Wood regarding the letter which he wrote | urging a union of political parties and a | unanimous. demand for independence by | the end of 1%1.

In the course of the interview General Rivera Informed Governor General Wood | that he had not meant any personal dis- | courtesy, but that he is of the opinion that he would prefer to be untrammeled by office, so that he might speak out his | mind on ‘political matters without embar- | rassing the Government. i The ‘members of the Cabinet are still | considering where they stand with re- spect to the recently expressed views of General Ruis Rivera. Most of them feel if they do not resign the will be looked upon by Cuban voters as being neglect- ful of the interests of the island, while, on the other hand, they feel that, if they should resign, they would not only lose their salaries, but also that their places would be occupied by members of the Democratic Union party, which repre- nts the conservative elément, together with all the autonomist organizations. With the exception of Senor Villalon, the members of the present Cabinet are members of the National party, and they would dread the effect of a new party coming into office; for, with the patron- age at the disposal o’ the new party, it woutld unquestionably become predomi- nant. As a matter of fact, the Democratic Unlon party. whose leaders believe in giv- ing the United States full swing, is al- ready fast gaining ascendancy. Total Coal Production.

We do not deliberately form our pet habits, but they are unconsclously ac- quired and grow we grow, and by the time we learn they are hurting us, we find them too strong to be easily broken. Then, why not form a good habit, a habit which will counteract the many bad ones, in other words contract the unfash- jonable habit of being always well. The best health habit to get into is to have and keep a vigorous stomach; if you have a healthy digestion you can drink your beloved coffee, smoke your favorita brand of tobacco, with little or no harm; the mischief begins when these things are forced upon the faithful stomach, without orm the habit of some harmless but which will relieve the a work. ture furnishes us with such digestiv. and when they are combined In such a pleasant preparation as Stuart's Dyspe sia ablets, they give the overworked stomach just the necessary assistance to sccure perfect digestion without any of the harmful effects of cathartics and sim- flar drugs. The habit of taking Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets after meals is as necessary to the weak stomach as’ food itself, and indeed to get the benefit from food eaten, noth- ing better and certainly nothing safer can be used.
