Mackintosh is the commence- | | ment of the final chapter of a romance | | begun on the high seas in May of last | year.

They were | married in 18%. Mrs. Schmitt says that | last Febru her husband told her he had a “good mind to cut her heart out.” | She says that as he was holding a large | knife in his hand at the time his threat was made, she became very much fright- | ed and as a result suffered mentally. | Mrs. Schmitt's name was Brownlee when | | she married the tailor and she would re- | sume that name. | | Joseph J. and Viola Rodgers, who were | married at Benicla in October, 1300, are | not living in peace and harmony. In a | complaint for divorce on the ground of | eruelty flled by Rodgers he says that it | {1s his wife's fault.

He listened for a while, but heard | no further noise and concluded that the shot must have been fired some distance away. Two hours later he met Police- man H. W. Crowley and the two made a search of the yard. They found the body of a man lying on his back between two piles of lumber, with a gaping bul- let wound in the right temple and a cheap bulldog revolver in the right band. A | copy of the Saturday Evening Post dated | October 10, 1903, was lying beside the body. The suicide was 6 feet 2 inches tall and weighed about 180 pounds. He was dress- ed in a black suit and wore a soft black hat. He was not more than 30 years of age, with brown hair and eyes and light complexion, thin features, high cheek bones, long nose, pointed chin and the eyetooth of the upper right jaw missing. Trinkets found on the person indicated that he was a recent arrival from Chi- cago. On his person were a cheap brass watch and a brass chain and locket, all very much worn. On the watch w: monogram composed of the letters H. B.” or “C. K. B.” On one side of the locket was an intaglio of an antique Gre- clan head and on the other a carnellan disk. The scabbard of a small aluminum comb bore an advertisement of the Chi- cago Mills, the back of a pocket mirror the advertisement of a hatter at 120 Clark street, Chicago; an ivory match box had a “want ad.” advertisement of the Chi- cago Record and a spectacle case of an optician at 83 Madison street, Chicago.

Few People Know How Useful It Is in Preserving Health and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows that charcoal is the safest and most efficient disinfectant and pur- ifier in nature, but few realize its value when taken into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal is & remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs the gases and impurities alway; present in the stomach and Intestines and car- ries them out of the system. Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, arinking or after eating onions and other odor- ous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears and improves the complexion, it whitens the teeth and further acts as a patural and eminently safe cathartie, It ebsorbs the injurious gases which collect | in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh. All druggists sell charcoal in one form or an- other, but probably the best charcoal and the | most for the money is In Stuart's Absorbent | Lozenges; they are composed of the finest pow- dered Willow charcoal, and other harmiess an. tiseptics in tablet form or rather in the form of large. pleasant tasting lozenges, the charcoal being mixed with honey, The daily use of these lozenges will soon tell in a much Improved condition of the gen- eral health, better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is that no possible harm can result from their con- tinued use, but on the contrary, great benefit. A Buffalo physician in speaking of the bene- fits of charcoal says: “I advise Stuart's Ab- sorbent Lozenges to all patients suffering from gas in stomach and bowels, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly bene- fited by the daily usq of them: they cost but twenty-five cents a box at drug stors, and al- :hough in some sense a patent preparation, yet I beheve I get mors and better charcoal in Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges than in any the ordinary charcoal tablets.” ” a few yards of him he threw himself upon the track with his head across the rail, The dead man was 40 or 45 years of age, 5 feet 6 inches tall. The hair was brown, mixed with gray: mustache brown, fea- tures thin, with high cheek bones; com- plexion light, eyes brown, nose large, ears large, chin pointed and teeth very bad. He weighed about 140 pounds. H. B. Davis, timekeeper for the West- ern Sugar Refinery, called at the Morgue in the afternoon and after inspecting the body expressed the opinion that the sui- cide had been one of the workmen in the refinery but he was unable to iden- tify the corpse. He said that the morn- ing shift changed at 6 o'clock and that the dead man probably was onihis way to the refinery at the time he threw him- self under the wheels. Joseph Meligan and Thomas Riley were near the train at the time and saw the stranger throw himself upon the track. ————————— Select Site for Range.
