Negro Who Is Believed to Have Helped Rob Guests of Marlborough and Vendome. BOSTON MEN ARE VICTIMS. Black Man Enters Their Room, Com- mands Them to Get in Bed, Then Coolly Takes Watches and Cesh from Their Clothing. Central Office detectives arrested to- day another negro on suspicion that he fs an accomplice of Charles Fraser, who Is already under lock and key chargea with robbing two guests of the Hotel Marlborough. The new suspect is Richard Johnson. He was found by Detectives Buyle and Charlton, at No. 309 West Thirty-sev- enth etreet. where Fraser was arrested yenterduy. He was taken to Police Head- quafters. ‘The police say that he Js an ex-convict and that he is desperate €nough to have perpetrated the recent robberies, Whoever the men are who have been 4) doing this work, they are experts. They have climbed fire-escapes and entered my Svests’ rooms, revolvers ready, showing «that they were prepared to kill 1f necea- moi ry. api con 4 The Marlborough robbery has already been partially fastened on Fraser. A pawn ticket for one of the watches stolen was found in his pocket. The two Hotel Vendome guests tried to identify him but falled. They were sent for to-day to have a look at John- son but they have left town. They are \ expected back in two days, and then | Capt. Titus hopes that they can fix the | crime on the latest suspect. The Vendome victims wera A. L. Al- len and J. F, Melaughiin, business men {rom Boston. They returned to their room early in | the morning after attending the theatre | and eating luncheon and were preparing i Pawn Ticket on Fraser. to go to bed when the window was thrown up and they saw a negro point- ing a revolver at them. The Intruder was apparently twenty-two years old and very black. ) He was of short, stocky bulld and acted | as though accustomed to his work. He | told hin victims to get into bed and put the bed clothing over their heads, and they lost no time in obeying. Then he looted their clothing of their valuable gold watches, $600 and Mr. Mc- Laughiin's diamond shirt stud, all the time warning the men in bed that he would shoot at the slightest sound from them. When he took everything he could find he backed out of the window, still pointing Nis revolver at the men. Called Vainly for Help. When he entered the room he threw ‘ the key to the door under the bed, and It wok Mr. Allen some time to find It In tho mean time Mr. McLaughlin called vainly for help from the street. They were on the eighth floor and the voice was lost, Finaliy the door was opened and the two men, half dressed, ran down the geven flights of stairs to the office. ‘Their story caused great excitement, for detectives, thinking the robber might have entered other rooms, began @ thorough search of the hotel. Johnson and Fraser were to-day ar- raigned in Jefferson Market Court and remanded to Police Headquarters until next Wednesday for examination, —$——— GLAD SHE DIDN'T GO OVER NIAGARA. Buffalo Woman Is Rescued from the Falls, Despite Her Desper- ate Efforts to Die. >, (Special to Tho Evening World.) BUFE ALO, Nov. 14.—Mrs. Helen Cos- tello, of this city, is in a hospital re- Joleing to-day that she did not go over the brink of Niagara, from which she was rescued In a real melodramatic manner. Mrs. Costello had had her family troubles. She wanted to die, and she ‘ent down the Niagara River until a inile above the falls, when she jumped in. Holding to a drifting log. she. re- mained on the surface and was seen on the shore, Word was telephoned to Buperiatendent Perry, of the American Reservation at the Falls. Iling a dozen of his men and gather- ding se coils of rope they to the low stone bridge’ connecting the main land with Goat Island and only a few feet from the precipice. From the } current {t was belleved that Mrs. Cos- tello would pass under the center arch, and over this preparations were made. Bhe could be seen drifting: down, com. Ing faster and faster as the water awelled to leap over the: brink. A rope ‘was passed under the shoulders of John Marshall, one of the reservation officers, land he was lowered over the centr arch until he was near the water, Just as Mrs. Costello came along he Wa dropped upon hér and held her fast Bhe fought to hold on to the log whic was dragging her to the fatal edge. ‘The log tore away from her as Mar- shall held on. As the men on the bridge pulled at the rope Mrs, Costello fought Marshall. Another rope was lowered, Marshall passed It about her body and she was dragged up, Then Marshall was tal up. It was one of the mont herolo re cues ever made at the Falls, and there have been many. “Hoodoo” Stamp Ri WASHINGTON, Nov. 1 about | by SECOND HOTEL [REPAIR BRIDGE |Weak Kidneys — BURGLAR CAUGHT, AT-GREAT PERIL aud Central Detectives Find Another |Workmen Lashed to Cables of|““Was very much run down, I have gained the Williamsburg Structure Remove the Swaying and Partly Burned Footbridges.

Making way for the new footbridges. which will be begun as soon as the old ones are removed, several gangs of ‘ridgemen labored to-day on the sway- ing woodwork of the land epans, which every instant threatened to break and precipitate them ‘Into the street below. ‘They were fastened to the big cables overhead by ropes which encircied their bodies under’their arms, but even this safeguard would be of littie avail In case of a sudden breaking of the planks be- reath their feet. “We had almost finished the work on the cables,” said Supt. Porter, “when the fire put us back so badly.

It would be much easier to allow the whole string to fall fto the river, but the Government will not allow us to do that. The new foot- paths will be by no means as elaborate 4s the old ones, a walk of three feet elng all that is necessary. As_a result of the notice issued by the engineers of the War Department to the different ferry companies that they would have to run their boats under the bridge at their own risk the Twenty- third and Forty-second street lines been given a wide berth by many of thelr former patrons.

Advice That Was Worth It. “Il was once a slave to the coffee habit, and became almost a confirmed Invalid by drinking it,” says Mr. C. H. Aitken, of Whiting, N. J. “I tried to break away from coffee, but every time I stopped I suffered from severe sick headaches, and for relief wont back to coffee again, only in the ,end to suffer from extreme nervousness and severe bilious at- tacks. “I became so irritable that I made life miserable for my family and my- rclf, Finally I went to New York to congult a specialist. oughly questioning and examining me he said I must give up drinking coffee, a8 it had greatly undermined my health, and he further said that coffee killed more people than rum. 1 laughed at him, but he said it was the truth, and that in his practice he had seen many evil effects from coffee drinking. “He said it was of no use to pre- seribe for me unless I gave up coffee, and recommenaed that I use Postum Food Coffee, which he highly recom- mended. He charged me $12 for his advice, which I thought rather hich- priced at the time, but to-day I think it very cheap. I bought several pack- ages of Postum from the grocer, and it was the best day’s work I ever did for myself, “YT had a pot of Postum made for my supper that night. That was in the spring of 1898, and I have drunk it. ever since with the best of results to my health: The sick headache and nervousness I suffered from drinking coffee have entirely gone; I am never bilious, and ‘have in- ereased in weight; I have a happier : disposition and am much more agree- i Reet stamps willbe, ready or \eie Bie to my family and supply to postmas\ers to-morrow, After thor! —_ Lame Back twenty-three pounds, feel better and stronger in every way.” = Lr MR. ROBE RT LUSBY. FLEMINGTON, N. J., March 31, 1902. Gentlemen:—It is not customary for me to write testimonials regarding medicines, but I feel that it is my duty to thank you, and by so doing tell other sufferers what Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Koot, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, has done for me. This recommendation will not interest | people who are well, but 1s intended for those who are trying to obtain better health, Some time ago I read in a paper of a case, Mrs. Gertrude Warner Scott, of Vinton, Iowa, who had taken Swamp-Root with such remarkable success, and being personally acquainted with the party (as I used to live there a! number of years ago), 1 thought I would try it for myself. I have never) been of a strong constitution and have been troubled a great deal with my back and kidneys. I started taking Swamp-Root about eix weeks ago. I have taken five bottles. I have gained 23 Ibs. and feel better and stronger to-day than I ever did in my life. Our druggist told me Saturday that he has a very large sale of Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, and I am glad to tell you I think that Swamp-Root does all you claim for it. Gott. Fahy: No matter how many doctors you may have tried—no matter how much money you may have spent on other medicines—you really owe it to your-| self to at least give Swamp-Root, the wonderful kidney and bladder remedy, | a trial. Ite stanchest friends to-day are those who had almost given up! li of ever becoming well again, j it used to be considered thet only urinary and bladder troubles were to} be traced to the kidneys, but now modern science proves that nearly all) diseases have their beginning in the disorder of these important organs. The kidneys filter and purify the blood—that {s their work. Therefore, when your kidneys are weak or out of order you can understand how! quickly your entire body is affected, and how every organ seems to fail to do its duty, If you are sick or “feel badly,” begin taking the great kidney remedy, Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root. because as soon as your kidneys are well they| will help all the other organs to health. A trial wil convince any one. Sample Bottle of Swamp-Root Free. You may have a sample bottle of this wonderful remedy, Swamp-Root, | sent absolutely free by mail, also a book telling all about Swamp-Root, and| containing many of the thousands upon thousands of testimonial letters re-| ceived from men and women who owe their good health, in fact their very lives, to the great curative properties of Swamp-Root. In writing to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., be sure to say that you read this gener- ous offer in the New York Evening World. If you are alrendy convinced that Swamp-Root is what you need you can purchase the regular fifty-cent and one-dollar size bottles at the drug stores everywhere. Don’t make any mistake, but remember the. name, Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, and the address, Binghamton, N. ¥., on every bottle. i CANDY Buying candies at LOFT’S is a good habit to cultivate—for {t teaches one economy and insures the best and purest sweets that can be manufac- | wired, The longer one shogs at our stores ‘the more fixed becomes the habit of buying there—because back of every transaction is the important element of satisfaction.
