Women Should Know ll.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because'the nature of their dis-
ase is not correctly understood. They
ave been led to believe that womb

' ouble or female weakness of some
rt is responsible for the many ills
atbeset womankind._

. Neuralgia, nervousness, headache.
ulfy or dark circles under the eyes,
. loeumatism, a dragging pain or dull
l che in the back, weakness or bearing
' own sensation, profuse or scanty sup,
i 1y of urine with strong odor, frequen-
‘ esire to pass it with scalding or burnt
; g sensation, sediment in it after
anding in bottle or common glass for
enty-four hours, are signs of kidney

u d bladder trouble.
5; The abOVe symptoms are often at-
l" “ibuted by the patient herself, or by

 

er physician, to female weakness or'

omb trouble. Hence, so many fail to
J otain relief, because they are treating
ot the disease itself, but a reflection
_~ the primary cause, which is kidney
ouble.

. In fact. women as well as men are

. ade miserable with kidney and blad-
r trouble and both need the same
medy. .

Detective Arnold Tells. What
He Saw and Found
in House.

 

ADJOURNED T0 MONDAY.

Defense Got in First Identification of Body of
Marie Perkins.

Withg’nthe close of yesterday’s pro-
ceedings in the Dr. Nancy A. Guilford
trial the court adjourned until Mon~
day. The trial has been in progress
eight days and it is believed that one
day more will suffice to complete the
evidence of the state.‘

Considerable time was devoted with
testimony tending to identify the sig-
nature of Mrs. Guilford, to show that
Mrs. Guilford received money and tele-
grams from Oxley.

DetegtiveGeorge Arnold on the cross-
examination to-day told of the condi-
tion of the rooms and closets in his
Guilford home last September when he
was searching them for incriminating
evidence. In the bath room he de-
tected an odorsimilar to that of car-
bolic acid. He found a saw which it
15 thought was used to cut up Emma
Gill’s body in the bath room. With
the presentation of Detective Arnold’s
testimony was the first suggestion
made by the state that the actual mur-
der of the girl was committed in Nancy
Guilford’s house. I,

UndertakerJohn Cullinan was among
the witnesses and during the cross-
examination he told of the identifica-
tion of the remains by Frank Perkins
of Middleboro, Mass, as those of his
daughter Grace, and also of sending
the body to Middleboro, Mass, under
the name of Grace Perkins.

The defense has been unable hereto-
fore to get this evidence admitted and
in their opinion it throws some doubt
on the positive identification of Emma
Gill. The state fought strenuously for
its exclusion, but was unsuccessful.

Howard C. Guernsey, a druggist of
Southington and a friend of Harry .Ox-
ley, told of receiving a bundle of let-
ters from Oxley on the day that an-
nouncement was made. of the finding of
portions of the body in Yellow Mill
pond, and, thinking that they might
have some connection with the murder
mystery, be destroyed them the day
Oxley was arrested. "

Detective Arnold was the concluding
witness .of the afternoon and he was
recalled for the fifth. time since the
trial opened.

Only One Similar Case on Record in Con-

necticut Courts.

Judge G. W. Wheeler, whois presid-
ing over the trial of Dr. Nancy A.
Guilford for murder, yesterday ren-
dered a‘ decision in the proceedings
against Langdon Smith, the descriptive
writer on the New York Journal, ad-
judging him in coatempt of court, and
imposing a fine and imprisonment. Mr.
Smith is out of the jurisdiction of the
court, but will find it risky to return
“to Connecticut. He is liable to arrest.
upon the judgment if found within the.
bOM‘deI'S of the state.

Smith’s case has attracted wide at-
tention. He was arrested last Monday“
in the court upon a complaint drawn
by State’s Attorney Fessenden, upon
the request of the court, for having
published two articles that were of-

their authorship in a general way, and

fensive to the court.

was ordered to appear before the court
that afternoon. Smith the previous
Friday had been informed by the court
to appear Monday. "

His lawyer at the hearing Monday
afternoon was anxious to have the case
disposed of, but owing to the fact that
Smith’s copy at the telegraph office
could not be obtained at that time,
Judge Wheeler Ordered the case post-
poned until Tuesday at 5 o’clock. Tues-
,day, on request by telegram, another
adjournment was ordered, and Wed-
nesday Smith failed to put in an ap-

earance. The matter was proceeded
with, Judge Wheeler taking the papers.

Judge Wheeler in his memorandum
says:'

“I find that said articles were an un-
fiir account of said case on trial,unduly
interfered with the administration of
justice, "and were calculated to preju-‘V
diée the jury and the public as to the
merits of the case on trial, and that
this is especially true of those parts of
‘the articles contained between the lines
referred to in paragraph 6 of the .com-
plaint.” _ ’ 4

The court then points out the 0b-
-je_ctionable parts, speaking specially of
the criticism of and reflection upon
the jury. He then says:

“It was the intention of the court,
in case the matters contained in the,
application were proven and Mr. Smith
failed to purge himself pending the
determination of the case on trial to
suspend judgment and finally to dis-
pose of the matterunless something
happened to prevent such disposition,
with the utmost leniency permissible
under the circumstances.

“But the present condition of 'the
cause. Mr. Smith having submitted to
the jurisdiction of the" court, and then
made default of appearance, 'makes it

necessary to take another course. It iS
not the purpose of the court to inflict
harsh punishment. All that it seeks to
prevent is unfair treatment of a cause
on trial, and of those responsible for
the conduct of the trial. or compelled
by process of the law to be present at
said trial.

A “It recognizes that .l\’.ll‘.' Smith is a
subordinate, acting under instruction,
writing for pay, and that primarily his
superiors are responsible for the
character of his work; it recognizes
that he is following a practice which
has for a few years past prevailed with
certain newspapers, and that the rea-
son these abuses in the publication of
court proceedings exist is largely the
fault of the courts themselves in nor.
having long since . stopped them.
While these things cannot justify these
contempts, they ought to be taken into
consideration in imposing penalties.

"It is ordered and adjudged that
said Smith is guilty of contempt of
court, and that he pay a fine of $50 and
be imprisoned in the county jail at
Bridgeport for the term of five days
and that he be committed to said jail and
confined therein until this judgment
is complied with or until he is discharg-
ed by order of this court, or otherwise
by due process of law.”

ord in the Connecticut courts, that

Judge Lyman D. Brewster, then pre'
siding over .the court of Common pleas,
adjudged Middlebrook guilty of con-
tempt, and ordered himto pay a fine of

This occurred in 1872.

The defendant remained out of the
