will Tillman Oeurt in Lattimer Riot Trial Re- ceives Anonymous Letter. “HE HAS NO PERSONAL FEAR Judge “'oodward Terms the \Vriter a Scoundrel and Coward and Says no Such Dishonorable llleans ‘Will Afl‘ecl His Judgment--Point for the Defense. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Feb. 9.—Before the ' trial of Sheriff Martin and his deputies was resumed yesterday Judge Wood- ward stated that he had received an anonymous letter making threats if he -31d not do certain things. The Judge said: “The man who wrote this will prob- ably hear what I have to say, and I want to tell him that he is a scoun- drel and a coward, and that no such dishonorable means will in any way'af- feet my judgment. Cowardice and per- sonal fear are not a. characteristic of the race from which I come.” When court adjourned Monday night Judge Woodward held under advise- ment 3. question as to the admissibility of‘certain evidence given by John Cos- tello. a witness for the prosecution, and which had been objected to by the de- fense. The objection of the defense W: 3 , sustained. ( ostello was then recalled and asked to tell what he saw on the road from Fsirley’s Hotel to Lattimer. He said that he had seen eight wounded men lying along the road and three dead men. . ' John Lynch, the next witness, testified that he was at lVest Hazelton when the strikers arrived, and that they were unarmed and orderly. He heard several threats against the strikers. One dep- uty pointed his gun at a striker and said: 'i‘I could get a bead on that fel- lbW.” Another said: "‘I’ll get even with the When we get to Lattimer.” .- Deputy Ferry, the witness said, told a. man. who was sympathizing with a striker whose head was bleeding that if he did not shut up he would blow his head off. Evan Jones, the chief of police of West Hazlton, was the next witness called. He said that the strikers reached West Hazelton on the after- nooon of the shooting and there met the sheriff and the deputies. They car- ried a flag and talked rather loud, but they had no arms and made no disturb- ance of any kind. The sheriff told them that they could not march to Latti- mer and that they must go home, whereupon he (Jones) induced them to gun back and showed them how they could march by a side street. Herman Poettiger, of Hazelton, said that while at West Hazelton on the day of the shooting Deputy Henry Diehl tried to push him off the road, and when he objected Diehl drew his revolver, and, thrusting it under “his nose, cried: “If you dont’ get off I’ll blow your brains out.” Diehl then went away. This Diehl is the man who is supposed to have gone to South Africa. The witness then pointed out several deputies whom he had seen at erst Hazelton. Poettiger said he saw two deputies pull down the flag which the strikers were carrying. He saw a wounded striker in the hands of some deputies who were treating him roughly. They knocked him against the fences so forc- ibly that he fell to the ground. He saw no weapons of any kind among the strikers. As deputies boarded the car he heard Thomas Hall say: “I would like to get a pop at some of the “I.also heard another say, IWell, I’ll bet I’ll drop six when we get, over there.’ ” f The; afternoon session opened with Charles E. Rice, Chief Judge .of the Pennsylvania Superior Court, occupy- ing a seat on the bench. The defense tried hard to break down Poettiger’s testimony regarding the treatment of wounded strikers by the deputies, but failed to do so. Poettigcr made a. very strong witness for the commonwealth. The ~foreigners-,«near here. will hold a mass-meeting to-night. They have ‘posted the following notice throughout Edwardsville: “A mass-meeting of the 'citizens of Edwardsville will be held in Pauksz- tis Hall Wednesday evening at 7.30 o’clock to protest against the action of Judge Stanley Woodward, Presiding Judge of Luzerne County, for allow- ing Sheriff Martin and his deputies, charged with the high crime of murder, to go without bail. All lovers of law and order are invited to attend.” ' ———-——.‘o-——-———- Fled Naked From Hotel Fire. Reading, Pa., Feb. 9.—The Mt. Car— mel House, a large four-story frame structure at Mt.

In every case of chronic nasal ca- tarrh the lining membranes of the nose are thickened and of a deep red color, while the superificial veins are swollen ' and throbbing. In nearly every case we may find patches of a grayish color, and in not a few there is actual ulc'era- tion with more or less loss of substance. The secretion is thick, tough, of a greenish character, and when the de- struction is very rapid, of a fetid 'odor. Large collections ,f dried secretions may be adherent 30 the middle and sides of the nose. When inflammation has existed a long time and . ulceration has taken place, puriform matter is se- cret-ed and drops into the throat. This is one. of the most »._dangerous features of the complaint, and this matter often descends into the stomach, causing fre- quent vomiting and a general derange- ment of health and finally ends in ca- tarrh of the stomach. ' Nasal cat-arrh must be cured by local treatment, and in this, cleanliness of the nasal passages is the chief end and aim. The custom of habitually hawk- ing and snufl‘ing should be immediately stopped; besides being disgusting, it is unnecessary and productive of positive ingury.

He broke his eg short off—” And then added Mr. Whittier, “And then he kickedrthe mcket.” During the war a. Quaker riend, who was a. shipbuilder, asked Nhittier‘s advice as to building war- 'hips.

Weather conditions do not interfere with its working. An ordinary portrait of a person, such as is used for a newspaper cut, can be sent through and reproduced over a:‘ long or short circuit in about seven minutes. Printed or written matter can be likewise. reproduced. The in- ventor believes that under practically the same method as employed in his present machine an entire matrix or a full page of a newspaper, properly pre- pared, can be placed upon an enlarged cylinder and reproduced automatically“ by wire at distant points in printed form.-~-New York World.
