Nothing to Build 0n

 

Catarrhai Neuralgia, Almost Par-
alyzed, All Broken Up

 

Marvelousiy Restored to Health by
Hood’s Sarsapariila.
" C. 1. Hood 8: Co., Lowell, Mass:
“1 was taken sick with catarrhal neuralgia
and a complication of diseases, with
Nervous Prostration.
Physicians said there was no help for me. I
was run down so law there Was nothing to build
on. They said I had catarrh of thc'bladder. I
hadsuch light feelings in my head'I could bards
ly walk around the house. I think my throat
came very near being paralyzed, and it was with
the greatest difficulty I could swallow food. I

,became discouraged, and thinking I had once

before taken a few bottles of Hood’s Sarsapa-
rilla I decided to try it again. I am thankful I
did. When I commenced taking it I weighed 98
pounds; now I weigh 139 pounds. I could not
stand on my feet long enough to wash my
dishes; now I can do all my work washing in-
cluded, for five in family. Everyone cxclaims
when they see me, '
How Well You are Looking. _

I have such faith in Hood's fiarsaparilla I use it
ill-my family, and when I see anyone that is sick
I always advise him to take Hood's Sarsapa-

- . y ;
Hood stile Cures
rilla. I know what it has done for me and I feel

as if- I could not sound its praises enough."

'Superior Court ‘

An published in the GAZETTE of Wed-
nesday, the jury in the Clark case
brought in a verdict of guilty. It may
be of interest to 'quote the following
from the Former:

After being outexsctlv 54 minutes
the jury in the meant Charles Clark
of Stamford, charged nith outrageous
assault upon Louise Hufi'kens, returned
a verdict of guilty. On motion of At-
torney Hall. his counsel, the sentenc-
inc: of Clark was postponed to Friday.

When the court opened Judge ’l'or-
rance began his charge to the jury.
He Spoke for twenty minutes, quoting
the law and calling attention to various
portions of the evidence.

The chug-ewes regarded as an im-
partial one, but if there was an inclina-
tion to layer either side it was that of
the prisoner.

At 10:20 the ’jurv retired and tr few
minutes later made a request for the
pillow sham used to coverhliss Hoff-
‘ken’s face, and it was at once given
them. Then the door was again closed.

There was some difficulty in reaching
an agreement, but finally they came
out at just 11:19. The usual questions
were asked and in answer Robert Wil-
son of Fairfield, theIWhite haired but
erect foreman, answered that the pris-
oner had been found guilty. Attorney
Hull requested a poll of the jury which
was ordered. During this proceeding
there was another surprise

John Hard, of Stratt'ord, unlike his

. colleagues, answered “not guilty". and

there was a commotion. Mr. Hard
quieted it by announcing that he did
not know the final vote wits meant. tie
voted “guilty" on the final vote, he
said._ This settled the question of the
verdict. Attorney Carter asked that
sentence be passed. Mr. flail asked
that the passing of Sentence be deferred
till Friday. This would give him time
to decide as to the advisability of filing
motion for arrest of judgment. The re-
quest was granted. -
Fromamember of the jury it was
learned that four ballots were taken.
On the first the vote was eight for con-

,rv‘ictionfiwo for acquittal and two blanks.
’ i. be second and third each resulted 11

for conwctiou and one for acquittal,
but on the fourth Vote all the jurors
Were unanimously for conviction. ,Who
the two jurors were originally fav’oring
acquittal could not. be ascertained, but.
one was undoubtedly John Hard whose
answer to the poll cause a momentary
surprise. _ lemme-$.12;

it is possible that an appeal will be
taken to the Supreme court. Among
the members of the jury were Frank
W. Beers and John Kelly of Bridge-
port. .

George Barnes of Greenwich, charged
With being a party to me famous barn
burning cases, was put to plead on the
amended charge of injury to property.
33' the advice of counsel, he pleaded
guilty.

George Green, charged with being a

7 party to the burglary at McElroy Bros.

also pleaded guilty.

pleaded guilty. He was sentenced to
132;: months in jail and to pay a fine
oi $50 and Costs, and Barnes was soul
to jail for four months. Green was
sentenced to eight months in jail.

. John Williams of Greenwich, charged
With stealing several articles from the

Walter Guy Furnald Was an Apt Pupil of "

, the Sharper Hurt.
SAN FRANCISCO, March 1.-—Walter Guy
Furnald, who is now behind the bars of the

city prison charged with having stolen the -'

Jacobson trunk containing $10,000 worth
of diamonds, has had a checkered career.

Some years ago Furuald started for Eu-
rope with $3,000. On the ship he fell in
with W'illiam W; Hurt, a. notorious card
sharp and confidence man. Hurt, after
winning the youngmau’s money, became
his preceptor and partner. Fur-nah] had
entree to a number of London clubs, at
which he introduced Hurt.

In consideration for this service Fuf‘nlllll
received half of I-Iurt’s winnings. The two
parted company in a. few weeks, Furnald’s
share of the spoils amounting to $3,000.
He then saw Europe. At length, findmg
himself in New York with scarcely $100, he

‘eloped with a New Bedford girl, stole her

jeWelry and was arrested, but subsequently
released. Upon threats to sue the girl for
false imprisonment her father gave Fur-
nald $5,000 hush money.

‘ His next escapade was to win the afieo
tions of a. wealthy Chicago widow, who
gave him $10,000 with which to develop a
mythical mine in Montana. As an induce-
ment, he offered the old lady his heart and
hand. Some time after this he met his old
partner, Hurtrin Kansas City, where the
two plucked several victims. Furnald then
returned to Chicago, and in less than a
month was in jail, charged with forgery.
A lawyer pulled him through, and Fur-
nald followed Hurt to San Francisco.

' Shortly after his arrival here his Chicago
lawyer wrote to the San Francisco police,
exposing the scheme Furnald intended
working on the banks of this city. Public
attention was next' drawn to theyoung
man when he was arrested and charged
with the stealing of the J acobson, diamonds.

'A'r'nonrr'rnn SUICIDE.

A Condemned Murderer's Determined Ef-
I’ort to Destroy His Life.

CARLISLE, Pa., March 1,—Charles Sal-
yards, Who was sentenced to be hanged to-
morrow for the murder of Policeman Mar-
tin, attempted to commit suicide today.
Salyards was takenviolently ill, and when
the prison physician was called he found
that the condemned man had taken a le<
ture of matchheads and vinegar.
which he ‘had concealed in ’ room Sal‘
yards had still another DOiSu , which he
intended to use in case the matchheads
and vinegar failed to kill.

Upon examination it was found to be
glass and rust from iron bars, which he
had pounded together almost as fine as
flour. .

The deathwatch which had been placed
upon the prisoner has heretofore been on
the outside of the cell, but since his at-
tempt at self destruction today the watch
has taken up his position on the inside of
the cell.

There is little hope of saving Salyards’
life, and his threats that he would eventu-
ally cheat the gallows seem to have been
correct.

Dice Throwing Extraordinary.

ST. PAUL, March 1,—A Pioneer Press
Helena (’Mon.) special says: Miles Finlen
yesterday won $35,000 'in a game of dice.
Recently General C. S. Warren secured an
option on a mining claim for $15,000. To-
day Finlen offered him $10,000 for his bar-
Warren de-
manded $30,000. Finlen proposed a game
of dice whether he take the option Off War-
ren’s hands at $15,000 or pay Warren $50,—
000. W'arren agreed. He threw a pair of
fives. Finlen threw three deuccs and won
$35,000. _____________ -

Sovereign Against Strikes.

MINNEAPOLIS, March 1.-—-The lecture of
General Master Workman Sovereign of
the Knights of Labor here was full of sen-
sational utterances. He said he would not
give up his right to free speech, but did
not believe in strikes, as he never saw one
which did not do harm. He had not yet
found a motive sufficiently aggravating to

warrant him in advising'the Northern Pa- '

cific men to go on strike.
