SEBIOl'S CRIME') t'HAKGKD.
Three of the Persons Arrested at Kelly's
Patch Committed tojnll.
Alderman Millar gave a hearing In
police court last evening to the aggre
gation that was arrested In the raid
made by the police upon the disorderly
house of Mrs. Mary Jane Mathews, In
Kelley's Patch.
It proved to be one of the worst casrs
that has been ventilated in police court
in this city. Mr. Mathews Is a white
woman and pile Is not f.tlr, but she Is
fat and forty. Her husband Is a col
ored man, and he is a sight to look
upon. His build, countenance and gen
eral appearance are suggestive of the
rankest bestiality. He is as black as
the ace of spades.
On 'Memorial Day Edith McAfee, a
young white girl. IS years old, came up
from her parents' home in- EJwardsdale
and took apartments at the Mathews
household. She was in trouble and live
days later gave birth to a 3-months-old
foetus. John Norton, a chap without
all of his wits, took the foetus and
buried It near the Oxford culm dump.
Mrs. Hen Johnson, a white woman,
the wife of the colored ash gatherer,
acted In the capacity of a midwife.
Mrs. Johnson, Norton, who burled the
foetus, and Mrs. 'Mathews, at whose
house the matter culminated, were ar
raiged and Alderman Millar committed
them to jail without bail to answer the
crime of earning the death of the Infant
of Miss- McAfee.
County Detective Thomas Leyshon
performed the work that led to the ar
rest of the people connected with the
matter -and he has what Is considered
sulllclent evJJence to convict the three
that have been held, when the case gets
to court.
The rest of the crowd was discharged,
but during tho examination of them by
Alderman Millar tome disgusting de
tails were brought out.

she has nursed back to health many a suf
ferer. Dlsense In all Its varied forms have
become as familiar to her as to the regu
lar practitioner. Her oucupatlon Is one
that taxes the strongest constitution, but
the fatlguo of long watching and nuis
Ing nt last brought her to a lied of sick
ness. Mrs. Taylor speaks of her com
plaint and cure as follows: "After being
confined to my bed for Borne time my dis
ease assumed such a serious aspect that a
doctor was called. Ho pronounced my
ailment Hiight'B disease of the kidneys In
the third degree and a very bad case. My
limbs swelled up so that I could not walit
acresB the floor, or, Indeed, help myself In
any way. My face bloated up and my eyes
swelled so that the sight was badly im
paired. This condition continued for near
; two months without any marked Im
provement from tho doctor's treatment.
I have taken quarts of buchu and Juniper.
1 tried battery treatment, but nil with
out any lasting benefit until I felt like,
finally giving up In despair. Hearing cf
Doan's Kidney Pills I gave them a trial,
and nfter taking three boxes I wus able
to get up without assistance nnd walk,
something I had not done in months. I
continued steadily to Improve with their
use. The swelling In my leg left, tho color
returned to my face, changing from a
chalky color to a healthy bloom. I now
consider myself entirely cured and I shall
never rbst praising the little pill that
saved me.
"Doan's Kidney Pills aro certainly a
surprising discovery for kidney ailments.
I shall be glad to tell anyone of tho won
derful cure they performed on me."
