HONESDALE,
A runaway that might have proved
fatal occurred here about 10 a. m. yes
terday. A team of horses owned by
William Hulister, of Cherry Ridge, were
tied in front of the postoflice. The wag
on to which they were hitched was
large and heavy and contained empty
milk cans. The horses became fright
ened b ythe pausing; on the sidewalk of
a boy driving a goat and made a frantic
dash, breaking the halter and turning
down Main street at u terrific speed.
The road was filled with wagons of
every description. A woman and a boy
wore coming up street In u small wagon
und were directly In the way of the
runaway team, and as she turned
nharply to the left It seemed as If
he must be run down and probably
'killed. People on th street . stood
breathless as she raised her whip and
struck tho horse she was driving. The
horse leaped forward carrying the oc
cupants out of danger, but with only a
hair's breadth to spare. On dashed the
horses and made direct for a team at
tached to an Ice wagon. In front of
Katz Brothers they dashed on the side
walk, and would have smashed the
large, plate glass front of the store but
for the kindly intervention of a tele
graph pole, which the wagon couldn't
go through and in an Instant the horses
and wagon were separated but brought
to a standstill. The wagon had become
so- firmly attached to the pole that It
was some time before It could be re
moved. . A few moments before this a
horse owned by a Mr. Weldner ran up
Main street, but was stopped by Dray
man Kimble, who is an expert at stop
ping runaways.
Percy Bentley. of Wllllamsport, has
been shaking hands with old acquaint

V7ILICES-DARRE.
SHAFFER ON TRIAL.
Ueagariaa Ssaat Cass Agsia la Caart.
Is lataatea with Uteres!.
Frank Shaffer, who Is charged with
Nelson Miller and the others with com
plicity in the blowing up of the Hun
garian shanty at the cut-off over a
year ago, was called for trial In court
room No. 1 yesterday morning.' Judge
Bennett presiding.
The case is on or tae most interest
ing ever tried in the country, as Shaffer,
who Is now on trial, has told several
different stories, all or which conflict
with the previous confession on the
stand In the Miller case, where he went
down In front of the Jury box and Il
lustrated how be hud mil led the bat
tery which sent-the deceased foreiirn-
ers to their death. He was so clear on
that occasion and his evidence on the
whole was so well moulded together
that there wag no doubt as to the guilt
of all parties arrested. Ills last state
ment, however, if given In gooa faith,
will make a deal of change in the situa
tion, r..-.
It is said that Shaffer's mind has be
come unbalanced since the commission
of the crime and .that he is constantly
brooding over' the- affair. His appear
ance In court this mornimt would seem
to cast some doubt about that.. as he
was bright and cheerful and did not ap
pear to be affected by the awful circum
stances under whlch he is placed, but
on the. contrary he appeared to be un
concerned. The day was consumed In the selec
tion of Jurors. -;
The twelfth Juror was drawn at a
late hour this afternoon. The case will
be a sensational one. -

ma. I nless the case has a serious turn

FORTY THOUSAND.
THAT'S THE NUMBER OF PHYSICIANS
WHO USETHE NEW PREPARA
TION FOR DYSPEPSIA AND
. WASTING DISEASES- .. -
THEY DO SO BECAUSE IT IS NOT A
SECRET PATENT MEDICINE.
They Knew H Cans Every
Far at at ladls-estlaa and Staa
acta TreaM.
It has-been recently stated that not
less than 40.000. physicians are using or
indorsing the new discovery for Indi
gestion sold by druggists under the
name of Stuart s Dyspepslu Tablet.
Dr. Tomlinaon gives the following rea
sons why pliysiciuns regard this new
remedy with so much favor.
First, because It Is not a secret patent
madlclne but a sclent I tic combination of
vegetable essences, pure aseptic pepsin.
free from animal impurities and of very
high digestive power, bismuth und gol
den seat.
It hus been tested retieatedly and the
experiments have proven that one
grain of the digestive principles In
Stuart a Dyspopsiu Tuhlet will digest
three thousand times it own weight of
lean meat, eggs, oatmeal and similar
wholesome foods.
The tablets act wholly, upon the food
taken Into the stomach, digesting It
thoroughly no matter whether the
stomach is in "rood working orde. or
not, and cure all forms of dyspepsia
nd stomach troubles on the common
sense plan that they nourish the body
and rest the stomach at the same time.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act
upon the bowels like the old-fashioned
after-dinner pills; nor are they an arti
ficial stimulant like "stomuch bitters."
nor are they in any way similar to so
called pre-dlgested foods, which consist
of ii per cent, of "glucose," the stuff
that cheap candies are made from, but
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do what
none of these do. they act wholly upon
the rood eaten und digest it completely
and the cure of ludigeslion is un assured
ruct, because the food being promptly
digested, it cannot lie for hums in the
stomach, fermenting, decaying, tilling
ine system with the germs of disease,
but is assimlluled. nnurlshluK and in
vigorating not only the body and brain,
uut the stomach itself, as wejl.
Tne tublets are absolutely harmless
nd can be given und ore Riven with
benefit to little children and infants suf
fering from Indigestion, as shown above
they contain no mineral poison, nor
anything iu any way injurious.
Dr. wuerth says he had noticed In
many cases that the tablets not only
cured In indigestion, but that a very
noticeable increase of flesh resulted
where people who used the tublets were
thin and run down in flesh before tak
ing them, and it Id not at all surprising
thut such should be the case when it.
Is remembered that most people are
nun because their stomach are out of
order, and when perfect digestion is
brought back an Increase of Mesh is the
nuturul accompaniment.
Within the last six months nianv
thousand cases of stomach trouble and
dyspepsia have been cured by Stuurt's
Dyspepsia Tablets and the r conveni
ence und popularity Is such that drug
gists everywhere are now selling them.
