Cnrlo Martini Kills the MnnWho Made nn Appointment with His Wife. New Orleans, May 27. Another Ital ian murder growing out of the elope ment of a wife occurred near here to day, but this time It was the husband who did the killing. Otherwise the murder was very much like the De licto one of Sunday. Carlo Martini or, n8 he has Anglicized his name, Charles Martin, married In Italy some six years ago. The wife was only 15 years old at the time and claims that the mar riage was forced on her. Martini being well to do, she married him, however, under orders from her parents, and gave up Vincenzo Slrchla, her school mate and sweetheart. A few months ago Vlrjcenzo came to this country, having grown into a handsome young man. He visited Plaquemines and there he found his old sweetheart. When the husband visited New Or leans Vincenzo persuaded Mrs. Martin to elope with him. and, taking $3,000 of her husband's money, he started for New York. The husband acted quick ly. As soon as he heard of the elope ment he sent telegrams and caught the couple at Monroe, La., where they were arrested. When Martin got there his wife declared that she had eloped in a fit of temporary insanity, expressed penitence, and agreed to return to him. Yesterday ahc received a letter from Vincenzo telling her he would reach Plaquenrine this morning and to meet him at the depot. The husband filled the appointment Instead. As the train reached the depot he sprang upon the cars, walked up the aisle where Vin cenzo was seated, nnd shot at him threo times. Tha young man fell to the floor, when Martin placed the pistol close to the head of tho prostrate man and killed him. FUNNY COLLEGE BOYS. They Disturb Class Day Exercises with Queer Antic. Beaver Falls, May 27. This was class day at Geneva college, and notwith standing that many visitors were pres ent, including ministers and, elders, v.hc are delegates to the synod, the students became quite boisterous and somra lively bcenes were enacted. When the chapel doors were opened a "dummy" vtas found suspended from the calling, but this was removed be fore the performance commenced. Dur ing parts of the performance a per fect pendemonlum reigned, the speak ers' voices being drowned with whist ling, cat calls, etc. There was at least a bushel of beans on the. platform, 'with cabbages a,nd onions, all being thrown from tho gallery at the luckless per formers who chanced to say a word which failed to meet with the ap proval of tho younger students. While the show was in progress, a second "dummy" was hoisted from the ground on the outside of the building Into the gallery, and by means of a rope suspended over the heads of the audience In tho lower hall. During the playing of the orchestra, a string was manipulated to cause the figure to dance In most grotesque fashion, greet ed with shouts of laughter. The danc ing was continued too long, however, as the figure shook its pantaloons loose from the coat, and a shower of sawdust and shavings fell upon the people be low. The seniors took their guying in a good natured way and there were no personal encounters. It is intimated that the show this afternoon may put a quietus to class days in Geneva for the future.

The market was quIteJ'etronjr for a time today, but tho rather sensational slump In the rub ber shares and the large selling In Bal timore and Ohio put a stop to the rise and also tho activity of the trading. The volume of the dealings In. all stocks for tho threo hours of trading afternoon was only about one-third of that for the two hours before noon, The lack Of confidence In the stability of values on the part of tho professional traders. who still control tho market, almost altogether was Illustrated by the promptitude with which they proceeded to take promts on rather slight provo cation. The total sales of stocks to day were 136,593 shares. Furnished bj WILLIAM IdNN, Ah LEN & CO., stock brokers, Mears build ing, rooms, 703-706. Open- High- Low- Clos. lng. oat. oil, !ng. Am.

Tliousnnds of People Have Dyspepsia in Its Worst l'orin mill Do Not Know It. A weak stomach Is tho cause ot about nine-tenths of all disease, yet In most cases the wrong thlrwr la treated and tho true cause overlooked. This is because a weak digestion pro duces symptoms resembling nearly every disease because it weakens and disturbs the action of every nerve and organ In the body; poor Jlgcatlon causes heart trouble, kidney troubles, lung weakness and especially nervous bnvik down or nervous prostration, the nerves cannot stand tho wear and tear unless generously fed by well digested, wholesome food. Keep tho digestion good and no ono nceu fear tho approach of disease. Mrs. II. M. Lee, of Rochtstei, N. Y wrlts: For the sako cf suffering human ity I want to say that from a child 1 hal a very weak stomach, threw up my food very often nfter eating and after a few years nervous dyrprpsla resulted and for more than twfinty years I have suf fered Inexpressibly. I tried many physicians and advertised remedies with only temporary rellet for nervous dyspepsia and not until I com menced taking Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets last September, bIx monthB ago, havo I been free from suffering cavsod by the condition of my nerves and stomach; In short, chronic nervous dyspepsia. I havo recommended Stuart's Dysptpsla Tablets to'many of my friends, and now I want In a public way to say they are tho safest, pleasantest and I bellevo surest euro for stomach and nerve troubles. I write my honest opinion ana I will gladly nnswer nny letter of Inquiry at any time nnd feel that I am, In my Bmall way, help ing on a good cause. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is not a pat ent medicine, but they contain only the .fruit salts, digestive acids nnd peptones necessary to help the weak stomach to promptly and thoroughly digest food. All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at 50 cents for full sized package and anyone suffering from nervous dys pepsia, sour stomach, headaches, acidity, gases, belching, etc., will And them not only a quick relief but a radical cure.
