TOOK CARBOLIC ACID.
Cclla Clarke Took a Terrible but Sue
cesstul Method ol Destroying Her
selfHer Lover Left Her.
Cella Clarke, the Center street wo
man who swallowed embolic acid with
sulcldnl Intent early Saturday morn
Iul', died that nfternon nt I o'clock In
tho I.ncktiwnnuu hospital. She was
conscious duilim most of the day,
A jiost-moitoin examination of tho
body liv Cm oner Longstreet showed
that the woman had taken about ten
tenspoonsful of the poison in the same
crude state as that In which It came
from the drug stole. Its power was
sutllclent to kill ton persons nnd It is
doubtful it nn antidote ndmlnisteted
Immediately after tho poison was taken
would hnvo saved her life. The lining
of the stomach was literally eaten
awny and tho organ contained muny
pelforatlons
Someone whose name was not re
vealed, but who Is thought to be Iden
tified with a charitable Institution,
dltocted Pndeitakei Tague, of tho
West Side, to take charge of the re
mains. The vvotnun had relatives In
Hnehestor, X. Y. If they do not as
sume chaige nf the body, It will bo
given n Christian burial.
It Is believed tho unfortunnto's act
was niit of sudden nnd thoughtless
despetatlon and not long premedi
tated. She quarreled soon after mid
night In the White House saloon with
a man. Dan (Jieen, with whom she had
been living at ir.t"i v.ils. He thteat
ened to bleak with her and she said
she would kill herself. They patted
and about an hour later she was found
by other Inmates vv tithing In agony In
her tnom at "M Center street, n place
kept by "Deaf Annie '
It vvas Cella Cliilke who figured In
a shooting affray neatly two ears ago
which hung FianU Shultst's life In the
lisiluvc for a long rorlod and fur
nished a Hosiery which the gill would
not reveal nnd which the police failed
to solve. She inlled to a pedestrian
on Washington avenue late one night,
telling him that a man In the buggy
with her was hint. She was fright
ened, she said, and wanted her com
panion taken lo the hospital. The
pedestrian clambered Into the vehicle
and the Claike woman wnlked inpldly
away down u fide stieet.
Tho obliging stranger found himself
seated alongside the huddled fm in of
a man who had be n shot through the
budy. The Identltv of the horse nnd
huggv was soon aseei tallied and the
woman arrested. She was held until
SbullK had neatly leiovered and vvas
then le'oascd, as ho n fused to Impll-
( ate her and no ev Idenee could be found
to minuet her with tho it line.

There is a man in our midst who Is
not classified umoug the seven won
ders of the wot Id, but ho certainly
deserves to be culled tho tenth or
twelfth wonder. Ills name is Henry
Allen Ilowanl, born twenty-eight
yeais ago in Hlnduostan, the son of
an Irish father and Kngllsh mother.
He is holding foith nt Keystone hall,
Dunmoie, and expects lo lemain in
these parts a few weeks.
It takes lime to tell what he can do.
He gave exhibitions before the staff
of Itoosevelt hospital, New York, Hush
Medical college, Chlengo, and before
semes and scores of leading physicians
of this country and Australia. The
New York Sun, the Chicago Times
Herald, the Cincinnati Knqulrer and
Huffalo Cornier printed extended ac
counts of his career.
And it has been a painless career.
He can drive spikes through his hnnds
and feet, or through the muscles of
nny part of his body without suffering
a twinge of pain. And by nn act of
the will be can restrain the How of
blood from the prints of these wounds
after the nails are wlthdtavvn. Uun
nlng a hat pin through the bleeps
muscle of his aim Is child's plav with
him. lie does it without any mme fuss
than nn ordinal y poison would stick u
pin back of the lapel of his coat.
CAN FHKL NO PAIN.
Kvery pat t of his body Is insensate
as rcgatds pain. He does not drive
nails Into the flesh In the legion of the
vital parts, but ho can be proddled
with a hat pin fiom head to foot and
not feel It.
He has a bcheme that Is odd but Is
determined to cutty It out. Theie Is ii
custom among the natives of Pata
gonia to elect a kitiR every ten years,
I'nder their constitution the aspirant
for royal honors must undergo a civil
service examination that only men like
Howard would eaie to tnke. The man
who stands tho most tottuie without
flinching i ec elves the highest pen ont
iigo. They do such gruesome things
as nailing him to a tree with splinters
"f hard wood, and ptod him with
spent s under tho arm jilts and between
the toes.
He Is confident ho w 111 w in the
throne of Patagonia, nnd as the king
has tho most absolute sovereignty
there, he will levy tar enough to make
him wealthy for life, and vacate the
kingdom. The present ruler of thnt
beautiful Innd has three jears more to
serve and the examination takes jilnce
a month oi so befoie he goes out of
oillce.
Mr. Ilowanl Is in this country not
quite four months. Ho vvas under the
management of a man who did not
tie.it him fnhlv. and he left htm. 1U
will give inhibitions In the city during
the next two weeks. Ho drives spikes
Ihtough his feet Into a piece of plnnk
eighteen inc lies long nnd wnlks around
with these hanging to his soles Af
ter ho jiulls the splices out the blood
will (low if he eh sites It. and will not
If ho wishes it not to. The wounds
heal up In a few bouts.
CANNOT POISON HIM.
He never cnrbollzos nr dlslnfee ts nny
nf these spikes or plus that go Into
Ills flesh. He Is pi oof against blood
poisoning. This was Attested nion
thnii once when tho natives .sent poi
son daits Into his anatomi. This an
aesthetic quality Is not the effect of
nn accident. To the best of his knovi
odeg ho was bom thnt way. He on'ul
never bo made tn feel pain When he
glow up ho Joined the Knsllsh at my
and was thrown from his horse one
day. fineluilng the thigh bone of the
light leg. He did not knutv ne was
hurt until ho tried to walk. He was In
the hosoltal only a few weeks. The
luoken parts glow together very ta
pidh. He Is possessed of pieat jihyslrnl
strength. With a spike stuck through

No Carpet House in Scianton carries as large a line of Lino
leums as we do. This we know is true. We carry Linoleums
in all widths up to four yards wide.
Inlaid Linoleums
A special lot, solid color, clear through to the back, these we are
selling out at $1.00 a jd. Our regular line is 81.25 a yd.
English Inlaid Linoleums
For beauty of color and design these are without a doubt the
finest goods in the market. The Knglish were the original
Linoleum makers, which perhaps explains why these goods are
somewhat superior lo ours. $l,o0 a yd. and well worth it.
Corticene
This is the original Linoleum. Some prefer it to the inlaid. 73c
and 85c a yd. We carry linoleums in four yard widths as low as
50c a yd. Tabic 011 Cloths 10c a yd.
