violated Ills nleee. the D-year-old
dnuRhtcr of Mr. and Mrs. John Sherl
dnn. After the verdict was rendered
District Attorney Jones told the jurors
lie was somewhat astonished at their
action and he then presented a sworn
i.tr-teincnt to the jury suttlnR forth
that Woodbridgo was heretofore ar
ltsted on a similar charge, two little
Kills aged ten years being his alleged
victims on the former occasion.
Their mothers decided not to prose
cute him because of the disgrace ft
would bring on the children. The
ourt wns visibly displeased with the.
erdlct, too. although Judge Edwards
j ef rained from malting nny comment
on the action of the Jurors.

of a pair of ooern glasses from tho
residence of George 15. Hand, on Jeffer
son avenue, last February, was yes

against his mother, 'Mrs. Catherine
Kllpatrick, which was based on the
same transaction, was disposed of by
taking a verdict of not guilty. The
son having Iieen acquitted of the
charge of Inrccny, there was nothing
to sustain the charge of receiving.
DAI.KV NOT OUILTV.
Patrick Daley, of Minooka, who wns
tried for attempting to criminally as
sault Mrs. Michael D. Walsh at her

fendants. ZUFFLT ACPUITTRD.
Peter JCuftll was acquitted of a charge
of assault and battery upon n public
officer. W. A. Sturdovnnt, a pound
keeper In the Tenth ward, was the
prosecutor. About a year ago there
was some trouble at the pound, a num
ber of women endeavoring to take out
Impounded cows by force. Hturdevant
alleges that while the trouble was on.
Xuilll pinched bis arm and took a re
volver away from him.
Children are sometimes told, when they
ore bad, that ghost9 and other dreadful
things will get them. Grown-up people
know better, but it would be a good thing
if women could be made to understand
tliat terrible results
will follow neglect
' of any ailment that
''comes under the
general
head of
"female troubles." A pain In the side, or
back, a disagreeable drain, n bearing-down
sensation, headache, nervousness, weak
ness in the distinctly feminine organs, bad
complexion and loss of flesh are forerun
ners of final collapse. Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription is a specific for weak
women. cures. In n great majority of
cases the patient can treat herself at home,
and obnoxious local examinations can be
avoided. In a few bad cases it is wise for
the sufferers to write to Dr. R. V. 1'ierce
liimself, at Uuffalo. N Y., and he will give
full advice by mail free. He is consulted
daily by great numbers of women through
out the world, and his advice is founded
upon wide-spread experience. All corre.
spondencc is treated by him as sacredly
confidential. His "Favorite Prescription"
M non-alcoholic, and does not create a crav
ing for strong drink. It contains no opium
Dr pther narcotic. It is perfectly harmless
rn any condition of the system, No medi
cine Is equal to it in any respect for dis
eases of women. Therefore, accept no
substitute for this world -famed remedy,
though it be urged upon you as being
"just as good."
Mr. Mary IS. Jones, of 5o Madison Avenue,
YpsilnU, Mich., writes:
"ii
was troubled with
female weakness, and after taking three bottles
of Dr. rierce's Favorite Prescription I am free
from pains. I bad suffered for two years when I
begin taking your medicine. I could not wallc
cross my room without suffering dreadful pains.
now I do all my housework and walk where I
Jneaae,"
Constipation and biliousness are radi
cally cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. They don't (jrlpej they never fail.
Wm
- lOHANN HOFFS Malt Extract Is a
J valuable product and tn my Imme
diate hands here It ha3 done much good
service. In one case, I believe, it
stopped a man, an editor of a weekly
paper, from going rapidly to his grave
from wearing of overwork. I havo
prescribed the
JOHANN HOFPS
MALT EXTRACT
a great deal in my practice and always
with satisfaction and good results."
Thomas Hay, M. D,, Cape May, N. J.
The accused admitted tho charge, but
said ho took tho revolver away from
Sturdovnnt to prevent the latter from
using It on tho women. The verdict
was not guilty and the county was
directed to pny the costs.
James Ford was tried before Judge
Kdwards on a charge of perjury pre
ferred by John F Dmigher. Both men
reside at Old Forge. It Is alleged that
Ford was employed as a bartender by
P. J. Conwav, of Old Forge, who wns
arrested and taken before Justice of
the Peace It. Willis Iteeso, to answer a.
charge of selling liquor without a li
cense. At the hearing It Is nsscrted
that Ford swore that he was employed
by Doughcr. not by Conway, thereby
making the first named answerable for
the violation of the law.
Doughcr says that Ford committed
perjury when he swore before the al
derman and had him arrested. The
prosecution failed to produce tho dock
et of Justice lleese showing that Ford
was sworn at the hearing and a con
viction could not be secured. The
jury went out to dispose of 1he costs
nnd divided them equally between the
prosecutor and defendant.
JFIIKOWITZ TRIED.
Harry Jurkowltz was tried In No. 2
on a charge of having set lire to a
hotel on the Boulevard at Throop,
which he occupied. The lire took place
on November 15 last and tho building
was entirely destroyed.
Several Lithuanians living in the
vicinity testified to having been awak
ened about 4 o'clock on the morning of
that day and discovering that the
hotel wns on Are. The commonwealth
attempted to show that the defendant
and John Lahotsky, the owner of the
building, were about the hotel remov
ing goods for a considerable length of
time before giving an alarm or at
tempting to extinguish the fire.
Lahotsky testified that ubout tho
time mentioned he was awakened at
his home across the street from tho
hotel and In looking in tho direction of
tho latter building he saw clouds of
smoke issuing from It. Thereupon he
crossed the street and entered the hotel,
llnding that tho ceiling and wall near
the chimney In the kitchen were on
fire. He examined the other rooms and
stated that the furnishings were In
place nnd apparently nothing removed.
He denied assisting In carrying out
nrtlcles from the building and said that
the effects seen and testified about by
several witnesses, did not belong to
the hotel but to neighbors living near,
who feared that their houses would
catch. Pome things, he said, wore re
moved from bis own home nnd after
wards replaced. Other witnesses testi
fied to having assisted in carrying out
the furniture, etc., under the direction
of the defendant and that the (Ire at
that time was so slight that it could
have been extinguished with one pail
of water.
Court directed a verdict of not guilty
on the ground that there was Insuffic
ient evidence to warrant a conviction.
It appearing from the evidence that tho
fire wns accidental. O'P.rlcn i Kelly
represented the defendant.
OTHER CASKS.
Tobias Hurlte was tried before Judge
Edwards for using the registered bot
tles of A, M. Morse and A. Schroeder.
The Jury was out deliberating on tho
case when court adjourned.
John Hoffman was tried on a charge
of embezzlement preferred by S. N.
Stetler. The latter said he gave Hoff
man u $'.30 diamond ling to sell for him
nnd the defendant said It was nn out
nnd out sale to him. The Jury was out
trying to harmonize the testimony
when court adjourned.
John Hoyden, of Old Forge, wns
charged by Constable Matthew Ream
with selling liquor without a license.
The commonwealth's case was weak. A
verdict will bo returned this morning.
When court adjourned for the day,
Margaret Kelley was on trial in No.
'', charged with assaulting and batter
ing George Herron.
Stny of Execution Released.
Ry agreement of the attorneys, Vos
burg and Dawson for the plaintiff, nnd
:. N. AVillaril for the defendant, the
stay to the execution In tho case of Mc
Phorson against Hendrlckson Rros.,
granted Monday, was yesterday re
leased nnd the goods sold at sheriff's
sale. The money was turned Into
court pending the disposition of the
bankruptcy proceedings which caused
the stay.
The release of the stay was forced
by the fact that much of the goods
In dispute were of a perishable nature.
An Action in Trespass.
Fiank Cherri yesterday began an ac
tion against the Sterrick Creek Coal
company to recover damages for In
Jury done to his land near the defend
ant company's colliery at Jessup.
It is alleged that the company has
pumped mine water onto his land and
has also washed culm onto It, which
has been of great Injury to him, Cherri
says, and he wants to be compensated.
The plaintiff Is represented by Attor
neys A. A. Vosliurg und Joseph Jeffries,
