Mrs. Mary E. Kvnns, wife of Henry
Evnns, proprietor of the French Koof
hotel on "Washburn street, died at 10
o'clock yesterday morning ns a result
of taking' an overdose of lnudanum.
The circumstances In connection with
tho case have been misstated, nnd the
relatives of the dead woman nre much
grieved over the reports set ntloat yes
terday to the effect that the woman
committed suicide.
Mrs. Kvnns had been suffering for n
long time as u result of an operation
pet formed many months ago, and on
several occasions had tnken laudanum
to quiet the pain which she suffered
fiom. On Monday evening Mrs. Evans
retlied early on account of not feeling
well, and about 10 o'clock called her
husband to the loom and asked for a
glass of water.
Mr. Kvnns compiled with his wife's
request, after which he returned to the
barroom nnd continued In his usual
woik until after midnight. Ho did not
notice anything wiong with her. ex
cept that she seemed to bo suffering
intense pain. When he teturncd to the
mom to retire, after closing the hotel,
the woman appeared to be bieathing
heavily.
Several members of the family wvio
summoned and an erfort was made to
arouse her, but without avail. Drs.
IMIne and Kvins weie called, and dis
covered that Mis. Kvans had taken an
oveidose of laudanum. They set to
woik to tellcve her. but their efforts
were not successful and she succumbed
to the elfec's or the drug.
When seen by a Tribune man Inst
evening, the husband stated that so far
as he knew his wife never intended to
end her life, and merely drank the
laudanum to pioduce sleep and ease
tho pain. They weie man led one year
ago today, nnd expected to celebrate
the event with a social gathering, pro
viding her Illness would penult of such
an event.
Mrs. Kvnns was the daughter of
Oeoige Kv.nis, who conducted the
French roof for many years, nnd was
a well-known young woman, having
resided on 'Wnshlniin street since child
hood. She was twenty-five years of
nge. and is survived by a child by a
former husband. The funeral arrange
ments have not yet been completed.

TROUBLE AT A WEDDING.
An Assyrian wedding was conducted
in Henncssy court, Monday, and dur
ing the celcbrntlon several children be
camo Involved In a quarrel. Mrs.
Martha Scoff, of 919 Scranton street,
tried to net as peacemaker, but Ferris
Flkany wouldn't stand for that, and
proceeded to take a hand In tho mix
up by abusing Mrs. Scoff.
Ho even went so far as to commit an
assault upon tho woman and tore her
clothing. A warrant wns Issued by Al
derman John for Flknny's arrest, and
Abrahnm Corey, a step-brother of tho
defendant, also cut some figure In tho
argument.
The case was finally settled hy Fl
kany paying tho costs and compensat
ing Mrs. Scoff for tho damage done to
her wenrlng apparel. The charges
against Corey were withdrawn.
UUBUEK COLLECTION DAY.
Every child attending school In the
city will , take tho trouble today to
gather up around their respective
homes nil the old rubbers that have
been ciibt aside, and tomorrow bring
them to school, where they will be de

who convert tho material to other uses.
The rooms formerly occupied by the
rummage sale on Spruce street have
been engaged for receiving the con
tributed articles and anything from
a rubber overshoe to a rubber neck
will bo received. Tho old worn out
shoes are useless to the owner .but
when several hundred pounds are se
cured quite a sum can be realized from
the sale.
ANOTHER FALSE ALARM.
Th alarm- from box 3G, corner of
Jackson street and Lincoln avenue, nt
10.-10 o'clock yesterday morning, was
false, and was the result of the pranks
of several small boys, who evidently
did not leallze what they were doing.
When the Franklins, Columblns,
Eagles and Hooks reached the box
there was great consternation. Hun
dreds of persons gathered. The mis
chievous urchins hnd broken the class
on the box and turned the key, and
when they heard the Hip fighters com
ing they ran away nnd mingled with
the eiowd.

WW
The woman follows the man of her choice though the path leads out of Eden
into a world untrodden and untried. "What is her reward ? Many a time when
her health is broken by the burdens she has borne for the man's sake, her reward
is to see him turn from her to seek rosier cheeks and brighter eyes. It is man's
nature to crave beauty in the wifo as in the maid. And what woman is there,
who would not be happy to keep her maiden bloom when motherhood has
crowned her wifely happiness ? Some women seem to have found this secret of
perpetual youth. " Age cannot wither them." They have learned that fairness
of face and form depend upon the health, and that the general health depends
upon the local womanly health. They establish regularity of the periods. They
dry the disagreeable drains which draw the luster from the eyes and the
vermilion from the lips as well as sap the body's strength. They quench the
internal fires of inflammation in which the very elements of beauty are con
sumed. They heal the ulcer which gnaws into the very life. They walk the
world as wonders women exempt from the sacrifice to love. How have they
done this ? By the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which maJces weak
ivomen strong and sick women well. It matters not how weak the woman is, or
how sick she is, " Favorite Prescription " will cure the womaly ills that vex her ;
will round out the sunken curves of her form, put light in her eyes, tint her
cheeks with health's carnation, and make her a glad and happy woman. Hun
dreds of thousands of women testify to the truth of these statements. Let every
ailing woman read the two testimonials given below and remember that these two
women speak for moro than half a million other women cured by the skill of
Dr. Pierce and by the use of his " Favorite Prescription."
There is no alcohol in " Favorite Prescription " and it is entirely free from
opium, cocaine and other narcotics.
IMBE$RBBABLE MISERY.
"Words cannot tell what I suffered for thirteen
years with uterine trouble and dragging - down
pains through my hips and back," writes Mrs. John
Dickson, of Grenfell, Assiniboia Dist., N. W. Ter.
"I can't describe the misery it was to be on my feet
long at a time. I could not eat nor sleep. Often
I wished to die. Then I saw Dr. Pierce's medi
cines advertised and thought I would try them.
Had not taken one bottle till I was feeling well.
After I had taken five bottles of 'Favorite Pre
scription ' and one of ' Golden Medical Discovery '
I was like a new woman. Could eat and sleep and
do all my own work. I would entreat of any lady
suffering from female weakness to give Dr Pierce's
Prescription a fair trial, for I know the benefit she
will receive."
