In addition to a letter, said to have aroused the suspicion of the United States officers, two railroad checks were found in a coat worn by Schmlut on the day he was killed at DE office. These checks showed that the Ger man was in New York City January 7. Federal officers will examine the contents of the trunks some time to day. Pal Held For Trespassing Chester Martin the companion of Schmidt at the time of the accident, said he had been with the German for nearly a year. Martin is being held at the county jail on a charge of tres passing preferred by Pennsylvania Railroad officers. That Schmidt was a sailor, and was employed on the Kaiser Wilhelni 11, now interned ,is not doubted. Rail road officials believe that he was forced to seek employment and took any job he could find. They have not been able to find any proofs that he was acting as a spy for the German gov ernment. The Department, of Justice of the United States, however, want to be sure of this fact, and will con tinue the investigation until Schmidt's identity is fully established.

Doctors Stand Amazed at Power cf Ben-Opto to Make Weak Eyes Strong-—According to Dr. Lewis Guaranteed to Strengthen Eyesight 50% In One Week's Time in Many Instances A Free Prescription You Can Hnve l'lllcd and I'sc at Home Philadelphia, Pa.—Victims of eye strain and other eye weaknesses, and those who wear glasses, will be glad to know that according to Dr. Lewis there is real hope and help for them. Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored by this remarkable prescription and many who once wore glasses say they have thrown them away. t One man says, after using it: "I was almost blind. Could not see to read at all. Now I can read everything without my glusses and my eyes do not hurt any more. At night they would pain dreadfully. Now they feel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me." A lady who used it says: "The atmos phere seemed hazy with or without glasses, but after using this prescrip tion for 15 days everything seems clear. I can read even fine print without glasses." Another who used it ?ays: "I was bothered with eye strain caused by overworked, tired eyes which induced fierce headaches. I have worn glasses for several years both for distance and work, and with out them 1 could not read my own name on an envelope or the type writing on the machine before me. I can do both now and have discarded my long distance glasses altogether. I can count the fluttering leaves on thfe trees across the street now, which for several years have looked like a dim green blur to me. I cannot ex press my joy at what it has done for me." It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a reasonable time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared tlie trouble and expense of ever getting glasses. Bye troubles of many descriptions may bo wonderfully benefited by the use of this prescription. Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of Bon- Opto tablets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of a glass of water and let it dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eyes two to four times dally. You should notice your eyes clear up perceptibly right from the start and inflammation and redness will quick ly disappear. If your eyes bother you even a little it is your duty to take steps to save them now before it is too late. Many hopelessly blind might have saved their sight if they had cared for their eyes in time. Note: Another prominent Physician to whom the above article was submit ted. said: "Yes, the Bon-Opto prescrip tion is truly a wonderful eye remedy. Its constituent ingredients are well known to eminent eyo specialists and widely prescribed by them. 1 have used it very successfully In my own practice on patients whose eyes were strained through overwork or liiislit glasses. I ran highly recommend it in case of weak, watery, aching, smarting, itch ing. burning eyes, red lids, blurred vision or for eyes inflamed from ex posure to smoke, sun, dust or wind. It is one of the very few preparations I feel should be kept on hand for regular use in almost every family." Bon-Opto, referred to above, Is not a patent medi cine or a secret remedy. It is an ethical preparation, the formula being printed 011 the package. The manufacturers guarantee it to strengthen eyesight 50 per cent, in one week's time in many Instances or refund the money. It can be obtained from any good druggist and Is sold in this city by H. C. Ken nedy, Croll Keller and other druggists.
