THOUSANDS OF RATS
IN SUNBURY PRISON
Rats by the haudreds and by the
thousands have found a happy home
in the Suubury jail for many gen .ra
tions, bat now their sweet seclusion is
disturbed by the rnde hand of man.
They have romped and roamed at will
through the prisou corridors. In foud
imagination they have grown to re
gard the delightful recesses of that
charming citadel as thair ancesttal
halls. Bat heartless and aupoetio man
has sounded the death knell of the
rodent's fondest dream.
George Stecker, of Mount Carmel.is
the invader. He is a cement contract
or. and is laying concrete floors in the
Northumberland oouuty prison Wood
en floors that have been untouched
since the Jail was built are being torn
op and replaced by the more modern
material.
As the army of workmen have pro
ceeded with tearing np the floors,
thousands of rats have been eucouut
ared. The men have been billing them
off as rapidly as possible, and in the
massacre material assistance has been
rendered by a corps of oompetent dogs.
On Tuesday of last week, according
to actual count, over three thousand
rats were slain. Mr. Stecker and oth
er gentlemen of uudoabted veracity
are authority for this statement.
The merciless destruction of the rats
may form the subject matter for ma
ture contemplation. The long-tailed,
ebon-eyed, nocturnal ranger had be
ootne a fixture at the jail, and every
man or woman or child who has there
in found a haven of rest will never
permit fond remembrauce to dwell up
on the delightful associations there
without expressing well wishes for
the little animals who were suoh close
and constant companions.
Long term guests at this summer and
winter resort who have grown to re
gard conditions there as homelike will
find it an additional hardship to ac
custom themselves to a life without
rata. We cannot believe that the pris
on authorities have any warrant to
thus with impunity add punishment
to the life of the prisoner. Perhaps
they have neglected to devote to this
matter the doe consideration it de
served.
Unhappy felon ! No longer will he
awake daring the long vigils of the
night, and mose
"In the prison cell I sit,
Watol.ing rodents as they flit;
Joy is mine in this old jail.
Squinting at my pet rat's tail."

Over=Work Weakens
Your Kidr.ieys.
Unhealthy Kidneys Make Impure Blood.
| All the blood in your body passes through
your kidneys once every three minutes.
fThe kidneys are your
blood purifiers, they fil
ter out the waste or
impurities in the blood.
If they are sick or out
of order, they fail to do
their work.
Pains, aches andrheu
matism come from ex
cess of uric acid in the
blood, due to neglected
kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
over-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that only urinary
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their begin
ning in kidney trouble.
If you are sick you can make no mistake
by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild
and the extraordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney remedy is
soon realized. It stands the highest for Its

TUCKER DEFENSE TO
TRY FOR AN ALIBI
BOSTON, Jan. 18.—The defense in
the trial of Charles L. Tacker.on trial
for billing Mabel Page,has summoned
at least six and possibly ten new wit
nesses, whose names have never be
fore been mentioned in connection
with the case.
They are relied onto complete the
testimony oil which the defendant's
counsel will base Tucker's alibi. The
names of all these witnesses have been
jealously guarded. Louis White and
Frauk Kimhall are two of them.
White it is said, saw Tucker talking
10 Charles Boarue ou Commonwealth
avenue, shortly before they met Miss
Mabel Walker, the mysteriously miss
ing witness.
White is expected also to tell as
nearly as he can the time he is said to
have passed Edward Page, father of
the murdered woman on his way home
ou that fateful afternoon. Kimball is
a young man employed at the Thorpe
and Marliu store, where Tucker work
ed for a time. He has known Tucker
for several years aud the two young
men were friends.
Kimball is expected to identify the
stick pin found in Tucker's pocket the
evening of his arrest which Amy Rob
erts, the maid at the Page home de
clared was the property of Miss Mabel
Page, as one that Tucker had wheu he
was at work for Thorpe ami Martin.
It has been learned that John Frost,
the boat houseman who saw Tucker
crossing the Western bridge on his
way toward Cutter's corner, will be
the only witness called who saw the
defendant twice during that fateful
hour between 12 .'and one o'clocfc on
the afternoon of the murder.

TEACHING THE HORSE.
Will Learn Anything Hl* Maarlei
Can Perform.
Expert horsemen believe that a hors«
can be taught to do anything that It Is
possible for an animal so formed and
to be utterly fearless. Thus we know
of horses rushing Into battle with a
fearlessness that Is magnificent, al
though In the beginning of their Uvea
they may have been foolishly timid,
■hying at everything unusual that hap
pened to be seen In their travels.
In order to teach a horse fearlessness
he must be accustomed to all sorts of
eights and sounds. He must come to
tnow that because something that he
Bees or hears Is unusual It does not fol
low that It Is harmful, for it Is the un
usual things that frighten him. The
horse Is an animal of one Idea at a
time and Is not able to discriminate, so
say the men who have made a study of
the horse. While he will travel along
quietly close by the roar of a train, he
may tremble at the flutter of a piece of
loose paper flying in the wind. It Is
not the frlghtfulness of the object that
seems to alarm him, but the unfamil
lnrity of it. Horse trainers say that
the mistakes made in "breaking" and
training a colt Is that It is too often
done in the seclusion of some country
road Instead of amid the sights and
sounds that the animal must necessari
ly become familiar with later.
As soon as the horse becomes famil
iar with anything and has learned to
believe that it will not hurt him he
will stand quietly or trot along peace
fully, even though all sorts of noises
and queer sights are about him. Thus
the artillery horse will stand amid the
roar of cannons, being used to the
noise and not knowing that the sound
predicts anguish and death. It Is well
to accustom a horse to unusual sounds
as soon as possible after he is trained
for riding or driving. It renders him
safe and docile, even though he be a
spirited animal. A certain trainer of
horses said that an ideal school for
horses would contain thrashing ma
chines, pile drivers, steam drills, elec
tric, steam and elevated cars, a band
of martini music and a gang of quarry
men blasting rock. A horse that was
drilled among such a bedlam as this
would indeed prove immune to strange
noises. The gentle family horse, petted
by man and child, is not always train
ed to all this, yet lie often makes a use
ful ai'd faithful animal, loved by hie
owner aud evidently making some re
turn of affection.- Detroit Tribune.
MONKEY PRANKS.
The Wn> One Canning Apf Served •
Thlevlnfr Crow.
Recently a monkey got the better of
the common enemy, the carrion crow,
by feigning Illness. He was fastened
to a bamboo pole with a running ring.
When he was on his perch the crows
annoyed him by stealing from bis por
ringer on the ground
One morning they had been specially
disagreeable. He closed his eyes and
feigned a bad illness When his day's
food was brought him the crowe de
scended upon it, and he had scarcely
strength to defend It. By good acting
he managed to capture one of the
crows. To pluck It alive was the ob
vious course. Then, instead of pulling
it to pieces, like the king monkey whom
Kipling and Sir Edward Buck watched
enjoying a similar triumph at Simla,
this monkey tossed the crow into the
air, where Its own companion? fell up
on it and killed It.
Monkeys certainly have a sense of
fun. Darwin need to spend hours
watching a young female orangoutang
in the zoological gardens and was sure
that she had the comic sentiment. She
delighted to put upon her head, like a
cap, a peculiar shaped bowl, which had
a droll effect, and she was sensitive to
the effect which her Joke produced up
on the spectators. Lahore Tribune.

Weak
Hearts
Are due to indigestion. Ninety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart troubla
can remember when it was simple indiges
tion. It is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swellsthe stomach, puffing it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action of
the heart, and in the course of time •hat
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.
Mr. D. Kauble, of Nevada. 0.. says:l hid stomach
trouble and was in a bad state as I had heart trouble
with it.l took Kodol Dyspepsia Cure for about lour
months and it cured me.
Kodol Digests What You Eat

strain and the heart of all pressure.
