PAIR OF JAPANESE
WERE FOUND DEAD
NEW YOKK, May 10.-Side by side
in the morgue a Japanese woman ami
man lie dead today. The man has a
ballet wound behind the left ear and
the woman has a wound iu her breast
and another in her head.
The names of the dead pair are un
known but the police are convinced
that the man shot and killed the wo
man aud then committed suicide in
the Dry Dock hotel where their bodies
were found.
They registered there as "Myrou
Lewis and wife. New York," yester
day morning. In killing the woman
the Japanese set the room on fire but
extinguished it with his bare hands,
burning himself severely, lie then end
ed his own life.
Poet and philosopher was the Jap
anese and from verses and quotations
from Huxley and Spencer found in hie
pocket it is believed that he aud the
woman may be the victims of a love
tragedy. Some of the poems were writ
ten iu English, German and in Jap
anese.
One of the Japanese poems translat
ed, real as follows: "My darling, 1
cannot live without thee. "
Weep no more, my little darling. I bep
thee ;
Weep no more, for I'll return to thee.
Dry thy eyes, although the seas divide
us.
Sweet words of love shall reach thee
yet from me."
The Jap was handsomely dressed anc
the woman with him was neatly gown
ed. The man had the bearing of a sol
dier. Iu his pockets was also found a
racing card, indicating that he hac
made several wagers at the race track,
One of the quotations of the man'!
own writing read :
"woman never cares for a man unti
he ceases to care for her."
The police are trying to identify the
bodies. There are no clues except thai
the mau probably bought his hat it
San Francisco, the hat mark bearing
the name of that city.
The Busy flan's Garden.
Most busy men leave home early in
the morning and get back late in the
evening. But they generally have one
or two hours of daylight and Satur
day afteruoous in which they can fiud
health, pleasure aud profit.by digging
it out of the front and back yards.
The only reason more men do nol
have fine yards and gardens is because
they are too lazy. Here are some sug
gestions for those who desire to work
small city lots:
Iu the front some climbers will he
wanted to drape and shade the porcti
or veranda. For a south side or end the
Virginia Creeper will give a dense
shade, aud there is nothing better foi
the purpose ; on the north east or west,
may be planted Clematis paonlculats
or C. Jackmanui, and Hall's Honey
suckle is very desirable. If the house
is a brick or stone the Japan Ampelop
sis or Boston Ivy can be planted at the
base of the wall and it will quickly
furnish a large space with its shinint
green foliage ;if the house is a wooder
one the same viue can be planted tc
run in ttie foundation wall and be
kept restricted to that. This producei
a very pleasing effect.
There is no room at the front of the
lot for large trees, but near the comei
most remote from the house may be
plauted an Althea or Rose of Sharon,
or a Japan Quince. The rest of the
front is free—merely the lawn. Op
posite the middle of the house and or
the far side of the lot near the line
may be a little group of flowering
shrubs, say, Weigela roses, Spirea
Binardi and Hardy Hydrangea; thes»
will give bloom from early to late.
On the back lot may be trained some
iiardy climbing vines, or if not thej
will be covered by foliage or shrub
bery. Around the lines of the bacfe
lot,sides and end,make a garden bord
er for liardy shrubs aud flowering
plants. This border may be a uuifoin
width of four or five feet, but the
straight, lines will look somewhat still
so. instead of running the line of the
border straight, make it waving, run
ning in and out,in ea-v.gentle curves,
making the border from four to seven
feet in width and there will be from
seventy live to a Hundred feet of it in
length, according to the size of the
lot. Her.- are to be planted flowering
shrubs aud har ly flowering plants.
Your nursery man will tell you what
is best suited to your climate. The
rest of the gr innd is to be kept an
open lawn.
(letting New Business.
The old-fashioned idea that it would
be contrary to the ethics of banking
for a conservative financial institution
to make a public bid for new business
through newspap r advertising has
been pretty effectively exploded. Bank
advertising is almost as com moo iiow
adays as shoe or grocery advertising,
aud equallv effective. The Philadel
phia Record cites the exi»erienoe of
the Commercial Staff hank of Grand
Island, Nebraska, as typical. By four
years of dignified publicity it has
built up a volume of deposits equal to
that which it took a competitor 20
years to accumulate. It is as easy to
influence people in the disposition of
their savings a-* it is to guidu them in
their spending
SENT ELEVEN
TO THE GALLOWS
The death a week ago, of Captain
Thomas Aldersou, of Devil's Lake, N.
D , removed one of the few surviving
figures of the bloody Mollie Maguire
Kebelliou iu the authracite region
Aldersou was chief of the Heading
Goal aud Iron Police, aud iu his cam
paign against the Mollies, he co-op
erated with Jaines McParlau, the
famous detective whoso discoveries re
sulted iu six haugings at in
one day. McParlau, like Aldersou,
was threatened scores of times with
assassination, but lie is still living in
the West aud is hale and prosperous.
Captain Aldersou,who held hisoffice
until ISS7, was credited with bavin#
made the suggestion to President Frank
lin B. Uowen.of the Reading,that Alan
Pinkertou be employed to expose the
Mollies. It was the result of the call
ing iu of the Pinkertou men that Mc-
Parlau, who became widely known
throughout the anthracite region a*
"James McKeuua," became an actor j
in the terrible tragedy.
It was iu February 187f>, that Cap
tain Aldersou's most delicate work
against the Mollies,was accomplished.
By that time, after his long residence
in the coal region, suspicion had be
come aroused as to the identity of Mc-
Parlau, and it was necessary to guard
him with the greatest vigilance for
fear he should be murdered and all the
results of the investigation during the
past years be lost.
The men who had so long carried
the affairs of the county with a high
hand were now iu a state of demor
alization. They apparently realized
that they were at the end of their
career. The prison and the gallows
loomed up before them. They were
determined to destroy all evidence of
their criminal acts. The books and
papers of the society were burned and
it was resolved to murder McParlau.
A letter was sent to the detective from
police headquaitersiu order to deceive
the Mollies. McParlau had all along
pretended to be a fugitive from just
ice, but to be ou friendly terms with
Aldersou and Captain Linden, who
were protecting him. This letter ad
vised him to flee. McParlan received
and opened the letter 111 company with
a crowd of Mollies.
"I'll not budge wan single inch to
save them all from perdition!" ex
claimed McParlau after reading the
letter aloud to the crowd of Mollies
"I am innocent. I'll only be arrested
anyhow. An" if others stand by. why
shouldn't I?"
The Mollies applauded him for this
exhibition of mock courage. They
would have acted iu an entirely differ
ent manner had they known that war
rants had already beeu sworn out for
their arrests.
But the suspioion against the de
tective could not be allayed. Plots
were laid to kill him and throw his
body down a deserted mine shaft, at
which hiding place it would never he
found. Deunis Dowling.a barly Mol
lie was then designated to kill Mc-
Parlau, but all these plans were frus
trated by Captain Aldersou.
Th 6 summary of the work of Captain
Aldersou and those who were associated
with him, shows that twelve Mollies
were fouud guilty of murder in first
degree ; four of murder in the secoud
degree; four of being accessory to the
murder; six of perjury iu establishing
the familiar alibi, and mauy others of
assault and battery.
Eleven of these men were hanged.
This is a record it is believed few
officers of the law can equal.

Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidneys. If you are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and scald
ing pain in passing it, and overcomes tha f
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to
go often during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won

DR. A. W. CHASE'S NERVE PILLS.
112 Overwork'tho stomach, or subject
it to the depressing in fiance of worry,
care, or constant excitement, and it
gives out Ask it to digest anything,
everything, at any time, and in half
the time required, and, like an over
driven horse, it balks. Tiie re a-on for
this lies in the close nerve relationship
between the brain and stomach and
the fact that the irritation of either
organ means the distress of the other.
Nature intended the stomach should
have regular hours —a time to work, a
time to rest—aud when you break up
this habit you upset the whole arrange
ment. The stomach nerves become ex
hausted, the glands refuse to act, the
food does not digest—lies heavy, ler
ments, and repeats. There is pain, gas
forms, bloating occurs, the heart he
comes irregular and nervous, iriitable
feeling sets in. This is a nervous
dyspepsia aud Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerv

"Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Fills are

fearfully dizzy by spells and very ner
