THRILLING MURDER TALES RECORD
ED IN THE OLD LAW BOOKS.
Peculiar Actions of a Disinterred Corpto.
On Man Dream, of a Crime Before It
fa Committed A Mother 8m Her Boa
, Killed ami ArttijM nis Death.
Law report of the Sixteenth and Seven
teenth crntaries contain numerous refer
ences to superuntarni occurrences in court
anil on the scaffold. One of the most re
mnrkable rwortls of this kind Is connected
with a murder trial which took place in
Encland rnrly in tbo reign of the first
Charles. Sir John Mnynnrd, one of the
first lawyers of the century, is the author.
It j for the supomnttirnl events of the trial,
and in his quaint preface to his notes he
says he "thought good to report the evi
dence which wns giren, which many did
henr, thut the memory thereof mitrht not
be lost by miscarriage of papers or other
wise." Odo Julian Korkett, a farmer's wife, had
died, autt'at the coroner's inquest evidence
was iriven proving that the woman's throat
had been cnt from ear to ear. At first the
Jury favored o vcrdictof felo do se, and tbe
body was ititerred; but rumors became
frcnrnil point'ini; to foul play, antl the body
was exhunv-d. Thirty tiny after the death
tbe Jury uwmbled before the body, and
four suspected persons were brought ia.
The only evident agtuost the prisoners
was that they slept in on adjoining room,
and that no one had passed that room;
"therefore, if she did not murder herself,
they must be the murderers."
QCEKR ACTIONS OP A CORPSE.
W'bat took place at the remarkable post
mortem inquiry may best be described in
tbe words of a witness at tbe subsequent
trial, who was described as "an ancient
and crave person, minister to tbo parish
where this murder was committed." This
estimable ireutleniHn said: "They (tbe
prisoners) did touch the deBd body, where
upon th brow of the dead, which was be
fore a livid and rarriou color, beun to
have a dew or irrntlo sweat ari-m upon it,
which Increased by degrees till the swot
ran down in drops upon the face, the brow
turned and chanced to a lively color, and
the tlead opened one of her eyes nnd shut
It aipim, whk'h she did three several times.
She liken ie thru.-t out the rinir or mar
riace linger three times, nnd pulled it in
attain, nnd the linger dmpped blood on the
floor."
XutuniMv enough sue'; reniHrknMe evident-it
as this mils rec i.,' J with some sus
picion by the court, although the wit
ness, to ainiii quote Sir John Maynanl,
"wuk a reverend perwui alxut CO years of
ai?, as roulil be kruessed. His testimony
was itelivrn dcravely and temperately, but
to the Kn-iit, admiration of the auditory."
Ample miilirinnti.iii of an obviously im
partial character was, however, furthcom
ing', und the "uimintkm'' turntsl to hor
ror, so much u that the prisoners were
convicted, and two of them sullered death
at tbe bund of tbo common hangman.
Neitherof t lie victims, one of whom was an
sued woman, could ever be prevailed upou
to iiifes any rouiplielty in the crime.

A WAITRESS FOR A DAY.
ROMANCE OF A $50 BILL THAT
HANGS IN A BEAUTY'S ROOM.
A Pretty Story of City People Itouchlug
It In a Wild and Unsettled "Part or tba
Big West A SUter-ln-I-aw Takes the
Place of Servant for One Meal.
In the pretty morning room of a certain
young woman in thia city there hangs on
the wall a tto bill, framed Hrst by a wide
gray mat and edged with a narrow rim of
scarlet plush picked out in gold. Thereby
hangs a tale. One of the Kaster weddings
was that of the young woman's sister.
She married a civil engineer, who, straight
way after tbe manner of civil engineers,
rushed off to Arizona to survey a copper
mine alsaut to be or already opened in that
distant territory. His bride accompanied
him. and the sister was induced to go also
for purpose... as she put it, of "travel, ex
ploration ami adventure."
Things were not altogether bad out
among the Indians; the mine was on th(
line of n railroad; they had carried with
them a good many home belongings; a
house was secured, such as it was. and a
more or tes proper establishment set up.
The summer and the sister stay were
nearly nt an end, when oue afternoon Mr.
Tom. the husband and brother-in-law.
sent word from the works that the Knglish
member of the firm which was developina
the mine had arrived suddenly for a few
hours' stay and he would bring him up to
dinner. This announcement created some
consternation
The cook was a half breed who was ex
celleut within his limits, but he knew
nothing even of the rudiments of but
leritig. As a matter of fact the fam
ily were accustomed to dine en buffet.
This, freely translated, meant frequent
trips on the part of one diner or an
other to the chest at the side of the room,
which by courtesy was called a sideboard.
"Hut an Kuglishman, you know, Nell.''
said Mrs. Tom plaintively, "expect at
dinner to be served if be takes that meal iu
an Indian jungle. With our canned soups
and lobster, nnd the superb joint which
Nelson ran get up, we ran offer a most pre
sentable menu, but what shall we do for
some one to change the plHtes?"
A MAIU FIK AS HOl lL
.Miss Neil immediately begged to take the
role for a single appearauee. "It will be
no end of fun." she argued, "and 1 warrant
neither you nor Tom nor the Englishman
has ever txsn served as I shall serve yoo
to-night. I've always conteuded it took a
high degree of intelligence to create a peP
feet butler or butleress," she added with f
laugh, "and I'd immensely like to show
what culture can do with a dinner tray." j
In the end, though with many niisgiv;
logs on .Mrs. Tom's part, the plan was ar
ranged. A note was dispatched to Mr
Tom warning him not to mention his
sister-in-law in any way that all wouhl
Is- explained hirer. It was a few moment
after their guest, bad been welcomed that
n capissl and uprotied figure appeared in
the diHirway announcing quietly, "Dinner

Nothing was said, however, till the dote

At this juncture nslight ratfTing of glass
ware behind thescreeu warned Mm. To-m
that her story was taking effect, and with
a ifleam of mischief, at which her hushand
could have groaned aloud, she proceeded:
"She is engaged to lie married to a very
estimable young man iu New York, tbe
wedding day was set over a year atro, when
six weeks Is-fore tbe date arrived the coin
ing groom was stricken blind in an hour,
lie has been under treatment ever since,
slowly retraining his sight, and she, poor
girl, is saving every penny of her wages
against the time when be must leave tbe
hospital. I think she means to marry him
as soon as possible and support him until
he can get work again. It is quite pathetic
nu interesting her ilevotion." j
Hut Mr. Tom could -stand the strain ho
longer, and proposed a return to the p ,r
lor The Knglishmnn, however, did i nt
drop the subject at once, asking a numl r
of questions about Ellen and her "co n
p.'iny." He left, as was expected, soon if
ter dinner, and Miss Nell was free to pour
the vials of her wrath upon her wicked
sister's head, an occupation in which sl'.e
was ably seconded by Mr. Tom when he j
turned from putting their recent "guAt
aboard his train
The end. however, was not vet. Witf in
a fortnight Mrs. Tom received a note frytn
the Knglishman. dated at New York in
which be said that he had been much'fm
pressedwith ihe loyalty and devotion of
her mnid, Kllen. who was undoubted'' a
most worthy young person, and he went
on to lg Mrs. Tom to find some way to
bestow the inrlosed-a . bill-upon her
to aid in hrr courageous and praiseworthy
effort.
Thus retribution came to Mrs Tom.
She was overcome at what she had done,
and then- was no totnt irtanie way out of
it. It was imp os,ibie to explain to the
J'.nglihhnian how he had Us-i, deceived

Who rules in this town ?
Depends or, the question up.
The lamp chimney ques
tion w hat sort do you break ?
Whatever sort your dealer
deals in.
How, do you think, he
selects his chimneys ?
He buys the se that cost him
leasts he can get the regular
price for them ; and the faster
they break the more he sells,
That's how he- reasons.
Tell him you want Mac
beth s " pearl top " or " pearl
glass, tough glass, transpar
ent, clear, not foggy, fine, of
right shape and uniform. Tell
him you'll pay him a nickel
more a piece, and that will
cover his extra costs twice
over. Tell hir 1 you don't pro
pose to break any more. Try
your nana at ruling.

You put water on tb burning timbers,
not on the smoke. And if you have
catarrh you should attack the disease in
the blood, not In the nose. Remove the
impure cause, and tht local effect sub
sides. To do this, tal e Hood's Saraapa-
nlla, tbe great blood purifier, which radt
cally and permanently cures catarrh. It
also strengthens the nerves. Ha sure to
get only Hood's Saras parilla.
