TVheo Mr. Ross C. Duffy, of No. IS Rus sell avenue. Nashua. N. H.. was suddenly prostrated by a paralytic shock, the deep est concern was felt throughout the town In which he had been a prominent official. Grand Army men were especially solicit ous, for In the Civil War Mr. Duffy had acted as General Bedell's orderly while serving with Company F. Third Regiment. New Hampshire Volunteer Infantry, and after the war he became a member of General Foster Post. G. A. R-. and rose to be department vice commander. The general anxiety felt about him after his sudden shock In the latter part of 1901, was slightly relieved by the news that he had come out of a state of unconsciousness wblch had lasted for five days, but as week after week went by and he made no further progress, one leg remaining pir alyzed. It was concluded that the highly honored veteran must at best remain a cripple for life. Suddenly to the surprise and delight of every cne Mr. Dun appeared on the street In unmistakably robust health and was overwhelmed by congratulations and in quiries: "The regular treatment.' said Mr. Duffy, "didn't do a bit of good, so far as my par alyzed leg was concerned. My left leg re mained cold and dead, and I had been too active a man to be content to be housed up with one dead leg If there was any pos sible way to cure it. I finally stumbled on help by the merest chance. I got my clue out of a Boston paper from the story of a war comrade. John Hunter, of Chlco, Cal., who had been cured of a desperate attack of locomotor ataxia' hy Dr. "Williams" Pink Pills. I sent for a box of the. pills at once and in less than a month afterward I .too. became a perfectly well man as the result ot uslrur them and t have, remained so ever since. No more vertigo, no more trouble with my stomach, none with my kldnevs; In fact, every organ seems to be doing its proper work. I certalnlv have good reason to be thankful to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." These nllls are sold bv all drurrists 1 thrcuxhout th world. JURY INSTRUCTED TO ACQUIT O'KEEFE. State Fails to Make Case Against Former Deputy Coroner and William Haves. EVIDENCE CONSIDERED WEAK. Patrolman Daniels, Chief Wit ness for State. Says He Re ceived Articles Belong ing to Dead Men. The trial of John D. O'Keefe. formerly Deputr Coroner, and William Hayes, clerk, jointly charged with grand larceny, cloned yesterday with the ending of the State's evidence, when the court In structed the Jury to And a verdict of ac quittal. The Jury " found. Patrolman C. H. Daniels, a brother-in-law of Coroner Funkhouser. was on the stand more than three hours. He was JOHN D. O'KEEFE. Who was yesterday declared not guiltv of grand larceny, the case being decided on the State's evidence. considered the star witness of the prose cution, but his evidence proved a boomer ang when Judge Zachrltz. for the defense, had finished his cross-examination. Daniels said that he had been assigned to the Coroner's office about July 1, 1903, and that his business was to detect any irregularities which might exist. He told of reccltlng various things, which, he thought, were the property of men on whose bodies a Coroner's Inquest had been held. Among the things he estlfled to having received were shoes, revelvers, shaving outfits and watches. He declared that ho had seventeen revolvers at one time, but said that he got the mot of them through trading. AH these articles, ac cording to Daniel, were given to him by Hayes. He testified that tobacco taken from the effects of dead persons was put In a Jar and considered common property. He ncktiow iedged that he had borrowed money from everylody In the office, and that he owed CKeefe 120 at the time that he was testifying. "We were all hall-fellows, well met. In the office," he said. "Dm vou consider snving unon a man ard trjlng to eend him to prion the act of a comrade?' asked Judge Zachrltz. ThV question was ruled out. None of Daniel's testimony connected O'Keefe with any Irregularity, and at the close of the State's caso Judge Taylor In structed the Jury to find a verdict of not guilty. STUDYING REFORM SCHOOLS.

Charles C Cal houn of the Indian Bureau will leave for SL Louis to-motTOw to prepare for the opening of bids at the St. Louis Indian warehouse on general hardware, boots and shoes and medical supplies. The opening of the bids in St. Louis is fruit ot tho successful fight made to share with Chicago as a distributing point for Indian supplies. The Interior Department regards this as the test of St. Louis as a city offering equal advantages with Chi cago in the cost of doing business and in facilities afforded the Government.
