MAGNESIA
Asolution of Citrate of^Magnesia in which we use^water from the celebrated^Pipestone Springs.
Theimpossibility of pro^^ducing a stable solution of^Citrate of Magnesia with^water f romvarying sources^and the further fact that^city water, when distilled^even under a high pres^^sure, refused to part with^its odor, induced us to con^^duct a series of experi^^ments, which resulted in^the discovery that Pipe^^stone water, from its pecu^^liar mineralization, was^admirably adapted for^combination with Citrate^of Magnesia.
Forprotection we have^adopted a pipe and stone,^the imprint of which, in^red, will appear on each^bottle. Look for it.

Holmesat One Time During the Trial^Sobbed Like a Child.
THENOOSE IS TIGHTENING
MissYork* Cave th* Prisoner the^Marble Heart The Case Will^Be Submitted on Argu^^ment Alone.
12X. Main St., Butte.
Philadelphia.Oot. II.^For about 30^minutes to-day the nerve which eVl^men have marveled at forsook Holmes,^and he sank his head into .his bands^and sobbed like a child. MeanwnUs^the woman he persists in calling hU^wife and upon whom he had pinned Ms^highest hopes, sat a few yards away^relating a story that slowly 'but surely^tightened the noose around his neck.^Throughout her testimony MM York*,^for such she calls herself, never cncs^bestowed a passing glance upon ths^man she onoe lived with.
Thecase progressed so awlftly to-day^that but few witnesses remain to be^heard before the closing of the com^^monwealth's case. Then the defense^will open, and, despite Holmes' state^^ment that he would himself testify end^also call Miss Yorke, hie counsel pri^^vately stated to-night thai the defense^would offer no defense, but submit the^case on argument alone. The attorney^expressed confidence in his acquittal.^Their fins: victory was gained Ito-nlght.^The defense strenuously objected to the^Introduction of any further evidence^touching the alleged murder of the^children. The Jurymen were tempora^^rily taken to their rooms. Elaborate^argument* followed, and, In the end,^Judge Arnold sustained the contention.
Whenthe privileged persons had^*een admitted to-day to the count there^appeared almost as many women ae^men present. Holmes, as calm and un^^moved as ever, was plaoed in the dock^at 10 o'clock and had a long earnest^colloquy with his counsel. Holmes^was apparently making suggestions.^He appeared brighter and more cheer^^ful than at any time since the trial Ibe-^gan, and after counsel resumed their^seats ihe chatted and laughed with the^count officers.
Thefirst witness -was Sidney L. Sam^^uels, a member of the bar of Fort^Worth, Texas. He invariably referred^to Holmes as the ^Individual.^ Holmes^sml'ed ^woadly whenever the term was^used. District Attorney Graham pro^^duced a note Identified by Mrs. Pltisl^yesterday as the one Holmes pretended^to pay at a aft. Louis bank for which^he took $5,000 from her. Samuels said^the 'body of the note was in his hand^^writing. In the latter part of A\prU.^or early in (May, 1S94, there was in Fort^Worth a man known as H. M. Pratit^overseeing the erection of a three-story^structure, as agent for Benton T. Ly^^man, the supposed owner. Pratt saw^the witness and tried to negotiate a^loan of $16,000 by giving a mortgage on^his property there. The note waa^drawn up and signed Benton T. Ly^^man. Subsequently Pratt claimed to^have lost it and told witness he had^drawn up a second note. The note was^never endorsed, nor the loan made.
Grahamsought to prove the note was^never a legal document. Inspector^Gerry of the Insurance company was^recalled, Graham saying he proposed to^prove by him that Holmes was much^married and Miss Yorke was not his^lawful wife and is therefore Incompet^^ent to testify.
Gerrysaid he saw at the prisoner's^house In Wllllamotte, III., a woman^representing (herself as Mrs. H. R.^Holmes. He identified a photograph of^her. She was not 'Miss Yorke. Last^December witness told Holmes In pris^^on of his visit to Williamette. Holmes^said he wanted to write a letter to his^wife and did so, asking the witness to^mail it. Holmes told witness he depos^^ited $1,000 of the insurance company^money with Mr. lllackiman of Chicago,^his real estate agent, so ^Mrs. Holmes^^could draw upon It. The defense enter^^ed a formal objection to all the evi^^dence of Gerry concerning Miss Yorke,^but it was overruled.
MissYorke, in her testimony, said^she was in St. Louie In 18W and knew^the prisoner under the names of^Holmes and Howard; ^hat when he^was In Jail there she engaged for him^an attorney named T. B. Harvey. She^said she came to Philadelphia in Au^^gust, 1894. The prisoner met her and^they went to a boarding house kept by^Dr. Alcorn and remained there four^weeks. She waa In her room on Sept.^1. Holmes also being at home. Some^one called during the evening to see^him and he went down stairs. When^he oame up be said It was a messenger^from the Pennsylvania railway. After^^wards he said the oafler was B. F.^Pttiei. This was the day before he^left Philadelphia. She said: ^Holmes^went out at half past 10 o'clock in the^morning. He had before mentioned^going away and said he wouM go home^to Indianapolis. We were known here^by the name of Howard. We left on^the 10:13 train. The prisoner remained^with me in Indianapolis for a dwy or^two. Then he went away, saying he^was going to St. Louis. Then he went^with me to my mother's fcome In^Franklin. Ind. From there we returned^to Indianapolis, and a few days after^^ward he went to PhiVuK Iphia. After^we c.inv black from Philadelphia tj In^^dian m - ^ ^^ went ^: n . ^ t.^ H . I. iuis.^an 1 on one of these occasions he said^he was going to meet a man from Fort^W.'rth who was to buy the block In^that city.
Whenh* returned from this trip^he said he ha/I ssM the block for $^^.-^000, $10,000 in cash and t. b.lanie pay^^able semi-annually. After his return^from i'hiiaJelph.a he toM me he had^met Jeptha Howe on the train. He
hadthe little girl with hhn and was^going to Identify the body of his^client's husband. Holmes told him to^call on him If he was needed for iden^^tification. He told me of the visit to^the potter's field in Phlladel|mla and^of the finding of the identification^mark* after the doctor had sailed to^locate them. Of the money received^for the Fort Worth property be gave^me $2,000 and a number of presents
Henext left me Oct. 9 and aatd he^was going to Cincinnati. I went to^my mother's home in Franklin, Ind.^and Joined him in Detroit. OB Oct. 18^we went to Toronto. We remained^there until the 2^th.
Sheidentified Pltiel's picture as a^man she had known hi Fort Worth as^B. T. I.Ninan. Holmes was known as^8. H. Pratt.
Mr.Rotan of the defense announced^that the prisoner Insisted on conduct^^ing the cross-examination In person.^The court consented and Holmes ad^^dressed Oils Questions tremulously to^the woman he called his wife. She^said Holmes came in the house Sun^^day afternoon, Sept. 22. looking wor^^ried and disturbed. At this; point^Holmes told the court that hsy-would^reserve whatever questions he Mad un^^til he called the witness dlreojly for^Uhe defense.
DetectiveGeyer was recalled. He^said he had an Interview with JJolmcs^In Ihe cell room Nov. 20 about MB body^found In the Gallow Hill streetjious ^.^Holmes said it was not Pitxertl body,^but a substitute. ^He told me lie left^the Eleventh street house on Sunday,^Sept. 22, in the morning and went to^New York, where he went to a lasedlenl^student and procured a corpse. He^put It In a trunk and 'had it taken^by cart to Jersey City, where it was^shipped on the same train to Philadel^^phia that Holmes came over on He^reached .this cltv about 4 o'clock In the^afternoon and met Pltzel and gave^him the check for the trunk. Then^he went up to the Eleventh street^house and that night went West. He^refused to give me the name of the^student from whom he got Uhe corpse,^saying the student was supposed to be^dead, as years before he and Holmes^had swindled an Insurance company^out of $20,000. besides the student was^a prosperous man of family. He said^he had told Pitxel how to prepare the^substitute body, to iplace It on the floor^with the arms on the breast, put thu^liquid In Uhe mouth and set fire to'it.
Afew days before his arraignment^for conspiracy to which he pleaded^guilty, I saw him In the eel] room! and^he said the story he had told me A* eat^the substitute of a body was not*tqe.^and that the corpse found was that of^Pltzel. I said: Well. Holmes, In this^case you murdered Pltzel and ths chil^^dren.' He said 'No, I did not.'
Thedetective then related how^Holmea found Pltiel's body as already^published in a statement by Holmes.^Deteetlvt Geyer was temporarily with^^drawn and Mr. Graham offered to^prove the finding of the bones of How^^ard at Irvington, a suburb of Indian^^apolis, and the bodies of the girls In a^cellar of a house In Toronto. The de^^fense objeotod and the Jurymen were^taken to their rooms, while a lengthy^argument on both sides took place.
JudgeArnold caused a sensation by^deciding that tha killing of the child^^ren had no connection w*th the trial of^Holmes for the murder of the father,^and that no such evidence could be in^^troduced.

Afterall, Julian and Fitzsimmons^Want a Postponement.
THECASE WAS CONTINUED
Expressionsof Disgust Were Hsard^on All Sldas After the Coupls^Filed Out of Court-No^Fight at All.
LfttleRock, Oct. 31.^^I im perfectly^willing that this case be continued un^^til to-in rr.ivv.^ Haul Martin Julian in^Judge Joseph W. Martin's court this^afternoon. Had a bomb been exploded^In the terrsple of Justice It would have^created s.-arcrily Ifss sensation anions^the throng of Interested spectators than^did Jullian's words. ^Oh. what a fluke.^^^He don't want to go to Hot Springs.^^^Well, what do you think of that^^^These are fair samples of the expres^^sions of utter disgust which flew from^mouth to mouth as the disappointed^crowd filed out of the court room close^upon the heels of Martin Julian and^Robert Fltzslmmons, as they made^their way back to their suite of rooms^In the Capitol hotel In custody of two^deputies of Pulaski.
Foran hour before the time set for^the hearing of the case, a dense crowd^swarmed about the court room within^which Fltzskmmons and Julian were to^answer warrants charging them with^contemplating an assault on Corbett^and requiring them to keep the peace.^Julian had told every newspaper man^who dame within nailing distance that^lie was ^ust aching to reach Hot^Sprinirs. AJ1 morning he had been say^^ing that he would be released on bonds^this afternoon and go to Hot Springs^to-night to claim the $2,100 forfeit of^the Florida Athletic club, after secur^^ing which Fitzslmmons was ready to^fight Corbett to-morrow on any terms^the champion might name. Julian,^early in the day, received a telegram^from Hot Springs stating that Col.^George W. Murphy would be here to^dtfend him 4n behalf of the club.
However,M was found that the law^^yer was not aboard and would not ar^^rive until to-morrow. Then Julian said^that he would plead his own case.^He would go into court and d-mand^his liberty, give any amount of bond^required and proceed to Hot Springs^and force Corbtltt to fight or leave the^country. Julian maide no such plea,^however. Afiter the counsel for the^state had moved for a continuance un^^til to-morrow, Julian readily acquiesced^as above stated and those ardent ad^^mirers of the N'e-v Zoalander who so^firmly maintained that Jul an and Fitz-^slmmons are anxious to reach Hot^Springs, could hardly believe their
ears.
InLittle Rock.
LittleRook. Ark., Oct. $1.^The fight^will probably take place between the^7th and 10th of November. Corbett will^leave for Little Rock at 6 p. m. to sur^^render himself to the authorities.^Three-quarters of an hour later Fitz^^slmmons Is expected here. Corbett will^ap|^ear in the ting at 12 o'clock so no^claim can be mad- on him for the for^^fait. There Is no hope whatever of^the fight coming off before the 7th.^Then everything will be ready for the
fight.
Julian^Interviewed.
LittleRook, Oct. 81.^Boh Fltzslm-^mons and Manager Julian came In at^^:40 a. m. from Pine Bluff in charge of^Sheriff Dlllard. Julian says Brady's^statement that his man rushed Into^the hands of G ivernor Clarke's offi^^cers at Yexa.rkiuia 'la uterly false. He^explained that he and Kltzstmmone^were In charge of Sheriff Iloupt from^Marshal, Texas. He had a warrant fsf^their arrest and they were willing to^go with him. When the sheriff placed^the lighter and his manager under ar^^rest, Sh'-riff Hmpt was also arrested.^Julian says Corbett and his cocon^^spirators did everything In the.ir power^to avoid fighting FltzsLmmons, but as^soon as he and Hob reach Hot Springs^they will be forced to fight or lay down^their hands. After furnishing bonds^here Fitzslmmons will go to II it^Springs and claim the forfeit money^from the Florida. Athletic cdub. When^he gets this ht Is ready to fight Cor^^bett or any other man In the world for^the championship and $10,000 before a^eluh offering MM S*st purse and will be^ready to tlirh'. Friday, Nov. L Julian^stipulates dlsrlnrttly, however, the club^shall be In no way connected with the^Florida Athtstss club or any of Its^members. Fitzslmmons will fight Cor^^bett for $10,000 a side or nothing. The^only stipulation he will make Is the^fight shall be to a finish. It Is given^out as authentic that the big fight will^ocieur to-morrow.

SanFranoleeo, Oot. $1.^District At^^torney Uarnes Jld not finish his argu^^ment tn the trial of Theodore Durrant,^aa he announced last n.gnt that he^would. The Juov ri asked t:i* court not^to send Whem out to-night:, as they^w mi I prefer to be charged to-morrow^and have all day to consider the case.^The request waa granted, and as the^district attorney desired to have bis^words still ringing In the ears of ths^Jurors, he spike until time for court to^adjourn and then announced that he^would finish to-morrow m or ring.
ThatDurrant ts not only a monster,^but a criminal, whose sotlona, both be^^fore and since April 3, huve been In^keeping with the actions of other great^criminals, were the statements that Uhe^district attorney endeavored to keep^before the Jury to-day. The Lmpuls*^that prompted the lirtsoner to steal^Blanche Lamont's rlivgs fr ^m her body,^he said, wns the name .mjmite that had^cause I other criminal* to steal that for^which they had no use after commit^^ting a similar crime, tit* K were not for^the fact that criminals always do^things that should be l^ft undone and^fall to perform important adte, he said^law breaker* would never be de^^tected.
Asthe district attorney dwelt upon^the ghoulish nature of a man who could^steal the rings from th* body of an In^^nocent girl that he had murd^rcd, his^denunciation of the defendant became^so bitter that Mrs. Durrant was unable^to retain her composure. She burst into^tears and Hung her arms about the neck^of her son as if to shlol l him from the^torrent of Invectives of which he was^being made the object. Durrani re^^mained measurably calm, but his^mother, although she made several ef^^forts, could not control her emotion.^In the meantime the district attorney.^Who did not notice her state, his face^being turned away, continued his^scathing argument, until Juror Smyths^finally broikgbit she incident to an end^by asking for a flve-inlnilte recess. The^request was grantee], and when the^proceeding* were .resumed Mrs. Dur^^rant had recovered herself. The merci^^less arraignment of the defendant con^^tinued, hown-er.
TheodoreDurrant,^ said Mr. Barnes,^^stands fourth In American Jurisprud^^ence to-day. as the annex brutal crimi^^nal of the age. He I* a crean ure beside^whom Holmes, th* mnltl-murderer, now^on trial In Philadelphia, Is a perfect^gentleman end a scholar; beside whom^Professor Webster, the Harvard In^^structor, who killed Dr. Parkman years^ago, was a kind and genial citizen,^and a* compared with whom Cain wis^a Oeorge Washington. He took this^child Into the church alone and en-^Heed her, by what means we know not,^up to the belfry. She was with Mm^alone 1n that great building, this weak^and sickly child, unable physically to^cope with this monster, and as the^Huaslan proverb say* 'H^aven was high^and czar afar off.'
Noon* was ther* to com* to her aid;^no one could hear her call for mercy as^It fell upon his callous ear. She stood^alone, the prospective victim ef a lust^^ful murderer, a murder that shaft be^spoken of by our children, their chil^^dren and tlielr children's children until^the end of the history of Jurisprudence.^There are no witnesses to 'ell of the^details of that awful struggle between^virtue and vice, but there are circum^^stances fraught with mire mean.ng^than words that tell the whole story^and declare Theodore Durrar.t the mur^^derer.
