Body of the Filipino Rebel Leader

INSANE FROM A BUG BITE.
The Expert Who Examined ia Bitten
and in a Low Condition.
Chicago, March 28. —A dispatch to
the Inter Ocean from Mendon, Mich.,
says: Oscar Newasaky, a young Polish
farmer near here, has become insane
as the result of a bite by a winter
bug. The day after he was bitten
his body began to swell and physicians
have been unable to give him relief.
Prof. De Vos Olinberg, an entomo
logist of Wheeling. W. Va., came here
at the request of the National museum
at Washington to procure specimens
of the bug. He found a nest of the
Insects in a bog near Newasaky's
home and while trying to capture them
was bitten on the chin and within an
hour was in a semi-conscious condi
tion.
Olinberg does not show the symp
toms of insanity that appeared in
Newasaky's case and the physicians
are hopeful of hfs recovery.
INJUNCTION DENIED.
Judge Refuses to Interfere With Re
suit of Prohibition Election
Special to The Daily Light.
Sherman. Tex., March 28.—Judge
Bryant refused an Injunction to re
strain the commissioners’ court from
declaring the result of the prohibition
election. The opinion contains 2000
wwds, covering in detail every point
in the petition. It is held that Busch
& Co's, contention, that by the elec
tion their Grayson county property
was taken without due process of the
law, was not well taken.
To Head the Glass Blowers.
Pittsburg, Pa., March 28. —All indi
cations point to the election of Paul
St. Peter of this city to succeed Simon
Burns as president of the National
Union of Glass Blowers. A referen
dum vote was taken several weeks
ago, but no decisive result was reach
ed. St. Peter, however, lacked but a
small number of votes of winning out
and it is believed that the second vote,
which is being counted at headquar
ters today, will show his election.
Great Labor Fair.
New York, March 28. —The great fair
in the interests of organized labor, for
which preparations have been making
all winter, opens in the Grand Central
Palace tonight. The promoters expect
that not less than 200,000 persons will
visit It before the close. April 5, and
that fully $25,000 will be cleared. The
trades unions, the working men's sick
and death benefit societies and kindred
organizations are working for its suc
cess. All sorts of entertainments have
been arranged for tM hundreds of
donations valued into the thousands
have Been secured. The money real
ized is to form a fund for the general
aid of the labor movement in Greater
New York.
A Good Substitute.
The Belton News says:
“The man who got drunk on three
pints of patent medicfhe ought to be
able to write a testimonial that w 111 be
worth something ”
Of course that may be a good and
effectual substitute in a prohibition
town, but the right kind goes better
and is cheaper in the end.

KAN ANTONIO DAILY LIGHT, SaN ANTONIO, TEXAS, SATURDAY. MARCH aB. 1903.
LOOKING FOR NELLIE,
SHERIFF TOBIN WANTS TO CATCH
A COLORED WOMAN.
Broke Jail Last .Might With the Aid of
a P’ece of Wire and Ga* Pipe—Rag
lan Coat Necessitated Her Efforts at
Liberty.
Sheriff Tobin had his first jail deli
very during his terms of office last
night at the Bexar county jail.
Three prisoners escaped, and as
usual, the blame rests <>n the woman
in the case.
This woman is Nellie Goodpasture, a
’colored woman, who had the com
mendable ambition qo be a real lady
and do the whole dog by wearing a
Raglan coat. She had none of her
own. but she was found by the police
in the powesslon of one belonging to
another party, and the police placed
her in tail. The grand jury did the
rest by indicting her for burglary and
theft and the county jail doors swung
open to her. She was given a tin
•bucket for slops in her cell and the
wire handle of the bucket enticed her
to a longing for liberty. With the
wire handle the mortar about one of
the large blocks of stone in her cell,
nearest to the low roof adjoining the
second story and thence nearest to
liberty, was quietly removed, a piece
of gas pipe was found anil aided her in
removing this block, and last night she
bade goodbye to her fellow boarders
in this hotel and escaped to the roof,
then jumped to the ground below and
was at liberty.
Two other prisoners In her cell
quickly followed her example and are
at liberty. The other two were in jail
on misdemeanor charges, and are not
important, but the sheriff's deputies
are eagerly looking for Nellie.

FREE MEDICAL ADVICE TO WOMEN.
This is a very important consideration in a woman’s correspondence with Mrs. Pinkham. It Is *
great satisfaction to feel that one woman-can write to another telling her the most private and confidential
details about her illness, and know that her letter will be seen by a woman only, — a woman full of sympathy
for her sick sisters, and with a knowledge of woman’s ills greater than that possessed by any other person.
Mrs. Pinkham never violates the confidence thus entrusted to her,and although she publishes
thousands of testimonials from women who have been benefited by her advice and medicine, never
in all her experience has she published such a letter without the full consent, and often by
special request of the writer.
The reason Mrs. Pinkham is so amply qualified to give advice in cases of female ills is for the reason
that over one hundred thousand cases coige before her each year, — some personally, others by mail, and
this has been going on for twenty years, day after day, and day after day. Twenty years of constant success,
— think of the knowledge thus gained. Surely, women are wise in seeking advice from a woman of such
experience, especially when it is absolutely free.
As an illustration of the good coming from such advice we herewith publish two letters and
portrait of Miss Hattie DeGroat, the reading Of which should give every sick woman confidence in
Mrs. Pinkham's ability to help them. This is only one of thousands of the same kind of letters
which Mrs. Pinkham lias on file.
f" Dear Mrs. Pixkham: — I have read with interest your advice to others so much
that I thought I would write to you, for I have been suffering for a long time. I have such
bearing-down pains, and Buch shooting pains go through me. I have headache, backache,
and feel tired. Menstruation is very painful, sometimes have to stop work and lie down.
My motnaeh bloats terribly, and lam troubled with whites. Hoping to hear from you
Boon, I remain, ,
July 24th. i 960. Miss Hattie DeGroat, Succasuma, N. J.’*
“ Dear Mrs. Pinkham : — 1 can hardly f\nd words to thank you for your advice and
wonderful V<s-etable Compound. I was in a terrible state, every part of my body ached,
was very nervous, hud hysterical spells, I think I would have become insane had it not
been for Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Your letter told me just what to do,
and your medicine cured me, and I cannot express my thanks.” .
’ March Bth, 1801. Miss Hattie DeGroat, Succasuma. N. J.” •
No other medicine in the world has received such widespread and
unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of
of female troubles or such hosts of grateful friends. Do not be persuaded
1 \1 ' 1 ' that any other medicine is just as good. Any dealer who suggests something
else has no interest in your ease. He is seeking a larger profit. Follow the record of t his medicine, ।
and remember that the thousands of cures of women whose letters are constantly printed in this
paper were not brought about by “something else,’’ but by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. 1
