Martin Thorn Declared by tho Jury th3 Slayer of Guldensuppe. REPORT THAT HE OWNS THE CRIME, Which He In Sttld to Have Denied Later MeeU the Jury's Verdict With out the Least 8ls;n of Weakness. New York, Dec. 1. Martin Thorn was yesterday convicted of murder in the first degree in killing William Gul densuppe, his predecessor In the af fections of Mrs. Augusta Nack. at Wooddde L. I., on June 25. At the re quest of Thorn's counsel the passage of the death sentence was deferred until MARTIN THORN, next Friday morning. Thorn heard the Jury polled on their verdict, but his face never changed color during the trying ordeal. With Hps firmly compressed and Jaws set hard he faced the Judge, Jury and court room full of spectators with well-feigned stoicism. About three weeks ago Thorn's first trial on the charge of murder was begun, but owing to the illness of a Juror it had to be abandoned after three days. A second trial opened a week ago last Monday, and counting out three days on which the court did not sit the trial consumed only six days. Bio Story Was of No Kfftect. Mrs. Nack's testimony duiing the mis trial made it compulsory for Thorn's lawyers to change their line of defense in the second trial, and they made a direct charge against Mrs. Nack and in sisted that her alleged confession was a lie and that she herself was the insti gator and perpetrator of the murder. Thorn being ignorant of the killing un til after Guldensuppe had been shot by Mrs. Nack. The woman was not pro duced during the second trial, butThorn went on the stand and substantiated all the assertions made by the lawyers as to the midwife's guilt. His story, as the verdict shows, did not have the desired effect upon the Jurymen. Jury Dolibnriited Three Hours. Judge Maddox's charge was carefully prepared and well delivered. It was ac knowledged by the lawyers for the pris oner to be extremely lucid, fair and im partial. The Jury remained in delibera tion Just three hours, when it sent word to the Judge that it was ready to render a verdict. The fact of the Jury remaining out so long gave hope to the defense. But when it came in "Guilty of the charge preferred," were the omi nous words which fell from the lips of the foreman of the Jury. Thorn's law yers moved for a new trial on the ground that the verdict was not hi ac cordance with the weight of evidence, but the motion was overruled. Contradiction ns to a Confession. When Martin Thorn had been led back to his cell after the conviction he admit ted that the verdict was Just, and that he and not Mrs. Nack killed Oulden suppe. This acknowledgment of guilt took place while Thorn's cell In the Jail was being prepared for him. He said: " I am glad it is over and the verdict given. I am convicted and am contented. It was I who killed Guldensuppe, and I believe every word that Mrs. Nack said upon the stand was substantially correct. When I was on the stand I lied when telling the story as I did, but I lied to clear myself. It is no use carrying it any further. I am guilty and am con victed. It is what I expected and what I suppoFe people think I deserve, and perhaps I do." New York. Dec. 1. The Herald today prints Martin Thorn's denial of the re port that he had confessed.

An ex plosion of nitro-glycerlne occurred one half mile west of this city at 9:10 o'clock Thursday night. Sixty quarts of nitro-glycerine were hauled there for the purpVse of shooting a gas well. The e x 1 j 1 1 sive was placed in a large zinc tub located at the end of a stuutn exhaust pipe for the purpose of thawing out the mixture, it is the theory that the tub became overheated, causing an explosion with disastrous results. A hole ten feet long and several in depth was torn in the earth. The engine was blown to pieces. Drillers Haney and McC.ulfe had a remarkable- escape. The y were star.ding within thirty feet of the scene of the accident and were hurled twenty feet by the force of the explosion, but with tho exception of a few bruises they escaped unhurt. Persons a mile away were lifted from their feet by the con cussion and the Jar was felt for ten miles. Fire followed the explosion, but the flames were quickly extinguished.

Growing worse and worse each winter, those who rely upon the usual trea ment of sprays, washes and iuhal ing mixtures find that it is impossible to check the disease with these local applications which only reach the sur face. The offensive discharge increases 11 the while, and gets deeper until it is only a question of a short time when the longs are affected. The importance of the proper treat ment can therefore be readily appre ciated. But no good whatever can be expected from local applications, as such treatment never did cure Catarrh, and never will. Being a blood disease of the most obstinate nature, Swift's Specific (S.S.S.) is the only remedy which can have the slightest effect upon Catarrh. It is the only blood remedy that goes down to the bottom of all stub born diseases which other remedies cannot reach. Mrs. Josephine Polhill, of Due West, S. C, writes : "I had such a severe case of Catarrh that I lost my hearing in one ear, and part of the bone in my nose sloughed off. I was constantly treated I wit ii sp ays ana washes,' but each winter the disease seemed to have a firmer hold on me. I had finally been declared incurable when I decided to try S. S. S. It seemed to get right at the seat of the disease, and cured me permanently, for I have had no touch of Catarrh for seven years." The experience of Mr. Chas. A. Parr, of Athens, Ga., was like that of all others who vainly seek a cure in local treatment. He says: "For years I suffered from a severe case of Catarrh, the many offensive symptoms be uj ac companied by severe pains in the head. I took several kinds of medicines rccom meuded for Catarrh, and used various local applications, but they naa no ettect wnatev-jjji take S.S.S. (Swiffs Specific) and after four months I was perfectly well, and have never felt any effects of the disease since." Those who have had the first touchof Catarrh, will save endless suf fering by taking the right remedy at the outset. Others who have for years sought relief andfouud only disappoint ment in local treatment will find it wise to waste no further time on sprays, washes, inhaling mixtures, etc., which are only temporary, and ciunot save them from dreaded Consumption. They should take a remedy which will cure them because it can reach iheir trouble. S.S.S. is the ouly blood reme dy which can reach Catarrh; it promptly gets at the very bottom of the disease, and cures it permanently. S.S.S. (Swift's Specific) is a real blood remedy, and cures the most obstinate cases of Catarrh, Rheumatism, Conta gious Blood Poison, Cancer, Scrofula and Eczema, which other so-called blood remedies have no effect upon whatever. S.S.S. is the only bipod remedy guaran teed Purely Vegetable and coutains no mercury, potash or other dangerous mineral. Books will be mailed free by Swift Specific Company, Atlanta, Georgia.
