'I wish to thank Mrs. Pinkham for what, her medicine has done for me. My trouble was change of life. Four Jears ago my health began to fail, my cad began to grow dizzy, my eyes Paised me, and at times it seemed as f my back would fail me, had terrible pains across the kidneys. Hot flashes were very frequent and trying. A friend advised me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com- pound. I have taken six bottles of it and am to-day free from those troubles. I cannot speak in high enough terms of the medicine. I recommend it to all and wish every suffering an would give it a tpial." -- BELLA Ross, 88 Mont- oar Avs. Boelindale, Mass. -- £5000 fore original oj Li Ln orig f a etter proving genuineness TRUANCY CASES. Police Requested To Act--Revol- vers Carried. As a climax to the truancy case at Frontenac school the secretary of the Board of Education has written to the chief of police, giving the names and addresses of two boys, and stat- ing that they daily annoy the teach- ers of Rideau school. These boys, the letter goes on to say, are the leaders of a gang. The teachers have done evervthing possible, and the communication requests the chief to take up the matter and be as strict as possible under the circumstances. The worst, offender is over fifteen vears of aged, and cannot, theref be punished for truancy. His presence in the school was tolerated only for his own sake. The principal of Fron- tenac school wrote to his parents. of the boy's actions, but no attention was paid to the letter. The police know that the lad carries a revolver. One of the members of the force stated to-day that he had fourteen witnesses to prove this. ~ The other boy is not as bad. When his parents were communicated with, they thanked the = teachers and did everything possible to control their boy. The method adopted by the members" of the teaching staff in deal- ing with such matters 1s a good one. First a notice qi a pupil's absence is sent 'to the parents on blanks especi- ally prepared for such use. Next a post card is forwarded, informing the parents of the boy's absence on cer 18 tain specified days and asking if it was with the parents' consent. The | next step is the sending of the tru- ancy card to the 'polices The teachers watch the boys closely, and believe that if pupils have, revol- vers they do not bring' them to Many toy pistols, for firing caps, are taken from the boys. The penalty for disturbing a school, as the charge laid against these two school. boys reads, is a serious one: a fine of" 820 and costs may be inflicted. King- ston now has. seven boys in the re- formatory at Mimico, and their main- tenance costs the city R100 a year, each, or &00 in all. This represents the interest on a capital expendi- ture, i Interest reckoned at four per cent, of nearly 815,000, There fore, from the financial alone, it hehooves every look well after his boys.

Copper RR the | standpoint | A DOUBLE LIFE | Business Man a Successful Burglar. ~ WAS UP-TO-DATE CAPTURED AFTER A DESPER- ATT STRUGGLE. Has Been Operating For Many Months--How the Discovery Was Made--He Ran a Crucible and Smeltered the Silverware He Received. Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 4.--Known to his friends as an energetic business man, whose integrity and ef- fort had won a partnership with his employer, George E. Dickinson, alias Westcott, is face to face with indisput- able evidence that stamps him as the most astute and thoroughly equipped burglar ever captured in this city. He was arrested early last Wednesday morning after a desperate and bloody battle with / Policeman Carroll. Two hours after his arrest the police found the clue to the chain of evidence that now binds the prisoner. He has been operating in the city since October, 1901. Seventeen persons | from various parts of the city appear- led at police headquarters to-day and | identified silverware and other valu- | ables recovered by the police in Dick- inton's rooms and valued at about £1,000. He is believed to have com mitted at least 100 robberies here, while' terms of imprisonment in Charl eston, Mass., and Trenton, N.J., fill out his criminal record. Th: police in carrying on their in- vestigations were amazed by the in- numerable precautions that had been taken by the prisoner to cover up his tracks. The climax to their surprise came, however, when they found that he was the junior partner of Well '& | Dickinson, contractors and importers | of notions and shirt waists, with of- fices at Tenth and Arch streets. When not robbing houses, he moved in good society. When he, his face battered beyond recognition by the struggle.with the officer, was brought to the city hall, | he refused to make any statement. In | spite of this, the superintendent of { police, Mr. Quirk, obtained a clue that {led him to fasten upon the prisoner a | long series of robberies, This clue was a tintype found in a letter in the pris oner's pocket. It showed Dickinson | standing beside a voung woman, who, is a member. of one of Philadelphia's best families. The photograph had | been taken but recently at Long { branch, N..J. { This, the name given bv the pris- loner, and his remark to the licuten- | ant of the station house when he was | captured, that "'when you find out 'who I am you will be surprised," | formed the basis of the subsequent de- velopments. Diekinson had piven his { name as Charles Westcott. The super- intendent of police, upon hearing it, remembered that back in 1895, a man bearing the name of Georee Westcott | had been arrested on a similar charge. | Owing to lack of evidence he was dis- | charged. Investigation' showed _that he { and Dickinson were the same. | Four years ago he went to work for Well, a manufacturer and importer of fine notions and shirtwaists, at Tenth and Arch streets. He labored diligently and gave great attention to business. Three months ago he was made junior partner. When the mews of Dickinson's arrest was brought to Well, the latter was thunderstruck. He cave the detectives every assistance, however, with the.result that in a far-away nook of the firm's offices a suit case was found containing much | jewelry and silverware. The detectives I next visited Dickinson's apartments at 1602 Spring strect. They found these fitted up in costly style. There anoth- {er basket of silverware was found. Three crucibles were discovered, in which precious metals had heen smelt ered. So careful had he been, however, | that his two brothers who had apart: ments on the same floor, were in tgno A. {rance of any of his operations. Many things found upon Dickinson | gave the police an insight into his me | thods. A bunch of fifty. latchkeys was found, "and in his.' rooms were many more. The police sav that no Jock was ever made that could withstand these kevs and picks of 'the prisoner. | "When. the hundred or more robberies with which Dickinson is charged were ! first reported to the police, 'the officers {were struck by a feature common to all. In' every case there was an ab | sence of matches and éandle grease. A | solution was found when a pocket el lectrie lamp was discovered on the pri soner. Every one of the houses robbed was® entered at midnight, so Dickin son was always at his homg at a reafonable" hour. He never went high er than the first floor. His thefts con- fsisted" of sil€erware principally. * George Dickinson's brother said last night that he had alwaes believed him? honest. He had never seen anvthing to lead him to suspect his brother's dual, i life. Dickinson is married, but separat ed from his wife. He was born in Sy- nn. racuse about thirty-five vears ago and later lived in Mechanicsville. He will be formally arraigned to-morrow at Central station. CAPE VINCENT VIEWS.

Over a month has passed. and no trace of him can be found. All efforts to get the town authorities to take hold of th: matter have failed and the mystery will probably never be solved. Another search has been made in the river on the strength of some thing 'told by a person who was drunk, but nothing was discoverdd The people of the town are anxious to have the authorities make an effort to find the man or even offer a re ward, but nothing will be done.

After dinner his wife, who hagl. seen a fne old lady of great experience in doctoring, gave him two pills of her make, about the size of an English walnut anl . two tabl spoonfuls of home-made wine to keep them down. Then hé took a hali-pint of hot rum at the sugges- ton of an old sea captain and steam kis legs with an alcohol bath. At this erisis two of the nciochbors ari swallow. od ed, who saw at once that his blood was out of order, and gave him a half-gallon of spearmint tea and a buy dose of eastor oil, Before going to bed he took eight of a new kind of pills, wrapped about his neck a flan nel soaked in hot vinegar and | salt and had feathers burnt on a shovel in hi room.

The question of government subsi- dies for new transcontinental railways was a subject that caused a heated discussion at yesterday's monthly meeting of the chambre de commerce, being brought about by a notice of motion which was presented by J. X. Perrault. Mr. Perrault was dead against the government granting any money subsily or giving land 'to any railway corporation, and suggested that any government assistance be given by means of ordinary or prefer- ential stocks subscription. This was not acceptable to several of the mem- hers, who regarded the scheme as a closer approach to state ownership. The resolution was finally referred to the council for report.

Slate Falls, Dec. 1.--The merry jin- gle of the sleigh bells can be heard cn all sides. Between fiftv and sixty deer were chased down by large packs of hounls and shot by the sports (?) when in ghe water. Many are found ly- ing dead near the shores of lakes and One of our neighbors found four carcasses lying on the banks of one of our lakes, and several others have been found by different parties. These deer have been chased bv the hounds until their blood is over-heat- ed and then they have taken to the water to rid themselves of the tire- less foe. After swimming across a lake a wile or so wide, they lic down on the opposite bank and die. At the pre- sent rate of slaughter a very few vears will suffice to make that most oraceful animal, deer; extinct in this part of Ontario. There were about fiftv hounds and abeut the same num- ber of men in the woods about here thi: season. It is reported that the gévernment is going to take some ac- tion in regard to this outrage, before the next hunting season, and put a stop to hounding. It is to be hoped that they will.
