ACCIDENTAL DEATH VERDICT OF. CORONER'S JURY IN CASE OF CARMAN FASEEADE The Evidence Was Taken Before the Coroner, Dr. D. E. Mundell, on Thursday Afternoon--No Blame Was Attached to Anyone by the Jury on the Case. That death was dietntirely to an accident, and that no blame could be attached 10 anyone, was, in brief, the verdict, rendered by the jury summon- él in the ease of Carman Faserade, the Italian who died as a result of in- juries he received while engaged in construction work for ihe Canadian Northern railway near Sydenham, on January 20th, . The jury met at the police court room, on Thursday afternoon. Dr. D. E. Mundell was the presiding coroner. All the evidence available was given. Five witnesses we heard, 'Dr. A. ( Anglin, who attdpded the deceased at the ral hospital; William Hogan, Augelo Gigliotti and Dominick Sapia, Puaged in the construction work, and Seriven, the boss contractor of the job. Deceased was struck with a stone while the work was going an. The stone crushed his leg, and the member was. amputated, but he died from the shock. Dr. W. GG. Anglin told about being called te sce deceased, on the day of the accident, at the general hospital He suflored from a crushed leg. patient was not in fit condition on that day to have the leg amputated. He received the very best of attention, his injury, being dressed daily. Last Monday, in an attempt to save his life, the member was amputated, but he could not stand the shock. The di rect cause of death was due to the in juried he received at his work William Hogan, teamster, employed on the construction work of the Cana dian Northern railway east of Syden ham, gave evidence. He had been en- gaged in pulling out rock, and had his team attached to a chain. His horses started rather suddenly, and a rock was thrown out and struck deceased on the leg. Witness did not know what made the horses start suddenly. He had been accustomed to do this work. Witnews stopped the horses as soon as he could, and then noticed that a man had been hurt. Angelo Gigliotti, foreman on the Canadian Northern railway coastruc- tion, told about getting the stone out. He expected that the chaim around the rock was loose, and said that when he asked deceased how he came to be hurt, he had stated that he had no- ticed the chain loose, and went to fix it. Witness did not tell deceased to fix it, but he went of his own accord. The stone was being loaded on a stone hoat.. Witness stated that he had plan the chain around the rock him- self, Dominick Saplo, another Italian wit- vess, could not speak a word of Eng- bish, and an interpreter was called. He said he helped the foreman put the chain around the rock. At this stage, another Italian in the room had a little clash with the act- fo bt as to just what the doce was doing when hous ad uy The new interpre ter was then sworn in by the coroner, and after a little cross-firing between the two Italian interpreters, the case pre F. W. Seviven, contractor, working on construction work for the C.N.R. near Sydenham, having ten miles of the grading, was sworn. Witness was not at the scene when the accident oc- curred, being engaged in work about two miles away at the time the acci- dent ocourred, there was a vehicle at the scene, and the injured man was given prompt atiention, and sent to the Kingston general hospital. At the present time witness said that he had about two hundred men working for him. Witness gave no orders to his foreman, apart from the usual warn ing, to be careful in the use of dyna mite, for the blasting, and also about the loose stones on the edges, which might fall, and hurt some of the work: men, i The Money May be Wanted. Hamilton "Herald, . It is possible for the 83,000,000 to be frittered away in non-productive work. The government would do well to carry out its development policy along the lines laid down by Allan Studholme, who has for five years, at every session, been urging the govern ment to give serious attention to the needs of the north. Mr. Studholme has been advocating a practical and busioess-like immigration policy by which farms would be prepared for set- tlers, and settlers of the right sort would be placed on the farms, pay- ment to be mide by the settlers on easy terms. Part of the five-million- dollar fund should be used for this purpose. It is the best way to plant population on the soil of the north Soantry. Make it comparatively easy for the pioneer settlers and the prob- len will solve itsell. ---------------------- ---- ---- A Sign of Life.

Especially When ig Costs Nothing to Try. Not with drugs, but with a ° rein- forcement of digestive agents, such as are naturally at work in the sto- mach ? Scientific analysis shows that digestion requires pepsin, nitrogenous ferments, and the secretion of hydro chloric acid. When your food fails to digest, it is proof positive that some of these agents are lacking in your digestive apparatus. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain nothing but these natural elements necessary to digestion and when placed at work in the weak stomach aud small intestines, supply what these organs need. They stimulate the gas- tric glands and gradually bring the digestive organs back to their normal condition. Stuart's Tablets have been subjected to critical chemical tests at home and abroad and are found to contain nothing but natural digestives.

There is no secret in the prepara- tion of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Their composition is commonly known among physicians, as is shown by the recommendations of 40,000 licensed physicians in the United States and Canada. They are the most popular of all remedies for indigestion, dyspep- sia, water brash, insomnia, loss of appetite, melancholia, constipation, dysentry and kindred diseases origina- ting from improper dissolution and as similation of feods, because they are thoroughly reliable and harmless to man or child. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are at once a safe and a powerful remedy, one grain of the active principle 'in these tablets being strong enough (by test) to digest 3,000 grains of steak, eggs and other foods, Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets will digest your food for you when your stomach can't.

New York, Feb. 15.--One of the bold est robberies in the history of this city was commitied, this morning, when twenty-five thousand dollars in bank notes were. stolen from the East river Bank messengers by highway- men. The messengers were on thew way through the busiest part of the financial district, conveying money from the Produce Exchange to the bank's branch in the Battery, near old Trinity church. Right. in sight of scores of peo ple, three men sprang from the curb, one mounted the box with the chauf- feur and holding a revolver under his coat, pointed against the driver, com- manded him to drive swiitly and make no alarm. The other two high- waymen got into the cab, where they clubbed the messengers over the heads and wrested a tin box with the money from them. At Park Place the thiee men with the cash, jumped from the taxi into a big black automobile which whirled them off until they were dost in a maze of traffic. The chaaffeur contin ued until he met a policeman, who found W. E. Smith, messenger, aged sixty-one, unconscious, and bleeding i profusely.
