THIS NEW YORKER Is A “Botcher" Whom Wey ler Kay Well Etiuy Iff HIS DRUNKEN ANGER He Slays A Mother, Wife And t Then His Children. New York. Aug 12. Policeman Henry C. Hawley of the Tender- Join station, whilein a fit of drunken rage shot hie wife, bis mother, Mary Hawley, his four year old son and his daughter, six years old. He then shot himself in the head. He was taken to Bellevue hospital, where he died soon after wards. The others were taken to the New York hospital, where it was said they would die. The only explanation of the crime was a statement made by Hawley’s mother to the effect that drink had caused all the trouble. When Hawley’s mother mo mentarily recovered conciousness at the hospital this afternoon she made s'atement in si balance as follows. ‘‘My son Henry C. Haw’ey had been drinking and appeared crazy. He shot his,wile first and then shot me. Then shot his two children and himself, the shooting occurs red at our home about noon.’’ Owen Gallagher, employed in a shop at the rear of the Hawley apartments, saw a good part of the tragedy. Gallagher, with other working men, had their attention attrac ted by hearing Hawley quarreling with his wife. The'policeman was sitting in a chairat the rear win dow. He held a revolver in his hand and was locking at its bar rel . Gallacher heard Hawley curse his wife telling her to “Get out of this.” Then the policeman’s meth er came up and tried to get the revolver away from him. The old lady put her arms around her son’s neck and endeavored to take the revolver away from him he shoved her off and then shooting began Ga'laghersaw the pehceman stand up and aim the pistol directly at the two little children. “He shot them down like dogs,” he said. As the mother wks putting hsr arms around Hawleo’s neck he wa» beard to be repeating this sentence. “I’ll fix them all” _■ y POISONED MELON. Tompkinsville, Ky , Aug. 12. —George Howard, colored, of this city, ate watermelon and was immediately taken violently ill and died. The melons had poison injected into them as a trap for thieves. TRADE PROSPECTS IN CUBy One of the largest merchants of Havana, who arrived here on Monday from Sagua, spoke thus of the trade conditions and pros prospects in Cuba : ' Cuba is an out-and-out agri cultural country, and American enterprises can only succeed when recognizing the fact. I think, however, one of the first things needed throughout Ouba will be electric railroads. After this the next important item of shipment should be lumber and ether building materials. Real estate is selling in Havana at next to nothing. It has not been possible to collect mortgages or get judgment against any pro perty during the last year. Building operations with a strong government, therefore, should, 1 think, have a consid erable boom. I should also imag ine that a number of large sugar refineries in Cuba would be a profitable investment. In addi- stfel 75 w Tlie door of health stands open to every woman who will enter. All that she needs is the key and a little knowledge. The knowledge that -be needs is concerning her own nature, her own physical make-up and tin principal cause of ill health in women. When a woman suffer* from headaches and pains in the back and sides, and burn ing and dragging sensations and the weak ness, nervousness and despondency that are caused by diseases peculiar to her sex, she cannot enjoy good general health. The key to the door of health—the cure for all disorders of this description—is Dr Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It is a medicine specially devised for disorders of this na ture and no other It is the invention of an eminent and skillful specialist, Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consulting physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgi cal Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y. When a woman writes to Dr Pierce she consults a physician who has practiced for thirty years right in one place, and who was some years ago honored by his own townspeople by an election to the National Congress. He will answer letters from women free of charge. All professional .correspondence is regarded as sacredly confidential. " Horyears I kept failing in health and getting worse and more nervous all the time.' writes Mrs Annie Dulan, of East Stroudsburg, Monroe Co., Pa. “ I doctored with two different doctors without relief. My system was run down and my nerves weak 1 had ulcers of the uterus which were so painful at times that I was afraid they must be cancers I felt discouraged and did not'get any better until my nurse advised me to write to Dr. Pierce. In May I commenced tak ing Dr Pierce's Favorite Prescription and Gold en Medical Discovery. 1 took twelve bottlesill all. six of each Thanks to God and Dr. Pierce s medicines. I am cured and am a well woman." tion, public schools, roads and road implements and mining machinery are needed. There are many opportunities, I think, for large hotels.”—Journal of Commerce.
