Rheumatism
I* * blood diseaseand only a ' lood reme
dy can cure it. So many people make
the mistake of taking remedies which
at best are only tonics and cannot possi
bly reach their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith,
Greencastle, Indiana, says: “For years
I have suffered with Sciatic Rheuma
tism, which the best physicians were un
able to relieve. I took many patent
medicines but they did not seem to
reach my trouble. I gradually grew
werse until I was un-
SfigF ab'.eto take my food
or handle myself in
any wa y. I was abto
lutely helpless. Three
bottles of S.S.S. re
lieved me so that I

When I had finished one dozen bottles

A WHITE HAIRIB WOMAH
In Th« Witness Sox Springs a
Sensation.
New York, Dec. 16. —In no
trial in the courts of New York,
civil or criminal, have there
been such questions asked as
those propounded by the law
yers defending William A. E.
Moore, now being trieii for the
second time before Recorder
Goff, in general sessions, and in
no trial probably has a witness
been subjected to such torture
as Martin Mahon was yesterday
and t >day.
Shocking, horribly shocking
a- th* cross exuininatiuu of Ma
li >n w<is, the spectators in the
court room craned their necks to
grasp every word and gloated
over the disgusting details.
Common decency precluded
th* admission of women to this
legal burning of incense to the
memories of Sodom and Gomor
ri.h, but they would have b<en
there had not the recorder’s in
junctions upon the court officers
kept them out. As for the men
who revel in the debauchery de
scribed in this trial, they are ol
respectable appearance, well
dressed and piovided with some
sort of credentials that admit
them. Cray-haired, bent old men
are there, vigor- us middle-aged
’men and youths.
Poor Mahon, forced, th* dis
trict attorney sajs, to tell hit*’
miseiable story ef-dalliance,rob
bery and disgrace, was yester
day’ and today more the defend
ant than Moore, the man on tri
al for blackmail and robbery;
His conduct an the stand to
day was not so nitiable as it
Was yesterday, yet be squirnled
under the lawyer’s lash, admit
ting his associations with Fayne
Strahan Moore while he was a
husband and father. With parch
•d lips, burning face and legs
drumming a tattoo on the floor,
Mahon, this New' York hotel
proprietor, sat for hours before
the jury and the crowd, compell
ed to pose as an execrable mem
ber of society.
On the opening of the court
at 10:40 o’clock this foren ion
Mahon’s cross examination was
resumed by Abraham Levy foi
the defense. Evidently he had
fortiled himself for the ordeal.
He has a Milesien brogue, a
consequential way of speaking
and snaps off his words as
though et joying the sound ol
his voice.
T hat voice has a suspicion of
the falsetto in it. All the details
of the oc< urrences in the rooms
the Hotel Grenoble on the night
of November. 4th last, when he
was confronted by Fayne Stra
han Moort’s husband in her
room, were gone over again.
Many things were ea:d that arc
not fit for publication. *
Two or three times Mahon
broke out in pretests against
questions by the defense.
‘When Moore left ycu that
night, where did you go?”
“To my hotel.”
“You did not no toyoui wife’s
ho.nt?”
“No,” exclaimed the witness,
“and see here, Mr. Levy”
(pointing Lie finger at tl e law
yer, “my wife is as good as yours
is or as you are. I had her for
eighteen months with me in Eu-
rope five years ago, and —’’
‘ Oh, neyer mind that, this
■ outburst is merely for effect,’’
interposed Mr. Levy.
The cross examination was
jcpntluded at 11 :45 o’clock, and
Assistant District Attorney Mc-
I Intyre started on the redirect
(hie of the krst questions he
inked brought out this from the
1 witness’:
“Must I answer that with
.these ladies prevent?”
The ladies in question had
managed to gain access,knowing
the recorder’s injunction, but at
this point "ware-escorted out. At
12 :05 o’clock . Mahon left the
stand and Alonzo W. Foster,
Mahon’s manager, testified to
Fayne Moore’s hotel visits, cor
roborating hit employer in every
detail.
Mr. Levy made an endeavor l
to have Mrs. Moore produced in
court for the purpose of 11 denli
tication, but the record j r de
clined to accede with one excep
tion, namely, that she.be put on
the stand as a witness. This was
objected to and every one was
disappointed at not being able
to gaze on the beautiful prisoner
After recess Detit live Cuff re
pealed his part in the affair as
told in the former trial.
A young man claiming him-
S'df a “mixologist” was the next
1 ailed. Noone knew what that
meant, ond everybody asked for
an explanation. It developed
that he was a bartender. His
testimony was of minor import
ance .
