TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1908. HARRISBURG STAR-INDEPENDENT. TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 4, 1908. STATE Pittsburg, Feb. first leap year ended in a tragedy yesterday afternoon, when John Hull, aged 47, a well-to-do bookkeeper on the North Side, put a bullet through to leave work for home.

They were married on the day after New Year's, Mrs. Hull laughingly claiming the credit of being the first woman of the North Side to take advantage of the leap year prerogative.

ENGINEER CRUSHED TO DEATH. Engine Plunges Down a 25-foot Embankment.

Shenandoah, Feb. the Pennsylvania passenger train that left here at 2.10 yesterday afternoon, drawing two coaches filled with passengers, was goIng at great speed down the heavy grade south of Frackville, on the way to Pottsville, the engine' jumped the track, plunged down a 25-foot embankment and rolled to the road below. Brave Engineer Grant Sigfried was still at the throttle in his vain attempt to stop the engine, and was caught under it in its awful plunge and crushed to death. The fireman, Renus Schuck, by rare presence of mind Jumped as the engine left the track and saved himself from a similar fate. Fortunately the engine, as it left the track, broke away from the two coaches, leaving them on the track overlooking the capsized locomotive, sizzling and seeming as if it would burst.

When the passengers saw the narrow and miraculous escape they had they were greatly shocked and many of the women and children went into hysterics. It is believed that the brave engineer applied the air brakes so soon and SO forcibly, as he felt his engine leave the track as to hold back the cars, instantly break the couplings and save the coaches from plunging down the embankment, without ever thinking of himself. Engineer Sigfried resided at Pottsville and was running in place of Ezra Carey, the regular engineer, "a who was attending the funeral of relative." SHOTS FIRED AT CONTRACTOR. Man Probably Mortally Wounded in an Attempted Blackmail. Pottsville, Feb.

the third time in as many months Antonio de Salvo, a wealthy contractor of this place, was the object of a murderous attack on Sunday night, as the result of his refusal to heed blackmailing demands, Joseph Riotto, a neighbor, who came to his rescue, but was Salvo wounded unharmed. probably mortally, De was Six men armed with shotguns, surrounded De Salvo's home, and were forcing the door, when Riotto, hearing the noise, opened fire on them. He shot twice and was reloading his gun when a volley was fired from the ranks of the attacking party and he fell to the ground with chest and head riddled with shot. De Salvo on Friday received a notice signed by the "Black Hand," threatening him with death if he did not turn over $1,000 to two men whom he would find along a deserted section of road near here. He ignored the note, and since has refused to leave the house.

At an early hour yesterday morning he heard prowlers about his house and when he failed to open the door they began to force it open. De Salvo ran to the top floor and called out the window for help. Riotto's response brought the probably fatal volley. After shooting Riotto the blackmailers fled. Several months ago De Salvo received a blackmailing notice and was one night terribly slashed on the face and head with a razor as he responded to a knock at his front door.

Later he was fired upon from ambush, but was uninjured. MERCHANT BRUTALLY ASSAULTED. Badly Beaten in His Own House By a Guest. Chester, Feb. police department is investigating the case of a mysterious attack upon Michael Sullivan, a local merchant.

The crab known as the scale-tailed apus was believed to have become extinct in Great Britain fifty years ago, the last recorded specimens being taken in the ponds Hampstead Heath. But now it has turned up again in some numbers in two ponds on Preston Merse, near Southwiek, in Kirkeudbrightshire.

About two and a half inches long, the apus bears a very striking license to that remarkable creature, the king crab, and this because the forepart of the body is covered by a great semicircular shield, or carapace, while, as in the king crab, it swims on its back. In the great number of its legs the scale-tailed apus has few rivals, while in the number of the joints. which these share between them no other creature can compare. The Naturalist Schaffer once essayed task of counting them, and made the magnificet totul of 1,802,604. Latrene down the number at a round A Tip For Fat Women.

Drugs The nervous system is the source of all human energy, mental and physical. Anything that injures the nerves impairs the activity of mind and body.

Stimulating drugs are especially injurious, and should be avoided except in cases of emergency. They do not add an ntom of permanent vigor nor contain an iota that is natural or needful to the body. Stimalants simply whip the tired and weak nerves into action, as does a whip applied to a tired horse, and reaction is sure to follow, leaving he nerves still weaker. Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer does not contain alcohol or any harmful drug. It contains properties that are natural and necessary to weak nerves.

It supplies new energy to the nerves to make them permanently strong. The nerves eagerly absorb the properties contained in Wheeler's Nerve Vitalizer, and gratefully respond to its tonic influence by MA RAUM what arousing makes activity health in and the body. should be This promoted activity is by every possible means.

was a fight to the death between a tiger and a leopard in the arena of the winter quarters of the Wallace show yesterday afternoon that animal trainer Garstang was forced to witness but was powerless to prevent. The tiger had been in bad humor and when turned loose in the arena attacked the leopard, throwing it high in the air and slapping it savagely with his paws. The leopard fought desperately, but appeared to be no match for the tiger. Carstang tried to separate the animals, but the tiger turned upon him and he had to flee for his life. Finally the tiger got the leopard down and was tugging at his throat when the apparently exhausted animal turned upon his back, with the tiger directly over him.

With his hind paws he began tearing at tiger's breast. In a few moments leopard's claws the reached the vitals of the tiger and he fell over dead. The smaller animal got up and shook the blood of the tiger from himself. The leopard was badly injured, but it is believed he will recover. SURE CURE FOR BABY'S ITCH.

of all ill health of this generation is caused by stomach trouble, is fast winning a national faith in his theory. His claim is now admitted by a suprising number of people throughout the country, and he is gaining new adherents every day. While speaking of his success in a recent interview, Mr. Cooper said: "I believed ten years ago that holy one who could produce 2 formula that thoroughly regulate the stomach would have a fortune. When I got hold of this formula I knew within six months that I was right, and that my fortune was made.
