The rartlce Mclieine Rochester, N. 1. Gentlemen I was first taken with the inflammatory rheumatism March. IN7S). I never did a tap of work for even months.

There were six weeks that I hud no use of my feet and lees. I was in such pain I could not sleep more than two or three minutes ar a time, then I would wake up with sweat running otf from me. My feet and leirs were so swollen I could not (ret on my overalls, and I had to have the room kept very wannsotDHt I could Jie with nothlnir over me. I bad five doctors and paid them 1G3. and all they did was to blister my feet and lesfs until the skin came off and to (rive me sonicthimr to put me to sleop when I was tired out.

In 1HS0 I bad another attack, this time in neck and arms, and for four weeks I eat In a rockintrchuir. or six years I. took all the different medicines I saw advertised without the least benefit. Finally I fried the Pardee cure two years turo and took 17 bottles that time and have not felt a twinge of rheumatism since. 1 probably took far more than 1 needed to, but after trying a few bottles and feelinir so much better I kent on as I was so afraid 1 would stop too soon.

From that time I make practice of taking a couple of bottles twice a year as a preventative, I have such a terror of (roinjr through that awful suffering aKHin; but 1 don't thinktitis necessury.for I know that the first few bottles made a complete euro.

GUGGENHEIM'S HAIR EMPORIUM, "Willi comb llouso Block. Tice's Desperate Deed Described by Eye Witnesses. INSANITY IS THE DDFENSE The Prosecution Begins Weaving a Net of Damaging Evidence About the Gray-haired Prisoner Charge of Cruelty Made by His Step-daughter. The morbid interest that always centers in a trial in which life is at stake, filled the court room of the Oyer and Terminer yesterday during the second day of the trial of Tice, the wife murderer. The prisoner, neatly dressed, sat throughout the day lie-side his attorneys, and consumed a large quantity of chewing tobacco as he nervously watched the various witnesses who look the stand.

But little time was spent at the morning session in securing the two men necessary to complete the jury, the members of which are: William F. Fuhrmann, foreman, Fourteenth ward; David II. Ellsworth, farmer, Perinton; Aden Densniore, painter, Fifth ward; Hiram B. Deyo, farmer, Webster; Caspar Kamm, contractor, Thirteenth ward: Edwin Emeus, farmer, Riga; Daniel Williams, farmer, Greece; John G. Popp, shoemaker, Twelfth ward; William Ballard, farmer, Ogden; William T.

Cooks-ley, carpenter, Seventh ward; Hugh A. Smith, farmer, Ogden; Daniel Schout, painter, Fifth ward. After the roll had been called Major Benton opened the prosecution. He urged upon the jury the great importance of thtir position and the fact that it lay in their power to secure the ends of justice. He continued: How far the veil will be lifted from the lives of these two people I cannot say.but so far as the veil is lifted it will show a life of suffering, perhaps two lives in which there was much of trouble.

Xot to inflame your prejudices against tnis man, out simply to comply with the purposes of the law, it is my duty to show you that a malicious hatred grew up in tho liosom of this man. He prepared himself for this terrible work. He ground his knife carefully and sedulously. It was a knife used in the shop where he worked, and not an ordinary pocket-knife which can be whippet! out in a moment of passion. He had caused his wife's arrest, and she in turn had secured his imprisonmont in the penitentiary.

When he was released he attempted to bring about a reconciliation. The wife refused. And so, on the afternoon in question, he went to Mrs. Kehi's house, with murder in his heart. The deed was iWie in silence.

Never was a crime more cold-blooded," Houston Barnard, a surveyor, was the first witness, and presented in evidence a number of measurements which he had taken in the vicinity of the Kehl house. Mary M. Kehl, for whom Mrs. Tice was working, thou testified: "I have known Tice for several years and he had boarded at my house. His wife lived with him part of the time.

The first stabbing affair occurred at my house two years ago. She came back to my house last spring where she stayed until she was killed. When he was released from the penitentiary last Jnlv he came to see his wife and coaxed her to live with him, but she refused. Then be asked me to talk with her in his behalf. The afternoon of the murder, Mrs.

Tice and I were both at work ia the Iritchen, Tice came to the door and said: 'Hello, Aggie, will you come and live with meV She said, No, I won't. You have stabbed me once and I will not live with I stepjM-d out of the room and when I came back I saw Tice strike at his wife and saw the blood. Tice had that knife in his hand. She staggered out into the yard and Tice followed her. She fell in the yard and Tice went around in front of the house where he sat ou the stoop." Mrs.

Gabriel Kuhn, sister of Mrs. Kehl, and wife of the man Kuhn, who was sentenced Monday to serve five years at, Auburn for attempted murder, testified that the murdered woman told her that Tice did the deed. Ijawrcnoe Mayer, a young son of Mrs. Kuhn, testified that he saw Mrs. Tice run out of the house and fall in the yard.

Tice was standiug near the back door and he started to run towards him. Tice afterwards disappeared across the lot iu the rear of the house. This testimony was corroborated by "William Mayer, a former older brother of the witness. Constable Frank King who arrested Tice as he was hurrying from the scene of the murder was the next witness. He said: I was driving along Xorth Goodman street with two acquaintances when I saw a man running towards us and calling for the police.

I asked him what was the matter aud he said: 'That man coming there, has just stabbed his I jumped out of the wagon just as Tice come up on a trot and told him to stop. There were fifteen or twenty persons following him and he stopped just before he got to me and brandished a knife which he was carrying in his right hand. I ordered Tice to stop but he told me to get out of the way, (tilling me a vile name. As Tice passed me I struck at him with my handcuffs and we clenched. A young tuau named Lord, canto up then and together we pot the handcuffs on him and put him in the wagon.

We took Tice towards East Main street where we met the patrol wagon." 1 lie witness recognize! tue kmte wiucn was produced, as the one Tice had in his hattd, aud said that it was covered with fresh blood. ilham H. Carrier, the next witness testified: I saw Tice about 2 or 3 o'clock on the afternoon of that day when Mrs, Tice was killed. I met LiiD on Main street and he asked me to take a drink with him. We had a glass of beer together He produced a revolver and said he had just bought it.

Iho revolver was loaded and I advised him to put it away. Tice did not mention his wife on that day, but I hud heard him speak nliout her frequently before. I said something about Mrs. Tice to him and told him he was as independent as she and advised him to keep away from her. He said he guessed he would.

Tice was intoxicated at the time." Enos Sn viler, an employe at Brown Moser's shoo on Goodman street, near the Kehl residence, said that he had worked with the prisoner for several years in the shon. The witness identified the knife shown as the one he had seen Tice grinding on an emery wheel several lays before the murder. I asked Tice what he was doing with the knife and he replied that he was sharpening it for one of the bovs down stairs. Tice was fre quently in the habit of sharpening knives at this wheel both for himself and the men in the shop. I never saw that particular knife before and never knew of such a knife lieing used about the shop." Stephen Hilbrctsen, another workman at Brown Moser's shop, testified that Tice had returned to work after his discharge from the penitentiary on July 4th.

He said, I have seen such a knife as Tice had at the emery wheil downstairs. We could not find that knife after the murder, although I have heard that it was found in the shop recently. I have known Tice for several years. I have seen him watching the Kehl house from a door in the back of the shop. I have heard him say, he was I A Big Batch of Business Disposed of at Last Night's Meeting.

An important resolution was offered by Alderman Kelly, and referred to the charter amendment committee, asking the senator and assemblymen from this district to secure the passage of amendments to the existing ballot law. The amendments, relate to the registration frauds, the changes asked being that at least one of the four days of registration shall be some day other than Saturday, and that upon two of the days the registry books shall lie opened at 0 o'clock in the morning instead of at 9 o'clock as at present. These amendments, the alderman explained, are demanded by the mass of laboring men who go to work before the registry books are opened, and who on Saturday evenings are prevent ed from registering because they are obliged to make their week purchases.

Xo new facts were elicited in the testimony that followed and the court adjourned to this morning. BOYS' EVENING HOME. The Third Year Started Auspiciously at Last Night's Meeting. The Boys Evening Home began its third year last night and about oni hundred boys attended and gave it a very noisy start.

President Eugene T. Curtis was there, together with the lady officers of the home, and they were all kept exceedingly busy attending to their guests. The boys were evidently glad to get back and the officers were evidently glad to have them, and it was a very pleasant affair all around. There was no special entertainment or anjthing of that sort, but the boys amused themselves with the many games and the books and pictures provided for their pleasure, and when the time came for closing were very loath to go. There was a good deal of noise and a good bit of i kylarking, v.ith now and then an incipient fight over some of the but as a whole the officers said that the boys were far better behaved than they were during the first two years of the Lome's existence.

A great many of the boys who were there last night were the same ones who attended regularly last year, but there were some new ones. and the officers feel highly encouraged over the outlook for the coming year.
