Telegram to TIIK Unr-About ] two months
ago Theodora Dresden , son ot Ooorgo Drcs-
sen , a prominent ranchman living thirty miles
fcouthwost of hero , died and was buried at
Bordutn , Nob. Although two months have
passed , the iloath of this child Is now cmil-
ng con.stdcraDlo comment , nud when the
'nets have all been obtained , thcro will , it Is
llcgod , bo revealed n , murder which is ono of
, ho most brutal and cruel of any In the his
tory of the state ,
Theodore Drossen was born la Germany
Avelvo year * ago and it Is cl.ilmed. that lie Is
fin Illegitimate child , and that Gcorgo
Drcsson Is his father , but that his
mother was a nurse to Mrs , Urcsstnvhcn
: icr first child was horn. Mr. Drcsscn with
ills family has lived whom his homo now Is
'or the lost four years , and the evidence Is
joncluslvo Hint all this tltno tlio child re-
'orrcd to has been shamefully abused by Its
pnrcnU. Ills said that the chlltt seldom got
enough to oat , wai poorly clothed , was not
illowcd to cat nt the table with the rest of
ho family , anil was compelled many times
o sleep In the barn or la hay
utacks. These facts being so generally known
vlien the child died so suddenly , poopo
: > ognn to bare their suspicions aroused , but
is no ono seemed willing to assume the ro-
sponslbilltv to Investigate the C.ISQ It looked
"or a while as if nothing would bo done.
Complaint llually was made to County At
torney Clark of Valentino , Neb. , who , with
heriff Hautm and the county coroner , came
icro a few days ago and proceeded to rnako
in investigation. The body was disinterred
nnd the child's neck was found to have been
broken , Its face nnJ hands badly bruised and
n lartro hole lu the head. At t.ho Inquest
wlilcn was held , a brother and sister of
the dead child gave testimony which was
very damaging- the father. From thorn It
was learned that the liolo in the dead boy's
head was caused by the father knocking the
child atrniust un Iron pump handle. The
"iiincls were bruised while the boy was trying
.o shield his head from the blows of his
rather , The boy would often bo so hungry
, h at ho would a teal broad , und for tills his
inironta would give him a boating. Other
mmaghiKovIdcDce having been obtained the
coroner's jury returned a verdict that the
child came to its death nt the hands of Mr.
and Mrs. George Dresson. Mrs. Drcsson
hclngln a delicate condition no warrant has
yet been issued for her arrest , but ono has
been Issued for George Drossen who has dis
appeared , but ofllccrs nro after him and It Is
thought that ho will soon ho In the hands of
, ho law.

How She Wad UuniploU Up.
She was a pretty girl and a pleasant thing
to see on a rainy day. She got Into a Broud-
way car going down town , says the Jfow
York Sun. Her tailor made costume was
natty. A soft liat Just showed n curlj' bang ,
nnd a Tuxedo veil skirted the tip of her delicate -
cato nose , Slungufrom her arm she carried a
leather bound Bost&ft bag and in ono hand n
sliver mounted Ert Hsk umbrella. The car
was crowded and.ij.hg passengers moved up
when a dapper gentleman yielded his place ;
so the girl squoozod'llnto ' n narrow spnco and
sat on the etl pf. the scat at that.
Her pot up \jjas1 , gentlemanly , but her
pocket was litjrd , to find , Just th
same. In dragging out her purse she spilled
her tiandkorchlof. Bho and the gentleman
oiwoslto bent s { ] | taticously to pick It up.
Their heads cam ? ' In contact and the girl's
hat was punched/Holland / pushed to ono side.
She thanked the gttttloman for her handker
chief. The Jab fiir hat had got had loosened
her voll. IlenrhWir'fap to rearrange both , she
hurst thO pin thirirliJJJii ono cuff. This made
her nervous niunhdVeil wasn't ' fixed straight
by any means , wnuo'tho hat was pinned at n
distinctly rakish angle , and so fur back that
the hong wai pulled out of slgut. When
she took her nrms down the cufl
fell over her knuckles. Sbo couldn't
manaco the pin , whirl ) , being bent ,
was hurting nor dainty wrist , so she
bared ono huiul ot its glove. She tritd to
straighten the pin and lost it. Then she
pushed the cuff up and began to look sovero.
At this point her umbrella fell with n banp
of the silver handle , Stooping for It , she let
her bag drag along ; the dirty door , and that
was muddled at well as the umbrella. She
forgot that her handkerchief bad been in Iho
aamo plnco , nnd she wiped her mouth ns a
filrl will when she is nervous. This gave
her a sinndgo on her chin. Then shu sudden
ly discovered that her street was at hand.
And , Oh I what a sadly different girl it w
who got oat to do her shopping1. Oco hand

"I send this unsolicited as I
feel to congratulate myself that
I used Hood's Sarsaparilla. Six
months ago my digestion was
very bad , and I had almost a
chronic case of dyspepsia. I was
also broken down by overwork ,
so that I could not sleep nights.
My stomach is now perfect ,
my nerves in excellent shape ,
and I have gained 10 pounds in
six months. For all this benefit
Hood's
Sarsaparilla
my gratitude is clue Hood's Sar
saparilla. " 13. H. RO.SK , of
Rose & Eddy , Rochester , N. Y.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is one
of the greatest medicines in the
world. I say this for the bene
fit of all other tired out , run
down , hard working women.
Hood's Sarsaparilla is not only
excellent as a blood purifier ,
but for all female complaints. "
