This places Don Enrique ON the half pay

the Queen at time when she had given
orders that she would receive no one
but Cardinal Benavides. II was claimed
by the offenders friends that he was
under the influence of liquor, but he was
on military duty at the Palace Guard
and when repulsed from the Queens
door slandered her. This subjected
him to court-martial, and the Borbon
family felt the disgrace OF the young
Dukes conduct so keenly that they Of
fered no interfere nee TO the course of
military procedure against their relative
who all during the trial was treated as
an ordinary officer. The Dukes father.

torians say murdered) by Due de
Montpensier, the father of Mercedes,
Alfonso's first wife. in one of the most
remarkable duels ever fought. This
took place on the artillery grounds near
Madrid, on March IL, 1870, and after
each combatant had fired two Ineffective
shots and Don Enrique had wasted his
third, the Due de Montpensier took de-
liberate aim and shot his antagonist
through the head, killing him almost
instantly.

sion at the preliminary examination,
gave his testimony. 1t was substantially
to the effect that three meetings, at
tended by from nine to eighteen parties,
were held, at which the question of
Powers being invited to leave the eoun-
try or be hanged was discussed, as here
tofore reported. He repeated his former
testimony. He testified explicitly to
the fact Of Prewett's having pointed
out the spot where Powers body
lay and telling him that he had
killed him; also, to the administration
of oaths to the conspirators and the fact
Of all joining in the hanging and put

at the meetings that a settler named
Montez, who had won lawsuit against
Powers, had some horses killed and
the deceased was charged with it, al.
though tried and acquitted Of the Of
fense; that he was accused of killing
cattle belonging to neighbor; of setting
fire TO Prewett's field; of burning a
neighbor's wagon; that he had written

Driving ON. Chinese shoemaker..

SAN Francisco, February 25.-J. s.
Enos, United States Commissioner OF
the Bureau of Labor, has completed his
investigations iso the boot and shoe
trade in this city, and submitted his re-
port to the Secretary of the Boot and
Shoe Makers White Labor League to-
night. After reviewing the business in
a general way. he says: "a large num-
ber of Chinese hands have been dis
charged by the white manufacturers,
the business of the Chinese manufac-
turers has decreased and is decreasing
very rapidly. All this has been derived
from the issuance and use of the stamp.
But would suggest the propriety Of the
League in conjunction with manufactur-
ers and dealers Of having enacted at the
next meeting of the Legislature proper
stamp law, compelling the use of the
stamp by all manufacturers, designating
what kind OF labor was used in the
manufacture Of the goods made by them
and containing penal code clause in
case of violation" In conclusion the
report says: 1.-THE investigation has
practically demonstrated the availability
OF white boys aud girls in supplanting
Chinese labor in the industry of the
boot and shoe trade II the concerted
action of manufacturers and dealers re-
ceive proper encouragement from the
public at large"

San FRANCISCO, February 25.-In an
swer to Chief Crowley's telegram sent
yesterday to Senator Stanford, asking
him to make arrangements for the arrest
Of Ang Tai Duck by the British govern
ment at Hong Kong, reply was re-
ceived to-day that the same had been re-
ferred to Secretary Bayard for action.
Chief of Police Crowley to-day also re-
ceived letter from Senator Stanford,
which was addressed to the latter
by Secretary Bayard, at Washington,
which explains the action of Secretary
Bayard in the matter of the extradiiion
of Ang Tai Duck, the murderer of the
Wickershams. The letter in part says:
"There being no extradition treaty be-
tween the United States and Japan, this
Government exhausted all of its power
under the international law by asking
il Japan would be willing to give up the
alleged murderer to the agents of the
State of California for trial. The
Japanese government answered that the
culprit. being a Chinese subject. could
not be given up in the absence Of a
treaty. Since then application has
been made to the British government to
have the fugitive arrested at Hong Kong
and held Tor extradition under the treaty
with Great Britain. 1t would appear
from the telegram that the Japanese
authorities have found way out OF the
difficulty raised by the culprit's nation

cATARRH, ETC.

At times many of the symptoms of Ca
tarrh may seem to abate, and tbe patient is
led to hope that the disease Is about to wear
off, but another class of symptoms soon ap-
pears, end he learns to his horror that in
stead OF recovery from the disease, it is
somewhat changed in its character, and has
extended to the throat. sense of weari-
ness is sometimes felt in reading, speaking
or singing hoarseness at times occurs,
sensation of dryness Is felt in the throat, or
Ii appears thai some foreign substance, as
for Instance hair, obstructed tue throat;
there becomes a sense OF languor and fa-
tigue, breath lessons upon little exertion,
short, hacking cough, peculiar sound in
clearing the throat, feeling as though
there was not room enough in the chest TO
breathe: these and other symptoms occur
after the disease has made considerable pro
gress. Then 1t is time when consumption
Is about to begin its dreadful work. Up to
this time the progress of the disease may
have been slow, and the patient may, in ex,
pressing his conndent hope that IL will
"wear off" declare that he has had the ca
tarrh for years, and has not seemed to be-
come much worse, and trusts that he will
"by and by" recover; but this delusiOn is
the grand error which has peopled our Gem
eterles with consumptive forms.
The people do not require to be told the
symptoms of consumption, for there is
scarcely a family whose circle has not been
where some loved one has not felt its blight
and either passed away from earth or is
wasting to- day and seeming the hopeless
victim of this terrible disease.
The symptoms of the first stage of con-
sumption are various. The following are
prominent. and whenever any of them ex-
list a thorough examination should always
be m ade with view to arresting the dis
ease, II shown to exist: There Is usually a
sense of weariness upon little exercise. a
disposition to remain passive and idle, de-
spondency-oftent from no apparent
cause. peculiar sensitiveness to the effect
of cold, and breathlessness upon moving
quickly or ascending hill or stairs, a slight
hacking cough. with or without expectora-
tion, excitabllity upon slight occasion, hy-
ing paius through the chest or back, or un-
derth shoulder blades. The symptoms are
more noticeable toward or during the night;
slight fever in the afternoon; cold feet and
hands, or in many cases q blue lividity OF
the lips and roots of the finger nails.
We positively affirm that three-fOurths of
the vast number who die of Consumption
might be saved, did they awaken to the true
sense OF danger when the disease trst ap-
peared In the head and throat. and the best
writers, the ablest physicians OF the age,
have expressed similar opinions.
Although our climate is the best in the
world, still our friends should not depend
upon climatic influences alone, for herein
lies the fatal mistake. Nearly every case
requires positive medication, as we'll as
proper climatic influences, so as to become
rid of the offending matter-the consolt
dated portions OF the lungs-thereby giving
nature an opportunity to heal them
