Which the bills of mortality OF any large
city may be fifty designated, and you will
find that renal and vesical maladies, that
is to say, those that affect the kidneys OF
bladder, have a remarkable prominence
VIC had almost said-prcpondcrance
Bright's disease and diabetes in the
chronic stages are rarely cured, and gravel,
catarrh of the bladder and enurcsis slay
many. Yet at the outset, when the
trouble merely mounts to inactivity OF
the organs involved, the danger may be
nullifed by that pleasant renal tonic and
diuretic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which imparts the requisite amount OF
tone to the organs, without over exciting
them, and the use of which is convenient,
and involves no elaborate preparation.
Dyspepsia, a usual concomitant of renal
complaints. and debility, which they in
variably produce. are remedied by it. So
also are constipation. malarial, rheumatic
and nervous ailments.

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 6.-Information
has reached this city that John d. Wal
then, a partner OF George K White, who
is one of the wealthiest men in Northern
California, was shot and killed at Covello,
Mendocino county, Monday night, by
Clarence White, his brother-in-law, and
cousin of George K. White. George 4.
White recently commenced suit against
his third wife for divorce, and Walthen
had been instrumental in securing evil
dence in the case for his partner. 1t is
also claimed that he aided his partner in
securing a divorce from his firt wife by
perjury, and was preparing to perform a
similar service in the case of the second
wife when the latter died before the di-
vorce could be procured, and White soon
after married his cousin, frankie White,
from whom he is now seeking divorce.
Last Monday the attorneys on both
sides, including Waltheu and Clarence
White, Mrs. Whites brother, were at
Covello engaged in taking dispositions to
be used in the divorce proceedings. Wal.
then and Clarence White were in a room
at the hotel and its claimed that Walthen
attempted to prevent him from entering
another room where the witnesses were
being examined and that he made an eff
fort to draw a revolver. Before he could
do so, however, White drew his " wcap-
on and fired, striking Walthen in the tenn
pie. White was arrested and released on
bail.
Walthen had u desperate record, hav-
ing killed two men in almost similar

"In one moment, SIR"

1t is his duty to keep track of the bones
lent, to enter them upon books and to see
That they are eturned uninjured. During
the day scores of students flock in and
out OF the place carrying packages OF
strange appearance in their hands or
sticking out of their coat pockets. They
contain m bones of all shapes and
sizes, which they are returning to or tax
ing from the "Bone Circulating Librnry.u
by this means they are enabled to prose-
cute their studies at home. Some of them
may be seen going through the streets
carrying fragments of skeletons uncovered
In their hands. Every student is entitled
to n complete skeleton after having dis
sected an entire subject, but during the
prosecution of his studies it is n great nd
vantage to have separate bones to study,
and hence the establishment of the circu-
iatlng system.-New York Evening Sun.

They Loved at First Sight.

ST. PAUL, Jan. Quite a sensation
has been created in social circles here by
the deEoument of a romano that begun
in Italy. Miss Laura Bellini, the prima
donna of the Gypsy Baron cast, some
seven or eight years ago was a pupil in
the famous Milan musical conservatory
preparing herself for the operatic stage.
G. Crayton Webb, a rich young English
man, who was doing the continent at
the time, stopped for n season at Milan.
While there he was fascinated with the
handsome and winning manners of the
young American opera singer. 1t was the
old story OF love at first sight; a meeting,
an acquaintance, a reciprocity of senti-
ment, and before they were aware of it
two young hearts were launched on loves
broad ocean, sailing together under sunny
skies and waited along by delicious breezes
toward the haven of perpetual bliss. 1t
was no filtration folly. On the contrary
it was n genuine love episode, and the
Englishman had arranged his plans to
take the Young American song-bird back
with him in the spring to occupy the
proud position OF first lady, but cold.
hearted relatives interfered. Pressure
brought to bear by aunts and cousins and
the whole coterie of family relations on an
English estate was too much for the young
man to stand up under
The American girl was as proud as her
lovers relatives, and when she learned
that they objected on account of her being
an American girl without rank or title,
she spunkily snapped her finger in their
faces and told them there were just as
good fish in American seas as ever swan
in English waters. All matrimonial ar
engagements ended right then and there.
The lovers parted, and their paths never
crossed again until last week. Mr.. Webb.

Paul, dropped into the theater one even

Milan sweetheart of years ago stepped
out from the gypsy caye and began to
MARBLE the sweet strain of a gypsy song.
The light Of other days poured in upon
him, and memory had a revival that dis

love came to life again, and overtures for
a renewal of marriage vows were made.
The American girls spunk, however, was
still in the ascendaDcy. The young man
was made to understand that she was
capable of making her own living now,
and wouldn't marry any English chap who
could be ruled by his dowager aunts and
cousins. Webb's friends are doing their
best to bring about n reconciliation be-
tween the singer and her ~disconsolate
lover.

RICKABAUGHS GAME.
An Omcer Put in the Place to Stop It-A
 Denial.
L. A Time

IL. A. Time-l
 The publication ID yesterdays TIMEs that Chief Benedict had determined to suppress Rickabaugh's faro game ID the Phillips block by ststIOning sn eff
 cer ID full uniform ID the hallway of the building where the game IS located. created quite stir in gambling cicles. Mr. RIckabsugh promply called at the office of the Chief of Police to deneunce the TINES article as "a lie" He said that there never had been a game run since they had been ordered to stop. and that only poker was played in his rooms. The Chief told him tbai it had been re- ported by several officers that faro was played in the place, and that the same report had came to him from other sour ues. Mir Rick8bsugh was of course, en- titled to hls statement, but, just the same, he would station SD off ser ID the place, and then he would be certain to catch him if he was playing. and if he was not, then II would do him no harm Officer Bosqui was therefore detailed for the work, and spent yesterday afternoon in the place, dnring which time, at least, the tiger did not come out of bis lair. During the afternoon one of the lessees of the Phillips block also called on the Chief, and asked him what he msnt by putting a polIcem n m the house. The Chief asked him If he did otknow that there was game running in the room, to which the lessees replied, "But they won't gamble while the officer is there, you know" "Ot course not" said the Chief. land that is why I put hIm there" As no answer could be made 10 this the gentleman left, and the probabilities are that the officer will be continued until the place IS broken up. At least one well-known gambler yesterday told a TIMES reporter as fact that faro was played in this place, Mir. Rickabsuch's denial to the contrary notwithstanding. In reporting the existence of the RihkGbsCgh game, the Herald went ont of its way to indulge Tn a oOntemtlble, gratuitous fling st TIE TINES reporters by intImRting that, because DO mention had been made of if, Perhaps IKE TINES reporters were standing in." As 8 mat ter of fact. THE TIMas knew when the place was started, when it was said it
 WAS a poker room. From time to time inquiry has been made of the police, and the answer has always been that no games were running. When it was first reported that faro was being played there, TIE TIMES was informed of it. and it would have been written up but for the fact that the reporter was told that efforts were being made by the pO-
 lice to pull it. which IS the only reason nothing was said. As to TINES reporters "standing in." that is ali nonsence, and it IS not believed that any member of the Herald city staff wrote any such stuff, for they know better. The cOntemptible reference to MT. Humphreys in the same connection is as sufficient indi- cation of where the report came from.
