Catarrh

rs blood disease. Until the poison Is
expelled from the system, there can
be no cure for this loathsome and
dangerous malady. Therefore, the only
effective treatment is thorough course
of Ayers Sarsaparilla - the best of all
blood purifiers. The sooner you begin
the better delay is dangerous.
81 was troubled with catarrh for over
two years. / tried various remedies,
and was treated by number of physi-
clans, but received no benefit until /
began to take Ayers Sarsaparilla. A
few bottles of this medicine cured me of
this troublesome complaint and COM
pletely restored my health. Jesse NJ.
Boggs, Holman's Mills, N. G.
"When Ayers Sarsaparilla was rec
commended to me for catarrh, / was in
elined to doubt its efficacy. Having
tried so many remedies, with little ben
eft, had no faith that anything would
cure me. / became emaciated from loss
Of appetite and impaired digestion. l
had nearly lost the sense of smell, and
my system was badly deranged. l was
about discouraged, when a friend urged
me to try Ayers Sarsaparilla, and re-
ferred me to persons whom 1t had cured
of catarrh. After taking half dozen
bottles of this medicine, am convinced
that the only sure way of treating this
obstinate disease is through the blood"

OF course good deal of money is being
I made in Washington out of suburban
property, and W. have n lot of women here
who make ads of money out of real es-
tate. Mrs pHltcn, wife of the California
millionaire. added materially to her fort
une in this way before she died, and there are
n number Of other society ladies' who spec
ulate in houses and lots Not few of the
fortunes of Washington are founded on
real estate, and a large part of that left by
Corcoran comes from the rise Of Washing
ton property
One Of the most aristocratic families in
the northwest section dates its origin back
to a LOT which the grandfather of the high
toned young ladies of today owned This
grandfather was a butcher, and he had a
very pretty daughter whom the cook of
Sir Charles Vaughn, the British minister
to the United States n decade or so ago,
saw and fell in love with. When Vaughn
went back to England the cook remained
and married the daughter of the butcher.
The butcher died, leaving his lot, which
was sold Mt an enormous figure and which
formed the foundation of the present fam
ily's fortune.
Not long ago the butchers daughter took
the daughters of poor but blue bloodcd
naval officer into Washington society. In
speaking to one of the most refined ladies
Of Washington about It she said "What
an idea, Mrs. Blank. I don't think we
ought TO admit these people to our circle.
Washington society is growing so com
mon, and we really must draw the lina
somewhere"
Yes" replied the lady sarcestically,
that may be true, hut where shall we
draw the line, at the sirloin or the tender

SEVEN BULLETS In HIS GUN.


How a Soldier Who Died Mt Gettysburg
Handled His Musket.
After the battle of Gettysburg, says III. G.
Farris in tie ST. Louis Globe Democrat, l
was one OF a party detailed to gather up the
guns and accouterments which had been
left on the field by dead and wounded men.
One of the guns seemed heavier than the
others, and | took the ramrod and sounded
the barrel to see If the piece was loaded.
The ramrod would not 60 more than half
way down, and just to satisfy my curiosity
/ sat down and drew ont the contents. after
an Intellectual effort 10 discharge the piece.
First came bullet, then charge of
powder, then two bullets rammed down on
tor of each other, then another charge of
powder and another bullet, then three bullets
on top of each other, the last one without
any powder underneath. which accounted
for my failure to make the gun 20 off.
In all there were seven bullets and two
charges of powder in tina. gun, and 70 doubt
the soldier who used it was under the i'm
preston he was doing good service the whole
time. A number of the guns picked up had
more than one charge in them, but none
were so heavily loaded as that just described.
When SO much firing was going on, and the
whole air was flied with smoke, the soldier
could not tell whether his gun went off or
not, and in the excitement he went on load
ing and, as he thought, firing, until killed.

ALONG THE RAIL.
Surveys Being Made for New Line to
Los An geles.

surveys being bthue LOT new LIMO 10
Los An geles.
Surveys are being made for Mt W railrc ad
from Dumbarton Point to Los Angeles, to
be built and o; Grated by the recently incor-
porated San jose and Southern Company.
E. P. Webster OF San Jose. who is one of
the heaviest holders in the newly Or
gained company, said yesterday that the
surveying for the proposed line would re-
quire from forty to sixty days He did not
seem willing TO say Just what the probable
route would be, as the matter is purely
business proposition, and such knowledge
might have some effect on the price of land
desirable for right of way. When the work
of surveying Is concluded the company will
lay proposition before the people of Santa
Clara and adjoining counties intended to
meet with general approval, and arouse the
residents 10 the crying necessity Of line
such as the one proposed.
Ever since this schepe was settled upon
by several San Jose capitalists, and more
ton were filed with the County Clerk CT
Santa Clara, there has been lurking and,
perhaps, well-founded suspicion in the
minds Of many people that the Atehison,
Topeka and Santa Fe's gold is behind this
project Whether this conclusion was
drawn from the fact that prominent Santa
Fe official is largely interested in the con-
stIuction Of this line, cannot, OF course, be
learned.
f. 5. Douty, Secretary of the Pacific In
provement Company, emphatically denies
the report that he has sent man through
the San Ramon Valley soliciting signatures
to contract, which binds the signer to
ship no freight by any other than the
Southern Pacific Company for the next five
years, in consideration of the Southern
Pacific Company's agreement to commence
at once work on the San Ramon Valley line
Qor which right of way has been granted.
" | cannot imagine where this story Or
iginated," said Mr.. Douty yesterday. 1.-The
delay in commencing the construction of
this road has been on account of difficulties
experienced in securing the right of way.
However, that is all settled now, and our
Chief Engineer is on the ground and work
will be commenced at once"
