HOW IT STARTED.
A Friendly Favor to Wounded
Soldiers Originates a National
Custom.

Custom.
The late Hon. j. F. Trumbull, of Con-
n~ecticut, was called 'the friend of the
soldiers because it was through his in
fuence that water was furnished to sick
and wounded soldiers while travelling during
the war. This practice has further de-
veloped into the universal American habit of
drinking ice-water on all available occasions.
SO universal has this become, that it may be
called our national habit. and it has begotten
a craving for ice-water that is quite appaII-
ing. The INTRODUCTION of the water cooler III
offlces is bad. Most water is filled with the
germs of disease and its cold action on the
stomach checks digestion, lowers the tone of
the stomach and brings about dyspepsia. with
all its attendant ills. This evil, which Is the
cause OF more summer sickness and kidney
disease than any other known cause. can
readily be avoided by mixing a. little pure
whlskey with the drinking water. Thus the
stomach can be stimulated into healthy ac-
ton and its tone retained. Not only this. but
pure whiskey mixed with the water kills the
germs OF any disease that may he lurking in
the water, and thus avoids malaria and the
term. But while whiskey is a great benefit. it
must be pure whiskey, and unfortunately
there is little pure whiskev in the market.
There can be not the slightest doubt. how
ever, as to the absolute purity of Duffy's
Pure Malt. 1t has stood the test of time. 1t
is used by the leading men and women of the
land. 1t is so pure IN its nature that it can
not harm even a child. and it is doing more
than any one thing to cheek Summer dan
gers. Be sure 10 secure the genuine. Insist
on having no other.

salutary Blood-Lettinr.

Two laboring men got into a dispute
last evening at the union depot over a
jackknife, each claiming possession of
it. Sylvester Montour held the knife in
his hand with the blade open, when the
other man, Frank Bell, e~ndeavored to
snatch it from him, with the result that
i'll the scrimmage their fingers were cut,
and they lost a%quantity OF blood heated
up to Il dangerous degree by bad
whisky. Officer Mozart. who saw the
affair, promptly placed both men under
arrest, and sent them in the patrol
wagon TO the central station. They
were booked on a charge of drunk and
disorderly conduct. and no doubt a night
i'll the gruesome cells of the city Jail
will show them the folly of their con-
duct.

An Apparently Innocent Man Narrowly
Escapes the PenitentiarY.

A remarkable case has just been tried in
the superior court of SOnOma county, Cal.
Some time ago David Parks, who lives near
Bloomfield. was swindled by the gold brick
dodge. A man calling himself w. l.. Bean,
Shaw, and number of other aliases, was
arrested at San Francisco as the supposed
Swndler. After his arrest at San Francisco
he was identified by the victim, Parks. and
number of neighbors. The trial of
the case lasted over week. Parks and
some of the neighbOrS, some of whom are
the best known men in the county, testified
that they were certain Bean was the man
who swindled Parks. The proprietor of the
Petaluma Hotel testified that Bean had
registered under the name OF Miller at the
hotel just before the Swindle was perpe-
trated. Every witness called was positive
that the prisoner was the man who de-
frauded Parks. The prisoner protested his
innocence and had large number of depO-
sitiOns from New York, ST. Paul, and BOS-
ton to show that he was not in California
when Parks was Swindled. 1t was the gen.
eral impression that fraud was practiced
to procure the dispositions. and the evidence
was so clear that Bean was the right man
that the jury stood six for conviction against
six for acquittal. Bean has crook in his
finger and was soon identified as to that
particular. His peculiar deneanOr while
on trial was such as to aid in conviction.
His case was so peculiar in its nature that
District Attorney Burnett after the trial
went East to test the validity of the deposit
tions He visited st. Paul. Boston and
New York. and found everything true as
stated in the dispositions. The witnesses,
who were reliable men, recognized Beams
photograph and exhibited his signature on
different hotel registers Nothing is known
of his occupation in the East. That he will
be discharged from custody is now almost a
certainty. Minneapolis Evening Tribune.

Sunday Services.

Services we're conducted by Rev. Mr.. Roe. the
basis of his sermon being the nineteenth chapter Of
st. Matthew. The following is but brief outline
of the sermon;
Good Master, what good thing shall do, that
may have eternal life?' This question asked
of Jesus by young man who carefully in
structed il all the laws of the Jews. and who wa
possessed of abundant wealth. He goes to Christ,
whom he thinks human teacher, and asks to be
guided and directed. Christ said unto him, why
callest thou me good? there is none good but one.
that is. God but if thou wilt enter into life, keep
the commandments Still the young man felt
that he must do something himself to purchase
eternal life He did not realize that our defects
are our own, but every virtue and every excellence
comes from God. Men apt to think as did this
young man, that they must accomplish some grand
and sublime deeds, but the true Christian life is
composed of long series of small sacrifices.
On one of the famous battle fields some centu.
ries ago, brave knight was wounded. As you
know, the wounded become very thirsty and crave
for water. A cup Of water was brought to him
but as he raised it to his lips he met the gaze of
poor wounded soldier. ''Thy needs are greater
than mine," said he, and gave the water to the
soldier. This is the true Christian spirit the
spirit of self-denial. You have these opportun
ties right here in prison. Don't wait until your
time expires, don't wait for better circumstances
in life. but do what little good you now, for
God does not promise any tomorrow.
was impressed by piece in your little
paper entitled, when the light goes out" When
the light of life goes out eternity is before US.
Let me beg of you to search the Scriptures"
and become reconciled to God that you may dwell
throughout eternity in the mansions beyond the
skies which the Savior has gone to prepare.
The primal need of the hour is fitness for
the reform work to which we are called;
and that means expansion of ideas and broth

act. Thereon and thereby we catch the
dawning light of the new century near at
