A Quiet Movement, With no Price Changes
of Much Importance.

There was no vim in stock trading at the
first call yesterday, and nothing was done ex-

was taken at the two subsequent calls and
business was moderately brisk, sales aggre.

to your support.

W A LANES Secretary
The Mayor in Retreat.

Since the above was published in the
daily papers the mayor has reversed his
former decision, and now proposes to
sign the Sundayclosing ordinance. So
much has been gained by your prompt
and decided action. On the oath inst.
Mayor Hazard wrote to the council Of
the situation as it is today, to-wit:
The council refusing to lessen the
license fee of saloons, | shall re-
turn the ordinance unsigned. Now
driven to it by the uprising OF the
people at his usurpation of authority
over them, he returns it signed. Many
OF us desired to vote for him, and there
fore desired him to take this reasonable.
safe and just position. AS personal friends
we urged him to it, but he positively re-
fused, and doggedly persisted in such
refusal. Alarm for his success at the
election has now given us our right. He
has yielded to political advantage to him
self what he refused to his duty to you.
Can we entrust the enforcement of
this ordinance, involving therein as it
does the gravest interests of our city as a
whole and OF many of its citizens indi-
vidually, to a man who thus subordi-
mates the public good to his personal ad-
vancement?
This measure of Sunday closing may
require additional legislation to secure
its object, or a hostile council may
without another appeal to the people on
this question, rescnd the present ordin
ance for Sunday closing. Is it safe for
the policy you decided on at the election
on the 18th inst. to trust it and the
precious rights and interests involved to
such a man? Ordinary prudence says
no. Every dictate of good judgment re-
quires man in the mayors Office like
John Shirley Ward, who knows but one
rule of action-right and duty, and a
friend of economy and reform equal to
the present needs OF this city. we
know him, and he being thus known his
selection was deliberately made after
full consideration of all the qualifications
needed in our mayor. We recommend
John Shirley Ward for mayor without
hesitation or reserve.

HEALTHY EXHIBIT.
Not One-Lunger or a Valetudinarian
by a Long Shot.

The Express of Friday gave a graphic,
even if false, description of John Shirley
Ward. 1t described him as very aged
gentleman, in very bad health, new
conner to Los Angeles and an attorney
without practice. As Mr.. Ward is only
in his sixties, is in robust health, has
lived in this city for five years and
within few score miles of it for fifteen.
and has retired from general practice, it
will be seen that the Express made one
of its usual veracious ten-strikes. Yes
terday, Mr.. Ward, after walking from
his home on Twelfth street, dropped
into the Express Office and asked the
editors what they thought OF his general
hygienic condition after personal in
spection. They admitted that he looked
like anything but a one-lunger. If Mr..
Ward were on his muscle, we believe he
could knock out any man of his weight
around the Express office.

This seems paradox, but it is ex-

The 'Discovery" strikes at the seat of
the complaint. Consumption is q dis

some years ago in Maryland. The ac-

that the COW had mo business on the

promptly decided for the plaintiff.
The company's attorney was greatly

what grounds he could arrive at such a
decision. He said in reply that the
company was negligent in not putting

He Was Ready for the Emergency
From the New York Times.

"Don't pick it up, Alice; it's ruined
beyond redemption" said one of two
ladies to the other while about to cross
Fulton Street at Broadway, on recent
rainy day. The younger of the two had
dropped a dainty cambria handker-
chief into the black mud Of the gutter.
Nonsense, Amelia" replied the
young lady; do you think Pm going to
leave it there % But before she could
reach it a young man pushed through
the crowd and dexterously lifted the
handkerchief from its miry bed. He
gave it shake that made it shed some
of the mud, and, while the ladies
looked on in gratified surprise. he took
an envelope out of his pocket and,
deity inserting the bit of cambria,
handed it to the younger lady. Then
with bow he disappeared in the hur-
rying throng. After the ladies' had
crossed the street Alice glanced at the
envelope and exclaimed: Amelia,
there's an address on it, if Alice is
romantic the young man may regain his
envelope inclosed in scented note of
thanks, and then--who knows?

vises the Reporter Not To.


vises the Reporter Not To.
"Humbug? Of course it is. The So
called science of medicine is humbug,
and has been from the time of Hippoc-
rates to the present. Why, the biggest
crank in the Indian tribes is the medl-
cine man.
Every frank was the admission, es-
pecially SO when it came from one of the
biggest young physicians of the city, one
whose practice is among the thousands,
though he has been graduated but few
years." says the Buffalo Courier. every
coy was his office, too, with its cheer
FIJI CRATE fire, its Queen Anne furniture,
and its many lounges and easy chairs.
He stirred the FIRE lazily, lighted fresh
cigar, and went on:''
Take the prescriptions laid down in
the books and what do you find? Poi
sons mainly, and nauseating stuffs that
would make healthy man an invalid.
Why In the world science should go to
polsons for its remedies [ cannot tell,
nor can find anyone who can"
"How does doctor know the effect
of his medicine ?" he asked. "He calls,
prescribes, and goes away The only
way to Judge would be to stand over the
bed and watch the patient. This can
not be done. So. really, / don't know
now ne is TO tell what good or hurt he
does. Some time ago, you remember,
the Boston Globe sent out a reporter
with a stated set of symptoms. He
went to eleven prominent physicians
and brought back eleven different pre-
scriptions. This just shows you how
much science there is in medicine. }"
There are local diseases of various
characters for which nature provides
positive remedies. They may not be
included in the regular physicians list,
perhaps, because of their simplicity, but
the evidence of their curative power is
beyond dispute. Kidney disease is
cured by Warmers Safe Cure, strictly
herbal remedy. Thousands of persons,
every year, write as does II. J. Gardiner,
of Pontiac, r. l., August Z, 1890:
"A few years ago l suffered more than
probably ever will be known outside of
myself, with kidney and liver complaint.

from the London Times.

TTOul lue LOuQOu lines.
Herr George Kreuzberg, who lived at
Ahrweiler had vineyard on the left
bank of the River Abr, at short dis
lance from the village of Neue nahr.
He noticed that the vines would not
flourish on particular spot, and he
learned that carbonic acid gas issued
from the ground there An eminent
geologist, Prof BISHOP, of Bonn, was
consulted as to whether anything could
be done in the matter, and he suggest
ed that search should be made for a
mineral spring, which might prove
quite as remunerative as the most pro-
ductive vines that the earth could pro-
duce. Accordingly a well was sunk,
and at the depth of forty feet spring
was reached which rose to the surface
with the force and effect of small Ice
landic geyser. This occurred in 1851.
The pollinariskirche is not far distant
from the spring which was named after
it.
Chemical analysis showed close re-
semblance between the Apollinaris
Spring and those at Settlers and Ems.
while in one respect it differed from any
one Of those which were then in high
repute. This consisted in its containing
such an extraordinary proportion of
carbonic acid as to cause the water to
boil upward as if it had been forced
from below under steam pressure. The
volume of gas is so great that it is
dangerous to approach the spring on a
MINDLESS day. More than one fatal ac-
cident has been caused by approaching
the spring and inhaling the gas. AT the
outset it was found difficult TO bottle the

Nearly Everybody

Is troubled more or less with catarrh in the
head. 1t originates in cold, or success
sion of colds, combined with impure
blood. Disagreeablc flow from the nose,
tickling in the throat. offensive breath,
pain over and between the eyes, ringing
and bursting noises in the ears, are the
more common symptoms. Catarrh is
cured by Hoods SarSaparilla, which
strikes directly at its cause by removing
all impurities from the blood, building up
the diseased tissues, and giving healthy
tone to the whole system.
