~ u Habeas Corpus Secures the
Seamen Their Liberty.

z& o. Hnbeas Corpus Secures the
scamen Their Liberty.
e1ta scamen who deserted their ship, the
a i;Ibson, last Monday, and were arrested at
11bstance Of the captain OF the vessel, were
- out Of jail yesterday on writ of habeas
- y Mr.. James Hamilton Lewis, attorney
khe Coast eeamen's Union, and at o'clock
no,e vas heard before Judge Hanford, Ia the
lind States court.
n mes Of the sailors are Frank Wilson, G..
ynen. Bondo Thompson, John Daley, A. Al
-. andrew Johnson, William Hope, J. Hen
ksten, r Kenny and Charles Hensen. They
- eommitted Tuesday by Commissioner
~ IN default OF 500 bail for each, and were
MEnfhe prison ON McNeils island.
O De hearing OF the case Mr.. Lewis argued
ffthe law making desertion misdemeanor
not apply to coastwise trade but only to
- where the vessels ply between home and
I'm ports, or between Atlantic and Pacific
~ where they have to round cape Horn. He
TINED that In this case the ship was practi-
70 It home and therefore no damage could be
1Isiued By reason Of desertion, and that the
III ofc congress contemplated desertion in for
~ poftS, and the law was enacted to prevent
n deeertons and their consequent evils. He
"a that the ct Of June 1874, repealed the acts
ndH which seamen could be held for desert
HIN the coaetwise trade, and the supreme
mi Of the United states had so held.
ASSISTANT District Attorney Sullivan argued
entthe act OF 1890, amending that of 1874, made
q hese statutes applicable to seamen who sign
t6otfact to ship In the coastwise trade as well
% foreign trade; that these men had signed
Htontact to ship for the round trip from San
lAncisw % Puget sound ports and return, and
11k the information on which their arrest was
- does not state that the contract was made
&ogea shipping commissioner, the law en-
psaB masters OF vessels to act as shipping mas
- andafticles signed before him are binding
y. Lewis insisted that there was nothing to
nv that this contract had been signed before
ohipfing commissioner, and these men should
nssi have been sent to Jail, and they could only
eheM under the law until the ship was ready

sudn Hanford, after examining the law on

na !nese men cannot be held as deserters I'M

Our Christmas trade was
phenomenal. Never expected
anything like it. Naturally it
is most satisfactory to us.
All the Christmas goods that
remain unsold must 90 this
week.
We offer you them at great
est reductions. This gives you
a chance to secure many very
useful and handsome articles at
a nominal figure.
We are already hard at work
stock-taking. 1t will take us
at least couple of weeks to
take a complete inventory Of
our immense stock. As soon
as we are through, we will pre-
pare for our regular semi-annual
clearance. This will probably
be started about January 10th,
perhaps sooner.
From what we can illdoe
now, this sale will exceed all of
our previous ones. You know
what that means.
This week particularly, as
you are through with all the
worry of the Christmas holi-
days, we want to call your at
tention to our new stock of the
celebrated B. Priestley & Co. s
black dress fabrics. 1t takes
time to fully learn all the good
qualities of these fabrics. Like
all good, honest things, these
Priestley fabrics grow stronger
in your favor the longer that
you know them. You have
first the assurance of an un-
varying standard of quality.
Then comes the satisfaction
that always associates with good
things. The Priestley fabrics
are not cheap goods in point of
price. That is, you cannot buy
them down in the cent mark
ings. 1t costs money to make
good fabrics, and you are will
ing to pay a fair price for them.
The money is in the goods,
every cent of it. It's returned
you in actual service. Don't
get the idea, however, that
these are fancy priced fabrics,
for they are not. They run
along according to weave and
width, ST., $I.25 $I.5o, $I.75,
So and upwards per yard.
In the new stock of these
fabrics you will find a great
variety of the latest and most
fashionable weaves. Particu-
larly among these look at the
satin border Henriettas, the
camel hair Cheviots and Toules,
the Scotch Cheviots, the dag
onal Corkscrews, the shaded
stripes, the Merino Guipures,
the Alys, the Drap d'Almas,
the Satin Reys, the Waterproof
Serges, etc.
There is a feature about
these Waterproof Serges that
make them particularly desir-
able. While being positively
waterproof, these goods have
the same appearance and make
up just the same as an ordinary
serge. 1t is impossible to soak
them through with water, in
fact they will hold water as well
as a pail or tub. You will find
many bargains in the dress
goods department in all sorts
of dress stuffs.

BABY A SOL ID SCAB.
TOrIuring Disease of Blood and
Skin. Many Doctors Fail.
Cured by the Cuticura
Remedies

I have q sister troubled with blood or skip
disease. 1t commenced when about one
year old. We would try one doctor and then
another, and il seemed like they were glad TO
get rid of it When they would com
mence, they would say it is easy dried up and
cured, but at last they would say 1t could not
be cured. II ran on about two years. We
had tried all the doctors around and they
had failed. ] saw your advertisement in the
paper, and wrote you for directions and you
sent me copy of your book at once. We
then got CUTICURA REMEDIES and used it. It
dried I'D the sores and healed them up right
away. Her face head and parts of her
body were q solid scab The way
it would commence il would raise a small
lump under the skin, then become a small
pimple and itched so that she got no rest
night or day, and she would scratch them,
and yellow matter would come out Of them,
and they would keep spreading and itching,
l am sure. from what l know of the CUTI-
cERA REMEDIES, they are the best remedies
for scrofula or blood or SKIN diseases that
any one can use. GEORGE 6. CARTON,
High Point, Decator Co., Iowa.
