THROW PHYSIC TO THE Dogs"
Electromagnetic Influence and Its
Effects on the Human System.

As the world advances in age and the
people become more enlightened. the old
schools of medicine gradually give way to
modern science. The God-given powers of
ele tricity and magnetism supplant the
drastic drugs of the pharmacopopia. The
''nostrums Internal are only kept for
human gargoyles. Among the most
prominent professors of the new curative
age are Drs. Darrin. Wondrous TO relate,
they are especially successful in curing all
nervous, chronic and private diseases,
such as Loss of Manhood. Blood Taints,
Syphilis, elect, Gonorrhna, Structure,
Spermatorrhea, Seminal Weakness or loss
of desire of sexual power in man or
woman. All peculiar Female Troubles,
Leucorrhea. Displacement. etc.. with little
or no medicine. The certificates of cures
made by these celebrated physicians would
fill volume. They embrace every disease
to which humanity is exposed. The REM
edies are painless. almost pleasant and in
lallible. Drs Darrin are entitled to great
credit for their almost miraculous dis
coveries in the art of electromagnetic
healing. There is mo durable known
malady that they cannot conquer, and will
under no circumstance take case that
they cannot cure or benefit.
They have their offices in "The Nor
mandy" corner Third and James streets,
Seattle, Wash.
Office hours: 10 to daily; evenings, Z
to s; SUNDAYS. 10 to II. Consultation is

"THE SHADOWS" FIRST VICTORY.
He Whips San Franciscan in Ten
kounds-A Clever Fighter.


SAN Francisco, Aug. 31.-Billy Maber,
the Australian lightweight, better known
as 1.-THE Shadow" defeated local boxer
named Frank Kelly at the Occidental
Club tonight for purse of $3.50. Kelly
was game, but unscientiiic, and Maber
jabbed his left at will on Kelly's
nose and chm, drawing blood freely
from the nose. Kelly was groggy
and bleeding at the close of the
ninth, and the referee stopped the
fight, awarding it to Maber. This was
Maber's first fight In America, and much
interest attached to the exhibition. The
sympathies of the spectators evidently
were with Kelly, but it was conceded by
all that Maber was exceedingly clever
In the preliminary ten-round contest
Paddy German withdrew, having injured
his hand recently. Joe King. of San
Francisco, took his place, knocking out
his opponent, Jim Morrisey, also of San
Francisco, in four rounds.

caused much of the past extravaganza.
The general legislation secured III this
particular will compel economy IN many
directions. In addition to this [ esti-
mate that the annual expenses of the
city government ana the school board
have been reduced about 1926, 900.
Il do not know what the popular
idea is. ana therefore cannot say
whether the delegation has struck it,
or not. The minority of the delegation
has been earnestly in favor of municipal
reform. but has been repeatedly forced
to compromise with majority composed
of men lacking III the qualities that
would make them successful legislators,
namely. courage and independence.
The Willingness to follow after the pop
ular idea without regard to business
principles is the chief cause OF cOrrup-
ton and extravaganza in municipal
affairs everywhere.
Il am in favor of the dual council
provision and believe it will promote
economy and prevent jObbery.
The legislation has been in the right
direction, but it has not gone far
enough. The fee system should be
abolished. and the city and county gov
ernments consolidated. There is no
sense IN running Two sets of officers
Wnen Ine CITY covers nearly l1e WnoIe
county.
''The policy of the new council should
be to Iegislate for the best interests of
the city according TO business methods
and without reference TO politics. The
policy OF the school board should
be to promote the efficiency
of the schools. and make our
grammar schools more useful anu
less ornamental. They now eXpend
$40, 900 annually in teaching a smatter-
ing of German that is of no practical
use, and propose TO abolish domestic
economy, which costs only $500 per
year. and is an actual necessity to every
pupil. The present school board is un-
dOubtedly a good one. but the best re-
suits will be attained only when the in
fiuentiaI women OF our city are repre-
sented on the board here, as they are ia
progressive cities elsewhere.
''The policy of the park board should be
to discontinue the purchase or condem-
nation OF small and expensive tracts of
land in the center of population. and to
acquire large areas of cheap land near
the electric lines, which will provide
park or parks worthy of the name

Seven in the First Ward.

seven IN the FIRST " ara.
CHICAGO. April 1.-THE board OF
election commissioners met to-day for
the purpose OF taking up the canvass of
votes cast at the city election
Tuesday. The board first proceeded
to hear evidence IN the matter of the
alleged misconduct of Dennis Sheehan.
one OF the Judges of election in the
Nineteenth precinct of the Twentieth
ward. Sheehan is the man for whose
arrest bench warrant was issued yes
terday on complaint of the chairman
OF the Republican campaign commit
tee. 5. P. Harris. one Of the Repub-
Gcau judges, testified that after
the polls were closed an aItercation
arose as to who should count the tickets
to see whether they tailed in number of
votes cast, as shown by the register.
Sheehan demanded the key to the
ballot box. and it being refused him.
he took q hammer and broke the box.
At the same time the crowd out
side broke in the windows Harris
said he was informed that there was a
conspiracy TO destroy the ballots and
the poll books. In the confusion the
ballot box disappeared and was after
wadrs found In an inner room. Harris
then demanded that Sheehan be arrest
ed and it was done. Sheehan teSti-
fed that the whole trouble arose
from the fact that Harris wanted
10 run things TO suit himself and did
not propose TO allow the Democratic
Judges to have any voice in the matter.
He admitted that he broke the box with
hammer, but said that it was with no
intention of fraud. Mr.. Harris refused
to open the box with the key,
and he (Sheehan) opened 1t in
hn
the work OF counting the ballots might
proceed. The investigation was then
put over until the completion of the
canvass. In the meantime Sheehan
was taken over to Judge TutthilPs
court, and at the Suggestion of
the assistant states attorney. locked
up in Jail. When the board turned
its attention to canyassing the votes.

appeared before it and made an argu-
ment against the legal right Of City At

sit as such. on the ground that he was
a candidate at the late election and
was hostile to Mr.. Cregier. The
eleeti OH board completed the official
count OF the First ward and adjourned
until Monday. The count thus far re-
suited in loss of fourteen to Hempstead
