The majority Of well-read phys
icians now believe that Consump-
ton is a germ disease. In other
words, instead Of being in the con.
stitution itself il is caused by innu.
merable small creatures living in the
lungs having no business there and
eating them away as caterpillars do

coughed up is those
Disease. parts Of the lungs
which have been
gnawed OFF and destroyed. These
little bacilli, as the germs are called,
are too small to be seen with the
naked eye, but they are very much
alive just the same, and enter the
body in our food, in the air we
breathe, and through the pores Of
the skin, Thence they get into the
blood and finally arrive at the lungs
where they iasten and increase with
frightful rapidity, Then German
Syrup comes in, loosens them, kills
them, eXpells them, heals the places
they leave, and so nourish and
soothe that, in short time consump-
tives become germ.proof and well, .

ADJUSTMENTS

The Metropolitan Theater was packed
''from pit to dome' last night to see Sybil
Johpstone in ''The Clemanceau Case.n
The majority went away disappointed
because the piece was not as immodest as
they expected. The minority were there
through curiosity, or to judge coolly
whether this notorious play is, or is not,
one of the agencies that is dragging the
stage down into filth and mire eirrevocably.
The majority were present to crafty a
taste for the nude-it would be unfair TO
say the obscene, for that was not the
motive. 1t was an audience fairly repre-
sentative of citizenship as it goes, and it
was about one-third Sacramentan and
two-thirds San Franciscan. The gallery
was noisy, indecent in its suggestive

The gallery have rights, but it is their
duty also to refrain from vulgarity. The
gallery made the play worse than it was,
and interpreted into wantonness that in
itself inotfensive. The story of the "Cle-
menceau Case" is this: A scheming Rus
sian woman, exiled, plans to marry her
daughter to satisfy her own greed
for fine feathers. She does not hesi-
tate to instil into the girls mind
the love for finery and to teach her to get
it by any means. The girl marries an
artist, whom she really loves, but at the
same time becomes the mistress of an
other to satisfy her love for gold and dia-
monds. Between the two she leads a
dual life, is at last found out, and dies by
the hand of her husband at the very mo-
ment that she is asserting her love for
him, but refusing to abandon her para
mour. In one scene the wife poses for a
statue which her husband is modelling,
and it is this scene of ten seconds of
nudity in fieshings from neck to toe that
gives the piece its notoriety mainly. But
1t is purity itself compared to the gross
ness of the deceit, announced prostitu-

How the Recent Storm Affected the
Sacramento River.
The Sacramento River came down with

saw the river climb up the gauge at such
rapid rate.
Saturday evening it registered 8 feet 8

tinuous rush, commencing early yester-
