SHE WANTS TO Be SINGLE.
Mrs. Bowers Troubles With
Her Fractions Spouse.
She Declares That he Is @ Furniture
Wrecker and That She Il Very
Tired Of Him.

All is not serene, by any means, in the
Bower household. on Edin burgh street.
The wife has a sorry tale to tell Of her
spouse's cruel treatment. and as she en-
dure6 all she could the result Is that she
commenced divorce proceedings yesterday.
1t was back in 1879 that Alexander Bow
married the woman who now seeks release
from the irksome bonds.
A wear after their marriage Bower began
making a feature of cruelty in ruling his
household. AS the years went by Bower
became more fractions. and he commenced
In wreck the furniture and smash Dishes
When Mrs. Bower retired at night, during
the absence of her liege lord, he usually
appraised her of his return by his uproarious
condition.
On several occasions he awakened her
from her SAUNDERS by beating reyelile on
her face and chest with bis fists.
When she protested he dragged her out OF
bed and amused himself by playing football
with her.
Then while Mrs. Bower was peacefully
slumbering her playful spouse Jumped on
the bed end smashed IL to such an extent
that Ii was beyond repair
Mrs. Bower also claims that her spouse
threatened her life and IL she had not fled
he would have undoubtedly put his thre ats
into execution. As it was he endeayored
to strangle her and performed other up-
seenlly antics that made her think matri-
mony is not great success.
The warning pair have a homestead which
Mrs. Bower. through her attorney George
Bahrs, asks to have declared her separate
domicile.

THE STOCK MARKET.

The market opened dull and heavy yesterday and
broke disastrousy as the day advanced. Large lots
OF marginal stock were thrown upon the market
with demoralizing effect, with the result that prices
were forced back to pretty near where they started
from. The ouly news received during the day was
he Official reports from several Of the Gold Hill
mines. That OF the Becher shows that when they
are not cut of by water they are In porphyry and
streaks OF low grade quartz OF no intrinsic value
This sh owing on its face would not warrant higher
prices, but IL is moro than likely that little re-
action Will set In after such sharp break.

Nevns' Office is no exception. Nor Is his
towel an exception. 1t stands alone in the
corner and Is older than his Oldest press.
That Miss Burke makes no complaint at
the antiqueness of that towel, but quietly
dries her hands on some scrap paper, proves
at once her foreman's claim to Miss Burke
occurrences and modesty.
Miss Burke is a ''clean distributor"
That's a point you probably know moth
ing about, If you're not printer. But it's
a most important one. After the type has
been ''set" it must be thrown in" again, or
distributed into the respective boxes OF the
case.
Here's where most of the fast printers
fail. They distribute fast, sometimes with
great speed. but usually with more or less
inaccuracy. Carelessly they get an 9 into
the box, a into the box. and so on and
so forth. ALI of which is likely to show up
in the proof.
Now, Miss Burke is ''clean" distributor.
Without sacrificing speed. she throws in
her case" carefully and accurately. That's
one secret of her speed and accuracy in
composition. Therefore, no wrong letters
In her type boxes and consequently none
show up in the proof.
LIZ there's better lady compositor In the
city The CALL would like to know 1t. The
printers say there is none.

Brief Sketch OF Useful and Honorable
Career.
The position Of Surveyor of large city
and county is one of great responsibility,
and can only be satisfactorily filled by
man who is thorough civil engineer and
one who possesses all the requirements OF a
good citizen, and who has the Interests OF
the taxpayers at heart. In fact, he should
be taxpayer himself to properly appre-
ciate the relations existing between the
official Surveyor and the people.
The Republican party has been fortunate
in finding such man in the person OF
Charles S. Tilton, the present incumbent OF
the Office of City aud County Surveyor. who
is now before the people for reelection.
Mr.. Tiltou is not stranger IN this COM
munity, for he has lived here all his lie,
and has occupied the Office of Surveyor for
two terms, at different times, to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned. He was born
In Lowell, Mass, on August ]. 1886, and
when years Of age came to this city, ar
irving here i'll 1852. he has been in this
city ever since. and all who know him are
proud of his acquaintance. Mr.. Iilton was
educated In the public schools OF San Fran

WASHINGTON, May 26.-In response to
the call issued May %, 1892, by the Ma
tional Silver Committee for national
convention of "all who earnestly favor
the immediate restoration of free bime-
tallic coinage in the United States" two
hundred delegates assembled at noon
and were called to order by General A.
J. Warner, Chairman of the National
Committee.
General Warner stated the objects
sought to be obtained by calling together
the silver men of the country.
NJ. NJ. Parker, President Of the Wash
ington Board of Trade, delivered the adj
dress of welcome.
ON motion of S. Clark Wheeler of Colo
RADIO, Judge Isaac B. Morris of Indiana
was elected temporary Chairman. He
spoke at some length. The only proper
question for the United States to agree
to consider in the International None
tary Conference, the speaker thought,
was the question of the worlds legal
ratio.
Organization and Order of Business were
chosen and a recess was taken.
General A. j. Warner of Ohio was
elected permanent Chairman.
Addresses were made by Messrs. Nc
Ginnis of Montana, Bryan of Nebraska,
Bartine of Nevada, and Senator Stewart.
The latter made known the fact that the
Senate had just agreed to take up and
discuss plain free silver bill, ''andi'
said he, 1--WE will press it to vote. We
will see who are our friends and who are
our enemies, and if we can, will send it
to the President and compel him to Sig
nlfy to the people of the country whether
he is in sympathy with the gold trust or
willing to sign bill for the emancipa-
ton OF the American people," Stewart
opposed the proposed international con-
ference.
Recess.
Pelhng rain had an appreciable effect
on the attendance at the evening session.
Among those present were Senator Col

How Dust Cots In.

When the air around us becomes con-
densed-shrinks into a smaller volume
IL becomes heavier, puts greater pressure
on the surface of the mercury, and makes
it ascend in the tube; then the mercury
is said to rise. When the air expands
swells into a larger yolume-it becomes
lighter, the pressure on the mercury is
less, the mercury sinks in the tube, and
the barometer is said to fall Therefore.
every change of hight of the quicksilver
which we observe is a sign and measure
of change in the volume of air around
us. Further, this change in volume tells
no less upon the air inside our cases and
cupboards. When the barometer falls,
the air around expands into larger vol
ume, and the air inside the cupboard also
expands and forces itself out at every
minute crevice. When the barometer
rises again, the air inside the cupboard,
as well as outside, condenses and shrinks.
and air is forced back into the cupboard
TO equalize the pressure; and, along with
the air, in goes the dust. The smaller
the crevice, the stronger the jet of air, the
farther goes the dirt. Witness the dirt
tracks SO often seen in imperfectly framed
engravings or photographs. Remember.
ladies and gentlemen, whenever you see
the barometer rising, that an additional
charge of dust is entering your cupboards
and drawers.-T. Prdgin Teale in the
Popular Science Monthly.

offered by Loud of California is pending.
This substitute appropriates Sl60,00O to
prevent the unlawful entry of Chinese
now in the United States, and for the ex-
penseS OF returning to China all the
Chinese persons found unlawfully in the
United States.
Bowers of California said the Demo-
cratic party could not deceive the people
OF the Pacific Coast by passing stringent
Exclusion Act and then refuse to appro-
PIRATE money to carry it into effect. This
action would show the people that, al
though the Democrats were in favor of a
stringent law, they were opposed to it's
enforcement.
Holman of Indiana, in opposing the
substitute, stated the estimates for this
service were only 500, 900.
henderson of Iowa reminded the gem
tleman that the sundry civil bill was re-
ported to the House May I'd, and the
stringent, double -barreled exclusion bill
was passed three days afterward, and that
was the reason the appropriations for car
rying the Act into effect were not included
i'll the estimates.
Geary said when the Chinese bill passed
the House many Republicans found it
convenient to be absent. They could not
fool the people of California as to the po-
sltlon OF their party by their getting up
ana pretending desire for large appro-
priations.
LIQUIDS substitute was rejected, and on
motion OF Holman the appropriation was
increased to 500, 900.
On motion of Martin of Indiana an ap-
preparation of$5,000 was made for com
mlssary quarterrt the Marion Soldiers
An amendment by Sayres led up to q
discussion of the political methods OF
John L. Davenport in the New York City
elections. He was attacked by some
Democrats and defended by Republicans.
Without action the committee rose and
the House adjourned.
