WHAT 1T REALLY is.
The Most Dangerous of Modern DisOr-
ders Clearly Defined-Pneumonia and
What Causes 1t.

The Most Dangerous of Modern DisOr-
ders Clearly Defined-Pneumonia and
What Causes 1t.
There has been a great mistake as to what
pneumonia really is. People, and even some ply
sicians have called it dangerous disease. Pneu-
monia is always an after effect II the system is
down, weakened, debilitated, II the life is at
low ebb the lungs may fill up and the person die
suddenly, and 1t is called pneumonia No man or
woman ever died Of pneumonia when the body was
strong vigorous and healthy. II comes upon one
when weakened by grip, by severe cold over
work and generally weakened condition. Such
being the case how this dreadful trouble known
as pneumonia be prevented or warded OFF? Mani
testify. by strengthening and Certifying the body by
having the health and strength SO secure that
pneumonia will not attack. or il 1t should,
easily be warded off. This can be done by careful
living, careful diet and moderate of a pure
stmulant To gently assist nature a stimulant is
required, something that adds to the life and
visor. Nothing for this purpose can equal pure
whiskey, and IL should be borne in mind that the
only pure and medicinal whiskey which has re-
ceived the unqualified endorsement of physicians
and scientists is Duffy Pure Malt. 1t is no ordi-
nary whiskey. but possesses properties known to
no other article. 1t will eifectuaiy ward off pneu-
mona and has saved the lives OF thousands of
people. 1t should be remembered however, that II
is the only whiskey which can accomplish this
and any druggist or grocer who seeks to convince
you TO the contrary is deceiving Insist upon hay
ing Duffy's Pure Malt.

signed a request to the mayor to send in another
name than that of J. NJ. Carson for city comp
troller. They are DR.. Eugene Jordan, Lsander
Miller, T. N. Daulton, J. F. Brewer and Thomas
Garlic. The nomination Of Carson has now
been lying for ten days without action. The
charter places no limit upon the time within
which the aldermen shall act upon q nomina-
ton, but in section of article V. it is pro-
vided:
If the board OF aldermen shall refuse to con-
firm any nomination of the mayor, then he
shall, within ten days thereafter, nominate an
other person to fill the office, and he may con-
tinue to nominate until his nominee Is con-
frmed. If the mayor fails to make another
. nomination within ten days from the rejection
OF a nomination for the same office, then the
board of aldermen shall elect a suitable person
to fill the Office during the term.
The board has not refused to confirm Carson
but the five aldermen are at present pledged not
to vote for him. Several of those opposing him
have no other candidate and are content to let
Ferris remain at least until the bond matter is
entirely settled.
Mr.. Carson was notified of the action of the
aldermen and offered an opportunity to with

held before Justice Won Tobel yesterday after
noon, and resulted in the accused being COM

accused of the theft, Sam Lee said that he had
pawned a revolver but no pin, but, when
pressed, admitted that he found the pin. He
said that it was lying in the hall, and he sup
posed it belonged to one of tie many gentlemen
who visited the house. No one came for it, so

Largest Class In the State-Specia1 Ser
vices for Today,


St Marks Episcopal church was well filed
last night at the confirmation service conducted
by Bishop Paddock. The bishop delivered a
short but interesting sermon, taking for his
text, Mark xxiii:26: "On Him they laid the
cross that He might bear it after Jesus"
The bishop confirmed q class of thirty-three
in all. OF these all but two were adults four
teen of them being men. This, Rev. d. c..
Garrett said, was something unusual 1t was
the largest class confirmed in the state
this year, and last years class was the largest
ever confirmed in the state. st. Marks church
has, therefore, taken the first rank in this respect
for two years in succession, as the result of Mr..
CARROTS Lenten work. An offering was taken
for the benefit of mission work in the state.
A three-hours service will be held this after
noon, beginning at II o'clock. Seven short ad
dresses will be delivered on the seven last say
ings of Christ Service will ALSO be held at 80
O'Clock this evening

PREMIUM ON SCHOOL WARRANTS.
Bid of One Per Cent. Already In-Sav-
ing to Taxpayers.

The board of education has hitherto paid the
salaries of school teachers and other employees
in warrants. but will henceforth pay them in
cash, and adopt the system of selling the
monthly warrants in big Jumps for the highest
premium that can be had for the same. Owing
to the fact that King county will hereafter be
run on cash basis, warrants bearing 10 per
cent interest have become very scarce and
there is a general demand for the school war
rants
As soon as it was known that the board de-
sired TO make change, bid was put in for
next months warrants at a premium of / per
cent Even per cent. means a clear saving to
the taxpayers of the school district OF about
$50. Director Spencer and Secretary Whitney
said yesterday that the district might as well
have that as the bankers and money lenders

The Plan for Grading the Firemen.

While favorably inclined towards the plan to
be submitted TO the city council by the board OF
fire commissioners for grading the men en-
moved in the fire department of the city, Chief
kellogg thinks that SIS is too small sum per
month for the class of men who ought 10 be in
the department The chief thinks that the
plan as outlined by the commissioners would
reduce the expense for salaries about 500 per
month and would increase the saving later on
when the system gets into good working order

ranidly promote good men will act as a great
