Swinging Around the Circle

OF the diseases to which it is adapted
with the best results, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. a family medicine, comprehen-
sive in its scope, has never been thrust
upon public attention in the guise of
universal panacea for bodily ills. This
claim, daily arrogated in the columns of
the daily press by the proprietors of
medicines far inferior to it as specifics,
has in thousand instances Disguised the
public in advance by its absurdity, and
the prospects of other remedies of SUI
perior qualities have been handicapped
by the pretensions of their worthless pre-
decessors. But the American people know,
because they have verified the fact by the
most trying tests, that the bitters possesses
the virtues of real specific in cases of
malarial and liver disorder, constipation,
nervous, rheumatic, stomach and kidney
trouble. What it does it does thoroughly,
and mainly for this reason it is Endorsed
and recommended by hosts of respecta-
BILE medical men.

Another Justice of the Ponce.

Assembly Bill No. 81, introduced by
Assemblyman Anderson, provides for
the election of another City Justice of the
Peace in Sacramento. Two years ago the
law was amended so as to allow only one
Justice of the Peace for cities of the class
in which Sacramento is. Since then we
have adopted a new charter and under it
the Justice of the Peace becomes Police
Judge. which leaves the city without any
City Justice. 1t is therefore claimed that
it is necessary TO reinstate the law as it
was prior TO 1891.

and much to the annoyance of the river
people buried on the levee. Buffalo Bill
was weli-known character along the
Sacramento, having hunted and fished for

He had partner who was drowned
about year ago. and whose remains are
buried on the Tyler Island levee. The
body of the unfortunate Bill was pulled
up by a dredger, the jaws of which caught
him by the neck.
The workmen threw the remains up on
the land near San Andreas landing, where
they lay for twenty-four hours. Then
Coroner Smith of Isleton held an inquest
and ordered the body to be buried in the
sand, and little cross marks the lonely
grave. The friends of the dead hunter

Use for Old Lemons.

Never throw away old pieces of lemons
after they have been squeezed with the
lemon squeezer. They will come in handy
for removing the stains from the hands
and other articles. Dipped in salt they
will scour copper kettles nicely and re-
move stains from brass work. They will
take stains and dirt and odor from
pans and kettles as nothing else will. The
odor of fish aud onions can thus be re-
moved easily.

DRIVEN OUT BY A DRENCHING.

How Women and Children Who Sought a
Place to See the Circus Parade Were Dis
persed.
The sudden application Of cold water to the
human frame, while temporarily chilling, gen.
orally results in increased warmth. It WAS SO
days ago the warmth has not diminished in the
least. There was circus parade on Monday
and in accordance with time-honored custom
thousands Of men, women and children lined
the sidewalks to see the tinseed aggregation move
by. Some Of these people were on North
Capitol street between and NJ streets and
many were directly in front Of the Lucy Webb
Hayes Home for Deaconesses. Just before the
procession started the police cleared the streets
and in the crush several persons, some Of them
women with infants in their arms
were forced back through the gate
way Of the home and up the steps
leading to the home. Then a man connected
with the institution appeared and ordered the
trespassers to get off the steps and into the
highway. Nobody went. because a forward
movement was impossible while the police held
the crowd back tight to the sidewalk and the
fences. Then the man took up a Potomac laden
garden hose and turned the stream on his unwill-
ing guests That he was not thrashed is said to be
due to the fact that the invaders we're women
and children. but as soon as the story became
known in the homes of those who were soaked
there were threats that may yet develop. 1t is
at least probable that Q warrant will be sworn
out charging the impatient offender with using
the sprinkler at u time Of day when the use OF
spripklers is illegal
