SISTERS Death Incidental
Boston, Nov. 1.-THE police have evolved
a theory in explanation of the murder OF
Mrs. Toole and her daughter who have died
from drinking poisoned porter on wednesday
night. They think that one of the two sons
under arrest, if not both, deliberately MUIR
dered his mother, to whom the father had
recently willed all of his property, knowing
that The fathers death was only a question
of a few days at the most, and that with
both parents out of the way the properly
would be divided among tho children, mo
death of the sister, Margaret, the police
think, was not planned. Her presence IN
her mothers room at the time she opened
the bottle of poisoned liquor was accidental
and her death was merely incidental OF the
carrying out of the supposed plot.

An Honest Tribute to Pre-Em-

Dispensary for Ladies and
Gentlemen at No. 1928 North
Main Street.

The ordinary newspaper affords the
public no protection from medical
frauds, and the sufferer who needs
real merit and skill must seek for it
elsewhere. One reason is that every
impostor who pays his price has ready
access to their advertising columns and
shares equally with highest skill the
other is that the non-advertising quack
ia catered to although the paper re-
ceives no patronage from his hands.
This latter class, who swear by code
now moss.groHn and obsolete, declare
advertising a crime, but by bribery of
reporters ana other questionable meth
DDS seek notoriety in every way. With
this state OF circumstances existing,
the daily press affords no satisfactory
indication OF the abiding place of real
merit. Only the newspaper which ca
ters neither to the namby-pambyism of
the ethical frauds nor the glittering
dollar of tie advertising quack is
competent to chow the reader where
real worth and highest ability is obtain
able. Take for instance the case of DR..
P. NJ. White, specialist Of super
eminent ability, who has during the
past years effected hundreds of won
derful cures in Los Angeles and vicinity.

by the newspaper that even indirectly

An Indian Treasury Looted.

A grave scandal has come to light at
Indore. Treasure which has long been
supposed to be guarded in the Khasgi
treasury, amounting to 900, 900 rupees,
is missing. Her late highness Ma Saheb
told the maharajah that she had pre-
sented few of the gold ornaments
from the Jawahir Khana to some of her
servants, and that the younger Ma Sa-
hebs-the stepmothers of his highness-
knew all about the jewelry and silver
articles and cash in the treasury, and
that he would get all information re-
specting them from the younger prin-
cesses. But no one of them has been
able to furnish any explanation respect
ing the missing sum of rupees, or the
jewels, ornaments and silver articles
which were with them. On this ac-
count the allowances of the maharajah's s
stepmothers have been partially with
held while the mystery is under inquiry.

MRS. FISHERS EXPERIENCE.
The Noted Huntress Had Thrilling En-
counter With a Panther.

inc Noted Huntress Had Thrilling En-
counter With Panther.
Mrs. Amelia Fisher of Anderson val
ley, this county, suffered an experience
during hunting trip which almost re-
suited seriously. While out alone she
encountered panther, and though she
succeeded in killing it the reaction from
the nervous strain was SO great that
Immediately after firing the shot fatal
to the brute she fell partly unconscious
and lay in that condition through two
nights and day.
Mrs. Fisher is a noted huntress. Her
success in the chase has been phenome-
nal. She is remarkably adept in the
use of the rifle, and the family larder is
kept constantly supplied with tho fruits
of her skill. She takes frequent trips
into the forest and is familiar with all
the trails in the vicinity of her home.
On a recent Monday she took her rifle
and struck out across the range. The
day passed, but as she failed to return
at nightfall the family became alarmed.
While they were accustomed To her
excursions into the woods, it was the
first time that she had failed to return
in proper season. Her husband secured
the assistance of a aneighbor, and togeth-
er they proceeded in the direction the
lady had taken early in the day.
The party searched the woods for
miles around, firing off guns and in ev-
cry manner endeavoring to attract the
attention of the lost wife. They return
ed home after an exhausting and unsuc-
cessful night in the forest. The wife
had not returned.
Wednesday the lady was found in
low swale about seven miles from her
home. She was in an exhausted condi-
ton, bruised and torn by the under
growth and faint from her long expo
sure.
She was reclining on the damp earth
when found. Near her lay her rife,
and few feet away were the remains
of deer and the body of an enormous
panther.
According to her story, she hunted
until late in the afternoon of Monday
with poor success. Game was scarce
as well as wild. AS she was about to
turn homeward fine buck came in
sight She fired at the animal and gave
him death wound He disappeared
through the underground, leaving trail
of blood behind.
The huntress followed, satisfied that
the buck would shortly succumb to the
fatal bullet. The trail of the wounded
deer led the huntress through rough
and broken country. Emerging from
the underground, Mrs. Fisher descended
into dark canyon fringed with tall
redwoods and full of giant ferns.
In small opening she saw what
startled her and what was sufficient to
have shaken the nerves of one of the
boldest mountaineers. There in the CEN
ter of the opening lay the buck, and
feasting upon his remains was pam
ther. Recovering from her momentary
fright, the huntress advanced boldly
into the opening. When within hun
dred feet of the panther, the lady lev
eled her rifle and fired. The aim was
true and the result fatal.
The reaction, however, was disas-
trous. Her nerves, having been strained
to the highest tension, gave way and
from the moment of shooting the pam
ther until she was rescued the lady re-
manned in a semiconscious condition.

speak OF the wonderful success OF DIR.
White, lest the Aforesaid ethical pre-
tenders have their delicate feelings
hurt. Fortunately no code save that of
broad humanity, no rules save those Of
common brotherhood control the
expressions of a conscientious news
paper, and to its thousands OF readers it
makes the truth known as the light is
given it to see the truth. DR.. P. M.
White is well and favorably known
throughout the east, where he was the
first surgeon to remove tumors through
the use of cocaine. In 1882 DR.. White
was physician to the Ohio Charity
Asylum for the Insane. DIR. Whites
Dispensary at No. 12S North Main street
is fully equipped with the finest instru-
ments and appariti, as we'll as COM
plete stock OF medicines. One very
apprecisble feature of this dispensary
is that the cheap, and too often poi
sonous, patent medicines are not sold to
patients. DR.. White has reached the
very pinnacle of his profession. He
does not pretend to cure all the ills to
which the flesh OF man is heir. His
specialties are private. chronic, nervous
and skin diseases. The fact that during
his useful career he has successfully

diseases, none OF the testimonials of
which ne has published, but which he
can show to any sick person, amply
demonstrates his right to be regarded az
head and shoulders above the specialists
of his class in this country. Getting
both advice and drugs at DR.. Whites
Dispensary obviates the danger of ex-
posure of private complaint, which
often happens by taking prescription to
a drug store. Nobody with delicate dis
ease is going to allow his name to be pub.
liehed in a newspaper, and it is we'll
known fact that the testimonials pub
lished in San Francisco journals are
fakes. No such people ever existed.
DIR. Whites patients include leading
business men. lawyers, physicians, mer-
chants, farmers, etc., throughout South
ern California. 1t may be said unhesi-
tatingly that DIR. White leads the
profession. He is no pretender, but an
educated and cultivated professional, a
regular graduate, being three years in
college and hospitals, man of highest
attsinments. physician of the most
eminent ability, surgeon OF the most
pronounced skill. By closest study, in
teIligent experiment, careful scrutiny OF
all that is latest and best. he has at
tanned place wherein he has no rival.
He is deep reader, a profound thinker.
He keeps in touch with the progress OF
the profession by following it's literature,
and no medical publication Of any impor-
tance but what comes to his study table.
The public shodld beware of so-called
Medical Institutes, conducted by men
who for obvious reasons refuse to make
their names known to the public. A
