At nearly all of the leading hotels are one
or more people from Eastern points who
have travelled here for the express purpose
of being freed from their rheumatism, while
at the same time enjoying the delightful ad-
vantages of California's superb winter eli
mate. At a downtown hotel reporter met
Yesterday one OF these visitors in the person
Judge Merrill of South Dakota, who is here
to rid himself of disagreeable com anton
"a case of sciatic rheumatism of thirteen
years standing. The distinguished expo

his mission to this coast. but, on the other
hand, frankly stated that he had confidence
