charge of passing counterfeit money.
His examination was set for next Thurs
day. Franceschi WAS arrested 10 days
ago by Detective Goodman. The fact
was kept secret 30 long in order that
his confederates might be captured.
The detective found that the city was
being flooded with counterfeit fve-cent
pieces. They traced the source of their
distribution to Franceschi's gang who
we're lodging in house on Buena Vista

Franceschi was arrested and locked up
federates, all of whom have escaped.
1t is almost certain that the bogus
coins were manufactured by the gang,
although no dies were found. Detective
Goodman has succeeded in finding some

have been used by the counterfeiters in
casting the coins.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.
