Consequently Was Properly Estopped
from Claiming Title

San Francisco, Feb. 25.-The U. s.
circuit court Of appeals today decided
against Josephine Hatch, an Indian
woman in her contested suit against
the Everett Land Co. of Washington.
Mrs. Hatch contended that she was
induced by Misrepresentation of e. C.
Ferguson, her husbands executor. to
part with 24O acres Of land; that she
signed power Of attorney under the
belief that it was bond of friendship.
The land was conveyed by Ferguson
ITO Henry Hewitt and by him to the
Everett Land Co. The court held that
the company was an innocent purchaser
and that the woman, having accepted
the purchase money and used it long
OTTER her contention that she had been
defrauded, was estopped from claim
ing title as against the Everett Land
Co. The land is now very valuable.

Secretary Gresham and Sir Julian
Paunceforte to be due under the
award of the Paris arbitration tri-

The selection of Mr. Mcbride to carry
out this trust is selection that will
bring about the greatest good for the
party of the state. 1T will serve
as but few selections could have done
under the aggravated circumstances.
70 say that it is a choice that meets
with the approval of the general public
is a mild statement of the truth which
the grand demonstration upon the
adoption by the "thirty" of Lis nomina-
ton 50 earnestly, firmly impressed.
That the senator elect is in close
touch with the people and that he is
their friend and that they are his was
| more clearly demonstrated by their ac-
tions last night when he appeared be-
fore them ON the platform than words
can tell. q ~
The cheers that were sent up for
George w. Mcbride were from the
heart. The people who know him not
only respect and honor him-they love
| him.
The hall of representatives. the corri-
dors, the galleries and every other con-
| venient space in the state house was
never so crowded with humanity as it
was last night from Z o'clock to mid
| night. Public excitement had been
aroused to such a pitch that persons
remained ait the hall all the afternoon
| and evening, accompanied by their lun-
| ches so as to secure favorable posi-
| tionS and seats. Long before the joint
| convention assembled every seat, chair,
desk, railing, window seat and platform
step, was occupied, while standing
room was packed like sardine box.
| So soon as the balloting began the
greatest possible anxiety was aroused.
| Arrangements had been made for trans
| nitting bulletins to the secretary of
| states office and thence to the masses
in the outer corridors and upon receipt
| of each succeeding result the noise of
| the public discussion of it's merits could
be heard Within the house. On the
| first ballot the Do1ph forces We're great
| ly cheered by the return to their ranks
of Smith of Clackamas and Gowan who
had left them temporarily at the after
noon session, and then t. general be-
lief was that the die was cast and there
would be no election. Through all the
weary round of twenty-five ballots the
crowd remained, the monotony being
relieved at intervals by the "change of
horse" at each 'srelay" Of the anti
Dolph republicans. They led out for
the evenings race with Williams, but
dropped him early for Judge J. B. Wal
do, Of Marion, who they left after
two ballots for the younger and
more vigorous steed Fulton, to whom
| they attached th emselves for ten laps,
but were compelled to drop him. The
only accession of note to the Fulton
standard was Senator Browne]l of
Clackamas, who broke from Dolph on
the fifth ballot of the evening-the for
ty-frst of the total. The next man Sc
lected was Tongue. but Mr. BrowneH
shifted to George W. Mcbride, as did
Senator Hobson on the next, and after
five ballots without gain the antis took
up Governor Lord and two ballots were
had as the clock pointed half an hour

TO use his own word 81 rapidly
lost flesh, was 1 stone lighter, and
could hardly walk about. Once
my parents thought | was dying,
and sent in haste for the doctor. l
saw two doctors in Epworth and
one at Haxey, but they were not
able to help me. Our vicar, Rev.
Mr.. Overton, recommended me to
the Lincoln Infrmary, where l at
tended for eight weeks as an out
door patient, without benefit.
"Soon afterwards Mr.. Sharp, a
chemist, at Epworth, spoke to me
of the virtues of a medicine known
as Mother Siegel's Curative Syrup.
Being interested in what he said, /
left off trying other things and be-
gan taking this Syrup. In a few
days l felt better, and presently l
gained seven pounds in a week.
At that rate / soon got back to my
work, and have had the best Of
health ever since. / tell these facts
to everybody, and am perfectly
willing they should be published.
Yours truly (Signed), TON CROSBY,
Ferry Road, Epworth, via Dom
caster, December 23rd, 1892"
After reading Mr.. Crosby's story
we scarcely need to ask why he lost
flesh. The minute he stopped eat
ing and digesting his usual allow
ance Of food he began to fall away.
Trees, they say, grow as much from
the air by means of their leaves, as
they do from the soil. But men
don't. They've got to be built up
through their stomachs. Indiges-
ton and dypepsia (Mr. Crosby's
complaint) stops this process and
poisons those who have it, besides.
That accounts for all the painful
and dangerous symptoms our friend
speaks Of. The doctors do what
they can, but, unluckily, they don't
possess the medicine that goes to
the bottom of this disease and cures
it. The remedy is Mother Seigel's
Curative Syrup, and nothing else,
so far as we know. 1t restores
digestion, and digestion covers the
bones with fat enough for health
and good looks.

Travellers tell us that when the os-
trich is pursued it hides its head in
the sand, the silly bird appearing to
think that if it cannot see its pursuers
they cannot see it.
Equally absurd are those medical adj
visers who prescribe for the symptoms
and not the source of disease. Of
tentimes they do this because the
patient desires it, unwisely demanding
that eruptions or other skin troubles
be effaced at once. To do this it is
necessary to use poisonous applica-
tons, which must sooner or later ag-
gravate the disease or cause it to APP
pear in new and more dangerous form,
There is scarcely single i'll to which
flesh is heir but what has its origin in
impure blood. Therefore, the only
way to cure these troubles is through

CIETY.
Some Facts from the .Trea-
surer's Annual Statement.

surer's Annual Statement.
The annual statement of James
A. Kennedy, treasurer of the Bril-
fish Benevolent Society, shows that
on May oath a year ago, it had
only a balance of $50.35 on hand.
To-day it has a balance Of $33S.97,
partly owing to the generous dona-
ton of $500 by Mrs. VIM. G. Irwin
last Christmas. During the year
the society has expended in weekly
relief to distressed Britons various
sums ranging from $12 to $10S.75
per month, the whole aggregating
$71S.75.
The total receipts of the year have
been $1650.70, out of which the
treasurer has been enabled to pur-
chase one $500 Hawaiian bond be-
sides carrying in hand the balance
above mentioned. The report shows
the society to be in a flourishing
condition and an examination of
the items contained therein would
indicate that it is doing much more
good than most people imagine.

Seven Pounds in One Week

Not every man who is thin would
thank you for fattening him. He
doesn't want to be fat and for every
good reasons. Unnecessary fat is a
load to carry about; it interferes
with mans power to work, short
ems his wind, and dulls his wits.
Yet, on the other hand, a certain
amount of flesh is needed for health
and comfort. For example; A
man five feet high should weigh
about 120lbs.; and man five feet
six inches, 145lbs.; a man six feet,
178 lbs. 1t is regular ascending
scale. The insurance companies
allow variation Of 7 percent above
or below it, and beyond those limits
charge an extra premium. One
shouldn't be much over or under
his proper weight if he wants to be
sound and hearty-and we all do
want that.
Now we will tell you how Mr..
Thomas Crosby, being under weight,
gained seven pounds in a week. He
had lost II, stone, which is too
much off for a man who was never
fleshier than he naturally ought to
be.
1t was this way. He was right
enough up to May, 1891. At that
time he began to feel i'll and out of
sorts. He had a nasty taste in his
mouth-like rotten eggs, he says
and a thick, Shiny stuff came on
his gums and teeth. His appetite
failed, and what he did eat was, as
you might say under compulsion
and right afterwards he would have
great pain in his stomach and
chest. Plainly, something was amiss
with him in that region. He was
often dizzy, and cold chills ran
over him as though he were threat
ened with fever. Of course we
should expect a man who is handled
in this way to lose strength. Mr.,
Crosby lost strength. In fact, he
he got so weak and nervous that he
shook all over, and his hands trem-
bled as if current Of electricity
were running through him.

QUEEN VICTORIA.
Her Honolulu Subjects CeIe-
brate Her Birthday.

If Queen Victoria herself had
been in Honolulu yesterday she
could hardly have complained of
the way in which her birthday was
celebrated. The numerous flags
floating in the morning breeze bore
early testimony to the fact that
even in the Sandwich Islands peo-
pie were aware that yesterday was
the birthday of the Queen of Eng
land and Empress of all the Indies.
In the afternoon large number
of citizens called on the British
Commissioner and paid their re-
spects. Prominent among them
were President Dole and his minis
tiers, Minister Willis, members of
the consular corps and many of the
officers of the Philadelphia. The
grounds of Commissioner Hawes'
residence were beautifully decorat-
ed with flags and bunting, and a
special pavilion erected for the
accommodation of distinguished
guests. Refreshments of all kinds
were dispensed with that lavish
hospitality for which Mr.. Halves is
becoming famous.
In the evening the dance given
by the Scottish Thistle Club and
the Sons of st. George in aid of the
British Benevolent Society drew
out large crowd to Independence
park. The large pavilion was APP
propriately decorated in honor Of
the occasion. Commissioner Halves
appeared on the scene towards the
end of the last dance in the first
half of the program and dancing
immeditely stopped, and the band
struck up the well-remembered
tones of God Save the Queen
Mr.. Halves repeatedly bowed his
Acknowledgements and the dancing
continued.
During the intermission, while
refreshments were being dispensed
with, meeting of the British Be
novolent Society was held, at which
the following officers were elected
to serve for the ensuing year
President, Hon. A. G. S. Halves
vice-president, Rev. A. Macintosh
treasurer, J. A. Kennedy; secre
tary, r. Cation. The relief com
mittee is composed W. Roe, J
Lucas, T. May, w. Monsarrat, J
NJ. Dowsett and T. r. Lucas.
The dance broke up at a lat
hour and everyone went home wit
the impression that all the arrange
ments made for their pleasure an,
comfort during the evening reflect
ed great credit on the committe
who had charge of them.
