SORE MOUTH IN BABIES.
Simple Treatment of q Very Annoying
Aiment.

Simple Treatment of Very Annoying |
Ailment.
Young children are very liable to af-
fections of the mouth which, though |
not dangerous, invariably produce dis
comfort and fretfulness.
One of the commonesG causes of sore
mouth in babies is to be found in the
irritation of teething, though any local
irritant will cause the same trouble.
Another frequent cause is gastric dis
turbance, fact which is shown by the
acidity of the stomach and by the
character of the intestinal discharges.
The first indication which usually
appears in cases of inflammation of the
lining membranes of the mouth is rest
lessness on the part Of the infant, and
an indisposition to nurse.
On looking into the mouth we OBJ
serve that the gums and other parts
are redeemed and infiamed in certain
places, and here and there are white
specs like pimples If the inflammation
is not cared for and promptly subdued,
these pimples soon break down and be-
| come open sores.
The principal point in the treatment
| of sore mouth is to correct any general
or special cause upon which the local
trouble seems to be dependent The
bowels should be kept regulated, and
the acidity of the stomach controlled.
| If the distur bances of the stomach and
bowels are not very marked little
magnesia or limewater added to the
milk, or given separately, will prove
all that is required.
As a local remedy we may wash out
the mouth with mild preparation
like borax and water or solution of
alum and carbolic acid. There is no
special rule to be followed in preparing
washes for the mouth, except that they
shall be cleansing and non-irritating.
A very good way to treat sore mouth
is to swab out the mouth carefully
with warm water two or three times a
day, afterward putting on the tongue
pinch of powder made of equal parts
of powdered white sugar and borate OF
soda.
We should remember, however, in
treating this affection, that it rarely
comes of itself, but is almost always
significant of some more general dis
urbance.-Iouth's Companion.

This statement was made today
by Repu blican Of national promi-
nence who had just had talk

nominated by the Republicans as
compromise candidate" said the
speaker. THAT is the plan of his
friends. l do not know that Gen

TO REBUILD THE HOUSE.
MIR. IRWIN TO MIR. GtFFARD ON THE
SUBJECT OF THEATER.
John ID. spreckels Is willing Limit on
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES are to be
Invited.

Mr.. w. NJ. Giffard received an
important letter from Mr.. w. G.
Irwin this morning in regard to the
new Opera House. Mr.. Irwin has
seen John d. Spreckels about the
matter and finds that that gentle
man concurs in the plan to rebuild.
Neither Of the gentlemen, however,
feel disposed to put a great amount
of money into the project.
Mr.. Irwin outlines the plans to
Mr.. Clifford, which are to build a
house after the fashion of the old
one, using the standing walls as
far as practicable. The house must
be built and turned over for a GER
tain amount of money. Mr.. Gift
ford is afraid the limit is rather low
for the work to be done. He fears
that but little of the material now
on the ground can be utilized to
advantage.
This being week of several
steamers nothing will be done until
Monday. Next week contractors
will be consulted as to the cost of a
new Opera House. If their figures
are within the limit, Mr.. Giffard is
instructed to let the contract and
push the work as rapidly as
possible.

CRIMES THAT CHILL!
Two FRIGHTFUL MURDERS COM
MITTED IN SAN FRANCISCO.
Victims Young Girls of Good Repute-In
Church-Suspect Under
Arrest

SAN FRANCISCO, April 22.-The
CITY has been stirred in the past
week as it has not been stirred in
many years by two horrible MUIR
ders, both of young women of good
repute, both committed by the same
man, both committed under the
roof of a church and one marked
with savage multilation of the
victim.
The victims of the awful crimes
were Miss Blanche Lamont and
Miss Marian Williams, and the
church desecrated was the Emma
nuel Baptist Church on Bartlett
street between Twenty-second and
Tweuty-third. Both girls were
members of the church and the
man now in the City Prison on the
charge Of staying them is the
Assistant Superintendent of the
Sunday School.
The first victim was Marie Will
liams. Her corpse was discovered
covered with blood and frightfully
gashed, in the library of the
church.
The other murder was of Blanche
Lamont being found in the belfry
tower of the church, naked and de-
caying. She had been missing
since April sd, and her friends and
the police had been searching for
her.
The San Francisco murders
differ from those in London i'll the
fact that the victims were both
young girls of good repute. 1t is
plain that they must both have
been decoyed into the church by
some one of their acquaintance.
1t is plain that the man who
decoyed them was familiar with
the surroundings and had means Of
access to the building. These facts
limit TO a more or less narrow cir
Gle the possible criminal.
Theodore Durrant, medical STU
dent, National Guardsman, Sunday
school Superintendent and member
of Emmanuel Baptist Church, is
under arrest, charged with both
murders. A purse belonging to
to Miss Williams, which she is
known to have carried Friday even
ing, was found i'll the pockets Of
one of his coats. He was well ac-
quainted with Miss Williams and
Miss Lamont. Both were interest
ed in the church work in which he
took a leading part. He was fami-
lier with the building, to which he
has key.
He denies the crimes and makes
statement accounting tor the time
during which the murders are sup
posed to have been committed.
Against this the Chief of Police
says he has evidence enough against
Darrant to hang dozen men.

HAS BOUGHT A BOAT.
CAPTAIN GODFREY MAKES a PUR-
CHASE on THE COAST.
New steamer for the Inter-Island-Size,
Etc-sails for This Port on
May 9.

Captain Godfrey has purchase d
new boat for the Inter Island
fleet. He found suitable one in
San Francisco. "Cosmopolis" is
her name. Her gross tonnage is
$50. "a, net 267 20. She is r54 feet
long, 80 feet beam and 10. s deep.
Her horse power is $50. She is a
wooden vessel, seven years old, and
was built at San Francisco. She
has been plying between California
ports.
In appearance she resembles the
steamer Hawaii and is about the
same size. She will carry 400
tons Of sugar. On deck she has
seven large state rooms, and ac-
commodations that will make her a
desirable passenger boat.
Her name will be changed to
something more in keeping with
the warm climate. 1t will proba-
bly, be native.
The new steamer will go on the
Kauai route. Her first port will
likely be Makaweli. 1t has not
been decided who will captain her.
The Cosmopolis will leave San
Francisco on May ? and should ar
rive here on the 18th, or earlier.

and three tins OF opium floated to

Paul Smith fished up the main OBJ

proved to be bundle of opium. A

having been loosened from the
mud at the bottom.
There were just forty tins of the
stuff, 1t was done up i'll tarred
canvas. The top tins had leaked
and were only about half full. All
the others seemed to be in good
order. The stuff was evidently
dropped in the water for safe keep
ing. 1t was done up so secure that
it would have remained little
damaged until the covering had
rotted away.

PEOPLE OF NOTE.


Paragraphs ON Men and women of
Public Life
The Count Of Flanders, brother
of the King of the Belgians, is the
richest prince in Europe. Yet he
is asking to have his allowance
from the Belgian government in
creased from $40, 900 to $50, 900 a
year.
Lord Wolseley's great claim to
the respect Of the British army lies
in the fact that he has never been
beaten. Like Lord Napier in the
Abyssinian war, he went through
the Soudan campaign without a
single reverse.
Senator Vest of Missouri looks
like a man i'll heap of trouble
when he has collapsed into his seat.
Judging from his general used-up
and rumpled look one would think
that he had only just got out OF
football rush in time to be run
over by trolley car.
One of the most noteworthy con-
tractors OF Boston is Mrs. Henry
ID. Cram. She is Boston born and
bred, the daughter o. T. w.
Barry, and is young woman of
charming personality. She is a
member of the Professional Wo-
mans League Of that city.
Pictures of Henry Irving at 80
years look not unlike the photo
graph of Robert Louis Stevenson.
Irving was reared in the mining
district Of Cornwall and began life
as a clerk. He was an athlete and
a good swimmer and fond Of prowl-
ing in out-of-the way places.
