Reader, did you ever take SIMMONS
LIVER REGULATOR, the "KrNGs OF
LIVER MEDICNEs?" Everybody needs
take liver remedy. 1t is a sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried of remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou-
bles, and give tone to the whole sys-
TEN. For q laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. It
does not grippe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.

EDITOR PuLlTzsR's GIFT TO PARIS
Group or StatuarN or Washington and
Lafayette Unveiled

Lafayette Unveiled
Paris, Dec. bright weather shone
upon the ceremony today OF the unwilling
of the group Of statuary Of Washington
and Lafayette, modelled by the well known
sculptor Fred August Bartholdi, and pre-
sented to the city of Paris by Joseph Pu-
liter, editor OF the New York World. A
notable assemblage witnessed the unveil-
ing. The site of the bronze group is at
the west end OF Place des Ltat Unis in
the most fashionable quarter of Paris.
Ballard Smith, the London correspondent
OF the New York World, first made short
speech, presenting the group of statuary
and was frequently applauded.
He said: II am here today as a repre-
sentative OF Joseph Pulitzer, who honors
himself and his country in presenting
this statue of Washington and Lafayette,
kindred names in the deepest affections
or two peoples, to this beautiful and his
torical chief city of our sister republic.
II he could have been here, Mr.. Pulitzer
would doubtless say more than 1 can of
the patriotic and affectionate motives
which inspired his gift. But we can per-
haps sufficiently interpret Mr.. Pulitzer's
cardinal motive by quoting the inscrip-
ton that he himself has prepared for the
statue, which Is meant to be, as he has
written 1t, and speaking as he undoubt-
edly may, for all our fellow citizens:
AAOAhdbS a ID fIdnce en- reconnaissance
de son generoux concours dams la lutte
du peuple des stats unis pour la llberte
ct Independence. Homage to France
in gratitude for her generous cooperation
in the struggle of the people of the United
States for liberty and independence "
Mr. Smith then alluded to the fact that
1t was Pulitzer's good fortune as editor
and proprietor of the New York World
to inaugurate the popular subscription
which gave worthy pedestal to Barthoi-
dis statue of Liberty Enlightening the
World' in New York halbor and in con-
clusion, in Mr.. Pulitzers name, he pre-
sented the group to Paris. The band that
was present thereupon played the MAR
seillaise."
M. Rombard president of the Paris mu-
nicipal council, in accepting the gift for
the city, briefly reviewed the history of
the two men thus reproduced in bronze
and said that the union of flags under
which Washington and Lafayette stood
hand In hand represented really the union
OF the people of the two republics. He
hoped the echoes OF todays cheers would
traverse the ocean and even unite more
closely the two nations. He thanked Mr..
Pulitzer warmly and also M. Bartholdi
for the manner in which he carried out
his conception.
The band then played the American an
them.

The Daughter Given Possession
by the Courts.
FOUR MILLIONS ARE INVOLVED
The Attorneys for the Successful Liti
CANT VIII Receive One Fourth
as Their Reward.

San Francisco, Nov. S0.-The supreme
court of California closed the litigation
over the Blythe estate today by deny
Ing all existing appeals, except that
of the Blythe company from the decree
of distribution. Todays decision prac-
tically settles the whole case, confirm
ing Florence Blythe Hinckley in the
possession of her fathers property,
valued at $4,OO0,OOO.
The Blythe case was one of the most
noted in the civil history of California
courts. The question hinged on pa
ternity, the efforts of other claimants
being directed toward proving that
Florence Blythe was no relation of
Thomas Blythe, who had a valuable
estate when he dsed. Now that the
question has been settled the lawyers
in the case will receive their reward.
1t is understood that their fees will
amount to over $S00,000, attorneys for
the successful litigant having defended
her contention on a contingent fee. The
costs of the suit will also amount to an
Independent fortune.

HORSE SHOW AT SAN FRANCISCO
Much Superior 10 That of Last Year in
Every Particular.

San Francisco, Dec. 3.-The second an
nual exhibition of the Horse Show Asso-
citation of the Pacific coast was opened
today under favorable auspices. The
show is much superior to that of last year
in the number and character of entries
and in the arrangements of the manage
ment.
The boxes surrounding the ring were
filled with society people from all over
the Pacific coast and the general attend
ance crowded the promenade and occupied
all the seats provided. Although the en-
tries are for the most part local, eastern
horses will not be entirely unrepresented.
Walter Hobarts four-in-hand prize win
ners at the New York show were on the
tan bark today. George A. Pope and
Henry j. Croker both have eastern hors-
es entered in their names. Hermann, the
magician, has entered five horses. Walter
Hobart has in all As horses on exhibition.
In all there are 479 entries and $50 horses.
The show was formally opened at noon
with a luncheon in the pavilion given by
Henry j. Croker, president of the assoc
citation, to the directors, judges and mem
bers of the ring committees.

CALIFORNIA
DIOCESE
EPISCOPAL
Division Makes 1t Necessary to Elect
New Bishop.

Los Angeles, Cal. Dec. AT the re-
cent triennial convention of the Prot
estant Episcopal church in Minneapolis
one of the first matters to receive the
sanction of both houses was PROPOSE
ton to divide the diocese of California,
and to erect a new see in the southern
section of that state, and today the
first diocesan convention, called for the
purpose of putting this action into legal
effect opened in this city. Clerical
and lay delegates were present from the
counties of Santa Barbara, Ventura,
Los Angeles, San Bernardino River
side, Orange and San Diego, all of
which are within the new diocese.
Bishop Nichols, who has heretofore
ruled over the affairs of the church in
the entire state, has chosen the north
ern diocese, having San Francisco for
its see city; and it therefore becomes
incumbent on the convention to select
the first bishop of the new diocese. A
large number of representative divines
have been spoken of in connection with
the elevation. First and foremost is
DR.. Spalding of st. Johns church, San
Francisco, who took a prominent part
in the convention at Minneapolis, and
lowered like a giant among the cele-
brated orators and debaters in that
gathering. Then there is DR.. Daniel
H. Greer of st. Bartholomew church,
New York City. who refused call to
become the successor of the late Phillips
Brooks in Boston, and would doubtless
have been a bishop ere this had he ac-
cepted. Dr. ]. H. Johnson of Christ
church, Detroit, Mich. has many
friends, but it is doubtful whether he
would accept an election. in view of
the fact that last year he declined the
bishopric of Indiana.
Others favorably mentioned are Rev
DR.. George w. Douglass, formerly Of
Washington, d. c., and who is now
travelling in Europe owing to the ill
health of his wife, and Rev. H. B.
Restarick of San Diego, who was also
a delegate to the recent convention.
The convention will doubtless decide
to designate the see as the diocese of
Los Angeles"

Colville Reservation Has Been
Prospected.
A TALK WITH A PR0SPECT0R
Most of the Locations Have Been Made
Close TO the International
Boundary.

Colville. Wash. Nov. 30.-The Col
vile Indian reservation is now the
prospector's paradise, If the records in
the office of the county auditor are an
index. Within the past three months
there have been fully 100 quartz loca-
ton notices filed for record in the aud
itors Office, representing that many
claims located on the ceded portion of
the reserve. A few of these claims are
located in the vicinity of Northport,
but vast majority are in the rich min
eral region along Kettle river between
Marcus and the international boundary
line.
There are notices of record claiming
gold, silver, copper, cinnabar, iron,
mica and coal, and many of the other
minerals are represented. If one-tenth
part of evidence vouchsafed by the
mineral locations is true, there are UNI
told millions of undeveloped wealth in
sight.
These locations are not all that have
been made, for there are those that
bear date from time to time as far
back as 1892. The interior department
has, almost every year, directed the
local officials to discourage any in
vasion of whites upon the reservation
and ex-Secretary Noble, just before re-
firing, four years ago, issued and pub
lished an order that any one, not an
Indian and entitled by right Of triba
relations to reside on the reservation
who, through any pretext sought a pri.
GRITTY of right or settlement on the res
ervation by going or remaining upor
the territory embraced within it's boun
daries before the issuance of the presi
dents proclamation declaring it par
of the public domain, would be barred
from any rights or privileges accorded
by the act of congress or any treat!
making reserve public lands. This or
der had the desired effect for a time
but the prospectors finally concluded
that it was bluff, and they have beer
lodging the Indian police and stalking
out mineral claims in remote places.

THE PATTERSON MURDER TRIAL
Crime for Which Road Overs seer Is on
Trial at Rathdrum.

Rathdrum, Idaho, Dec 3.-The case of
the state against j. j. Patterson was
called today, and up to this writing jury
has not been selected. Mr.. Patterson is
the man charged with the murder of Ed
Terrell on the st. Joe river on the Sd day
of last April. The facts as testified to at
the coroner's inquest and at the prelimin-
airy examination, show that Mr.. Patter-
son, the defendant, was acting in the ca
pacity of road overseer for his district.
1t seems that some dissatisfaction had
been expressed at Mr.. Pattersons cleo
ton to the office of road overseer and the
parties were not on the best of terms for
some time prior to the shooting.
On the morning of the homicide that Mr..
Patterson, apprehensive of some trouble
on account of quarrel that had taken
place between William Terrell and the
defendant, civilian Terrell being broth
er of the deceased), had armed himself
with a revolver, and on the morning of
the Sd, soon after the hands had assem-
bled for work on the road, some harsh
words had passed between the defendant
and the deceased, the deceased made at
Patterson, he claims, with knife. Other
witnesses. however. fail to testify to
having seen any knife. The defendant
suddenly drew from his overcoat pocket
a revolver, fired instantly and while Fer
rell was approaching him. The ball struck
the deceased in the left side, directed up
wards and towards the right breast, which
caused Terrell to turn suddenly from
Patterson walk rapidly for several steps
and fell upon his face. He was afterwards
taken by parties who were at work to
his home where he soon died.

CITY ELECTIONS IN MASSACHUSETTS,
Main Issue Was A. p. A. and Anti
A. r.. A.

Boston, Dec. 3-The new city govern
ments were chosen in 10 of the 81 cities
of the state today and in three-quarters
of them, there was practically no enthu-
siasm whatever. In many places party
lines were not drawn, and in Springfield,
Somerville, Gloucester, Brockton and 9TH
er cities the battle was fought on the A.
p. A. issue The contest in Springfield
was one of the warmest in the history of
that city and resulted in the overthrow of
the candidates endorsed by the A. p. A.
In Somerville, where the organization
has had control, it's candidates for mayor
was defeated. The secret organization
was triumphant in Gloucester and Brock
ton. Republicans showed unexpected
strength in Fall River and carried it by
1900 plurality. They also carried Law
renee, former democratic stronghold,
by over 500 plurality. Marlborough, NAL
den, Brocton and Newton again elected
republican mayors. The democrats won
a victory in Haverhill, Mayor Jewett
meeting defeat by over 600 plurality.

Alaskan boundary Dispute Can Be Set.
tied by the United states.
Washington, Nov. 3O.-Professor Mar
Gus Baker, of the coast and geodetic sur
vey, who went to Alaska for the United
States in connection with the boundary
dispute, stirred the usually mild scien-
lists of Washington last night by the
holiness of his declaration in a lecture
on Alaska, before the National Geo
graphists' Society. He secuted the idea
of arbitrating the question of England's
claim to 5000 square miles of territory be-
tween Portland canal and the beam canal
on the southeast border of Alaska, and
said the only arbitration advisable was
the arbitration of battle. The sentiment
was loudly applauded. Baker was in
vited by a popular vote to repeat the lee
ture in a larger hall.

WHAT GOLD ADVOCATE CAN RePLY7
Why Has France Gold 10 Spare With
Millions OF Silver Currency?

New York, Nov. 30.-Financiers and OPP
orators are looking forward anxiously to
the report of the secretary of the treasury
and the presidents message, in so far as
they may bear on the currency situation.
Currency reformers are unusually active
at the present time and impress upon the
financial community that the reason gold
continues to go out is because our cur
rency is diluted with deprecated silver
and fiat paper. They forget that France,
which has within the last 20 years accu-
INFLATED the largest stock of gold the
world has ever saw, contains in its cur
rency a vast volume of this so-called
deprecated silver and fiat paper. Why
is it then that France accumulates gold
while the United States is steadily los
ing it? The answer would seem to lie in
the difference between the economic pol
icies of the two countries.

HOW THEY RUSHED IN IN 1876
Major O'Neill Recalls the Stirring Day of
Florence and ORC Elmo.

Msjor O'Neill Recalls the Stirring Day of
Florence and ORC Fine.
Major O'Neill, deputy clerk of the
United States court, says that in 1861
the miners commenced to flock to the
Nez Perez reservation in search of
gold, and 1t was impossible to keep
them off. This was the time the dis
coveries were at Florence, Elk City,
ORC Elmo and Warrens. The treaty of
1868 ceded that portion of the reserva-
ton and embraced large portion of the
country where placer mines were
known to exist.
"If a rush commences next spring
to the Colville reservation" said Major
O'Neill, a regiment of soldiers could
not keep them off. 1t would be almost
as useless as trying to stop a whirl-
wind"
