FIVE YEARS FOR HURLEY.
JUDGE WALLACE GIVES HIM THE
FULL LIMIT FOR JURY
BRIBING.
TON WHICH SURPRISED HIS
AUDIENCE.

William J. Hurley has been given the
full sentence allowed by law for the crime
of jury-bribing, and from the remarks he
made it was evident Judge Wallace was
sorry the limit had been made so small.
His sentence is five years Imprisonment in
the State prison.
There was much larger crowd than
usual, even on sentence day, in the court
room when Hurley's case was called. The
prisoner still wore his pointed skull-cap
and was still possessed of the idea that he
was insane.
MI Forbes, Hurley's counsel. after
silencing an attempted suggestion from
his client, made two motions-one for a
new trial and the other for an arrest of
Judgment. The motion for a new trial was
based upon the fact that it had not been
proved that at the time he approached
Johnson the last time he knew that
Johnson had been drawn as a Juror
The court failed to see in the point any
reason for granting new trial of the case,
and he therefore overruled the motion for
a new trial and also the motion for an ar
rest of Judgment, which latter motion was
made on statutory grounds. Forbes then
having nothing more to say, Hurley took
occasion to address the court in a manner
calculated to suggest to the court that he
was crazy.
WAS that man johnson that talked to
sworn?" he asked, and then after pause,
''You can do as you want with me. I'll
soon be in heaven, anyway, and don't
care. I'm ready for anything. have a
bellyful of glass and I'm ready for any,
thing. God bless you and all of u.s.
At this point the court interrupted him.
''You can scarcely expect anything less
than the extreme limit of the law" said
the court, ''for it is not large. 1t is only
one-fourth as large as the term allowed for
footpads, and this crime is a worse one.
The sentence of the court is that you be
imprisoned in the State prison for the
period of five years" a murmur of COM
ment ran through the crowd, and then
every one hurried out of the courtroom SO
as to get a good position by the stair rail
ing in order to see the prisoner start on his
way to the penitentiary.

just Now He Is Most Interested in Ohio
Approaching Election.
Politicians of all parties were greatly in
terested in the brief dispatch from Column
bus, Ohio, published in the CALL, reading
as follows:
ut is stated here on good authority that
arrangements are being made for a West
ern trip this summer by Governor Nc
Kinley. Insurance Commissioner Hahn,
who is now in California, is said to be pre-
pairing the Governors itinerary"
When Mr.. Hahn, who is secretary of the
Republican National Committee, was ques-
toned regarding this announcement he
said:
II know nothing about arrangements
for Governor McKinley's visit to this
coast. He is now in the South and my
visit to California is simply one of pleasure.
Governor Mckinley is just now more in
terested in the election this fall of Re
publican Governor and other State officials
than in anything else at present, as the
Legislature will elect Senator to take the
place of Senator Brlce. In Ohio, you know,
we have State election every year.
"The election of 1896 will take care OF it
self, SO you see that there is no political
significance in my visit to this State.
II wish, however, that Governor Nc
Kinley could see his way clear to making
some speeches in Utah. which is now en-

DISCUSSED THE new WOMAN
DIR. VOORSANGER THINKS HER
EXISTENCE DUE TO MANS
WEAKNESS.
CLOSE OF THE FRIDAY EVENING
LECTURES AT TEMPLE
BETH ISRAEL.

Preaching at the Temple Emanuel last
night, DR.. Jacob Voorsanger delivered an
able exposition of his views on the New
Woman"
He started by saying that about year
ago he was unfortunate enough to make a
few innocent remarks which caused tenn
pest in the teapot of the Women's Press
Association. One or two good criticisms
made at the time induced him to go
further into the subject, which he discussed
last evening.
The reverend gentleman stated that he
recently saw caricature of twentieth
century woman conducting her husband
to the theater, and asking him to remain
inside while she retired for the purpose of
partaking of liquid refreshment.
"Now," continued DR.. Voorsanger, "a
caricature is reductio ad absurdum, but
when ever see one receive warning of
the coming events which cast their
shadows before. A caricature always in
dicates that there is something wrong in
society. No man caricatures nything
against which there is nothing to say"
sit is unreasonable that there should be
one standard of morality for man and one
for woman. The law of mutual obligation
requires that there shall be fair and equal
division OF responsibility between man and
woman"
In the further course of his address the
rabbi treated of woman as she was re-
garded in ancient Greece and Rome, and
gave it as his opinion that the new woman
exists because of the weakness of man, and
that she can be the ideal of man at the
same time as the law of mutual response
bility exists.
Rabbi M S. Levy's discourse at the
Temple Beth Israel was entitled, "The
Aftermath" and was devoted to resume
of the work of the season. In the course of
his remarks DIR. Levy congratulated the
mem bers of Beth Israel on the uniform
good attendances, and said that it was but
meet that, considering the inconvenience
attendant upon the observance of the Sab

A WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.
One of the Remarkable Achievement s
of the Science of the Age.

of the Science of the Age.
From the Herald, South Bend, Washington
1t falls to our lot this week to tell our
readers, and especially those who are not
blessed with perfect health, of one of the
greatest and simplest remedies of the
century. Personally we enjoy the very
best of health, year in and year out, but
among our friends is J. L. Meyers, pro-
prietor of the Broadway Pharmacy, man
who knows his business thoroughly, is en-
tirely welded to chemistry and hygiene,
and often ''talks shop" One evening the
conversation turned on new discoveries in
drugs.
He told us that one of our mutual
friends, John Wyandt, locomotive en-
gineer, owed his health to a new medicine
known as DR.. Williams Pink Pills and
that Mrs Lawler, the wife of Patrick Law
Ter, cooper, at the Tannin Extract Works,
and well known in this city, has been
raised by them from what her friends
thought was her death bed.
Having had our attention called to the
matter so particularly we have since found
that everybody has good word for Pink
Pills, and especially were we interested in
the case of Mrs. Lawler. Finally we
if Pink Pills mad really done as much for
her as had been told. She said they had
and she would repeat the facts to me.
Mrs. Lawler said: 1.-TWO years and half
ago l was taken sick. then lived in Ia
coma, and for five weeks was not able to
turn myself in bed. My husband and
boys lifted me around and cared for me,
and they scarcely hoped for my recovery.
| could eat nothing was simply worn out.
81 sent for the Pink Pills and I began
taking them. 1t said in the directions
that they should be taken Immediately
after eating SO I ate lightly, then took the
pills, and then in two days was able to sit
up. In two weeks [ was up and around,
and was able to make the trip of 125 miles
by cars to South Bend where my husband
had gone to work.
''Since that time have been well and
have done my own work, and now when
[ feel worn out OF i'll | always take Pink
Pills and they help me at once have in
the two years and half, used twenty-one
boxes of them and we all use them when
we are feeling out of sorts. I have recon-
mended them to many of my friends, and
they always helped them, and l can say to
all mothers that they will find them a
good medicine to build them up, cure
headaches, dizziness and the ills which
so often beset Them
Mr.. Lawler also stated that he had often
taken Pink Pills. That he used to be
troubled with sick headache and dizziness
III the morning, but that Pink Pills had
cured him.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are for sale by all druggists,

PHILOSOPHY OF BEING WELL
DR.. ELLINWOOD DELIVERS A
LECTURE AT COOPER MEDI-
CAL COLLEGE.
DEVELOPMENT OF PERFECTION DUE
TO SURROUNDING CONDITIONS
OF MATTER.

DIR. c. n. Ellinwood, professor of physio-
logy at Cooper Medical College, delivered a
lecture last night in the assembly rooms
on Exercise, the Philosophy of Being
Well, or the Science of Growing in the
Highest and Best Development. The
lecture was one of the regular course and
was fairly well attended. The speaker said
in part:
'The art of maintaining the harmonious
workings of our muscular. glandular and
nervous systems involves profound studies
not to be comprised in a single lecture, not
to be exhausted even in sin gle lifetime.
Modern experience, modern education
in all lines of attainment has forcbly i'm
pressed upon its very title-page methodic
work, methodic training - exercise.
Physical culture has had its epoch in
human history. The Spartans were the
first to systematically cultivate physical
excellence.
''Lacedemonia developed such formid-
able warriors by physical training and
drill that every state and nation has pur-
sued some system for like purpose ever
since. Though having little sympathy
with the hygiene and esthetic purposes of
the Greeks, the Romans adopted their
gymnastic ritual, employing it solely to tit
soldiers for the wars
1.-The relative development and perfec-
ton of species or an individual would
seem to be due to the surrounding con-
ditions of matter and force, and the in
herent power of organism to appropriate
and elaborate the elements of nutrition
which they supply.
'AtaylSmS can be corrected and removed
by the application of science, so that inner
tied maladies need not be inflicted on the
new man. The intelligent management of
children from infancy and during the
formative period OF their lives should have
regard to their nervous systems as we'll as
their stomachs. The child should not be
worried and fretted by an impatient nurse,
nor leased and excited by com panions or
'nagged by teachers. 1t often happens the
most kind and indulgent parents bring up
vicious children, because they have left the
training to Others"

tory to undergoing the final ordeal for ad-
mission into the Union. They have to
elect two United States Senators, and it is
very important that the Republicans carry
that State"
Should the great protectionist decide to
enter the Utah State campaign, leading
local Republicans will make great effort
to induce him to visit the coast, as init
mated in conversations with number of
them.
~ would like to say this about your
magnificent commonwealth" said Mr..
Hahn, in conclusion: For great many
years | have wanted to visit California. l
have read great deal about this State and
its wonderful resources, but reading about
it is not like seeing it. | don't know of
any State in the Union where you can GO
up into the mountains, get caught in a
hail and snow storm and in less than three
hours see flowers in bloom and straw
berries in bearing"
This tribute was called forth by the ex-
perience of Mr.. Hahn during recent trip
to Mount Hamilton.

THE CARPETS DISAPPEARED
And w. Brown and A. Hoffman Are Ac-
cused of Burglary.

William A Brown and Albert Hoffman,
residing at SIG Howard street, were ar

Dillon and Crockett last night, and were

The accusations of burglary against the
prisoners are based on the disappearance

GUILTY OF MANsLAUGHTER.
The Jury's Verdict in the Case of Maggie
RusSelI.

The Jury's Verdict in the Case of Maggie
Russell.
The case of Maggie Russell, charged
with the murder of her husband, went to
the jury last evening, and verdict of man
slaughter was brought in.
The defendant and her 12-year-old son
were both on the stand for the defense yes
terday morning, and they told tale of
brutality which has seldom been equaled
IN the courts. The theory of the defense
was that she was driven to desperation by
the acts OF the man, and that the shooting
could not be called crime.
The crime was committed in November
last: Mrs. Russell was standing in her
yard, when she heard her husband coming
after her, threatening as he came, and as
he stepped through the doorway she drew
a pistol which she had previously secreted
on her person and shot him dead

DAMAGE BY FROsTs.

Fruitmen Are Not Pleased With the
Present Outlook.
Reports from different localities show
that the recent frost caused much damage,
and in many places the almond and april
cot crops are ruined. Peaches and prunes
were not damaged to any great extent.
Some of the fruit-raisers look upon the
coming season with expectations of dis
couragement. While the building of the
valley road will cause great home con-
sumption of fruit, the outlook is not bright
The orange men have the best chance of
all the fruit-raisers, as their crop has been
