County, at place called Baden. For the sake
OF selling their town lots they called their
place South San Francisco, but something
over year ago the Postofiee Department
changed the name to the original one OF
Baden.
OF the applications herewith presented,
those marked as from South San Francisco are
all from one immediate neighborhood. The
houses with one or two exceptions) adioin
each other, and all within radius of 1000
feet or so. Those in Oakland are located at
''Stockyards, West Berkeley "a suburb of Oak
land, and are all right together.
To our communication under date of Oc-
tober 2S. 1895. we have up to date received no
an urgent one, and we again ask you to grant
the relief asked for in that letter.
1t is absolutely i'm possible for US to put up
goods for the next six months trade, and il
goods now up are not made available an i'm
mense loss will be incurred by our dealers and
our trade will be diverted to ether points.
A suspension OF the enforcement of require
ments on meats already packed for sixty DAYS
from January 1, 1896, is absolutely necessary
TO work of the stock on hand; and also that
your force OF inspectors be organized and get
to work with all possible dispatch.
We are extremely sorry that portion of the
delay has been caused by our ignorance OF
steps necessary, but, as We have explained, it

mate what meager knowledge they possessed

THE ADMIRAL'S ADVICE
How Stout Old Sea Fighter Defended
His Wooden Ships.

HIS NOOden Snfps.
Old Admiral Farrngut said that the best de-
tense against al enemy's guns is not armor-
plate, but a fierce and well-direeted return
fire that will silence the foe. He believed in
protecting his ships, but he relied for success
upon good guns and brave men. Battles are
won with them. not with armor
Now that the season is changing 1t is unneces-
sary to recommend more protection for your
body il the shape OF clothing. But no fabric
ever woven will keep out the autumn colds
that fasten themselves upon the system so rap
idly and stick so long. Doubtless you know
people who, although lightly clad, never seem
10 take cold, while others cough and shiver
despite all their wrapping. The people OF the
first class, like Farragut's ships, are defended
from within. They have nerves stout as whip
cord and blood that leaps with the irrepressible
vfgor Of perfect health.
: Maybe they were born so, but in uncountable
instances this condition resulted from timely
use OF wholesome stimulant at the first ap-
proach OF cold. The most popular sttmulant
for medicinal and family use is Duffy's Pure
Malt Whiskey. Experience has shown how
completely, by stirring the tagging circulation,
it prevents congestion, and so helps the sys-
tenn to get rid OF cold.
1t whets the appetite, too. This is an impor-
tant thing when you remember that people
with bad cold do not care for food. Dufy's
Pure Malt Whiskey of itself retards waste Of
tissue, as experiments have shown, but its
chief value lies in its tonic qualities Insist
on having Duffys.

EXPLAINS ITS OBJECTS
The Society Of American Socialists
Adopts Liberal Pro-
spectus.

The Society of American Socialists held
a meeting at 727 Geary street last evening
for the purpose of perfecting organization
Owing to the small attendance on account
of the weather the purpose was not fully
accomplished, the election OF council be-
ing postponed until future meeting. The
lowing prospectus, which was adopted by
the meeting:
The rapid growth of interest in Socialist
ideas among III classes in San Francisco has
impressed US with the necessity of extending
the educational work which is being done in
of life are anxious for relief from the present
social disorder, and desire to learn how So
ciallsm would correct it.
The Society of American Socialists Is organ
lied TO assist in bringing this information be-
fore every citizen. II believes that the coun-
try has been prepared by the severe education
OF trusts and monopolies for general Socialist
movement in which the people of all occupa-
lions and classes will unite. Its especial pur-
pose is therefore to accelerate this all-societr
effort for the introduction of Socialist princi-
pies. The society is in no sense split in the
Socialist ranks. II IS in complete sympathy
with the platform and ends of the Socialist
Labor party, and viii seek to build up that
party.
The work to be done will be in entire har.
mony with all socialist sections of the City.
The society is not religious body. 1t is an
ecoHolRic, etnlCal anu euucdlloHal dsSoclaLon.
We adopt the name Society of American So
cialists, not to imply that there are English,
German, French and American socialisms dis
tinct from one another. One of the strongest
features OF the socialist movement is its inter-
national character and the fact that ii is by
far the most important practical step toward
the federation of the world that has yet been
undertaken. The name is chosen to impress
upon Americans the truth that socialism is for
Americans, that it is natural American in
stitution, as thoroughly indigenous as capital
ism and as truly American es intelligent in
dustrial evolution is American.

THE POET-SCOUT'S TALK
Captain Jack Crawford Delights
an Audience in Y. M. G.
A. Hall.
Pony Bills Cowboy Sermon Delivered
With Intense Dramatic Effect
and Power.

Captain Jack Crawford, known the
world over as the Poet-Scout, delivered
one of his characteristic lectures in the
auditorium OF the Y. NJ. c. a. last night.
He told many pathetic and amusing
stories, recited several original poems,
sang q few of his own songs. and, in one
part OF his original and varied programme,
gave a successful imitation OF what he
was pleased to call "the Rocky Mountain
canary" better known as the donkey. In
fact Captain Crawford started out to please
his audience, and he succeeded most ad-
mirably. At no time did his listeners
grow weary, and when he closed his even
ing's entertainment with graphic IL
lustration of how wild Bill" killed two
men in half second the audience fairly
yelled itself hoarse.
General Warfield introduced the speaker,
saying:
Captain Crawford first saw service in
the Forty-eighth Pennsylvania, Army of
the Potomac. 1t was his regiment that
dug the famous mine blown up so success
fully in front of Petersburg. At the close
OF the war he came to the frontier. engag-
ing as scout for the regular army. He was
in all the struggles against that famous
Indian chief, Sitting Bull, doing valiant
service as scout. l now introduce Captain
Jack Crawford"
Captain Crawford appeared on the stage
in a full buckskin suit, wearing big
som brero, from underneath which fell a
mass OF wavy. brown hair, Just beginning
to be tiecked with gray.
In rapid succession be told story after
story TO the great am usement and edifica-
ton Of his hearers. He said that he had
never seen but one game of football and
that was when his son was some kind of
back, for Pennsylvania team. He did
something wonderful in the way of max
ing what they called q touchdown" and
then the people called him hero. He
declared that 1t was worse than fighting
Indians, and by far more dangerous.
He recited beautiful poem written by
himself for the G.. A. r. Encampment at
Louisville. There was no enmity," he
said, ''existing between the men who fired
cold lead at each other. II was all con-
fined to old women and political trick
sters. The rebels believed they were right,
for men do not die for things they do not
believe in. They were as honest as we
were, and I respect them for it''
Captain Crawford read with great effect
a poem written by himself. called, "a
Short History of the War" following this
with his famous song, Marching Through
Georgia."

THEY COURT INSPECTION,
Butchers Explain Their Circum.
stances to the Secretary of
Agriculture.
A Suspension of Regulations for Sixty
Days From January I Is
Requested.

The Butchers Board of Trade of San
Francisco and Alan eda counties has for
warded a communication to J. Sterling
Morton, Secretary of the Department of
Agriculture, stating that majority of The
butchers under the jurisdiction OF the
board desire q Government inspection OF
the animals slaughtered at their several
places of business and of the houses them
selves at an early date. The following is q
copy of the letter:
active cooperation in carrying out the intent
of said inspection. and the only reason that an
earlier application has not been made was the
total absence here OF any definite information
as to the necessary steps to be taken, ETC.
The only knowledge obtainable was in the
hands of Custom house brokers, with whom we
seldom come in contact, as you will see later on
The first information we have been able to
get was from your DR.. g. S. Baker, who arrived

pie copy which was procured from q customs
broker and from which we have had these
printed here.
Strengthening is done here by firms which do
that only, no packing being done by any of
them, with the exception OF two or three firms
who handle hogs only.
Firms, as rule, handle only one class of
animals, it seldom being the case that beef
Beef and calves are mostly handled by the
same firm. sheep by others and hogs by others.
The slaughtered animals, as they hang in their
several houses are sold entire to jobbers and
retailers, in some few cases direct to packers

purchase money was his seperate property
unless the contrary was expressly alleged.
$50 here, too, l think Judge Slack was
in error"
The case will undoubtedly be appealed
upon the points presented. The decision
of Judge Slack allows the plaintiffs to
amend their complaint, but it is probable
that they will allow a Judgment to be
taken on the pleadings as they are, and
then appeal from that, or it may be that
the decision on the demurrer will be taken
to the Supreme Court.
