A SENSATION.
New Developments in the
Durant Case.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. IA. - Another
sensation has developed in the Durant
case. Whether it is case of jury bribery
or bold attempt at blackmail, the police
and others who have Investigated are un-
willing and probably unable to state with
positiveness. The fact remains that Mrs.
Durant, mother of the young man who is
accused OF numbering Minnie Williams
and Blanche Lamont, was approached re-
Gently by a mysterious woman whose de-
sire was TO sell something of extreme
importance TO the safety of Theodore
Durant. 1t was intimated that at least
three of the jurors already accepted could
be influenced to vote for an acquittal, but
money would be required. Mrs. Durant
not only spurned the offer but informed
the attorneys for her son and also notified
the police Of the nature Of the offer made
to her.
The woman is Mrs Sarah GROCER, who
resides at 516 Leavenworth street. While
she denies having offered any jurors for
sale, she admits having visited Mrs. Dur
ant and offering for coin to bring out the
accomplishment OF something which
would be invaluable to the defense OF
Theodore Durant Mrs. GROCER says she
only acted as the agent OF third party
and did so innocently.

Mothers, Nurses and Physicians Rec

A child's first five years are one con-
tinual battle for existence.
A helpless baby in the hands of parents
or nurses who do not fully understand
the peculiar needs OF childhood is the
most to be pitied of all living beings.
Its precious life is hourly exposed to
peril from improper food and uncleanli-
ness. Hot weather threatens the un-
guarded ones with diarrhoea and cholera
infantum. weaning and teething reduce
their strength and make them apt to yield
to summer disease.
Precious little lives sacrificed to ignor-
ance! Every one might be saved.
All these diarrhoesl diseases, whether
cholera infantum, diarrhoes or summer
complaint, are preventable. Physicians
emphatically say so.
Hot weather alone will not produce
these disorders; it simply weakens the in
FAINT digestion, and makes 1t easy for
improper feeding to bring on dreaded
What, then, is proper diet for baby in
hot weather?
Healthy mothers milk Is best; but
when the child is being weaned, or when

lactated food must be used at once, either
to supplement mothers milkSor as a COM

The principal element of mothers milk
is sugar of milk. This is the basis of lac
tated food. With IL is combined the nu-
tritious elements of the great cereals,
wheat, oats and barley, so prepared as to
be readily digested and assimilated. The
addition of the salts found In mothers
milk makes lactated food a perfect sub
stitute.
Mothers who are weaving their little
ones find that nothing else so well agrees
with their children.
Lactated food works marvels with little
ones who are puny and pale.
A week or two suffices to show its
splendid effect in brighter eyes, fairer
skin, livelier manner, and steady gain

Lactated food saves babies lives. II is
the surest preventive In the world for
