that this committee would district the city

field, who would thoroughly cover the
ground.
J.'P. Abbott of Antioch and George A.
Nourse of Fresno were before the board
yesterday, to urge the claims of their re-
spective localities upon the road.
Mr.. Abbott laid especial stress in his
argument upon the deep-water facilities of
Antioch's harbor, and submitted detailed
description thereof.
Mr.. Nourse said that the people of Fresno
County, and of that portion of the valley
generally, were anxious that the road
should be constructed this year. and be-
lieved that it should start at some point on
the bay above Port Costa. This, he said,
would obviate the necessity of mourning
any great expense, for the present at least,
in securing terminal facilities in this city
or across the bay, and would materially
hasten the work of construction. 1t was
this gentlemans idea, in case such plan
was adopted, that a fast steamer should be
put into service between this city and the
terminus

1t Is Well Worth Knowing Now That
Grip Is Striking Down Feeble People.
The economy of nation is disturbed when
great amounts of money are boarded instead of
being kept in free circulation. The economy
OF the human body suffers when the blood is
stored up in certain organs while others have
scarcely enough to live on. This boarding OF
blood is called congestion, and it is one OF the
dangers OF the present outbreak OF grip. 1t az
fects lungs, stomach and bowels.
Congestion unrelieved becomes infam ma
ton, and every intelligent person knows what
that means when the eenters of life are affected.
Ihat growing soreness across the chest, that
painful sense OF tullness in the head are signs
that the grip has laid its clutches upon you.
"Please send me six bottles of Dufy's Pure
Malt Whisky" writes Mr. E. Alexander of NAL
vern, Iowa, sit is the best medicine for the grip
and we must have it,"
Congested organs are relieved of their sur
plus OF blood, the circulation is eoualiZed the
appetite sharpened and the digestion improved
by this wholesome and helpful stimulant That
explains its unbroken success in cases of grip.
Nothing which does less will ward off the
grip, and no product of mortal skill can do
more. Subjected to the stern test OF experience
Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky has established itself
firmly in the esteem of physicians and lavmen
feeling its strengthening influence, wonder
what they would do without it in these bleak
winter days when grip is in the air.
Nobody need try to do without it, for grocers
and druggists always have it in stock, knowing
steady demand for it, Doctors differ as to the
final effect of certain remedies. There are only
a few, the value of which is beyond dispute.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky is among them.

A COMMITTEE OF THE UNION

SECURE IT.
THE PRIZE Is ONE WORTH WORK

In pursuance of a resolution offered at q
recent meeting of the Republican Union

pointed the followingnamed gentlemen as

''This committee, said Mr.. Frederick,
"has been namedEby President Backus, but
it will not be called together until after
each gentleman named has been notified
and it has been ascertained that he can
serve. If any one is unable, for one reason
or another, to serve, the vacancy will have
to be filled. We want a good, strong COM
mittee that will work to secure the prize,
for it is one worth working for. When it
is complete it will be called together, prob
ably within ten days, and the plan of ac-
ton will be outlined.
Everything that is possible will be done
to secure the convention for this CITY,"

explodes it behind the piston. The .gaso-
line tank holds two and half gallons,
which is enough for twelve hours, running
and costs about 40 cents. The battery
costs next to nothing.
The machine is finished now and has
been run at ten miles an hour on level
roads, while it has. climbed steep grades
about the Potrero. In appearance it looks
a little clumsy in comparison with the airy
lightness of the ordinary pedal machines,
but the maker says that its weight and
strength are necessary that it may stand
hard knocks and rough usage.

which turns pinion wheel in the toothed
segment of circle. Another lever
changes the speed and one foot works a
brake. There is an alarm gong to tell OF
its coming, and there is no good reason
why it shouldn't have a top for sun and
rain.
Whatever it turns out to be in practical
use it does run and is steered easily, and

They Will Probably Be Taken Before
the Supreme Court.
Mary Hartman, the keeper of dive on
Pine street, appeared in Judge CampbelPs
court yesterday morning for sentence on a
charge of violating the dive ordinance.
At the request OF Attorney Alexander
Campbell sentence was deferred till the
other dive cases, which had been trans
ferred to Judge Campbells court, were
disposed of.
Attorney Campbell intimated that he
would probably file affidavits asking for
another change of venue on the ground of
bias on the part of the Judge. He said
the Judge had stated from the bench that
if the divekeepers pleaded guilty he would
make the sentences light, but if not he
would make the fines $50 heavier.

court, )" said the Judge, land commit per-
jury by swearing that | am biased. So

Attorney Campbell said his object was
to have the cases taken before the Supreme
Court so that decision could be rendered
without unnecessary delay.

CONSUL ARTsIMovITCH TALKS
AFTER HIS RETURN FROM
ST. PETERSBURG.

Vladimir Artsimovitch Consul-General
of Russia on this coast, returned from st.
Petersburg few days ago. He is staying
at the Pacific Union Climb. The Consul had
an interesting voyage on the return jour-
ney by way of New York and Panama. The
journey was broken in New York by a stay
of two weeks, and after arriving here Con-
sui Artsimovitch was detained on the
quarantined steamer City of Sydney.
Regarding matters of state, or in fact,
Russian national affairs, he has been very
reticent since his return, although he
speaks freely enough of the first good
deeds of the young Gar.
II suppose" said he at his club last
evening, ''the public has been informed of
all matters OF general Importance that
have taken place in st. Petersburg. The
Emperor has announced his intention OF
carrying out the policy of his father, which
shows there will be no change in this
respect.
"He issued a ukase in January that has
been very favorably received by the press
at home. 1t was addressed to the Min
lister OF Finance, instructing him to appro-
pirate $4,000 rubles a year to the widows
and orphans of savants, literary men and
journalists. The money is given to the
Academy of Sciences in st. Petersburg fol-
distribution among those for whom it is
intended. The press has commended the
Emperor very highly over his ukase.'
The Consul was asked if any changes
would be made in affairs of the Russo
| Greek Church on the Pacific coast.
81 don't know if there will be any
changes" he answered. THAT rests en-
tirely with the Holy Synod, which takes a
deep interest in the Russian Church in
America. The Emperor is also deeply in
terested in the church's welfare here. Quite

tablish two churches in Eastern cities, one
