Having met with the highest sue
cess in the manufacture and sale of
the excellent liquid laxative remedy,
Syrup of Figs, 1t has become import
ant to all to have knowledge of the
Company and it, products. The
great value OF the remedy as medi-
cinal agent, and of the Company's
efforts, is attested 10y the sale of
millions Of bottles annually and by
the high approval of most eminent
physicians.
The California Fig Syrup Co. was
organized more than twelve years
ago, for the special purpose Of
manufacturing and selling a laxative
remedy. which would be moie
pleasapt to the taste and more benz
fetal in its effects than any other
known, In the process Of mpnu'act-
uring, hgs are used, as they are
pleasant TO the taste, and healthfui
in their tendencies, but the medicinal
properties of the remedy are obtained
from an excellent combination OF
plants known to be medic inaNly lax
alive, and to act most benei cially.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then
laxative or other remedies ar not
needed. If afflicted with any actual
disease one may be commended to
the most skillful physicians, but if
in need of laxative, then one
should have the best and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most
largely used and gives most general
satisfaction.

DIFFERENT REASONS GIVEN.
Experts Can't Agree Upon the Cause
OF Last Nights Explosion.

The United States Electric Lighting Com
pany- has workmen busy In.s morning re-
pairing the pavement torn up by an eN-
plosion OF gas near the Treasury building

Fer the present the street is blocked
just south OF the Georgetown transfer she'd
for distance OF forty feet, as the two holes
made by the explosion are about that dis
tance apart, Ropes are stretched To pre-
vent passengers from going that way
The question what caused the explo-
sion is answered differently ut the Light
Ing Coinpany's office. and the engineers
office in the District building. TIE Dis
trict officials declare that the substance
that exploded WIS illuminating gas, while
the Lighting Company men insist that 1t was
sewer gas. The workfnen who were ON
the ground soon after the explosion oc-
Cured, state that there was a plain smell
of sewer gas.
The foreman of the men engaged in the
repairs declared that there was no quess

Status OF Opponents of Bryan and Sc

An Important question that will en-

CARDS the national Der ocratic committee.

nee. One of these is r. w LawIer of
Minnesota. and already inquiries have come
from Democrats Of that State whether it
is not in the province of the national Demo-
cratic committee TO declare that q vacancy
exists in the committee from Minnesota.
The Bryan democrats take the ground
that when national committeeman tolts
the party nominee. by his own act. he takes
himself outside the poll OF the party. and
the party of the State, or the national
Democratic committee, has the rower to
fill the place of the offending member by
appointing some Democrat from the State

One among the N ost important of Wash

The Commissioners have made repeated

1t is Claimed, also, that even if the creek

sewage into tie river, the scene ST tie
nuisance would lie merely transferred to
tie river front. The ebb and flow OF tie
tides would keep the filth at the shores in
sufficient quantities to infect the atmos-
pierre with its foul stencil.
The understanding is that at tie com NJ
