OF On q Lark.

Tomorrow evening, dressed in their
fascinating new uniforms, the Philhar-
monio band will depart for California.
The headquarters Of the organization
will be at Los Angeles, and from that
point they will visit many of the popu-
lar summer reeorts near the city.
Three or -four of the members find it i'm
possible to leave on this vacation, and
their loss will be- felt by the band. 1t is
understood that Prof. Vslderas, former
ly of this city, will JOIN the musicians
at Los Angeles, and bis assistance will
make up, in sumo measure, the lose &C.
oseiOned by the inability of those from
here, to attend.
The memtsrs OF the Philharmonic
band are, for the greater part, married
men, and of course, would, for this rea-
son, be somewhat handicapped by tho
few gay young fellows who have no
such entanglements. In order to equal
ize mattsrs. by some curious hook or
crook, and from q source, to the writer
unknown, q special dispensstion has
been obtained by which the 90 of the or
ganizaticn fettered with matrimonial
chains, will be paroled for the time OF
their visit. This dispensstion will 60
INTO effect immediately upon the depar-
ture of the train tomorrow evening.
There is no doubt at all, that with all
burdens removed, the band will have a
most enjoyable time, and Tucson does
not hesitate to place her musical reputa-
ton in the hands of the Philharmonics,
knowing full we'll that they are able to
defend it against sll corners.

This IL What he Said.

FOREST, O., Aug. l0-At Washington,
Ohio, about 100 people extended a glad
hand to Nebraska. All along the line
Judge Prentiss, of Chicago, who was
travelling with Bryan, was mistaken
for Bland. At Durbin, the chairman Of
the state central committee introduced
Bryan. At Dunkirk, Ohio, the nominee
was greeted with cheers by 500 people.
He said: Ladies and gentlemen: i
am very glad to meet you this morning
you are taking this campaign (applause)
In my judgment it is the greatest and
most important campaign the people
of this country have been called upon
to wage in many years, and what l can
ask of you is that you each study THE
money question for yourselves and
when you have made up your mind
what's right, then do what you think
best"
SAN Francisco, Aug, 9-Mrs. Nat
tie +. Craven today produced her much
talked-of marriage contract with the
late James G. Far. Mrs. Craven was too
i'll to 90 into court and her deposition
was taken at her home. The marriage
contract is in her andwriting, aud has
no witnesses or any notarisl seal. Mrs.
Craven says the notarial seal was pur-
poseIy withheld to avoid Publicity. The
marriage contract reads as follows:

contract did not bear notarial seal,
Senator Fair had acknowledged the con-
tract before Notary Lee ID. Craig.

ed Judge Sullivan as to its legality, and
was told the marriage was legal il re-

follows:

Most OF the ailments which are COM

to note that cycling sometimes has the
afect OF thinning the obess and fattening
the thin and this may be partly explained
by Murchlson's observations that excess

leace, is often caused by inaction of the
liver and the stimulus Of regular exercise,

causes the dis poesrance of what was

for instance. This is place of rs, 600
inhabitants, situated in the mountains
about 200 miles to the north west of the
City OF Mexico. 1t is 5000 feet above
sea level and hasn't had drop of rain
for seven years. Drinking water is not
obtainable and everybody drinks wine.
While on visit there some time ago, K.
Z. Sesrle, the famous road racer Of Chi
cage, who is now travelling agent for
the Crescent bicycles, took q ride iu and
about the city. He found the roads
only fair while the streets of the CITY
were very bad. The psstime, however,
is growing in favor, and it is believed
that ia time the use of the bicycle will
result largely in securing better roads
as has already been the case in various
sections Of this country.

Those Useful Conduits.

The kidneys and bladder, sometimes be-
come torpid and weak from uusscertein-
able causes. When this occurs, their
dischsrging function is OF necessity very
imperfectly performed, and certain de-
bris, which is the result of natural bodi-
ly waste and decay, does not escape as
it should, but remains to corrupt the
blood and develop poisonous humors
and dangerous as we'll as painful diseas-
es. 1t is one OF the benficient effects OF
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters to gently
stimulate the urinary organs, and pre-
vent them from lspsing into state of
inactivity, always provocative of their
infsn story degeneration and decay.
How much better, then, it is to adopt
this mild diuretio az a means of melting
them to action, than to incur the danger
Of this destruction. To expel from the
system waste matter through the bowels
and kidneys, and to regulate and arouse
the stomach and liver, are among the
chief uses Of this valuable remedy.

ON THE WING.

No bird of prey has the gift of song.
The smallest humming bird weighs
20 grains.
Wild birds do not sing more than
eight or ten weeks in the year.
All birds that live on seeds are fur
nished with strong gizzards.
a frigate bird can fly an entire week
without stopping to rest.
The eyes of birds that fly by night
are generally about double the size of
day birds.
The muscles of the hooking birds
larnyx are larger in proportion to the
size of the bird than those of any other
creature.
The leaders of a flock of migrating
wild geese become tired scorer than
the others, and are frequently relieved
by their fellows.
There is hen in San Francisco that
builds her home in willow tree. and
lives there like an ordinary tree-nes.-
ing bird. The fowl has all the fierce
ness of hawk and will allow no one
to approach the tree.
