PRISONER Condemned to Death.
San Francisco Examiner.
The remarkable case of a patient in the
San Pablo hospital is attracting attention all
over the world The man condemned to
death some weeks ago in the state of GUIANA
juato for stealing large can of kerosene OIL
Why severe penalty was imposed for so
trihng an offense is not stated When the
day of execution arrived he was led out into
the suburbs and placed before q brick wall.
A squad of state troops stationed a few
PAGES off. At the word "Fire!" they poured
volley into the poor unfortunate. Then
two soldiers advanced until they were stand

He turned his face towards this city and
tramped on and on through his long journey
until he reached the capital. Here he was
admitted to the San Pablo hospital, where he
finally told his story.
The narrative was corroborated by three
rifle bullets In his body and by pistol bullet
IN the skull. It was furthern substantiated by
claim made by the authorities of GUIANA
Juato to have their ex-prisoners restored to
them, that they might make another effort
to vindicate the dignity of the law. The pris-

BISMARCK, N. D., Feb. S.-The su-
preme court late this afternoon filed
it's decision in the jamestown asylum
case, which was argued before it Mon
day last. The decision is that the per-
emptory writ of mandamus shall issue.
The case was brought to determine as
to the right to possession of the asy-
lum; whether it was in custody of DR..
Archibald, who was removed by q r,a-
jority of~ss,a board of trustees at a spe-
cial meeting, or of DR.. Moore, who was
installed as superintendent at the same
meeting. To determine this a writ of
mandamus and quo warranto was is
sued by the supreme court, returnable
on Monday last, when 1t was argued
before the court. Three motions were
made by the attorneys for Dr.Archibald
looking to the dismissal Of the case
for lack Of jurisdiction. The supreme
court denied these motions and or
dered peremptory writ of mandamus
to issue. This removes DR.. Archibald
from the control of the institution,
and installs DR.. Moore in accordance
with the action of the majority of the
trustees.

One Of the most noted physicians
and surgeons is DR.. Job Sweet, of New
Bedford, Mass. He makes the public
statement that he has often recon-
mended the use of DR.. Greene's Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy to his
patients who have been suffering from
nervous troubles and he has learned
that in large number of these cases
1t has proven efficacious.
DR.. Willard H. Morse, F. B. S. &c.,
of Westfield, N. j., the great expert on
medicines, says of this grand discov-
cry of DR.. Greene:
The true remedy for nervous dis
eases is DR.. Greenes Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. 1t acts by affect
ing the organs of nutrition and enter
ing into the formation of new nerve
tissue, which generates nerve force
This means the making of new nerves."
The well-known DR.. Emil Neumer,
experimenting physician of the N Y
Lodge and Association Hospital, says:
We are using DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy at this hos
pital for our patients with good sue

Many physicians, according to lee
turer on diatetics, are ordering thin
bread and butter for delicate patients,
especially those suffering from dyspep-
ia, consumption and anaemia, or any
who need TO take flesh. This thin bread
and butter insensibly induces persons
to eat much more butter than they have
any idea of. 1t is extraordinary, says
the lecturer, how short a way a fresh
pat of butter will go if spread on num-
Der of thin slices of bread. This is one
advantage, and great one in the feed
ing of invalids, for they are thereby pro-
vided with an excellent form of the fat
which is so essential for their nutrition
in way that lures them to take it with
out rebellion. But the thin bread and
butter has another advantage equally
as great--it is very digestible and east
ly assimilated. Fresh butter made from
cream is very much more digestible
when spread upon thin slices of bread
than the same amount of cream eaten
as cream per sc would be.-Chicago

HAY FEVER REMEDY.
Rubbing the Ears Vigorously Sometimes
Brings Relief,

The capriciousness of hay fever and
the occasional relief obtained from an
entirely empirical method of treatment
warrant the publication of any means
which has proved successful, in the
hope that il may be Of use to some other
person afflicted with this annoying dis
ease.
Feber, of Hamburg, reports his own
case, which has been SO severe as to
necessitate his using closed carriage
all through the summer. His RELIEF
was brought about from accidentally
noticing that in the winter q coryZ;t
was usually accompanied with hot ears,
which regained their normal tempera-
ture when the discharge from the nose
was established. He determined TO try
a reversed order of effect on the hay
fever in the summer, and began, &C
cordingly, to rub his ears until they
became red and hot.
1t is now the third year that he has
been able to lead an endu1able existence
during hay fever season. He says:
'As soon as the least sensation Of full

the ears. A thorough rubbing of the
ears, at times even to confusion, has
always succeeded in freeing the nasal
mucous membrane from its congestion.
The rubbing, however, must be thor

symptom of congestion returns to the

or pass an evening in my garden with

SERMON ON TEMPERANCE:
Subject Discussed from q Worldly Stand
point by an Eminent Divine.


Rev. Jenkins Lloyd Jones preached
his annual temperance sermon the 9TH
er morning in Oakland music hall, Chi
cago, and devoted it to the work of the
Citizens League for the Suppression of
the Sale of Liquor to Minors. One ex-
cerpt from his address is appended:
"Of 4,663 cases at the Fort Hamilton
inebriate asylum, in New York, 3,165
were born in the United States. Of the
600 inebriates at this same institution,
studied at another time, only 80 could
be considered illiterate; 341 of them
had passed through the American com
mon schools and 112 had received 4 col
lege training. These facts point to
a moral detection. The moral sense is
weak, made so by the complacency of an
easy optimism that regards the drink
habit as q harmless social indulgence,
capable of injuring only the supposed
few who cannot withstand tempta-
tion,' or, as the smart young man says,
as he lifts his beer mug with an I'M
steady hand, or drains his wine glass
with a flushed face, those who do not
know enough to take care of them
selves Is he taking care of himselfp
Granted, for arguments sake, that he
will never need to be helped home, much
less will the heavy hand of the police
man ever be laid upon his shoulder or
the cell of the police court ever know
him, still he is flying in the face of the
coolest science that you can take coun-
sci Of
There is but one conclusion among
economists, physicians, men of science
and men of morals concerning the use
of alcoholic drinks as a beverage, and
that is that it is a waste of money, a
strain on the body, menace to the NOR
ais of any man or woman who INDUCES
therein. Rule out of court if you will
every man with a suspicion of fanati-
cism in his attitude toward this ques-
ton, dismiss every teetotaler and every
prohibitionist, suspect every preacher
and every teacher of morals in the
land, ask only the best balanced brains
to be found among the judicial, cduca-
tional and industrial leaders of our
land, and the verdict is practically
unanimous that alcoholic drinks, from
beer to absinthe, as a regular beverage,
is unnecessary to the healthy, and, eX-
cept under medical prescription, to the
sick.
III the physiological apology fails
there are those who still cling TO the
sociological justification. 1t helps
along good fellowship. 1t is a vehicle
of merriment. 1t makes life less grim
and enables one to come into closer
contact with his fellow man. To state
this argument is to refute it. Are the
resources of life, the conditions of COM
radeship, the vehicles of thought, de-
pendent on such a treacherous medium
as that which debauches its millions
annually, Brings thousands into sui
eide graves, makes fools of the wise
and leads the virtuous into crime and
