Catarrh is a constitutional disease and
requires a constitutional remedy like
Hoods Sarsaparilla, which purifies the
blood and thus thoroughly ersdicates
from the system all the poisonous taints
which cause catarrh. II is folly to try
TO cure catarrh by the use Of snuffs or
other local applications. These remedies

WAS ROBBED IN A SALOON
N. DierS, a Saloon.Keeper, Vic.
timiZed by an Attractive
Woman.
While Asleep His Watch and Chain,
Diamond Pin, Money and Hat
Were Stolen.

n. Diers, saloon-keeper at Fifth and
Folsom streets, reported at police head
quarters Yesterday morning that he had
been robbed of his valuable gold watch
and chain, diamond pin valued at $50 and
So in silver by woman.
Late Tuesday night be said he went into
Carr's saloon, on McAllister and Larkin
streets, and was having drink, when an
attractive woman came up to him and the
bartender introduced her TO him. He did
lot RENE mber her name.
He treated her to several drinks. He
drank so much that he fell asleep and did
not awaken till yesterday morning.
He found his watch and chain, diamond
pin and money gone. Not only that, but
his new hat had disappeared and an old
one had been substituted for it.
He was firmly convinced that the woman
robbed him as soon as he fell asleep, but
he is puzzled to know who could have
stolen his hat. He feels sure he could
identify the woman again. He could not
get any satisfaction from the saloon peo-
pie and accordingly made his complaint to
the police.
Diers will swear out warrant for the
woman's arrest this morning, and mean
time Policeman Buckley has been detailed
to make thorough investigation.

CONTEST IN THE FIFTH.
MIR. Higgins Made a Protest, but
Was Mistaken as to- .
His Facts. .@:....
THE CASE IS Concluded.
On Next Saturday Morning the Com.
mittee Will Decide all the
Contests. s..@ .::;:~s ~; e..
THE CASE IS CONCLUDED.

The Congressional Committee of the
Fifth District continued its investigation
yesterday morning into the Thirty-seventh
Assembly District primary election squab-
BILE.
The committee met in the office OF John
E. Richards in the Crocker building,
James w. Rea in the chair. and John Z.
Richards, Robert ToplitZ, Al Stetson and
James Alva Watt present.
Judge Marcus j. Waldheimer appeared
for the contestants and Ed Donnelly as
sisted him.
The first witness called was aman whom
none of the committee knew, and who was
introduced as Frank T. Donavan. Mr..
Donovan told the committee that he did
not vote at the primaries, yet there ap-
peared on the poll-lists the name of '.F. T.
Donovan, 610 Hayes street" At the lime
of the primaries the witness lived at 397
Hayes street. He now lives at 616H La
guna.
The committee were of the opinion that
Mr.. Donavan's statement proved nothing,
because there might have been an T. T,
Donovan in the City other than than
the Frank I. Donavan who appeared be-
fore the committee.
John Higgins of 800 Oak street voted at
the primaries, and he objected to the
entry on the poll-lists OF the name OF
| J. Higgins, 10 Oak street. He did not be-
| lieve there was such person. The COM
! nittee showed Mr.. Higgins his mistake
! by exhibiting his name and residence on
| the poll-lst and also the name and resi-.
dence of ]. Higgins OF 10 Oak street on the
! poll-list and the great register. ~.
T. A. W. Johnson voted at the primary
hr1t nOi1l6 I0n find hiS ha
list. Instead there was the name o1
"a. w. Meyer" Mr.. johnson saw his
ballot put into the box. :.T s
"Then it was counted, !" said Chairman
Rea, land you have not suffered any," y.
/ You would drop this contest" asked
/ Mr.. Rea of Judge Waldheimer, "if you
found that there were not fraudulent
| votes enough to reverse this election?'
If We can get fifty respecta bic, ,.respon-
sible citizens and business men, replied
the Judge, ''who will swear that they
didn't vote at the primaries, but that thei
names are on the poll-lists we Will asl
that the election be reversed"
"Under that protest" said Mr.. Rea
"Jim Budd could not have been seated.
This was all the evidence except the aft
davits OF five citizens who swore that wheI
they presented themselves at the poll
their ballots were refused, because, as the,
were informed by the election officers
some one else had voted in their names.
Judge Waldheimer made little speecl
with the fire of eloquence in his eye ant
his plug hat in his hand. He remarked
that fraud is the creation of superio
minds and that the detection of fraud j
the product of an abler mind, He had n,
doubt that the committee would decid
the matter fairly. ..s; ss:ss.
After having received permission tt
copy the poll-lists the contestants with
drew. The committee went into secre
session, and at the end of half hour a n
nounced that they would render de
cision at IL AN. next Saturday.

The Sunday afternoon lectures of DR.. Nor
gan at Scottish Hall are said to promise early
results 1t was announced last Sunday that q
plan was already on foot looking toward the
organization OF an Evangelical League in this
City. 1t was explained that this would not
necessarily initiate against the existing rela-
tions of any person belonging to any Evangeli-
cal churchi There are large portions OF Scrip
ture embraced in the writings of the ancient
prophets which are seldom never discussed
in the pulpits. And it is to recover and propa-
gate this portion of the Bible that the league is
proposed DR.. Morgan is expected TO speak of
the "Seven Apocalyptic Seals" next Sunday,
when notice win be given as TO what measures
will be necessary to complete the organization

tion of the State Board of Harbor Com
missioners to erect a separate building for
the convenience OF the postal service on
the site at the ferries now occupied by The
baegage-room of the Southern Pacific Com
pany.
This new scheme will virtually dispense
with the usefulness of the new postofice
and United States Court building, which
the Government proposes to erect on the
site. purchased for the purpose, at the
corner OF Mission and Seventh streets. 1t
will be used, however, as sn administra-
tion building and as a general delivery.
Anyway, the scheme is to centralize the
working forces of the postal department
at the water front.
The main Postoffice will then be used
solely as general delivery, and at the
pace the Government architect is proceed
ing with the plans, according to reports
from Washington, there is some doubts
about the time when work will be actually
begun on the new building. 1t may be
commenced in the lifetime of the young
est inhabitant and it may never be COM
menced-
Meanwhile the new Postoffice at the fer
ries will be built. The idea is 10 central
ize the business of the Postoffice at the
water front. How this method vii! sue
ceed remains to be seen. Thus far it is
only an experiment.
This contem plated innovation is the re-
suit of the streetcar postal system intro
duced at Boston, Philadelphia, New York
and other large cities, and in the course of
human affairs is expected to become a
Oerp, aneOcy in San Francesca
his is the reason why the postal author
lies are anxious for the erection Of a sep
arate postofiice at the water front, and al
ready plans have been completed for the
building. It will be two stories in height
and viii be paviIion-like in its interior ar
rangemeEt. The second story Will have 4
gallery encircling the entire building, and
there will be large skYlight in the center
OF the structure which will be sufficiently
large to Accommodate the entire working
forces of the Postofiice.
a money order department stamp win
dow and general delivery will also be
maintained at this branch, which will in
every way serve the purposes of central
Office. and in the course OF time it is
hoped the public will become so accus-
toned to the ferry postoffice that no other
will be required.
According to the new streetcar postal
receiving and delivering system, which
has met with the encouragement of the
Postal Department at Washington, the
mail, streetcars will receive and deliver
the entire mail OF the City, and as all the
streetcar lines terminate at the ferries it is
thought that San Fraucisco will be much
better served by the new system.

Jacob Ganib Is Arrested for
Stealing 1t.


Mrs. Geary of 208 Jones street and lady
friend were standing at Ellis and Market
streets last night watching the parade of
the Salvation Army when she felt some
one abstracting her purse, containing $40,

round and noticed a man, who SUNK
away. She searched for policeman, but
could not find one, and then she and her
friend hurried to police headquarters and
reported the theft. :
Detectives Graham and Gillen were
detailed on the case and in less than. half
an hour they arrested Jacob Ganib and
took bim to Mrs. Geary's house. She at
once identified him as the man who had
been standing beside her. He was taken
to the City Prison and booked on the
charge of grand larceny. Mrs. Geary will
swear out a warrant this morning. When

were found in his pockets.
