thought that If Christ came to Los An
geles his first duty would be to look after
the ministers.
Rev. DR.. c. c. Mclean put in few
words, and for a time there was war
true and earnest, by the side of which
the little caucuses John Vaughn holds
down in the Fourth ward are pleasant
pink teas.
The result of it all was that the Glass
resolution was defeated by vote of Is
to 49,
Then this was reconsidered and mo-
ti6n to appoint committee of five to
investigate Chief Glass and report was
ordered appointed.
This report will be made at the next
meeting. And this closed session of
the local ministers which was memora-
BILE.
After the meeting committee of the
ministers called on Chief Glass at his
Office, when another stormy session last
ing an hour or two followed. 1t is not
known Just what transpired in the
chiefs Office, but it is said the chief stood
on his dignity and fatty refused to re-
ceive any committee of which Rev. Mr.
Wilson or Rev. Mr.. Knighten were men,
bers, claiming that they had always
been enemies of his and were trying to
injure him. No result was reached, but
it is probable that more will be heard at
the next meeting of the union, as the
ministers say that they are determined
to force the issue

The Dreaded Consumption
Can Be Cured
T. A. Slocum, N. D., the Great Chemist and
Scientist, Offers to Send Free, to the
Afflicted Three Bottles Of His Newly Dis
covered Remedies to Cure Consumption
and All Lung Troubles

Nothing could be fairer, more philan-
thropic or carry more joy in its wake
than the offer of T. A. Slocum, M. c., of
1873 Pearl street, New York City.
Confident that he has discovered an
absolute cure for consumption and all
pulmonary complaints. and to make its
great merits known, he will send, free,
three bottles to any reader of The Her.
aid who is suffering from chest bron
chial, throat and lung troubles or con-
sumption.
Already this new scientific course of
medicine" has permanently cured thou
sands of apparently hopeless cases.
The Doctor considers it his religious
duty-a duty which he owes to humani-
ty-to donate his infallible cure.
Offered freely, apart from it's inherent
strength, is enough to commend it, and
more so is the perfect confidence of the
great chemist making the proposition.
He has proved consumption to be a
durable disease beyond any doubt.
There will be no mistake in sending
the mistake will be in overlooking the
generous invitation. He has on file in
his American and European laboratories
testimonials of experience from those
cured. in all parts of the world.
Delays are dangerous. Address L. A.
