he VOUCHED FOR IT.
Mr.. Jsccard Stands by His Letter
Published in the Sunday Papers.

When one reads in the papers from day
to day of the wonderful cures that are
claimed to have been made by some one
of the many advertised remedies it arouses
a feeling of ircredulity for we know that
if these many "cure-alls'' would do one
tenth OF what is claimed for them they
would in time throw the regular practi-
tiorer out of a job-then there would be
no more use for him.
1t is amusing sometimes to read of some
respectable, and often very well-krown
man, who permits his name, and may be
his portrait, to be used to boom a remedy
which is said to have cured him of a life
long disease. The other day there was
printed in the San Francisco morning
papers a double-column advertisement
with picture of well-known jeweler of
San Leandro, and letter purporting to
be from the said ieweler describing his
wonderful cure of weakness and vari-
cocele of twenty-six years standing by an
electric belt.
Such stories have appeared so fire.
quently of late, given out by this same
electric belt firm, making wonderful
claims for their article, that, to satisfy
himself as to their truth, a Bulletin re-
The San Francisco call., 1896-06-21

writes the glad battle-cry of the people
Protection to American industries'
w. &. Henderson followed with an elo-
quent encomium upon the champion of
protection. He pledged the loyalty OF the
negro to the party that had freed him
from slavery.
A. E. Branch in an enthusiastic speech
predicted the overwhelming success of the
grand old party next November
Ex-Assem blyman Frank Powers called
up the memory of James G. Blaine as a
companion picture for William Mckinley.
Chairman Perkins introduced Edward
Sweeney, who convulsed the audience
with skillfully rendered Irish dialect ac-
count of Mckinley taking possession of
the White House. After the laughter had
subsidized Colonel Roberts was introduced
by the chairman.
Colonel Roberts began with humor-
Gus anecdote of a little girl who had been
sick. She had been fed on broth and
other so-called nourishing foods, he said,
until she was tired, and finally fatty re-
fused to take any more nourishment.
II am sick of nourishmene, and 1 want
some food" she said.
$50 it IS with US. We are tired of nour-
ishment as it Is administered to us by
Cleveland, and want some food. Next
November we will get it,"
The meeting broke up with a rousing
three cheers for Mckinley and the Repub-
lican party.

that did not know but my life was be ng
threatened. The paper was rolled up and
there was nothing about it to Indicate to
me that it was legal document.
81 of course threw the paper on the floor
In my excitement. After he had showed
the paper at me he exclaimed: You are
Mrs. Craven. l know. YOU
AZ said: Il am not Mrs. Craven under
the impulse of the moment, as feared he
was meditating harm against me. L have
had some queer experiences or late, and
they have tended to make me nervous aud
fearsome of strangers"
Mrs. Craven, when asked what she pro-
posed to do in regard to answering the
subpoena, SAID
81 have rot seen anv subpoena and do
not know that | have been served with
one. do not know what all the trouble
is about and | do not propose to find out,
either. Let them come here and serve me
properly. l am not running away"
'"Have you any oblectloh TO giving
history OF those deeds so 1ar rs you know
it?" was asked.
THAT is something my attorneys have
instructed me not to talk about, replied
Mrs. Craven.
Have you ever collected or attempted
to collect the rents from the tenants OF the
properties mentioned in the two deeds2"
mo, sir.''
"Why?"
THAT is q matter my attorneys, Short
ridge & Delmas, have said l was to say
nothing about. All the rent OF those prop
critics for nearly twenty-one months is
now due me, which l can collect ana
which l will. This is no surprise to the
Fair attorneys. They have known OF TINS
from the very beginning of the Far case
II want to say this further: The reason
that the deeds were not left at the Record
er's office was not that | was afraid OF the
genuneness of them, but L did not want
to take any chances OF having them stolen
or mutilatcd. l wanted to have them kept
where they could be produced at any time.
l am willing to let any unbiased and prop
erly qualified person see them and Judge
OF them"
She concluded by saying: 'I don't
know where they are at the present time,
and l don't want to know. l have no
papers of any kind connected with the
Fair case now in my possession.
shall you appear in court, as ordered IN
the subpoena ?" was then asked.
81 shall act according to the instruc-
tioIs OF my attorneys. But l have no OBJ
jections to appearing at any time, even
without being subpenaed."
Another version of the service of the
subpoena is given by the gentleman who
performed that task. He alleges that no
began reading the original to Mrs. Craven
when she attempted TO walk away. He
then placed copy of it under Mrs. Cra-
ven's arm, saying: II know you; you are
Mrs. Craven"
He alleges that Mrs. Craven denied her
identity, threw the subpoena on the floor,
and that then Miss Craven threatened to
call the police and have him arrested.
The disowned subpoena is now in possess
sion of Mr.. Wilbur, the owner of the news
stand, who says he will not surrender 1t to
any one but the lady who dropped it
meaning Mrs. Craven. Mrs. Craven,
when informed of this, says she did not
lose it and has no longing for its possession.

claim ratifying the nomination of McKin-
ley and Hobart whose names stand for
protection and prosperity.
Protection means Mckinley and Nc
Kinley means protection. Protection
means prosperity; it means the elevation
of labor; the revival of American indus
tries; the stimulation Of American COM
merce; the enforcement of the Monroe
doctrine; reciprocity with the Latin
American Union the upbuilding, the ce-
menting and the preservation in America
of higher, broader. purer, stronger and
more enlightened civilization than the
world can elsewhere know.
The nation that by wise enactment pro-
vides for the employment OF its labor can
raise larger army of better men than it
is possible for any country whose labor is
less employed.
Protection shall have sway. The people
demand it; the country requires it. The
supreme hour for its adoption is at hand.
Behold the fiagl 1t represents the hope of
the world. 1t guarantees to all liberty
as sweet and sure as the very air which it
redeems by its presence. Look upon its
gorgeous stripes-its royal field of blue
its glittering stars.
Do you not see picture there? No?
Look again. for I see it clearly; see a
man writing. He is writing with a pen
formed OF the quill of an American eagle,
shot from its pinions as it took it's course
through the fields of light toward the sun.
AS he writes his brain is inspired by
eternal truth, and his heart is fortified by
the supreme courage of conviction. What
is he writing? He is writing the great
magma charta of liberty. Look closely. /
can see the words-I read, when in the
course of human events
/ see another man writing. He is
writing the liberation of the industrial
classes OF America. He hears the shouts
OF the millions as they cheer him on in
his great battle for the enfranchisement
OF American labor. Strong, vigorous,
active, valiant, patriotic and firm. he

Many had wives or lady friends with
them who applauded the musical and ora
torical efforts enthusiastically.
Particularly pleasing to the audience
seemed to be the "Bill McKinley's Bill"
song that was rendered by quartet con-
sisting of D. NJ. Lawrence and R. P. Evans,
tenors, and D. 3. Crsne and L. A. Larsen,
bassos. The last stanza and chorus ran as
follows:
Labor is king by right divine, and shall herea fter
rule;
The workman knows the ballot is his most ef-
fectve tool.
And he will cast it gladly the Golden Club to kill,
He knows his only weapon is Bill McKfnley's
bill.
CHORUS

Club was strictly in evidence, being rep
resented by Addie L. Ballou, Mrs. Emma
Gregory and other prominent members.

Pavilion.

Miss Anthony was greeted with q great
burst of applause.
"It was left for the Republican party to
sweep away the race line that violated re-
publican principles, and now it has been
again left to the Republican party to sweep
away the sex line," she said. ''And it has
remained for Columbia's fairest daughter,
California, to take the greatest step in this
grand movement for the enfran chisement
OF woman.
81 come here as a representative of the
women of California, the Native Daugh-
ters of the glorious Golden State. The
very fact that your State Central Com
mittee has invited woman to speak from
this platform shows that the party is in
earnest in its endeavors to give equal
rights to all, irrespective of race or sex"
After Miss Anthony had finished, julius
Kahn denounced, in ringing terms Demo
cratic misrue and the much-promised
Democratic Campaign of education"
Mr.. Kahn was followed by Judge
Cooney, who attacked vigorously the cul-
pable mistakes in the Democratic finan-
cial policy and paid a glowing tribute to
the Republican candidate.
Colonel Eddy, president of the Phoenix
Republican Club followed with rousing
grafton, in which he said that if McKin-
ley is a poor man it is because he has
chosen to be honest, and that as sure as
the sun will rise and set on the 7th OF
November next the news will come from
the North, the East, the South and the
West that Mckinley is elected to the
highest Office in the gift of the Nation.
The Knickerbocker Quartet rendered
''We'll Vote for the Boy of the Buckeye
State" which had been composed for the
occasion by Major C. w. Kyle. Major
Kyle followed the song with the following
stirring words:
''The thought of the hour is Mckinley

porter took the matter in hand and hunted
up the jeweler for the purpose of seeing
what there was in it.
The gentleman, whose anne is Jaccard,
was found in his store at San Leandro,
and when approached on the subject OF
his cure by the electric belt game out
from behind the counter and stood be-
fore his questioner in an attitude which
showed q remarkable development of
manly physique. He looked like a Hercu-
les and would be the last man i'll a thou
sand to be picked out as fit subject for an
electric treatment. He was right to the
point when the object of his visitors
presence was made known. His remarks
left no doubt in the reporters mind as
to the value of electricity as curative
agent.
You see me now,'' said Mr.. Jaccard;
"do l look like sick man2 tell you
am different from what was TWO years
ago. 1 did use the DR.. Sanden Electric
BELT, and believe that it has saved me
from q lot of misery. For twenty-slx
years / was bothered with one OF the worst
forms of varicocele. | was weak. 1t was
simply draining my life from me. L tried
lots OF treatments. The quacks grew rich
on me, but did not help me. got this
Sanden Belt in 1894, and used 1t for seven
months. At first did not notice much
good from it, but after | had used il two
months the varicocele seemed to vanish
like magic, and was born again-a new
man. l have been growing stronger every
day since, and you will find very few men
at so who are more powerful. Yes, there
other treatments, but l believe in getting
the best when | am doctoring myself, and
| know DIR. Sanden's Electric Belt is the
greatest invention for sick people"
Mr. Jaccard said a great deal more in
favor of DR.. Sanden's Belt, and men,
toned the names of several other San
Leandro citizens who had enjoyed bene-
fits from its use. He left no doubt in the
mind of the visitor that the value of this
remedy is too lightly appreciated by peo-
pie who need it. When questioned as to
whether DR.. Sanden's Belt did as much as
was claimed for it he said: Eyes. sir, and
ten times more than they claim You have
only to try it to feel yourself new man in
mind and body"
Mr.. Jaccard is so wears of age, weighs
2l0 pounds and measures feet inches
HIS chest measurement Is 40 and his waist
3S inches.-Copied from the Bulletin of
