A young woman with something more

within the portals Of the Church club

American Prisoner Escapes and
Safely Reaches Home.

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 2S.-Jofn FL
lis Olsen, who says he was the only
American prisoner ever confined at that
most dreaded Of Russian prisons, Sag
halien island, off the Siberian coast,
and who made his escape from that
place OF confinement about year ago,
after encountering many adventures
and yicissitudes is once more back in
his home in this city, which he left in
1891.
Olsen ds a SON Of August Olsen, who
in early days kept a hotel. He was
born in Detroit, Mich, about 80 years
ago, and when a boy, came to this city
disposition, he shipped out of this port
on sealing schooner in 1891, and made
two or three trips from Yokohama,
with the seal hunters. He finally
joined an expedition to Copper island,
but on arrival at Vladivostock, got
drunk and upon recovering from the
effects Of his debauch. found himself
in prison under the suspicion Of being
a spy or an anarchist.
He was detained in this prison, and
during that time was unable to make
known his Identity, he says, for the
reasons that none Of the officers of
the prison could speak English. AT the
end of five days, he says, he was placed
on a steamer and sent to SaghalicM

other prisoners, building q fort. The
prisoners worked in squads Of ten,
each squad being in charge Of a SOL
der guard, and from the size and ap-
pearance Of the fort, it was intended
simply as an object to keep the pris-
OnerS at work.
He was subsequently allowed the
freedom Of the island on parole, but
each Of his efforts to smuggle letters to
his friends were frustrated. He ulti-
mately arranged with the captain of
a Japanese fishing junk to transport
him and was packed in a cask among
a cargo Of salmon and reached Hako-
date in safety. Thence he went to
Yokohama as stowaway in steamer.
From Yokohama, he says he went to
Port Said and from there shipped as q
sailor on vessel bound for Newport,
r. /. The captain Of the vessel inter-
ested himself in a young sailor and Sc
cured him half rate railway ticket
to ST. Louis. From that city he
tramped and rode brake beams to San
Francisco, arriving at that point, two
weeks ago, five years from the time
Of his departure.
Olsen has not been able to find any
of his relatives since his arrival. He
is endeavoring to get the authorities
to take some action in his case, with O
view to causing the Russian govern
ment to indemnify him for his i'm
prisonment.

Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles
Quickly, PainleEsly, Without
Danger.

People go along for years suffering
with piles. They try this and that and
the other thing; from carrying buck
eye to getting treatment from a physi-
clan. They obtain temporary relief,
maybe, but they are never quite cured.
A little strain in lifting, excessive fati-
gue,S a little constipation or little
diarrhoea and the piles come back.
They don't seem to amount to much,
but they Danish sleep and appetite. No
position Is comfortable. There is in
tense local pain and that dreadful feel
ing of weight in the perineun.
Maybe in the early stages some of
the many salves on sale will afford
temporary relief. If the case Is of long
standing there is only one speedy and
sure remedy. 1t is Pyramid Pile Cure.
Even in light cases it is the safest thing
to use Other applications may cure
and may not. Pyramid Cure is always
certain, always reliable, always brings
comfort at once. It's prompt use saves
months of severe suffering. In ex-
IRENE cases it will save surgical opera
lions and their attendant dangers and
discomforts. 1t is better than knife.
Will cure easier, quicker and safer.
Thousands have used It. Thousands
have been cured by It. The cost Is trifl-
ing compared with what 1t does The
price is 80 cents. Most anybody would
gladly pay ten dollars to be rid Of piles.
Druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure. If
yours hasn't 1t ne will get it for you

TAX ON BEER,
1t Is the Democratic Idea Of In
creasing the Revenue.


creasing the Revenue.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Ex-senator
Sherman, chairman of the Republican
caucus, said today that no doubt there
would be a caucus called as soon as
congress convened to ascertain the
wishes of Republican senators as to a
course Of procedure and to adjust, If
possible, differences Of opinion. He
said the deficiency in revenue ought to
be ren1edied as soon as possible.
Senator Harris, a Democratic men,
Der of the finance committee, said that
he would resist by every legitimate
means any measure calculated to in
crease the tariff. He added that If
more revenue was needed, 1T could be
easily secured by the increase Of the
tax on beer.
Senator Pugh, Of Alabama, predicted
that there will be no tariff legislation
at this session, and added, that he will
vote for increasing the tax on beer.
The senator was asked concerning
Cuba, and expressed his sympathy with
the island but said he did not favor
any action by the United States which
would involve the country in war. This
is directly opposite from the position
of his colleague, Senator Morgan, who
believes that recognition Of Cuba would
mean war with Spain, but favors 1t
nevertheless.
Representative Catchings, Of Mtss1s-
sippi, says there will be no tariff ieg1s-
lation at the short session, nor an add1-
tional tax imposed on beer. The Re
publicans, he says, will raise more rev.
enue by increased tariff duties.

Mrs. Conner is widow with one child.
She was born in Pine Level, Ala, prob
ably about twenty-four years ago. She
talks like Southern woman and the
accent lends charm to her voice. She
does not pretend to have much of an
education and confessed frankly in the
church club when she went there to
get her doctrinal standing passed on
that she did not know the meaning Of
the word heterodox. There are many
people who are just now trying to
study 9nt how Mrs. Conner accomplish
ed what She certainly did accomplish in
the healing line while she was in Chi
cago. If someone can find out and
tell the rest of the world just what 1t
is the subject-matter will make mighty
interesting reading and may be of adj
vantage to many young doctor in his

who had pronounced me but a few
hours before incurable. They were as

that I was as well a woman as there
was in the land. The external evil
