Gladness Comes

MIith better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efrorts-pleasant FORTS
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms of
sickness are NOT due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to II constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
~ removes. That is why it i1 the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order TO get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
III in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most sltillful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

The preliminary hearing OF Thomas
c. Callister on the charge of criminal
libel made by George A. Henry. is
scheduled TO come off today before
Judge Sommer. The charge is that
the defendant maliciously and unlaw-
fully did write and publish of and
concerning Mr.. Henry the following;
Both of these charges 1 emphatically
deny and denounce as the quintessence
of falsehood, which could only eman-
ate from the brain of a knaVe and a
moral wreck and one who has sunk
beneath the dignity of manhood to the
extent that he would become the pub
Usher of a malicious SANDER"
A complaint is also on file in which
Mr. Henry makes a similar charge
against Attorney r. w. Tatlock. In his
case the publication of the following
concerning Henry is the basis of the
complaint: The author of that COM
munication is George A. Henry, who
is a villain, a dead beat and a drunken
tramp. You may say to your people
that he is a dead beat, drunken
tramp and a cOwardly villain, and have
it published on my authority.
These compliments arose out of po-
litical differences during the recent
campaign.
Mr. Tatlock viii probably appear for
a hearing before Justice Sommer today
also.

Victoria, B. c.. Jan. 5.-Detectives Nc
HIATT and Conroy arrived here from sgd
ney by the Miowera last night and left
at once for San Francisco. where they
expect to accomplish the arrest of Frank
Butler. alias Harwood, who is wanted, in
New South Wales for long series of
cold-blooded murders. His plan was to
lure to the gold fields prospectOrs who
had little money. shoot them and bury
their bodies, then return to the city to
again advertise for a mate" with a little
ready money to so prospecting. The
murders of Captain Lee Weller and o.
A. T. Preston have been traced directly
to Butler and he is more than suspected
of L other similar crimes in the Blue
Mountains, n. S. w, and in western
Australia. 1t has been ascertained that
under the name of Weller he hailed from
Newcastle for San Francisco, Nov. p, as
the guest of the captain on board the
ship Swennilda. She has not yet arrived
and the officers of the law are tolerably
sure of their man.

Bay City Mich. Jan. 5.-The St.
Stanislaus Polish church troubles. which
have been agitating the communicates of
that parish for more than year. broke
out afresh today, and a riot ensued, in
which one man was shot and severely
injured and several others were badly
hurt by being beaten with clubs.
The injured:
breast
Ian; James stazhinski, beaten into insensi-
clubs.
Police Officer Fitzgerald, beaten with
clubs.
CAUSED BY A REFUSAL.
, The trouble started yesterday when
Father Bogacki. the priest of the ST.
Stanlslaus parish. refused to celebrate
mass over the remains of the member of
st. Michaeis society. He also refused to
give up the banner of the society which
was in the church, and a riot was only
;averted at that time by the priest de-
Ilvering the banner to the Infatuated
Poles.
The warning faction held a meeting last
night and decided to reopen the war
Shortly after 10 o'clock this morning, a
moo began to gather about the church
and parsonage. They demanded that
Rather Bogacki and his body-guard leave
the building, which the priest refused to
age. The handful of police which had
been stationed about the house were
powerless to stop the onslaught of the
rioters. A fusilade of stones, bricks,
clubs and every handy missile was di-
rected against the house. An attempt
was made to break iii the front door,
when officer Fitzgerald, who was on duty
inside the house, it is claimed, fired at the
leader, Joseph Bartkowik, two bullets
striking him, one in the neck and the
other in the breast.
In the meantime James Stazhinski, Jo-
seph Seroki and Alex Yonkowjak, of
Father Bogacki's body-guard tried to
escape by jumping from the windows.
Seroki managed to get away from the
crowd, but Stazhinsh and Yonkowjak
were nearly beaten to death before the
police could rescue them.
WENT INTO THE CELLAR
Father Bogacli and the rest of his
bodyguard took refuge in the cellar,
noon, when an agreement was reached
whereby Father BogacK and Officer
Fitzgerald were promised a safe passage
II they would vacate the house When
the priest and officer appeared, the latter
became scared and started to run. He
was dubbed several times over the head,
but managed to leave the mob behind and
give himself up to the authorities at the
central station. Bogacd was not mo-
Tested and was driven to st. James par
sonage. After the priest had vacated the
crowd slowly dispersed. During the riot.
it is said. dozens of shots were fired.
There is fear that the Poles will set fire
to the parsonage tonight.
Up to 1890 O'clock there had been no
further demonstration on the part of the
faction, and ii is believed
no further trouble will occur tonight

He Speaks Of Canada's Attractions
For America.

Great Britain. and more recently prime

absorb Canada. Cries of They will
never do it.'D The Canadian fisheries
were the chief attraction for the United
States, and the minerals of the dominion
was another. Canada could give the
United States the finest harbors in the
world, besides bringing that county 500
miles nearer to Great Britain. He con-
tended that Canada's deep-seated loyalty
TO Great Britain would always consti-
tute an impossible barrier to absorption.
Sir Charles spoke in praise of Sir Donald

and the authority under which the
United States land offices at Topeka
pretend to act in permitting these en-
tries to be made"
Mr.. Frederick stated that within the
limits of the Topeka district. home
stead entries We're being made upon
lands held by their present occupants
for % years.
THE LOUD BILL.
The house then went into committee
of the whole, Mr.. Payne (Rep., n. "
IN the chair, for the consideration of
the Loud bill.
Mr.. Quigg (Rep., N. W began the
argument against the bill. He said
the author of the bill had been Woe
fully misled by the statement that
this class of matter was being trans
mitted at a cost of cents a pound
and that, therefore, this amount would
be saved. The fallacy of the conclu-
sion lay in the fact that the gentle
man made no allowance for fixed
charges in the postal service. The only
possible saving, under the bill, would
be the indefinite amount actually paid
the railroad companies for carrying
the matter.
Mr.. Bromwell (Rep., o. said the
necessity for the bill lay first in the
state of the governments finances
which demanded a reduction of ex-
penseS wherever possible, and second
and principally, the duty congress
owed TO the youth of the country to
protect it from the demoralizing in
fiuences of the trashy literature and
worse, that is distributed broadcast
over the land through the mails at a
cost of cent pound. Really val
liable literature, school books for in
stance, he said, did not circulate at a
cent pound; the Holy Scriptures had
no such privilege unless they were
cut up into parts and issued as a SER
ial in order to defraud the revenues of
the government: tracts and similar
publications paid cents a pound,
while the 'Old Sleuth" series paid l
cent a pound.
Mr.. Ogden Dem., La favored the
bill
The opposition to the bill was fur
Their expressed in vigorous speech by
Mr.. Cummings Dem., n. W He said
that the claim made by the friends of
the bill that it had the support of
the newspaper profession because of it's
endorsement by the Newspaper Pub
fishers association, if we'll founded,
might have caused him to swallow his
convictions and vote for the bill. But
the association represented but 161 |
out of ever 1880 daily newspapers of |
the country. Eighty-five per cent of |
the newspapers circulated in the |
United States, he said, was that of |
papers of less than 1000 copies, and !
it was against this class of publications |
that the bill would operate.
Mr.. Mahany (Rep., n. " asked Mr.. |
Cummings if he thought the postoffice |
department ought to be a circulating |
library.
Il believe" Mr.. Cummings answered |
that the postoffice depart
ment ought to obey the law, and that
the postmaster general should not do
as the secretary of state and say to
congress, You can pass a law, but
we'll do as we please about putting
it into execution (Applause.)
At the conclusion of Mr.. Cummings
the committee arose and at
$40 o'clock adjourned until tomorrow.

ARMY AND NAVY.
Five General Officers of the Former
and Three of the Latter Will Re
tire Early This Year.

washington, Jan. 5.-Five general
officers of the army and three of the
navy will retire during the first of the
wear. The first. General Michael K.
MORGAN. the commissary general of
subsistence. goes off the list on the 18th
of the present month, when he will,
without doubt, be succeeded by
Colonel Thomas G.. Sullivan. his as
sistant, and next in rank. The other
staff retirementS are those OF General
w. P. Craighill chief of engineers, on
July l. and General Ruggles. adJutant-
general. September II. General Craig
hills vacancy will fall to Colonel II.
NJ. Robert, now stationed at New York
CITY. or Colonel John NJ. Wilson, sta
toned at Washington, d. c., both of
whom retire in 1891. The successor to
General Ruggles is unknown. While
either General Greene. now at San
Francisco, or General Beck, General
Miles chief of staff, are the ranking
officers, both of them retiring next
year, would ordinarily be expected to
secure the promotion. yet the i'm
preston is strong in army and politi-
cal circles that General II. G. Corbln,
for a long time General Ruggles' as
sistant and who is now General
Ruger's chief of staff at Governors
island, will receive the appointment.
The two line retlrementS OF the army
are those OF Maior-Generals Thomas
H. Kruger, commanding the department
of the east, and Frank Wheaton, COM
manding the department of the Colo
RADIO, the former retiring April and
the latter Nav s.
Major General Wesley Merritt, now
at Chicago, will succeed General Kruger
in command of the department of the
east, which includes the Atlantic and
gulf coast line, and is considered the
most important department.
Any one of a dozen colonies may be
appointed by President Mckinley to
the two vacancies and, thus far, there
is no competent speculation on the
matter, nor can there be until the
next secretary of war is known.
In the navy the succession is abso
lutely fixed and the three important
retirements there simply cause adj
vancement throughout the service. Ad-
miral John G.. Walker, president of the
lighthouse board, retires March 20;
Admiral Francis NJ. Ramsey. chief of
navigation, follows on April 5, and Ad
miral George Brown. for some time
past the recruiting officer of the navy,
goes out July 10.
