A Perfect Cathartic

Is one which does not wrench the
system or leave it weak and exhaust
ed. A perfect cathartic is found in
Hoods Pills. They are praised every
where, and after once being tried they
soon permanently take the place of
the old fashioned drastic pills, such as
''our grandfathers used" Hood s
Pills are the only pills to take with
Hoods Sarsaparilla and they greatly
aid that medicine in its cleansing and
purifying work.

This is the anniversary of the death
in 144O of Giles de Laval, Marshall de
Retz, the richest man of his day in
France. He served under Joan of Arc.
He was tried convicted and strangled
for alluring scores of children into his
castles, and numbering them. The
story of his life finally passed into
a legend, and he is known in history as
Blue-Beard (Barbe-Blue), and was be-
lieved to have married in succession
many wives, each one Of whom he kill

the time of Louis XIV, wrote the story
of his wicked destruction of young
people, and so he is known as the

Blinds That viii Enable Regulation
and Control - Furnishing all
Right-A Warm Place.

Of late there has been complaint
about Kaakopua school, the primary
department of the High School, In re-
gard to the lighting of the rooms.
1t will be remembered that, not long
ago, the Board of Education considered
it necessary to put in specially con-
structed blinds to stop the glare and
overa bundance of light that really did
raise havoc with the eyes of both
teachers and pupils.
At the present time, light in the
rooms can be we'll regulated. The COM
plete closing of the blinds during a
bright sunshining day will render the
rooms too dark for school purposes.
The newspaper representatives were
asked to make an inspection of the
school on their own account so a few
of them in company with Minister
Cooper, Inspector-General of Schools
Townsend, Deputy Inspector Gibson,
Professor Scott and ]. LightfOOt, went
to the place yesterday afternoon. A
thorough inspection was made and the
concensus of opinion seemed to be that
the lighting is all right.
1t was, however, the opinion of some,
that, in oder to be able to judge, one
would have to put himself in the posi-
ton of the teacher or pupil and be in
the rooms under similar circumstances
for a part of several successive days.
There is one thing bad, however,

Cornell Crew Makes the Columbians
Very Anxious

POUGHKEEPSIE N. Y, June IL
The college crews were all late in get
ting out for the evening practice At
6 o'clock Coach Courtney ordered his
three crews into their boats, taking them
out to do an exhibition mile. This mile
proved to be magnificent exhibition OF
speed, and it indicated that the crew
which beats Cornell must be a remark
ably fast one. The crews started off at
a 81 stroke, the varsity taking the water
in fine style, with the freshmen doin Z
almost as we'll and toward the end they
hit the stroke up TO 81. The time was 4
minutes and Is seconds. Allowing 16
seconds fer the distance not rowed a:
the start, the time for the mile was 4
minutes and 81 seconds.
The Harvardfs varsity crew took a
pull of only about two miles. 1t looks
somewhat as though Lehman has got
the crew down fine, and is now working g
them moderately for fear Of their going
stale. The freshmen rowed about four
miles.
The advent of Cornell has frightened
Columbia. Coach Cowles saw the Itha-
cans row today, and it is said that the
blue and white crew is on the eve Of :,
big shake-up.
The Columbia crews had q very hard
day, for CowIes made each Of them row
fully two miles. The varsity rowed &
mile against time this afternoon. Their
time was not given out, but it was nc
secret that 1t was nearly minute slow
er than that made by Cornell. Before
that they had brush of two and a half
miles with the freshmen. The young
sters had half length the better of the
varsity at the start, and finished that
much ahead of them. The varsity hav-
ing lost about two lengths through err
ratio steering
The Pennsylvania crews left their
boat house tonight and rowed slowly up
the course for hard pull back with the

The varsity crew started mile above
the mark where the course commences
and as they passed the start the seconl
varsity, or substitute crew, picked them
up. At the end Of the four miles the
varsity crew was an eighth Of mil
behind them. The freshmen fell in at
the second mile, and finished one length

The Kaufman Case

SAN FRANCISCO, June 1.-THE su-
preme court rendered decision today
In the celebrated Mary Kaufman case
which involves an important question
regarding the law governing the proba-
tior of wills. Mrs. Kaufman died in Los
Angeles in January, 1895. leaving vast
estate to a number of relatives, but dis
her daughter, Mrs. Lizzie
King. When the will was offered for
probate Mrs. King filed contest, al
leging that undue influence and fraud
had been practiced when the decenent
made the will. The trial jury found that
the charges were true. and upon this
showing the court denied probate to the
will, whereupon an appeal was taken.
The supreme court. after reviewing the
case, holds that there was no undue in
fuence, and therefore reverses the order
denying the probate and orders new
trial of the case.

THE HOFFMAN INQUEST
A MOST MINUTE INQUIRY rs
MADE
Practically Nothing Discovered
Which Throws Light on the Mys-
terry Of the Mans Death

SAN FRANCISCO, June 17.-When
the inquest into the cause of the mystic
rious death of Isaac Hoffman on the
evening of June 1 was resumed this
morning H. N. Ferrenbach, the special
watchman who found the dying mer-
chant upon the floor of his office, testified
to that fact, and, stated that shortly after
o'clock that evening he met Figel on
Bush street. and after learning that
the bookkeeper was going back to the
office for something which he said he had
forgotten, saw him join Hoffman at the
door. While able to fix the time at whicr
he found Hoffman dying at 6:45, Ferren-
bach was in doubt as to the time al
which he saw Figel going to the office,
but thought it must have been a few
minutes after 6.
Police Officer J. H. Colen. who respond
ed to Ferrenbach' call after finding Hoff-
man, described the position in which he
saw the dying merchant and the condi-
tion of the office most minutely.
Rufus Manuel, clerk in the Assessor s
office, stated that at 6:25 o'clock on the
evening of June l, he saw two men out
side the door of Hoffmans office, one of
whom was tall and stout and wore a
beard, while the other was smaller and
had an auburn mustache. The taller of
the two invited the other into the Office
saying he would explain. Both seemed
to be excited. At the entrance of the
office on Bush street, the witness noticed
woman, heavily yelled, walking up and
down, and apparently waiting for some
one inside.
Officer B. Love testified to the removal
Of Hoffman in patrol wagon to the Re
ceiving Hospital, and Detective G
Crockett stated that while conducting
the investigation in Hoffmans office
soon after the tragedy. a young woman
who proved to be the nurse girl en-
ployed a. Hoffman's house, came in and
said that she had been sent to find out
why her employer had not come home to
supper, as usual. She was very much
excited and stated that when Hoffman
left home that morning he was in bad
temper.
Louis Friedman, merchant, swore .ha,
he saw Hoffman at the door of his Office
on June l at 6:15 o'clock and asked him
If he was happy, to which Hoffman re-
sponded that he could not be happy with
such a mother-in-law Several other wit
nesses were examined upon imma terial
points, and the matter then went over
until tomorrow.
