BRADBURY NOT READY.
He Objects to Going to Jail for Spit
ting in the Streetcars.

San Francisco, June 9.-The case of
w. H. Bradbury, millionaire, convicted
of violation of the ordinance which pro-
hibits splitting in street cars, was post
poned in Judge Wallace's court yester-
day at the request of the defendants
attorney
The case is on appeal from Judge
Lows department Of the police court,
where Bradbury was sentenced to a
brief term in the county Jail
If a fine only had been imposed the
matter would have been speedily dis
posed of and the city treasury would
have been enriched to that extent, but
the judgment of Imprisonment without
recourse was not to the liking of the
wealthy champion of the right to ex-
pectOrate in public places and that is
why this appeal has been taken.

No
Patchwork.

One of the most encouraging features
Of a cure made by S.S.S. (Swift's Specifc)
is its permanently. OF all diseases, it is
well known that those of the blood are
the most obstinate, and therefore the
most difficult to cure. The medical
profession, in fact, have virtually adj
rnitted that a real, deepseated blood
disease is beyond their skill.
OF course, their admission is not made
in so many words, but actions speak
louder than words, and their inability to
cure, after months and often years of
treatment, is sufficient evidence that dis
eases of the blood cannot be cured by
doctors. Their mercurial mixtures, al
though taken faithfully, only cover up
the symptoms of the disease, inducing
the patient to feel that he is being cured;
but when he is sooner or later seized
with stiff joints, pain in the bones, etc,
the evidence of the DOCTORS patchwork
Is conclusive. Such results cannot be ex-
pected from the use of S. S. S. Being
purely vegetable, containing no harm
full mineral ingredients, it IS the only
blood remedy which acts on the true
principle Of forcing the disease from
the system, building up rather than
tearing down the health. No loss of
hair, no stiff joints, no decrepit mercu-
Gis1 wrecks result from the use of S.S.S.

At very early period in the world s
history we find the rude people measur-
ing the longer periods Of the flight Of
time by making Observable ls on the
heavenly bodies. These longer periods
referred ~ were the division of time
into years and months The first oalcu-
lation was made by observing the mo-
ton of the sun among the consultations,
and the second, or shorter, period was
reckoned and divided into months, this
period being calculated according to the
various phases of the moon. Even long
before the time when years and months
were first calculated primitive man
must have noted the days and the
nights, calculating them by the alter
nate light and darkness, which depend
ed on the rising and setting Gf tue sun,
Here we have three divisions of time

curate divisions, slch as hours. minutes

Harry L. Richmond of Brockton
Felon.

lot His Notes Renewed at Ranks by
Forging Npmes OF His Friends Who
Had Endorsed For IL IN
Brockton, Mass, Jan. 18.-Harry L..
Richmond. who was arrested Saturday
sight on a charge Of forgery, has con-
fessed his guilt When confronted by
the men whose names he had used to
obtain money, he broke down and ad-
nitted the charge. The affair has
created sensation in social and bust
ness circles.
Richmond's business connection with
colonel Whipple, Fred p. Richmond and
/ Wallace f. Flagg date back to 1891, when
two of the three men Endorsed a $4,000
note for him, which was subsequently
discounted by the Randolph National
hank. Mr.. Flagg did not lndorse this
note. William H. Savage was the
third name on the paper, but when, at
| It's expiration. the note was renewed for
s4800 Mr.. Flagg became co-indorser
with Colonel Whipple and Mr.. Rich
mond. All three of these gentlemen
state that they supposed that the sec
ond note was paid by Richmond, but,
from the statement Of the bank Off
Gals, it appears that 1t was not only re-
newed once. but three times, each note
bearing the same names. At the time
IF the last renewal, however, a change
was made by Richmond, and, instead Oh
one note of $4,000. the bank received two
notes of $4,000 each. The bank officials
suspicious were aroused at this last re-
newal and the cashier and one of the
directors came to this city and called
upon Fred f. Richmond, the second in
iorser. As q result of the interview
Colonel Whipple and Mr.. Flagg were
sent for, and all three gentlemen de-
MED indorsinS the two $4,000 notes. Har-
~ p. Richmond was then summoned,
and, upon being confronted by all three
gentlemen, he broke down and confessed.
The counsel for the bank. Lloyd c.
Chamberlain. was called in and Rich
nond's confession placed in writing, and
AZ the same time, he signed voluntary
petition in insolvency. 1t is understood
that after this. all three of the Brockton
gentlemen were in favor of allowing
Richmond to go, but the bank officials
would not consent, and Richmond was
turned over to the police and locked
up.
1t Is understood that there are other
notes of Richmond's outstanding, but
whether the Endorsements are genuine
cannot be ascertainted Mr. Flagg,
whose name Richmond forged to the
Randolph bank notes, admits being an
lndorser for Richmond on notes of some
what smaller denominations, but until
recently supposed that they had all
been paid. Last September, however, he
received notice from a Maine bank
that a note bearing his Endorsement
had been protested. He confronted
Richmond with this. and the latter
promised to make good the amount. In
December, however two other notes
we're protested with FIaggs Endorsement
IN them, and it is alleged that the
Whitman savings bank holds two more
ot $500 each. 1t is probable, however,
that none of the banks involved will be
losers Ri hmond is said to be worth
more than $4,000. Rich
mond was never considered fast liver
but it is said that the demands of So
ciety made heavy drain on his re-
sources.
