A NEW MEDICAL MISSION
Seventh-Day Adventists Will

Quite a novel and successful religious

Mission and its purposes are humane as
well as religious.
The new enterprise is under the control
of Rev. E. E. Andross and Elder H. H.

evening at 1880 and preaching at s, fol-
lowed by praise service and questions on
the Bible.

are many sick men, women and children

attention. We also get great many ap-

while the main purpose of our enter

and do helpful work in The clinic we are
open for humane work in general. II

THAT story about Bob having little
trouble with his stomach is bosh. He
drank some mountain coffee that did
not agree with him, and Bob has a happy
way of removing such things by a system
of heaving which he has practiced to good
advantage. He believes in keeping on
friendly terms with the inner man, and
when anything enters his stomach that
upSets his internal arrangements he
heaves-you know what mean by that.
"Why, half an hour after he expec.
torated the stuff he started off on a run of
three miles to his training quarters and
arrived feeling as trim as racehorse.

FRACTURED HIS ARM.
Singular Accident to Thomas Behan
an Amateur Baseball Player, at
Central Park.

Thomas Behan, an amateur baseball
player, met with a singular accident at
Central Park yesterday morning and it
will be long time before he is able to
play again.
Behan was playing shortstop for Precita
Parlor, n. S. G. W., in their match against
Miller, Sloss & Scott's nine for charity.
The Precitas before the game started went
into the field to practice a little. Behan
was at third base and had made several
catches and throws. His brother was at
first base and he called to him to throw
the ball.
Behan drew back his right arm and was
about to throw the bali when his arm fell
helpless to his side and the ball flew off at
tangent. Behan uttered a cry of pain
and his brother and some of the other
members ran toward him. One of them
lifted his arm up, but the pain was so
e1cruciating that he dropped it suddenly.
Behan was taken to the Receiving Hos
pital. where it was found that his arm was
broken in three places between the shoul-
der and elbow. The only plausible reason
advanced by the surgeons for the fractu
is that Behan's bones are exceedingly
brittle and his muscles particularly strong.

A START ON
THE COLLEGES
DR.. R. Beverly Cole Laid the
First Brick in the
First Wall.
With a Few Friends He Cele.
brated the Holiday in His
Own Way.
Wanted to Havo the Affiliated
Buildings Date From Wash.
ing on's Birthday.

The first brick in what Will be the dental
college building of the Affiliated Colleges
was laid yesterday by DR.. r. Beverly Cole.
There was not much of a ceremony, and
what exercises there vera were of patri-
otic character. Dr.. Cole is dean of the
medical department of the University of
California.
On March 20 the cornerstone will be
formally laid, with fitting ceremony and
in the presence of the Regents, the Gov
ernor and those who are sufficiently inter-
ested to attend. 1t is intended to make
that occasion memorable one.
The grading Of the lot for the colleges
will be finished about the 1st OF April,
after which the buildings will be COM
pleted with all possible speed.
The buildings intended for the depart
ment OF medicine and pharmacy will be
under one roof at the east end of the prop
erty. Beside this will be the dental COL
lege, while on the west end will be located
the college of law. Those three buildings
Will face Parnassus avenue, formerly J
street, while TO the rear close to the bluff,
will be located the veterinary college.
The first stories of all the buildings will
be constructed of California granite.
In speaking Of the work YESTERDAY DR.,
Cole said: II could not permit so i'm
portant an occasion as the birthday of
George Washington TO pass without
coupling up his memory with that of tn e
Affiliated Colleges of the great State OF
California. And Thought nothing could
be more appropriate than to go out there
and just set half dozen OF bricks on this
day. Ii for no other reason than that it
will go into history that the first brick
was laid on Washington's birthday in 1897.
consequently did it in the presence
OF few friends and at the same time
made few remarks such as l now express
81 fought hard to have the colleges
located where they will be, and l trust l
may be spared to see them finished and
occupied. 1t will take about two years to
complete the work. But we expect to
have them rooted in before the end OF
eighteen months"

An Important Measure.

Tie government bill to prohibit
the importation of foreign prison
made goods In England is said to be
the shortest ever introduced in par
lament. 1t consists of less than
fifty words, and simply provides
that goods proven to the satisfaction
of commissioners of customs by evil
dence rendered to them to have been
made or produced, wholly or in part,
in any foreign prison, Jail, house of
correction or penitentiary. shall be
prohibited from admission to the
country. The measure is the out
come of an active agitation on the
part of organized labor against the
extensive importation of numerous
articles made in the prisons of Ger
many and other countries.

Dolores is at present very badly
in need Of new depot and store
room. Dolores certainly is deserv-
ing Of this addition, as the freight
and passenger traffic demands it.
Besides a depot with waiting rooms
would be Of great convenience to
passengers awaiting the arrival Of
trains. Then again, it would add
to the appearance Of the town. The
company has most beautiful site
reserved. The freight and passen-
ger discharge at Dolores is as large
as that Of other towns along the
line which have all those conven-
icnces. Let Us hope.

Robert Nicely returned from Sill
verton last week where he has been
for some days on mining business.
While there he secured bond and
lease oh the Parnell lode, owned by
John Lonergan, Miss Eliza Loner-
gan and Mrs. Geaney of Silvertoh.
The consideration is $4,000. 1t is
also stipulated that the mine shall
be worked continuously during the
period mentioned in the lease, two
years. 1t Is regarded as an excellent
property and can be worked very cas-
lily. 1t is free gold proposition and
with what little development it has
had-about so feet-has shown up
remarkably well. The quartz aver
ages SIS per ton, and Mr.. Neely
believes that it will improve. He
will put I5-stamp mill upon the
claim at once and endeavor to get all
there is in the proposition.-Ophir

Union Literary Society Meet.

The editor had the pleasure of
being present at the Union Literary
meeting last Saturday evening and
was certainly highly pleased. Re-
port of the previous meeting was
read and approved, and the society
then proceeded to business in good
style. Program for the evening fol-
lowed. Reading, recitations, his
torical exercises and speeches were
indulged in. All participants proved
themselves above the standard in
everything they had undertaken on
this occasion. Among them were
f. B. Clearinghouse, Benjamin Suth-
erland, L. A. Westlake and Cham
pion Montgomery. The last named
gentleman is an eccentric comedian
and he creates laughter every time
he opens his mouth. He speaks
fluently and carelessly and makes
an argument that is very interest
ing. E. B. Clearinghouse deserves
special mention, as he is very cool
and collected in every sentence he
utters. Mr.. Sutherland needs no
praise, as every one who knows
him can come to determination as
to how he carried himself. Mr..
Westlake, editor of the society pa
per, read before the literary, was a
creditable edition, and he also de-
serves great credit. All other par
Elephants deserve like praise, but
space in this issue will not permit a
detailed account.
The literary closed with ''mock
itriai,, which wxs inucif better ana
more laughable than farce come
dy. The members of the society
acquitted themselves credibly.
The subject chosen for the meet
ing next was: (Which has been
most beneficial to mankind, the
printing press OF the steam engine. "
