When, therefore, she was laid on the

The awful moment came. The AK

In a second it was replaced by DR..

hung over the woman, breathless with
excitement. After a lapse of about
three seconds Gabrielle's eyelids quiv-

opened, and there was clearly an eX-

other second and the eyes looked up

at the breast.

Santin. Sure enough they were. First
an inarticulate mUrmur came from
them, and every physician bent low
intensely curious to find out what was
passing through the mind of the Wo-

What are her thoughts at this terri

trembling with excitement.
He was quickly answered. Gabrielle

The action of the Board of Trustees
in defiance of the remonstrance of a
great number of citizens, in permitting
a saloon to be established next door to
and right up against the wall of a
church is disgrace and shame. More
/ especially is this true in the light of the
fact that this same Board of Trustees
referred the application to the Chief of
Police and that official reported strongly
and emphatically against the PROPOSE
ton. The church is located on Sixth
street, between J and K streets. 1t was
urged in favor of the grant of permits
sion that it is simply a case of misfor-
tune for the church: that business has
grown around il and left it in the heart
of the business section. But this is dis
ingenious, for there is really less bust
ness in and about Sixth street to-day
than there was twenty-years ago, or at
any time since the church was built,
over thirty years ago. When that house
of God was erected Tenth street was
far out east; most business was concen-
trated in the region between Front and
Sixth, and on the east and west run
ming streets. Now business houses have
pushed beyond the Sixth-street line and
as far out as Twentieth, and the down
town district is less populous and less
frequented than ever before and far less
oil GlX-ar1f n
street. But our cross streets, of which
Sixth street is one, are not business
streets essentially. On Sixth street
there are within a block and a half of
the church in question three other
churches, and have been for a genera
ton. There would be just as much
reason to permit saloons to abut against
the walls of Westminster Church at
Sixth and L, or the Sixth-street NJ. E.
Church, between K and L, or the Con-
gregational Church, on Sixth street, be-
tween and ], as against the walls of
the Synagogue, on Sixth street, between
and K. The simple truth is that if
there is any strength at all in the
claim of precedence and occupation, The
churches have the presumption right on
Sixth street, from I to L, since in these
three blocks ON this same street ere
four of the principal churches of the city
and there they have been these forty
years The claim of the saloon defend
ers is silly, shameful disg1aces the city
and win give us an unsavory reputation
abroad. When the people manifest
their ineompetency to select governors
| by electing a Board of Municipal Leg
islators equal to. sustaining such pre-
| tense as has been put forward in this
case, we may Well doubt the capacity
of the people of Sacramento for self
government. Those members of the
| board who had the courage TO vote
against the disgrace deserve recogrl-
| ton by public thanks.

Special to the Register.
New York, November 20.-The horri-
Bile pair of the Guldensuppe murder are
resting in their cells across the East
river. The biack-eyed, black haired
heayy-jawed woman who swore away
the miserable BARRIERS life, is now eyinc-
ing nauseating piety, while that little
smlrklng assassin is smiling grim.y at
the thought of how he will try to talk
her into the electric chair as effectively
as he talked himself. The statement
that the murder was the most astound-
ing and unprecedented crime of the
century is not true. 1t was a brutal,
clumsy murder, the criminals them
selves in their laundering and their
loquacity furnishing the clues to its de-
lection, as criminals usually do. But
is has been unprecedently blessed in
its exploitation. With two such papers
as the World and Journal breaking their
necks in competition to make it fear
some and gruesome, and such a talker
as the murderous barber to give loath-
some details,it rapidly took front rank.
When, however, 1t called up the SER
vices of two such spectacular lawyers
as Mr.. Howe and Mr. Friend, the climax
is not remarkable that Juror Larsen was
laid up with appendicitis, and that the
thing has to be tried over again. They
will have fine time after next Monday
getting new and unprecedented jury.
The probability of a dozen imbeciles
people who have heard nothing Of
the case or formed no opinion about it
is first-rate. Both the World and Jour-
nal have fastened the guilt on Thorn
and Mrs. Mack three dozen times. Each
principal has proved the other guilty
of murder in the first degree, and each
lawyer has triply convinced his own
client as we'll as his rivals, And all
hands are ready to do it again.
Mr.. HOWE AND MR.. FRIEND.
Howe is an able criminal lawyer of
thirty years practice. He stops at
nothing to serve his client, and is
very bulldog of ferocity when warmed
to his work. He is tactful, toO in his
way, clustering over the weak not to
say rotten points in his case with
rush that makes him a terror to the
young assistants of the District Attor-
ney. AS he weighs 800 pounds, he does
not weigh his words when he is
aroused, but pelts them right and left
in voice of thunder. In his whole
career he has never been so upset, so
taken aback, as he was by Mr.. Fields
production of Mrs. Nack's confession.
The you, too, Brutus." of the dying
Caesar was not a circumstance to the
reproach which Howe hurled at
Friend, and Friend quailed under it,
as well he might. Friend, however,
had gained a great point. He had
made a sensation. and had probably
made a bargain to get his client off
with imprisonment for life. That will
appear later when her trial comes on
For years past Friend has haunted
the re"ertorial elbows, aching and
longing for just such a chance. He

Look Out
For Cancer /!

Few people are born entirely free from
blood faint. This is often very slight or
remote, and sometimes may not develop
at all in one generation, but breaks out
in a serious disease later.
Cancer, the most dreadful of all dis
eases, is often she result of some blood
faint inherited from generations back.
It often appears as a mere mole or IN
significant pimple, which later develops
into an alarming condition. No one
knows but that he may be subject to an
inherited impurity in the blood, nor can
he tell whether or not this may some
day crop out in the form of destructive
cancer. 1t is, therefore, important that
sey little sore or scratch, which does
not readily heal, be given prompt atten-
ton, or serious condition may result.
Mr.. Robert Smedley, Of Ocala, Fla,
was the victim of a malignant cancer,
which first appeared in the manner
above described. He writes:
cat first I paid no attention to the
little blotches on my face, thinking they
would soon pass away. Before long,
however, they became sore, and soon
began to enlarge. 1 applied ordinary
