His Respite Cannot End Before the Latter
Part of Next February.
San Francisco, Nov. 13.--In view of
the fact that the supreme court will
adjourn on Tuesday next until the Sec
ond Monday in January it Is not con-
sidered probable that w. II. 7. Dur
rant, the condemned murderer of
Blanche Lamont and Minnie Williams,
will expiate the crime for which he was
sentenced to be hanged in December,
1895, during the current year. In the
ordinary course of events the matter
cannot come up for hearing upon the
points involved in the order granting
the writ Of probable cause until the
middle of January.
After the case has been decided an
other thirty days at least must inter-
vene before the remittitur from the SUI
preme court can reach the court and the
condemned man be re-sentenced for the
second time. This course would not al
low the execution to take place before
the latter part Of February or the be-
ginning Of March next. 1t is possible
that the attorney general may apply
to the supreme court to advance the
case and hear it as a special order, but
this action is so unusual that few at
torneys entertain the suggestion as like
ly to be accomplished.

Free From
Rheumatism.

If the people generally knew the true
cause of Rheumatism, there would be
no such thing as liniments ana uotlons
for this painful and disabling disease:
The fact Is. Rheumatism is disordered
state of the blood--it can be reached,
therefore, only through the blood. But
all blood remedies cannot cure Rheuma-
tism, for it Is an obstinate disease, one
something more than a mere tonic:
Swift's Specific is the only real blood
remedy and promptly goes to the very
bottom of even the most obstinate case.
Like all other blood diseases, the
doctors are totally unable to cure Rheu-
matism. In fact, the only remedies
which they prescribe are potash and
mercury, and though temporary, relief
may result, these remedies produce q
stiffness of joints and only intensity the
disease. Those who have had experience
with Rheumatism know that 1t becomes
more severe each year.
