The camel is a beast of great
strength and endurance. Moth
ing hurts it until the proverbial
'1ast straw" is added to its bur-
den. The human digestive sys-
tenn is very much like a camel.
1t is really astonishing how much
abuse it will stand. Sometimes,
however, something worse than
usual will be eaten, and will go
through the stomache into the
bowels, and there it will sstick-
that's constipation. Nine-tenths
of all human sickness is due to
constipation. Some of the Sim
plest symptoms are coated tongue
and foul breath, dizziness, heart
burn, fatulence, sallowness, dis
tress after eating, headaches and
lassitude. A little thing will
cause constipation, and little
thing will relieve it. DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets are n certain
cure for constipation. They are
tiny, sugar-coated granules, mild
and natural in their action. There
is nothing injurious about them

GRAND RACING EVENT.

| WILLIE, WILL BE THE SCENE
| OF SOME LIVELY RACES
ON THE FOURTEENTH.
The greatest cycling event that
has ever taken place in Florida
has been arranged for May 14th,
and will be held on the splendid
cement track at Panama Park,
near Jacksonville, on that date.
1t is due to the Jacksonville
wheelmen, the leading cycle or
ganiza ton of the state, that
this event has been arranged.
Many race meets have been held
in past seasons in the state, and
the interest they have aroused
has done much for the develop
ment of the bicycle in FloiiIa
These races, have been part:cipat-
ed in by local riders and by the
best from Georgia, but the dis
tinctive features of the coming
meet will be that, in addition to
the best riders from both states,
a large number of crack wheel
men of the country will be pres
ent Among these will be Coop
er, Murphy, Kennedy, James
Michael, the famous little wheel
man, Ingram and Longhouse,
the champion of Canada, besides
several others who are now fol-
lowing the national circuit, which
opened at Montgomery, Ala,
April 28
An affair Of this kind is of ma
tional renown, and attracts the
attention of the entire country
to Florida, and thus naturally
brings the state into greater
prominence. The efforts of the
Jacksonville wheelmen in secur-
ing the meet entities them to a
liberal support, and it is to be
hoped that the attendance at the
races will be such as to warrant
the large expense necessary to
secure another meet next year.
The railroads, appreciating the
Importance of an attraction of
this kind, have accorded for the
occasion unusually low rates
$3.50 from this city for the round
trip on either road. Tickets at
these rates will be on sale the
18th, and will be good until the
night of the 18th. This will be a
very favorable opportunity to
visit Jacksonville for a small
amount of money, and at the
same time to witness the finest
bicycle races that have ever ta-
ken place in Florida or the south.
The events as now arranged are
as follows: Professional races
one mile open, one mile handi.
cap and three mile handicap, with
, cash prizes aggregating $3.50

The LIGHT QUESTION

LIGHT COMPANY COM
PETING FOR CITY
LIGHTS.
An adjourned meeting of the
.ouncil was held last night with
lie following members answering
o roll call: Livingston, Green,
Weathers, Pittman, Davis and
Benjamin.
Immediately on calling to order
the question of city lights was
taken up. The light committee
consisting, of Weathers, Benja-
min and livingston submitted
report in wtichthey recommended
that the city contract with the
Gener; | Electric Co., for 36 arc
lights at a price Of 20 cents per
light per night.
Mr.. Ballard,s representing the
General Electric Co., was called
upon and made three propositions
to light the city as follows:
First. Furnish 81 arc lights,
1000 candle power at the rate Of
25 cents per light per night.
Second. 3G lightsFsame power
or one year at 234 cents per
ght per night.
Third. 36 lights, two year con-
ct at 224 cents per light per
hit.
lie gave an exhaustive discus
of the light question and the
eral condition of the electric
t plant., Before closing he
ed that he had received ad-
from his company that the
ve price was the very lowest

refused the company would

FREIGHT RATES TO v1sALIA.
A Schedule Issued by the Southern
Pacific Company.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12.-The
Southern Pacific Company issued its
first schedule of freight rates to Visalia
to-day. AS will be remembered, the
Southern Pacific Company recently
purchased the line between Goshen and
Visalia, formerly the Visalia Railroad.
This was in anticipation of the ap-
preaching completion of the Valley
Road to Visalia. 1t is announced that
the Valley Road will have its tracks
laid across the st. John River and into
the town of Visalia before the end of
next week. and as that event will be
followed by the issuance of a supple
mental freight tariff by the new line,
the Southern Pacific has undertaken
to anticipate it's rates by a freight
schedule of it's own. Assistant General
Freight Agent Luce explained to-day
that the rates published in the new
tariff were expected to be somewhere
in the neighborhood of the rates TO be
established by the Valley Road. The
rates are governed by the western
classification.
Traffic Manager Moss of the Valley
Road is now engaged in preparing a
schedule of freight rates for the Visalia
branch, but they will not be announced
until the company is ready to run its
trains into Visalfa.

HE FOOLED HIS PA.
The Old Gentleman Was Beauti-

When the young married man tells
this story he makes sure that his father
is not within ear shot:
Il never had but one falling out with

went home one evening and told him
that I was engaged, he sS-queStioned
me like a lawyer, and each answer in
creased his wrath, till he positively for

mise. He did not like the girls family
He would have it that she was a for
tune hunter. He could never approve
of her under any circumstances, but If
1 would go abroad for two years, see
other women, hold no communication
with my fancee, and then return to
marry her, he would interpose no OBJ
staclcs. I accepted his terms.
After 1 had been in Paris a year I
met an American girl who was in all
respects my ideal. She was with a
wealthy aunt, whose name she had
taken, and whose fortune she was
about to inherit I wrote to the gov
ernor about her, sent him the opinion
of some of my countrymen whom he
knew and said that his scheme had
proved a good one after all. With his
permission 1 would wed the girl in
Paris.
He cabled his permission and his
approval, but in the letter that followed
there was a tone of mild reproval for
my inconsistency. You notice that my
wife is a prime favorite with him. He
never tires of singing her praises, and
doesn't allow a day to go by without
reminding me how he saved me from
the blunder that would have spoiled
my life"
But wasn't it little hard on the

WHAT MADE HER DOUBT.
Her Lover Was Suspicious1y Lavish
With His Money.

she was not a girl who was habituaIly

has the most money!

The best friend looked at the thought-

EXAMINER" LIBEL SUIT.
Neither of the Defendants Present
When the Case Was Called.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 12.-When
the cases of A. NJ. Lawrence, managing
editor, and c. S. Aiken, exchange editor
of the Examiner" charged by Claus
Spreckels with libel, were called in the
Police Court to-day neither of the de-
PENDANTS were present. 1t was ex-
planned that Aiken was absent from the
city.
Judge Campbell continued the case
two hours, stating that if Editor Law
renee was not present at the expira-
tion of that time he would declare his
bail forfeited, and a bench warrant
issued for his arerst. At the appointed
hour the attorney for the defendants
produced an alternative writ of prohi-
bition, issued by Superior Judge Seawell
restraining Judge Campbell from for
feiting Lawrence's bail or issuing a
bench warrant, and citing him to show
cause why he should not be permanently
enjoined from taking such action.
Lawrence later appeared and gave the
required bail.
