Joseph Duplain, late of Company c, Fif-
teenth Kentucky infantry, a native of
Switzerland, aged IA.
Joseph Duplain was the old soldier who
was so brutally murdered in the tenderloin
district of Santa Monica. The tales told
of Duplain being an habitual drunkard are
disproved by the fact of the large sum
standing to his credit in the Farmers and
Merchants bank of Los Angeles, and the
further fact that on searching his commode
at Company A his captain, A. Richter,
found the sum of $50 in gold. No common
drunkard could have those amounts out
of his pension of $12 a month, and further,
1 have the assurances of his comrades
who knew him intimately and well, both
here and in San Francisco, that he was
habitually a temperance man, but a few
drinks to so old a man, especially the sort
dished up in the district he was so unfor-
tunate to visit, would account for his in
toxicated state.

POMONA

POMONA, July 9.-(Regular Correspond
ence) Action by the city trustees relative
to riding bicycles on the sidewalk has
caused talk among wheelmen of whom
there are nearly 1000 in this community.
The city attorney was directed to draft
an ordinance prohibiting the riding OF
bicycles on any sidewalk within the city
limits. This is asserted by wheelmen to be
burdensome. They claim that miles and
miles of sidewalks in the city are scarcely
ever used by pedestrians, and that hun
dreds of the riders of wheels are women
and children, and that in many localities
it is almost impossible to propel wheel in
the street. There is to be meeting of the
board on Tuesday afternoon to consider
the question, and it is more than likely this
large percentage of the citizens of Pomona
will in some way be represented.
The various drying yards will dry some
thing like 1000 tons of apricots, and the
amount handled by fruit growers at home
will swell the aggregate to a figure some
where between 2000 and $500 tons. The
prices being paid are very low.

The PHI, sioIogv of the Liver

The liver is the largest secreting organ
in the human body, and the bile which it
secretes is more liable to vitiation and
misdirection from its proper channels than
any other of the animal fluids. Luckily
for the bilious, however, there is an unfail-
ing source of relief from liver complaint,
namely, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
medicine which for about half of a century
has been achieving thorough cures of the
above mentioned ailments, fever and ague,
dyspepsia, bowel complaints, rheumatic
and kidney affection and disorders involv-
ing loss of nervous vigor. 1t is. moreover,
a preventive of malarial disease, and
affords protection to thousands of persons
residing in districts of country where that
dire scourge is prevalent AS a remedy
adapted to the medicinal requirements of
families, it is supremely desirable and as
a means of fortifying debilitated system
it is thoroughly to be depended upon.

On tho sad occasion of the death Of Lord

In the month of May Il was the custom
formerly for all tho artists In Rome to in
dulge In picnic at Cervara, farm In the
Roman campagna. There used TO be
donkey races, and the winner OF them was
always tho hero Of the day.
On one Of these picnios we had halted at
q small town three miles out Of Rome for
breakfast. Every one had dismounted
and tied his beast to "A paling, and all were
eating merrily. Suddenly one Of the
donkeys kicked over beehive, and out
few the bees, to revenge themselves on the
donkeys.
There were about 100 of tho poor boasts,
but they oil unloosod themselves and took
to flight, kicking up their heels In the air
ALI but one little donkey, who was un-
able to free himself, and 30 the whole
swarm fell upon him.
Tho pionio party also broke up and fed,
with the exception of ono young man with
fair, curly hair, dressed In velvet, who,
slipping on gloves and tying n handker-
chief over his face, ran To libcrate the poor
little beast. had started to do the same,
