Two kinds of women need DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription-those
who want to be made strong, and those
who want to be made we'll. 1t builds
up, invigorates, regulates, and cures.
It's for young girls just entering wom-
anhood: for women who have reached
the critical "change of life," for
women expecting to become mothers,
making delivery easy and almost pain
less; for mothers who are nursing and
exhausted: for every woman who is run
down, delicate, or overworked. For
all the disorders. diseases, and weak
nesses of women, "Favorite Prescrip-

THE CITY COUNCIL.
How to Make City Scrip Worth Par q
Tough Problem.

| The council met with a full hand last
night, and hOed over considerable bust
ness. AS a soul satisfying prelude,
the clerk gloated over the minutes of
half dozen previous meetings with as
much solid en- njOymeat as though he
| was reading some such story as ''the
poesy of the red headed rooster of the
rockies, or the life and adventures of
Congressman Belford of Colorado"
City Attorney Kemp reported there
were vaults along San Antonio street
| where the flood had come up that were
in consequence of the watery visitation
in an highly uncertain condition. He
advised that the health officer cast his
| weather optic along up in that coun-
try. The judge asked for leave of
absence of one week as he wished to go
| out of town, and would hand his duties
| over to the tender mercies of his
| deputy, Captain Eeal1. Petition grant
| ed.
The clerk recited that periodic and
pretty poem entitled the city pay roll
| for the previous month; and the May
pay roll of S225S 49 was allowed.
This brought up that irrepressible
SpOok, the dispute over the payment OF
certain salaries in excess of the face
| value on account of the depreciation in
city scrip. Judge Col1well held there
ought to be a cash fund from which to
|
the philosophy in fixing a mau's pay at
500 and then paying him S115; or at
S125 and then paying him S143 This
was an illegal appropriation. The city
| ought to provide some way to pay in
| cash, officers who are dependent on
their salaries for a livlihood. The
speaker was feminist depreciating our
own warrants. Salaries eemed to be
fixed by one action and violated by an
other.
| Mr.. Clifford in response announced
his determined purpose to make S75
worth of city scrip worth S15 in cash.
And the mayor said. that before the
city could get out of debt and bring its
scrip up to its face value the water
| bonds would have to be cancelled and
other bonds issued. The mayor said
he had plan to suggest to bring scrip
up to cash basis. The plan however
| was not unveiled.

neary finished the dam up in the

Militia were called out but could not
silence the angry crowd. An effort
was made to disguise Mitchell as a
soldier and get him out of Jail, but the
mob howled about the building all
night and prevented the consummation
of this design. AT two o'clock this
morning, when making an exciting
effort to capture the jail the militia

dangerously wounding seven. This in

and lynched him promptly. The town
is still in an uproar.
The mob bad increased to several
thousand when they alta acked the Jail

the doors. The sheriff then delivered
the keys and the soldiers hid them
selves. Leaders of the mob visited

The schools were deserted. The best
citizens took part with the mob and do
lot deny the fact.
Mrs Gaumer supplied milk to the
lotel at which Mitchell was employed.
Mitchell visited the Gaumer residence

WOrien and Durrant ReSDitpd

SAN FRANCISCO, June 4.-There is
much disgust here today over Judge
Gtlbert's practically resriting the two
condemned murderers, Worden and
Theodore Durrant, for at least six
months. In the Durrant case an ap-
peal was granted to the United States
supreme court. Worden was to be

does not meet until October the chances
are that neither case will be heard be-
fore January.
