The following did not originate in this office, built is appropriate: News paper men are blamed for 6 lot of things they cannot help; such as us- ing partiality in mentioning visitors, giving news about some folks and leaving out others, etc. They simply print the news they can find. An editor should not be expected to know the names and residences of your un- cles, aunts and cousins. even if he should see them off on train. Tell him about it. It's news that makes a newspaper, and every man, woman and child in the neighborhood should be associate editors if they could.

Electric Bitters,

Electric Bitters is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps more gen. erally needed, when the languid ex- hausted feeling prevails, when the liver is torpid and sluggish and the need of tonic and alternative is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious levers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and freeing the system from the malarial poison. Headache, Indigestion, Con- Dizziness yield to Electric Bitters. soc. and -$l.00 per bottle at w. T. Gonder & Co.'s Drug Store.

FOreSterS of America.

The following kind words are taken from the San Berdardino Free Press {: No better instance of that spirit of charity and brotherhood which at once pervades and typifes the secret societies of America can be cited than that of Anton Blaise, lately deceased, of the Foresters of America.
 MT. Blaise was 8 member Of the Yuma Court, F. of A., and was on his way to San Francisco to visit relatives when he was taken suddenly i'll in San Bernardino, Court Liberty, heard of his distress and steps were taken i'm mediately to relieve his wants and alleviate his suferings. A physician and nurse were engaged and the in valid received the closest attention. In spite, however, of the care and att tention which he received, MT. Blaise finally succumbed to the disease and was buried, and here comes a further illustration of the fraternal feeling alluded to above
 After having paid out the money for his last sickness and having direct ed that Q certain sum be used to defray the costs of his funeral, the
  Yuma Court, feeling that some visible token of fellowship and respect was demanded, telegraphed Court Liberty to prepare some suitable emblematic wreath wherewith his grave might be decorated. This was done, and a wreath, appropriately lettered
 COURT YUMA No. 3,
 F. OF X.
 CHARTER MEMBER,
 Prepared by Mrs. Waghorn, was laid on his grave by the Foresters who attended. Although a total stranger and wholly unknown to the local Court, except as a frdter, his funeral was attended by over one-half of the lodge members living in the city. The pail bearers being Fred E. Peters, William Mohren, Jas. B. White, Jas Clark, Alfred McRae, Samuel M. Hayes.
 Thus is most forcibly brought out the fact that if one is a member of a first-class bona fde fraternal society, if he happens to fall sick among total strangers, the kind hands of brothers are ready and eager to minister unto hls every want, and if he die the grave itself, fashioned by the hand not of the stranger, but of the friend and brother, is robbed of half of it's terrors.

 If we could trace Dyspepsia to its source, it would lead back to our kitchens. In fact, the secret of good health is good cooking. II we'll cook ed, foods are partially digested; if poorly cooked, they are less digestlble than in their raw state. Ii you are victim of faulty cooking; that is, if you suffer from Dyspepsia, the rational cure must be looked for n an artiii- cially digested food, and food which will at the same time aid the diges- ton of other foods. Such a prepara- ton virtually rests the tired digestive organs, thereby restoring them to their natural strength.
 The Digestive Cordial, as prepared by the Shakers of Mount Lebanon, is just such preparation, and a'single 10 cent bottle will convince you oE its value. If your druggist doesn't keep it, he will be glad to get 1t through his wholesale house.

The feast is on the plan of the old Spanish Fiesta, but under the manage ment of modern snowman, with COW boys wild as March hairs, lady eques- tians without equal, vaudeville artists that would grace the stage in any city and bulls-the like of which cannot be found in any country for fighting and matsdores that seem to court danger.
 The Meadows boys are wonders they ride like courtiers-shoot like Wm. Tell and throw the lasso like none other than the Meadows Broth CTS.
 The performance commenced at four o'clock p. m. Thursday and for two hours there was not an idle minute for the audience. The acts were run off in quick one, two and three order. Hardly had the grand entry finished when Arizona Charlie was shooting glass balls thrown in the air with a pistol. He did some truly marvellous shooting hitting ten out of twelve flying balls. He then shot with a rifle small balls from Miss Melbourne's outstretched hands and number from her head.
 The little Taylor sisters then took the platform and completely captivated the audience with their grace, sweet faces and pretty dresses. Several times they were encored and each time they went through their evolu- tions of skirt and contortion dances and lend a pleasant variation to the wild program.
 Miss Melbourne and Miss Williams then run race. Both are superb horse women and the manner in which Miss Williams handled her mustang showed that she was rival for any COW boy.
 There was bronco riding and fancy riding and shooting from a running horse, but the talk of the town today is that, Black Bull, that made such a gallant fight and won hands down in the language of the sports. Several bulls were fought by the Matador Garcie and the clown with his au- tomatic protection and Jack Meadows rode each of them to finish, proving himself q bronco buster from the first rank. i
 The last bull fought like demor from the time he entered the ring Several times the fighter barely escap- ed but the bull soon caught on and proceeded to lift the strong dodges from their pinning, downed the Mata- dore-stamped on the clown-run all the horsemen out of the ring and made q grand stand finish by taking away a section of the fence; flooring fully score of onleokers. He carried a pannel completely away; upset the roulette wheel and scattered the money and chips; tossed the dealer in the air; went directly through the bar; took in the chuckoluck game and tossed three Indians over the lemonade stand and was in the street before the excited audience knew what had hap ,pened. He was lassoed in 'jify and will be the bull for tomorrow's light. The strangest part of the whole thing is that only one was hurt. The strong grandstand is we'll protected from the bull ring and soon a force of carpenters were at work to repair the damage done. As the seating capacity has proved not sufficiently large to seat the people attending more seats have been added today and those attending tomorrow will find plenty of seats and a grand old time is assured all. AL together the show is the best ever exhibited here and the proprietors are reaping a harvest.

TO REoRGANIzE THE Y. NJ. c. A.
Movement on Foot Working to Tha,
End

A movement is on foot to perfect a
reorganization of the Young Mems
Christian association. and meeting
will be called for that purpose within
few days.
At present the association has no
membership, but is supported by con-
tributions. A suite Of rooms is occupied
in the Central block, including a read
ing room, supplied with literature, an
office and reception room, and large
apartment where Sunday services are
held. The association practically went
to pieces a couple of years ago when it
became involved under load of debt,
created by the attempt to erect 7.
NJ. c. A. building.
For the past eighteen months Rev.
George H. Gamble, pastor Of the Heb
ron Baptist church, has acted as secre-
tary, and largely through his efforts
the institution, in name, has been
maintained, as a nucleus for an or
ganiZation for which an attempt will
now be made. Mr.. Gamble is confident
of success and has the promise of some
support.
The plan contemplates the opening of
s. gymnasium, bath, evening school and
other features for the members, in fact,
to maintain just such an association
