SUBSTITUTE FOR RUBBER.

A California Tree which Produces - Gum
at Great Value.
SAN FRANCIsCo, March 5.-The dis
coyery of a substitute for rubber, which
it is said can be produced in large
quantities at less than a quarter the
cost of genuine rubber, is announced
by a Seneka county journal. The SUBJ
stance is the product of a tree which
grows abundantly in the central part
of this state, and was discovered by ac-
cident. The tree is tapped near the
base, and the sap, which is quite dark
colored, is caught in a vessel. After be-
ing exposed for a day or two a layer of
tough elastic material closely resem-
bling rubber is formed. II this is taken
off another lay er will form. This sub
stance will vulcanize like rubber, and,
when properly treated, is a perfect SUBJ
stitute for genuine article. 1t has been
tested by several scientific men who
say it will take the place of rubber for
almost any purpose.
\ company is being formed to put
this new material, which has not yet
been named, on the market. The
method of treatment is secret. The
discoverer says the supply is inexhaus.

Is untitled for the married state. Thousands
of young and middle aged women are in
this way prematurely aged, and are Grip
pied wives and impossible mothers. Wife
hood holds for them nothing but suffering
and unhappiness, and motherhood IS either
impossible or " menace of death.
A woman may be externally crippled, or
d~ishgured ever so badly, and she still re-
mains a woman, but the woman who Is
crippled in her very woranhood excites
our deepest pity. There is no reason
why any woman should remain in this sad
condition. Or. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-

strength and elasticity to the feminine or

petent motherhood. 1t Sanishes the dis
comforts Of the period of anxiety and makes
babv's advent easy and almost painless.
Thousands of once childless and unhappy

and are lighted by the smiles of a happy

merits of this great medicine. Good drug

CARSON. New, March 5.-The first
official statement of seating arrange.
ments was given to the Associated
Press. The arena has - large sections
and is not octagonal. There are $500
box seats, grouped from } to IL in a
box. $40 seats; 5,436 reserve at 500;
BPS at 80, and 1888 at s. each, max
ing a total seating capacity Of 10, 1852.
Should all these seats be occupied at

Space has been set aside for operat.
ing the kaleidoscope, also about 24O seats

for the ring are the same as used for
the Corbett -Sharkey fight. The plat.
form for the ring is now up and the
boxes will be completed by night. In
fact. the arena will present an almost
finished appearance at the close of the
days work.
Concerning charges of drinking that
