Those Who Endure

The pains of rheumatism should be
reminded that cure for this disease
may he found in Hoods Sarsaparilla.
The experience Of those who have
taken Hoods Sarsaparilla for rheu-
matism and have been completely
and permanently cured prove the
power of this medicine to rout and
conquer this disease. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is the one true blood purifier
and it neutralizes the acid which
causes the pains and aches of rheu
matism. This is why it absolutely
cures when liniments and other out
ward applications fail to give perma
nent relief. Be sure to get Hoods. "

Three Men Killed and Thirty Seriously
Wounded.

New York, Oct 5.-The first news of
a most serious riot at Santo Domingo,
in which five men, one of them rich and
the others more or less well known,
were killed and over thirty more men
wounded, was brought here by Harri-
son r. Williams, until recently United
States consul at San Jose, Costa Rica,
who arrived here this afternoon on the
Atlas line steamer Alene from Port
Limon.
The riot was between influential par
tisans of President Ielesias and his op-
ponents. The two parties had planned
demonstration in their club-rooms In
Santo Domingo three weeks ago last
Sunday. On the afternoon of that day
they paraded through the streets
About one hundred men were in both
marching parties.
In order to- reach their own rooms
they had to pass one another They
met in the main street opposite the ca
thedral. Both sides had infIamed tenn
pers and had words when some one
fired a pistol. In a tWinkling bullets
were whizzing plentifullly. Knives
were used and rocks hurled. Every
priests came running out of the cathe-
dral and called on the rioters to desist.
The riot waged for some little time
longer but finally the efforts of the
priests were successful. The ground
was then found to be strewn with
bleeding men. Three were already
dead and thirty or more wounded.
Many of the wounded and perhaps two
or three of the killed were carried
away by their friends. Current report
had it that over sixty had been
wounded.
The latter We're taken into the ca
thedral and cared for. Two of them
died the next day. Among the killed
was Senior Zamora, one Of Costa Rica's $
richest men.
When President Igselias heard of the
affray he Immediately declared him
self dictator, Mr.. Williams says. He
did this so as to make absolute assur-
ance of preserving the peace and hay-
ing no repetition of the deadly riot and
that he will be reelected president, not
because he has announced himself die
tator, but because the majority Of
voters support him.

| TOWN AND CITY AFFAIRS
POLICEXES And FIREMEN RE-
CEIYE PROMOTIONS.

Status of the Case of Ex-Superintendent
Smith of the Fire Alarm Telegraph-Cor-
poration Counsel Explains the Stu alton
Meeting of the selectmen-Property
Owners Encroach on Fulton Street.
The much discussed question as to the
legality of the pensioning of ex-Supt.
of Fire Alarm Telegraph Smith was
again brought up at the meeting Of the
fire commissioners last evening. AT the
request Of the commissioners, Corpora
tion Counsel Ely appeared at the meet
ing and stated his opinion in regard to
the matter. Mr.. Ely had previously
submitted, an opinion in which he stat
ed that Mr.. Smith had been legally re-
tired but not legally pensioned. He last
night reiterated and elaborated upon
this opinion.
Some of the fire commissioners
thought, since in section 63 of the char
ter it is stated that from and after the
first day of July, 1897, there shall be
for both the police department and the
fire department a fund for pension pur-
poses, that section Il of the charter did
not go into effect until July /. Section
II provides that the fire commissioners
may pension a member of the depart
lnent whom they retire, provided, how
ever, that medical examiners whom the
board may appoint shall certify in writ
ing that the member has become per-
manently disabled, physically or men
tally, while in the active performance
n M hx-r Of hn arf0
ance of such duty.
When Mr.. Smith was retired on June
4 he was pensioned, but no certificate
of medical examiners, as required by
the charter, was submitted. The cor
poration counsel holds that the charter,
including section II, went into effect on
June 2, and that any pensioning done
by the fire commissioners after June 4
should have been done in accordance
with the provisions Of the charter in or
der to be valid
1t is probable now that the fire COM
missioners will appoint medical exam
iners, two at least, to examine Mr..
Smith and report whether or not, in
their opinion, he contracted his disa-
bility in the actual performance of his
duty. In case the examiners report fa-
vofably the pension will probably be
legally voted. In the meantime Mr..
Smith is retired, but cannot receive a
pension.
After Corporation Counsel Ely had
given his opinion last night and the
pension matter had been discussed at
length, Mr.. Ely withdrew and other
business was taken up by the board.
1t was announced that George Brown
of Engine Company No 8, who has for
several years been faithful and eff
cient member of the department, was
i'll with consumption. Mr.. Brown has
been on leave of absence for some
time and the leave was last night con-
tinued. His work as a fireman was
spoken Of in high terms by Chief Hub
bard and the commissioners.
The following promotions were an
nounced John e. Jones of steamer No.
II to a first grade fireman; John Rock,
steamer No 7, to succeed a second class
fireman. The board then adjourned un-
til Friday evening next, when esti-
mates of the department for the next
year will be discussed and probably
definitely made up.

Large Hotel Blown Down-Two workme en-
Were Killed.

Charlvoix, Mich, Oct. 5.-The big
hotel at Lindsay park, which was to
have been the largest summer hotel in
Northern Michigan, collapsed this after
noon and is a total wreck. 1t was en-
closed and rooted, but the lower stories.
it is asserted, were not properly braced.
and the fierce gale striking on the 44O
feet of side wall caused the most ex
posed to waver. and gathering momen-
tu1n as it fell the huge mass sank with
a crash, burying forty workmen in a
mass of broken timber and splintered
boards. In a few minutes hundreds of
willing hands were chopping and cut
ting away the wreckage, and in a short
time the injured We're being taken out
and the wounded cared for. In an
hour all were out.
Pierce Kendall and Guy Hamilton of
Grand Rapids are dead.
The badly wounded are: Charles
Hoyntleseman, C. w. Mcneil and Will
lis Silsby, all from Grand Rapids and
Traverse City; William Phelps and
William Woods, F. A. Smith and A.
M. Hall, spectators, were quite badly
injured, as was Charles Gabriel, the
electric light contractor. The money
loss will be we'll up in the thousands.
but the building will undoubtedly be
rebuilt.

When this list was reported, Com
missioner Hubbard inquired if the eff
cheney committee had looked into the
matter according to the rule recently
adopted by the board. Commissioner
Kinney. a member Of the efficiency
committee, stated that he had inquired
concerning each man whose name was
mentioned in the list and had found
that each evidently merited promotion.

Of the committee, reported that he had
been informed by the captains of the

was suspended for four months and the

peared. Some We're willing to set back
fences without protest While others
opposed the movement strenuously.
These latter set up the claim that un-
der the statute of limitations they had
acquired a clear title by holding the
fenced-in land, in undisputed possess
sion, the required number of years
Town Counsel Goodhart gave as his
opinion that the town had legal right
to have the fences put back, and in ac-
cordance with this opinion he was in
structed by the board to notify those
property owners whose fences encroach
upon the Fulton street layout that the
fences must be put back.
The request from the board of finance,
asking that the selectmen make up es-
Inmates for next year for the depart
ent of charities and corrections and
such other estimates as have previously
been made for the town government,
was read, and the board voted to COM
ply with the request.
1t was reported to the board that
Charles Mann had encroached upon the
highway with a new building which he
has recently erected on Fulton street.
Town Counsel Goodhart was directed to
notify Mr.. Mann to remove the build
ing from the highway.
Mr.. Goodhart was also directed to
appear and represent the town at the
hearing to be held by Major Leach this
morning in regard to the building of a
drawbridge over West river on KIM
berly avenue.
The roads and bridges committee will
open bids for the hardening of East
Grand avenue at o'clock Saturday af-
ternoon,
