A weak stomach is the cause Of about
nfne-tenths of all disease, yet in most
cases the wrong thing is treated and
the true cause overlooked.
This is because a weak digestion pro-
duces symptoms resembling nearly
every disease because it Weakens and
dlsturbs the action of every nerve and
organ in the body; poor digestion
causes heart trouble, kidney troubles.

Keep the digestion good and no one
need fear the approach of disease.

What He Proposed Was for the
Peoples Interest.

The Douglas distance tariff bill
went down to death yesterday in the
house with Representative Fred Sny-

hands on deck but five, either absent
or excused. The vote was AZ for and CT
against, and by the motion of Judge
Littleton to reconsider and lay upon
the table, all hope of further action,
was put beyond the possibility of doubt
1t is the opinion that the bill which
was taken UP by the house yesterday
after a checkered career through the
various committees, as a special order
was given a fair consideration with
all its friends present and the house
by its action went on record, as either
not believing that the Legislature can
arbitrarily fix rates, or that time has
not yet come when the state should
seek to secure control Of the railroad
corporations. The additional question
as to whether or not lower rates in

scale of rates in the bill reduced pres
ent rates on grain from IL to 20 per
cent. The Grondahl amendment re-
duced present rates from to IL per

The discussion on the merits of the
bill was opened by it's author
Mr.. Douglas contended that it would
be good public policy to enact a law
along the line proposed. He alluded TO
the contentious Of railroad officials
that the rates are already lower in
this state than elsewhere and that
the tendency would be to cripple the
roads and reduce wages of employees.
These contentious were not true. and
he proposed to show it, Mr.. Douglas
compared rates of roads in this state
with those of other states, claiming
that there was a discrimination that
In effect, was luminous to the agricIl-
tural interests of this state. He dis
cussed at great length the rates on
cerials and coal, charged in different
parts of the state, and that all the
rates within the state were eXorbitant.
Mr.. Douglas, in the course of his
argument. said:
"A reduction of rates will make more
Wheels move and more grain will be
grown. Allow roads to establish arbi-

WHAT WAS TRUMP?
1t Needed an Umpire to End the
Game

Two men were playing pool, with
great earnestness and interest, even if
with little skill, says the Buffalo ''Ex-
press A man sat doing on the settee
beside the table. The players dubbed
along with many disputes and miscues
ard scratches. Each won a game.
They had been playing close-your-
eyes and bump into them and
everything goes. At the conclusion of
the second game the man who had won,
a game of call shot
The other man assented, and they
began with a great show of studying 6
lines and angles. They were very
careful. They called many shots and
made few of them. Finally with two
balls each, the man who proposed the
call-shot game said: Safety and sent
his ball into the bunch The cue ball
went to the cushion, hit a ball and
came slowly back. Two other balls in
the bunch rolled lazily to the upper
rail also.
Hold on, there!" said the second
man; that's a scratch. Put down a
ball. You owe one"

any longer. Put down ball and I'll

You blamed fool! I'll not do it.

They stood there and disputed for
ten minutes. The arguments grew
warmer at each exchange of opinions.
Finally the man who made the safety
said: We'll, there's no use standing
here and arguing about it. I'll leave
it to anybody in the ROOM
Leave it to this gentleman. then"
said the other man, pointing to the
dozer on the settee.
They went over and explained the sit
uation. The dozer asked many ques-
tons and then Strengthened up and
looked wise. LAS | understand 1t, gen

THE REVIVAL.
Evangelist Gardner Tells Why Some
Are Not Christians.

The revival at the Christian Church
continues with conversions every night
Rev. Mr. Gardner's topic last evening
was. "Why Are Not All the People Of
Sacramento Chris ,ians?" His text was
from John xvii. 17-"Thy word IS
truth"
Wrbtten upon the blank leaves of his
BgbIe. the evangelist declared, he had
over 300 excuses offered by different
persons for not being Christians, but
that which he regarded as the chief
reason. both in this city and elsewhere,
was THAI men do not believe Gods
word is true
Ut is not that infidelity which denies
the divinity Of Christ, or that the Bible
IS Gods word, which keeps the masses
from becoming church members. or
church members from being faithful
Christians. but that unbelief which re-
CARDS the word OF God in much the
same light that we do the word Of the
mother who says 70 her dfsobedient
child. IF you do that again I'll whip
you Within an inch OF your life"
He then gave numerous incidents, in
connection with Gods dealing with
men, to prove that God means what he
says. and pressed upon his audience the
necessity OF acting as though they be-
Heved it.

the mountains have brought disaster
to the Egbert Reclamation District,

some 200 feet of the levee went out and
the water rushed in and soon covered
the land of the district, which ems
braces between 5000 and 10000 acres,

Is CHARLES HEITMAN DEAD?
A Case That is Certainly a Very
Strange One.
He is Heir to a Portion of a Valua-
bic Estate Back in
Illinois.

| On Wednesday night man who gave
his name as Bert Shepherd called at the
| Record Union office and said he had
| Just learned that Charles Heitman of
this city was on that day drowned at
Banta, San Joaquin County, while cor
railing some horses that We're to be
! shipped East.
Shepherd said he did not learn the
| particulars of how Heitman was
drowned, only the fact He added that
Heitman was a friend of his and was
well-known here.
When the Record Union" reached
Florin yesterday morning and p. II.
Smith, a well-known farmer of that
place, read the paragraph, he fastened
to the city to learn the particulars of
Heitman's death. The latter, he said,
had been employed at his place, but re-
Gently fell heir, together with his cou-
sin, Bert Shepherd, a law student of San
jose to a very valuable estate, one
| that is worth several hundred thousand
dollars.
| Heitman, he said, had completed all
his plans to go to Illinois, where the
| property is situated, and had employed
| a large farm for him. One of the con-
| ditions was that he should purchase
Smiths farm at Florin, and the bargain
was to be consummated in few days.
In the meantime Heitman was to ship
! 800 or 400 head of horses back there,
and did leave here a few days ago to
| collect the animals and drive them to a
| shipping point.
| At Mr. Smiths reqeust Coroner Clark
| telephoned to Banta, but received a re-
ply to the effect that nothing was
known there of anyone having been
drowned in that locality. Then he tele-
phoned to the Coroner of San Joaquin
| County, but the latter said no such case
had been reported to him.
| All of which greatly puzzles Mr..
Smith. He doesn't know what to think
| about it And the strangest of it all
| is that the description he gives of Heit
man fully answers that of the man who
man had lost his life.
| He was a man perhaps 30 years of
age, nearly if not quite six feet tall,
weighed between $50 and 200 pounds,
and wore light mustache. He was very
roughly dressed, about as a man would
! be when at work on a farm or cattle
range. He said very lttle-merely
stating that Heitman had been drowned,
and his manner indicated that the pub
| lication of that fact (or alleged facD
was his chief desire
Mr. Smith says he does not knqw
| Shepherd, but learned from Heitman
| that he was a cousin of his, was inter-
ested in the inheritance, and that he was
| a student.
But the man who called at this office
and said he was Bert Shepherd, was a
| long way from San Jose and certainly
! bore no outward indications of being a
| student, while he did answer the de-
| scription of the man who he said had
| been drowned.
Possibly Heitman was drowned, and
| possibly the Record Unions infor-
mant was the real Bert Shepherd, but it
| is very strange that the news of the al
| legged drowning cannot be verified.
