Good looks are really more than skin

condition of all the vital organs. II
the liver is inactive, you have a bilious
look; if your stomach is disordered, you
have dyspeptic look; if your kidneys
are affected, you have a pinched look.

have good looks. Electric Bitters" is

KILLED Il! /. BY BY. THE n T. {; CARS r!
SUDDEN DEATH OF VIM. ILsE, A
YOUNG MACHINIsT
He Was Riding on His Bicycle to His
Work When Terminal Train
Struck Him

While going to his work yesterday morn
ing, William Ilse, machinist, was run
down by a Terminal railway train and ia
tally injured. The accident occurred at
the Macy street crossing, and happened a
few minutes before o'clock. Ilse resided
with his family on East Third street, Boyle
Heights. and was employed in the Key
stone machine works, on Bruno street,
between Main and Alameda streets. He
left his family shortly after o'clock and
mounted his bicycle to ride to the iron
works. He took Macy street, as it afford
ed the easiest route.
There is quite a sharp grade down Macy
street toward the railroad crossing, which
is just east of the bridge and probably
1lse allowed his bicycle to get beyond con-
troll, or else he started coasting down the
hill, never realizing that the $50 Terminal
train to Pasadena was approaching from
the south. Flagman Jamison Is employed
by the Terminal to stand at the crossing
and signal the trains when the road is clear
and the fiagman did so. On the south side
of Macy street Is the cannery building
which completely shuts off all view of that
section of the track on which the train was
travelling. When Ilse did see the approac CHI
ing train he was within few yards of the
track, and as he was riding at q lively
rate of speed on his bicycle, thought per-
track In any event, he did not try to turn
out of the way of the train in order to avoid
crossing the track, nor did he try to throw
himself off his wheel. The train was run
ming quite rapidly, with the tender and
engine reversed, as is often customary on
the return trips to Pasadena The wheels
were guarded by cowcatcher the same
as on the front of the en- CINE, ancl'this guard
struck Ilse and his bicycle as they were In
the middle of the track. The rider was
carried fully thirty-five feet, but his wheel
dropped to the ground and was run over
by the train and ground into shapeless
tangle. Ilse was thrown to the west side
OF the track. Engineer, Walton and Fire
man Allen hardly; Realised what had han
pened, the affair was so unexpected The
train was brought to a standStill as soon
as possible. and the train crew returned
to the aid of Ilse. The mans head had
been crushed and his face was cut and
bruised. He had besides received severe
internal injuries. Use was unconscious
when aid reached him, ard he died within
short time, withbit making anv state
ment. f''
The police authorities were notified of
the accident Immediately. and the patrol
wagon was sent to take Ilse to the receiv-
Ing hospital, but he expired before the ve-
hicle arrived, so the body was removed TO
the undertaking rooms of Bresee Brothers
An inquest will be held this morning ar 10
O'clock. The deceased was "a years Of age

Dissatisfaction General

To the Editor Of the Los Angeles Herald:
As private citizen, not in politics, | have
had more opportunity to 60 about and talk
with voters in the late campaign for the
state ticket than ever before. One discov-
cry has been surprise to me, viz, the large
number of intelligent Republicans who no
longer support the party with any interest,
but solely because they do not know what
else to do.
1t has been the same story in several towns
of Southern California. My conversation
has been with men with whom was in a
position to talk confdentially as a fellow
Republican by inheritance and vote. Among
young men who are old enough to think for
themselves and who are not influenced by
some hope of direct personal gain, the sent-
ment of dissatisfaction and growing indie
pcndence has been wellnigh unanimous,
though many of them are loath to acknowl-
edge it publicly or among family friends or
social or political acquaintances. Among
professional men who have seen more years
of life there is deep-seated conviction that
the Republican party of today does not pos
cess the principles which won their allsg-
ance to it years ago, but they are conserva-
tive men and they will look well before they
leap. Substantial and prominent citizens
who were gallant soldiers of the republic,
have expressed the same feeling. And most
notable have been the expressions of dissent
from their party on the part of men who
are counted as stalwart Republicans in the
communities where they live.
The reasons given by these men for their
incipient revolt may be summed up under
three heads:
Nrst-The almost complete domination
of the party by corrupt political bosses.
Second-The forcing upon the voters of
unworthy candidates for responsible places
of public trust who have "pulp or "bar-
REL"
Third-The unchecked aggressive oppres-
sion of the American people by the handful
of Republican capitalists who now own the
bulk of the property in this country.
But these voters do not believe in free sill
YER.
I talked also with one Democrat, one Pop
ulist and one Silver Republican. The Pop
ulist is a gentleman who, before coming to
California, was for years most successful
and respected teacher of political economy
and history in an eastern city. He said:
"The Democratic party now is new party
and good party"
I am convinced that the eve of the new
entmry sees host as yet unmarshaled who
await the high minded leaders and the un-
trammeled party that shall lead them back
to political Righteousness and individual lib
ertv and opportunity. FIDES.

will be brought up again with the result that
the just claims will be allowed and the 9th
ers shelved.
As regards the organization of the assem-
bly, there is no need of the repetition of the
Duckworth scandal as the code requires the
of chief clerk, minute clerk and
sergeant-at-arins of the last legislature and
they are sufficient for all needs of the tenn
porary organization. "If elected speaker of
the assembly," said he, 81 shall keep down
expenses in every possible way, but l wish
you would say for me that if by retiring from
the speakership race l can secure votes for
Robert N. Bulla for United States senator
shall gladly pocket my personal ambition
and step aside. l consider the senatorship
of more value to us down here than the
speakership."
A prominent Democrat yesterday gave as
the probable appointees of Governor Budd
for bank commissioner Barney Murphy
Of San Jose and Adiutant- General Barrett.
For the vacancy created by the untimely
death of Judge Ryan, the sage of Cahuenga
was mentioned. Another Democrat equally
prominent, was not go sure of Mitchell and
thought George Roberts had what is called
q 'lead pipe" cinch, and so the matter
stands. The man that gets the appointment
is the only sure thing in politics and Gossip
ers prediction of surprise may show some
politicians where they are at.

SPECULATION-SUICID
TELLS THE TALE OF A KANSAS
BANKER
Closing Of First National Of Emporia
Followed by the Suicide Of Pres
ident Cross

EMPORIA, Kan, Nov. l6.-This after
noon the First National bank of Emporia
was closed by order of the comptroller of the
currency. An hour later Charles s. Cross.
the banks president and one OF the best
known breeders of Herefords in the west,
shot and killed himself at his farm near the
town.
Speculation is said to have led to Cross
downfall. His fortune had doubtless gone
down with the bank. Among the heavy
losers by the failures are Lynn county and
the city of Emporia. All the city and county
funds were deposited in the institution.
Cross was custodian of his fathers estate,
which is also said to be in wrecked condi-
ton.
Cross end was tragic. To the majority of
the people of the town the comptroller's
card in the door of the bank came as sur
prise, but in financial circles, both here and
in the state the result has been anticipated
for six months Examiner Charles Jobes,
who closed the bank on order from the comp
troller, had been going over it's books for the
past week. Cross had a smile on his face as
he passed his friends on the street. He went
Immediately. to Sunny Slope farm and,
speaking pleasantly to the employees, passed
into the bedroom of Manager Evans house.
When he did not come out Evans entered
the ROOM He found the banker lying in
pool of blood, with his pistol in his hand
Death must have been instantaneous.
The news of the suicide was on the streets
of Emporia few minutes after the card ap-
peared upon the bank door and created most
intense excitement.
The banks statements have been growing
bad since last May. Small Withdrawals of
deposits resulted, but most of the business
men kept faith in the bank, and up to o
o'clock today heavy deposits were made.
The last statement is shown as follows:
Liabilities-C Capital, 100000; surplus and
profits, $l0l ,28953; due to depositors, bank
ers, etc, $5l3,599.42; circulation, s22, 500.
Total, $737, ,3SS95.
Examiner Jobes has been wrestling with
the problem of the assets for week, and it
is authoritatively stated that he found them
badly shrunken. He said "While do not
know exactly what the outcome of this mat
ter will be, still 1 think am justified in
saying that the depositors will not suffer
seriously. Yet, when thing like this oc-
ours it lops off 25 per cent of the assets of
the bank at one blow"

CUBAN DELEGATES
Cannot Leave the Island Without a
Spanish Passport

HAVANA, Nov. l6.-!The delegates from
the Cuban assembly at Santa Cruz del Sur,
appointed to go to Washington to confer
with President Mckinley, intended to leave
today for Tampa by the steamer Mascotte
After all their arrangements yesterday they
went to the Plant line office to buy their
tickets, where they were confronted by a
demand for their passports before tickets
could be issued to them under the Spanish
law and the regulations of the company
The delegates had no passports and fatty
refused to approach the Spanish authorities,
either to request favor or show compliance
to their laws. The steamship agents were
firm, and as result only Manuel SanguiIly,
who is an American citizen, could leave to-
day.
An. application at the ticket office of the
Ward line was met with the same rebuff,
but it is believed that the difficulty will be
overcome.
