SANTA ANA. Nov. Geo. A. Knight,
an eloquent orator from San Francisco,
made an address here this afternoon to
fair-sized audience in the Grand opera
house. His speech, which was eloquent
enough in oratory, was sharply criticized as
a cheap TRADE of abuse against Mcguire,
against whom his speech was directed.
The Republican candidates held a rally
at Tustn Friday night and tonight at Cap
istrano. As usual a special train was run
down and back for their benefit. A ban
quet, ball and speaking are among the
amusements to be furnished.

BLACK AND Blu Il.

Black and blue colors are not subject to
fashions this season nor in any season
They hold their own and will not wash out.
They are pretty solid colors, and but for the
misery of wearing them, might become
fashionable. Some men take pride in wear
ing them as tokens of their protcssion as
soldiers do their sears. But bruises black
or blue, or both, ought to have immediate
attention, for underthem may be a nerve
hurt or u muscle badly wrenched. black
and blue bruise is bad thing, not only
from its tender soreness but the confused
blood is prevention of regular circulation
While sore spots like these will not wash
out, there is something that will rub them
out in no time, and that is st. Jacobs Oil.
1t is peculiarly adapted to their quick cure;
A pennant can be won only by hard
knocks, with sears and bruises. but after
the ball is over, if any remain, this one
cure is the best. Bruises come from con-
fusion in all avocations, and it is we'll to
rememb Der at all times just what will cure
them the best.
