married for ten years, had comfortable
home, made good wages and provided
well for his wife. For q long time he
has been going to his work regularly in
the morning and returning regularly in
the evening. On Thursday he went to
the borax factory, as was his custom, and
at night came up on the train and went

taken away and his wife was nowhere to

A Full Five Days Treatment
Professor Jules Laborde's Marvellous
French Vital Restorative
SENT FREE TO MEN
BY SEALED MAIL.
No C. 0. D. or Deposit Scheme.

Are your days and nights made wretched by
in those attributes of virility which fit man
to hold up his head among his kind and say
proudly within himself: II a man?"
The stealthy, unexpected advance of nervous
debility creeps upon man and paralyzes his
powers before he Is aware of It. When he sud
denly awakens to the fact that his manhood Is
going from him he becomes panfc-stricken and
an easy victim to many disreputabe schemers
But all attempts at recovery are vain without
the help OF genuine. scientific treatment
1T do not believe" (sayS Professor Pierre Eau
yeau in a lecture on NERVE FILAMENTS, de-
lfvered at Paris, France), that single hu-
man being was ever ABSOLUTELY and PER-
MANENTLY cured of the evil effects of Sper-
matorrhoea, or Varicocele, or restored from I'M
potency until the discovery and use OF Pro-
lessor Laborde's formulas of Calthos. un-
hesftatingly say to students present that his
preparation of Calthos has absolutely cured
every case that has been under treatment by
the professors of university, and I believe

sician Jules Beaurand. NJ. D., recognized as
one OF the abIest practitioners of Europe in
the treatment of nervous dseases). ARE abso-
lutte specifics for Spermatorrhoea, Varicocele
and Impotency, and do not believe there is

only known remedy composed upon true scien-
tifc principles for the absolute cure OF nervous
weakness and impaired manhood. 1t is the
only treatment which will cure the EFFECTS,
no matter what the cause may be. IT Is the
only remedy that will cure at any and every
stage of the trouble. except after II has pro-
crossed into epilepsy, consumption or insanity.

against my inclinationS, egotisticaL. 1t
is alleged that if l succeeded in win
ming any glory out of this war as the
commander of the Seventh Regiment
L would become a prominent factor for
political preferment, and that was the
purpose that actuated those who were
active in trying to down me. This
they have succeeded in doing, as far
as the mastering out of the regiment
is concerned, and they have accom-
plished their ends by misrepresenta
ton of facts to the authorities at
Washington.
These facts will be disproved, for
there exist no facts to support the
charges that have been brought against
me. j. r. Newberry representing the
people of Los Angeles, came to us some
time ago in the guiSe of friend, and
as such was received by the officers Of
this regiment. Instead of being our
friend he went throughout the camp
stirring up the malcontents and sent
back news to Los Angeles that all of
the men wanted to be mustered out,
which was. and is, not true, as the men
of the regiment, and I mean those who
are men, do not want to be mustered
out. AT the same time that Mr.. New
berry was secretly stirring up the men
he was telling me that he had come to
San Francisco as the representative of
the War Board of Los Angeles with full
power and explicit instructions to get
for the Seventh Regiment whatever it
desired. He said to me: We represent
an influence that goes directly to the
President himself and we can get for
the regiment anything that is within
reason. If the Seventh wants to go to
Honolulu we can send it there, or if
the men desire 1t we can get them six
months service at home-that is, near
Los Angeles Mr.. Newberry. then went
on to state that he thought that it
would be good thing to have the regi-
ment come to Los Angeles, as much
benefit would accrue to the city. I
told him that 1t was idle to talk of
taking the regiment to Los Angeles, as
that would be violation Of the best in
terest of the service to have the men
encamped near their homes, and in adj
dition that neither the men nor the
officers wanted any idle service, as they
did not leave their homes for that pur-
pose. I told him that the men wanted
to go abroad.
This is the way that Mr.. Newberry
talked when he was here with me, and
you can imagine my surprise when as
soon as he got to Los Angeles he i'm
mediately commenced to work to have
the regiment mustered out The men
of my regiment have been misrepre-
scented, and the statement that l have
tried to influence them in any way is
false. Before two weeks have passed
the people of Southern California will
wake up to the fact that they have
been misled in this matter, and when
the facts are known they will see that
they have been deceived OF course we
officers feel the disgrace keenly, but the
matter does not end here, for we shall
call for a reckoning when we get
home"
Colonel Berry when asked if he would
make any effort to remain in the SER
vice with some other command replied
that he was not certain as to his fu-
ture movements, but that such thing
was by no means an improbability.

STRUCK BY AN ENGINE.
Little Eddie Melville Wanted to
Head Off Others Gathering
Drift Wood.

OAKLAND, Sept 3.-Eddie Melville, a
12-year-old lad. residing at 2050 Union
street, was run down by a switch engine

Murderer Meadors Held.
OAKLAND, Sept. 3.-The preliminary
examination of James N. Meadors, charg
ed with the murder of Jonas Try at Camp
Barrett recently, was concluded in Judge
Lawrences court this afternoon and de-
PENDANT was held to appear before the Su-
perior Court without bail. Throughout
the hearing and at the announcement of
the result Meadors seemed unaffected

fore been published. Attorney Deuprey

bring out the fact that Try had been in a
drunken condition on the night prior to
