Mr.. W. NJ. Bush, clerk of Hotel
Dorrance, Providence, II. l. He
says: "For several years have been
almost q constant sufferer from diar-
rhoea, the frequent attacks complete

About two years ago q travelin g
salesman kindly gave me a small
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy. Much
to my surprise and delight it's effects

symptoms of the disease I would

satisfactory and almost complete

CHARLES PHILLIPS WATCH.
1t Was Found in the Possession Of
Daniel Sullivan.

Deputy Constable J. E. Lewis yester-
day morning arrested Daniel Sullivan
on suspicion of having on last Sunday
night burglarized the residence OF
Charles Phillips.
After the arrest Lewis stated to
Record Union reporter that he had
heard Sullivan was trying to dispose of
a watch, and finding him at Twelfth
and streets, asked him to see the
time-piece. Sullivan, Lewis said, de-
clared he had no watch, whereupon the
latter searched his pockets and found
the one taken from Phillips residence.
Sullivan then said he found the watch
near Suffer Fort in the eastern part
Of the city, and that he had been wait
ing until it should be advertised so he
might return it to its owner.
Later in the day Lewis arrested John
Sullivan, a 15-year- brother of
Daniel's, and swore to a complaint,
based on information and belief, charg-
ing them with burglary. The young
men were released last night on giving
bonds in the sum of 81 900 each.
Mrs. Sullivan, the mother of Daniel
and John, states that the former who
was in bed on Sunday night when the
robbery was supposed to have been
committed. 1t will be remembered that
Mr. Phillips left his house at o'clock
p. m, and did not return until II, be-
tween which hours the burglary was
committed

DANGEROUS TO OLIVE TREES.
THE DISEASE KNOWN AS OLIVE
TUBERCULOSIS.
Letter From Newton B. Pierce of
Santa Ana That Should In
terest Olive Growers.

The fungus growth which has at
| tackled the Gurr olive orchard at MERGED
| is still an object of much interest among
horticulturists in the State. All are fully
| convinced that it is what is commonly
known as olive tuberculosis, but as very
| little is known of the disease, there is
much speculation as to whether or not 1t
| is contagious, or can spread only by the
sap or cuttings or CRAFTS from the trees
attacked
| Secretary Lelong ofthe State Board
of Horticulture recently received a COM
Imunication on the subject from Newton
b. Pierce, Assistant United States Path
oiogist, stationed at the Pacific Coast
Laboratory at Santa Ana, which was
published in the Record Union" Since
then Mr. Pierce has written another let
ter to Secretary Lelong which shows
that he has somewhat modified his
views. The letter, which is interesting
reading, is as follows:
Mr. B. NJ. Lelong, Secretary State
Board of Horticulture, Sacramento, Cal
ifornia.
Dear Sir: Your letter of the 10th in
slant with the second lot of specimens
of olive tuberculosis came duly to hand.
|
of the olive, is due to motile micro-or-
ganiSm, a species of bacillus, and can
be positively said to be contagious or in
| fictitious, i. e., it may be reproduced by
means of the organism when the latter
reaches suitable place in healthy olive
branches for it's increase, as in the cam
blum tissue through slight injuries of
the bark, and probably directly through
] Of he
bark.
That the organism is motile would in
dictate that it may live in moist SOIL, so
that it is now probably impossible TO
wholly remove or exterminate the pest
in the State. Further than this, l have
received the disease from widely sep
arated regions already, and if the sltua-
ton could be fully ascertained it is most
probable that the disease would be found
to exist in a dozen orchards in Cali
fornia already.
LAS soon as I have learned more of
the orchard at MERGED, its extent, the
/ extent of the disease, and such other
facts as it seems important to learn,
will then try to write you further as to
what may seem best to undertake in the
| line of experimental treatment for It's
control. AS I have not received the de-
sired facts respecting the diseased orch
ard l will try to write the Commits
soner at MERGED for further informa'
ton. If it then seems best it may then
be possible for me to come north and set
on foot such work as should be under
taken. You will see the need Of conduct
ing this experimental work, that we may
in the end be able to handle the disease
in case it should eventually become
widely distributed. Very sincerely
yours, NEWTON b. PIERCE

FARLEY's FORESIGHT.
He Hits on a Plan for Ferriting
Out a Burglary.

Several months ago Farley's grocery
store at Twelfth and F streets was
Dotted by burglars, and among other ar
ticles stolen were several bundles of
bread tickets.
For some time past Mr.. Farley has
felt satisfied that some of the stolen
tickets were coming back to him, and
that the thieves were reaping the fruits
of their labors. He accordingly kept
tab on the customers who purchased
tickets, and found that at least two men
drew rations who never pungled.
Yesterday morning one of the men
again presented a ticket, and demanded
bread, but Farley demurred and held
him until the police patrol arrived and
officers Hayes and Higgins locked him
up. AT the Jail he gave the name of
John Connors, and said he lived in a
cabin in the vicinity Of Twelfth and c
streets. He said the tickets had been
given to him by another man, and
promised to point him out to the police.
Last evening Connors, accompanied
by officer Fisher, went out to the vi
cinity of Twelfth and c streets, and
pointed out the man who he said gave
him the bread tickets. The latter was
arrested and lodged in Jail. He gave
the name of John Helewell, and had a
bread ticket in his pocket, but declined
to talk about the matter

Portland arrived in this city from
San Francisco on the boat yesterday
and took J. k Gilman's hack for
Chinatown.
In the hustle preparatory to starting
a telescope valise containing much of
the worldly goods of the celestial was
left on the. wharf and was not missed
until the hack had gone about block.
When notified that the valise had
been forgotten the driver Immediately
turned back, but when the wharf was
reached it had disappeared.
Mr. Gilman subsequently learned that
a man carrying a valise answering the
description of the one stolen was seen
to enter a saloon at Ninth and K
streets, and notified the police to that
effect.
officer Fisher acted on the informa-
ton and recovered the valise, which
had been left by an unknown man,
who said he would call for it later.
The Chinaman's property was taken to
the station
