Volunteers

SAN BERNARDINO, May 24.-Work is
progressing for the enrolment of a troop
of cavalry to join the First regiment, South
ern California volunteer cavalry, COM
manded by Col. tombstone Jones of Los
Angeles. This is to be Troop H, and the
recruiting Is done under the direction of
T. J. Wilson and Geo. s. Pierce, both of
whom are veterans of the late war, on OPP
posite sides. The names are coming in
slowly, as the officers are careful to secure
as far as possible those who will pass the
examining surgeon. W. NJ. Miller, as soon
as he had signed, took a copy of the paper
and started for the desert, promising to
bring in from twenty to thirty hardy rid
ers from that portion of the county. Rev.
]. w. Balm, pastor Of st. Pauls M. E..
church, south, signed the roll as appli-
cant for regimental chaplain.

This the teacher placed in her desk, but
on going there ten minutes later~1t was
gone, and although the principal and a
member of the board of education, who
were present, made strict search of every
scholar present, the money, all in small
change, from pennies to dimes, was no.
found. Some patriotic boy evidently wishes
to build the boat all alone.
The dance given by the ladies of the
Henrietta Hebrew Benevolent society last
night was a success, and of the proceeds

Needles yesterday and arraigned before the
Superior court for assault with deadly
weapon in an attack upon Andrew Smith.
Both were Intoxicated and got to arguing
from words they came to guns, and as
Jerry seemed the most to blame he was
brought In to answer for 1t. He was form
erly barber in this city.
Lewis W. Nay of this city and Maudie
M. Coburn of Cotton have procured Ii
cense and become man and wife accord

The county of San Bernardino has never
owned a flag until last week, when the
board of supervisors purchased a 3O-foot
one, and last evening raised it on a twenty
foot staff, sticking out from the side of
the new extension of the court house. In
about five minutes the flag had made the
attempt to knock corner Off the rough
stone work and large hole was
torn in the flag. 1t was then
taken down and laid away till another
day. The board. in the cause of economy,
object to the expense of a staff on the top
of the building, so the flag can only be
used when the wind does not blow.

making the last prices show striking gains.
 For instance, Burlington sold at 90A and on the next and last sale jumped to 91h. A broad view of the financial world shows that New York was less affected by the crisis than any other financial center. At no time were prices depressed to the London parity. As a consequence there was large ar bitrage selling here of international stocks, New York prices showing a fair profit over London quotations. The depression in London and on con- tinental bourses was more due to the panic in Spanish fours than to any other one cause. These securities fell 3% in London and 9A in Paris on forced liquidation due to financial difficulties in France and Spain.
 Whatever depression there was on the New York exchange seemed to be due to sympathy with the depression in foreign markets. New York absorb ed the offerings of it's own securities for foreign account at prices above those prevailing abroad, and there was no heavy liquidation for local account. It is to be observed that American se-
 curities have held fairly steady as
 compared with the marked weakness
 of Spanish securities. It is also to be observed that weakness in foreign markets is due in part to the dearness of money, and this in turn is caused by the pressure for gold to reinforce | the American money market. The | United States is still heavy creditor | to the world and the continued draw | ing in of these credits, while serving to | fortify the financial fabric at home, is l a factor in the weakness of foreign
 markets.
 | Doubtless a part of the selling in
 New York for foreign account is due
 to an effort to equalize exchange con- | ditions. That these offerings should be so we'll absorbed is a demonstration of l the sound financial conditions existing | in this country. Evidence to the same | effect is given in the case of call mon- | ey, which loaned to-day at per cent.

WEDDING IN NASHVILLE.

An exceedingly pretty wedding last evening was that which took place at the residence of John Brown, Tryon street, Westville, when his eldest daughter, Ada May, and Robert Lin- coin Bremner were united in marriage by the Rev. Harry Blatz, jr. The house was tastefully decorated with palms and blooming plants. At pre- cisely o'clock the bridal party enter ed the parlors to the strains of Lohen- grin's wedding march, played by Miss Lillias Hotchkiss of Waterbury, fiancee of the brides brother, Harvey Brown. The bride, a slender, blonde girl, look ed very lovely in a gown of filmy white, carrying a huge bouquet of bride roses and attended by her sisters the Misses Edith and Bertha Brown, in dainty bridesmaids frocks of white mousselin. There was no best man.
 Although both of the contracting parties have a host of friends, espe- cially in Methodist circles throughout the city, owing to a recent bereave- ment in the brides family only imme- diate relatives and a few intimate friends were bidden to witness the cer- emony.

New York, April 20.-The New York stock market offered firm resistance all day to the depression which was reflected upon it from every other ex- change in the world, it's declines at no time reaching more than a fraction over point for the active stocks. In the final hour. after trading on the for eign bourses had been suspended for the day, there was a lively movement to buy developed on the New York ex- change, which wiped out practically all earlier losses and lifted the level of prices sharply above that of last night. The final recovery was brought about by the dissemination of a ru- mor that the period allowed Spain for a reply to the ultimatum had been ex- tended to Monday, with a chance that a settlement would be effected before that time.

WITHOUT PAIN.
A Medical Discovery That Effeotually
 Cnrea piles in EYArY Enrm

Cures Piles in Every Form.
 For many years physicians have ex- perimented in vain, seeking remedy which would effectually cure piles and other rectal troubles, without resorting to a surgical operation. Many reme- dies were found to give temporary re- lief, but none could be depended upon to make a lasting, satisfactory cure.
 Within a recent period, however, a new remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure, has been repeatedly tested in hundreds of cases and with highly satisfactory results.
 The first effect of the Pyramid Pile Cure is to instantly remove the pain and irritation generally present and from that time on the cure rapidly pro- gresses and before the patient is hard ly aware of it he is entirely cured The remedy seems to act directly on the nerves and blood vessels of the parts affected as 1t comes into direct contact with them and sets up healthy ac- tion, which in a perfectly natural way brings the parts to their normal con- dition.
 The remedy does it's work without any pain or inconvenience to the suf- ferer and is justly considered one of the most meritorious discoveries of modern medicine.
 Piles is one of the most annoying and often times dangerous diseases with which humanity is afflicted If neglected it frequently develops into | fistula or some equally fatal or incur able trouble, whereas by the timely use | of this simple but effective remedy no I one need suffer single day from any form of piles unless they want to. | The Pyramid Pile Cure is perfectly | harmless, containing no mineral pois- ons is also very reasonable in price. It is sold in drug stores everywhere at 50 cents per package. The manufac- turers of the remedy are the Pyramid Drug Co. of Marshall, Mich, who have I placed this excellent preparation before | the public only after giving it thor ough and repeated tests in the hands ot reputable physicians, The results in I hundreds of cases have convinced us I that it will not disappoint you.

COMMANDMENT INSURANCE.

Boston, April 20.-Attorney General Knowlton to-day rendered an opinion relative to the authority of insurance companies to do bombardment insur- ance in this state. The attorney gen. eral holds that the companies cannot insure against the destruction of prop erty by bombardment unless fire en- sues, and the insurance can cover only such part of the loss as would be due to the fire.
 The opinion was given at the request of Frederick L. Cutting, Massachusetts insurance commissioner.
 It is understood that the governor will send to the legislature recom- mendation that something be done to secure legislation permitting lombard ment insurance.

The house was entered by breaking open the door on the south side and after this the north side door was unlocked.
