THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but
also to the care and skin with which
it is manufactured by scientific proc
esses known to the CALIFORNIA FIG
SYRUP Co. only, and we wish to i'm
press upon all the Importance Of pur-
chasing the true and original RENE
dy. As the genuine Syrup of Figsis
manufactured by the CALIFoRNrA
FIG SYRUP Co. only, knowledge of
that fact win assist one in avoiding
che worthless limitations manufact-
ured by other parties. The high
standing of the CALIFORNIA FlG
SYRUP Co. with the medical profess
sion, and dissatisfaction which the
genuine Syrup Of Figs has given to
millions of families makes the name
of the Company guaranty of the ex-
cellence of its remedy. 1t is far in ad-
vance of all other laXatives, as it acts
on the kidneys, liver and bowels
without irritating or weakening
them, and it does not grippe nor nau-
seate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name

May Finish Here.

h termination of the fight between
Sharkey and Jefferies in San Francisco
was very unsatisfactory to the sporting
fraternity of San Francisco. Both men
were on their feet fighting at the end of
the Goth round and ready to fight more if
called on. 1t vas not a finish fight and
still the question - to which is tie bet
ter man is no nearer settled than it was
prior to the match.
The only way the fact can be definitely
settled is in a finish fight in this city.

lot of spectators to the Receiving Hospi-

EXAMINATION DAY.
The Doctors Busy With the
Soldiers.

Yesterday the men who enlisted were
subjected to a rigid physical examination
by Drs. Lee, Guinan and Huffaker.
There We're some sad hearts when the re-
suit was announced. Quite a number
were rejected because they were too tall
or weighed too much. The rejected men
pleaded hard to be allowed to pass, out
the examiners had cast-iron Government
rules to follow, and they followed them
to the letter. Yesterday the Governor
received the following from Cheyenne:
Reinhold Sadler:-Do not forward n
recruits for Second L. S. Volunteer cav
airy until further advised. Captain
Torrev arrives tomorrow to fix details.

Omaha Exposition or Bust.

Col. H, b. MaxOn arrived here last
night with his special car and put in the
day gathering up EIko county's exhibits
to the Omaha Exposition. He has sue
ceeded in collecting about 10000 pounds
of ore, soap, grain, flour, and other pro-
ducts of Nevada for Nevada's exhibit
and will make an excellent showing
considering that he has had no funds to
on outside of his own PR ate purse. He
has a splendid exhibit of Nevala's min
eral and agricultural resources that will
open the eyes of those who nave been
taught to look upon Nevada as a vast
desert and a series of deserted mining
camps.
The Col. takes with him several large
plants OF sage brush which he will place
cOnSpicuously in the exhibit as a contrast
to the productions of the soil when
brought under cultivation by irrigation.

from Nevada feel at home when taking

Col. NaNOn has succeeded under great
difficulties in collecting an exhibit of
NeNada'S products that is sure to be of
great benefit to the State as an ADVERTISE
ment of what it does and can produce.
For his service in this work he deserves
the hearty support of our people and is
entitled to all the assistance tina can be
rendered him. The press of the State
has done its share and h"r citizens should

hibit a grand success.

WAS GROUND TO DEATH
TERRIBLE FATE OF G. BALOVICH,
A LABORER
TWO OTHER MEN INJURED
They Had Been Excavating Under a
Green Wall and the Bricks Caved
in on Them

BY the undermining and too early use of
green" wall yesterday one man was
killed, two others seriously hurt and three
more narrowly escaped injury by cave
in on Broadway. The accident occurred
shortly before 10 o'clock on the property of
II. Martz, just south of the chamber of
commerce, where the foundation of a new
building is being constructed. G. Balo-
vich. Slovenian labYer was the man
killed. Those injured were Anton Pusich
the foreman of the gang, and M. Lowbank
The excavation for the building is very
extensive and the outer walls have only
been completed to the leevl of the street.
Martz has had charge of the construction
of the foundations, having discharged his
architect some time ago, doubtless think
ing he could get along without any. AT
the rear of the property line was an alley
way and Martz had obtained permission
to build boiler room under part of this
alley. The recess in which the boiler was
to be placed had been dug out and walled
up by 26-inch walls of brick, which had
been completed Saturday last. Martz had
let out the various contracts about the

was caught near the inner wall by bricks
and a joist and etrribly injured, being
buried to the waist. His pelvis bone was
broken and the muscles of his back were
bruised. Lowbank had been near Pusich.
and he was damned against the wall, but
fortunately was not caught by one of the
joists, SO escaped as serious injury as be-
Oh his foreman. All the other men, who
were Slavonians and had begun work that
morning, were struck by bricks and sew
eral were buried to their knees, but they
managed to dig themselvs out without
having to wait for assistance.
The body of Balovich was nearly buried
from sight, and the instant that the other
men about the property knew what had
happened they hurried to the place and
began to extricate Pusich and the body
Life had been crushed out of Balovich,
however, and the corpse was removed to
the undertaking rooms Of Bresee Bros,
where Coroner Campbell will hold an in
quest this morning at 10 o'clock. Pusich and
Lowbank were removed to the receiving
hospital, where Dr. Hagan attended them.
Pusich was later removed to his home at
Ill Buena Vista street, while Lowbank was
taken to the county hospital. While Pu-
SIGN injuries are very serious, IL is not
thought they will prove fatal. But little
was known about the dead man except
that he had come to this city recently from
San Diego.
The question of blame for the affair will
of course probably be determined by the
coroner's jury today. Pusich denied that
he or his men had been warned to keep
away from the wall and as the gang had
been engaged for several hours in exca-
waiting the hole for the reception of the
oil tank, it would appear that they were
working there under the orders or with
the consent of Martz or Hill. Mr.. Hill
stated that anybody ought to have known
enough to keep away from wall as green
as the one that caved in was. w. S. STRAIT
ton, the city superintendent of buildings,
said that the mortar was if anything too
good. 1t had more lime and less sand in
it than is usually mixed in mortar. He de-
clned to venture any opinion as to who

the platform and the others throwing the
earth over the rear wall and out of the
recess There had been a small space left
between the rear wall and the bank, and
the workmen were filling this up with the
earth from the tank hole, and the earth
pressing against the wall probably did
much to loosen it. The tank hole had been
dug under the wall, howeer and as the
plaster and brick were wet and ont solid,
the wall gave way beneath the various
strains put upon 1t and the lack Of support
underneath and sagged down and then COL
lapsed, tumbling inside onto the gang of
workmen.
Balovich and another man were on the
platform, while four others, including Pu-
SIGH, were below, throwing up the dirt.
The first intimation any Of them had of
danger was when the platform began to
sway followed almost Immediately by the
collapse of the wall. The heavy iron ioists
contributed largel yto the wallis giving
away and they fell down with the bricks

brick and iron, pinned against corner
wall and killed almost instantly. Pusich
