DIED FROM EATING
 POISONED FOOD Fate of Aged Mrs. Rus sell at Fresno. NARROW ESCAPE OF HER SON PARTooK OF BOTH MUsH AND CANNED OYSTERS. Mush Made of Refuse Meal by the Old Lady, Whose Son Had
 Bought It for Chicken
 Feed.
NARROW ESCAPE OF HER SON
PARTooK OF BOTH MUsH AMI
 CANNED OYSTERS.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO, Oct. 1S-An old lady, Mrs. Resilla Russell, died at her home on Harvey avenue, Belmont Addition, this evening from the effects Of eating poisoned food. It is not known whether her death was due to the eating of tainted oysters or poisonous mush. It is quite evident, however, that her death was caused by partaking Of either the oysters or the mush, as she became deathly sick shortly after breakfast and an invalid son of the old lady was similarly affected, but in his case the illness was of a milder form.
 Last night one of her sons brought home from a restaurant some canned oysters The can had been opened and a quantity of the contents used. The son thought that the remainder would be nice for his aged mother. It is quite likely that the oysters became tainted on account of their exposure to the air. It might have been the mush, however, that was the death-dealing food, as one of the sons had bought the meal, which was refuse stuff, for chicken food. He did not intend that it should have been cooked. but he placed it where his mother saw 1t and as she was near sighted she made mush of 1t, which she and the son who was taken sick ate. She died several hours afterward

For ten minutes the middies filed past the President, shak- ing his hand. Then taking a position at the end of the hall he addressed the blue Jackets briefly. While the cheer ing still continued the President ex- cused himself and departed. He was driven at once to the McWilliams resi- dence on Lake avenue and retired soon after

GRAND BALL TO AID
 SOLDIERS AND SAILORS

CHICAGO, Oct. 1S.-Four thousand reople danced at the Auditorium to- night for the benefit of the suffering sailors and soldiers, and it was a per- feet success. A small festoon of Ameri- can beauty roses hung before the box from which President Mckinley viewed the ball, and directly opposite similar decoration was nlaced beneath the box in which the Chinese and Korean Min isters were seated. The hour for the reception of the President and the dis tinguished guests was 10:30 D. m. The hall was draped with red, white and blue strips across the entire roof. Punctual to the minute the President appeared. Chairman Truax and the Jubilee committee were also present Mayor Harrison was on his left. The orchestra rendered The Star Spangled Banner" and all in the hall remained standing as the Presidential party made its way across the floor.
 The ceremony of presenting being over the President made his way to the box reserved for him, the audience ap- plauding enthusiastically He left the hall after midnight, going to the resi- dence of Captain Williams. About s25. 900 was realized for the benefit of fha soldiers and sailors.

INSURGENTS NOT DANGEROUS
THEY WOULD HAVE NO CHANGE
 AGAINST AMERICANS.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VICTORIA, B. C., Oct. 1S.-On board the steamer Empress of Japan. which arrived this afternoon from the Orient was Major Tilden of the First Califor- mia Volunteers and pr. Lewis of the Red Cross Society. two well-known San Franciscans who are on their way home from Manila on leave.
 Major Tilden says things are still in statu quo at Manila, in fact they have changed but little since the armistice was declared. As for the fears of trouble between the Americans and the Philippine insurgents. he thinks that there Is scarcely any need for uneasi- ness on that score, for although the in- surgents might have done well with the backing of the Americans against the Spanish, they would not last longer than an iceberg at the equator in a conflict with the Americans.
 A large number of Californians. some sick and some wounded, are en route home, the major says on the hospital ship Rio de Janeiro, which left Hong kong several days before the Empress.
 He speaks In glowing terms of Sol N. Sheridan, The Calls correspondent, whom he met for the first time under fire in the rebel trenches, where, not withstanding the danger, the brave cor respondent had gone in search of re- liable news for his paper.
 The Empress of Japan brings a bud get of Manila news. There was con- siderable excitement there prior to the departure of the last mail for Hong kong over the reported sale of Palawan and part of the Sulu group to Germany by Spain. The story of the sale was, however, afterward denied by the Ger man Consul, but still many of the Ori- ental papers refused to take his denial. and many lengthy editorials appeared

TO CURE NERVOUS DYSPEPSIA.
To GaIn Flesh, to Sleep We'll, to Know What Appetite and Good Digestion Mean. Make a Test of Stuart's Dys-
 pepsIa Tablets.
Interesting Experience of an lndl-
 annapolis Gentleman.

No trouble is more common or more misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia. People having 1t think that their nerves are to blame, are surprised that they are not cured by nerve medicines and spring remedies; the real seat of mis- chief Is lost sight of; the stomach is the origin to be looked after.
 Nervous dyspeptics often do not have any pain whatever in the stomach, nor perhaps any of the usual symptoms of stomach weakness. Nervous dyspep- sia shows itself not in the stomach so much as in nearly every other organ; in some cases the heart palpitateS and is irregular; in others the kidneys are affected; in others the bowels are con- stipated, with headache; still others are troubled with loss of flesh and ap- petite with the accumulation of gas, sour risings and heartburn.
 MT. A. w. Sharper of No 61 Pros pect street, Indianapolis, Ind, writes as follows: "A motive of pure grati- tude prompts me to write these few lines regarding the new and valuable medicine, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been a sufferer from nervous dyspepsia for the last four years; have used various patent medicines and other remedies without any favorable result They sometimes gave tempor- ary relief until the effects of the medi- cine wore off. I attributed this to my sedehtary habits, being a bookkeeper with little physical exercise. but I am glad 10 state that the tablets have ov- ercome all these obstacles, for I have gained in flesh, sleep better, and am better in every way. The above is written not for notoriety. but is based OIi dcluai facts. Respectfully yours,
