STATE SCHOOL MONEYS.
A Number of Counties Receive
More Than They Pay Out.

The following table obtained from
Controller Colgan's office shows the pro-
portion of money paid to the State for
the support of the common school by
each county and the amount each coun-
ty receives back in return for the sup
port of it's schools.
1t will be seen that Alpine, Colusa,
Contra Costa, Del Norte, Glenn, Kern,
MADEIRA, Marin, Merced, Mono. Sacra-
mento. San Francisco, San Joaquin, San
Mateo. Santa Clara, Siskiyou, So
lano, Sonoma, Stanislaus, Sutter and
Yolo counties pay into the State treas
ury more than they draw out, while
Fresno, Monterey, Napa and Tehama
pay in nearly all they receive. AS San
Louis Obispo has not yet settled with
the State, it is not stated what she pays
in.
BY the operation of the law govern
ing school apportionments the weak
counties of the State receive from the
surplusage paid in by the richer coun-
ties sufficient to enable them to sup
port their schools properly.

SIZE TOOK 4 DOSE OF POISON.
JENNIE CoNLEY WEARY OF
LIFE'S STRUGGLE.
Sickness and Dependency Cause
Her to Take Two Ounces or
Laudanum.

Lying on a cot in the Receiving Hos
Iital last night was young woman
named Jennie Conley apparently in the
throes of death. There was no one OF
her own sex to attend her, but the
officers of the Jail, under the direction
Of City Physician Nichols, were doing
all In their power to relieve her suffer
ings and to save her life.
The woman had swallowed about two
ounces of laudanum in her room at 13C
K street, and after she had been re-
lieved of the poison she rallied suffi-
GENTLY to tell the doctor and those
about her that she had tried to kill her
self.
Dr. Nichols recognized in her a pa
tient whom he had been treating for
lung trouble, and she told HIM she
had wearied of trying to regain he1
health and was anxious to die. If she
did not succeed this time, she would
try again.
She said her name was Jennie Con-
ley, and that she was a daughter of a
former Sheriff of San Francisco. One
who knows her informed a Record
Union" reporter that some years age
she was married in Vallejo to a man
named Charles Wesser. They came to
Sacramento and for time conducted
a restaurant on lower K street, but
afterward removed to Fresno. From
the latter place the woman returned
alcne to this city and has been known
by her maiden name.
She had been in poor health and
lately had frequent henorrhages, which
had thoroughly discouraged her There
was young man with her at the time
she took the poison, but he declares
he did not see her take the dose, and
that he knew nothing Of it until she
told him what she had done and showed
him the empty bottle.
AS soon as the police were Informed
the patrol wagon was sent for her and
she was taken to the Receiving Hospi-
tai, and City Physician Nichols called
TO attend her.
After the laudanum had been extract
ed from her stomach she rallied, but
afterward sunk into a doze from which
she could not be aroused, and at mid

Funeral of Miss Bruner.

There were number of friends of the
late Effie Maud Bruner at the buria
service held yesterday in the undertak-
Ing parlors of Miller & McMullen, al
which Rev. S. J. Carroll delivered very
touching address. Many beautiful
floral pieces were in evidence, attesting
the love and esteem in which the de-
ceased was held. The pall-bearers were
Frank Gregory, c. A. Bliss, V. S. Nc
Clatchy and c. K. McClatchy
Miss Bruner was the daughter of AL
vim ]. and the late Martha Headen-
Bruner, and for long time had been an
invalid. Her patience in suffering and
resignation to the fate that was so in
evitable endeared her to all who knew
Of her illness.

He says he took the bags from a
truck at the depot, on which they had
been placed for transfer from the Plac-
erville train to some other train or to
the Postoffice. The theft was commit
ted just at dusk and he was able to
get away without being seen.
Officers Douglas and Pennish are
likely to be we'll rewarded for their
clever work. The Postoffice Depart
ment at Washington has a standing
reward of 81 900 for the arrest and con-
viction of any person for robbing the
mails while en- route from one place

The officers have certainly done good
work in the case and deserve a liberal

NO FAITH CURE
ABOUT STUART'S DYSPEPSIA TAB
LETS.
They Cure Stomach Troubles and Indi-
gestion Anyway, Whether You Have
Faith in Them or Not.

They Cure Stomach Troubles and Indi-
Faith in Them or Not.
All physicians agree that the element
of faith has a great deal to do in the
cure of disease
Firm belief and confidence in a fam
lily physician or the same confidence
and faith in patent medicine have
produced remarkable cures in all ages.
This is especially true in nervous
troubles, and no field offers so prolific
a harvest for the quack and charlatan
as the diseases arising from a weak
or rundown nervous system.
Nevertheless, the most common of
all diseases indigestion and stomach
troubles, which in turn cause nervous
diseases, heart troubles, consumption
and loss of flesh. requires something
besides faith to cure.
Mere faith will not digest your food
for you, will not give you an appetite,
will not increase your flesh and
strengthen your nerves and heart, but
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will do these
things, because they are composed OF
the elements of digestion; they contain
the JulC0S, dCiuS dliQ ptplOIicS uCSCo~
sary to the digestion and assiulilation
of all wholesome food.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
food If placed in a jar or bottle in
water heated to 9S degrees, and they
will do it much more effectively when
taken into the stomach after meals,
whether you have faith that they will
or not.
They invigorate the stomach, make
pure blood and strong nerves, in the
only way that nature can do it, and
that is, from plenty Of wholesome food
well digested. 1t is not what We eat,
but what we digest that does US good.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists at so cents for full-sized
package.

THE: TRUTH!

The poor mortals who know
in their innermost hearts that
they are not men in the best
sense OF the word get dishearten-
ed because they are often given
to understand that their cases
are incurable when they are not.
1t is true that nothing except
that grand remedio-treatment,
"EIudyan," is infallible, but that
really seems to be equal to all
cases. Not only is life, vitality,
strength and vigor restored by
it, but it corrects the faults
which erring mortals are sub
ject to. 1t corrects them un-
failingly; it replaces the strength
that has been lost; it makes life
again worth living. 1t does this
always. 1t has done it for nearly
