In some of the Swiss valleys the inhabitants
are all afflicted with goitre or thick neck. p"
Instead of regarding this as a deformity they
seem to think it a natural feature of physical
development. and tourists passing through the
valleys are sometimes jeered by the goitrous in
habitants, because they are without this often
sive swelling. Thus form of disease may be-
come so common that it is regarded as natural
and necessary condition Of life. II is so, TO a
large extent. with what are called diseases OF
women. Every woman suffers more or less from
irregularity liberation, facilitating drains, or
female weakness, and this suffering is so COM
mon and so universal that many women ac-
cept il as a condition natural and necessary to
their sex. But il is condition unnatural a.
unnecessary. The Use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription strengthens the delicate womanll
organs and regulates the womanly functions, 20
that woman Is practically delivered from the
pain and misery which eat up ten years Of her
life-betweeu the ages II fifteen and forth-iive.

strong and sick women well.

scheme, but through the careful investl-
cation of Judge Conlan yesterday he es-
capped, and the record of the woman in
the case will be looked into by the police.
Baxter was arrested Sunday night bv
Policeman Caples on complaint of Myrtle
Powers, 502 Bush street. on the charge
of stealing SIT so from a powder box in
her room. The evidence showed that the
woman accosted Baxter as he passed the
door of the house and took him to her
room. He gave her money to get some
beer, and after she returned she accused
him of stealing $17 80 from her powder
box. He denied it, and she called in the

came to the city with over 800 and ey

SACRAMENTO, June 26.-The fol-
lowing address was issued to-day by
the Fruit Growers Association of Cali
fornia:
To the Deciduous Fruit Growers Sf
California;: We. the board of directors
of the Fruit Growers Association of Cal
ifornia. elected at meeting of the Fruit
Growers of California. held at the city
of Sacramento on June II, 1899 respect
fully submit for your consideration the
following
First-We think it advisable to estab
lish the principal place of business OF the
association al the city of Sacramento, On
account of its central location.
Second-We recommend local fruit
growers organizations in each locality
where any considerable quantity Of fruit
is grown and shipped, such local organ
izatlon to be auxiliary 10 aud Work IN
harmony with the State organization.
rhrd-We believe one of the great
sources of evil in this whole fruit ship
Ierent parts of the State coming into
competition, and to obviate this difficulty
in the future we recommend that all de-
Ciduous fruit be distributed by the man
ager of the State association at Sacra-
mento. Under the present system of
telegraph and telephone communication,
all shipping points IN the State can be in
constant communication with sacramento
and the shipping destinations can De
quickly sent TO any locality where ship
ments are made. In this way the glut
in the Eastern markets can be obviateJ.
because the office in Sacramento will
know where every car has gone ana con-
sequently an over-supply will not De sent
to any locality.
We propose to have our own agents IN
the East to see that the fruit is properly
disposed of and to furnish cars for the
transportation Of the same, charging for
refrigeration service only sufficient to
cover the actual cost, which cost we
guarantee shall be at least a reduction
of from 60 to 70 per cent of present rates.
We believe a plan of this kind will
solve the fruit problem and permit what
profits there may be in fruit growing to
go into the pockets of the growers instead
of into those of the commission men.
Let every frut-growing locality in the
State organize and take stock in the
State organization, and as soon as the
total amount of stock so subscribed shall
amount to the sum of $500 900 the board
Of directors will proceed to incorporate.
elect officers and be ready to transact
business; but in no event shall the time
for receiving said subscription sum Of
$500 900 be extended beyond the 10th day
of January 1900.

VENTILATOR CAR SERVICE.
Proposition Said to Have Been Made
to Wells-Fargo.

NEWCASTLE, June ga rumor is in
circulation that proposition has been
made by the fruit growers to Wells,
Fargo & Co. to put on a ventilator
car service for fruit shipments to Chi
cago. st. Paul. Denver, Helena, New
York and Boston, the cars to be attached
to passenger trains through to destina-
ton. 1t is claimed that by the use of
ventilated fruit cars and the difference
of time made by the passenger train serv-
ice. fruit will arrive at its destination in
as good shape, if not in better shape.
than by the present system of refrigera-
ton. The charges on carload lots will
be brought down very close to the pres
ent refrigerator charges, and possibly as
low.
The growers believe that, owing 10
many instances during the season Of di-
verting cars caused ny sudden changes in
prices and overstocking the markets.
considerable expense can be saved The
cars would reach their destination almost
before any sudden changes could cause
great harm. Furthermore there woiIlj
be but little chance of overstockinC the
markets as shipments could be better
regulated.
Several prominent growers have ex-
pressed the opinion that ventilators have
been used heretofore by slow freight and
1t would certainly be a success now bv
express. If the proposition meets the ap-
prevail of the express company it will
be TO the growers advantage All ex-
press a hope that the express company
Will take a decisive action and that the
proposition will be carried through

ADVERTISEMENTS.

Hnen have changed radically since
those days. The modern man does not
admire the fainting woman, neither does he
marry her. If by chance he does he is
only man, and lives to regret it There is
no reason why any woman should be a faint
ing woman. General bodily weakness and
nervousness in women are due to weakness
or disease of the delicate, special organs of
the sex. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription

disorders of this description. 1t imparts

WATSONVILLE. June 26.-The apple
raisers and shippers OF this valley are
seriously affected by the new freight
rate just put into effect on that class of
fruit Last year the shipments TO points
east of California amounted to over 6ja
carloads and with the rapid increase in
bearing young orchards the annual ship

heavy and will compete with our Belle

cannot take more than small fraction
Of the Bellefieurs. and they will have -

under the new schedule will cut the f. O.

profits close. and the additional freight
rate testimated in the aggregate this year
at about $4,000 will practically remove
them.
The orchardists and shippers have pre-
pared memorial to the Southern Pacific
Company celebrating on the facts set
forth here and will present it to the
proper officers of the company. They
also request that the old freight rate on
apples, based on actual weight, be re
stored. and that the company place track
scales at jacksonville depot. The petit
ton is being signed by every orchardist
and shipper in Pajaro Valley.
