An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants. by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please

MYSTERIOUS YOUNG WOMAN
Goes to the Front in Male Attire in
IuZOu.

San Francisco, Dec. 16-The trans
port City of Para from Manila brought
an interesting story of the escapades of
Miss Bebee Dean, a mysterious young
woman. who in male attire slowed
away in the ship and succeeded in
reaching Manila despite the vigilance
of Col Harding and other officers
She escaped from the City of Para
while under heavy guard in Manila
harbor and was not seen again untu
week later, when, dressed in khaki
suit and wearing a campaign hat she
made a formal call aboard ship.
Miss Dean was not a regular stow
away. On the day the City Of Para
left San Francisco for Manila with the
Twenty-ninth infantry, Miss Dean was
given the position of cabin boy. both
captain and steward being deceived as
to her sex.
Before Honolulu was reached. her se-
cret was discovered. and she was put
ashore on the islands. She managed ID
get aboard again, but was discovered
before Manila was reached Col Hard
ing kept her as prisoner under guard

about 20 minutes exercise day Al
though the colonel intended turning her
over to the authorities at Manila for
transportation back. Miss Dean slipped
her guards, and landed in Manila. where

this temple, beginning on Wednesday
and continuing over Sunday Sunday
afternoon a large assembly had gather

Rev. John Crum. He paused in the
midst of a sermon of great elOquence,
which had produced a most profound
impression. There was intense still

broken by a tremendous voice bursting
forth and giving utterance to but one
word, salvation" followed by a shout
which filled the people with awe.
Men leaOed to their feet women
screamed and children cried out in
fright. All eyes were turned in the di

there no one knew, although dressed in
a garb different from any seen in the

cast.
A TWO-THOUSAND- RING
The most valuable of the stolen rings,
and the one that Mrs. Hanna priced
mist highly, was set with three mag
niticent diamonds. one of them is
canary-colored stone, and is very rare
1t was hanked on either side by two
pure white diamonds This ring was
valued at 81. O0O \ Sunburst which was
also stolen was about one and a quar-

an unknown number of diamonds. The
size of the stones varied, but they We're

the exception of one ring the size of the
stones in the settings is unknown.
Mrs. Hanna has very small fingers and

the missing gems she called attention
to this fact
In addition to the rings and sun
burst about 500 was stolen from Mrs
Hanna's dresser. Since the robbery ev-

cover the stolen property and bring the
guilty person or persons to justice.
1t is now known here that a case

New Homestead Hotel as a fireman. 1t
seems that a sort of fire department
is maintained at the resort, and the
former Cincinnati man was some time
go installed as chief. He came to Hot
Springs with good recommendations,
and experienced little trouble in in
gratiating himself into the good graces
of Manager Sterry. One of his duties
IS to make periodical tours through the
hotel and grounds and look after the
fire apparatus and escapes. In order
to do this he has been equipped with
pass keys to every room in the hotel
In fact, no part of it was not accessible
to him. Chambermaids and other at
taches Of the hotels have keys to rooms,
but the ex-Cincinnatian is the only
person who had keys to all rooms.
Previous to the theft Of Mrs. Hanna's
gems there had been for a long time
systematic stealing in the hotel. So no

QUEEN YICTORIA's INCOME

TFrom the New York Tribune
The wealth Of the Queen Of England
is vast. 1t can not be accurately com
puted partly because there is no one
person who is cOgnizant of all of her
sources Of income. In fact. what is
known to the public is vast, while
there is much which is known only Of
ficially and is kept confidential. She
still draws as the widow of Prince Al
bert 100000 which was annually allow
ed him by Parliament. She has also
inherited the private fortune of her
mother, the late Duchess of Kent, and
which brings in Il yearly income Of
&8.003. It is known that she receives
a yearly income of $500, 600, which goes
into her private purse without regard to
any of the revenues accruing to her Of
flee or for the support of her royalty.
It is certain that Victoria has saved
a large private fortune. This is out
side of the amounts set aside for the
proper support of each member of the
royal family, each one of whom has a
separate allowance. Many individuals
have been known to make bequests in
favor of the queen, which have been
large fortunes.
Besides the money wealth of the
Queen, her collection of jewels alone is
prOdigiOus. Her gold plate. which is
used only at court festivities. is esti-
mated as of vast value, and consists
chiefly of dishes. fagOns, shields and
stands, and is the results Of years of
accumulation of former monarchs

ture, ornaments, wearing apparel and
