vanishes when Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets are tried. Whether the trouble is
dyspepsia of long standing, or merely a
simple case of indigestion, relief is prompt
and pronounced. The less the trouble the
fewer tablets need be taken.
Heaviness after eating, sour stomach,
as indicated by belching, fatigue with
slight exeruon, or with no exertion at all,
disturbed sleep, nervousness, constipa-
ton, depression, blues" these things can
commonly be set down as symptoms Of
dyspepsia And dyspepsia is merely indi-
gestion in an aggravated form.
BY promoting perfect digestion, Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets produce strong nerves,
restful, refreshing sleep, pure blood and
good, sound healthy flesh. They make
the skin clear, the eyes bright, the mind
cheerful.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a medi-
cine and more than a medicine. They di-
gest the food and make it easy of assimi-
lation, and they relieve the inflamed, dis
eased condition of the membraneous lin
ings and the glands of the stomach and
bowels. They help the digestive organs
over the hard places, and put them into
healthy, active condition. They effect
quick and permanent cure. You don't

$4,000 SPENT ONFURNITURE
SUPERFLUOUS SUPPLIES FROM
FAVORED DEALERS.

A meeting Of the Finance Committee of
the School Board last Friday evening de-
veloped another scandal in the board, in
volving Directors Conlon and Gedge, and
which may have serious results SO far as
city finances are concerned.
In auditing the various bills presented
to the board the committee discovered
that the Supplies Committee, of which
Conlon and Gedge are members, had is
sued acquisitions for school furniture
amounting IN value to more than $4,000
The acquisitions had been recommended
by Conlon and Gedge, but had never been
authorized by the board.
Conlon was brought before the Finance
Committee and positively denied all
knowledge of thematter. According to one
of the members of the committee, how
ever, this denial was a lie, for an inspec-
tor examined the acquisitions and discov-
cred that Conlon authorized them and
placed them with the firm of c. F. Weber
& Co., who furnished the goods to the
various schools. The inspector was sent
to the different schools of the city and
found that the supplies had been deliv-
cred and were in use.
A special meeting of the Finance Com
mittee has been called for Tuesday night
when the matter will be carefully looked
into and report will be made to the full
board setting forth the facts.
Since the School Board is in difficulties
regarding finances and can scarcely carry
on the schools from month to month the
present exposure of a debt of $4,000 will
bring grave trouble to the school system
of the city, and may have serious results

HUNGER STALKS
THROUGH PEST
HOUSE WARDS
No Food Remains for
the UnCIean.

Official neglect is responsible for con-
dition Of affairs at the Pesthouse, which
has developed into one of the greatest
public outrages committed in the annals
of the municipal government. All day
Friday, it became known yesterday, the
unclean and dying lepers at this institu-
ton, which has long been a disgrace, lay
picking at their coverlets. hungry and
miserable. Nine of these unfortunates
burning away with the most loathsome
disease that aff1icts the human flesh, had
to be content with a meager portion each
of mush Of poorest quality, while the
same lot fell to Mrs. A. G.. ellison, confined
in the institution with smallpox, and four
teen attendants. These people, all of them
unfortunate. the attendants martyrs to
their calling, the smallpox patient pitiful
in her distress, and the lepers, the ac-
cursed Of the earth, are all prisoners be-
meath the yellow flag. Friday, when all
the food had been consumed, an effort to
, reach the officials was made that their
plight might be made known. AS usual,
the critical period found the telephone
out Of order. 1t was finally repaired yes
terday and DR.. Lawlor Of the Board Of
Health notified After being notified,
however, there was nothing to be done.
The physicians hands were tied as only
last week the Board Of Supervisors gave
notice that all creditors of the city would
be held strictly within the reading of the
one-tWelfth act The merchants who
supplied the City and County Hospital
and the PeSthOuSe nave as yet received
no money for the months of August and
,September, and naturally they refused to
send out necessary supplies. AS a last
resort a subscription was taken up among
the attaches of the Board of Health. Each
subscribed to the good cause several
pieces of gold were raised and a man was
Immediately dispatched to the home of
the lepers with provisions. He was met
at the gate by one of the attendants, who
gladly accepted the food, which will last
until this morning. Another subscription
must then be taken up unless some chart
tably inclined citizen comes forward,
takes hold OF the matter and supplies the
inmates with food.
Another part of the outrage is that the
coal with which to keep the suffering in
mates warm is about exhausted There
seems to be no hope for replenishing the
supply in the near future and the outlook
is rather hopeless. DR.. Lawlor of the
Board of Health is disgusted. and rightly
so, at the action of Mayor Phean and the
Board of Supervisors in neglecting the
public institutions. Receiving hospitals
have been closed, medicines have been
begged and there is no food for the starv-
ing inmates. DR.. Lawlor has done all he
can, he says, on behalf OF the suffering
poor. but now the Board of Supervisors
must show that it is not afraid to do
right, although 1t would be contrary to
usual practice, and see that the wrongs of
the past are unknown in the future

Shortly after l o'clock yesterday Barne-
son went to the bank and drew the
amount which was afterward stolen from
his buggy. 1t was intended for his BROTH
er, who was anxious to consummate some
mining deal. The money, which was in $40
gold pieces, was placed in canvas sack
and deposited under the seat of the buggy.
Barneson, after leaving the bank, drove
up Market street. When in front OF Ihe
Call building his attention was ATTRACTED
to the immense crowds that were readlnS
the bulletins Of the great yacht race. AnX-
ious to see how the race was going,
Barneson pulled up his horse and eagerly
scanned the bulletins.
While he was thus engaged an unknown
thief climbed into the buggy and got away
with the sack of money. Barneson dls-
covered his loss few minutes later ana
at once notified the police. Several de-
tectiveS were Immediately sent to hunt
for the culprit, but up to a late hour last
night they had not succeeded in getting

The police are inclined to think that the

bank and waited his opportunity to steal
the sack OF coin. 1t came when Barneson
stopped to read the bulletins of the yacht
race.
