NEW YORK, May ia cable to the
Journal from Rome says: This is
translation of the Pope's bull, ordering
year OF jubilee to celebrate the aus
picious closing of the nineteenth cen
tury:
Leo to the Bishops and servants OF
God; to all faithful Christians, salutation
and benediction:
The proximity Of the end OF the cen
tury, which, through the grace OF God,
we have nearly passed, has decided US TO
order action which will serve toward the
salvation Of Christian people and per-
haps be the last act Cf our ministry. We
wish TO declare that grand jubilee. inSti
tuted since ancient time, and which has
come to Us under the name Of the holy
year, whether because 1t ought 10 be ac-
companied by numerous holy ceremonies
or, above all. because il furnishes
greater means for correcting morals and
leading souls to holiness.
We have seen many benefits arising
from the last jubilee under the POntih
cate OF Leo XII. At that epoch religious
manifestations occurred in Rome, making
the city a veritable ground Of God.
In spirit let US recall the crowd of pill
grims, the multitude OF the faithful visit
ing temples in professions, the sacred
orators who spoke 10 the public. the Pom
tiff himself, surrounded by Cardinals. Civ
ing examples of piety and charity.
Alas these thoughts carry with them
grief, seeing the present time so differ
GHl. T pEIltT SOleIUIlIlcS cannot De re-
newed to-day, because the condition Of
Rome is so changed. Let US hope how
ever. that God viii grant success for
this our celebration, undertaken only for
his glory. wherein we desire nothing other
than TO facilitate that eternal salvation
provided for the diseases Of the soul in
the remedies Jesus has placed in our
hands That is the duty OF our office and
the necessity of the time
One cannot say this century has been
sterile in good works and Christian vir-
tues On the contrary. by the grace Of
God We have an abundance of illustrious
examples. There are no exalted virtues
in which many men have not signalized
themselves. because the Christian religion
has obtained from God continued fruition
OF these virtues.
At the same time. what blind errors
have prevailed How many people are
running toward eternal ruin! What grief
for our hearts 10 see how many Christ
ians seduced by license of thought, are
losing every day the great gift of faith!
1t is difficult to express what injury these
habits OF thought have inL4cted upon the
foundations OF society.
Rebellious souls, full OF bad tendencies
and cupidities, are taking part in dan
gerous and dreadful struggle, without
law. aiming TO seize the goods OF this
world.

GOLD DISCOVERY
STARTS A RUSH
Placer Strike in Lower
California.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN DIEGO, May 13.-Not since the
days of the Almo excitement in Lower
California has there been such stam-
pede Of men to new placer camp as
that which is now under way TO the
Santa Clara diggings, 400 miles south of
this city, and fifteen miles back from
the coast. Superintendent Swayne of
the Ibarra Gold Mining Company at
Calmaln, sent runner 200 miles TO the
telegraph office at San Quintin with a
message to the agents of the company
IN this city, notifying them that the
200 or more men in the companys en-
ploy had gone TO the Santa Clara dig
gings, leaving CalmalH' deserted, and
in consequence the Ibarra mines have
been closed.
The principal reason for the sending
of the dispatch was TO notify the COM
pany's agents here not to ship machin-
cry and freight for CalmaIn on the
steamer St. Denis, which sails tonight,
for no means OF getting it from the
landing at Santo Domingo to CalmaIIi,
a distance of sixty miles, would be
available, all the men having struck out
for the new diggings.
Santa Clara is a sparsely settled part
of Lower California and has no means
Of communication with the outside
world except by trail to CalmalIi and TO
Santo Domingo, where the steamer St
Denis touches every month.
The first reports of the placer discov-
cry were brought up by the schooner
Anita two or three weeks ago. At that
time there were said 10 be 500 men in
the new diggings, many having gone
from Santa Rosalia, on the gulf coast.
Several men at Los Angeles and Santa
Ana. Cal. have made arrangements to
go to Santa Clara, sailing from here for
San Rogue Bay. The diggings are only
fifteen miles inland from that landing.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED.
THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY
TESTED.
Results of the Test in Various Forms
of Dyspepsia.

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia,
while a. very common trouble, has for
some time been looked upon by able
physicians as a very serious thing, and
that no time should be lost in treating
ii properly at the start, because recent
researches have shown that the most
serious. fatal and incurable diseases
have their origin in simple dyspepsia
or indigestion.
Diabetes is simply one form of indi-
gestion, the sugar and starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
gans In Brights disease the albumen
is not properly assfmilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia
are twin diseases it is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for
the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to find a
remedy that could be depended upon to
cure dyspepsia, as it is notoriously OBJ
stinate and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which
has puzzled physicians and dyspeptics
alike, until the question was solved
three years ago by the appearance of
the new dyspepsia cure in the medical
world known as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. which 1t was claimed was a
certain reliable cure for every form of
stomach trouble.
Physicians. however, would not ac-
cent Sucn statements WITHOUT uTSC CIV
ing the new remedy many tests and
carefully observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of
the country and with surprising and
satisfactory results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can hon
estly be claimed TO be a specific, a radi-
caI lasting cure for indigestion in the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or sour
stomach. gas or wind on the stomach,
too much bile. undue fullnesS or depres-
sion after eating and similar symptoms
resulting from disordered digestion
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets were not
placed before the public until this
three years trial left no doubt as to
their value and they have recently been
placed in the trade and can be found
at all druggists at the nominal price of
so cents per package.
