 PAIN REMEDY. For over fifty years this wonderful rem edy has proved itself the best, safest and surest antidote for pain in the world.
The True Relief, RADWAYS READY RELIEF
For Internal and External Use.

Tor Internal ana txtorldl USe'
 In using medicines to stop pain, we should avoid such as inf1ict injury on the system. Opium, Morphine, Choroform, Ether, Cocaine and Choral stop pain by destroying the sense of perception, the patient losing the power of feeling. This is most destructive practice; it masks the symptoms shuts up, and instead of re- moving trouble, breaks down the stom- ach, liver and bowels, and if continued for a length of time, kills the nerves and pro- duces local or general paralysis
 There is no necessity for using these un- certain agents when a positive remedy like RADWAY'S READY RELIEF will stop the most excruciatng pain quicker, without entailing the least danger in either infant or adult.
 It instantly stops the most excruciating pains, alays inflammation and cures con- gestions, whether of the Lungs, Stomach, Bowels or other glands or mucous mem- branes.

KEMP A POOR WITNESS.
Does Not Enlighten the Grand Jury
ON the School Scandal.

II was expected that some sensational
testimony would be given by School Di-
rector Kemp before the Grand Jury yes
terday afternoon relating to the 1900
scandal in which his colleagues. Conlon
and Gedge, were mixed up. II was
thought that Kemp. who had been made
the catspaw in the scheme TO appoint a
batch. of new teachers, was going to re-
taliate on q certain member OF the minor
ity who had promised TO make the sew
enth vote necessary to pass the resolu-
tions presented by Kemp at the last
meeting of the board. This seventh mem
promised 10 vote with Kemp II the latter
would give testimony against Conlon and
Gedge before the Grand Jury.
Expectations were not realized. how
ever, as Kemp proved TO be a very poor
and unwilling witness and he did not
enlighten the Grand Jury 10 any great eX-
tent as 20 the methods employed by Con-
Ian and Gedge in exacting tribute from
the stationery contractors for favorable
contracts. Kemp pleaded Ignorance TO a
number of the questions put to him by
the inquisitors. In the matter OF the
contracts awarded to the Weber Furni-
ture Company for $500 for desks the
Grand Jury gathered from the replies OF
Kemp that the Supplies Committee had
awarded the contract TO the company ana
that the rest OF the board knew nothing
about the matter until after IL was al
over. Kemp when asked what had be-
come OF The old desks. answered that he
did not know and in fact, all OF his an
swers were so unsatisfactory that the
Grand Jury was obliged to excuse him.

made charges at the Office Of the COM

attorney asserted that when King went

panied by Deputy Davis, whose presence
seemed 20 back up Kings assertion. The
date OF the alleged interview was October
y sunday. and II was said that the two
went 10 the camp IN the Commissioners

Until yesterday Davis was I'D the bay
on the launch and was unaware of the
CTaTEes maue against him. AT the office
yesterday he stated that he never was on

MRS, STANFORD

At PALO ALTO
Will Arrange Plan of
Endowment.

Attorney Russell ]. Wilson, who has
been in New York as the representative
OF Mrs. Jane L. Stanford. returned home
yesterday. During his absence he has ar
ranged the big deal by which the immense
holdings of Mrs. Stanford in the Southern
and Central Pacific Railroad companies
were disposed Of. although Mr.. Wilson
will not confess that he had much TO do
with it.
II cannot enter into a discussion Of that
transaction" said Attorney Wilson. be
cause 1 would prefer that Mrs stanford
gave her own version OF the affair. Before
leaving New York Mrs. Stanford told me
that she would leave for San Francisco
and would come across the continent by
easy stages. l understand that a. great
deal about the alleged sale OF Mrs. STAN
ford's railroad properties has been sent
here from New York, but am not suffi-
published to say how much Of II Is cor
rect. AS a matter OF fact, although L
have been asked scores OF times: / nave
not yet conceded that Mrs. STANFORD mas
transferred her stock.
''Although / am Mrs. Stanford's attor-
ney, l paid little attention TO the manner
in which her attitude may have anected
the market or the possible bearing IL may
have had on the balance OF the Southern
Pacific stock. My client will be here In
few days and will not spend the winter
in the East. i have no doubt she Will be
pleased to talk about her future plans on
her arrival. Just what she may intend to
do concerning the welfare OF Stanford
University / cannot state. and doubtless
she will not outline her plans until after
her arrival"
II was generally supposed that Mrs.
Stanford would not come to the coast
until after Christmas. and her early re-
turn is taken TO indicate that there are
likely TO be some interesting developments
at Palo Alto. With the conversion Of her
immense railroad holdings into cash Mrs
Stanford is now in position to carry
out her great desire TO endow the
institution founded by her late husband
Just in what manner she may decide TO
invest her fortune for the benefit OF the
university is matter Of great public in
terest and concern, and Attorney Wilson
says that she has not divulged any OF her
intentions. Mrs. Stanford will arrive here
the latter part of next week.
