Tunnels.

A New York newspaper remarks that
ferries came and ferries go, bridges
rise and bridges fall, but tunnels last
forever" There is scientific truth in
the observation. Of all works of man
earthworks, plain earth mounds sodded
over, are about the most enduring. A
constructed tunnel is essen
TALLY work in earth and so almost as

No Noxious Doses. No Weakening of the
Nerves. A Pleasant and Positive Cure
for the Liquor Habit.
1t is now generally known and under
stood that drunkenness is disease and
not a weakness. A body filled with
poison, and nerves completely shatter-
ed by periodical or constant use of in
toxicating liquors, requires an antidote
capable of neutralizing and eradicating
thispoison, and destroying the craving
for intoxicants. Sufferers may now
cure themselves at home without pub
licity or loss of time from business by
this wonderful "HOME GOLD CURE, :"
which has been perfected after many
years of close study and treatment of
inebriates. The faithful use according
to directions of this wonderful dis
covery, is positively guaranteed to cure
the most obstinate case, no matter
how hard drinker. Our records show
the marvellous transformation of thou
sands of drunkards into sober, industri-
GUS and upright men.
WIVES CURE YOUR HUSBANDS, :!
CHILDREN CURE YOUR FATHERS! !!
This remedy is in no sense a nostrum
but is specific for this disease only,
and is so skillfully devised and pre-
pared that it is thoroughly soluble and
pleasant to the taste, so that it can be
given in cup of tea or coffee without
the knowledge of the person taking it.
Thousands of drunkards have cured
themselves with this priceless remedy,
and as many more have been cured and
made temperate men by having the
'CURE" administered by loving friends
and relatives without their knowledge,
in coffee or tea, and believe to-day that
they discontinued drinking of their own
free will. Do NOT WAIT. Do not be
deluded by apparent and misleading
improvement" Drive out the disease
at once and for all time. The "HoME
GOLD CURE" is sold at the extremely
low price of One Dollar, thus placing
within reach of everybody treatment
more effectual than others costing S25
or $50 Full directions accompany
each package. Special advice by skill
ed physicians when requested, without
extra charge. Sent prepaid to any
part of the world on receipt of One

TOURNEY FOR
BOYS BRIGADE
Lady Judges and AwarJs Are
Appointed Acts Ready
for Rehearsal.

At a meeting held yesterday morning
the following ladies were appointed as
Judges of the Boys Brigade advertis-
ing tourney: Mrs. J. S. McGrew,
chairman; Mrs S. NJ Damon, Mrs. A.
T. Atkinson, Mrs. Alexander Mackin-
tosh. Mrs. w. F. Frear and Mrs. ], B.
Atherton.
The winners will have to be con-
tented with bare honors, not even
brows, but after the various stunts
have been performed, the judgesses
win make an effective appearance, the
exact nature of which is wrapped IN
mystery, and award four first men
lions. These will be made for the most
original conception, the most elaborate
display. the most artistic design, and
the most comical performance.
The search around town for proper
ties and stage appliances needed by
those in charge of the various acts has
disclosed to the discerning eye an idea
of many of the turns. AT least TWO
trauus will introduce the wares or
their respective employers, and the
metrical capacity of the local poets has
been taxed TO the utmost 10 produce
topical songs that will advertise the
firms represented, while they amuse
the audience. The sign writer's have
| been busy, and the advertising mana
| gers of the competing corporations
| have spent many an anxious houf,
| watch in hand the last week, trying
| to boil down their ideas to a four r
minute representation.
The result should be a series of start
| ling concentrations of genius. The Win
! ners will probably strike promptly for
a rise in salary as business producers,
although the requested increase will
doubtless be weighed in the minds OF
the owners against the expense &C
| count and found wanting. Two ster-
eopticon exhibits, one by photogra-
| pher. and another in connection with
a display by a we'll known firm, VIII be
| shown.
According to the rates charged, IL
will cost the competitors So. 70 per MIN
ute to recommend their various stockS
in trade, so that hot air, aside from
the use of gas engines is to be ex'
pected. The final rehearsal under the
stage membership of w. d. Adams
viii take place tomorrow night, whef
tbe~~stop watch will be used unspar
ingly.
Firms who have contributed towards
the good work, but were barred by tn
limited time of performance from max
ing a stage appearance, will be repre-
sented by printed advertisements on
Il folder to be distributed among tn
audience Seats have sold up to eN

A WISE SUGGESTION.

The moment ia approaching,
when it behooves all good citizens
to take steps tn proven. outrages,
which cannot altogether be con-
trolled by the authorities. We are
endorsing the sentiments expressed
by The Argonaut editorially. The
fearless paper writes as follows:
"In San Diego recently was held a
nesting of the siguers to "a daclara.
ton of principles, inaugurating
what will be known as the Order of
Loyal Americans. The plan in.
cludes the formation of similar socie-
ties in every centre OF population
throughout the country. The avow-
ed purpose is the suppression Of al :
archists in the United States, and
the methods to be employed are !:
To demand immigration laws from
Congress which shall effectually bar
known anarchists from our shores;
to make this country uncomfortable
for those already here; to suppress
anarchistic literature aud teschings;
and to discourage any journalism 80
reckless and sensational that it be-
comes school for attacking the
law, for promoting violence, and for
breeding anarchy. The members
are oath. bound, and, judging from
the reports, the society is intended
to be secret one. There is no
doubt of the good which such asso-
Citations may do. 1t is a plan
worthier of American ideals than
the organization of mobs or vigil
ance committees. 1t is within the
law, and should be on high plane.
A network OF such societies extend
ing TO every city in the land, work
ing in touch with each other, would
become an immense power in aid Of
the b ,st public opinion, and moral
forca.in the face OF which anarchy
would hide it's head or stink away to
other lands"

II such an association should be
established on the Mainland, we
hope that a branch will be formed
here by all good citizens, the wage
earners and capitalists alike, on a
wider scope. We are touching a
painful subject, but those, who fol-
low the records of the Courts see
daily charges entered of rape, seduc-
ton and crimes OF that nature, 1t

The increase In the death roll Of
children lately, caused by dysen-

gJes out today especially to the
par nts of little Leslie Baldwin who
died yesterday at Haiku. Toe
sweet little child had everything
before him which could make life
bright, and himself useful man in
the world. The Nornes spin the
wheel of fate aud the web ia un-
