terday he succumbed. His body is in the
Morgue here at present and will be
shipped to his relatives in Poland for In
terment.
The Baron Mandausch, or, as he was
better known in this city, the Count,
has been a character around the Fresno
saloons for several years. His real name
was George Mandausch, and he was
native of Beuthen, Oberschlen. Every
few months he received a remittance from
the old country and then would follow a
protracted spree, always ending with the
Baron on the verge of delirium tremens.
After the spree the Baron would work at
anything he could get to do, often going
above Fresno and sometimes doing ranch
work. He would remain sober for several
weeks and then all of his earnings would
go the way of his remittanceS.
Little is known here of the Baron's 8
story. From what has been gathered,
however, it appears that he was a Polish
nobeman and at one time was high in the
politics Of his native country. Because of
alleged intrigues against the Russian Gov
zil and, became a soldier of fortune. He
was noted for his daring and attained the
rank of colonel in the Brazilian army.
Thence he came to California.
In Fresno the Baron became known be-
cause of his ability to talk upon almost
any subject, even when he was under the
influence of liquor. He was said by those
knowing him best to have been possessed
of many excellent qualities. A short time
that his exile would end next year and
that he then expected to return to Poland.
He claimed to have a son now being edu-
Gated in Germany.

ADVERTISEMENTS
THE OLD WAY
Of Treating Stomach Trouble and
Indigestion, a Barbarous and
Useless One.

We say the old way, but really 1t is the
common and usual one at the present
time, and many dyspeptics, and physi-
clans as well, consider the first step in
attempting to cure indigestion is to diet,
either by selecting certain food and re-
jecting others or to greatly diminish the
quantity of food usually taken.
In other words, the starvation plan IS
by many supposed to be the first essential
in the cure of weak digestion.
The almost certain failure Of the star
walton cure for stomach trouble has been
proven time and again, but still the usual
advice. when dyspepsia makes it's appear
ance, is a course of dieting.
All this is radically wrong. 1t Is fool
ish and unscientific to recommend diet
ing or starvation to a person suffering
from dyspepsia, because indigestion itself
starves every organ and every nerve and
fiber in the body.
What is needed is abundant nutrition
not less, and this means plenty Of good
wholesome, well cooked food and some
natural digestive to assist the weak
stomach to digest it.
This is exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are adapted
and this is the way they cure the worst
cases of stomach trouble.
The patient eats plenty Of wholesome
food, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets di-
gests 1t for him.
And this is in accordance with nature
and common sense because in this way
the whole system Is nourished and the
overworked stomach rested, because the
tablets will digest the food, whether the
stomach works or not. One Of Stuart.
Dyspepsia Tablets will digest 1900 grains
of meat, eggs and similar food
Any druggist will tell you that Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets is a remedy of ex
traordinary value and probably is the
purest and safest remedy for stomach
troubles.
No person suffering from poor digestion
and lack of appetite can fail to be i'm
mediately and permanently benefited Il
they would make it a practice to take
one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal

MEXICO Is WILLING
TO MAKE COMPROMISE
Case Growing Out Of Detention Of
American Boys Reaches the
ninlomafs

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 26.-A sequel to the
detention of George Holmes and Brownie
Pitman, two American boys, by the Mexi-
can officials at the line at Tia Juana last
July. is told in offers made by the Mexi-
can Government of a compromise Holmes
and Pitman were taking a drive south
from National City, where Pitman re-
sides. They secured permission to cross
the line into Mexican territory and were
to return with their horse and vehicle to
this side. They drove a little farther
than they expected, with the result that
they did not get back at the time ap-
pointed.
The Mexican officials would take no ex-
cuse, but placed the boys under arrest on
the charge of attempting to smuggle the
horse and carriage. Collector Bowers of
this port assured the officials that the
boys story was correct. but they would
hear no explanation. Later the Collec-
tor secured the boys release, but could
not secure the return of the property.
He therefore took the matter up at Wash
lngtOn and had his letters referred to the
American representative at the City of
Mexico, with the result that the boys
have received letters within the past few
days from the officials at Tia Juana say
ing that under orders from the City of
Mexico they are prepared to turn over
the proceeds of the sale of the horse and
vehicle AS the outfit was the family
horse and carriage of the Pitman family
& fifth Of its value, the offer has been
refused. Meanwhile the Mexican Govern
ment has made no reply to the United
States Minister nor TO the authorities at
Washington and the case will be again
taken up there.

BUNKERs EMPTY
ON THE NEWPORT
Steamship Has Tempes-
tuous Voyage From
Alaska.
Runs Short Of Coal and Is
Compelled to Use Wood
on the Trip.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PORT TOWNSEND, Nov. 26.-After a
tempestuous voyage Of thirty days the
steamship Newport arrived mere tnls
morning from Alaska with her coal sup
ply exhausted. During portion OF the
trip she used wood, which was gathered
at various places along the route. Inc
Newport for some years has been carry
ing mail from Juneau to the west coast
of Alaska and Captain Moore reports that
the recent storm along the Alaskan coast
has been the most terrific during MS ex-
perience. The Newport met the mail
steamer Discovery 400 miles west OF
Juneau, battling with the elements and
at that time the Discovery was f1ve days
behind schedule time.
The rigors of the Alaskan winter are
driving people from the interior points 10
the coast and the steamer Dolphin arrlV-
ing this morning, brought 200 passengers.
Joseph j. Rogers, newly appointed
United States Gold Commissioner 1or
SkagWay, was sworn in on November IL
by Judge Brown of the United states
Court at that place.
phin came in this morning from the
north with 200 passengers, of whom sixty
were transferred from the dlsapied
steamer Farallon which ancnoreo a1asaa "a Saa-
The Dolphin also brought the lareest
cargo of fresh halibut ever reaching port
on any single vessel.
The Dolphin left Skagway on Noyem-
Der 81 She reports that the Yukon Rlver
froze over entirely on November IT,
Preparations were being made to put sleds
and horses of the overland transporta-
ton companies in readiness for service, al
though it was expected that the trip could
not be made over the ice until about the
middle of the month.
Last Saturday the Dolphin reached the
vicinity of Cardenas Bay, where the heip-
less steamer Farallon was hove to. Sig
nails of distress from the vessel attracted
the attention of the Dolphin's officers and
she stopped. 1t was found that the Faral-
lon could not continue the voyage under
her own steam and her sixty passengers
went aboard the Dolphin, which brought
them to this city. Afterward kilograms of
distress were sent to the Seattle office
from Vancouver and the tug Pioneer was
dispatched from Port Townsend 1t is ex-
pected that the tug and her tow Will reach
port on Wednesday or Thursday.
The Farallon's officers say that the
trouble on their vessel was due to a de-
fective propeller blade, which, while re-
volving at a high rate Of speed, became
detached from the hub, striking the stuff
ing box near the stern with terrible force.
The blow broke the stuffing box and pre-
vented any further use Of her motive
power,
