An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the we'll known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGs, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
themin the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. It's perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get it's beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please

Butler, Pa, Feb. 1.-The condition
this morning of the fugitives from
justice, Edward and John Biddle and
Mrs. Kate Soffel, who were wounded
in the battle with the Pittsburg and
Butler police last evening, has not
changed since midnight, except in the
case of ED" Biddle, who has grown
noticeably weaker, and it is believed
that his death is now only a matter OF
few hours. His temperature is 102
pulse 146, respiration %, and there is
evidence of almost continual internal
hemorrhages. Unless peritonitis sets in
Jack" will be taken to the hospital
where an operation will be performed
in the hope of saving his life The doc
tors have just secured evidence that
his bladder was reached by a bullet

Mrs. SoffeI Will Recover.

Mrs. Soffel is resting easy. Her
only wound was made by a bullet
which penetrated the left breast with.
in an inch of the nipple 1t was from
a 32-caliber revolver and coursed
around the fifth rib on the left side
lodging under the shoulder blade
About o'clock this morning DR.. G.
K. McAdoO operated on her, removing
the bullet, and he is in such a condition
that her recovery is believed to be a
matter Of very short time Mrs. Sof.
fel tells two different stories of the
shooting, one to the effect that she
shot herself during the fight and the
other that she was shot by Edward
Biddle. The bullet did not go through
her outer garment, which indicates
that the shot was fired by herself or
by Blddle by putting their hand up
under the coat. A legal battle Is ex.
pected when the Pittsburg authorities
arrive today and at the jail, it Is said
the only way the Pittsburgers will be
able to secure the Biddles will be by a
writ of habeas corpus. The Butler au.
thOrities are determined to fight
against their being taken away.
