An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well 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
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitua1 cOnstipatiO per-
manently. Its 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 its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please

in the various places designated Week
ago by the state central committee,
will be held the eleven congressional
district Caucuses, potent gatherings
indeed. Here will be attempted, ann
N some part agreed upon, the trades
that will decide some places on the
ticket. Messengers will fly from eau
Gus to caucus, bearing propositions to
return solid support for solid support,
in the efforts to "mutualize interests"
by and between the various districts.
The ostensible work of the congress
sional district caucuses, however, is 10
elect five men in each district; two as
members of the state central commit
tee. one as member of the committee
on permanent organization one on the
committee on resolutions and one as
chairman of the congressional district
committee Upon the appointment OF
these committee members rests the
tale that will be written of the acts OF
the convention in the afternoon, but
this will go according to the complex
ion of the district delegations as deter
mined in the local caucuses.
At noon it is expected that the
thousands will have been seated in
the great convention hall and Gen.
George Z. Bryant. chairman of che
state central committee, will pound
on the table and the convention will be
on. He will Immediately call to the
chair. Judge Levi II, Bancroft Of Rich
land Center, temporary chairman, who
will make the first speech. This will
take some 25 minutes and after the
announcement of the committees an
adjournment will be taken to allow the
committee on resolutions to formulate
the platform. 1t is unlikely tina, re-
port will be reached before , o'clock
and then the fight of the convention
will ensue.
The committee on resolutions will
be made up of La Toilette delegates
with the exception of one or possibly
/ two members and it is impossible that
4 the primary election law demand will
, lie couched in terms less clear and alb

effect any change in the planks. The

Short Convention.
1t will in all probably be a short
convention. This great gathering of
the g. 0. p. clans of badgerdom, to
which Madison hotel and restaurant
proprietors are looking for many
sheckels of profit, to which stalwarts
are looking with more or less trepida-
ton and La Toilette supporters with
the smiles of assured success, will &C
cOrding 20 the best guess be encom-
passed within the hours of noon and
midnight of Wednesday.
AT all events there can be little IN
the nature of deadlock or prolonged
voting contests for places on the ticket.
The convention will close at the latest
before noon of Thursday and that the
work wal be completed at the Wednes-
day evening session seems more prob
able. Should adjournment be reached
before midnight Wednesday, there will
be hundreds of delegates who will
leave on the midnight and early morn
ing trains for the northwest.
At 10 o'clock Wednesday morning,

for the governor and 25613 for the
GAINESVILLE man. A committee will go
in search of the governor and he
having been conveniently slowed be-
forehand, will be quickly found and
brought before the convention to which
he will deliver the address of accept
ance which he has been writing the
last few days.
Upon what is done at this point de-
ponds the question whether or not the
play will continue through the last act
on the same night. If the hour be not
too late the candidate for lieutenant
governor and secretary of state will
be named, otherwise adjournment
will be taken until Thursday morn
ing.
IF they nominate any Of the state
ticket, other than the first place" said
Walter l.. Houser, leading La Toilette
candidate for secretary of state. last
night, they will hurry the thing
through to the end"
This seems to be a safe prediction
as perhaps the hardest contest of the
nominations is to be that on the secre-
taTy of state. The others will be &C
complished with comparative ease.

program is to work for a Legislature

standing that he shall resign before

is ended. Then La Toilette, too, viii
resign and Davidson, who will succeed
him, is to name La Toilette to the
senatorial vacancy. Two years later
a fight will be made to displace

The stalwarts, it is said, will go
down to defeat with banner flying.

NEEDED A BRAVE MAN.
He Was an Hour Dehind Time anA
His wife Was Waiting for
HIN at Home.

The wind sighed dismally in the big,
bare Office at the Harrison Street Po-
lice station every time that the door
opened, and with one of the signs there
drifted in pale little man with a wispy
mustache and discouraged express
sion on his careworn face, relates the
Chicago Tribune.
He sidled up to the grated desk and
said, plaintively:
Sergeant, | want the bravest man
in the police station. want to borrow
him for half an hour"
Visions of the capture of the stamp
robbers, of Patrick Grove. and of half
a dozen other noted otfe nders flashed
into the sergeant's consciousness.
Man" said he, you can have a
dozen. What is it? The capture of q
desperate criminal?
NO"
perhaps you want TO have q hold
up man arrested"
mo"
Can it be that you have seen bur
glars at work and want the bravest
man we have to go with you and take
thcm?"
NO. said the Little man, sadly, 1T
is not that"
"But, see here. You are asking or
the bravest man we have, and we don't
send him out unless there is big game
to be bagged. Give me an idea of the
service you wish to have performed
and may send half dozen men in
stead of one"
"One will do"
"Then what do you want him for7"
The little man raised himself on tip
toe. He said, softly:
81 want the bravest man in the sta
tion to go with me to my house. l
promised to be home at ten o'clock and
it is now II. My wife is waiting for me,
and it will take the bravest man in
Chicago to explain to her that missed
the last car"
The sergeant, who would have liked
to have sent man. found that he could
not spare one.

Base Ball.

oooO odIs
Lamar witnessed two games OF base
ball and also two varieties Of the game
last week. On Thursday the re-organiz-
ed Granada nine came up and played
fast game OF the national sport and it
was only by an exhibition of the gilt
edge variety OF ball that the Lamar boys
were able to beat them. On Sunday
Las Animas came down and although
the game they played was none too good,
the exhibition given by the Lamar boys
was the worst seen here for several years
and they easily handed the game over to
Las Anmas by large score.
The game on Thursday was the best
seen here for several years, and but for
the mistake made by Granada of'putting
in the wrong man for catcher at the
start would have been tie at the end
of the ninth inning. The Granada boys
had ON their batting clothes and it was
only the fast fielding of the Lamar nine
that prevented them from running up II
large score. AS it was the result was in
doubt until the last man was out, and
the small crowd were all satisfied with
the gamo they had witnessed. The
score was 10 to 6 in favor OF Lamar. The
umpires, Downer and Taylor, were 20
fair that never decision OF either was
questioned.
On Sunday the crowd was much
larger and that was the only respect in
which there was any improvement
There was considerable kicking on the
unfairness of the umpire. who made one
or two rank decisions against Lamar,
but no amount OF favors from the um-
pire could have saved the game rs yer,
few of the boys seemed able to stop n
ball of any kind. With the same mum
ber of safe hits that Granada made or
Thursday, Las Animas was allowed to
pile up II runs, while Lamar with one
more safe hit got but 8. The Lamar
rooters started in strong the first part OF
the game to give n scientific exhibition
OF the art of rattling an opposing nine,
but they weakened perceptibly as the
balls slipped through the hands of the
Lamar boys and towards the last, when
he had the game we'll in hand Captain
Jordan OF Las Animas gave little exhi
bition OF roofing himself, which was en-
joyed even by the victims.
Patriotism, it was evident from these
two games, cannot withstand an attack
on the pocket book, rs those residents
of Lamar, who witnessed the game from
the top of the east fence to save quar-
ter, were all enthusiastic IN their cheers
for Granada and Las Animas.

SURVIVED in the Coronation.

1t is so long since we elected our
nominal rulers that many of us forget
that n king was ever on the footing Of
a Roman consul or an American prcsi-
dent. Yet survival of that early
practice is still to be heard in The coro-
nation service. "Sirs," said the arch
bishop of Canterbury after Queen Vic
toria had entered the abbey md shown
herself in the prescribed ritual to her
people on all sides, 81 here present to
you Queen Victoria, the undoubtcd
queen of this realm: Wherefore all
you who come this day to do your hom-
age, are you willing TO do the same?'

tonic custom of choosing the most
capable or popular man in the nation
