RIOT OCCURS AT PRESIDE.

Soldiers Assail Police with Sticks,
Stones and 5rickbats.
San Francisco, Sept 15.-There was
lively riot last night at the entrance
to the Presidio reservation.
Police Lieutenant Kelly with seven
patrolmen raided the saloon Of Press
Anderson and arrested SO soldiers and
ten civilians who were playing per.
centage poker. Anderson was refus-
eu a license recently but has been
running his place in defiance of the
law. While the police were making
the arrests a crowd of soldiers gath
cred and assailed them with sticks
stones and brickbats. The police
welded their clubs vigorously, but
with little effect, and were finally
forced to fire into the uniformed mob.
So far as known, however, no one was
hit.
While the rioting was at it's height
an alarm was sounded at the Preside
and three companies of infantry and
one cavalry were sent to the scene
They succeeded in driving the most OF
the riotOus soldiers back into the res.
ervatiOn, but not without considerable
trouble, the men not being disposed
to yield even to superior force. For
a time it looked as though a fatal
conflict was inevitable, but order was
finally restored. The 33 prisoners
were taken in patrol wagons to the
police station.

DEAR SIR:-Some years ago operated float

operations was being constantly changed and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
influences I employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out Of it. For this reason, in August and Septem
Der there was great loss Of time and business, on
account of sickness among the workers.
My attention was then called to JohnsOn's Chill
and Fever Tonic and I determined to give the
medicine trial. | procured it, and those who
were sick were put on this treatment, and those who
were feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
was well and reported for duty; and from that time
on | used nothing else but JohnsOn's Tonic and
never had another case of fever.
Yours very truly,
