Boer War Dispute Leads

Murder.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

VANCOUVER. p. c.. Sept. 26.-Because
he refused to repeat God Save the King
and made unpatriotic illusions to his
Majesty Edward VII, Arthur Milne of
Fernie was this morning stabbed by Jack
Fitzgerald and now lies at the point of
death.
The fight took place at Fernie. Milne
Is an American and came recently from
Butte, Mont. Milne and Fitzgerald met
on the street early this morning, just af-
ter the former had come off work in the
night shift of the coal mine. They had
several drinks in a saloon and then got
into a quarrel about the Boer war.
Milne declared that the British were
towards and that King Edward was no
better than the others. Fitzgerald
promptly began to fight. but he and Milne
were separated by friends. An hour later
Fitzgerald secured a long butcher knife
and came back to renew the dispute. He
sought out Milne and forced the Ameri-
can to his knees. but Milne declined to
obey his command to repeat God save
the King three times. Fitzgerald stabbed
him in the breast and stomach five times.
Fitzgerald is now in Jail and will be
held for murder IL Milne does not re-
cover.

Peruna cures all such cases Of dyspep-
STA. simply because it cures catarrh wher-
ever located. The reason so many cases
of dyspepsia suffer on and on without any
relief. trying this medicine and that med
icine. is that these conditions are not rec
Ognized as catarrh Of the stomach.
Any one suffering from dyspepsia. hav-
ing tried the ordinary remedies without
relief. would be safe to assume that their
case is one OF catarrh Of the stomach. and
should at once begin a course Of Peruna.
Peruna is sure TO cure these cases. It
never fails.

SOLANo COUNTY JUDGE
OBJECTS TO DIVORCE LAW
ration Against Last Legisla-
f1re's Act
ture's Act.

SUISUN. Sept. 26.-Judge A. ]. Buckles
has rendered a decision in the divorce
case Of Robert ]. Sutton against Sadie
Sutton, in which he declares as unconsti-
tutional the divorce law enacted by the
last Legislature. He says it is class leg
islation and therefore in conflict with the
provisions Of the constitution.
The new law provided that in case a
divorce is granted an interlocutory decree
should be issued, and that one year should
elapse from the time of the finding Of
facts and conclusions of law before enter
ing judgment. This was intended to pre-
vent divorced persons from going into
other States and remarrying before the
elapse of one year from the date Of the
decree of divorce. The old law prohibited
divorced persons from remarrying in the
State until the elapse Of one year.

having held up and robbed A. H. Burdell

the bars of State prison. No leniency
whatever will be shown in this court to
men of your ilk.'
