INTERESTING FACTS.

For Nearly Every Man, Woman or Child.
A short time ago we published an ar
ticle recommending to our readers the
new discovery for the cure Of Dyspep-
sia. called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
and the claims then made regarding
the wonderful curative properties Of
the remedy have been abundantly sus-
tained by the facts. People who were
cautious about trying new remedies
advertised in the newspapers and were
finally induced to give Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets a trial were surprised
and delighted at the results. In many
cases a single package costing but so
cents at any drug store made a COM
plete cure and in every instance the
most beneficial results were reported.
From a hundred or more received we
have space TO publish only a few OF
the latest. but assure our readers we
receive so many commendatory letters
that we shall publish each week fresh
list Of genuine, unsolicited testimo-
malls and never publish the same one
twice.
From James Yemmeisler, La Crosse,
Wis: Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
doing me more good than anything
ever tried and was so pleased at re-
suits that gave away several boxes to

and lime burner and heartily recon-
mend to everyone who has any trouble

from indigestion and she had the same
good results.
From Mrs. Agnes K. Ralston, Cadil-
lac. Mich: have been taking Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets and / am very much
better and feel very grateful for the
great benefit have received in so short
a time.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a GER
tain cure for all forms Of Indigestion.
They are not claimed to be a cure-all,
but are prepared for stomach troubles
only, and physicians and druggists
everywhere recommend them to all per-
sons suffering from Nervous Dyspep-
sia, sour or acid stomach, heartburn,
bloating or wind on stomach and SINH

NEED OF AID
FOR CITY WAITS
Old Quarters Are So Small
That New Home Must Be
Prepared for Children
MANY TURNED AWAY
Lack of Room Compels Au-
thorities to Refuse From
| to 10 Applicants Daily

One OF the worthiest charities in San
Francisco appeals for aid in the COM
pletion of a shelter for homeless chill
dren.
The San Francisco Nursery for Home
less Children is situated at Mission and
Twelfth streets in dingy, uncomfortable
quarters, in an old ramshackle building
that has been used successfully as a
family residence, a school and a shelter
for the unfortunate little ones.
For many years the home has been
located in the old residence, and while
money has been received for the care
and repair of the present quarters, all
the available money has gone toward
the buying of a large block of land on
which to build a home that shall be
worthy of the name of San Francisco.
After the purchase of the lot the next
thing to consider was the placing there
on of a suitable home for the children.
The nursery managers Immediately
started in to raise funds for the erec-
tion of building. The sum of SIS, 900
has been raised for the proposed build
ing, but the managers are now trying
10 get SLU,UUU more.

PUGILIST'S WIFE ACCUSED
OF FELONY EMBEZZLENIENT
Mrs. Carrie Sullivan Arrested on Com
plaint of Stefano PelHcano, Who
Wanted to Marry Her.

Mrs. Carrie Sullivan, wife of Pugilist
Dan Sullivan, was arrested yesterday
morning by Detectives Wren and Cole
man and booked at the city prison on
charge of felony embezzlement. She
was released on $3.50 cash bail.
The complaining witness against her
is Stefano Pellicano, who arrived here
from Alaska about ten days ago. He
met the woman in John Grasso's
saloon on Pacific street, where she
was a waitress, and became infatuated
with her. He gave her $400 for safe
keeping on her promise that she would
marry him. They had been living to-
gether at 1923 Stockton street and
when Pellicano went there on Wednes-
day night he discovered that she had
disappeared, taking her trunk with her.
He notified the police and the woman
was arrested yesterday morning at 204
Ellis street. She had a bank book
showing a deposit of $240, all that is
left of the $500. She offered to give
Pellicano the money back if he would
not prosecute her, but he refused.

titled positively and with emphasis that
the cream had not been adulterated.
Within thirty consecutive days Mrs.
Susan Reardon was arrested no less
than fifteen times for drunkenness,
and as she sat among the female
prisoners in Judge Mogan's courtroom
yesterday morning she seemingly did
net care what became of her. When
told to stand up and plead she shook
her gray head, leered at the bailiff
and exclaimed: "Ah gwan wild ye-
wot's de use?" So she remained re-
cumbent while Judge Mogan sentenced
her to six months Imprisonment.
Jennie Snyder, middle-aged and
garishly attired. was delivering an i'm
promptu temperance grafton at Fourth
and Folsom streets when Patrolman j.
L. Farrell arrested her for drunken
ness. She had no recollection of the
incident when Judge Mogan asked her
about it, and he gave her thirty days
William Toy, a confirmed opium
slave, was sentenced to thirty days
Imprisonment for vagrancy. and he
set up such a hullaballoo that Judge
Mogan recalled him and requested to
be informed as to the cause of his
grief. Between sobs William ex-
planned that he feared fatality would
result from his deprivation of hop"
for a month, and the Judge retorted
that. in his opinion, society would not
mourn Williams demise. But he re-
duced the sentence to ten days, just
the same.
Charles Coulter, accused of stealing
diamond pin from Henry Young on
a Valencia street car, was under a
four years sentence for felony embez-
element when he was arrested. and
Judge Cabaniss referred his case to
Superior Judge Lawlor, by whom he
was originally sentenced. Coulter ap-
nished bail, and the appeal is still
pending.
Paul Sassoc, who shot his sweet
heart, Olivia Croce, and then fired a
bullet into his own head last Sunday
night on Montgomery avenue, was ar
raigned before Judge Mogan on the
charge of assault to murder. The
hearing was set for October 80, when
the woman will probably be able to
appear in court. Sassoc shot her be-
cause she refused to marry him.

Judge Cook Of contempt of court for

to the complaint. 1t was agreed that
briefs should be submitted to the
Judge between now and Monday, when
the matter will be argued. McNab
makes the point that the accusation
should have been made by the District
Attorney and not by the Duran wom-
an, a private person. He also ques-

Chew Yee Tong Declares War Against
81 On Sier Tong by Firing
Off Challenge,


The police are looking for trouble
in Chinatown, as war has been off,
cially declared between the Chew Yee
tong and the ST On Sier tong, both be-
longing to the Sam Yup Society. A
member of the Chew Yee tong stood
on Jackson street, near Stockton,
shortly before 1 o'clock yesterday
morning and fired ten shots as a chal-
lenge to the rival tong. One of the
bullets struck Toy Poy, merchant at
S37 Clay street, on the leg, infiicting a
flesh wound. The revolver from which
the shots were fired was found by j.
Shea, a lineman, and turned over to
the police.
About a week ago ST On Sier man
who worked in jewelry store left
without paying his bills. He was
forced to return and iquidate. This
angered the other members of the
tong. On Wednesday night several
members Of the rival tongs were in a
gambling resort in st. Louis alley and
the action regarding the jeweler was
angrily debated. A Chew Yee man
threw a vase at a 81 On Sier man and
the challenge was the result.
