NO POISON IN CHAMBERLAIN'S s
 COUGH REMEDY.

From Napier New Zealand, Herald: Two years ago the Pharmacy Board of New South Wales, Australia, had an analysis made of all the cough medi- cineS that were sold in that market. Out of the entire list they found only one that they declared was entirely free from all poisonS. This exception was Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, made by the Chamberlain Medicine Company, Des Moines, Iowa, U. S. A. The absence of all narcotics makes this remedy the safest and best that can De had: and it is with a feeling of security that any mother can give it to her little ones. Chamberlain's s Cough Remedy is especially recom- mended by it's makers for coughs, colds, croup and whooping cough. This rem edy is for sale by R. H. Beers X Co.,, New town; Taylor, Curtis & Co.,, Sandy Hook; w. N. Hurd, Long Hill; A. B. Blakeman, Botsford; S. J. Parks, Trumbull.

SUPPORTED HER ONE DAY
Married Eleven Years and Provided
for Herself

Claiming that her husband has only
supported her for a day during her
married career, extending over
period of eleven years, Mrs. Ida Mar
burg yesterday asked Judge York in
the superior court to release her from
her life contract with Fred Marburg
on the grounds of desertion and failure
to provide.
Occasionally Marburg would wander
away from home and remain absent
for several days.
Upon his return Mrs. Marburg would
protest against his conduct, where
upon -Marburg would demolish the
household bric-a-brac as a means to
counteract the effect of his wife's ar
gument.
Aside from her husbands destruc-
tiveness Mrs. Marburg complained OF
his conduct toward her boarders.
She asserted yesterday that it was
impossible to keep her roomers for any
length of time owing to her husbands s
inclination to prowl through their
apartments.
Judge York held that Mrs. Marburgs s
case was we'll sustained, but in order

HUSBAND BEATEN !
into SUBMISSION
ASSERTS WIFE THRASHED
HIM S0UNDLY
Charges Spouse With Having Unsov-
ernabIe Temper-she Denies AL
legations and Says He Was
"in the Way"

Because his wife put her finger on
the end of his nose and then beat him
with a club until he cried for mercy,
p. NJ. Bragunier yesterday asked Judge
Allen to liberate him from the matri-
monial partnership existing between
himself and Mrs. Florence b. Bragu-
nier
He prefaced his remarks by saying
his spouse had an ungovernable tenn
per and intimated that she always car
ried it with her.
After hard days labor, and faint at
that, he pleaded with his helpmeet to
prepare the evening meal. According
to his story, Mrs. Bragunier preferred
to engage in fight. and when he remon-
strated with her she placed her finger
on the end of his nose, and when he
objected he was promptly beaten into
submission.
He insisted that he was compelled to
flee from the premises in order to
allow his wife's temper to "cool off"
and even then he did not feel entirely
at ease.
On another occasion Bragunier urged
his spouse to bake few biscuits for
the evening meal, whereupon she pro-
claimed him "butter-in.'
Realizing that self-preservation was
the first law of nature, the unhappy
spouse left mis- home
He made a fatal mistake when he
ventured to return to his home for an
alarm clock. for he declares Mrs.
Bragunier set upon him and beat him
numerically.
Even the judge stood aghast when
the plaintiff unfolded the tale of
cruelty, and the husband was about to
gain his freedom when Mrs. Bragunier
made known her presence in the court
room and blocked the whole proceed
ings.
Mrs Bragunier mounted the witness
stand and what she said interfered
seriously with the plans of her hus-
band.
1t developed that both parties to the
mill before.
She denied having struck Bragunier
on the head and insisted the blows fell
upon his sleeve.
In reply to a question from the court
Mrs. Bragunier ascribed her athletic
and club-swinging proclivities to her
husbands desire to hang around the
stove"
"He pestered me almost to death"
declared Mrs. Bragunier.
Judge Allen intimated that the case
was puzzle and further hearing was
postponed until January 90

DISLOcATES INJURED SPINE
Patient With Broken Back Removes
Cast

Groaning with the extreme pain
caused by the slightest motion, Charles
Cole, paper hanger, living at 16 North
Bailey street who was discharged from
the county hospital Monday morning,
was taken to the receiving hospital
Tuesday afternoon with his injured
spine in a dangerous condition.
Six weeks ago Cole fell backward
from a ladder while hanging paper in
a cottage and struck his back on the
edge of gas stove, breaking a bone.
He was hurried to the county hospital,
where an operation was performed and
in order to save the mans life the in
jured portion of the bone was removed
and a silver plate substituted.
Monday morning Cole was discharged
from the hospital, with his injury en-
tirely healed and only a slight weak
ness remained to remind him of the ac-
cident. The operation was considered
marvel of surgery and Cole was
watched by attendants as he walked a
mile to his home.
A heavy brace was placed around the
upper portion of Coles back, holding
the plate in place until the weakness
should depart. Tuesday morning Cole
left his home and went downtown. He
walked some distance, and the heavy
pressure of the cast upon his body
CALLED his flesh and bruised his hips
and back.
He went to a drug store and ordered
a lighter support for his back, and
then removed the cast placed upon him
by the physicians at the county hos
pital.
He walked block after removing the
cast, when his back suddenly gave out
and he sank to the ground in agony.
He was found On North Main street
and hurried to the receiving hospital,
where he was put to bed and kept there
until yesterday morning. He was in
toxicated.
His back was greatly improved yes
terday, but he was sent to the county
hospital during the afternoon.

ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE ANTI

Headquarters Committee Of the state
Association Reports on Lines
of Work Now Being
Carried On

The headquarters committee of the
state Anti-Saloon League of Southern
California desires to announce: "In

year ago, which has been many times
repeated during the year, and I'm COM
pliance with the wishes of the people
favorable to the work of the league. we

ut is our purpose at very early
date to have submitted to the people
of this city, under the. initiative and
direct legislation features of the city
charter. an ordinance providing for the
prohibition of the retail liquor traffic in
Los Angeles. This movement, in which
we are now engaged will be pushed
with all the vigor and thoroughness
which have heretofore characterized
the efforts of the league.

its constitution from forming alliances

of the national league applies to every
state league in the nation. We have
inaugurated and shall conduct this
campaign in Los Angeles as the repre-
sentatives of all churches and societies
favorable to the cause of saloon sup
preston, and we confidently expect and
depend upon the loyal support of all
these affiliated churches and societies
and of their individual members.
During the past year we have made
immense preparation for this move

a magnificent victory if the friends of
reform whom we represent
cooperate to that end, as we
feel assured will be the case

ARROWS NEW FRAME IS
MARVEL OF LIGHTNESS
Sky Craft Being Fitted for Another
Trip-Motor Powerful but
Weiuhs Little

Work on the new frame for the CAL
;fornia Arrow is progressing well IN
the aerodrome at the Chlutes under
the direction of Captain Baldwin and
Roy Knabenshue. No ascension will
be made Sunday as the little ship
will not be ready.
The new frame differs somewhat
from the old one in that it is AZ feet
long as against SS for the discarded
one. Another difference is readily no
ticed in the shape of the two. In the
new frame the top rail is not a con-
tinous curve as in the old one. but is
sprung down to meet the sidepieces
or bilge strngers from about four
feet from the ends, making the back
bone timber perfectly straight for "a
feet.
The bilge stringers are set wider
apart than in the old frame and have
a rocker" not unlike a surf boats
bottom-that is, running fiat and
straight for half their length and then
curving upward and in until they meet
the backbone. The three timbers are
made of white cedar, veneered so that
there are no joints in their entire
length.
The ribs are spaced three feet apart
and are of Oregon pine. The whole
frame is securely bolted together. Be
tween the ribs diagonal braces of wire
give stiffness to the whole. Near the
ends where the strain is greatest heav-
Ter wire is used. An idea of the slen
der and seemingly f1imsy construction
of this 42-foot frame can be had when
1t is known that ready for the engine
it weighs only 60 pounds.
The construction is such. however,
that it will stand great deal of
strain and hard use. The system of
whole very strong and as in the case
of a bicycle wheel a strain put upon
any part of the frame is taken up Ly |
the whole. AS it is Knabenshue will
have to stand on a triangular timber
about an inch and a half through when |
the air, but on account of the method |
used in building the framework it |
would support many times his weight |
The new engine which arrived TIE |
other day is now set up in the aero
drome and if appearances are not de- |
ceiving should do things when in
stalled in the Arrow. 1t is a seven
horse power special motor built by
Curtis, the gas engine wizard, especial |
ly for the little airship.
This motor is a truly wonderful
piece of work and will run at two thou !
sand revolutions. The two cylinders |
are opposed and rugged with a single |
gearing. The power is backgeared so
that the motor will have a tremendous
leverage on the shaft.
Everything about the engine is
wonder of lightness, but the most |
novel flywheel ever seen here is part
of the mechanism. The rim is heavy
enough to turn the engine over sew
eral times in case a cylinder should |
miss, while the spokes of the wheel |
are wire, like those of a bicycle and |
add practically nothing to the weight
of the whole. Complete, the motor
weighs IS pounds.
