THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful IL IS In
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
Goa! is the safest and most efficient
diSinfectane and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same cleans
ing purpose.
Charcoal is n remedy that the more
you take OF it the better. it is not q
drug at all, but simply absorbS the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and car
rIes them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetenS the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating on
ions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectualiy clears and i'm
proves the complexion, 1t whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic.-
1t absorbs the injurious gases which
collect In the stomach and bowels; ii
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another. but probably the best
charcoal and the most for the money
Is in Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges: they
are composed OF the finest powdered
Willow charcoal. and other harmless
antiSepticS In tablet form, or rather
in the form of large. pleasant tasting
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honr,.
The daily use OF these loZengeS will
soon tell In a much-improved condition
of the general health and purer blood.
and the beauty of 1t Is. that no pos
sible harm can result from their con-
tinued use. but on the contrary. great

the benefits OF charcoal says: IL adj

INDIANS MAY PLAY
MUCH STRONGER GAME
NOT BELIEVED TO BE SHOWING
TRUE FORM
HempePs Braves Returning From Dis
astrous Trip to the North, Ex-
pected to Show Improvement over
Exhibitions Given Up the State

The Sherman Indian football team
will arrive from the north tomorrow
and will lay over for the game with
the University of Southern California
the following day.
The braves were not as successful
as some of the enthusiasts would have
wished, but the fact Is to be con-
sidered that they were playing a hard
schedule on foreign grounds and the
strain of travel and games following
one another I'm rapid succession prob
ably threw the men out of playing
form.
At all events. the game of next
Saturday is being looked forward to
with much interest as the university
men will give their last line TO the
public before playing the remaining
Intercollegiate games with st. Vim
cents and Pomona
The real strength Of U. s. c. was
undoubtedly not to the fore in the
Occidental game and the chances are
that the university men will put up a
much stronger game when they make
their next appearance. Coach Merrill

SIXTH WARD REPRESENTATIVE
IS H0AXED
Inability Of Party TO Prevent "Doe"
from Talking to Injury Of
City-cause Results
in Clever Plan

"It was all Joke, perpetrated for the
purpose Of keeping Houghton quiet on
the trip. It accomplished it's purpose,
now it is time to forget It,"
This is the explanation given by the
members of the council who were on
the owens river junket for the failure
to organize the power committee of the
council, as had been decided in the
stateroom Of the Pullman car Hector
shortly after Sacramento had been
passed on the journey to San Francis
co.
Ever since the Owens river project
was first broached, Houghton hds been
wild to be member of the water sup
ply committee and to that end has
bored all interest in life out Of Coun-
Gilman Ford, chairman of the COM
mittee, with frequent requests to be
placed on the body. Houghton claims
that his sole object in being placed
on the committee is to make a name
for himself as an electrician. He is
authority for the statement that he is
well versed in the mysterious fluid and
was in charge of the British electrical
exhibits at the Chicago worlds fair.
With the thousands of horse power
which the new water supply will fur
nish, Houghton believes that as a
member of the water supply committee
he could do marvellous things and the
name of Houghton would ring in the
| land.
Ford doesn't want Houghton on the
committee nor do Kern, Smith, Ham
mon and Hitler, who form the rest of
the committee. None of these have
said so in so many words but their
actions have spoken louder than any
words which they could utter.
From the minute the junketing par
ty left Mojave Houghtons constant
cry was Ford. you old tight-wad, put
me on the water supply committee"

A PERFECT FOOD.
That SCOTS Emulsio,

That, SCOTS Emulsion
should act so quickly and
satisfactorily in all cases
of lost flesh and continued
wasting is not surprising
when its food value is un-
derstood. With pure Nor
wegian cod liver oil, hypo-
phosphites of lime and
soda and glycerine, there
is combined in SCOTS
Emulsion the best ele-
ments of nourishment and
strength building known
to medical science. Any
physician will tell you this.
The use of these ingredi-
ents in the proper proper
tions; the employment of
only the purest grade of
each, andto combine them
perfectly is the secret of
the success of SCOTS
Emulsion. You will not
find a more certain way to
stop waste, build flesh and
strength and supply nour-
ishment than through
SCOTS Emulsion.

POWER COMMITTEE JOKE TO KEEP
HOUGHTON QUIET, SAYS COUNCIL

Ford would force a weary smile and
change the subject
Give me a chance to harness that
power" would be Houghtons next
squeal.
Houuhton Unpleasant Feature
Ioughton's insistence on this one
point was the only unpleasant feature
of the trip, except at Big Pine, where,
according to the opinions of other
members of the party Is expressed by
Councilman Kern, "he made a chump
of himself" by telling a number of peo-
pie that the city would buy up all
their holdings and turn the owens
river valley into a hunting and fishing
resort, when all the rest of the party
agreed that the city now had all the
land and water 1t needed and consider
ably more.
For fear he would make other state
ments that would prove equally untrue
and work damage to the city's inter
ests, the other members of the party
put their heads together to devise some
means to make him keep still.
A hint from Fred Eaton. while on
the train Wednesday morning solved
the problem and the formation of the
power committee with Houghton as
chairman, was agreed on. When this
plan was broached to Houghton he hit
and all the rest of the day merely
touched the high spots. He announced
that the first development of power
would be at Cottonwood creek where
Fred Eaton estimates that 5000 horse
power can be developed Dreaming
over the possibilities afforded him as
chairman of the power committee,
Houghton had nothing more to say
during the whole trip, but as soon as
he arrived in Los Angeles he attempted
at meeting Of the council Monday
afternoon to have the power committee
formed, when only Councilmen Hitler,
Healy and himself. who had been on
! the trip. were present. His motion for
the formation Of the committee re-
! ceived no accord and 1t was yesterday
explained that the whole proposition
was a joke.
Houghton freely insinuated that the
electric companies had called a halt
on the development of the power but
Others intimated that it was the city
attorney, who had uttered a caution.
The charter provides for the use of
money for a water supply, but says
nothing about it's use for the develop
ment of power and if any of the bond
money was used for this purpose it
might invalidate the issue, or at least
have the effect of frightening invest
! ors.

CRACK JOCKEY
COMES To ASCOT
"PUDDIN" MDANIEL TO RIDE
FREE LANCE
Lightweight Has Record for Winning
Mounts During Past Season, Als
though Injuries Kept Him
In Bed Ten Weeks

Race-goers will learn with much sat
isfaction of the return to Ascot of
"Puddin" Mcdaniel, who arrived last
night from New York. accompanied
by his father, Dave Mcdaniel.
"Puddin" will ride free lance this
winter, having refused tempting Of
fers for contract services because he
prefers to be free to accept mounts
from whomsoever he pleases.
During the season just ended in the
east and middle west, "Puddin" rode
more winners than any other jockey
and is in his best form now. His good
record was made under difficulties,
chief among which was an enforced
idleness of ten weeks occasioned by
broken leg which he sustained while
riding in the east last summer.
Mcdaniel rode at Ascot last season
and had the mount on Gold Rose when
that speedy mare equaled the Califor-
nit record for a mile, which she can
tered in 1881.
AS a lightweight rider he is among
the leaders and can do as light as S5
pounds, although he prefers to ride at
80 pounds and up. He is under the
management of his father.
Speaking of the prospects for a Sue
cessful season at Ascot this winter,
Dave Mcdaniel said that he believed it
would be the banner season in the his
tory of the club.
Eastern horsemen are coming in
greater numbers and are bringing
many of the cracks of the season."
said he. "rhe ideal climate makes AS
cot unequaled as a winter resort for
man and beast and this will be factor
in inducing the attendance of promi-
nent turfmen and their horses at the
meeting"

May Play at Fiesta Park

There was considerable bad feeling
all around both sides claiming to be
the injured party. Nothing will satisfy
the Saints but a real argument with
Holmes's men and the occasion from
the outlook will nor resemble much OF
a love feast.
An interesting contest may hinge on
the outcome of the u. S. C.-Pomona-
st. Vincents games, as the two latter
aggregations have practically agreed
to deciding contest, should both
elevens win their game with U. S. C.
Holmes has the opportunity of step
ping in and spelling the plans of the
Saints and Pomonans, and the manner
into which the situation has developed
will add to the zest of the coming
games.
Coach Haggerty wishes to play on
the Fiesta Park gridiron if Coach
Holmes will agree to the proposition.
The contract calls for the game to
occur on the u. S. c.. campus and it is
for Holmes to decide whether there
will be a change in the plans.
The following officials have been pro-
POSED by Coach Haggerty to offlcate:
Traeger referee; Gray, umpire Hag-
gerty will probably suggest Hagerman
OF Occidental and Bernal Dyas as
timekeeper. Earl Holland of the high
school team will be the Vincentian
choice for head linesman.
Gray will not be able to officiate, as
he leaves for st. Louis on Sunday next.

ANGELIC SUCCESS DUE MAINLY
TO CONSISTENT WORK In FIELD
Houshton Unpleasant Feature

The fielding averages for the Seattle
series as given below show the reason
for the continuation of the Angel sue
cesses.
Jud Smith, now of the past, showed
well with the stick before his demise
and out of twenty times at bat ran
up an average of 400.
Cap Dillon was a star in the field,
but at the bat came out at the small
end with record of .133.
On the whole the batting was of the
weak order, but the hits came at the
right time and as a result the close
games went to the Angels.
The present condition of the team
will lend interest to the outcome, and
ii the Seraphs continue their winning

they meet at 2:30 p. m. on the grounds

been abroad "I was delighted to meet

Merrill Disbands Team

The university people were discour-
aged at the outcome of the game, but
not disheartened and it would not be
in the least surprising should the u
S. c.. team exhibit a total reversal of
the form that distinguished their op-
position to the Highlanders.
The local football situation is at the
present in a somewhat jumbled condi-
tion as a result of the victory of Po-
mona over the Occidentals last Satur
day. Merrill has disbanded his team
and there will be no more football at
the Highland Park institution during
the remainder of the season.
With good record, the Occidentas
are resting on their laurels and will
turn their attention to the formation
of track and baseball teams.
There are some exciting games yet in
store for Southern California and be-
fore U. S. c., st. Vincents and Po-
mona have fought it out, football his
tory will be made.
What promises to be an exciting
affair of the season is the U. S. C.-St
Vincent game which will occur De-
cember 2. For several reasons the con-
test is being anticipated with more
than ordinary interest. In the first
place, the official football records for
1904 read. U. S. C. 101; st. Vincents
college, 0. There is a sore spot rank
ling in the hearts of the Saints in
view of the fact that they did not
play the university men last season.
The aforementioned score was en-
tered as result of Coach Haggerty
taking his men off the field owing to
some disagreement which arose before
the game had begun.
