when DR.. schaeffer visits them, as he
will do in few days, to keep them
from going to Whittier there would be
an expense Of $500 a month that the
city will profit by saved. And yet we
cannot begin to express in figures what
these men will do for there is blood and
tears and heart aches to be reckoned
with.
What doth 1t profit man If he
gain the whole world and lose his own
soul? The question has never been
answered"
The seven evangelists brought greet
ings, and proved beyond a doubt that
their aptness for. telling clever after
dinner stories was second only to their
eloquence on the platform.
"In and Out" was the title by which
Gail Borden concealed the financial re-
port which he had to make.
Thirteen-Inch Guns
w. H. Frost spoke of "Thirteen-inch
Guns" lkening the present campaign
to siege in which certain forces had
to be defeated and for which proper
guns and machinery were needed. He
referred to the former banquet at
which the greater finance committee
was formed and the guarantee fund
started, and made a plea that the oil
which was necessary to make the ma
chinery work should be poured on in
the shape of a larger guarantee fund
Cards were handed around and a large
sum added to the former amount.
Following Mr.. Frost's remarks, mo-
tion was made and carried that the
Los Angeles council be petitioned to set
aside February IA as a legal holiday
for day of prayer, and that at that
time the business houses throughout
the city close their doors from 11:30
o'clock until o'clock in the afternoon.
A committee composed of seven
prominent citizens of Los Angeles was
appointed to take the question up with
the members of the council.
Comprising the committee are Drs.
Mcintyre, Burdette and Walker and
Messrs Rindge, Borden, Edwards and
O. T. Johnson.

NEW YORK'S CITY HALL
FOUNDATIONS SINKING

NEW YORK, Feb. At has been
discovered that the foundations of one
wing of the city hall have sunk at the
point nearest the subway, and deep
cracks have appeared in the vain
scoting of the mayors room which oc-
cupies the west wing of the building.
Borough President Ahearn has or
dered all work on subway tunnel
under the city hall to be suspended
and work will probably be abandoned.
The wainscoting Of the mayors re-
eeptlon room has cracked I'm many
places and the sinking of the founda-
tlons is apparent. The point where the
wall has settled is the nearest point in
the city hall to the subway tunnel,
The excavation is only about ten feet
away and lies almost directly below
the wide front steps OF the city hall.
The soil in the vicinity is sandy and
offers but slight resistance to the VI
bration caused by the trains.

The Value of Charcoal
Few People Know H)w Useful II Is in Presery'
ing Health and Beauty

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal Is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature,
but few realize it's value when taken
into the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; 1t is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present
in the stomach and intestines and
carries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and inn
proves the complexion, 1t whitens the
teeth and further acts as natural
and eminently safe cathartic
II absorbs the Injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels; 1t
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal i'm one
form or another, but probably the
best charcoal and the most for the
money is in Stuart's Charcoal Loz-
enges; 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 honey.
The daily use of these lozenges will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton OF the general health, better COM
pexiou, sWeeter breath and purer
blood, and the beauty OF II is that no
possible harm can result from their
continued use, but on the contrary,
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician IN speaking Of
the benefits of charcoal says: II ad-
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges to all
patients suffering from gas in
stomach and bowels, and to clear the
complexion and purify the breath,
mouth and throat; l also believe the
liver is greatly benefited by the daily
use OF them; they cost but twenty
five cents a box at drug stores, and
although in some sense a patent
preparation, yet ! believe l get more
and better charcoal In Stuart's Char
coal Lozenges than in any Of the or
dinary charcoal tablets

"Gambling is the greet American

blot to your city you will find that ii
will take hold of your boys and girls
until 1t ruins them.
This city should be swept with a
great tidal wave of reform until the
saloon is driven out and the name of
Ascot park shall become thing of the
past"
Df. Il. S. Chapman of the Anti-sa-
loon league called attention to the
track between Berkeley and Alameda,
saying that Ascot park threatens to be-
come a power in politics which would
mean that Los Angeles would be a
ruined city.
Frank W. Blair of Chicago was the
last speaker and urged the exclusion
of the tips in the daily papers.

EGG FAMINE IN CHICA> 0
Cold Wave Causes shortage-DeaIers

CHICAGO, Feb. 4.-Chicago faces
one of the worst egg famnes in its
history, according to South Water
street commission men and the price
ay go to so cents a dozen or higher in
a few days. The cold wave is the cause
of the shortage, and it has been of such
long continuance that the storage sup
ply is almost exhausted.
What few eggs are left are in the
big refrigerating plants at the stock
yards, it is said, and the owners can
charge what prices they please, as
shipments from the country are ex-
pected to be almost nothing for the
next three weeks. Some dealers now
receive as much as 80 cents for the
best grade of fresh eggs, and the price
of storage eggs ranges from IS TO 2S
cents a dozen.

ATTACK ASCOT RAGING
Mass Meeting Favors Passage of the
Espey Bill

ESpey 6ill
"Ascot park must go at any cost.
This expressed the sentiment of the
vast throng of business men and min
listers who crowded the Temple audi
torium yesterday afternoon.
Several men prominent in reform
movements have been advocating the
abolition of the race track for many
weeks, and their protestations assumed
definite shape yesterday in the form
of resolutions and the appointment of
committee to see that they are car
ried out.
The meeting was called to order by
Rev. A. B. Prichard and George w.
Parsons was elected permanent chair
man.
Rev. Robert j. Burdette was the first
speaker, and pointed out that If it were
not for the pool selling at Ascot park
the races would not exist Take away
the gambling privileges and you would
not see enough people out there at the
end of week to make it pay. People
do not go to Ascot park to see the
horses run. Honor and decency will
win every time.
We ministers are learning how to
overcome such conditions as those Of
Ascot park. We go at the advocate
of this thing the best we can this
time, the next we slam him hard.
When we receive help from officials to
accomplish a reform let us not forget
those officials when the next election
comes. l want you to regard the in
terests of the men who hold up your
hands in this affair"
Says Gambling Increases
Rev. Hugh X. Walker gave sons
truths in a way that made those who
had gathered to hear more anxious
than ever to accomplish their purpose,
Your presence here is proof that you
are interested" he said 1T seems to
me that l can see the overflow OF
race track gambling i'm Los Angeles.
II believe that every old fashioned
revival of religion Is an ethical revival
and realize that your patience so Sar
as this race track Is concerned has
passed the limit.

anything on Gods earth that miserable
men will not bet on.

tains EvaneeIists and Singers at
Banquet-Great Success At

AS a closing event of the first week
of the great revival campaign the
seven evangelists and singers were the
guests OF the greater finance committee
at a banquet last night
The banquet was served in the as
sembly room of the Young Women's
Christian association, which had been
beautifully decorated by the girls of
the association with long festoons of
asparagus plumosis, red carnations and
red and white satin ribbon.
A spirit of good fellowship pervaded
the evenings entertainment, and busi-
ness men, ministers and evangelists
were as one, banded together for a
common cause and rejoicing in a COM
mon victory.
Rev. Hugh X. Walker invoked the
blessing and after course dinner
served byyoung women of the associa-
tion, Rev William Horace Day, the
chairman, introduced as toastmaster
Frederick H. Rindge.
Said Mr.. Rindge: 1T means much
more for this city that band of
evangelsts such as these men come
here than If Carnegie had given us a
library. We belong to the brotherhood
which is all free. We have this broth
erhood and the world cannot take it
away. We are banded together the
bond of Jesus Christ"
Judge Wilbur Speaks
Judge Curtis d. Wilbur delivered an
address on What This Movement
Means to the City" He gave statis-
tics showing the amount of money
spent each year in keeping up the
prisons, insane asylums, reform schools
and other institutions of the kind, and
then pointed out the need for such a
work as the evangelists are accom-
plshing at the present time.

the person addressed had in the mean
