CURES WITHOUT STOMACH DOSING
Hyomei Cures Catarrh by Simple Breathing.
John E. Daily will Refund Money
If il Fails to Cure

A long stride toward solving the
mystery of curing catarrh was taken
with the discovery of Hyomei. In
fact, the percentage of cures by this
treatment proves it equal to the final
tests.
The folly of taking medicine into
the stomach to cure catarrh of the
nose, throat and lungs, has been real
| lied by physicians, but not until
| Hvomei was known, had they a
practical method that would obvate
stomach drugging.
A complete Hyomei outfit costs but
81, and consists of neat pocket in
haler that can be used anywhere
without attracting attention, a
medicine dropper and a bottle of
Hyomel. Extra bottles of HyOmei
cost but so cents.
Breathing Hyomei through the
! inhaler, every particle of air that
enters the nose, throat and lungs, is
charged with a healing balSam that
sootheS and allayS all irritation, kills
the catarrhal germs and enriches the
blood with additional ozone.
! John z. DAILY has so much faith in
the power Of Hyomei to cure catarrh.
that he is selling it under his persona
/ guarantee to refund the money if it
! does not give positive relief.

DEPARTMENT NOT ADVISED.
No Report Made Concerning Alleged
Desertion of British Jackies.

Acting Secretary Murray of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor stated to-
day that no official report had been made
to his department concerning the alleged
extensive desertion and evasion of the i'm
migration laws by British sailors from
Prince Louis squadron. Admitting the ac-
curacy OF the newspaper reports from New
York this government will be placed in an
embarrassing position unless the British
government can capture every one of the
deserters and turn them over to the immi-
grafton officials at Ellis Island.
The immigration laws provide that every
vessel coming into port of the United
States from a foreign country must be re-
sponsible to the immigration officials for
each and every passenger and member of
the crew. In each case where such passen-
ger or sailor cannot be produced by the
owners or officials of the vessels a fine of
81 900 may be imposed The question now
arises whether this provision of the law
applies to the British squadron, and, II II
does, will 1t be enforced IN view of the fact
that Prince Louis was a guest OF this gov
ernment.
MIR. Murray, when this point was brought
70 his attention by representative of The
Star, declined to discuss the matter, say
ing he would prefer to await the time when
the department would be called upon off,
claliy 10 determine the matter. Commits
sloner OF immigration Frank p Sargent
also stated that he had received no adyices
from the immigration officials at New York
concerning the deserters

BATTLE WITH RFvoLvERs.
Exciting Fight Of Eighteen-Year-Ol Old
Youth With officials.

SAN PABLO. Cal, November 20.-Joseph
A. Wiley, an Oakland boy eighteen years
of age. was mortally wounded last night by
a bullet fired by John Bouquet, local con-
stable after battle. in which revolvers
were freely used, with the constables and
Southern Pacific train officials at this sta
ton After being wounded, he staggered
across the railroad track and was run down
by train just pulling into the station.
Wiley boarded the north-bound train out
of Oakland by jumping on the front of the
baggage car while it was in motion. When
the train stopped at Siege, Brakeman
Reeves went forward TO force him from the
train. Conductor Wells went with him.
Engineer Aitken climbed from his cab over
the tender to assist, If necessary. Before
they got close to him Wiley pulled from
his pocket two pistols and pointed them at
the men and fired at them.
A bullet whizzed by Wells ear and caused
him to beat a hasty retreat Aitken ran
back to his cab, followed by bullet Will
ley then ordered the engineer to pull out
and threatened to kill him II he refused and
the train was started for San Pablo. Here
the constable, who had been warned by
wire, made an attempt to capture Wiley
who defied him and the battle began anew
After a number of shots had been ex-
changed Wiley dropped, mortally wound
ed, and staggered over the track, where he
was run down by the incoming train.

PANIC IN A CHICAGO CHURCH.
Many Memorial Services Were Held in
the Ghetto District

CHICAGO. November 20.-Scenes of panic

murdered Jews in Russia in the synagogue
of the Congregation Beth Hamedrash Ha-

Worked into a white heat of emotion by
the prayers and lamentations of the pa

at the sound of a disturbance in the rear of

A thud on the floor and frightened cries
told that man had tainted An unrea-
soning fear struck the women In the gall
leries and many of the men below. In a
fash the scene was changed from one of
Wild grief to one of a mob seeking escape.
Women gathered up their babies and fled,
screaming, to the exits. Men jumped on
seats and tables and fought to be the first
out.
1t did not last long and no one was hurt
seriously. Several were knocked down and
bruised. but the rabbis and the cooler men
In the congregation succeeded In quieting
the rush in time. 1t developed that the

over.
All through the Ghetto memorial services
were held. In every synagogue of the dis
trict men pleaded for money to send to the
suffering and starving ones in Russia
Christian pastors In their pulpits spoke
words of sympathy. Some said the United
States government should intervene. Others
asked financial aid for the Jews.

AIR FILLED WITH STEEL CLINT.
Chicago People Suffering From Peculiar
Eve Trouble

CHICAGO. November 90 = Downtown.
Chicago, just now is experiencing a phase
of the age of steel, which is bringing dis
comfort and danger to many people who
use the streets in the central business dis
trict.
Somewhere in almost every block a steel
skeleton for skyscraper is rising, and in
these skeletons pneumatic drills and Yiveters
are at work Some of these are at work
at such heights that the ininitesimal bits
of steel broken off drift incredible distances
with the Winds finding lodgment in the
eyes of both man and beast.
II have had a score of such patients in
the last few weeks" said a downtown oc-
culist yesterday. Il hardly knew what to
make of II at first. People came in here
with bloodshot eyes, suffering intensely, yet
was unable TO find the irritable substance
In some OF these cases the inner lid was
cut and cross hatcheted as with knife.
With glslss / discovered tiny DIT of
steel, and since that time the matter has
been simplified. The action of the pneu-
matte tools is filling the air with particles
of steel, some OF them almost too small
to be seen with a glass; yet cutting like
diamond"

$4,000 BARRELS OF WHISKY LOST

Night

CONNELLSVILLE, Pa, November 90
Last nights fire at the Overholt distillery
at Broadford resulted in loss estimated
today at S1.600,000. The warehouse 175 by
90 feet. was totally destroyed, but the dis
tlllery proper was not badly damaged Man
ager c. w. Mauk estimates that $4,000 bar
rels OF whisky were destroyed.
1t was nearly all eight years old, and the
average value of the whisky was 80 cents a
gallon. some being worth more and some
less. The estimate includes the cost of the
casks. This estimates the value of the
whisky at S64S,OO0. The building was
valued at $4,000. The government will lose
the tax OF S1.10 a gallon on the whisky.
amounting to 1891 900. and has no way of
recovering the amount. The total loss
therefore was $1.614.G0O. The whisky was
owned by the Overholt Company and the
building was insured by the Union Insur-
ance Company. which had placed the poll
cies In various companies. The insurance
was we'll distributed, and no one company
will suffer much loss.
1t was announced that the warehouse
would be rebuilt as soon as weather con-
ditions permit and upon much larger
scale.
The distiIlery will be closed down ten
days until new grain can be purchased.
The warehouse was still burning today.
During the night the distillery was abiaze
fourteen times, but no further danger is
apprehended

LENA OFFICERS WARNED.
Cruiser Had Reason to Keep Away
From Vladivostok.

HONOLULU, November 19.-It Is reported
that the Russian cruiser Lena, which I'M
expectedly came here went near enough
to Vladivostok to get into wireless COM
munication with that port and was warned
to keep away unless in sympathy with the
people in their uprising against the gov
errment. 1t is said that the officers were
divided in opinion and that the crew was
in sympathy with the uprising. 1t is i'm
possible to confirm this report because the
captain of the Lena will not be interviewed
and the officers will not discuss the voyage
The appearance of the Lena at Homo
lulu has not yet been explained. She left
San Francisco for Vladivostok with enough
coal to carry her to her destination, and
at a time when she was due to be in that
port she steamed into Honolulu harbor
with very little coal in her bunkers.
