An Ever.Present Foe.

The soldier and the sailor are es-
pecially subject to catarrh. In the
barracks and on the field, Peruna is
found equally efIicacious to overcome
this physical enemy. If taken in time
it will prevent colds from developing
into catarrh. Even after cold has
settled in some organ of the body,
Peruna can be relied upon as an eff
cacious remedy to promptly overcome
it.
Perupa will relieve catarrh, whether
acute or chronic, but few doses of
it taken in the first stages of the dis
ease will be more effective than when
the disease has become established.

The MASSILIA
IN A CYCLONE
Armed Guard Awe Frantic Italian
Immigrants Decks swept
Clean by Hurricane.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-The Italian
steamship Massilia, which sailed from
Palermo on Sept. l with 622 steerage
passengers, was swept by a terrible
hurricane on Sept. II.
While twenty-five. of the crew., armed
with rifles, We're on guard at the doors
and hatchways 800 frantic Greeks and
Italians We're climbing over each other
to get to the decks. panic stricken wo-
mon We're ~shrielang and praying, the
ship was bouncing like a toy on the
waves. and mountains of water swept
the decks.
The Massilia ON arrival here showed
signs of the experience she went
through. Everything movable on her
decks was washed away, her ventila-
tors were bent and twisted, one of the
matches was torn off, and the top of
her mizzen mast was broken by a
wave. Captain Murli says that in the
forty-two years he has followed the
sea he never saw Il storm like the one
through which he brought his ship six
days ago.
pUAOhiNiti gave NRlhiiS VI '

he morning, when the first force OF
the storm was felt, the steerage was
locked. AS the passengers became
frantic with fear, Michael Carturano.

in charge of the immigrants, and twen-
ty-five members OF the crew, armed
with rifles, went below to control them,
Captain Murli and his chief officer
dashed themselves on the bridge and
remained there during the ten hours
duration of the storm.
During the height of the gale the
heavy seas smashed a pen containing
several bulls, which fioundered about
the decks, believing with terror. A
number of wine casks which were
dashed on deck broke adrift at the
same time, and the decks were a scene
of indescribable confusion with the
e Il breaking over the ship ut every
roll. The flying wine casks broke the
legs Of the bulls, and one of them was
washed overheard.
Meantime there was a scene almost
terrifying under the battened matches
of the steamer, where the immigrants
We're confined to prevent them from
reaching the decks and being washed
into the sea. While the steamer was
rolling and pitching heavily two cleo
trio light wires in the immigrants
quarters became crossed, and the ex-
plosion which followed added to the
terror of the passengers, who We're al
ready either on their knees praying or
fighting among themselves in n frantic
effort to escape from the ships hold.

RABBI MADE
COMPLAINT 7.
Recorder Heard Three Cases in
Police Court Last Night
Hebrew in Trouble.

Three cases were tried by Record
or Pickersgill last night in the police
court.
The first was that of Rabbi Shock
ct against James Cleary. According
to the story of the rabbi, who is a
short, stout man, with a long black
beard, Cleary recently grabbed him
by tho whiskers to make him let go
of a small boy, who was being held
by the rabbi at the time.
1t seems thai some small boys had
thrown some stones at the rabbi on
the day of the assault, and the rabbi
grabbed a youth whom he thought
did the pelting. The boy protested;
and it vas at this time that Cleary,
who was in a house nearby, came out
and grabbed the man. He caused the
rabbi to release his hold on the boy
at once. Lyman Shragovitz acted as
interpreter for the rabbi, and Law
yer Kehoe spoke for Cleary.
Both sides of the case wanted a
witness by the name of Lowenkoff,
and the hearing was finally adjourn
ed until next Monday morning.
Mr.. Shragovitz after the case was
over, expressed in loud terms his
opinion of the police and the defend
ant, and had to be told to stop by the
sergeant.
The case of Annie Jacko against
George Doni, in which Lawyer Ste
phen Somogyi acted as both counsel
and interpreter, was finally held for
the grand jury, DOME furnishing the
required $500 bail.
Three men named Bilgrav, Dahl
and Mulvaney, then appeared in
front of the railing, and asked that
their case be tried. n. c. Nelson,
the complaint, was called, but could
not be found in the small crowd that
was on the outside of the building.
The facts of complaint were that Mel
son alleges that the three men had
beaten him in a bar room recently
without any cause. One of the men
named Mulvaney, was asked by the
recorder last night to tell the story
in regard to what happened at the
time.
"Well,' said Mulvaney, "Nelson
was half barreled up, and started a
fight with Bilgrav and Dahl. | tried
to separate them, and he grabbed me
by the throat, so | clipped him a
couple, and that was ALL"
"Well, I don't much blame you,"
said the recorder, and seeing that
Nelson is not here to press the
charge, I'll dismiss the case"

DAM PLEADS GUILTY.

Joseph DAM, of 80 Inslee street,
the saloonkeeper whose place was
found open and beer being sold there
at s o'clock Sunday night, was again
arraigned before Recorder Pickers-
gill this morning. DAM was arrested
Sunday night and was not tried yes
terday morning on account of Chief
Burke wishing to have a complaint
drawn up, whereby DAM could be
held under the state excise law, in
stead of filming him $40 for violating
the city ordinance for selling on Sun
day. The complaint was read to the
saloonkeeper this morning, and he
pleaded guilty at once.
The grand jury will try the case
later and DAM furnished $500 bail
for his appearance at the trial.
Should the grand jury so decide, the
license for a saloon at 80 Inslee
street will be annulled at once, which
is the penalty prescribed by law.
