The meeting will be entirely in the

ONE PASSENGER
FALL SAVES LIFE

The fall of W. W. Millard from a
Vernon car last night at Twentieth and
Central avenue saved the many passen-
gers on the car from imminent death.
Millard told the motorman to stop at
Twentieth street, and then as the car
passed the street Millard stepped off.
He was thrown to the ground and sus-
tanned severe bruises upon the knees
and cuts upon the head.
The motorman instantly applied the
brakes and went back to assist the in
jured man. Just as he stepped off the
car a heavy tree, blown down by the
gale of wind which was then blowing,
crashed down across the tracks.
The tree was large one and had the
car continued on its course 1t would al
most certainly have been struck and
possibly crushed.
Tho guy wires holding the trolley
wire in place were snapped like threads
and the heavy copper strand that car
rled the electricity was also broken.
Traffic was held up for more than half
repaired and the tree removed from
the track.
Millard stated that he had spent the
day at Catalina island and on the re-
turn trip became very sick. He was
still dizzy when he arrived at the street
where his home was.
After he told the motorman to stop
the car he was unable by reason OF his
dizziness to see whether the car had
come to stop or not, and accordingly
he stepped off while the car was still
moving rapidly.
Millard was taken to the receiving
hospital where his injuries We're at
tended to. He later went to his home

o'clock this afternoon the first section
of the first Raymond -Whicomb excur-

into a vehicle driven by Thomas f.
Russell Of South Pasadena at the Cali

the old man and smashing his wagon to

Russell was quite advanced in years
and drove about the city gathering
refuse with which to feed his chickens.
He had little shack perched on the
arroyo side at South Pasadena, and
there he made his living by peddling
eggs and fowls. Having only one arm
the old fellow was unable to do any
manual labor.
Just before the collision Russell had
been proceeding eastward on Califor-
MIA street. The side of the Pasadena
Milling company's building shut off his
view of the approaching train and the
rattle of the cans in his wagon pre-
vented his hearing the roar of the

What Sulphur Does
For the Human Body in Health
and Disease
COSTS NOTHING TO TRY

The mention Of sulphur will recall to
many of us the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave us our
daily dose of sulphur and molasses
every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all, and
mind you, this old-fashioned remedy
was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and large
quantity had to be taken to get any
effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in a palatable con-
eentrated form, so that a single grain
IS far more effective than tablespoon
full Of the crude Fulphur.
In recent years research and expert
ment have proven that the best sui
phur for medicinal use is that obtained
from Calcium Calcium Sulphide) and
sold in drug sto.-s under the name of
Stuarts calcium Waters. ley are
small chocolate coated pellets and con-
tain the active medicinal principle of
sulphur in highly concentrated, eff
fective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form Of sulphur in restoring and
maintaining bodily vigor and health;
sulphur acts directly on the liver and
excretory organs and purifies and en-
riches the blood by the prompt elirnina-
ton of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
ers of sulphur were often worse than
the disease. and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
of sulphur of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely ed.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure con-
stipation and lurify the blood in a
way that often surprises patient and
physician alike.
DIR. r. M. Wilkins, while experiment.
ing with sulphur remedies, soon found
that the sulphur from Cali 'um was SUI
perior to any other form. He saws:
"For liver, kidney and blood troubles
especially when resulting from consti-
patton or malaria, have been sur
prised at the results obtained from
Stuart's Calcium Waters. In patients
suffering from boils and pimples and
sven deep-seated carbuneles. have
speatedly seen them dry up and dis
ssDpear in four or five days, leaving the
Kin clear and smooth. Although Stu
arts Calcium Waters Is a proprietary
article and sold by druggists and for
that reason tabOoed by many physi-
clans, yet l know of nothing so safe
and reliable for constipation, liver and
kidney troubles and especially In all
ferns of skin diseases as this remedy.
At any rate people who are tired OF
pills, cathartics and so-called blood
''purifers" will find I'm Stuart's Calcium
Waters a far safer, more palatable
and effective preparation.

TELL OF DIFFICULTIES IN THE
NORTH
San Francisco Salvation Army Men
Are rendered Rousing Recep-
tlon at San Pedro Street
Barracks

Commissioner George A. Kilbey ant
Colonel George French of the Salvation
Army arrived in Los Angeles yesterday
from San Francisco on tour of in.
spection of army work.
Commissioner Kilbey last night ex-
pressed himself with a hearty "God
bless you' that the army work was
progressing with gratifying results in
the devastated city, Notwithstanding
the earthquake and fire had obliterated
nearly every trace of it.
They did wipe out our work. said
Commissioner Kilbey, "but the show
ing now is most hopeful in gather
ing ourselves up again in the great
army work. We have had very success
full meetings there lately and for the
continuance of the good cause we have
rented a building at the corner of Post
and Fillmore streets for three years,
which is very central place in which
to hold our meetings.
"All of the branches of the army
work is progressing finely up north.
We have just inspected our Lytton
Springs orphanage of about 100 chill
dren and it is a delightful place for
the little tots, so much so that Los
Angeles judge has sent several of the
little ones from this city to the or
phanage."
1t was a very busy day yesterday
for the commissioner in the time al.
lotted him in looking over the loca
field. He seemed much pleased last
night in the prospects of the army
work in Los Angeles and vicinity.
A reception was given Commissioner
Kilbey last night at the hall on Sar
Pedro street, which was filed with
army people and friends. When the
commander entered he was given three
rousing cheers that the army Is capable
and always ready to give.
Colonel French opened the meeting
Hymns were sung, augmented by the
army band, and Staff Captain Camp
bell and Mrs. Major Morton Offered
prayer.
Brigadier Pebbles sang selection
which was followed by few remarks
by Commissioner Kilbey with special
reference to the work in the north.
Brigadier Pebbles sang another song
| following which he made brief re-
| marks.
Commissioner Kilbey read a portion
of the fifth chapter of Luke, which was
| the foundation for extended remarks
of cheerful nature.
Commissioner Kilbey will have
charge Of the services at Corps No.
on San Pedro street Mrs. Kilbey, who
was detained in the north, Will arrive
this morning and will have charge OF
the services at Corps No. 1, Eighth and
Olive streets, this afternoon.
Tomorrow evening Mrs. Kilbey will
give a stereopticon lecture at Choral
hall, Temple auditorium, on Salvation
Army Rescue and Slum Work"
One of the main features of business
transacted by the commissioner while
here will be the selection of a site
for the new army headquarters. 1t is
thought that the site now occupied by
the woman's boarding home on East
Fourth street, near Main, owned by
the army, will be used. Accommoda-
tions will be made in the new building
for the boarding home.

as Democrats and Republicans to fight

non-partisan action meant the dlsor-
ganization of the party machine.
That is just our aim. The organiza-
ton has become too strong for its own

give the people an opportunity to have

Ben Ward Speaks

Previous to the address of Mr. Gates,
Ben Ward made what he termed as a
heart-to-heart talk. He said that the
taxpayers of the city were confronted
by conditions which make it imperative
that they select capable men for office,
and especially an assessor who could
rot be controlled by corporations. Such
man, he said, was Walter Mallard,
who had been his chief deputy for eight
years He declared that the same in
terests who fought him are fighting
Mallard and for the same reasons.
Mr.. Ward declared that he still was a
good Republican and that the men who
were disrupting the Republican party
were the Walter Parkers and the
Luther Browns. He said that the head
of the Republican party of the state
was Herrin In San Francisco, and that
his chief lieutenant was Abe Ruef.
Mr.. Ward perpetrated a pun on Ruef
by declaring that this same Ruef
stands a good chance of passing a few
years under the roof of penitentiary."
