WALKERS WEEK
 IN FIERY FURNACE
Some of the Startling Incidents Wit
 messed in the Frisco Horror.

J. Ernest Walker returned home yes terday morning from San Francisco
 and intermediate points and in person ldenies the reports that he started the San Francisco earthquake and subse- quently filed a homestead entry on the
 former site of the Palace hotel. He ad- Imits though that that city furnished him the most exciting seven days visit he ever made anywhere and he hopts never to break the record in that direc- ton. When told O. the anxiety that was felt for his safety and reprimand- ed for not getting word to Phoenix sooner. he furnished an aIibi and laid all hls shortcomings on the telegraph wires. He says that at the earliest possible moment he sent three different messa ges to his wife. two to D. D. Horning. one to his father and one to
 an aunt. It is probable though that these messages which had to be taken across the bay were many of them ac- cidentally lost. as thousands were, and others were necessarily delayed for days in transmission.
 In connection with this MT. Walker relates an incident that has not yet , been published here that may clear up more or less mystery to many all aching heart. During the first two or three days of the trouble there was only impaired telegraphic communica- tion even with Oakland. and the few
 wires that could be worked had ;,, give right of way to relief work ana press dispatches which told in general the information that .i,everyoody in the country was so anxiQus 10 hear. GTea5 credit says MT. Walker. should Oe given to the authorities for doing even
 as much as they did for the individ- uals in distress. in the way of opening communication. Though they had inumberless things to look after it was iappreciated from the first that one of the hardest things to do. yet one of the most important, would be to get peo- | pie in communication with their l friends. On Thursday. the day after the first shock the news was spread around that telegraph wires as well as postal facilities were free. The people
 who had friends were invited to send them brief messages announcing safety and along in the afternoon a detach- ment of soldiers with a wagon in which | for want of something better for a re- ! ceptacle. was placed a garbage can, drove through the streets gathering up i these messages by thousands written
 on every or any available scrap of paper large enough 10 write feW words. IL was announced that thes5 messages would be taken to Oakland 1 be rewritten and sent out as fast as
 possible. Many of them were but it 1 is altogether likely that thousands of them were dumped in the bay or held back so long they could no longer be useful. But even if that were so 1t was
 a wise move for it was the hest that
 could be done and in a measure it sat
 isfied the unfOrtunates who were inn
 prisoned in the doomed city and whc
 thought or at least hoped. that the
 lnews was going to friends as fast as
 possible. It gave them some mental

Going through the hospitals in our large cities one is surprised to find such a large proportion of the patients lying on those snow-white beds women and girls, who are either awaiting or recovering from serions operations.
 Why should this be the case? Sim ply because they have neglected them selves. Female troubles are certainly on the increase among the women of this country-they creep upon them unawares, but every one of those patients in the hospital beds had plenty of warning in that bearing down feel ing, pain at left or right of the abdomen, nervous exhaustion, pain in the small of the back. dizziness, fiatulency, dis placements of the organs or irregular ities. All of these symptoms are indi- cations of an unhealthy condition of the female organs. and if not needed the penalty has to be paid by a danger Ous operation. When these symptoms manifest themselves. do not drag along until you are obliged to go to the hos pital and submit to an operation but remember that Lydia E. Pink hams Vegetable Compound has saved thousands of women from surgical operations.
 When women are troubled with ir- regular, suppressed or painful periods, weakness, displacement or alteration of the organs, that bearing-dOwn feel ing, inflammation, backache, bloating tor fiatulency), general debility, indi- gestion, and nervous prostration, or are beset with such symptoms as dizziness, lassitude, excitability, irritability, ner- vousness, sleeplessness. melancholy, all-gone" and want-to-be-left- alone feelings, they should remember there is one tried and true remedy.

 And speaking of private troubles Mr. Walker said 1t was wonderful how unnaturaLy calm nearly everybody would become at times. Having passed the limit of excitement they became stunned and recOnciled. He said stories were in circulation of the destruction of nearly all the great cities of the icountry but the stories did not seem to disturb them. There was so much present trouble that they seemed to think but little of the fate of other | cities Most of them did not even Cogitate on the possibi ity of it's being the end of the world, the final wreck | ing of mundane affairs. or their pos sible ia te in the hereafter. It was so appalling that tragedy became com monplace, heroism being the rule and not the exception, attracted no atten-
 tion, and weak, helpless man either stood silently in awe, mystlfied by his surroundings or busted himsef with l the numberless tasks that presented themselves, going about them almost 1 thoughtlessly at natures suggestion ot the practical thing to do.

The following letters cannot fail to bring hope to despairing women.
 Miss Ruby Mushrush, of East Chicago, Ind, writes
 Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 "Ihave been great sufferer with irregular periods and female trouble. and about three months ago the doctor, after using the X-Ray on me- said had an abcess and would have to have an operation. My mother wanted me to try Lydia E. Plnkhams Vegetable Compound as last resort, and it not only saved me from an operation but made me en- tirely we'll"
 Mrs. Alice Berryhill, of sI3 Boyce Street, Chattanooga, Tenn, writes: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
 ''Three years ago life looked dark to me I had alteration and inflammation of the female organs and was in a serious condition
 My health was completely broken down and the doctor told me that if 1 was not Op- erabed upon would die within six months | told him l would have no operation but would try Lydia E. Pinkhamis Vegetable Compound. He tried to influence me against it but sent for the medicine that same day and began to use it faithfully. Within five days felt relief but was not entirely cured until I used it for some time.
 {" Your medicine is certainly fine. I have induced several friends and neighbors to take it and l know more than a dozen who had female troubles and who today are as well and strong as I am from using your Vege- table Compound"
 Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound at once removes such troubles. Refuse to buy any other medicine, for you need the best.

MRS JULIA DALY'S DOVER
Claims a Largu Amount From il
 Estate Of About $20o.ooQ.

Attorney Goodwin Stoddard came from Bridgeport to-day to take part in a hearing on a motion filed by Attorney Bronson for dover for Mrs Julia Daly from the estate of Michael J. Daly her divorced husband, de- ceased. Attorney Stoddard and Judge Etheridge of Thomaston ap- peared for the heirs and Attorney Bronson and Attorney O'Neill for Mrs Daly.
 The latter were ready to proceed but Attorney Stoddard said he was not aware there was any motion for dover before the court. How did the heirs know Mrs Daily was entitled to dover, or If the estate could af- ford 1t. Would not the question of rights to dover have to be first settled before any steps tending to- ward Attorney Bronson's motion be taken.
 Attorney Bronson maintained that it was all very we'll for Attorney Stoddard to quibble in this manner but he knew what he was in court for. Certainly, Attorney Stoddard knew what he was in court for, he said, and that was how he knew there was no motion for dover be- fore the court. There was good deal to be done before dover could be awarded, presuming that Mrs Daily was entitled to 1t. In this way the discussion went on until it was de- cided to wait until the estate is ready for distribution. Joseph Daily was the only one of the heirs present and he sat by his mother.
 Mrs Daly contends that in the di- vorce proceedings she was defrauded of her portion of her husbands cs- tate It was then represented to be, this was about seven years agn, worth in the neighborhood of $12,000 one third of which she was entitled to on obtaining the divorce. Sho claims that even that amount was not paid her. MT Daily left an estate of about $200,000.

BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS
Highland AVsnls People Want Cuk
 but Object to Sidewalks.

The board of public works met last night. Mayor Thoms presiding and all the commissioners being present.
 Property owners on Highland aven- ue were called and heard regarding the laying of sidewalks. There was no objection to curb, but nobody wanted the walks, all believing that if the curDs were set and the gutters pavedp the part of the street inside the curb could be filled in with ashes. which would meet the requirements for many years. The work was favorably re. ported to the aldermen. Similar ac- ton was taken regarding the constrlc. ton of sewer in Catherine avenue. Edward McManus submitted a bid for making the state road on lower South Main street. He would do the work for $2.47 1-2 per lineal foot. Ac. ton was deferred on the proposition until next meeting.
 Proposals for paving portions of North Willow, South Elm and City street, which were opened week ago, and were expected to be acted upon last night, were left on the table for another week. The Rev c. r. |. Smith was granted permission to hold revival meetings on the green, but not In North square, as the latter place was not considered for such a purpose. The engineer reported that 1t would cost $3,9OO to pave Main street, at entrance to Hamilton park. The matter was tabled.
 Senator Tracy called attention to the need of doing something to protect the water pipe In lower Baldwin street from freezing this winter. Mir Tracy also suggested that n larger main he laid there and that 1t be carried as fnr south as the Hopeville street, 50 that the Smith X Griggs Mfg Co might have the benefit of it in case of fire. The matter will be looked up.
 J. J. Geraghty and G. H. Cloves, representing the Second Ward Im- provement association, reminded the board that they will not rest until Cooke street is laid our to Waterville. They were informed that the matter Is now in the hands of the engineer. It was voted to recommend to the al- dermen that hearings be authorized on the layout of Madison street from Baldwin es.sterly to Sylvan avenue.

ALMOST A cENTENARlAN.
Pensioned By City. But Would Not
 Give Up His Position.

The Dalkeith Advertiser of Scot- land prints the following obituary
 notice of Patrick Connolly. father of James Connolly. 84 East Clay street:
 Last Thursday the remains of MT Patrick Connolly were inferred in Dalkeith cemetery. The deceased
 was born in the village of Glenannif. County Leitrim, nearly a hundred years ago. He first visited Scotland in search of work in the year 18S6, and revisited Ireland to see his wife and children several times between that year and 1S46. In that year he went home. and things were in such a deplorable state in Ireland. owing to the famine. that he brought back his wife and children and settled in the village of Crichton. His recollec- tons of the terrible havoc wrought by the famine were most vivid, and were eagerly listened to by younger generations. Old Pat, as he was more familiarly known by. has lived in Pathhead for nearly half a cen tury, and at 95 years of age was able to act as the road man for the village. For several years he has been the re- cipient of pension from the Mid Lothian county council. but his inde- pendence would not allow him a we'll deserved rest. and till the last six months he could be almost daily seen parading the village with his shovel and broom. Unlike many old men, he was never made the butt of any annoyance from children, who seemed to revere the old man. Being en- dowed with most retentive memory. his recollections of events that hap- pened early in the last century were retained most minutely to all those who had an hour to spare-the Irish famine. Waterloo. the reform bill of 1882. repeal of the corn laws, and the Crimean war were favorite sub jects of his. Compared with the gen. eral standing of education a hundred years ago, one would say he was an excellent scholar, and he was keen reader, and, of course, a keen sup porter of any measure of reform pro- posed for his native Ireland. He has left behind him several sons and q daughter, some of them considerably over seventy years of age also num- Der of grandchildren and great grandchildren. The funeral service was held at St David's, Dalkeith, and after the ceremony the Rev Father Head gave a short address to the mourners. in which he remarked that nearly 70 years ago. when he was first appointed to St Mary's. Path had pafrick ConnoIiv xraa avan thar known to his friends as "Old" Patrick. After touching on the in- finitesimal value of time In compari- son with eternity. and alluding to the long life of the deceased. he congrat- ulated his relations and descendants on the exemplary life he had led, and spoke of the long sermon of example which he had preached during his whole life, and especially during the period he had known him personally. By his death the oldest inhabitant in three parishes has passed away.
