RIVERSIDE, Cal. Aug. T. In an address
delivered before the Chamber Of Com

field, Secretary Of the Interior, alluded
TO the fine imposed upon the Standard Oil
Company. In the course Of his speech
he said;
The decision and fine are the end of a
long fight n will teach the people OF this
country that no man. big or little. il above
the law. The Standa rd Oil Company and
other like great corporations have gone
ahead on the theory that they we're no pow
erful that they could do things the ordinary
citizen could not do. We are showing them
that they cannot.
Asked If the Government could collec

Yes. you may be assured we can. There

Air Untl FIremen Got u.
A boy about IL years old, who has not
yet beer identified. was killed yesterday
afternoon by wires under the tracks on the
elevated trolley structure that connects
the Barclay street ferry, Hoboken, with
Jersey City Heights. IL was at the highest
point in the tracks. about seventy feet above
Marshall street near Harrison, that the
boys body hung until il was taken down
by firemen.
II is believed that he and some COM
panions were walking under the trestle
when they were attracted by birds nests
I'M among the %stringers. The boy climbed
up to the tracks n came in contact with
several feed wires Just below the rails.
His body dropped into a network Of light
and telephone wires and remained there
e~ntangled. His companions ran away
without sImmoning aid.
When the body was discovered Truck
No. = Of the Hoboken department was
called out. The ladders were too short 10
reach the body. and Lieut.. Charles Dunn
and Engineer James Dunn had to climb up
TO the tsngle OF wires TO lower the body
TO the ground with ropes. The body was
removed to McLoughlin's morgue.

The Midland Steel Company idea was
conceived in what may be termed a III Of

in Pittsburg had owned the Carrie furnaces
before the formation Of the steel trust, and
u Of these furnace Andrew Carnegie,
who was in on the ground floor Of the steel
trust, turned a pretty penny. Without
telling what was in the wind Carnegie ia
said to have gone to the owners OF the
furnaces and offered them q large sum for
an option on the furnaces. The price offered
was much in excess OF the prevailing quota
lions on blast furnaces and for a few DAYS
the owners thought they had indeed struck
a good thing. When the Steel Corpora

furnaces at q price some millions ahead

Paderewski's Programs.

One of the most potent factors in
PadereWskis success has been the ad-
nlirable program he has arranged for
his concerts-in fact, his programs

of the orchestral conductors, has failed

the giving of concerts and more often

When Paderewski comes to America
to give seventy or eighty concerts in
six months as he is doing this season
he must prepare before he sails not
less than ten different programs. This
does rot mean. of course, that the
same work will not appear on more
than one program. but as rule it will
not appear IN mere than three, or four

known is conventional programs, con-
ventional because PaderewsKi was the
first to arrange them and because he
uses them more than any others.

rendered at the March term of the SUI
pren1e judicial court. 1902. The tran

ACQUIRED in 1890 relating to the sale
of ice by the plaintiff to the defend
ants estate The claim of the plaintiff
was first filed in probate court and
passed upon by very competent COM
niiSsionerS, who made an award in ia
vor of the plaintiff of 500. An appeal
was taken from this award and the
present action brought in accordance
with the statute The case was tried
before jury. which awarded Il verdict
of s260.34, being less than that allowed
by the commissioners. The case has Al
so been before this court once before
on a Eetition for review. The present
petition is based upon the allegation
OF newly discovered evidence. After
careful reading OF the testimony tax
en- at the trial. that the new evidence
could not have been procured at the
trial does not sufficiently appear to
convince me that justice requires that
a new trial should be granted upon this
ground: nor. in view of the fact that
the presiding justice charged the jury
that the defendants had received full
compensation for the ice shipped in
the Lottie X. Friend. that the alleged
newly discovered evidence if admitted,
would change the result, because it is
Enthusiastically true that the jury We're
as clearly authorized under this in
Struction to charge the defendants in
their verdict for the full value Of this
cargo. as they would be under the
newly discovered evidence: and there
fore, the fact that a witness at the trial
was contradicted by letter found in
the letter book of his firm showing
that he was mistaken in his testimony
with respect to the quality of the ice
contained in the Lottie X. Fried. and
actually had in mind the ice contained
in another vessel, would not, even if
newly discovered, warrant reopen
ing of this long drawn out cOntrOver-
sy But still greater obstacle in the
way OF the plaintiffs petition. is the
fact that 1 am not at all persuaded
that the letter book could not have
been produced at the first trial by the
exercise of due diligence. In my opin-
ion. Justice requires that the case

and whether justice requires IL revision
of the decree, present issues OF fact.
The determination of the justice there
on and the exercise Of the judicial dis
erection conferred on him are final and
conclusive.
4-When leave is granted to enter and
prosecute such an appeal, by justice
having jurisdiction, matters of fact or
law which were heard and determined
by him cannot be heard again upon
motion to dismiss the appeal which he
granted.
THE only question which can be

Justice had jurisdiction to grant leave.

has used due diligence in prosecuting

fifth. the superintendent and matron Of
the farm. The festivities commenced
last evening when a Christmas tree So
cial VAS held for the enjoyment Of
those who make their homes at the
farm. The tree was n big one and
was laden with presents, something for
everyone, in which were included
clothing. hose. aprons. handkerchiefs
and other articles, all Of which were of
a useful nature, and then there were
bags of candy, nuts, popcorn, oranges,
etc, in abundance. The evening
proved TO be one of much pleasure to
all. Today a Christmas dinner will be
served, with chicken and all the fix
ings. together whit all kinds of good
things. and the day will doubtless be
one that will long be remembered.

WHAT CAUSES INDIGESTION
To be Cured, Weakness of Stomach,
Muscles Must be Overcome.

The chief cause Of indigestion is The
weakness of the stomach muscles and
the lack of gastric juice.
To make a complete cure of stomach
trouble most people think they have to
give up business and devote their time
to dieting, exercise, and. perhaps, a
vacation.
But by taking Mi-o-na stomach
tablets the stomach muscles will be
stimulated and strengthened and the
flow of gastric juice will be increased.
Mi-o-na does not do the stomach's
work; it makes the stomach strong
enough to do it. In this way the
trouble is completely cured and there
is no further need of medicine.
No matter how severe a case Of
stomach trouble you have, Mi-o-na will
| cure it by strengthening the whole
| digestive system. and you will soon
find that both stomach and bowels do
| their work as they should.

remedy does not give complete salts
