Truth and
Quality

appeal to the Well-lniormed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and crcditable standing. Accor-
ingly, it is not claimed that Syrup Of Figs
and Elixir of SIENNA is the only remedy Of
known value, but one Of many reasons
why it is the best of personal and family
lnxatives is the fact that it clcanses,
swcetens and relieves the internal organs
on which it acts without any facilitating
after effects and without having to increase
the quantity from time TO time.
1t acts pleasantly and naturally and
truly rs n laxative, and its component
parts arc known to and approved by
physicians. as it is free from all objection
allie substances. To get its beneficial
effects always purchase the genuine
manufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co, only, and for sale by all leading drug
gi6ts.

ARSENAL WAS CROWDED
WITH NEGRO REFUGEES

Springfield. Tll.--A genuine scare
was caused at the headquarters In the
arsenal Sunday night after squad
had been sent to dispense n crowd at
Allen and Spring streets. Five min
utes later report reached Lieut.. Col
Eddy that shots had been fired in the
threatened district. He Immediately
sent full platoon to the place to re-
inforce the squad. When the add
tional soldiers appeared the crowd
broke and ran. The soldiers pursued
them for several blocks and the dis
trict which is near the scene OF sat
urday nights lynching, was In an up
roar for a few minutes The arsenal
was crowded Sunday night with ne.
gro refugees from Springfield and sur
rounding towns About 200 men
women and children sought the shelter
of the building and slept on the floor
or in chairs. Most OF these people
we're old and infirm, but they endured
the hardships OF their quarters rather
than face the prospects OF passing
the night in their homes beset with
momentary fears of attack.
Col. Sanborn and Gen. Wells, com
mandng two provisional brlgades,
formed Sunday. increased the nobill'
tv of their forces-augmented by the
arrival of the Second infantry from
Chicago-by using farm wagons, The
use OF automobiles was discontinued
and but few patrols were sent out
on street cars. Gen, Wells had ten
vehicles and Col Sanborn as many
more.
Just as good as horpes, said Gen
Wells. when we get the alarm from
the city hall Just ordered my 'shaf
ter cavalry into the wagon and they
were off In no time"
