appeal to the Informed in every
walk of life and are essential to permanent
success and creditable 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
lSxatives is the fact that it cleanses,
sweetens 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 as a laxative, and its component
parts are known to and approved by
physicians, as it is free from all objection
able 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
gists.

The Alabama cases, by agreement of
all parties concerned, were consolidated.
and therefore two hours were given to
each side. 1t was regarded as the most
important of all the contests, because OF
the fact that twenty-five delegates were
involved. and il is first in the list OF
states that Will be called in the conVen-
ton when nominations are being made.
The candidate securing the delegation
from Alabama is sure to be the first
placed in nomination. because the state,
having no candidate of its own, always
yields to that state presenting the candi-
date favored by Alabama.
All except members of the national
committee were excluded from the room
at 4:l5 p. m, and few minutes later
it was known that the Taft delegates
mad been seated. There was no demand
for a roll call, and on the viva vote eX-
preston it is said that only Mr.. Scott
of Alabama voted for the seating of the
delegates elected by his faction.
Arkansas Contest.
The Arkansas contest. involving the two
delegates from the Fifth congressional
district, was then taken up. Only half
an hour was devoted to it, and the COM
mittee voted without a dissenting voice
to seat the delegation instructed by Sec
rotary Taft.
The other delegation claimed to be for
Tafts nomination also, but it was not in
structed.
All or the members Oh the committee
were present in person except fifteen.
Thirteen CT these were represented by
proxies. including:
California, by Senator Charles w. Full

SMALL FORTUNE IN BELT.
Money Found on Man Arrested as (

 Lunatic in the White House.
 Washington, Oct Civilian A. Rugg of Springfield, Mass, who was arrested in the white house grounds about two weeks ago and was com mitted. to the insane asylum here for observation, told the policeman who arrested him that he knew of plot on foot to harm Mrs Roosevelt and he came here to warn her. When Rugg was taken to the police sta- tion he was searched, and a razor, piece of soap and $10 were found on him.
 Despite this searching the man had a small fortune concealed about his person which was overlooked by the police. It develops through the visit of brother to this city that when Rugg was taken to the hospital $3,- 450 in gold notes, six bank books and $50 shares of valuable mining stock were concealed in a broad belt which he wore around his waist. Rugg violently protested against talk ing the belt from him and he became almost unmanageable. It was neces- sary to place him in straitjacket. The property has been turned over to Rugg's brother.
 The physicians at the hospital say that Rugg is suffering from mild form of cerebral insanity and will re- cover,

Yesterday Was Most Impressive Day
 of Ancient Race. "
 Tom Kippur. most impressive of the religious days of an ancient race, was observed by the Jews through out the city from sunset Sunday evening and continuing for 24 hours,
 Services were held In the syna- gogues and in halls. All orthodox Jews excepting children less than IS years old, participated In the solemn fast.
 The Day of Atonement. as Tom Kippur also is called, Is regarded as the most important of all the days prescribed by the Biblical commands It's observance is ordered in a pas sage in Leviticus. Other festivals may be considered as having a na- tional or a historical significance, but Tom Kippur is day when all the deep religious feeling of the Jews Is made manifest. Its obser- vance is considered imperative. No food or drink must he tasted until the last prayer is recited Dafore the departure for the synagogue there Is time given for meditation and for purifying of the soul. and if any bears i'll will to one of his own faith he must forgive and forget. In the orthodox houses of worship all the old observances are retained, even to the wearing of shrouds and sandals. In the Jewish calendar this is the 10th day of the month Tishri, and it Is the conclusion of the penetential period associated with the New Year.
 Burning of many candles is asso- ciated with the day and the doors of dwellings are opened wide.

course furnished the delegate by
some one in the employ of the pen
sion Office, and Mr.. Andrews was too
old a hand at the political game not
to understand how to take advantage
of a situation. AS The Independent
has repeatedly claimed, there are few
of he pensions being granted to New
Mexico soldiers of which Delegate
Andrews has the slightest cognizance.
He keeps himself informed as to
when a pension is granted and then
writes to the pensioner in a manner
which would indicate thai he had
been instHumenta in assisting nim.
1t is a rather sharp game from a po-
litical standpoint, but it is not one
which appeals to fa~ir-milded, think
ing people, and as in the instance
above mentioned the vast majority of
the pensioners resent tine methods
being adopted by the delegate and
will take the greatest pleasure in vot-
ing against him next fall should he
be the Republican nominee.

ample of the name in which Dele

made application for a pension thru
his Washington attorneys. He had new

Delegate Andrews upon the subject,

granted he received a letter from the
astute delegate informing him that
