In behalf of Representative Hefiin the
following statement was made today:
Yesterday afternoon about $50 o'clock
Representatives James and Heflin were
walking up F street toward their hotel,
the Riggs House. and just as they had
stepped into 10Th street from the side
walk. on the same side of the street that
the old Treasury building is on, they
barely escaped being run over by an au-
tomobile in which there were two men,
the chauffeur and another man. No sig
nal was given and both gentlemen claim
that the automobile was exceeding the
speed limit
The automobile stopped at a cafe about
fifty yards from Messrs. James and
Heflin. Mr.. James said: Let's take their
number and report them to the authori-
ties for exceeding the speed limit. We
are fortunate that we were not both
killed.
1.-The two representatives walked down
within about twenty feet of the automo-
bile. took the number and returned to
street and were walking on toward
the hotel. Neither one of them had
spoken to the occupants of the automo-
bile.
when they had walked two blocks they
were hailed by one of the men in the
same automobile whose number they had
taken. In very insulting and rough
u
learned to be Johnson. demanded why
Messrs. James and Hef1in had taken his
number. whereupon Mr.. James said: I
took your number because you were guilty
of reckless driving: you were exceeding
the speed limit. and you came very near
running over both of u.s.
Congressman Irritated.
johnson denied that James knew
what he was talking about. His manner
and his words were very irritating to
Mr.. James. Mr.. James denounced. him
for his conduct and said: You can't run
US down with your automobile and then
follow us up to insult US about it.
Johnson made reply. and Mr.. Helm said /:
Now. there is no use exchanging words
about this matter. We have your num-
Der and we will take such steps as we
decide upon in the matter
johnson demanded to know who these
gentlemen were. and Mr.. James said I
am James of Kentucky Johnson sheer
ingly said: oh. that don't make any diff
ference Then Mr. Heflin told him his
name and then Johnson, in an insolent
and sarcastic way. said: Yes. you have
quite a reputation for looking out for the
public good here.

Laxative for
 Women Free

There is a great difference in the purposes to which a laxative should be put. Tablets and pills, salts, etc, are usually violent purgatives or eathartics, and altogether too power- tul for the average person.
 woman at all times needs only mild laxative--in fact, none other is needed by anyone. weak or strong though they may be. for the object Is simply to move the bowels. and # gentle laxative wni oo 't' what is the use of a 1..clent ~a.s.
 Dr. caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin has earned children and old folks-people who must necessarily be careful of what they take.
 It is liquid laxative tonic and ad- mittedly the greatest stomach, liver and bowel remedy before the American people, as 1t comes in both sizes. and all drug gists sell it. Its pleasant taste ana gentle action make it an ideal remedy for women in constipation, torpid liver, sour stom- like digestive complaints. Its use for a short time will remove the trouble en- ttrely so that future medication will be unnecessary. Its tonic properties build up that they act naturally again. That this Is so is the experience of many heads of families, like Mrs. Brannan, of Alvarado. Va, Mrs. K. L. Stout. of Louisville, Ky. Williams. Cal. as Mrs. J. B. Blackmore. Of that place, writes. the whole town seems to be using it.
 If the remedy is new to you and you want to make trial of 1t before buying. send your name to the doctors address as below and free test bottle will be sent Hou. Then, if results are satisfactory you can buy 1t of your druggist. Q

BIoated and
Sour Stomach
Need. No Longer Be Endured By Suf.
ferers from Dyspepsia.

The stomach and intestines always
contain even in health, small amount
of gases They, seem; both from i.,.s
to be essential, to some extent al ieast,
to good digestion. A great deal OF COM
mon air is swallowed with the food,
and the remarkable facility with which
air bubbles are formed in the saliva
is referrable TO this special purpose.
1t follows that oxygen and nitrogen
are natural to the stomach, and IT mas
been ascertained that nitrogen is
greatly in excess of oxygen, showing
that even in the stomach this gas is
some way employed in the vital pro-
cesses. But as gases are easily evolved
by fermentation and decomposition OF
food in the stomach and intestines, and
as saccharine and other fermentable
matters dissolved in liquids are present
in the CASTRO intestinal tube, ii results
that its aeroform contents are much
more complex than is generally sup
posed.
When digestion is perfectly healthy
there can be no fermentation and flatu-
lence, but as soon as indigestion occurs
carbonic acid gas and various other
gases are freely formed in the stomach
and bowels. causing much discomfort.
The remedies employed for the cure
of f1atulence may be classified as fol-
lows: Those which prevent fermenta-
ton; those which favor the expulsion
of gas. and those which oxidize and alb
sorb gases. OF the remedies which pos
sess the above properties, charcoal is
the only one which has the power of
preventing fermentation and decOmpO-
sition of food, and at the same time
absorbing all excess gases in the ali
mentary channel
Medicines which expel gases from the
stomach, known as carminatives, are
not to be compared with a remedy
which absorbs the gases and prevents
eructations or belching. STUART'S
CHARCOAL LOZENGES are now used
by thousands of people who We're for
meriy subject to fermentation, decom-
position. belching. bad breath, and

BOW BEFORE PORTOLA
Few Campaign Meetings Set
for Festival Week

The next to the last week of the
municipal campaign opens with a lull
in a struggle that has been exception
ally active. The politicians have ar
rived at the conclusion that the fes-
tivities of Portola week will be more
attractive than political meetings and
plans have been laid accordingly.
William Crocker and his coIlea gues
on the republican ticket will not hold
any meetings during the week, but the
mayoralty nominee will devote much
OF his time each day to personal in

AN ORATORICAL TREAT
Johnson's speech was. as a matter of
course. an oratorical treat. He called
unon all republicans to be brave enough
to stand out away from partisan INES
and eulogized the men who were on the
platform with him for their courage.
He said:
NO republican in California is big
enough to read me out of the repub-
lican party 1 take my republicanism
not from Taft, Cannon, Aldrich, Herrln
or Tim Sullivan, but from Theodore
Roosevelt. We represent here no man,
no league: we are attached or bound
up to no other movement; we are act
ing not as partisans or members OF a
party but as individuals. we Would
have had no country had 1t not, been
for the boilers of revolutionary times.
We would have had no republican
party were it not for the boilers OF
1861 who fought for a principle and
for liberty. Wee would have no mayor
such as we have today If you, the
republicans of San Francisco, had not
bolted your party two years ago"

.nFNFY LEADS WITH
40 BALLOTS AHEAD
Only Two Votes Added to the
Fickert Total and One of
These Is in Doubt
Recount Proceeds Through a
Mass of Eleven Additional
City Precincts

After worrying through mass of
ballots in IL additional precincts in the
recounting of the votes for the settle
ment of the Heney- -Ffckert controversy
as to whose name should appear on the
democratic ticket for district attorney
Ira s. Lillick, representing Ffckert,
secured two more votes for his client
yesterday, and of these one is doubtful.
AS the case now stands 29 precincts
have been counted, including those
claimed by Fickert as most favorable
to his claims. Heney has a majority
of 40 and a doubtful remaining vote.
! The first precinct to be counted when
Judge Murasky opened court was the
ninety fifth of the thirty-eighth district.
This was one of the second group OF
precincts chosen by Fickert's attorneys
/ in their charges of fraud. The great
expectations went the way of past ex-
pectations of the recount, and F1ckert
| was allowed a net gain OF two votes.
! With the conclusion of the count or TINS
precinct the votes seesawed one way
and the other, each of the parties re-
ceiving here and there a scattered vote
which had been cast aside by the elec-
| tion officers.
BOTH CONTESTANTS GAIN
! When the days labor was at an end
| the dount of the precincts, excepting
the first one counted, showed that each
man had gained four votes. The two
gained in the ninety-fifth precinct of
the thirty eighth district gave Ffckert
the lead in the days count. If the re-
count continues with the same average
result to its ultimate conclusion Heney
will have a majority of 20 votes.
aff for the latter point
/ out, however, that all the precincts
| counted up to the present are in anti
Heney territory, with the exception of
one, which the court was specially re-
ouested to investigate, and that gave
| Heney a net gain of 25 votes. One OF
| the noticeable features of the recount is
that the number of persons who did not
vote for either candidate far outnum-
bering those who did. These, it is
claimed, will play an extremely lmpor-
| tant part in the election proper
| The precincts counted yesterday were
| the first and second of the twenty
| eighth district, the fourth and fifth OF
! the twenty-ninth, the one hundred and
twenty y-fifth of the forty-first. the sixth,
seventh and eighth of the thirt1eth, the
ninth and tenth of the thirty-first and
the ninety fifth of the thirty eighth.
HAGGLE OVER BALLOTS
The doubtful vote was cast in the
ninth precinct of the thirty-first dis
trict The official count showed that II
votes had been cast there, but the re-
count only brought forth II. of which
nine went to Heney and two to Fickert
In the official count Heney received 10
votes, and it will be a question for
Judge Murasky to decide whether there
| is a ballot missing or whether the elec-
tion officers made mistake.
