General Demand

of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
cellent combination OF Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits OF the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-lnformed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine-manufactur by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents

Clergyman Dies.
Rev. William T..Dlxon. D. D., Pastor of thu
Concord Baptist Church Of Christ.
Brooklyn. N. Y. For Fort.sk
Years. Passes Away.
BY N. B. DODSON,

ny ENs D. DOOoON.
The Rev. William T. Dixon, d. D.,
who died at his late home in Brook
lyn, n. Y, recently, was one of the most
distinguished as well as widely known
Baptist preachers among Afro-Ameri-
cans in the United States. At the time
his death occurred he had been the
faithful pastor Of the Concord Baptist
Church Of Christ, Brooklyn, for nearly
forty-six years, having taken charge
In October, 1863. He received his H.
cense to preach from the Abyssinia
Baptist church, New York, in 1883.
Before entering the ministry DR.. Dixon
taught public school at Stonington
Conn; Flushing, N. Y, and at Balti-
more. 1t was while he was a teacher
In the latter city that he met Miss Ma
tilda A. Wilson, whom he afterward
married. Five children were born to
them, two Of whom survive him.
Mrs. Dixon, however, did not live very
long. DR.. Dixon's second marriage
was to Miss Angeline c. Frazier of
Arlington, Va, who, with two children,
survives him.
William Thomas Dixon was born In
Elizabeth street, New York, Sept. 8,
1893. His parents were George L. and
Matilda Dixon. He received his edu-
cu.rv" IN .Irc -puuIic ,cnvvI5 Drv,n-
lyn, where he lived nearly all of his
life. Among his closest friends in
the ministry for number of years
were Henry Ward Beecher, DR.. Storrs,
Hiram Hutchins, Rufus Lewis Perry,
Amos N. Freeman, T. Doughty Miller,
r. D. Wynn and William II. Philips.
of whom only the latter two are liv-
Ing. Or. Dixon was not rated as
pulpit orator, but an effective preacher
of the simple gospel of Jesus Christ.
AS a pastor he was faithful and true
to the members of his church and con-
gregation and the public generally,
for he visited the sick, aged and infirm
OF all denominations and was called
the pastor Of all the people, the dean
OF the AfrO-American clergy. The
Concord Baptist Church Of Christ, of
which he was the pastor, was started
In a little frame building on Concord
street, near Gold. At the time Pastor
Dixon took charge of it there were
about fifty scattered members. few Of
whom, as he often SAID, loved lions
solemn feasts. He leaves united
church with 1,099 members and church
property valued at $4,000.
About thirty years ago Pastor Dixon
preached stirring sermon against
adultery which nearly rent the mem
bership Of his church His life was
threatened by some of the members,
and for long time he had to be
guarded in going to and from the serv-
ices Of the church. Many of the mem
bers withdrew their support, and as
he put 1t, he had hard road to travel,
but he Outlived all of those who de-
spised him and died beloved and re-
spected by all who knew him Of both
races. DR.. Dixon was one OF the
founders Of the New England Baptist
missionary convention thirty-six years
ago, OF which he served as correspond
Ing secretary for nineteen years, and
at the time Of his death had been its
.',e-able president for nine years.

HUMP IS TAKEN
OUT Of STREET

The T. R. & P. company will
have to move off Puyallup avenue
and get a private right of way to
reach its bridge over the Puyallup
river.
The city council last night
changed the grade of Puyallup
avenue at Bay street, making 1t
a level grade and cutting out the
hump the commissioner and en-
gineer had previously put in the
street at this point to benefit the
street railway.
The city will now go ahead and
pave both Puyallup avenue and
Bay street on the new grade. The
street railway will have to buy
property from the Union Pacific
to put its trestle approach on.
The Hartman people have already
offered to sell 1t what is needed.
