appeal to the Well-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
laxatives 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
she 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.

DO WOMEN GET WORSE 5?
LOMBROSVS COMMENTS ON THE
STEINHEIL CASE.
Women Criminals Twice as Numerous
as They Were a Century
Ago.

TURIN, Italy, Jan. 19.-Cesare LON
broso. commenting on the Steinheil case,
says that century ago there were only
s to 10 women criminals for every 100
male criminals, whereas now the proper
ton is 20 to % for every 100, and in
a certain class of crimes, as poisoning and
premeditated acts of vengeance women
offenders are even more numerous than
men.
He declares that what is known of the
Steinheil case confirms conclusions ar
rived at long ago by criminal anthropolo-
gy and stated by himself and Ferrero
in woman Criminals" Considering
the Steinheil case in some of its details,
he remarks:
First of all, Mime. Steinheil is an
hereditary, hysterical degenerate, as are
all born delinquents, few though they
be. She was born of parents who made
a gross abuse of love and alcohol
Mime. Steinheil. who has the large
jaw and cheek bones of the degenerate,
suffered when a child from chlorosis and
Mysteries, eating worms and soil and Civ
ing proofs of that strange precocity
found in a few sufferers from hysteria.
She married at very early age. There
is mention of a child born earlier. She
had. moreover, the paroxysms OF hys-
terics almost in an epiloidical form which
seized her periodically and which are
evidenced in the violent outbursts, and,
above all. in the absurd falsehoods and
illogical calumnies against Wolf, Couil-
lard. her mother and her husband; cal
umnies and lies which became easier and
more efticacious in consequence of her
singular suggestive ability, as she ended
by being in part persuaded of their au-
thenticity herself.
But what is singular in the woman
and what won her an entry in the best
society and their love when she got there
is the fact that she possessed great intel
luctual ability. She sang and played de-
lightfully, could talk with splendid vi
vacity, and possessed most charming
manners and real accesses of philan-
thropic altruism in virtue of which she
comforted the unhappy, the sick and the
aged in the way that fostered the pre-
sumption that behind all there lay soul
of the most exquisite delicacy.
''This, however, is peculiar to the bet
ter class of immoral women-to the wom-
en- of the time of Louis XIV, to Het-
aerae of Greece as well as to those who
decorate our renaissance with beautiful
works of art and literature"

INSURANCE PROBE ON
COMMISSIONERS BEEDL INvESTI.
eating FIRE RISK COMPANIES.
Will Compel Concerns to Pay Additional
Fees for Writing Policies Other
Than Charter Calls for.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 1S.-[Special1
"A thorough investigation of the class
of insurance being issued by the various
fire insurance companies of the state has
been started by Insurance Commissioner
George E. Beedle. In making an appli-
cation to the department for permission
to do business in the state, the company
states the character it will write. 1t
transpires, however, that afterwards
other classes Of insurance, such as ma
rine, and tornado, are written while no
extra fee is deposited with the depart
ment for the writing of these various
kinds of insurance. The department has
so many inquiries about the companies
that the investigation has been started.
After the first admission in the state
of the fire insurance companies, there is
usually no statement required of the
companies as to the class of business
pursued when application is made at the
end of the year for a continuance of the
certificate. The investigation will de-
termine how many companies in the
state handle various kinds of insurance,
such as fire, marine, plate glass, tornado,
employers liability insurance, steam boil
er and fidelity.
1t is believed as a result of this in
vestigation, that a law will be passed
requiring the companies to file reports
showing the class of business being
written.

Gov. Gillett Grants Request, Delaying

SACRAMENTO Cal, Jan. 19-The
Sacramento Union today says: Presi-
dent Roosevelt has taken hand in the
anti-Japanese legislation now before the
California Legislature and has asked the
governor to take steps to have all legis-
lation held up until the President can be
heard in the matter In the telegram
sent Saturday this request was embodied
and a letter is en- route to Sacramento
which will give the chief executives
views and wishes in the matter of legis-
lation against the ''little brown men,
Gov. Gillett telegraphed in reply that
he has caused the bills to be held up I'M
til he can hear further from the Presi-
dent.
The Drew measure prevents owner
ship of property for more than seven
years by aliens and this measure was
reported out of committee today favor
ably, and was to have passed through
the Assembly. 1t was held up until
Wednesday when it was made special
order of business and, according to Gov
Gillett, will probably be postponed still
further when that time arrives.

TO SETTLE BOUNDARY.
American, British and Canadian Diplo-
mats Will Confer on Fisheries
Question This Week

WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. 49,
During the present week, beginning
probably Thursday, important confer
ences will be held between the state de-
partment officials, Ambassador James
Bryce of Great Britain, Attorney Gen
eral Kent, representing the premier Of
Newfoundland, and A. B. Aylesworth,
Canadian minister of Justice, on the
Newfoundland fisheries question, which
is to be referred to the Hague for
arbitration.
Secretary Root and the British am
bassador have agreed on the terms of
the questions to be submitted but they
have not yet received the approval Of
the Canadian and Newfoundland gov
ernments. The points at issue touch the
rights of American fishermen in the
waters of British North America under
the treaty of 1918.
The American authorities are anxious
to get the fisheries treaty ratified by the
Senate at the present session, this being
necessary before the disputed questions
can be submitted to the Hague court.
