first L.ancastrian to attain that high
position Sir Thomas Rawllnson. VINO

described on the records as of a Ian
castrian family" but this is a doubt
full case and il is safe to say that no
previous lord mayor was born In the
county of Lancaster.
After Sir Thomas, however there
will he. barring accidents, a succession
of Lancastrian mayors, for Sir Charles
Johnston. who viii succeed him, WAS
born in Liverpool and Sir Charles

Cltheroe in Lancashire. Sir Thomas
Rowater is a Manchester man.
He was born in 1862 and came To
London as a young man to enter pus-
mess. He is now at the head OF a large
firm Of papernakers, agents and mer-
chants. His rise to the lord mayoraltS
has been rapid. In 1879. he became a
representative on the court of common
e.uncil and in 1885 was elected shefiil
and later alderman.
Every lord mayor must have sefNeo
as alderman andfsheriff and usually al

An Easy Way To Get
Fat and Be Strong

The trouble with most thin folks who
wish to gain weight is that they insist
on dragging their stomach or stufng
it with greasy foods; rubbing ON useless
flesh creams or following some fool
ish physical culture stunt While the real
cause of thinness goes untouched. You
cannot get fat until your digestive tract
assimilates the food you eat.
Thanks to remarkable new scientific
discovery. it is now possible to combine
into simple form the very elements
needed by the digestive organs to help
them convert food into rich, fat-laden
blood. This master-stroie OF modern
chemistry is called Sargol aud has been
termed the greatest OF flesh builders.
Sargol aims through its re-generative,
re-consfuctive power to coax the stom-
ach and intestnes To literally soak up
the fattening elements OF your food and
pass them into the blood, where they are
carried to every starved, broken-down
cell and tissue of your body. You can
readily picture the result when this
amazing transformation has taken place
and you notice how your cheeks fill out,
hollows about your neck, shoulders and
bust disappear and you take on from 10
to 20 pounds of solid. healthy flesh Sar-
go is absolutely harmless, inexpensive
efficient. Your druggist has it and will
refund your money if you are not salts
fled, as per the guarantee found in every
package $50
eAUT1ON:-While Sargol has given
excellent results in overcoming nervous
dyspepsia and general stomach troubles
it should not be taken by those who do
not wish to gain ten pounds OF more

EXONERATE PELKY,
THEN ARREST HIM
Police Clap Pugilist in Cell
Dissatisfied That Coroner
Finds Him Guiltless.

CALGARY, Alberta, May 2I.-Ar-
thur Pelky was rearrested early to-
day after coroner's jury late last
night had exonerated him on the
charge of manslaughter in connection
with the death of Luther McCarty in
a prize fight with Pelky here Satur-
day. The move is unexplained, but
it is understood that the authorities
propose a further examination into
the circumstances of McCarty's death
before releasing Pelky.
The jury deliberated only short
time before returning the verdict,
staging of the contest. The authori-
ties showed they were not pleased
with the verdict.
Those who handled the legal end
of the case protested that the jury
was made up principally of men who
are friendly to Burns.
Pelky was given a preliminary hear
ing late yesterday on the police
charge of manslaughter The hear
ing was adjourned until this after
Moons Pelky's bail of $4,000 was con-
tinued.
Referee Ed Smith, Tommy Burns,
William Mccartney, McCarty's man.
ager, together with a dozen atten-
dants and newspapermen, were cited
to appear as witnesses at the hear
ing today.
DIR. H. H. Moshier, who conducted
the autopsy last night, was one of the
first witness at the inquest last
night. He testified a blow on the edge
of the right jaw, the dislocation Of the
fourth cervical vertebra, the hem
orrhage of the brain that followed
and the forcing of blood into the
spinal canal were the causes OF
McCarty's DEATH
Manager Mccartney asserted on the
witness stand that mccarthy was in
good condition when he entered the
ring. He said that in his opinion
death was not caused by blow.
McCartys body was shipped to his
home In Ohio last night. Mccartney
had planned to accompany the re-
mains, but was detained here by the
authorities.

rochial schools, is the president of the
school boys league, and chairman
