4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 7, 1895 PACIFIC COAST REWS Grizzled Veterans Make Merry at Santa Monica. REAL CAMP LIFE BEGINS. Guard Mount Participated in by the “Boys” of the Tented City. MEETING OF THE AUXILIARY. Six Arimy Nurses of the Rebelllon Present at the Women’'s Conclave. SANTA MONICA, CaL., Aug. 6.—“What a jolly, contented man the veteran is,”’ said a bright daughter of the regiment to Tae CaLyl correspondent this mor after she had made the tour of the camp and enjoved the grizzled warriors’ he tality, and she spoke truly, for those who are here are veri e salt of the earth” in every respect v in the article labeled “veracit xcel.

They have 1 perennial youth in their hearts and hea ve the best ex God endows youth those who re- call in time of | en al mental their cou e rd mount was participated in by 2 number of the veteran warriors under Officer of the Day Hartzel of Powey, San Diego County, and comrade Duzenbury of San Jacinto, officer of the guard. The guard was i of in- alymen The implements of wa occasion were those of tactics were those of the latest approved article of Uncle Sam. The saber wielded by the brawny Comrade Duzenbury was worn (so ) i Munson ing of the Woman’s Auxiliary in the lar headquarters tent, whicl crowded b an bharmonious, enthusiastic audience of the ladies of the camp. The meeting was opened and presided over by Mrs. Ella Van Horne, the charming president of the association, all the other officers being present to assist. The first business was the report of the treasurer, who presented . ance commit damcs Hobart of V dena and Hodgson of Los Ang s appointed by the chair. At rollcall the following corps were found repre- sented: Heintzleman No. 1 of San Diego; Bartlett, Stanton and Logan of Los An- Corman of San Bernardino; Cushing Sedgwick o acinto; Riverside ot Riverside; Vicksburg of Po- mona; Dan Bidweil of Norwalk; Fort Fisher of Santa Monica; Godfrey of Pasa- dena; Major Eddy of Santa Paula, and Starr King of Santa Barbara. Present at the meeting were six army nurses of the Rebellion—Mary Darling and Anna’ Lewis of Heintzleman Corps, San Diego; Margaret Hayes; Elinore Rey- nolds and Adaline Miller of Santon | C Los Angeles, and Martha M. Ken- dall of Corman Corps of San Bernardino— women who, in the perilous days of strife, like guardian angels hovered over the bed- de of the sick and dying far away from Northern h G At 5 o'clock in the afternoon the first s parade took place. Three hundred and eighty-five men were in line, and they presented a creditable appearance. The young gallants of the National Guard would undoubtedly have marched with more precision, and the evoln- tions would have been more pre- cise and in accordance with the latest tactics, but they would have lacked the tmemories of other days—memories which bind a_nation’s heart to her living as well as dead heroes. They are called the “old voys,” and if one could hear their yelling a separated nto State groups—the | name of the State they hailed from—he | would think the appellation was well de- served. The following were the States represented and numbers present at parade, tempora nization being effected by each body aiter the parade: [owa leadi with 32, Illinois 1 with 26, New Yo 29 3 Ivania 16, Missouri 12, Michigan 10, Massachusetts 18, Indiana 14, Wisconsin 1 w Jersey 1 each, Kentucky 2, Connecticut 4, Kansas 14, and thus along the line, each Northern State being represented. To-morrow the | list of States will be given with officers, etc., after permanent organization is effected. Vice-Commander Patrick Colbert of the Soldiers’ Home was in command to-day during the ab e of Commander Dill. * | Garrison No. of the Regular Army | and Navy Union, which was instituted in | Los Angeles under the name of the brave 1ndian fighter, General George Crook, has | established headquarters here in charge of J.

WELL Allen, the San Jose Suicide, Was an In- mate of the Soldiers’ Home. SANTA MONICA, Car., Aug. 6.—George A. Allen, who committed suicide by cut- ting his throat at San Jose, last Wednes- day, as reported in dispatches to Tue CALL, had been an inmate, until recently, of the Soldiers’ Home, four miles east of this city. He drew about $350 pension money and Teceived a furlough for 500 days and went away to live with his family. The officers and men of the home speak of him in very high terms as being a frugal and sober man and addicted to no bad babits. He had been an honored member of John A. Martin Post No for more than two years, or from the time of his ad- mittance to the home. He was in the hos- pital a great deal of his time, afflicted with heart disease and softening of the brain. RED MR AT REDHOLD. Chiefs of Thirty-Two Tribes Unite in the Great Council. Publiic Reception Given in the Bril- llantly Illuminated Inaian Village. REDWOOD CITY, Can., Aug. 6.—The Great Council of Red Men organized this morning. Representatives from thirty- two out of the thirty-nine tribes of the £ were present. The committee on credentials reported a guin of twenty-five representatives. One hundred and y-five members answered the roll- eports of the great chiefs were read and referred to a committee. Several minor rendments to the constitution were made, nd the remaining time of the council was ken up in considering the proposed en- dowment plan of fraternal insurance, as outlined in the last report of Great Sachem 0. F. Seavey. The matter was finally re- ferred to a special committee, which, it is expected, will report to-morro To-night the Indian village was lighted by hundreds of lanterns. There was a band concert and public reception. whole town was brilliantly illuminated, strings of lanterns crossing the streets in many places, and being hung in a double string 100 feet high from the flag pole in front of the Courthouse. There was also a very interesting programme of vocal and instrumental music at the public school gymnasium building, and a speech of wel- to the Redmen was made by Alexan- der Gordon, Mayor of Redwood. The programme for to-morrow will in- clude a continuation of the business of the great council, a competitive rendition of the adoption ceremony, promenade con- cert and reception at the Indian village, and an illuminated bicycle parade by seventy-five members of the Redwooa City Bicycle Club. SAN' LUIS MURDER TRIAL The Alleged Slayers of Jos Villa Arraigned in Court. Important Testimony of an Expert Who Fxamined Blood-Stains on His Clothing. SAN LUIS OBISPO, Car., Aug. 6.— Frank Feliz was placed on trial to-day in the Superior Court, charged with the mur- der of Jose Ygnacio Villa. The case is stubbornly contested and promises to be- come a noted one, both sides having ex- tensive family connections in this county. On the morning of April 12 Jose Ygna- cio Villa, a wealthy rancher, was found in a yard in the rear of a questionable house, | with his skull fractured by the blows of some blunt instrument. At the inquest strong circumstantial evidence was pro- duced against Frank Feliz, Perfirio Alviso and T. Lalolu, who were immediately ar- rested and charged with the murder.” On the day following the crime bloodstains were found on overalls worn by Frank Feliz, who explained that he had been buitchering a beef. Thomas Price, a well- known expert, made an examination of the stains, and his testimony will have an important bearing on the case. A special venire of forty-one citizens was exhausted and an extra venire for twenty- five was necessary to obtain the twelve jurymen to try the case. The town is overrun with the large number of wit- nesses summoned, together with the many interested on either side. District Attorney F. A. Dorn is prose- cuting, and Graves & Graves are conduct- ing the case for the defense. D e ARIZONA ECONOMIZING. Heavy Reduction Made in the Salaries of Officials. TUCSON, Ariz., Aug. 6.—The Territo- rial Supreme Court, in upholding the validity of the county classification law passed by the last Legislature, makes a total reduction in the salaries of county officials of over $60,000 annually. The ap- proval of this Jaw by Governor Hughes caused a bitter fight gy county otficinfs to be made. ‘This, with the operation of the Territory Board of Control law, results in the reduction of public expense by over $130,000. U AFFRAY NEAR; PHOENIX. Joe Campbell, While Drunk, Shot Two Men and Himself, PH(ENIX, Ar1z., Aug. 6.—In a drunken row on Turkey Creek yesterday Ernesto Arnaz, a well-known mining man, was fa- tally shot by Joe Campbell, a groggery- keeper. Campbell, who had but one arm, after shooting Arnaz shot a miner named Payne in the leg and then shot himself through the lungs. His dfinh is only & matter of hours. ~ Campbell's wife “witnessed the affray and narrowly escaped death at her husband’s hands. Will Wed at Awbwrn.

THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Baba Ran Like a Stake Horse, Winning at Long Odds. Ali CHARLIE BOOTS WINS AGAIN. Royal Spirit Could Not Get Within Seeing Distance of Red Dick Yesterday. Bernardo bled slightly again yesterday and will be retired for some time. Little Pete, the Celestial plunger, took a good-sized bundle of coin out of the ring over the victory of Ali Baba. Shaw was in improved form yesterday. He rode the winners of the first three races and finished third on Bellringer in the last race. Sir Richard was again boosted yesterday. Entered for $400, he was bid up $300 over his selling price. It is quite evident that Jockey Hinrichs’ forte is not riding quarter-horses. On Tuesday last his attempt on Red Dick was about as good as a hodearrier's would be turning a triple somersault through a burning hoop ina 15- cent circus. . Tt is reported that this is the last week the clever lightweight jockey Joe Piggott will ride for W. O’B. Macdonough. Charles Boots, owner of the Elmwood stock farm, is said to have secured his services. H. H. Hunn, the popular gentleman jockey who has had such success East this year with the Hobart string, was a visitor at the track yesterday. Some of the Hobart horses will be seen at the track after the Sacramento meeting? _While at the post in the third race, Green- back Jr. got within reach of those vicious heels of the gray horse Sir Richard. He received & cut in one of his hind legs that will serve as a good reminder in future races. Toano, the old Eastern sprinter who has been at the track for a month or so, will proba- bly be @ starter at Saczamento. The veteran was once the means of a big coup. He was backed down from a 100 to 4 to 1 and won galloping. Charles F. Sanders, the first of the influx of Eastern horsemen that are expected here this coming winter, arrived yesterday and was an iutercsted spectator of the races. He expects his string of five horses, consisting of Merritt, Ransome, Schwitz, Jennic W and an unnamed two-year-old, to arrive on Thursday. Putting horses over the jumps takes their speed away, it is said. Such is not the case, however, with Ali Baba, for after a trial as a “lepper”’ his owner started him in a seven-furlong race yesterday and he cut up “‘monkey-shines” with such horses as Royal Flush, Charmion and Howard. Royal Flush was a 4 to 5 favorite in the betting, with Howard and Charmion each at fours, while as good as 25 to 1 was laid against Ali Baba. The bookies took very little money, though, at this figure, 10 and 12 to 1 being the odds at which most of the money was bet. The outsider was away second when the flag fell, but almost im- mediately took the lead, and galloping in front all the way like a stake horse won handily from Cbarmion in 1:27)4. The favorite finished in third place. Some of the pencilers who played gay with the ex- | jumper will be more cautious in future, for he did not run unbacked. Fear of a free ride in the patrol wagon was undoubtedly not without its effect, for there was a noticeable increase in the at- oolroom habitues returning within the folds again. Two favorites, a couple of “‘good things'’ and a second choice succeeded in pulling down purses. Royal Spirit downed Red Dick a few days back, but the Montana horse turned the Backed down from 6 to 4 to 1 he opened up his usual “‘three-blocks” gap and won easily from Addie M in 1:0114. Model finished third. Royal Spirit, a 9 to 10 favorite, finished | with the also rans. With 4 to 5 against him, the strapping youngster Charlie Boots made a show of his field in the five-furlong dash for two- year-olds, winning pulled up from Joseph- ine, a 25 to 1 chance. Cheripe, a likely looking daughter of Three E‘heers, was, a good third. The gray horse Sir Richard put another one over in the third race, a short six-fur- long spin. Startinga 1 to 2 chance, he was away badly to a straggling start, but headed the field into the stretch and won Ricardo, a 25 to 1 shot, was second, about three lengths ahead of Minnie Scott. The best race of the day, a mile dash, was a very open betting affair, Bobolink, Bellringer, Charmer, Ike L and Miss Gar- vin all receiving more or less support. The race ended in a victory for Charmer, who got away from the post nearly last. was cut off a couple of times during the running and finally won handily from Ike L in 2%, a fine run. The Wildidle mare opened in the betting at 5 to 1, although little money was taken at_that figure, 314 and 410 1 being the prevailing odds. MULHOLLAND. SUMMARY.

The Fish and €ame Commissioners Wiil Bring Suit Against the Truckee Lumber Company. The Fish and Game Commissioners were considerably annoyed last year by the Truckee Lumber Company, whieh per- sisted in dumping the refuse matter from their milils into the Truckee River, regard- less of the orders issued by the Commis- sioners. The upshot of the matter was that the Commissioners threatened the company that a suit would be instituted against it unless the dumping of delete- rious stuff into the river should cease im- mediately. The request of the Commis- sioners was complied with finally, and the river assumed its original and sparkling appearance. But again the Fish Commissioners com- plain. They sllege that about a month | or so ago the Truckee company tried to hoodwink the Commissioners by dumping the sawdust of its mills into the river un- der the cover of night. Of course this ruined the sport of the anglers, and last week Deputy Fish Commissioner Davis was dispatched to Truckee to look into the matter. He says he detected the mill employes in the act of pitching the saw- dust and shavings of the mill into the stream, and for this he placed the trans- gressors under arrest. The Commissioners say they will compel the lumber company to observe the law, and that the river must not be used as a dumping place by any of the lumber com- anies whose mulls are located on its anks. The law on this matter is very clear. Itreads: _ Every person who places or allows to pass into any of the waters of this State any lime, gas, tar, cocculus indicus, sawdust, shavings, slabs, edgings, mill or factory refuse or any substance deleterious to fish, is guilty of 8 mis- demeanor. Any person found guilty of a vio- lation of any of the provisions of this section shall be fincd in & sum not Jess than $100 or be imprisoned in the County Jeil in the county in which the conviction shall be had not less than fifty days, or be punished by both such fine imprisonmen COUNTRY CLUB'S OUTING. Sportsmen Who Will Ride in the Races and Shoot at Live Pigeons. The Pacific Union and Country clubs are making ready for their annual outing and jollification at Del Monte, which will commence on the 26th inst. The River- side, Santa Monica and San Luis Obispo ponies, and will compete with the famous Burlingame team, which will be composed | of such excellent riders as Walter Hobart, Malcolm Thomas, Joseph 8. Tobin and Richard Tobin. Walter Hobart will have a string of thirty horses in the paddock; W. O'B. Macdonough will also have a large number of bangtails on the grounds; Peter I. Donahue will be represented by five good runners, and it is said that Mr, Boots will have a little pet racer in keep- ing to stand off Hobart’s bright Phabus. Among other sportsmen who will have blooded stock at Del Monte are: Gaston M. Ashe, W. H. Howard, Major I. L. Rathbone, M. Thomas, J. B. Lincoln, A. Spreckels and others. Entries for the races will close on Saturday, August 17. Among the well-known pigeon-grassers who wifi face the traps at Del Monte are: T. R. Webster, E. Donohoe, W. H.. How- ard, R. H. Sprague, C. O. Richards, G. H. Lent, R. B. Woodward, Alexander Hamil- | ton, J. R. Carroll and Baron von Schroe- der. OLARENCE BARR'S SLAYER. C. B. Henderson, Alias Con 8. Sullivan, Held for Munder. The preliminary examination of C. B. Henderson, alias Con 8. Sullivan, the bunko man, on the charge of murdering Clarence Barr, the Chinatown guide, in the Baldwin Hotel bar on July 14, was held before Judge Low yesterday afternoon. The same witnesses who testified at the | Coroner’s inquest gave their evidence, and | 3 no new facts were brought out. Tt was shown that twice after I%nrr had slapped Henderson's face for calling him a liar he returned to the bar, and on_the second oc- casion he plunged the knife into Barr's ! abdomen without any provocation. Judge Low held f{endersan to answer before the Superior Court without bail. When Henderson was -asked as to whether he was Con Sullivan he hasalways denied it and said he would tell the name of the firm he traveled for and give other information at his preliminary examina- tion, but nothing was said, as his identity as Sullivan has been too clearly estab- lished by the police. | Ry WHEELMEN UNDER A BA. The Racing Board Questions the Status of Prominent Class A Riders. THAT CIRCUIT THE CAUSE. Racing Men Who Follow It Will Be Suspended by Chairman Welch. The racing board of the League ot Amer- ican Wheelmen has issued its bulletin 17, and it will create a stir among the class A men of the coast. For some time past Chairman Welich has been particularly active in his efforts to either make the men live up to the rules which define class A orelse join class B. Briefly stated, the class A clause provides that the rider must be an amateur who has not engaged in cycling or any other recognized sport for a cash remuneration, nor competed with a professional or class B rider; who has never exchanged, sold, bartered or in any way realized cash on a prize won by him; who has never competed for a prize valued at over $50; he must not compete beyond a radius of 200 miles from his legal residence, nor go without his own State; he must pay all his own training and trav- eling expenses. Recently a cycle racing circuit has been formed, which is to commence on August 17 and close 1 September, embracing all the cities in this vicinity where a good track or an enterprising club exists. Pet- aluma, Santa {losn, ‘Woodland, Sacra- mento, Stockton, Giiroy, Santa Cruz, San Jose and many other places were on the circujt. Besides all the well-known class B men hereabouts, a number of class A riders de- cided to follow the circuit. Then the question arose in Chairman Welch’s mind, “Who will pay their expenses? Surely they cannot afford to do this for nothing.” And, as the L. A. W. rules are very arbi- trary and permit the racing board to place in class B any man upon whom just sus- picion rests, Mr. Welch decided that if any class A rider followed the circuit it would be sufficient evidence to warrant his suspending him, and upon investigation, placing him in class B. The riders who weuld be most affected by this ruling are: F. M. Byrne, C. W. Conger, J. E. Edwards, P. G. Alexander, D. E. Whitman, F. A. McFarland, E. A. Moody, O. B. Smi%, . J. Sherman, R. E. Dow, C. M. Smith, P. R. Mott, G. Hardenbrook and V, A. Benson. It is stated on good authority thatJ. E. Edwards intends to go into class B anyway. Sherman will not ride, and Hardenbrook and Benson probably will not either. If any of the others wish to follow, they must swear to a statement before a notary, which contains the following interroga- tories: Have you received, or are yow promised, or are you to receive, or are you receiving, any remunermtion, compensation, expense money or merchandise for riding any make of cycle from the makers thereof or their agents, or any person for them, or the makers or manufact- " s . g U liances for bicyeles of an; polo clubs will be in attendance with their e O I it s ; 5 kind, or their agents, or any person for them, or any other person or persons, directly or in- directly? Or is any one receiving or to receive for you or on account of your riding any such expense or remuneration? State who pays your expenses, including entry fees. Are you allowed expenses from any club, manufacturer or any one interested in cycling? If you pay your expenses yourself from whom or from what do you derive the income neces- sary 1o pay such expenses? Do you solemnly swear that you are an amateur of class A, according of elass A of the L. A. W. rules? There afe few of the above-named class A men who can swear to such an affidavit. Probably Alexander is the only one; and some of them frankly admit that they can- not. Under these circumstances they can- not foliow the eircuit, and if they do they will be suspended and eventually have to ride in class B. The penalty is severe in this way: There are already many fast men in class B, and these class A" men would have much less chance of winning Krizes, while in class A they are at the ead, and are always sure of something. As the racing board says they cannot fol- low the circuit, it means the downfall of | that project, as without these men the class A races will be slow and uninter- esting.

McFarland, San | the present board is prepared to discharge this duty in its fullest senle.p For the rider who de- sires to adhere to the strictest canons of ama- teur sport there is provided class A. For the one who is unwilling or unable to meet the ex- penses of racing, or desires to receive com- pensation therefor in the form of a salary or | otherwise, there is provided class B, in which the only restrictions are that the prize must not be a money or devisable one, and must not be sold. Whoever considers these restrictions burdensome may find perfect freedom among the professionals, to whom in their relations with each other and with race promoters the board will extend its protection. The greatest abuses of the league’s rules and the board’s eonfidence are committed by those men who obtain from rece-promoters or the trade expenses and other concessions, and yet seek to remain in class A. When men travel from town to town, hundreds of miles from their homes, in attendance on race meetings, under the care and direction of representatives of the trade, there can be but one inference. Such men enjoy advantages which it was never contemplated the cless A men should have, and their presence in that class is an injustice 10 those who are yet amateurs and are strug- gling to develop themselves with their own re- sources. When the class A man develops such ability as to command the attention of race- promoters or the trade, and is apparently re- ceiving assistance from those sources, his place is in class B, and there he will be transferred Dby the board under the general provisions, which authorize it to act on circumstantial evidence. The provision permitting & class A rider to compete at any distance from his home within the gound;fle! of his State was framed without reference to the extentof California. In future class A riders in_California competing outside of alimit of 200 miles from legal residence, axce%teby special permit of the racing board, will considered proper subjects for class B legislation. . M. WELCH, Representative National Racing Board. San Francisco, August 5, 1895. A Cary reporter called on Chairman Welch of the racing board yesterday, and he had much to say regarding the new bulletin he had issued and its effect on racing men. Mr. Welch is a pleasant man to talk to,and is very familiar with the league rules and cfwl'cle racing, having been connected with the League of American ‘Wheelmen on this coast since its organiza- tion in 1886, He said: So much of the bulletin as relates to the atti- tude of the board toward class A men has been submitted to Chairman Gideon, and is issued with his approval. There areabout a dozen sus- pects who have been called upon to explain Some have made explanations that are s#tis- factory, others have availed themselves of the privih‘?e of making & two will accept the si . g0 into class B. With those who remain in class A, I shall take the position that in future they, must act consistently. A sworn state- men’ simply closes a pending investigation, it provides no immunity for the future. Circuit chasing is no part of the role of a class A man. The place for a class A man is at home, to com- te when the circult reaches his town or comes within a reasonable distance, say a da, journey of it, There are of course excep tions—men with whose circumstances I am familiar and whose reasons for following the ecircuit I understand. It must not be under- stood that I am unfriendly to the proposed Pacific Circuit. On the contrary I am willing and anxious to aid it in every possible way, and I consider that the pesition I am taking with the A men will benetit it. The towns are full of A men. The presence of the A stars would simply discourage the local men. They d not ride, or speciel closed races would have to be provided for them. In the absence of visiting A men the local men will come out in force and impart a strong local color to the meetings, and i? the B ranks are re-enforced by some of the present A stars the resuit will be still more satisfactory. It is an_established fact that the National Circuit will come to California. The dates given in to-day's bulletin form a mere skeleton. The choicest dates have, of course, been secured by the first applicants. Other dates wiil undoubtedly be lov owed. The eir- cuit eloses in Northern California at Santa Rosa November 16, and then goes on to South- ern California. In addition to the towns in that part of the State already scheduled Pasadena will undoubtedly take a date, and so will other places. After the circuit closes most of the men will remain in California to w: T, end there will be some great racing during the winter and early spring. There is a great boem ahead for cycle racing in California. Byrne, Edwards, Whitman, McFariand, Moody, Dow, Mott and C. M. Smith had wntended to follow the circuit. If they can show to the satisfaction of the Racing Board that while doing so they will pay all their own expenses of every kind and indicate from what source they receive the money, and the board is convinced tbat they receive no remuneration for riding a certain make of wheel or tires and that_no club is backing them, they may go. But if the board has the slightest intimation otherwise they will be at once suspended. It looks as if the circuit had received its deathblow. The racing board intends to enforce its rules to the letter. veral class B men of note are to be investigated next, and Oscar Osen, practically the only professional on this coast, may soon have some company he will be proud of. Every racing-man who has violated a rule is covering up his tracks and hopes he will escape investigation. It is the class A men the board is after now, and the class B men will have their turn next. 0LD Y. M. 0. A. BUILDING. Now Offered for Sale—Auction by Easton . & Eldridge. The property owned and formerly occu- pied by the San Francisco Young Men’s Christian Association, on Sutter street, between Kearny street and Grant avenue, is now offered for sale. It is a valuable property. The building is a very substan- tial one, and the foundations are suffi- ciently strong to carry two or three more stories. With but small expenditure the building could be changed 1nto a splendid rentable income property. The associa- tion, having moved into its new quarters, Mason and Ellis streets, bas no further use for the old building and has placed it on the market for sale. It is being handled by H.J. McCoy, general secretary of the association. The auction held by Easton, Eldridge & Co. yesterday was a pronounced success. The bidding was spirited from start to finish, with the result that everything was sold, though some prices are subject to confirmation by the Probate Court. LAXAT E--HERBS!

And, perhaps, it has never been more ¢learly shown than compara- tively recently, when the case of a gentleman from Indian Diggings was brought to the notice of the specialists practicing there. The name of the gentleman to whom we refer was Adam Nelson, and perhaps the story is best told in his own words. He writes as follows from his home under date of March 25 last: ‘Hudson Medica] Institute—Gentiemen: After suffering for a length of time from what I thought was an incurable disease, I wastineily persuaded to try the Hudson Medical Institu'e, of which I had heard so much, and it was almost against wy own judgment that I wrote Fou the letter that I did. Now, after several months’ treatment, it 1s with a great deal of gratitude that I write you these few lines v:( fhanks. My case was stubborn and compli- cated, but under your conscientious treatment 1 have gradually improved until now I can safely say that 1 have been entirely enred. [ sincerely trust, gentlemen, that to all those who are suffering as I have suffered you will cite my ease, or, better still, let them write to me and 1 will tell them what you haye accom- plished. Yours very truly. ADAM NELSO Indian Diggings, March 25, 1 3 It would not be at all difficult to go into the painful details of this quite severe case, but it is not necessary. It is easily seen from Mr. Nelson's straightforward letter that it was a most difficult and dangerous one, nevertheless the great specialists had no trouble in effecting a great and grand cure. Thousandsupon thou- sands indorse Mr. Nelson in his opinion of their wonderful skill, for instanc Mr. F. Clyde of Victoria, B.

Neale of Los Angele “Your treat- ment has done all that you claimed, and I bless the day that I placed myself in your hands.” F. F. Bartels of Oroville writes: *I am alto- gether a new man to what I was when I com- menced taking your medicines.” W. A. Russell of Machias, Wash.: “Iregret that I am notable to pay you ten times your fee. Ishall most certainly recommend you to all sufferers.” W. P. Dillman of Sacramento says: “Ithank ou'a thousand t for the great good you have done me. May God b g2t Thousands of others hav ied in similar strains.
