One moment of amazed silence. Then he struck her. As she lay at his feet she heard him say to the man-servant. “Find Goro, the nakodo. Let him re- turn her to her father. Take all the pres- ents she brought.” She was divorced. T She faced him TRy Her purification began at the great tem- ple Asakusa. I cannot stop to tell what it cost. Butat the end the Bonxes assured her that she was again as avirgin. So she meant always to remain. TR CE et e ey L g T g Ji-Saburo had disappeared at Ping-yang. He was with the first army corps that led the attack on the front. He had planted the flag of his regiment upon the first rampart in the very face of the enemy. The world knows the fury of the Chinese to dislodge that emblem of alien author: Oshima’s troops were forced sullenly bac | Ji-Saburo alone remained by tne flag he had planted. Then Oshima himself took his place beneath it. “‘Soldier, we will die here alome rather than retreat,” he said. But Nagaoka also sprang to the side of his commander. With a savage shout his retreating regiment fol- lowed him. Again the rampart was won. And again the Chinese swarmed upon the flagand its handful of defenders. Nothing could live in that hell of metal and flame. Savagery, that had not yet learned defeat, raved here as in primeval carnage. The flaz went down—lost in the heaps of slain. And Ji-Saburo went down with it. PR s s e Ty AR That his old mother might erect a little tablet at the shrine if he were dead—to find him if alive—was the task that Glory un- dertook. Everybody helped her. But it was long, and she became a nurse. Soon there was not a field hospital where the wan face of the “‘Spirit Nurse,’” as the sol- diers affectionately called her, was not known. If the soldier had his eyes closed by her hands he died with a better hope of Nirvana. E And one day the great commander him- self came to see her and thank her. She told him quite simply all her little story. And he, looking into her worn face, told | her, with a generous untruth, that Ji-Sa- buro had been made a colonel, had gone home to marry her, had not found her there. He would be with her in six days now. She must rest a great deal—sleep— and Ji-Saburo would come. A courier left for the front within an our. He carried to Ji-Saburo this mes- sage: “Your general commands you to appear | here within six days. He awaits you. Fail not.” And Glory did as she was commanded. But her resting was the subsiding of the spirit. She smiled happily on the prepa- rations they made for her wedding. It was a stately military function. This was the general’s command. She was in the service, he said. And Ji-Saburo also obeyed like a soldier. Insix days he was at her bedside. She was dead. The peace on her wan face had come, they told him, with her last word, | which had been his name. Jorx L. Loxg, in Moods. By Feliz Regamy. From au Quartier Latin.

On the battlefield were found many bodies of Japakese nurses, utilated and crucified.” WHAT THE STATE YIELDS. A Banquet That Will Have on the Menu & Hundred Products of California Only. Everything is progressing to make the California banquet on the 16th a success. There will be 100 small tables served by 100 waiters, and the menu cards will con- tain a list of 100 things produced in Cali- fornia. The latest addition to the bill of fare is some bear’s meat, now on its way from Nevada City, near which place the bear was shot. The banquet, which is to be given at the California Hotel, will begin at & o'clock, with music and speeches. At 10 o'clock the banquet-room will be thrown open for the general feast. The preliminary musical programme will be under the managementof Miss Marie Withrow. General W. H. L. Barnes will be toast- master and Horace Platt will assist him. Among those who will speak are Senator Perkins, Samuel M. Shortridge, James Phelan, Congressman Maguire, W. H. Holcomb and William H. Bunker. The decorations will be composed almost entirely of the fruit and flowers of Califor- nia. Great. branches of fruit trees and of grapevines, with bunches of grapes, will form a conspicuous feature of the dispiay. Bome of the professors at the State Ini- specimens to be used in the decorations. And the dry-goods houses of this City have given many yards of yellow and white ribbons, to be used for the same pur- pose. To-day several of the most important streetcar lines will‘fivp{)ear with free notices of the banquet. ells, Fargo & Co. have offered to giye free expressage on all things sent to the banquet. It is not the purpose of the California banquet in any way to depreciate the prod- ucts of other States. The idea is simply to emphasize the extent and excellence of the home products. The following reception committee will act during Wednesday evening: Mrs. Wal- ter Taylor, Mrs. Robert Mackenzie, Mrs. A. L. Bancroft, Mrs. P. L. Weaver, Mrs. Thomas Cole, Mrs. Horace Hill, Mrs. W.

AN IMPOSING STRUCTURE. Exterior Work WIll Be Fully Com= pleted by the First of January. Eight of the twenty-four great steel ribs that will form the framework of the dome proper, or roof, on the great tower dome of the City Hall are in place. Between these eight main ribs, which rest upon the eight great steel columns, there will be sixteen secondary ribs, and, surmounting these, there will be constructed an im- mense steel collar. This collar will form the neck of the copper ball on which the white metal angel will stand, extending its imposing figure toward the sky twenty feet beyond the 315 feet which will meas- ure the height of the grand tower. The framework of the dome and ball will be gard to the rupture between the Los Anieleu Preabyte!;y and the First Church of that city. Z The Occident of Thursday contains an article on «The Christian Character of Mills Seminary and College.”” *Con- nected with this institution,” it states, “'is a thoroughly organized church, with officers elected annually. As teachers and students represent different denomina tions, it was deemed better that the church should be & union in character. This organization was effected eighteen years ago by the Presbyterians and Congrega- tic;mhsts. " the ted o resident Henry S. Tanner, the head of the Church of J :syus Christ of Latter Day Saints, will leave on Wednesday for South- ern California. He will hold a conference at Los Angeles on Sunday, and intends to organize & branch of the work at San Bernardino, and probably at other towns, during his stay of one month. Elder Shepherd, who is at the head of the Sacra- mento mission, will have charge of the work in this City during President Tan- ner’s absence. & Professor Yoster will fill the pulpit of the First Congregational Church and Pro- fessor Lloyd that of Plymouth Congrega- tional Church at both services to-day. The Van Ness Fraternity, a social or- ganization of the younger members of the Second Unitarian Church, gave a success- ful entertainment on Friday evening. The assistant pastor of the First Uni- tarian Church, Rey. William G. Elliot, will address the congregation at the Sec- ond Unitarian Church this_morning, and Rev. Mr. Haskell of the San Jose Unitarian Church will deliver the evening discourse.

The angel will | be sent from the workshop on Jessie street | to the City Hall in sections and there put | together, to see that all the jointsand con- | nections are perfect. Then one section at a time, beginning with the pedestal, will | be hoisted up on the working elevator to its place. The appearance of the structure will then be that of a finished tower with a leaky roof. But the work of laying the tiling in the steel framework of the dome and ball and the building of the oval win- dows overlooking the gallery of the attic will proceed with perceptible speed, so that by next New Year’s day the magnifi cent tower dome will stand complete as to | its exterior, one of the handsomest and most imposing pieces of architecture in the land. As it stands to-day, shed to the base of the dome—the first order of columns Ionic, the second Corinthian, with the attic above—the spectator does not comprehend the full magniticence of the whole because of the unfinished con- | dition of the dome. But it is none the less magnificent in fact and worthy of more than the casual glance given it by the thousands of people who pass along Market street, impressed with the idea ihat until the tower dome shall be finished it will remain undeserving of a careful view. Away up there in the top floor of the attic story, just completed, will be located the fire signal station, nearly 300 feet above the level of the City Hall floor, but beyond that the curious may go when the structure shall be finished, for on top of the dome, extending around the collar of the great ball, there will be a gallery, from whose floor one may see over the City and many miles away, provided the fog is not upon the land. The plans for the interior finishing of the structure are not yet completed, but will be ready for the contractors by the {ime the exterior has been completed. The gen- eral plan, however, contempiates an ele- vator through the center from the ground floor to the feet of the angel, and several stories of rooms whose windows are ready to give light and air to the occupants.

MUNYON'S Witnesses Give Their Tes- timony as to the Won- derful Curative Power of His Remedies. The Excitement Created by His Wonderful Cures Increas- ing. Hundreds Who Two Weeks Ago Had Given Up Hope Praise and Laud the Name of Munyon, the Modern Bene- factor. READ WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT IT. Two weeks ago Munyon’s Remedies were un- known in San Francisco. To-day they are a household word, and Professor Munyon and his wonderful cures are discussed and warmly praised wherever you go. In the stores, on the ears and on the streets you can always hear some one relating the remarkable cure effected either upon himself or some friend. The old- fashioned business—$2 for advice and 50 cents Ior prescription—is becoming a memory of the past. The public now know that 25 cents in- vested in a Munyon Remedy relieves them at once and cures them in a short time. Hereto- fore it has taken five or six days to recover from the effect of poisonous, nauseating and drastic drugs, even after the disease was cured. Is it any wonder that 50,000 intelligent peo- ple in this City have become converts to this new school of medicine, and hundreds are be- ing added to this number daily? To those who persist in the old style of doe- toring we have this to say—2987 persons have been cured by Munyon’s Remedies in two weeks. The whole medical profession in San Francisco has not accomplished one-half of this in the past three months. What better proof can you ask of the marked superiority of Munyon's new method of treating disease over the 0ld? We publish & few of the many testimonials obtained since the free distribu- tion closed. Experience of a Druggist. DR. JAMES M. MuNYoN—Dear Sir: For sev- eral years past I have been afflicted with rheumatism in the muscles of the arms and legs to such an extent that at times I was un- able to enjoy the free use of my limbs. Hap- pily, the pains were only occasional, but the dread of their unexpected coming prompted me to attempt the eradication of the disease from my system. Being & pharmacist, I had recourse fo many of the most popular reme dies prescribed by physicians and recognized as standard among medical men, but the re- sult was entirely unsatisfactory. About two weeks ago my attention was called to your cure through & customer, who inquired for a bottle of your pellets. ‘After ordering them from the wholesale house I decided to take few doses myself in order to test their effi- ciency. Before I had consumed one bottle I realized that the lingering vains had leit my arms and scattered themselves throughout my system,so that they became barely per- ceptible. I have continued the treatment, and am satisfied that rheumatism in future will be among the least of my ills. The sale of your remedy is afo an evidence of what it is accomplishing in this city. From a few bottles, soon_aiter your free distribution. my sales alone have increased _threefold, ard I have decided to keep in stock a full line of all your cures in order to meetthe demands of my customers. The majority of those who have tested the merits of the rheumatic pel- lets inform me that they have boen greatly benefited. FRANK PATTERSON, Proprietor of Le Fevre's Old Pharmacy, southwestcorner of Kearny and Pine streets. Benefited Beyond Relief. PROFESSOR J. M. MUNYON—Dear Sir: Having theumatism pretty badly for several months past, & lady friend of mine handed me a bottle of the cure, which was advertised in the news- papers. 1 used some of the little pills, mostly ecause they looked so harmless and because [ reasoned that they could do no injury,even if they did not take away the pains in my back and shoulders. After five or six doses 1 was really surprised to find that I felt much easier, and did not suffer so much when I tried to perform my nuusekcorinz duties. My son was so delighted that he kept pretty close watch on me and made me teke ihe medicine regularly, as_was printed on the wrapper. AfterIhad used the sample bottle he bought another, and I improved o much I did not think I would have to finish all the pills. In fact,1 feel as though I had never suffered from rheumatism in all my life. The rest of the bottle I sent to my sister in Alviso, who has also had a great deal of suffering from rheumatic painsin her feet and ankles. She says that the cure is also doing her a great deal of good. I em very glad that my lady friend made me a present of the little sampio bottle, which she got at the Chronicle office only out of curiosity. > MRS.

Writing & testimonial is an entirely strange.task for me, but I deem it proper to allow you to use my name. more especially as the relief I received did not result directly in any financial benefit to you. Itall came about through one of the small sample bottles which you or your agent distributed several days ago. Idid not find it necessary to urchase & botile, although I trust my riends will profit by my experience, and seek relief by the use of your cure. Briefly, I will state that for upward of cight years I have suffered untold tortures from ‘inflammatory rheumatism. have visited mineral springs, and taken medieine by the gallon, I might say without exaggera- tion, but the old trouble remained and relief came only at intervals. At times I have sui- fered so greatly that I was obliged to walk the floor by night, and groan in silent agony dur- ing thé day. After taking several doses of your cure, according to direction, the pain was greatly lessened, and since then I have slept as peacefully as a child. I trust the cure may be of a permauent nature. J. B. TURNER, Manufacturer of boot and shoe uppers, 3 Hardy place, between Sutter and Bush streets. Another Grateful Woman. Dr. JAMES M. MUNYON—Sir: A representative of the Chronicle called on me to ask if I had used the bottle of your rheumatie cure, and, if 80, whether or not “it had benefited me in any way. I could only answer in one way, and can see no. objection to adding my testimony to that of so many whose names you have used from time to time. I did use your remedy, or at least a portion of the trial bottle which my husband obtained, and the benefit I received cannot be expressed by me in words. Those who have known me for years in this city and Los Angeles can’ fully appre- ciate what your remedy has done for me in so short a 8 of time.

When T asked for a bottle of it, at my drug- gist’s, he had none of it in stock. but soon aster getting a small supply and when 1 went after another bottle he informed me that the sale was simply surprising. "Of course, this en- couraged me to continue its use, and to-day I am_entirely free from the rheumatic pains which made my life a burden for many years. Iam not only free from pain,but I can also state truthfully that my general health is much improved by the treatment. lts action on the kidneys, in my case, was extremely gratifying, especially asI had suffered to sucl an extent from this cause in addition to rheu- matism, From actual experience I can state that your homeopathic pellets are wonder- workers in conquering rheumatism.

D.—Dear Sir: Soon after going on the road in various capacities several years ago I contracted muscular rheu- matism and suffered greatly from it at various times. I doctored, of course, and found relief, but no cure. While inLos Angeles I read of your cure, and purchased a small bottle. Al- though I have taken it but a short time I feel that it is doing me good. At least I have not been trouoled since taking the first dose of four pellets. If the use of my name will assist you in convincing others, you are at liberty to add it to the list, providing, of course, you do not picture me as heretofore & hopeless cripple, which I do not anticipate you will. .

The child is greatly improved, and the pains no longer give her any trouble. MRZ. E. PACHECO0, 1031 Jackson street. Feels Like a New Man, DR, JAMES M.
