THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1895. FIRE POURING FORTH. THE OLYMPIC Vorcano Is Now IN CEASELESS ERUPTION. SEEN SIXTY MILES AWAY AT PORT TOWNSEND THOUSANDS ‘WITNESS Tt THE Pt N-CLIMBERS SCENE OF EANCE. PORT TOWNSEND, Wasg., Oct. 21.— Interest in the recently discovered volcano in the Ol Mountains, a short dis- Saaos Trom ntinues without abate- ment, t night thousands of people sof the phenomenon witnesse 2 from s about the city. Early evening four ater very dim, but from 8 o’clo laylight the lurid jet could be seer with the naked eye spurting hig 1e air and throwing a beautiful glow into the clouds. To-day, owing to the thick smoke, the crater is not visible fr e. The few who were skeptical when the ight into town are now nced, and to-morrow ght a large party of bers will leave for the led by Messrs. Pettygrove and who were three miles away first eruption occurred. According to the statements of these men the volcano began to spout flames and lava Saturday night while they were camped three miles distant from the scene. ‘The two were peacefully slumbering when they were awakened by a loud report and sle shaking of the earth, followed by k of fire, which was sent high into the air and was accompanied by a hissing, izzling sound. The disturbance stopped addenly as it began, and all was still y twenty minutes. Then it was re- peated, and since then the eruptions have been regular. On the night of its first appearance Pet- tvgrove and Chappell remained in slent wonder until the extreme heat and thick sulphur smoke compelled them to make a retreat to a point several miles farther away from the crater, and the next morn- ing they made all te to town, arriving late Saturday night. The scene of the urbance is sixty miles from here, in the third chain of the Olympic Mountains. People here believe the outpouring is a natural sequence of the recent earthquake shocks which have been felt in this vicinity for some weeks. The result of the investigating party's tour will be awaited with interest. Last night the pyrotechnic spectacle was watched through powerful glasses by a party of amateur scientists, who compute that the injections of the molten mass into the air occur at intervals of from three to five seconds, and from this distance it would appear that a steady stream of fire was beine sent into the sky. Toward mid- night it became apparent that the fire from the crater was igniting the forests in the valleys far below the snow line, as smoke in great volume was noticeable. - Of course it is impossible as yet to determine the cause of the disturbance, but farmers from the vicinity coming to town to-day aver that the top of the mountain is redhot and that lava flakes are settling over the straits, making navigation thereof particularly dangerous. news was when t PALOMARES WATER SUIT, THE POMONA LAND AND WATER COMPANY ACCUSED OF FRAUD. LAND-OWNERS WHo CrLaiM THEY HAVE BEEN MULCTED BY THE OLD ORGANIZATION. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 21.—Some time ago certain of the stockholders of the Pomona Land and Water Company organ- ized the Palomares Irrigation Company, and the latter company issued to those individuals 6000 shares of stock. These gentlemen sold a quantity of land under the Palomares ditches, and issued 100 shares of water stock with each ten acres of land, so that very much of those 6000 shares originally issued came to be held by land-owners. These land-owners did not, however, have representation among the officers of the Palomares company, which continued to be officered by the people of the Pomona company. Recently there was a meeting of the offi- cersof the Palomares company, and they adopted a resolution whereby it was set forth that a certain deed made by the Po- mona company to the Palomares com- pany, conveying to the latter water-bear- ing lands, did not express the real inten- tion of the parties: that it was intended that at any time after the passing of the deed the Pomona company might go upon the Jands granted and develop water and sell it to Palomares company for 100 shares of thelatter company’s stock for each inch of water. This resolution was ratitied; but the land-holding owners of the Palomares stock took no hand in it, nor knew nothing aboutit. It is also alleged that the Po- mona company has _surreptitiously di- verted water off the Palomares 1and and sold it to the Pomona City Water Com- pany. Suit was brought this morning by the Palomares Company, alleging fraud in strong terms against the two other com- panies and asking to have the resolution set aside and the deeds thereunder va- cated. T REWARD FOR A MURDERER. Strenwous Efforts to Locate the Slayer of Cyclist Newton. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. —Elmer Newton, a young bicyclist, was killed in Pasadena in February last in a fight with Andrew Parks and Will and Ray Fitz- patrick, the latter being a boy of 13 years and all being wheelmen. Parks disap- W.red and his whereabouts is not known. 1l Fitzpatrick was acquitted by a jury. A reward of $300 has been offered by the State and $50 by the family of Newton for the apprebension of Parks. District Attorney Donnell this morning received from E. C. Hainer, chairman of the Republican State Central Committee 9, closing a letter of H. E. Newton of Aurora, Nebr., who is a brother of the deceased, increasing the reward offered by the family to $250. Parks appears to have left the country entirely, as not a shadow or a trace of him has ever been found. —_—— UTICA MINE’S LOSS. Superintendent Tom Lane Has Tendered His Resignation. ANGELS CAMP, CaL., Oct. 21.—Tom T. Lane has tendered his resignation as super- intendent of the Utica mine. He proposes to devote his attention to the development p( a mine near Jenny Lind in which he Is interested. The extent of the ore body in the Jenny Lind mine is incalculable. The sulphuret is of a rebellious character, but a large quantity of it was successfully worked two weeks ago and proved very rich. The rock can be extracted througi. tunnels and drifts without sinking, as there is practi- cally a solid mountain of it. It is pre- dicted that this property will exceed in vroduction the ‘great Utica mine. A sixty-stamp mill will be erected imme- diately. Superintendent Lane’s resignation has not been accepted, but it 1s generaily un- derstood he will insist upon it unless ar- rangements are made so that he can devote a portion of his time to his own interests. If a successor to him should be appointed the responsibility will probably fall on Wilham gfiller. for years under- ground foreman. o MISS ASHLEY'S CLAIMS. Health Office Records to Figure in her Suit 4gainstLucky” Baldwin. LOS ANGELES, CaL.. Oct. 21.—A sensa- tion is likely to be sprung soon in the suit brought against *'Lucky” Baldwin by Miss Lilllan Ashley of Pasadena. The young woman sues for damages for Baldwin’s failure to provide for her child, which she claims is the daughter of the noted capi- talist and turfman. Dr. Trueworthy, the attending physician at the time of tbe birth, was looked for to-day. His office bas been abandoned, and it was learned that he was in Europe. Miss Ashley called upon the Health Office in the City Hall to-day for a birth certificate. Clerx Earle soon found it, and it bore the following interesting data: Born—At 129 South Olive street, Los An- geles, Decem & girl. Mother, Lil- lian A. Ashley J. Baldwin. Dr.J. W. Trueworth! Miss Ashley wanted the birth certificate to use at her trial in San Francisco. e U AFTER CHIEF GLASS. Clash Between the Ofiicer and the Minis- terial Union. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 21.—The Min- isterial Union of the city is after Chief of Police Glass again. At its meeting to-day it replied in forcible language to his accu- sation that the agitation of the social evil question by the ministers had caused more damage than the evil itself. The ministers formed the sharp-worded epistle into the form of a communication for presentation to the City Council, stat- ing in substance that if the Chief had dis- charged his duties and enforced the laws the agitation would have been stopped long ago. Chief Glase’ speech was charac- ized as discourteous and lacking moral courage, untrue in the extreme and show- ing official sympathy for the criminal and disorderly elements, and also insubordina- tion. The union petitioned the Council that the Chief be required to do his duty or resign to some one who will enforce the laws of the city. Lt A MAY BE INVESTIGATED, An Official Suspected of “ Jobbing? the Zos Angeles Papers. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 21.—The Su- preme Court has decided that the $17,000,- 000 bond issue of the Market-street cable road of San Francisco was legal. The opinion was filed Saturday morning. The information that the filing had been made was withheld in the Clerk’s office from both the evening vapers here. Then the decision was sent north—the only copy that had been made of it. The representatives of both the morning apers ciaim that they received their in- ormation that the decision was to the effect that the bonds were invalid from Deputy Clerk Butterworth. He in turn denies that he gave that information. The failure to give the news of the decision to the evening papers and then have it incor- rectly stated in the morning papers savors ofa job. The matter may be the subject of court investigation e LATTER-DAY SAINTS. A Branch Church to Be Established in ZLos Angeles. L0S ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 21. — Elder Henry 8. Tanner is the president of the California Mission of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. and has been engaged in establishing a Mormon church in this city. A branch has been estab- lished in San Francisco and one in Sacra- mento. A conference of San Diego, Los Angeles and San Bernardino counties was held yes- terday afternoon at 245 South Main street. Parley T. Wright and M. H. Thomas were appointed president and clerk respectively, and H. C. Jacobson and R. Berg will fill the same resvective offices in the Los An- geles church. S S Charged With Embezzlement. LOS ANGELES, CaL., Oct. 2i.—The Grand Jury to-day returned an indictment to Judge Smith’s court charging Frank Lowry, ex-chief clerk of the County Clerk’s office, with the embezzlement of $1000, and bail was fixed at §2000. The money misap- propriated is supposed to have been taken some time during the last year that Lowrri acted as clerk. _— POWER FOR VISALIA. Water to Be Brought to the Kaweah Electric Plant Through a Large Tunnel. VISALIA, Car., Oct. 21.—George Hanna and W. A. Burr have returned from a visit to San Francisco on business connected with the Kaweah Electric Light and Power Company. They made purchases of tools and machinery required in excavating, blasting and drilling. The machinery 18 already on the way and is expected to ar- rive by the last of the week. When it gets here it will be taken to the vicinity of Lemon Cove, where work on the water- of Nebraska, a letter urging that all be done in the matter that is possible and in- way from the Kaweah River to the pro- posed electric plant will at once commence. The company will use steam drills in running the 400-foot tunnel through the hill at the lower end of the ditch, just northeast of the Ohio Lemon Company’s orchard. Movable engines will be used "to operate the steam drills at both ends of the tunnel. The company expects to have the work of excavating well under way by next week. e A Moteor Falls Near HModesto. MODESTO. CaL., Oct. 21.—A rock un- doubtedly of meteoric origin has been found on the bank of Dry Creek, east of this place. It is oval-shaped and larger than the rim of an ordinarily sized man's bat. It is apparent that the rock was1in a molten state when it struck the ground, for it is flattened. It is of a dark, bluish color, and contains burned gravel and earth. It was found by the steward of the County Hospital, C. H. Armistead, and iy now on exhibition at the hospi 1.

NEW CAMPAIGN PAPER. LAWTON, THE DEMOCRATIC CAN- DIDATE, TALKING THROUGH HIis OWN ORGAN. CAVANAUGH AT THE FRONT. Says HE Is Out oF PoLITIcs, BUT DecLARES PoLiTIicAL BOSSES ARE No Goop. SACRAMENTO, Car., Oct. 20.—W. D. Lawton, the Democratic candidate for Mayor, unable to obtain favorable men- tion in the columns of the daily local press, has come to the front with a paper of his own called New Sacramento, in which he presents his views as to the ual popularity and the strength of thel principles they represent. Ata meeting of the Board of Trustees to-day, called for the purpose of ratifying the election officers appointed from the different wards, there were indications that an effort would be made to appoint men who would, without scruples, attend to the interests of the candidates of their particular choice. The Populists, Citizens and the Ameri- can Protective Association declare that the time has come in the history of Sacra- mento politics when no fraudulent trans- actions will be allowed at the poils, and they purpose seeing that everything is conducted in a legitimate manner. What the outcome will be if any “raw” work is attempted at the polls by the judges it is impossible to foretell, but from the talk of citizens who claim to be op- posed to all bosses and unscrupulous methods, it is probable that if matters are not conducted as they should be there will be serious trouble. PASADENA'S SENSATION. An Attempt Made to Impeach City At- torney Arthur. PASADENA, CaL., Oct.21.—An attempt by the enforcement commiittee, represented in this case by Rev. Herbert W. Lathe of the Congregational, Rev. Clark Crawford of the Methodist and Rev. Elliott Ward of the Christian Chureh, to impeach City At- torney W. E. Arthur before the Common Council at its meeting this afternoon caused a furor of excitement and ended in a failure. This move was the outgrowth of the | crusade that has been waged by the com- | mittee against the sale of liquor. Detec- tives have been employed in the securing BART OAVANAGH, WHO HAS GOT RICH DOING POLITICS IN SACRAMENTO, (From a photograph taken for “The Call.”} duties of the incumbent of the Mayor’s office. The Bee has declared for Steinman and the Record-Union for Wilson, and the war goes merrily on. On the part of the Republican leaders it is claimed that the First Ward will un- doubtedly give Wilson a majority, as will also the Second. The Third is also counted for Wilson, because within its boundaries Second Ward, which has been Wilson’s stronghold in former political battles. The Fourth Ward is conceded to Steinman by a small plurality, although Bart Cava- naugh, who has always claimed to control this ward, declares that his sympathies are with Wilson. Cavanaugh says that although personally he has resigned all interest in politics and grower in the wilds of th: district, still, if necessary on his armor and in a week carry every- thing his way. The uptown wards are doubtful. “1 am out of politics’” Cavanaugh re- iterated this evening. ‘‘This political boss business is no good; yet I am anxious that the entire Republican ticket shall win and can see no reason why it should be defeated.” Cavanaugh, although a young man, has been identified with Sacramento politics for nearly seventeen years, and in the be- ginning drilled under the leadership of ‘*Little Napoleon” Frank Rhoads in the First ward. His first break with this fac- tion was during the Dray and Young con- test for State Senator, in which he claims to have achieved a victory. It is also claimed that at the time of t1 contest there must have been a good-sized sack in sight, as it is a well-known fact that no local politician was ever better fitted to capture and place to the greatest advantage any money to be expended in either city or county elections. He has ac- quired a fortune by his activities in poli- tics. In the wards which he represents he is fully conversant with every voter whose action may be influenced one way or an- other. He controlsall gambling privileges in Sacramento outside of the main faro game, on the cornerof Third and K streets, which has always been recognized as the inalienable prerogative of Rhoads. merican River Cavanaugh is a pleasant, genial appear- ing man and dresses well. Heis generally popular not only with the class with whom he associates, but with the farming element throughout the country, himself being an extensive hop-grower; but more than all be understands how politics may be con- ducted, and when it comes to oreanizing his forces he has displayed an ability so great that the railroad company, which is always out to win and makes few mistakes in choosing lieutenants, has been com- pelled to recognize him as the strongest man to forward its interest in a financial way. Rhoads and Daroux may be seen loiter- ing about the strongholds of downtown political circles. Bart Cavanaugh fre- quents the corridors of the State Capitol, especially when the Legislature is in ses- sion. Now that but two weeks intervene before election the evidences of the battle grow stronger. The Steinman faction and the blc{xers of Wilson will use every effort to achieve success for their respective candi- dates, while Lawton and Hubbard, not bayiug the backine of any prominent poli- ticians, must depend upon their individ- 1s incorporated a large portion of the old | has become a peaceful rancher and hop | , he could buckle | | of evidence, and several cases prosecuted | by City Attorney Arthur have resulted in | convictions.

PORTLAND, Or., Oct. 21.—State Land Agent Davenport, accompanied by W. W. Hepburn, will make a tour of Santiam country above Mill City and Gates in a few days for the purpose of gathering data to present to the department at Washing- | ton to influence the opening for settlement |of a portion of the Cascade reserve | along the line of the Oregon Central ana Eastern Railroad. It is likely a monster petition will be signed on both sides of | mountain range demanding the opening of a wide strip for settilement, and more than likely that the final result will be that the whole Cascade reserve as at pres- | ent outlined may be restored to the public domain. This action may be followed by the establishment of two Government re- serves more in line with reason, as indi- cated by Senator Mitchell, who recently | wrote a letter to Agent Davenport in which | he said : | .“In my opinion a large body of land on | either side of the Oregon Central and | Eastern Railroad ought to be thrown open. | Inever favored the establishment of this reservation in its present form.

FOR MONTHS HE HAD SUFFERED AGONIES WITHOUT ONCE MURMURING. FORTY YEARS IN THE SERVICE. He Was ProBaBLY THE ONLY UN- SHAVEN CATHOLIC ECCLESIAST IN THIis COUNTRY. SANTA BARBARA, Car., Oct. 21.—The Rev. James Vila, who died here at a late hour last night, was the senior parochial clergyman on this coast, and had held his pastorate longer than any other Catholic clergyman. He came of an aristocratic Spanish family, being of the house of Vila in the parish of Campeyes, Spain, the landed proprietors of the great estate known as Campa Vila, in the province of Gerrona. James Vila came to the United States in 1855, and was ordained by the late Arch- bishop Alemany. For two vears he labored in San Diego and San Gabriel, and he com- pleted the thirtv-eighth year of his pas- torate here last month. At one time he held the office of vicar-general of this diocese, but was obliged to resign the office on account of ill health. The story of Father Vila’s labors in Santa Barbara isa long record of loving and unselfish service. In 1867 the old church on Figueroa street was burned down, and it was due to his efforts that the present handsome and substantial brick structure was erected. From this fire the relics of St. Viviana, a martyr of the third century, presented by Pope Pius IX, were miraculously preserved, and are now in Los Angeles. During the absence of Bishop Mora in Europe in the early eighties Father James officiated as the ad- ministrator of the dioceses of Monterey and Los Angeles. Father James Vila was perhaps the only Catholic priest in this country who wore a beard, and Helen Hunt Jackson once chronicled this circumstance, stating that he was permitted to wear it by special papal dispensation. The reverend gentle- man, however, contradicted this report, assuring those who inquired that there was no law in the Catholic church com- pelling its clergymen to be shaven, and declaring that this was merely an honored custom of the church, but that it was no infringement of church rules to deviate from it. her Vila's death, as heretofore ex- plained in Tue CaLr, was due to cancer of the throat, the disease entailing long months of suffering, which he bore with marvelous fortitude and resignation, no murmur escaping his lips. He was greatly beloved, not only by all his varishioners and his associates in the church, but by many Protestants who learned to know and appreciate his gentle character and ntellectual superiority during his long residence here. Bishop Mora and several of the clergy from Los Angeles arrived on the noon train, and will join in the last ceremonies to their friend and fellow-laborer. The funeral will take place on Wednesday morning at 9 o’clock, Bishop Mora himself celebrating pontitical high mass. e Santa Barbara Shipping News. SANTA BARBARA, Car., Oct. 21.—The barkentine Uncle John, Captain McLeod, arrived to-day twenty days from Tacoma, with 450,000 feet of lumber for the Santa Barbara Lumber Company. The schooner Ivy, Captain Mercer, arrived to-day with 190,000 feet of lumber from Humboldt for the Santa Barbara Lumber Company. The schooner Weatherwax, Captain C. B. Hughes, also_arrived to-day, fifteen days from Grays Harbor, with 530,000 feet of lumber for the Pierce Lumber Company. CAPELLE VALLEY HOLD UP LIVERYMAN MANCHESTER ROBBED BY A PATRON FOR WHOM HE WAS DRIVING. ORDERED FROM HIs CARRIAGE AND LEFT BESIDE THE RoAD—HIs ASSAILANT CAUGHT. NAPA, CaL,, Oct. 21.—E. H. Manches- ter, a local liveryman, was held up and robbed of $25 by a man giving the name of Blackwell, in the Capelle Valley, ten miles from Napa. A team had been engaged at. Manchester’s stable to convey Blackwell to Knoxville, a distance of fifty-two miles, and Manchester went along as driver. The hold-up occurred on the return trip. Black- well was captured at Vallejo by Sheriff McKenzie while aboard the steamer Ama- dor to cross the straits en route to San Francisco. ‘When the journey to Knoxville had been made, Blackwell attended to a pretended business transaction, and they started upon the return trip. He requested Man- chester to let him know when they reached a point within ten miles of Napa. In ac- cordance with this request Manchester, on reaching Capelle Valley, told the man that they were about that distance from town. The words had scarcely been uttered be- fore the lines were jerked from Manches- ter's hands and a_revolver was shoved against his face. His assailant said he was Bandit Brady, and ordered the driver to hand over his money. About $25 was taken from the liveryman, but his watch country, as_he had no certificate of rem: tration. His defense was that he was sick all the time when the registration act was in operation, and was, therefore, unable to register. The court held that the defense was a good one and the excuse valid. The question as to who should pay the costs of the arrest and the expense of trial then arose. On this point the court ae- dided that the Government would be liable for the costs. The case is without precedent on this coast. ——— Capture of a Modesto Robber. MODESTO, CarL, Oct. 21.—Constable Davis returned from Reno, Ney., this afternoon, having in charge Roy Drake, charged, together with Joe Fagan,with the robbery of a German here named Burgurzy of $80 a short time ago. Fagan was ar- rested at the time. Drake escaped, but was caught at Reno. Drake, it is believed, whde a confession to the officers to-day, as he was closeted in the Sheriff's private was rejected after a critical scrutiny. Man- chester was ordered out of the carriage and left in the road, the stranger driving on to Napa. ‘When he arrived here the bandit drove into the livery stable and told the senior Manchester that his son had left the car- riage up the street and gone home. He asked the stableman to hitch up another team and drive him to Vallejo, and this Mr. Manchester did. Edward Manchester, when he was ordered out of the carriage by the outlaw, hurried to the ranch of A.J. Raney and borrowed a saddle horse, on which he rode to Napa. Sheriff McKenzie was notified of the robbery and hastened to Vallejo. Blackwell was traced to a house in which he had occupied a room for several hours, and thence to the steamer Amador. He is now in jail bere pending a hearing. Accident at Novato. SAN RAFAEL, CaL., Oct. 21.—A train office for some time, and the officers are ] on the North Pacific Railroad struck a very close-mouthed as to what took place. | handcar carrying several section-men at Novato station last evening. D. Barry, the section boss, sustained injuries which will confine him to his room for many months. The rest of the party escaped with slight injuries. QUESNELLE FORKS CAVE-IN. A Cariboo Mine Workman Buried Be- neath Tons of Earth. VANCOUVER, B. C., Oct. 2.—A big cave-in occurred yesterday at the Cariboo hydraulic gold mine, near Quesnelle Forks, and a man named Budden was buried under a great mass of earth. The cave-in was not unexpected, and all the tools had been removed and it was supposed all the men had left the dangerous ground. How Budden happened.to be caught is un- accountable, When the messenger left the mine the buried man bad not been reached by the digging party, and it had been decided to Iay apipe line and wash the earth away until his body was recovered. The mon- itor was carried over the dump and some sluiges smashed. It will take several days to clear away the dirt and debris and make repairs. e oo PENDLETON FORGERY. Edward Downs Under Arrest for Pa ing Bogus Checks. PENDLETON, Ogr., Oct. 21.—Edward Downs, & barber, was arrested by Sheriff Houser last night for offering five forged checks, amounting in the aggregate to $80. Downs had just passed a caeck for $10 at the Pendleton Hotel when he was arrested. On his way to the County Jail the prisoner made an attempt to escape, but three shots from Deputy Sheriff Carney’s revolver brought him to a standstill. None of the shots took effect. When searched, a customer’s draft for $3500, to which the name of Sam P. Stur- gis, cashier of the First National Bank of Pendleton, had been forged, was found on Downs. He used this draft as a letter of credit, and by displaying it was enabled to have the forged checks for small amounts cashed without suspicion. JAILED AT WOODLAND. The Men Who Robbed Rumsey's Postmaster Captured by Officers in the Mountains. WOODLAND, Car., Oct. Morin at Rumsey, Yolo County, was held up by two masked robbers Saturday night. They compelled Morin to turn over all the Money on hand and then escaped to the mountains. Officers immediately started in pursuit and the men were captured this morning by & number of deputy sheriffs, They gave their names as Stewart and Miller. The robbers were lodged in jail here this afternoon and the officers feel much elated over the capture, as it is the general opinion that these are the men who robbed the Cadannasso Postoffice and relieved an Arbuckle storekeeper of $200. All of these crimes have been committed within the past month. LT Bt Will Lecture at Antioch.

NN NL IT IS HARD TO TELL. Just When Summer Is Finally Over and Autumn Is Here Again. When is summer over, and when does fall begin? 1t §s easy to #ay “Look in the al- manac.” The evidence of that respectable volume is not conclusive, because the seasons glide into each other by slow degrees. One day is sharp and raw, yet the almanac says “summer.” Another is hot and enervating. “It is nutumn,” deelares the same authority. These sudden fluctuations make our Ameri- can climate so trying to the humen constitu. tion. They produce the colds that prostrate the strongest men, and run into pneumonia and even into consumption. All who have pneumonia are not in immediate danger of death. The 0ld are most likely to be taken off. but every attack of this malady weakens the power of the body to resist disease. Wise men and women take no chances. In the seasou of sudden and extreme changes of temperature, they have found that Duffy's Pure Mait Whisky by diluting the blood ves- sels near the surface of the body, prevents the chills and congestions which are the fore- runners of a severe cold. This whisky is made with the utmost care, pproved scientific methods. The most delicate chemical tests fail to show the slightest trace of dele- terious matter in it. A fortifier and a preserver of bodily heat and nervous energy, Dufly's Pure Malt Whisky is never more desirablé than at this uncertain time of the year. All druggists and grocers have it, although some of them may try to per- ¢uade customers that something else_is just ag good. Do not listen to these men.
