SAN BERNARDINO’S LOSS. County Funds Ticd Up in a Collapsed National Bank. SAN BERNARDINO, Car., Jan. 4.— | When the First National Bank of this city | straaded there was supposed to have been within its vaults $16,000 of the county’s money, and on the Treasurer's books it has been counted as so much money, when in reality there was no money there to the county’s credit. During the time the bank has been in the hands of a receiver County Treasurer Reeves has been paid between §4000 and $5000, but this is considered too little and the county demands that the balance be placed in the county’s vaults at once so as tobalance the Treasurer’s books. ‘Where this money is to come from is now the question, but the outlook is that Treasurer Reeves’ bondsmen may be called ntry to pe " —7 (A (L Ak i v WA LIUATTOR i T = N i Frcm a sketch mi B S 1 Twe ity SAAulwl}Y, Y ToTHE Tewer|[|lH1/ A ¥ a ‘‘Call” s:iaff artist.

KILLED Terrible Massacre of Armenians by the Fiendish Kurdish Raiders. One Account of the Latest Outrage Says There Were Two Thou- sand Victims. LONDON, Exc., Jan. 4.—The corre- spondent of the United Press at Constan- tinople telegraphs under date of January 3 thata terrible massacre has taken place at Biridjik, near Aintab, in Asia Minor, The official report of the occurrence states that 500 people were killed. NTINOPLE, TurkEyY, Jan. 4.— | ved here that the massacre at Biridjik was committed by the Kurds of | the Hamdieh cavalry. The recent mas- sacre at Orfah was a terrible affair. The Constantinople reports admit that 900 persons were killed, but other accounts 2000 were slaughtered. BOSTON, Mass., Jan. 4.—Beridjik, where sacre is reported to have occurred, is an outstation of Aintab, a sta- tion of the American Board in Central Turkey. There is one ordained native | preacher and one native teacher and one place for stated preaching. The average congregation was eighty-five, with 160 ad- berents, fifty-two church members and two received on confession during the year. There are two eommon schools, with forty pupits. —_—— Fire on the Glengowan. LONDON, Exc., Jan. 4.—The new Brit- ish ship Glengowan, Captain Dougherty, from Swansea, October 15, for San Fran- cisco, arrived at the Falkland Islands De- cember 17, having been guttea by fire.

Stude- | | ment over the railroad company’s delay in co-operating, and while there are mar people and plenty of fun in town the car- nival is pract postponed until early next week. Truckee is so situated that it can do nothing without the railroad, and the railroad managers have studied their own convenience 1n taking advantage of | the transportation opportunities that have been afforded by the enterprise of the | Truckee men. The railroad may make as | much money one time as another oat of | the carnival, but a delay of a week or ten days, when everything is ready, meansa | loss to Truckee. The mountain town, half-buried in a foot of Sierra snow, aroused itself this morning before the sun shone over the eastern peaks and the Ice King’s palace became the central object of interest. But there were no excursionists to come, and the strangers already here scattered about in pursuit of the natural winter amuse- ments of Truckee—sleigh riding to Donner Lake, skating on the ponds about town and sliding on the hill that leads down from the rocking stone at McGlashan’s tower. Tobogganing was the only feature at the ice palace, for the carnival skaters were sent to Henry's Pond, an eighth of a mile away, to permit the company to make some improvements in the rink. There were some exciting scenes at the toboggan slide. A local business man— James Goggins—concluded to stop at the middle point of the descent, so he reached out and grabbed a post at one side. He says that he will never do that “some more.” The toboggan, at the rear end of whic b he bhad been stationed, shoton with- out him. The experimenter landed in the other chute, plunged down a few feet, bounded back into the chute that he had just leit and then finished the slide with- out any toboggan. He was not hurt, but only a Truckee man could have survived the adventure, A party of drummers “showed off” a iittle by rocking their toboggan while go- ing at the rate ot a mile or two a minute, and it took three natives to dig them out of a snowbank. The longest possible slide from the top of the chute is an eighth of a mile, no two miles, as has been stated in some of the papers. There wasno music at the palace to-day. The electrical display promised for this evening was deferred until to-morrow night, and the opening pyrotechnical show is reserved for the arrival of the first large excursion party. A beautiful scene to- night is the illumination of McGlashan’s tower and the torchlight marking of the roadway, down which the young people are coasting from the tower to the railroad line.

Hundreds of Visitors Admire the Array of Luscious Products of a Sunny Land. . FRESNO, Car., Jan. 4 —FEight hundred people viewed the citrus fair this after- noon, and during the evening the atten- dance was even larger. The display is much more effective under the electric lights than in the daytime, and besides in the evening an excellent musical and literary programme was rendered. The managers of the fair have decided to keep it open until Tuesday night. It wiil be open to-morrow afternoon, and in the evening a sacred band concert will be given. All exhibits will be passed upon Mon- day afternoon, and the diplomas will be awarded by a committee consisting of R. H. McDonald of Porterville, I. H. Thomas of Visalia and Superintendent Wyer of this city. hose who have smiled incredulously at the representations that have been made by the citizens of Fresno County concern- ing its adaptabilities for the growing of citrus fruit have only to visit Armory Hall and be surprised and convinced. It was wise in the management to exclude out- siders in the display, as it shuts off any controversy that could arise in regard to the products of Fresno County. Every sample of fruit on exhibition is the result of local cultivation and a product of Fres- nated, and the shouts of the happy out- no County. The citizens of the county have taken great interest in the success of J. Bardoni, Sierra | upon to make the amount good, as there is but a small chance of the receiver of the bank being able to collect the deficit. Treasurer Reeves is in no way blamed for the deficiency, as it has alwavs been cus- tomary to divide the county’s money among the general city banks, so as to keep it in circuiation.

HE sick man knock- ing at the door of health gets in if he knocks the right way, and. stays out if he doesn’t. "There are thousand of ways of getting sick. There is only one way to get well. Do whatever you will if you do mot put your digestion in good order, and make your blood rich and pure, you will not get well. Rich, pure blood is the only thing that can bring perfect health. A large part of all the diseases that afflict mankind are traceable directly 5 to impurities in the blood, and can be cured by eliminating these impurities. That most dreadful of all diseases, consumption, is a disease of the blood. The disease shows in the lungs because of some inherited oracquired weak- ness there. If the blood were always pure and without germs, the disease would never develop and in time weakness itself would overcome. Germs and impurities in the blood float along through the body until they find a weak spot for lodgement, They stick there and develop and people call the disease by the name of the organ afflicted. As a matter of fact, the diswise is always a disease of the blood, and if the blood be purified, the disease will be cured. That is a perfectly natural, rational conclusion, en- dorsed both by common sense and the highest medical authority. It is in accord- ance with these facts that Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery works. The first thing it does is to put the whole diges- tive system into perfect order. It stimu- lates the appetite, excites the copious secre- tion of the digestive fluidsvang promotes assimilation. It searches out disease germs ‘wherever they may be, kills them and forces them out of the system. The ‘“Golden Medical Discovery” has been used with unvarying success for over 30 years.
