4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, MAY 12, 1896. STANFORD MEN WILL GO EAST, Athletes to Compete in the Field Events at Chicago. CONFIDENT OF VICTORY. Eight Wearers of the Cardinal Expected to Capture the Championship. RAISING FUNDS FOR THE TOUR Receipts From the Sale of the Senior Classbook Generously Contributed. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car., May 11.—Stanford’s track team is going East— at least that is what Track Manager Brown and Captain George Toombs say. Already plans have been made which promise financial success and application has been made for entry in the Western intercol- legiate championship meet, which takes place in Chicago on June6. Not all the men will go, but eight prize-winners have been selected whom, it is believed, stand a good chance of winning a great victory for Stanford. Those selected are Brunton, Bernhard, Brown, Dole, Reynolds, Wil- bur, Toombs (captain) and either Frazier, Jack, Hazzard or Fickert, as may be de- cided hereafter by their individual work. “With this aggregation,” said Manager Brown, “I'm willing to go agamst any like number of men from any college. Of course I wouldn’t expect victory steadily, but all the contests would be exciting and we wouldn’t be outclassed. With the Western Intercollegiate Association, of which Berkeley is now champion, I feel certain we stand a good show of winning. ‘We mean to make a good try.”’ The whole scheme has been kept very quiet up to this time, as it was uncertain just what could be done. After Stanford’s virtual victory in the intercollegiate meet many enthusiasts thought than Stanford could pick out eight or ten men who could win most anything and now they are willing to help the boys show what they can do. Three weeks yet remain before the team will leave and all the men will go into training at once. Captain Toombs says that they will be all the better for their lay-off, and that they are in fair con- dition now was shown by individual per- formances during the San Jose carnival. Coaches and rubbers will be obtained at oace and the training-table started. The estimated cost of the trip will be $1100. Ten or twelve days will be occupied by the team in its tour and it will enter but the one meet. The scheme which is to furnish the wherewithal for this venture is due to Messrs. Hanscom and Colliver, students, who are issuing the senior -classbook. Already they have orders enough to pay the expenses of their undertaking, and as the sale of the volume promised to be very large they generounsly offered to divide evenly with the track team all volumes sold over and above those necessary to pay expenses, The sale is expected to reach at least 500 copies, which would mean be- tween $700 and $800 to the team. The re- maining amount will be made up by the men themselves or through plans which are now being arranged The senior classbook is one of the most elaborate pieces of work ever attempted by a Western university. It is got up in large album style, strongly bound in an engraved cover, with the senior class colors—straw, gold and cardinal. The book is devoted entirely to photogravares of interest to Stanford University, It is to be a souvenir of this institution, and will contain individual photogravures of the Stanford family, the university faculty members, of every member of the senior class, large group engravings of the Varsity and class football, baseball and track teams, and between fiity and sev- enty-five views of the campus, including views of the quadrangle, exterior and in- terior of buildings, Palo Alto, residences (including Mrs. Stanford’s mansion), fra- ternity houses, athletic grounds and snap- shots; also views taken after and during the recent celebration when the victory in the great Staniord case was decided. The Junior Class Annual —the third book of its kind issued from this univer- sity—appeared to-day and nearly 400 copies were at once disposed of. There has been a feeling of general anxiety on the part of the students, for no one knows that he may not be bit in the ‘‘joshes” and “grinds,” and no one can tell just how severely the sting may affect him. Itis safe to say the ‘‘grinds” in the present volume will cause no hard feeling; none show the slightest touch of malice, but all are good-natured and recognized as perti- nent. This annual, issued by the class of 97, is superior to any of its predecessors in many respects. The design on the cover is taste- ful and unique; the binding itself isin white, gold and cardinal. One of the most striking features of the whole work is the amount and the excellence of the illustra- tions—all the work of Stanford artists and chiefly from the class talent. R. K. Cul- ver '97, now of Tur CALL staff, was in charge of the art work, and his talent is proved by some of the finest pieces in the volume. The design of the coveris his creation. He was assisted by Messrs. Allen, McCartney, Johnson, Ely and Hyde and by the Misses Holly and Mor- ton. Certainly the art work is far superior to anything ever issued here. There are no less than three-score full-page engray- ings and more than a hundred half-page small cuts. There are pictures of the board of ed- itors, of nine faculty members, of most of the fraternities, athletic team and studenc organizations, of Stanford’s debaters, literary societies and local scenes from hotcgraphers. Then there are elaborate oot pieces and head pieces, pen- and-ink sketches ad infinitum. In ton- ing none of the work surpasses Miss Holly’s, while Miss Morton’s efforts in the Decadent style and following Beards- leg: innovation are remarkably wood. ane Coolidge 98 took the prize for the best short story, while Irving Qutcalt ’96 has the prize poem. The “Quaa” is yprinted on the highest grade glazed book paper and contains nearly 300 pages. Edwin Maslin Hulme, the editor-in- chief, was born in London 23 years ago, and came to America at the age of 14, In Portland, Or., Mr. Hulme became con- nected with the Review as musical and dramatic His work brought him into prominence, and his poems, which began to appear about this time, brought him encouragement from some leading poets and writersof the day. Mr. Hulmeen- tered Stanford three years aio and has been connected from the first with the Sequoia, of which he has_just been elected editor- in-chief. Associated with Mr. Hulme in the publication of the ‘‘Quad” were the following juniors: Snerrili B. Osborne, J. H. Timmons, R.J. O'Neil, J. M. Ross, J. F. Barnett, J. W. Bell and Miss Jessie A. Ryan. R. H. Spencer was the business manager. There has been a very heavy sale of the book and it will undoub tedly prove a financial success. & Plans have been drawn, and Resident Architect Hodges is arranging for ‘the let- ting of the contract for building a large auditorium here. The building will be a frame structure, but of expensive con- struction. It will be built with special reference to its acoustic properties, and will probably be completed during the vear. Heretofore there has been a great need of such & building, and this is the first want to be satistied. The great stone chemistry laboratory will next be built, but, though the contract is let for its con- straction, it will not be begun this year. When completed, however, it will be the fincst building of its kind on the coast. On Thursday next the ’96 and '98 class baseball teams are to settle the class cham- plonship in a match game, and on Friday evening tue glee and mandolin clubs are to give their final concert here. LOUOS ANGELES SUFFRAGISTS. Women Praise % The Call” for Its Ad- vocacy of Iheir Cause. LOS ANGELES, Can, May 11.—The campaien work in behalf of the eleventh amendment to the State constitution, conferring the right of franchise upon women, is going forward in all parts of Los Angeles County. Tne committee opened headquarters in room 300 of the Byrne block in this city this afternoon, where the executive committee will meet every Monday afternoon. The committee has offered first and second prizes of $10 and $5 to_grammar school pupils of Los Angeles County for the best essays of 800 | words on the question of suffrage, the essays to be ready for submission on or be- fore July 1.

VISALIVS QUTLAW BAND, Lovren and Ardell to Be Tried Separately for Train Robbery. Under-Sheriff Daggett Recovers From the Wound Received in the Goshen Hold-Up. VISALIA, Can., May 11.—8i Lovren and Charles Ardell were arraigned this morn- | ing for complicity in the attempted South- | ern Pacific train holdup on March 18, i when Dan McCall was killed by Officers | Daggett and Reed. The reading of the in- formation was waived and the defendants both pleaded not guilty. District Attor- ney Howard then demanded that, as the defendants had insisted on separate trials, the case of Lovren be called first. The defense demurred to this, but the District Attorney bad the right to designate which should be tried first, so the order was made. The next move by the defense was for time. The prosecution was ready to pro- ceed, but Lovern’s attorneys wanted at least a month in which to make grepuru- tions. Judge Gray sucgested that both cases be disposed of before the summer vacation. They were finally set for June 1. Under-Sheriff Earl Daggett, who was wounded by Outlaw McCall, returned to Visalia on this morning’s train from Tulare. He was accompanied by his mother and father. A closed carriage met them at the depot, and as soon asthey dismounted from the train they entered the carriage and were driven home. Quite a number of the wounded deputy’s friends were present to welcome him back. Young Daggett was well wrapped up in a big overcoat and was looking well. He had a narrow escape from death. i ARRAIGNED AT STOCKTOAN. Mrs. Jennie Vaccaressa Held for the Alleged Killing of Her Hus- band. BTOCKTON, Car., May 11.—Mrs, Jennie Vaccaressa was to-day held to answer in the Superior Court to the accusation of having slain her husband by strangula- tion. The charge against the woman was reduced to manslaughter, bail being fixed at $5000. Mrs. Vaccaressa went to the house of a neighbor named Silva shortly before mid- night on the night of March 81 and told Silva that a thief hag entered the house and, after robbing her of what little money she had, turned upon her husband, and was struggling with him when she left. Silva at once secured assistance, and, on going to the Vaccaressa home, found the husband dead, his body lving near the front door. About his neck was a rope, with which he had been strangled. Mrs. Vaccaressa’s stories were so con- flicting and regarded as so flimsy by the authorities that she was arrested and charged with the murder of her husband. To a CALL corresnondent she started to tell the story of a fight with her husband, but was checked by the advice of her attorney. Her husband frequently beat her, and on the night he was killed he had assauited her, threatening to beat her to death with a musket that he bad carried into the bedroom. Mrs. Vaccaressa’s bail is supplied py the wealthiest two men in the county. e ey SANTA BARBARA INVENTION, Eleotric Lights Which Do Not Illuminate Surrounding Lots.

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Car., May 11.—Dr. J. W. Gregory, a phy-ician residing near San Jose Valley, arrived here late last night, and putting his team in a livery stable started for his town residence, some distance from the center of the city. When near home he was met met by a man whom Le thought was his hired man, but the fel- low proved to be a stranger, who deait the doctor two_terrific blows behind the ear with a sandbag.

The Ceremony Hastened at the Wish of the Stricken Parent. HIS LAST WORD A BLESSING. Mourning in a Home Which Was to Have Been a Scene of Gayety To-Day. SANTA BARBARA, CiL, May 1L— There was a marriage and a death in the Arlington Hotel this evening. The one event, which Santa Barbara society looked forward to with expectancy, was saddened by the other. It wasa romantic wedding, but the touch of the Reaper that made it so chilled the romance and left mourning where there should have been happiness. For some time past E. W. Gaty, one of the proprietors of the Arlington, has been a very sick man. He was afflicted with Bright's disease of the kidneys and with it heart trouble. This morning his con- dition ctanged for the worse and he died at 6 o'clock this evening. Mr. Gaty’s daughter, Ada, was to have married N. T. Powell, the cashier of the Arlington, to-morrow, but when the change in her father’s condition came a clergyman was called and the couple were made man and wife and received the con- gratulations and blessing of the dying man, Mr. Gaty was well known in Santa Bar- bara politics, and many a time he swung his forces into line and snatched victory out of what seemed like hopeless defeat. He was twice Mayor of this city and was an upright, honorable gentleman, whose demise is deeply mourned. FORESTERS GATHER AT UKIAH. Delegates to the High Court Shown Places of Interest Near the Town. UKIAH, Can, May 1l.—Delegates to the High Court of the Ancient Order of Foresters arrived here to-day on the noon train. Seventy courts throughout the State are represented by about 125 dele- gates. Court Redwood of this place un- der the command of Marshal G. W. Stout, headed by the Ukiah cornet band, escorted the visiting delegates and the Cloverdale band to Odd Feliows' Hall, where the vis- itors were welcomed by J. M. Mannon of Court Redwood. After dinner various places of interest in the vicinity of Ukiab were visited. The committee on jurisprudence and supervision, to whom was referred some 120 proposed amendments to the general laws, will, in all probability, ask further time in which to submit 'its’ report. It is said it will report favorably on the proposi- tion to allow the consideration of amend- ments proposed on the floor of the High Court meeting; also that of holding bien- nial in place of annual sessions. A concert by the Ukiah and Cloverdale bands was tendered delegates at the opera house this evening. The session of the High Court convenes to-morrow morning. e i FAIR 0AKS COLONISTS. Thirty-Five Excursionists From Chicago Visit the Flourishing Settle- ment. NEWCASTLE, CaL., May 11.—The How- ard Wilson Publishing Company’s fourth excursion to Fair Oaks from Chicago, with thirty-five people, arrived here at 4:50 o'clock this afternoon with Assistant Manager A. M. Hubbs and wife in charge. The visitors were escorted to the various wholesale fruithouses, where supplies of early cherries, strawberries, raspberries and fancy-pressed Adriatic figs were at their disposal. They were then driven through the Newcastle fruit orchards, ar- riving at Auburn at 6 o'clock, where they were banqueted at the Freeman Hotel. To-morrow they will be driven through the city of Auburn, viewing Eolia Heights, then winding their way through the fruit districts of Newcastle, Penryn and Loomis to Fair Oaks, where they all expect to make their future home. The Howard Publishing Company has already sold 2500 acres in Fair Oaks colony, in parcels of five and ten acre lots. There are 250 people now settled in the colony and 650 acres have been cleared and vlanted. e ARRESTED AT LOS ANGELES. “Baron” Charles J. Van Arnold Lodged in a Prison Cell. LOS ANGELES, Can, May 11.—The bogus nobleman who has been a central attraction 1n Pasadena, Pomona and other Southern California towns of late, whose name is now known to be Charles J. Van Arnold, but whose assumed cog- nomen was ‘“Baron Karl R. A. von Steinitz,” was arrested here this afternoon for carrying concealed weapons. The Baron was photographed just like a com- mon per-on this afternoon. It is strongly intimated in police circles that he is sus- pected of graver offenses than that of carrying a concealed gun. Heatmrelo mEs SAN LUIS LECTURES. Miss Mills Advocates the Equal Suffrage Amendment. SAN LUIS OBISPO, CiL., May 1L.—A large eathering attended the female suffragist meeting this afternoon. Miss Harriet May Mills of New York spoke, and in concluding her speech remarked : “‘Miss Yates and I don’t wear bloomers and short hair. We are like other people. It doesn’t make us ‘new’ women in the vul- gar sense because we are suffrage lectur- ers.” \ She was loudly cheered. She was fol- ates, and Mrs. lowed by Miss . 8. Brown, Mrs. W. W. Madge and Rev. J.

SEATTLE, Waiss., May 11.—The steamv ships Willapa and Alki arrived in port to- day from the North bringing the latest Alaskan advices. The Willapa had as one of its passengers ‘Jimmy'’ Jackson, the intrepid Alaskan hali-breed, whose return to the Sound closes a 2000-mile winter journey made for the purpose of taking to the imprisoned miners on the Yukon a supply of mail matter to break the tedious- ness of the long Arctic winter. There were five in the mail party--three Indians and two white men. The whites were L. 8. Hodge and N. McNeil, both of whom, Jackson says, undountedly perished. He and the other two Indians deserted their white companions, who from excessive cold and hunger had become very slow travelers, late in December and no word has since been heard from them. Jackson’sarrival on March 22 at Forty Mile, his aestination, created the greatest excitement. He wasa ‘‘big man” at the diggings and nothing was too good for him. The trip was one of hardship and suffering and was made only after the last d“fi(g‘zvenl having been taken along for sledding purposes) had been killed and eaten asa precaution against what ap- peared to be in sight—starvation. Jackson expects to carry mailinto the Yukon again next winter and by the same route, but this summer he will establish stations be- tween Takou barbor and Takish, at each of which he will cache clothing and food lu{Elies. e Canadian mail which carriers at- tempted to convey into the Yukon in wmid- winter lies entombed in snow on the sum- mit of Chilcat pass. THE WEAVERVILLE TRIAL John Vinton Swears to Having Been Ambushed and Shot by Littlefield. Displays in Ccurt the Scars From the Wounds Inflicted by the Vaqu ro. WEAVERVILLE, Cav.,, May 11.—When the trial oi Constables Crow and Van Horn, for complicity in the lynching of *Jack” Littlefield on September 27, 1894, was resumed this morning, J. M. Vinton was called to thestand. Vintonis “King” George E. White's right bower, and it was at his demand that Littlefield was ar- rested. He claimed to have been shot by Littlefield, and because ‘of this alleged shooting the vaquero met his death at the hands of the lynchers. Vinton told of having been shot from behind a tree by a masked man, whoran as soon as he had fired. He recognized the attempted muraerer as “Jack’ Littlefield. He tried to raise his rifle to return the shot, but was partially paralyzed and soon fell from the horse and fainted from loss of blood. Every one in the courtroom crowded forward as Vinton bared his bre ast ana showed the scars of the wounds and described his narrow escape from d eath. He told of reaching Haydon'’s place that night 1n a desperately wounded condition. On his arrival he sent for Constable Van Horn and demanded the arrest of Little- field. Vinton said that he owned one-half inte rest in a cattle herd with John Rohr- bough, a nep hew of George E. White. Fred Radcliffe, a picturesque cowboy wearing fringed buckskin trousers, was the next witness. He was questioned by the prosecution as to his movements and whereabouts, particularly when in com- pany with Joe Gregory on the 17th of Sep- temb er, and as ln‘geinx at Haydon’s place and going out with ‘“‘Buck' Lacock, Joe Gregory. Thomas Haydon, Constable Van Horn, Deputy Constable John Crow and Geordon Van Horn to the scene where Vinton was shot. Following Radcliffe Thomas Haydon, the owner of the ranch to which Vinton came, took the stand and named the differ- ent persons at his house on September 26 and 27, The last witness of the afternoon was Elisha Kane, a splendid physical specimen of the old forty-niner. He testilied to having gone to Haydon’s ranch after hear- ing of the shooting of Vinton. He sat up with the sick man and first heard from Vinton tbat Littlefield had shot him on the night of Septembver 26. He also named the persons who came to the Hay- don place while he was there. The object of the line of testimony in- troduced by the prosecution to-day seems to be to prove a conspiracy, with the de- fendants as the tools. R T MARSHFIELD MURDERER’S FATE. Carl Aubrecht Sentonced to Death for Killing His Wife. MARSHFIELD, Or, May 1L.—Judge Fullefton. in the State Circuit Court at Empire City, to-day sentenced Carl Au- brecbt to be hanged on June 26. Aubrecht was convicted of murdering his wife in South Marshfield on February 18. The prisoner shot and killed his wife on a street because she refused to provide for his supper. Aubrecht had been very cruel to the woman for a number of years and his treatment became so_bitter the week before the crime that she left him and in- stituted divorce prodeedings. Aubrecht did nis utmost to get her to return, and the dav before the crime said that he would talk no longer but would kill her the next day. After Mrs, Aubrecht returned from doing a day’s w: ad ehieat y ashing he made good his S PLACERVILLL'S LOSS. Passing of Samuel K. Miller, a Pioncer of 1850. PLAACERV[LLE, Cav,, May 11.—Samuel R.

HOUNDS OFF THE TRACK Trace the Fugitives to a Creek and There the Scent Is Lost. MANY POSSES IN THE HILLS. Officers B:lieve Starvation Will Soon Drive the Escapes From Their Retreat. MADERA, CAL., May 11.—The pursuit of the fugative outlaws, Laverone and Roberts, who escaped from the jail at this place after a desperate struggle with Jailer Wells last Thursday, is growing exciting. The Indians of Picayune Rancheria have joined in the chase. It is the first time they ever volunteered their sérvices to capture a white criminal; but they want revenge for the killing of the old squaw Marie, about eight months ago, by a white man who coverad his tracks so well that they were unable to capture him. Sheriff Westfall is working near Fine Gold; George Wells, a son of the jailer, and James Hamilton are at the head of the posse at North Fork; Samuel Prewett has a posse under him at Table Mountain, and the constable at Pollasky has had guards stationed at the bridge on the San Joaquin ever since the day of the jail- break. Unless the bandits have secured help from an unknown source, they will have to show themselves to get provisions. The only person who returned with any news from the bhills to-day was Jailor ‘Wells. He started yesterday afternoon to join the chase, but he had not gpne far before the wounds in his hand anfl arm, received in the struggle with the outlaws on the night of the jail-break, caused the member to swell to such a size that it be- came necessary for him to return. The outlaws are surrounded in the foot- hills or else they have completely duped the officers and have escaped into Auberry Valley or crossed over the mountain range in the snow into Mono or Inyo county. Yesterday, when Deputy Sheriff Jones re- turned to the hills with the bloodhounds, trail which bad been identified by Lily Larsen, and the hounds started baying. They set such a rapid pace that the offi- cers, who were well mounted, could not keep up to them, as the dense growth of underbrush made it impossible to get through the gulches at a very rapid pace. They soon lost sight of te dogs, which started in a southerly direction and circled around the southern end of the Table Mountain and then led off toward the San Joaquin. Some of the other men who were on the lookout saw them, and, knowing that they were trailing, followed them until the dogs led them intoa deserted sheep camp. Here the animals lost the trail, as there were numberless tracks of the berders. There wasa stream a short dis- tance from the camp, and it is the theory of the officers that Laverone and Roberts, learning that the dogs were in pursnit of them, walked in the water for some dis- tance to throw the dogs off the scent. The officers took the dogs and patrolled both sides of the stream, both above and below the crossing, but the hounds were unable to pick up the trail, e Forestville Accident. SANTA ROSA, CaL, May 11.—The up- setting of a wagon near Forestville last night resulted in the almost instant death of a Chinaman and the very serious injury he succeeded in putting the dogs on the | of W.H.

Welsh, a liveryman of this city, met with an acci- dent near the Iron Mountain mine last evening that may cost him his life. Welsh left this city at noon yesterday with a mining man, bound for Iron Moun- tain. Thetwo, in a buigy drawn by two fiery horses, arrived at the copper mine of the Mountain Mines Company at 4:30 o’clock. Welsh volunteered his services as guide for his companion through the mine. The works had been temporarily closed, and he was advised by the mine authori- ties not to venture underground. Not heeding the entreaties of the miners he started on a tour of the subterranean caverns. That was the last seen of the two by em- ployes of .the mine. Two hours thereafter their bugey, without team or driver, was discovered about three miles below camp. A diligent search resulted in the finding of Welsh in a chasm below the road, which was built on a high grade, bleeding and suffering from severe injuries and gashes on his head and body. His horses had become umanageable and ran away. In their course down the grade they ran against a tree and threw the driver to the gulch below. He was carried to a cabin, where he now liesin the care of his wife. i RS Fatality at Tempe. PHENIX, Ariz., May 11.—J. Roe Young Jr., the eight-year-old son of J.

Will Not Bs Sent Over the Course Until the Wind Blows Less Strongly. SANTA BARBARA, CiL., May 11.—It is blowing haif a gale here to-day, and unless there is an abatemnent the battle- ship Oregon will not go on 1ts trial trip to- morrow. The Oregon is now lying in the channel, and while the other vessels heeled over to the blasts until they almost dipped their yards in the water it never made a motion and seemed asfirmasa rock. As the wind may die out to-night, Ad- miral Beardslee believed it wou!d bebet- | ter to send the stakeboats to their posi- tions. The McArthur got away atday- break for its position near Point Concep- tion. The Albatross sailed next for Goleta Point, but the Gedney was delayed over an hour by an order from the admiral to Captain Osborne to ‘‘Come aboard!” It | appears a mistake was made in the laying out of the course, and the captain was wanted to consult with the officers of the navy in rectifying the error. After that was accomplished, the little survey boat | went on its way. The men on the three boats will bave a lively time of it. Admiral Beardslee and Irving M. Scott went aboard the battle-ship this morning and will not leave it again until after the trial. According to the weather sharps here this will not be for three or four days, as they say a gale here always lasts three days. The only guests on board the Ore- gon are Mr. Small of Balfour, Guthrie & Co.. General Graham of the Presidio, Dr. Chismore and J. E. Tucker, United States Appraiser at San_Francisco. If it isde- ciged not to send the battle-ship on its trial to-morrow, Mr. Tucker will return home on the first train. the Actual 924 to 930 S NEW TO-DAY. - Bl46 Pairs ALL/98L From the great Assignee Sale of Under Baldwin Hotel. oooooooooog @ (00000000 DANTS wholesale stock of J.

No Use Nowadays for Puny, Debilitated Indle viduals—Everybody Can Be Quickly, Easlly, Permanently Made Happy. ' Sparkling eyes, s quick-beating heart and the rosy blush of pleasure greet the strong, manly man when he meets his iadylove. That is the kind of man whose very touch thrills because it is full of energy, vig- orous nerye power and vitality. That is the kind of man that every man should be, and his magnetic presence would make everybody happy sround him. Why isitnot so? One of the principal reasons is the uniyersally prevail- Ing tobucco habit. Tobacco kills nerve. Stay with tobacco long enough and every man will be a sallow, skinny, nerveless wreck, inspiring disgust instead of -love and aftection. No man who uses tobacco cen be as much of & msn as without it. No grasp so strong as the death grip of a habit, and man once fully in its clutches is helpless without aid. That's why every to- bacco-user has the same good excuse—* I can't quit.” No-To-Bac removes this only excuse, and any one who will can quit easily, quickly and permanently. Here's an instance: MADE HIS WIFE HAPPY. CRESTLINE, Ohio, June 6.
