4 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1869. HORSE-WHPPIG AT SHITA CRUZ Mrs. Catherine Mackenzie: Lashes Superior Judge Logan. Sensational Encounter on One of the City's Principal : Streets. REVIVES AN OLD SCANDAL. Bitterness Engendered by a Divorce | Supit in Which the Woman | Was Cec-Respoadent. | SANTA CRUZ, CAL, Oct. 7.—Superior Judge Logan and Mrs. Catberine Macken- zie were the principals in a sensational | horse-whipping episode here to-night, the | woman wielding the whip. The assault | was the outgrowth of the old Dr. Stewart | divorce scanda!, when Judge Logan ap- | peared =s a witness for the wife and | against Mrs. Mackenzie, who was named | as corespondent in the suit. The Judge was watking up Pacific ave- | hen Mrs, Mackenzie, who had been | ying in wait around the corneron Church | sireet, came hurrisdly out and drew from | under ber cloak a small cart whip, with a stock two feet long and plaited buekskin | lash,’ She tried to strike Judge Logan | upon the shoulders. The Judge, who is a well-knit, powerfual | caught the force of the blow on his | ted band, and the whip was taken | from the- infuriated woman by Officer Horton, who witnessed the assault. 1 n quietly turned away and | e which had been or- | dered to tak im into the country. The | officer arrested Mrs. Mackeazie and took | her to Justice Gardmer’s court, where, | after deta: g her awhile, she was al- | lowed to go. Judge Logan had no knowl- | edge that she was actually under arrest, | and consequently made no complaint. Mrs. Mackenzie came to Santa Cruz in 882 with Dr. Stewart and located on Etha | Hill eight milesjfrom the city. They passed | in the best society as brother and sister. | In 1890 there appeared upon the scene at | Etha Hill a Mrs. Stewart, who proved her- | self the wife of Dr. Stewart. A bombskell ! | falling in Santa Cruz society circles could not hsve caused a greater sensation than when Mrs. Stewart made grave charges of | infidelity, and claimed that the doctor and | Mrs. Mackenzie were not brother and sis- | ter. The scandal was widespread, and | consequently caused their ostracism from | society. | Two months after the wile appeared Dr. Stewart sought a divorce. Up to this time Judge Logan bnad maintained the most friendly relations with Dr. Stewart and Mrs. Mackenzie, who both looked to the Judge for moral support in the suit. Dr. Stewart, just before bringing his action, trausferred the Etha Hill vinevard and ranch, with other property, to Mrs. Mac- kenzie. Judge Lozan then refused to side with them and took the part of the wife, whom, he believed, was the aggrieved party. The suit was eventually dismissed. The wife then instituted a suit for divorce, alleged statutory grounds, and Mrs, Mackenzie as co-respondent. The suit was tried before Judge Breen, sitting in Judge | Logan’s court, and the latter gentleman appearing asa witness for the wife. The | suit was won by Mrs. Stewart, and in 1895 a decree of divorce was granted, the court | holding that Dr. Stewart and Mrs. Mack- enzie were not brother and sister. The | denial of a new trial was made last Satur- | day. [ Since the decision in 1885 Mrs. Macken- | zie has given proof of a bitter feeling l against Judge Logan, which culminated | to-day in the personal assault upon him. | EXPLOSION AT SANTA CRUZ. | Grinding-Mill in the California Powder | Works Wrecked—No Loss of i Life. | SANTA CRUZ, Car., Oct. 7.—An explo- sion at the California Powder Works, two miles above this city, this morning at 2:30 | o’clock, destroyed the roof and siding of a single wheel grinding-mill, but resulted in no injury to employves. The mill was running on fuse powder, which requires three hours’ time, other powder requiring from four to twelve hours, according to | character and quality. The two men em- | ploved’ at this mill are required to be in | the mill only at certain times to start or stop the machinery, sna at the time of this explosion they were ata safe distance. No cause can be assigned for the acci- dent, as nothing was left of the com- position in the process of grinding, and there was no impairment of the machinery sufficient to show irregularity of its oper- ation. The framework, built of timbers ten inches square, stands there this morn- | ing naked as the day it was first con- structed. The roof, sides and every light piece of wood were blown out 1n chuneks | and splinters. One door was lodged in a| tree fifty feet high. The bed in which the grinding wheels were run was damaged considerably, but the pair of wheels, weighing seven tons, still stand as firm as though no accident had occurred. The debris and framework canght fire after the explosion, but the watchmenand workmen quickly responded and soon | quenched it. The building stands isolated jrom the others among the irees, so danger to the other buildings from fire was slight, The report of the explosion was plainly beard in all parts of the city. —_—— THUGGERY AT PORTLAND. Keyholes of Fire-Alarm Boxes Repeatedly Plugged—Incendiary Conflagrations Feared. PORTLAND, Or., Oct 7.—Chief of Police Robertson and the Police Department bave been greatly annoyed by the plug- ging of keyholes of fire-alarm boxes and a | sharp lookout is being kept for those en- gaged in this mischief. Several men are under suspicion and if deteeted it will go hard with them, as the plugging of a key- holein a fire-alarm box is a penitentiary offense. Chief of Police Robertson dces not presume to say who the guilty parties are, but among the members of the police force it is hinted that they might be dis- charged employes of the Fire Department, who are doing this in order to hamper the work of their successors and bring oditm upon the administration in the event of a fire. Itis claimed that it is this effort on the vart of some one to injure the workin, of the Fire Department tbat has caus the Police Commissioners to decide upon an _police force. The situation here with regard to fires | | they could see. is a very delicate one and insurance com- panies are in a quandary which way to turn. There is such a bostile sentiment against the reorganized Fire Department that incendiary lires are incessantly men- acing the city. A Fire Commissioner re- marked thisevening that an ex-member of the old department predicted a very de- structive fire within the month. plssaseiins s GRANGERS VISIT FOLSOM. Inspect the Prison and the Orangevale Orchards — A Social at the Capitol. SACRAMENTO, Car, Oct. 7.— The members of the State Grange and their invited guesls spent the day at Folsom, visited the prison, drove through the or- chards of Orangevale, inspected the mines, feasted and danced in the grove adjoin- ing the town, and returned to this city at an early hour this evening on their special train, Tie grange reconvened in the Senate Chamber of the Capitol building to-night and listened to an able address delivered by E. D, McCabe, secretary to Governor Budd. It had been expected that the Gov- ernor would be present and address the members, but he was detained elsewhere. The grange was assured by his representa- tive that the Governor was with it in any proposition which would add to its pros- perity, and would give any aid in his power to promote legislative enactments which woulid be to its advantage. V. W. Greer, master of the grange, responded in an eloquent speech. One of the pleasing features of the evening’s pro- gramme was a flower dance, performed by six beautiful young ladies attired in colonial costume, who sang as they danced of tbe fruitand flowers of golden California. The figures of the dance were somewhat similar to the colonial minuet. s gl e SAN JOSE'S CHINESE FEUD. | 4h Wah Dies From the Effects of a Bullet Wound Recsived in a Gaming- House. SAN JOSE, CaL, Oct. 7.—Ah Wah, the Chinese who was shot on Tuesday morn- ing in Heinlenville, died at the City Re- ceiving Hospital this afternoon about 2:30 o'clock from the effects of his wound. The dying man stated that on Monday evening he entered the house in front of which he was shot and gambled away a few dimes. He returned on Tuesday morning to retrieve his fortune and lost another dime. He was about to leaves the house when several Chinamen crowded about him and a general row was started. The man, he allered, pushed bim into the street and Ah Sing grabbed him in hisarms and held him. Hong Quong, a young Chinaman, he said, cried out to Ung Gong, who was standing near by, to shoot him. Ung Gong, in compliance, fired the fatal shot. He stoutly maintained that he knew of no reason for the shooting. Wah subscribed to the statement as read to him. Ung Gong, the Chinaman | accused by Ah Wah of doing the shooting, is still at large. ZioE Bt Vet SANTA BARBARA QUARREL Supervisorial District Boundary Changes Arouse 3 Furor. SANTA BARBARA, Car, Oct. 7.—A lively tilt occurred to-day in the County Supervisors’ chambers over the recent change made by that body in the boun- daries of the supervisorial district, by which the Second District, comprising | the city of Santa Barbara, received a big slice from the Third District, including that populouns settlement known as Hope precinct. A petition signed by many citi- zens was presented to the board, protest- ing against this change, and it has been openly charged that the division was made for the express purnose of securing Edward de la Cuesta’s re-election from the Third District. The petition to restore the former di- vision lines of the district received little attention from the board bevend an ap- peal to District Attorney Oglesby to as- certain whether its action in the matter had been legal. Mr. Oglesby’s opinion sustained this action, and here the matter rests for the present, but Attorney Butcher, speaking for the petitioners, de- clares that the board has no jurisdiction in the matter, and that the question will be appealed to the courts before it will be abandoned, even if it has to be carried to the Supreme Court. INQUEST AT RUSEBURG. No One Blamed for the Greens Station Eailway Disaster. ROSEBURG, Or., Oct. 7.—The Cor- oner’s jury impaneled to investigate the circumstances of the collision between two engines at Greens station yesterday morning, by which three trainmen were killed and four badly injured, completed its labors to-day. Several trainmen were called as witnesses and a mass of evidence was taken. The jury spent hours in de- liverating, and then reported a verdict that the three trainmen lost their lives by accident. The jury’s verdict was received with much disfavor, in view of its mild tone. Part of the verdict states that the findings do not show any one to blame. The verdict says in conclusion that the southbound engine was running under or- ders; that the nortbbound engine haa a right to flag back, as there was no tele- graph station at that point, and it did comply with the regulations up to the straight track a mile and a half south of Greens station, which straight track they bad a right 10 run over unflagzed when It being daylight, they dropped down the straight track with the intention of flagging throngh the fog and around the s: curve. - —— Suicide Near San Jose. SAN JOSE, Car., Oct. 7.—Thomas B. Finley, a rancher, committed suicide at his home, nmear Madrone, this morning, by taking carbolic acid. Finley was about 40 years of age and unmarri He lived with _his mother and three brothers on the Dougherty-Randol ranch. His life was apparently happy and the tragedy was 8 great surprise to his friends and relatives. The Coroner’s inquest failed to throw any light on the air. e Los dngeles docialists Acquitted. LOS AN@ELES, Car., Oct. 7.—Socialist Higgins, recently arrested in Central Park here 1n company with Editor Wilkins and A.

Hazard’s Pavilion Tco Small to Seat the Many Who Would Hear Him. APPEALS TO SOBER SENSE. Hon. W. J. Hunsaker, a Life-Long Democrat, Presides Over the Meeting. 328 South Broaaway, Los ANGELEs, Cal, Oct. 7. One of the greatest and most enthusi- astic political meetings ever held in Southern California was that in Hazard’s Pavilion this evening, under the auspices of the Business Men's Sound Money League of Los Angeles. The chairman of the meeting was Hon. John W.J. Hun- saker, an able lawyer and life-long Demo- crat, but now in the ranks of those who believe ‘in protection, prosperity and an honest dollar. The great pavilion was packed with an eager and an attentive audience, composed of Los Angeles County’s most iatelligent citizens. The principal speech was delivered by Hon. Ben Butterworth of Ohio. General But- terworth fully sustained his reputation as an able, logical and eloquent orator. He held his great audience's closest attention for over two hours. General Butterworth was escorted from his botel to the pavilion by the Americus Club of Pasadena. The club formed at Temple and Main streeis at 7 o’clock and marched down Main to Winchester. Here General Butterworth joined it. The line of march was then up Fourth to Spring, on Spring to First, to Broadway. down Broadway to Fiftn and thence to the ivilion. The pavilion seats 5000 Eeople. ut it was far too small for the throngs which gathered to hear the General’s great speech. Chairman Hunsaker said: “One of the peculiar features of this campaign is that one who has always voted the Democratic ticket should be called ngcm to preside at a meeting to further the election of a Republican can- didate for President, but those with whom I have had life-long political association have taken up their carpet-bags and wlglked deliberately into the camp of-Pop- ulism. “‘There is no place for me in this cam- paign except to stand with the party which seeks touphold law and order in this country.” General Buatterworth said in part: “I have been in one State of the Union where the ladiesnot only have avoice buta vote also and I am unable to seé any good rea- son why the virgin and the mothershould not be as much entitled to vote as the man who lays claim to the privilege of rowdyism." The speaker then called attention to the function of government, saying: *“Itis not a proper function of government to feed and clothe those who can labor and donot. We all agree that prosperity has been banished from the country. Itis important to be consistent; it is far more important to be right. For some reason a business paralysis rests upon the country. 1n 1892, and prior to that time, peace, con- tentment and prosperity found a place upon every hearthstone in the country. There was not a man who attended his flock who wascomplaining; there was not a fruit-grower who was ‘complaining; there was not a wheat-raiser who was complaining. ' “Four years ago the Democracy said: ‘If you will trust us we will give you more prosperity.’ The people believed them and gave them the reins of governmeut. ‘What was the resuit? We have an object lesson. To-night all through the land able-bodied men are walking in desp: praying that the blight Democracy brought upon them may pass away. Just one year after the time we had resolved to shut the doors of industries against our- selves we discovered our mistake. We shall decide on the third day of Novem- ber for our weal or woe.” St NEED NOT REGISTER AGAIN. Opinion on Eligibility of Voters Who Re- moved to New Precincts in Certain Counties. UKIAH, Car, Oct. 7.—There having been some question raised regarding the construction of section 1094 of the Political Code relating to precinct registration, County Clerk Hale McGowan has secured an opinion of Hon. T. L. Carothers on the question at issue. From the position taken by this gentle- man it appears that there is no statutory challenge by which a voter may be pre- vented from voting from failure to change his registration, providing be shall have resided in the precinct in which he may desire to vote thirty days previous to elec- tion. Mr. Carothers, after quoting the section ie question, says: Iam of the opinion that in any event the above quoted provision of the Political Code only applies 10 counties or cities and counties where either a new registration is required before each genersl election, or where the Board of Supervisors has canceled the old reg- ister and ordered & new registration. Mendo- cino is not a county where the law requires a new registraticn previous to each general election, and the %oan‘l of Su sors did not cancel ihe old register and order a new registration. By a careful reading of the pro- vision of code quoted above one wiil readily observe tnat cnange of registration from one precinct to another by reason of re- moval of the voter is only necessary in case (as far as Mendocino County is concerned) s new registration of the electors of the county has been had. There is nothing in the election laws of this State that provides that & voter who fails to have his registration tranferred from one .gn- cinet to another on account of removal shail not be entitied to vote by reason of such fail- ure, and the law does not make it a prerequis- ite to vote that such transfer is made. * * * It is, thereiore, my opinion that s voter is entitled to vote in Mendocino County at the coming election in the precinct where prior to Los Axceres Orrice or THE Cu.r.,} he has resided for thirty days the eiection, regardless as to whether or not he may have had his registration changed from one precingt to another by reason of removal, g ORATORY AT SANTA ANA, General Butterworth, Semator Perkins and Colonel Jackson Speak. SANTA ANA, Can, Oct. 7.—This has been a great Republican day for Orange County. Senator George C. Perkins and Colonel J. P. Jackson of San Francisco and the renowned Ben Butterworth of Ohio favored this city with their presence. Local Republicans received them in royal style, a committee of prominent citisens, with the Santa Ana band, meeting visitors at the depot this morning an escorting them to the hotel. Business bouses were gayly decorated and pictures of McKinley were conspicuous in a num- Mi:'lg. o"‘:l::k parade formed to a escort speakers to the open-air stand east of the county offices, where the meeting was held. Two bands were inattendance. The escort consisted of about 100 members of the Union Veterans’ Patriotic League and 300 members of the Santa Ana, Tastin ana Orange MecKinley citbs. The audience which 'mbled” to hear the arguments numbered about 2000. Jobn W. Ballard, candidate for Superior Judge, officiated as chairman, and first introduced General Butterwortn, who was received with great applause. He spoke for an hour and a half, and although pain- fully out of -voice made a forcible speech, comfining himself principally to. tariff, His argnments for protection were logical and convincing and illustrated with ha- morous and effective comparisons. Referring to_silver, he said he was an ardent bimetallist, but that our statutes alone could not regulate the commercial price of any product. Therefore he was not in favor of free coinage except by in- ternational agreement, which tiie Repub- lican party was pledged to promote. He closed with a handsome tribute to Senator Perkins, and was given three hearty cheers. Senator Perkins delivered a short ad- dress, which was accorded close attention and frequent applause. The Senator and Colonel Jackson a!mke to-night to a large audience at French’s Opera-house. v A ') CONVERTS MADE AT SAN MATEQ. Samuel M. Shortridge Compares Democ- racy’s Failures With Republican Achievements. SAN MATEO, Car., Oct. 7.—The great- est Republican demonstration in the his- tory of San Mateo was that of thisevening. Samuel M. Shortridge and Rev. Anna Shaw were the principal speakers. Mr. Shortridge’s address was eloguent, clear and convincing, and was frequently inter- rupted by applause. He spoke of the Republican party’s achievements, comparing its glorious record with the miserable failure of the Democracy to guide the ship of state into anything but the bogs of bond issues and the quagmire of a National deficit. So clearly did he demonstrate the need of protection to the products of the Golden State and the benefits that would result trom the election of McKinley that after the meeting & number of old and tried Democrats announced openly that they would march to the polls under the pennons of the Canton statesman. Miss Shaw made an earnest appeal for the enfranchisement of her sex and her address met with the seemingly unani- mous approval of her hearers. The San Mateo McKinley Club and the ‘Woman Suffrage Club attended the meet- ingin a bocy. ETEr SRl SCHOONMARKER AT STOCKTON. Monster Gathering Addressed by the Eloguent Jerseyman. STOCKTON, CawL., Oct. 7.—The largest crowd that has assembled in Stockton during the present campaign gathered to- night on the vlaza to listen to the_address ot Hon. F. X, Schoonmaker of New Jer sey. Chairman T. M. Nelson of the County Central Committee introduced J. B. Gil{ an am})loya of the planing-mills, as chairman of the evening. Gill madea brief address, and called upon the follow- ing to act as vice-presidents ot the meet- ing: J. M. Welsh, George Langridge, Wil- liam lnelis, Judge Ansel Smith, W. Elliott, Lafayette Funck, Judge C. P. Ren- don, J. 8. Moulton, Andrew Simpson, D. Rothenbush, Otto Grunsky, Joe Gianeli, L. M¢Call, J. B. Paris, William Hinthorn, C. R. Dodge, William Whipple, John Christman, F. H. West, Watson C. Green, J. A. Todd and A. T. Plummer. Before_the meeting was called to order the McKinley Clab (200 strong) paraded the streets, carrying torches above red um- brellas. Many of the leading men of the town are members the club and all turned out in the p: e, 4 Long before the speaker arrived the space in front of the rostrum was packed, | fully 2000 people being out to hear the ad- vocate of protection and sound money. His plea for protection was the best ever heard here,#and he was frequently ap- plauded. The crowd was an earnest one, and during the two hours that the Jersey- man addressed them it gave him the closest attention. No Democratic meet- ing has brought out so large or so intelli- gent an audience. RED BLUFF RALLX. Masterly Address Delivered by General Chipman. RED BLUFF, CaL, Oct. 7.—A large audience packed the Pavilion to-mght to listen to addresses by General N. P. Chipman and Frank W. Smith of Red- ding. Dr. G. W. Westlake was introduced as president of the evening and delivered an address of twenty minutes’ duration, after which he introduced General Chip- man, " The general delivered one of the most logical speeches heard here this season. He read copious extracts from the Con- gressional Record, showing that tre alleged *“crime of 1873"" was discussed fully and was thoroughly understooa at the time the act was passed. He intro- duced a novel feature by baving printed in large letters tabies, by which he illus- trated his remarks, thus putting the statis. tics before his hearers in a way visible to the eye and easily remembe: After General Chipman bad finished his masterful argument, Frank W. Smith of Redding made a short speech which was enthusiasticall received. With three cheers for McKinley and prosperity, the audience dispersed with a much better Jknowledge of the subject than is their usual portion after Learing a campaign speech. L e KELLY AT LOS GATOs. The Democratic Nominee REeplies to the Examiner. LOS GATOS, Cax., Oct. 7.—Hon. Joseph P. Kelly of San Francisco, Democratic nominee for Congress in the Fifth Dis- trict, and Hon. W. D. Grady of Fresno, spoke in Masonic Hall last evening to a large audience. Mr. Kelly’s remarks were mainly di- rected against the San Francisco Exam- aminer, which paper, he declared, was guilty of the grossest ill treatment of him as a Democratic nominee. The spesker told his audience that he would attack that paper and its proprietors at a meet- ing to be held in Metropolitan Hall, San Frani . next Thursday evening, when he would turn on the X rays on its black- mailing methods and the character of its proprietors. Kelly closed his speech with an ;p hlo lg; Dax;locml-ic voters to stand by the rm of the party. Mr. Grady &ll‘lowed with a talk on free- silver coinage and the fallacies of the Re- publican party according to Democratic views. STOCKTON, Carn., Oct. 7.—A discovery was made yesterday which startled the members of the American Protective As- sociation. It was that the name of Wil- liam Henr;fl?rlnl. the Non-Partisan American tective n_candi- date for the Assembly from the Twenty- sixth District, was not on th:nsmt ter of San Joaquin County, hence the gentleman was not eligible _to the ticket. Itissaid that Briggs wasone of those who objected strenuously to the :unty utting the voters to the !xp!;u prin a new great register, and for that reason he refused to have himself re- T R ssembly, and have a law pre- vent whas he considered reckless gance. g Summeriand Republicans. SUMMERLAND, Car., Oct. 7.—An en- thusiastic rally of Republiccns was held bere last ht. Tne orators were J. J. Boyce, State Senatorial candidate in this district, and Charles Barbara atworney. FUSIONISTS WiLL RESORT TOLAW Still Seek to Gronp Two Sets of Electors Unde : One Heacing. Secretary of State B.own to Be Served With a Writ of Mandamus. MARION DE VRIES' PLIGHT. Must Go Upon the Ticket as the Nominee of Independent Populists. ? SACRAMENTO, CaArn, Oct. 7.—From present appearances the outlook for fusion between the Democratic and Popuiist parties, in as far as the Presidential elec- tors are concernea, is becoming gloomy. That this fact is evident to the leaders of these parties1s evidenced by the efforts they are putting forth to compel Secretary of State Lewis H. Brown to certify to their chosen candidates under a sipgle group, which woula probably be headed, should they succeed in their designs, “People’s Party electors; Democratic electors.” To accomplish this aim proceedings will be commenced before the Subreme Court against the Secretary of State immedi- ately, ‘to attempt to compel him to so group the two parties’ electors; and it is claimed that the silver branch of the Democratic party will attempt to enjoin the Becretary of State from certifying to the nomination of etectors of the gold branch, which are grouped under the head of “National Democrats.” A writ of mandate will be served on the Secretary of State to compel him to place the name of Marion de Vries on the Con- gressional ticket as nominee of the Peo- ple’s party instead of the Independent Populist. Should the leaders who have this matter in hand fail in their endeavors, Secretarv of State Brown will certify to Presidential electors under the following heads: Republican electors—Irving M. Scott, Dun- can E McKinlay, George M. Francis, Julius ing, Howell A. Poweil, Josenh S. Spear Ix, Claos Spreckels, Elwood’ Cooper, Thomas lint, People’s party electors—J. V. Webster, Daniel McKay, J. W. Martin, 8. L. Aliard, Jo Hamil- ton, D. T. Fowler, Willlam Craig, M. R. Mer- rits, C. Thresher. Democratic electors—J. W. Martin, Jo Ham- ilten, 8. I. Allard, C, W. Thresher, William Craig, D. T. Fowler, M. R. Merritt, J. V. Web- ster, Daniel Webster, Daniel McKay. Prohibition electors—W. R. Ggoawin, Stephen Bowers, B. F. Taylor, Elam Biggs, Dr. P. Mc- H. H. Luse, Robert Thompson, M. J. , R. H. Young. National Democratic electors—Clay W, Tay- lor, Thomas B. Bond, James K. O'Brien, John nfeld, Jeremiah Lynech, Cbarles Ander- son, John Roth, Robert Y. Haynes, L. B. Hakes. Socislist Labor electors—Emil Liess, Lemiel D. Dibble. National electors—John Bidyell, Benfiy French, F. W. Hooper, R. F. Burns, W. H. Bone, F. Hilton, William Kelly, Jesse Yarnell, J. M. Glass. Secretary of State Brown said to-night: *1 was called up by telephone this after- neon by Chairman Alford of the Demo- cratic State Central Committee, who asked me if | intended to group the fusion party electors under one heading, insteaa of two, I answerea ‘No,’ that as two con- ventions had been held and two separate certificates filed, I wou!d be obliged to so certify. He inquired if I intended to in- clude the name of the National Demo- cratic electors on the ticket, and I said I did. He asked mé if Marion de Vries' name would be placed on the Congres- sional ticket as nominee of the People’s party. “I answered in the negative, asit had been presented after the time provided for in the Political Code, and said that I was the recipient of a certificate presented to me in the form of a tion under the name ‘Independent Populista.’ This is on fileand will be certified by me unless prevented by a decision of the Supreme Court. *‘Cbairman Alford then informed me that it was their intention to mandamus me, and inquired If I would come to the city for the purpose of acknowledging the service of papers. I was obliged by my office duties to refuse his request, and he informed me that the papers would be for- warded to-night by messenger. “In my opinion there are but two pos- sible ways in which fusion can be accom- plished, and that is by one party resigning its individuality and combining its dele- gates under the other party head, having the number of delegates from each faction understood between themselves, or else for the Democrats to group but five dele- ates under their party heading ana the gonuflnl to group four delegates under their party head. Grouped as they are, the same names on separate tickets, I know of no law which would authorize county clerks to add the individual votes together, as there might be different ind:- viduals of similar names under every party grotp, and shouid there be four different John Jones it certainly would not be right to give to one John Jones the vote cast for the other three. “Fusion is certainly a very perplexing question, and the more Istudy it the more complex it becomes.” ¥ Up to midnight no messenger had ar- rived in this city with mandamus papers to be served on the Secretary of State, who waited in his office until that hour and then retired to his residence.

It is common knowledge with every one that physicians advise the discontinuance of both tea and coffee when a person is sick, particularly when the digestive ma- chinery is affected. Any person with a slight kncwledge of chemistry can make the following cxperiments, securing the results as given. Coagulated ezg albu- men when mixed with artificial gastric juices will be practically entirely digested in eight hours. When tea is added during the process of digestion 66 j er cent of albumen will be digested, leaving 34 per cent undigested, while if a decoction of coffee is mixed with the albumen the resuits will be but 61 per cent digested and 39 per cent undi- gested. This means one thing, and the experiment speaks that fact plainly. When tea or coffee is taken into the hu- man stomach they very seriously inter- fere with the naturat and healthiul opera- tion. ‘Where a person has an exceedingly powerful digestive apparatus he can stand this abuse for a time, but it 1s sure to tell sooner or later., In addition to the above it may be said that any ordinary analytical chemist can analyze coffee and snow the poisonous alkaloids of much the same character as found in strychnine, whisky, tobacco and morphine. These poisons have a direct effect upon the liver, and a furred tongue, costive bowels, bad skin and various other indications of approaching sickness are l?pll’em. These facts have been recog- nized by physicians for many years, but it is difficult to induce people to leave off their habits even when those habits are shown to be injurious and to shorten the |, existence of the human body. The manager of La Vita Inn, a health institution at Battie Creek, Mich., made a large number of experiments in the direc- tion of a food drink that would be at once nourishing, palatable and fragrant, with- out any of the poisonous or injurious properties. His experiments were con- fined to compounding and arranging products of various cereals or grains, such as were intended by nature for man’s sub- sistence. Being in a position to note the effect of the beverage upon weak stomachs, and patients who needed the most nourishing food and drink that could be obtained, his ex- periments were conducted unders what would probably be considered the most favorable circumstances. After continued use and the most positive evidence of the healthful properties of the food-drink, pa- tients who had been healed wished to con- tinue the use of the cereal drink after their return to their homes, and others made demand for it. 1In order to supply this demand and the ublic generally, the Postum Cereal Co., f‘imiwd, was formed. All people who drink coffee and tea do not care to_discon- tinue their use, although quite satisfied of their hurtful properties. There are enough people, however, in America who hold their health in hfgh enough esteem to be willing to give a little attention to their food and drink. There is no habit the creature acquires which produces so much real enjoyment as the old-fashioned habit of being thoroughly well. When a man can inhale adeep breath of pure air and feel that every part of the machinery of the human body is working perfectly, the feeling of comfort produces a deep sense of easy content and thankfulness to the Creator for the mere privilege of living. Postum is a thoroughly healthiul focd drink. Itcan be taken at each meal by all members of the family, including the children. It quickly establishes itself as an important part of the meal, and when left out one misses the fragrant odor, the comforting flayor-and the health-giving properties. 11b. coffee (30 cents) zives 40 to 45 cups. | 1 package Postum (25 cents) gives 100 | cups. | About 3to1 in favor of Postum. | This item of economy is by no means the chief consideration.
