A dull, aching pain at the lower part of the back and a sensation of little rills of heat, or chills running down the spine, are symptoms of general womb derangement. \ if these symptoms are not accompa~ ied by leucor- rheea, they are, precursors of that weakness. 1t is worse than folly to neglect these symp- toms. Any wo- man of com- ) mon sense will take steps to cure herself. She will realize that her generative system is in need of help, and ~ that a good restorative medicine is a posi necessity. It must bea medi- cine with specific virtues. Asa friend, a woman friend, let me advise the use of Lydia E Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. If your case has progressed so that a troublesome discharge is already es- tablished, do not delay, take the Veg- etable Compound at once, so as to tone up your whole nervous system; you can get it at any reliable drug store. You ought also to use a local applica- tion, or else the corrosive discharge will set up an inflammation and hard- ening of the parts. Mrs. Pinkham's Sanative Wash is put up in packets at 85 cents each. To reiieve this painful eondition this Sanative Wash is worth its weight in geld.q_ Mes.GEORGE W. SzEPARD, Watervliet, N.

ACTIVITY AMONG SHIP-BUILDERS, Much Demand for Lumber Schooners, and New Ones Building, LARGE OXDERS STEADILY CONING IN. Increased Foreign Trade Has Been the Means of Reopening Our Shipyards, To say that the ship-building industry on this coast is in a prosperous condition is putting the fact mildly. The statement that it was booming would probably be nearer the truth. On every hand theship- yards, both large and small, are taxed to the imit of their capacity. And the work that is now being acne is not all ihere is to tell. There is more tocome. New con- tracts are coming in, and the builders without exception report a pro:perous condition of affairs with every indication of a wonderful revival in the ship-building industry. Of course, the building of ships makes work for the engine-builders and machin- ists. But engine-building is experiencing a boom independent of local ship-bui Iding. The superiority of American marine ma- chinery over that of foreign manufacture is becoming recognized abroad, and or- ders waich formerly went to European manufacturers are now coming to the United States, and, what is of more inter- est locally, to San Francisco. The Japanese seem to have come to the conclusion that American-built ships are equal to any in the world, and one of the panies has evidently become convinced that we bnild the best engines in the world. The Tokio Navigation Company, which owns and operates a large number of launches and small craft in Asiaiic waters, formerly equipped all their boats with engines and machinery of English and German manufacture. Not long azo they consented to give Amarican engines a trial, and ordered s2ver:l of the Union | Gas Engine Company ol this city. They must bave given satisfaction, for the num- { ber was increased, and the company now bave eleven engines wtich were made in | San Francisco in their service. A few | ment that the American engines and ma- | chinery had been tound so much superior | to those of English and German manu- facture that the company had dec ded to remove all the latter from the boats and substitute machinery made in the United States. In addition to the engines being built for the Japanese company the Union Gas Engine Company is constructing a 50- horsepower engine to be placed in a45-ioot launch being built by George W. Kneass for G. W. McNear of the Port Costa Flour Company. The launch is expected to be one of the speediest on the bay. The com- pany Isalso building a 50-horsepower en- gine to be placed in a 50-foot launch built by the San Francisco Launch Company, at North Beach, for James Kitterman, and a 60-horsepower engine to go in a schooner owned by W. A. Ryan & Co. The Fulton Iron Works are unusually busy at present and are bnilding three schooners for the Jumber trade, besides a fishing schooner. The lumber schooners are: One forJ. S. Kimball & Co., to be 190 feet over all; one tor Robert Dollar, to be 160 feet over all, and one 155 feet in length forJ. R. Hannify. The fishing schooner is being built for A. Paladiniand isto be equipped with compound condensing en- | gines. The company's shipyara at Harbor Visw has lately been planked and large cranes erected for the handiing of heavy masses of iron and steel. The company is also building a new boat for the Cali. fornia Navigation Company, to be used on the bay and Stockton route. The con. | tract calls for a speed of twenty knots an hour. The Risdon Iron Works is constructing new b iilers for the tug Alerc and the river steamer Mary Garratt. Hall Brothers, whose shipyard 1s lo- cated at Port Blakeley, on Puget Sound, have launched recently two large schoon- ers, which are to be used in the lumber trade, and have now a four-master on the ways nearly ready to be put into the water. The gold discoveries ir; Alaska and the rush for the north occasioned thereby have been to a certain extent a factor in in- creasing the demand for boats on this coast; but the improved condition of | foreign as well as domestic trade must be held responsible for the present activity in the ship-building industry. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE, Many Matters of Importance Now Under Consideration. A meeting of the board of trustees of the Chamber of Commerce preliminary to the quarterly meeting of the entire body was held yesterday afternoon, A letter was read from George W. Mc- Near and Girvin & Eyre, insurance agents, asking for its services 10 obtain promptly a ruling from the proper officials of Great Britain on the act of Par- liament entitled the foreign prison- made short title act, 1897, and the bear- ing it may have on grain exported to the United Kingdom in prison-made sacks as Wrappers or coniainers, The committee of internal trade and improvement submittea a report with reference 1o the capacity of the State to furnish steam for building purposes. A letter was read from W, B. Walter, chair- man of the Yokohama Chamber of Com- merce, in which he informed the San Fraucisco Chamber of Commerce that the Japanese Government would, at the next meeting of the Diet, which will be held in December next, report a bill to abolish the vounty to Japanese direct exporters of raw silk. These and other matters of minor im- rnnnnce were referred to the next meet- ng. ———————— Mrs. Sanford’s Will to Be Contested. Charles E.

The British Ships Lancing, Fails of Halladalz and Blackbrazs Were Cast Off by the Tugs About They Are All Bound for Great Britain, and It Will Be a Nip and Tuck Race Between Them From Herz to the Channel, GRAIN VESSELS SPEEDING HOME, Six Ships Contesting for the Honor of Reaching Eng- land First. Arrival of the French Cruiser Duguay Trouin From Honolulu, Captain Howland of the Ship Tnvin- | cible Stricken With Paralysis | at Sea. The rush of wheat to Europe still con- tinues. Over sixty grain-laden vessels have left here during the past two months, | | six of which sailed during the last few | days and six more are ready for a start. The Travancore, F. S. Ciampa and Loch Carron have a good startof the Black: braes, Lancing and Fails of Halladale, but the chances are that one of the last named trio will get in first. The k. S, | Ciampa ana Loch Carron left here on the | 9th inst. and the Travancore on the 1ith | inst. for Queenstown. The Blackbraes for | Liverpool, Lancing for London and Falls | of Halladale for Queenstown all got under | | way within five minutes of each other | | vesterday. All six vessels should make a | close race of it across the Atlantic. | The Lancing was taken out by Captai | Chapman, Captain Hatfield remaining | here to assume the position of suverin- | tendent of construction of the new Alaska- Yukon Transportation Company. This | will be Captain Chapman’s first voyage as master, he having received his certificate | in Victoria, B. C., a few weeks since. Mrs. Hatfield and her dangnter, Mrs. Chapman, will remain in San Francisco with Captain | Hattield. The British ship Toxteth was also towed to sea yesterday. Bhe will sail to Puget Sound and will probably load wheat at | Tacoma. The Occidental and Oriental Steamship Company’s Doric sailed for Japan and China yesterday. Among the cabin pas- sengers were Hon. J. Sloat Fassett of New York and his son, Newton C. Fassett, A. P. Hotaling, the well-known merchant, and his son, F. C. Hotaling, ail for China and 8ir T. Fray, Bishop J. McKim an Miss Minnie Hennessey, daughter of Purser Hennessey, for Yokobama, The Deric also carried away 259 Chiness for Hongkong. The French cruiser Duguay Trouin ar- nived in port yesiteraay. She was here about a year ago, and after a stayofa couple of weeks proceeded to Tahiti. The officers of the warship are: Captain, Jean Fort; first lieutenant, H. Pucibet; lie tenants—R. Dapuy-Fromy, Joseph Guttig- sell, Rene Ferrier, Fernaud Fossey, George MacGuckin de Hane and Joseph Alie- mand; fl:et engineer, Pierre Legoux; fleet paymaster, Gustave Rauch; fleet { surgeon, Joseph Labaden: ensigns— George O’ Neill, Pierre Mondot, Emmanuel Chiron du Brossay, Marie Brossier, Nich- | olas Benoit, Octave Brousse, Charles Le Camus, Camilie Cholet. The Duguay Trouin made the run from | | Honoluln 1n ten days. She registers 3000 tons, 4000 horsepower, and her speed is | given as 15)¢ knots. She has 312 of a crew and wiil recain here a fortnight, then proceeding to Panama. ! A private dispatch to the Merchants’ | Exchange states that the Briush ship Kate Thomas, irom Newcastle, N. 8, W., for San Francisco, has put into Sydney, N. 8. W., partly dismasted. The vessel was only a few days out when the storm that did the damage was encountered. The Harbor Cowmissioners have de- cided to advertise for bids for a clock to be placed in the tower of the new ferry | depot. The dial is to be a very handsome affair and the mxchinzry the very best sample of the clockmaker’s skill. Trhe American ship Invincible arrived from Cape Spencer yesterday with 37,472 cases of salmon for the Alaska Packers’ Association. When the vessel was a few days out Captain Howland was stricken with paralysis and Chief Officer Chipper brought the vessel into port. The captain was brought ashore in the Jaunch Amy as | soon as the Invincible came to an anchor and was taken to his home. COLONEL KEPPEL'S FAREWELL. An Entertaining Meeting Outlined to Bid Him Good-By. The leader of the Pacific Coast division of the Balvation Army will say his last words to the public in Metropolitan Hall to-night previous to his starting to hiy new appointment as assistant chief secre- tary for the United States at headquarters in New York. A panoramaof the colonel’s achievements will be presented on the platform in all the different branches of the army work since his arrival, and the pioneers will share the honors. The out- riders will he presented and their work told. These are self-denving officers that visit isolated camps of miners and woods- men that are far away from any religious services, The story of the Men's Sheiter will be told, where the hungry and home- less are cared for and helped to obtain situations. The Women’s Shelter wiil be described, and the rescue of despairing unfortunates who = have been led back again to paths of honor and respect. The Children’s Home, t0o, has accomplished good work, and many a little waif bas re- ceived a mother’s care. The colonel saw the necessity for s Home of Rest; it was secured, and in its peaceful surroundings and neat rooms the exhausted ones are cared for and nursed back to health and strength again. The story of the pur. chase of the home will be told and its ofticers shown. —_—————— { | The first hearin i 18:h inst 8 will be had on the Irjured by ¥alling Downstairs. Mrs. Mary Louthan by her attorneys, Coo gan & Kabn, hassued David Hewes and Wil- liam Patterson for $25,000 on account of per- sonal injuries caused by falling downs tairs in a house owned by Hewes and rented to the First Progressive Spiritual Church, whose services she attended. Patlerson isa curpen- ter and it is alleged that his carelersness con- tributed to the cause of the docament. AFTER WARDEN HALE, Manufacturers Protest Against His De- stroying Convict Marks on Bags. When Warden Hale of the State prison at 8an Quentin asked of the Directors per- mission to discontinue making a di tinctive mark or stripe in the convict- made grain bags he was not aware that he was sharpening a stick for himself, one that might be a source ot irritation in the very near future. His purpose in mak- ing this request was to prevent the British customs officers from being able to distinguish between convict-made bags and those made by free labor. The English Parliament recently passed a law probibit- ing the importation of ail kinds of goods made by convicts into that country and Warden Hale, knowing that a large amount of California grain is shipped in the sacks made by the State’s convicts, wished to get around this law by remov- ing all distinctive marks, The Manufacturers and Producers’ As- sociation, which 1s at nresent locking horns with the Prison Direciors on an- other matter, will take up this and make things as unpleasant as possible for those who have anv hand in this so-called ‘‘de- ception.” Manager Oscar Lewis says that he will bring tne request of the Warden nd the permission of the Directors before he next meeting of the association and ive it as mucn publicity as possible. In discussing the matter Mr. Lewis said: “1 certainly shall bring the case to the attention of the board at the next meet- ing. It seemsa little strange that the Warden of a place where convicts are confined sbould be the person 1o suggest a method by whick smuggling into an- other country could be accomplished. Yet this is exactly what he is proposing in order toget rid of his convict-made goods. In other words he proposes to de- Liberately violaie & law of a friendly coun- try, and himself an cfficial whose duty it |is to have the custody of law-breakers, Americans shonid respect the laws of Engiand if we wish England to respect our laws."’ ‘GRAND LODGE OF MASONS Assemblage of the Representa- tives in the Masonic Temple of This City. Presentation of the Address of the Grand Master and Reports of Grand Officers, The Grand Lodge of Masons of the State of California convened yesterday morning at 10 o’clock in the Masonic Temple, and was called to order by Grand Master T.W. Lucas. There were present all the grand officers and nearly 400 representatives. Asat the session of the previous year, there were many comparatively young men among the representatives. After the presentation of the report of the committee on credentials, the grand master presented his annual address, which was referred to a special committee of five. The address, which is a review of the work of the past year, shows that, as has already been announced in Tre Cavrr, there has been a flattering increase in membership and an increase of six loages in this State. At the afternoon session the report of Grand Secretary George Johnson was pre- sented and referred to the same committee having charge of the grand master’s, The report of Grand Treasurer Edward Coleman was referred to the finance com- mittee. The report of Grand Lecturer F. H, Ed- wards was referred to a committee of five district inspectors. The address of Grand Orator F. E. Ba- ker was made thespecial order for 2 o'clock this afternoon. At 4 o'clock the Grand Lodge was ad- journed until 10 o’clock thts morning. In the evening Oriental Lodge appeared before the Grand Lodge and exemplified the conferring of the second degree, —_—— Home-Made Elevators.

A Deficit That Was Chestnutty Magnified Tenfold and Called News. “Examiner” Enterprise That Made the Paper the Butt of the Municipal Employes. Yellow journalism, as exemplified by the Examiner, was the laughing-stock of | larly asked that it should be given. *‘Last the City Hall yesterday as a result of the fake story regarding the deficit in the city funds, published yesterday morning. The Examiner, always behind with City Hall news, discovered late in the after- noon that Auditor Broderick had filed a financial report with the Board of Super- visors. Immediately there was a scare in the office of the vellow journal, reporters were “hurled into hacks,” and as a reault a long and totally inaccurate story re- garding city finances was published. The news was given to Examiner read- ers that the “Auditor filed nis annual re- port yesterday,” and in giaring headlines it was set forth to Examiner readers that a deficit of $720,836 30 bad been aiscovered in the city treasury. A column of rigures, ostensibly from a recent product of the Auditor’s office, were published to sup- port the head ines. The facts of the matter are these: In June last Auditor Broderick made up the fizures of his annual statement, show- ing the condition of the city’'s finances, and the same were published in THE CaLL at the time. It was evdert that there was to be a deticit of about $79,000, and in order to save the merchanis who had furnished the city with supplies the Audi- tor decided to carry over into the new fiscal year the salaries of city empioyes, amounting to $160000. This created a surplus of nearly $80,000. In order to guard against a deficit the heads of departments met and talked over the situation and presented their case to the Supervisors. In the new tax levy the shortage was provided for. Four weeks ago the Auditor's annual statement, containing nothing but what had already been pubiished, was banded to the Supervisors. The statement that was filed on Moa- day was the Auditor’s quarterly state- ment, containing nothing conclusive and showing no deficit of any kind. There was no annnal s:atement, there was no deficit of $720,856 31, there was nothing but the lurid imagination and exaggeration of yellow journalism, — ENCOURAGING REPORT. The Work of the Young Men’s Christian Association., One of the most popular places in this city is the building of the Young Men’s Christian Association, at the northeast corner of Mason and Ellis streets. Its fall and winter work for the sixtcenth consecutive season opened this week with a very large attendance. Nearly 600 young men were present ihe opening exercises.

This Season's Buds and Debutantes Very Much Disappointed at the News. Unless some unforeseen aid come for- ward the annual Mardi Gras ball given by the San Francisco Art Association isa thing of the past. Lack of patronage is the principal cause—society did not take the wnterest in 1t that 1t should, and con- sequently it is to die an early death. Year belore last only 20 cents was cleared and this last year only $20, this leaving praciically nothing in the treas- ury for the association, for whose benefit the ball was suprosed to have been given. Horace G. Platt, president of the asso- ciation, when seen by a CALL reporter yesterday, said: “The chances are 1010l against the ball. The ladies who were by their own request appointed membars of the reception committee last year did not seem to grasp the responsibilities of their position. Of the twenty who were ex- pected to serve on that committee only | two made their appearance. For some | unknown reason a report was circulated around that a Mardi Gras ball was not the place for a bud or debutantes, and so many of them stayed away. While there | were many present, still some of them that should have been there did not | come, and so tpoiled one of the prettiest | affairs of the season.’” Mr. Platt seemed rather disgusted with | it all, and said that he did not see why \; the association should go to the trouble to give an expensive ball if it was not going to be patronized by those who particu- year the board of directors did not want to have 1t,”" he said, ‘‘but I wrestied withs them successfully, only to have the thing | almost a fallure after all. This year I | shall do not.ing for it at all, and I think | that the majority of the boara feel the | same way about it.”’ 1 Although the ball does not take place | until just before lent each year, it hu‘i always been the most discussed function | of the season. So this year the buds and | debutantes are very much worried and disappointed about the report that the | Mardi Gras, in San Francisco at least, is | a thing of the past. The affuir has aivays | been such a pretty one that it is consid- | ered a shame 10 have it stop because of the lack of patronage.
