Affidavits Proving That Good Faith Was Kept With All There Was Nothing Yellow About Either the Paper or Its Circulation. In these days when yellow fakers | flourish in the fields of journalism and contest with legitimate newspapers the right to live there is so much fraud | committed in the name of journalistic enterprise that the public is often skep- tical and incredulous of the honesty of | any newspaper that undertakes the ac- complishment of an enterprise of more than ordinary magnitude. So many newspapers have at one time or another announced the publi- cation of some enormous edition, and Q. COPPER PLATE ENGRAVING. 227-220 #OST ST. then defaulted either in the issue of the stated number of copies, or else in the circulation of them. that all such edi- tions are now watched with suspicion. Even when the edition is issued by a paper of such high repute for honesty that no one doubts the fulfillment every promise made in the prospectus, there is always some faker or enemy in journalism ready to suggest the doubt. It has therefore become neces- sary for even the most worthy and honorable newspapers to give proof to the public of the absolute performance of every promise made in the issuing of editions of that kind. The Call rejoices that but few per- sons or papers have ever expressed a doubt that the New Era Edition of 350,- 000 coples was printed, published and circulated exactly as promised. This evidence of public confidence is grat- | ifying. Nevertheless we feel that some positive testimony of the per- formance of the promise should be given and therefore we publish the fol- lowing affidavits: We invite close scrutiny of the state- ments made: C. H. Crocker, general manager of the H. §. Crocker Company, certifies that his company made and delivered to The Call 354,500 covers for the New Era Edition. W. B. Hin- chliffe, foreman of the pressroom, cer- tifiles that he printed 354,500 copies of the edition and delivered them to the mailing department. W. N.

The matter under consideration grew out of a land deal in Los Angeles. E. J. Bryant, who was a well and favor- ably known real estate dealer in that city, was indicted for defrauding and cheating Harrlet E. Hoxie out of $0 on a land deal. According to the charge he induced her to part with her money by selling and assigning to her two promis- sory notes, made to him by Emma A. Lewis, together with a mortgage on two lots to secure the payment thereof. Bryant, in order to Induce the woman to property was good tillable land an value more than sufficient to cover the —_—mmm The Soft Glow of the Tea Rose is acquired by ladies who use Pozzonr's Courrexiox Powprr. Try it. ot | | of a combination of medicines | amount of the notes; and to satisfy her he took her out into the country and showed her two pieces of land, but the lots were not those described in the mort- gage, as afterward shown. In this lay the charge of obtaining money by false pretenses, for the woman took up the | notes and paid over the money. To the Indictment Bryant demurred, | and was sustained by the Superior Court, | | contending that the fraudulent represen- tation charged in the indictment related solely to the property, and did not come under the statute, as the mortgage was only a security for the payment of the note and it was not charged that the maker of the note was unable to pay the same or that the note had not been paid. The District Attorney appealed from the order suatalning the demurrer. The Su- preme Court did not sustain the lower | | court in its construction of the law. NO KNIFE USED! Mr. Bradenstein, 1912 Fillmore street, | states that he saw Dr. Chamley, T19 | Market street, remove and cure a can- cer of the whole breast on his sister- in-law without any pain. The lady weighed only 90 pounds, and did not lose 5 pounds during the whole treat- ment. She was confined three months later and had a healthy child.

The lovers of fistic art are now bus- | ily engaged in discussing the prospective meeting of the two heavy fellows, for | that event would appear to be an as- | sured fact judging from late develop- ments in that controversy. Although | Fitz is somewhat dilatory about entang- ling himsel? in another conflict with a man whom he has once defeated, still he no doubt will finally succumb to the ovefrtures of Corbett if for no other rea- son than that he will soon ‘“need the money,” and he can make more by this match than any other. It is more than probable that their war of words, In which they are now forcibly {ndulging, s but a preliminary to the more important battle that is to come. Who knows but this agitation between them is carried on for the purpose of creating interest In the affair and to assure its financlal success? Both men have their devoted admirers, | but it seems to be the consensus of opin- fon that our Jim will be the victor in the return engagement and thus redeem | his lost prestige. | _Professor Walter Watson, who is com- | petent to talk_on the subject, is most | emphatic ip his expression of opin- | ion that Corbett will win the next time and advances the theory that this should be the outcome because experience is the best teacher, and the defeated gladiator has thoroughly learned his sad lesson. In his Carson fight with Fitzstmmons Corbett was trained entirely too fine on account of too much hard work on the last two days of his training. He is inclined to be somewhat vain of his physical accom- plishments, and the day before the great struggle he aired them for the edification of some Eastern friends connected with the New York Athletic Club, and thus over-exerted himself to an alarming ex- tent. Again he overdid his outdoor exer- cise and fn that way left his Strength on the road instead of taking it in the ring with him. In his fight with Sharkey he made the grave mistake of not train. ing at all, and with Fitzsimmons he com- | mitted the opposite error of training too { much. It was a fatal proceeding in the second case and came very near being so Iln the first The consequence was that his blows lacked steam and he was un- | able to finish Fitz in the sixth round. as he would have done had he used bet- ter judgment in his training prepara- tlons. Another reason for his defeat can he ascribed to Corbett not sizing Fitz up properly. He labored under the impres- sion that the latter was a hard hitter but not particularly clever in the boxing line, and he. therefore. was exceedingly wary and cautious in the opening rounds He found out, however, very shortly, that he shouid guessed again and Jjust the other wa for he discovered that his antagonist developed extraordinary fistic ability as the rounds proceeded but his blows were not very powerful ones, and all but the one that d' the business were Ineffective, as Corbett's appearance after the contest Indicated. There seems to he abundant reason for believing now that Corbett {s aware of his | rival's deficiencies that he will, with wisdom born of experience, take ad age of the bitter sson he has learned. and it is plausible to suppose that he wiii be in the proper condition to make the ficht of his life, and be again proclaimed champion of the world.

Dittrich was formerly the bit and cocktall fame on Sutter street. | In 1880 the couple were divorced and the | custody of their minor child, Camille, | was vested in the maternal parent. In 1893 the divorced parties entered into a contract, under which Gobey was to have charge of the child’s education and bear all of the expenses of traveling, clothing, etc., until she should have reached her eighteenth year. At the ex- piration of that time Gobey agreed to restore Camille to her mother, free of expense, and for any failure to do so should be, under the contract, liable for $1000 as liquidated damages. The child became 18 years of age in September, 1832 Her father offered to allow her 'to return to her mother, but | the young lady had a mind of her own xpressly refused to go.

He holds the | contract was that the father should af- ford the facilities for the daughter to re- turn to her mother at the time stated | and could not be construed as uncondi- | tional. for to attempt to force the young lady to return to her mother would be to infringe upon the former's rights, she having attained her majority. There was no reason to suppose that the contract was alternative—to return the girl to her mother at the time specified or pay $1000. ———— Asthma, brornchitis, din's Sanitarium, 3 1 failed The executor of the cure guarant'd.

He was reduced to ashes along with the other evidences of civilization. Sud- denly he ceased to appear. Either the horse had quit dying, or a new use had been found for him. It was learned that the dogs out at the coursing track had been induced to regard him as edible, and that properly cooked he answered the purpose of soup, entree, roast and des- sert. But the owners of the dogs did not indorse this view, and one market for dead horse became stagnant. Yet the horse that had laid down the burden of life falled to appear at the ,old haunts. The experts of the dumps were puzzled. Among those whose love for Investiga- tion led them to look into this matter was a veterinary surgeon. Others might be deluded, but he knew that horses occa- slonally rested from therr labors. He as- certained a few things: When a horse hz ceased to be useful to the extent of giv- ing up the ghost, it is idle to suppose that he vanishes into’ thin air. He couldn't do it. No: the custom is to ship nim to Pet- aluma or some other point at which the chicken s the staff of life, and utilize him as feed. Before shipment he is cut to convenient size. After shipment he is cut to bits, and by the subtile scheme of na- rted into eggs and_broilers. tion arises, and here there shall be no attempt to answer whether an egg composed of the constitient parts of what was dead horse Is worthy the public Perhaps the spavined, swee- nied, wind-broken horse, the horse that lies down in harness and expires appear again in the form of eggs s Possibly the secret proces of nature may enable the tender chicken to burst from its shell untainted of the dead horse from which it sprang. Human judgment is weak and the human stom- ach is subject to qualms. Yet when hu- man judgment declares that horse meat, the same having become horse meat by malady. is not fit t m the nucleus of generations of s yet unborn, the human stomach indorses the verdict, and seems to have some excuse for being pos- itive about it e A Sovereign Remedy.
