Farm- ers and their wives with wagons filled | with native sons and daughters drove | in and mingled with those already on | the scene. e The good humor that prevailed be- came infectious in an incredibly short time. People arrived on the grounds al- most overcome from the exertions of yesterday, away short on sleep, raven- | ous and intent only on getting to the nearest table. Before they reached the dancing platform all their cares were forgotten, the after effects of yester- day vanished, and instead of com- plaints because they had to wait they found pleasure in standing around commenting on the activity of thelr more fortunate fellows at the tables, who, by the way, were altogether too busy to essay more than a facial con- tortion half hidden by a slab of juicy beef. Everybody was there at some perfod during the day—that is, everybody re- maining in San Jose, for although thou- sands have returned to their homes there are still many thousands here who will remain until to-morrow or Monday. Charlie Curry drove out with “Jimmy” Carroll, “Billy” Colum- bet and Justice Barry, but became sep- arated from the others and had a hard | time of it for a while.

FRENCH TAKE FASHODA, ON THE UPPER NILE Disastrous Setback to the British Victories Over the Fanatical . Khalifa. LONDON, Sept. 10.—The dramatic news received from Omdurman to-day, show- ing apparently that Fashoda, on the White Nile, about 400 miles north of Khartoum, has been occupied by a white force, causes the greatest sensation. As there seems little room to doubt that the troops occupying that place are French, this will prove a disastrous set- back to the British victories in the Nile and at once dispose of the questions of a British water way to the Upper Nule. Of course, it is possible the force at Fashoda may be British troops under Major McDonald, but this is most un- likely, as the latest news received from Uganda announced that McDonald had not left there at the end of May, and it is extremely improbable that McDonald's force could have covered the distance from Uganda to Fashoda, in this time, more especially as, so far as is known, he had only one small steel boat with which to navigate the Nile. Almost every one regards the stories of a French expedition under Major Mar- . : HALR ToN o BREAD. fast so the fun comes | n coming fast !

Zisinger, a well-known citizen. There are eight new cases at Taylors, Miss. The Jackson (Miss.) Board of Health to- night officially announced fatalities of yesterday. The victim was James Kil- gore. The board immediately placed the city in quarantine, and no passengers, baggage, freight or express will be per- mitted to leave Jackson for any point in Mississippi. Every precaution is being taken to prevent a spread of the disease. The Louisiana State Board of Health gives the following as the status of yel- low fever epidemic of this year: Frank- lin—Total cases, 26; deaths, 20; under treatment, 14; all doing well.

San Francisco Parlor No. 49 gave a | ball this evening. The hall was crowded and dancing was enjoyed until a late hour. This parlor will attend the clambake to-morrow and return home in the evening. | Sequoia Parlor is entertaining its friends with a dance.

They were‘ formally presented to the Spanish com- | missioners, General Ortega, Senor Val- | lerino, brigadier of marines, and Senor | Aguila, Auditor of War. The presenta- | tion was made by Captain General Ma- | clas. Both eommissions then retired to the spacious room. The Spanish commissioners were most courteous.

ADVERTISEMENTS. It isn’t much trouble for a really healthy man to be good humored. Jollity and exhuberant health are a pro- verbial combination. The hearty man who is always latighing doesn’t have any trouble with his digestion. It has been said that laughing makes people healthy. The truth is that health makes people laugh. It is impossible to estimate the tre. mendous influence of health upon human character. A man with a headache will not be in a happy, contented frame of mind. A man who suffers from a weak stomach and an impaired digestion will sit and grumble through the best meal ever Ereparcd. A bilious man who is not a ore, is deserving of a place in a museum, A nervous man who is not petulent and fault-finding is a curiosity. All these con- ditions lead to grave diseases, when the victim becomes not only disagreeable, but dependent as well. A wise wife will real- ize that while the old saying that a ‘‘man’s heart is in his stomach,” is not literally true, it is a fact that his stomach sweetens or sours his character according as it is healthy or unhealthy. Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery is the best of medicines for the conditions described. It makes the weak stomach strong, the impaired digestion perfect, invigorates the liver, purifies and enriches the blood and tones the nerves. It tears down half-dead, inert tissues and replaces them with the firm muscular tissues of health. It builds new and healthy nerve fibres and brain cells, It dissipates nervousness and melancholy and imparts mental elasticity and courage, It is the best of all known medicines for nervous disorders, “Through your skillful treatment I am once ndy, n Co.. g e and gmlmot find relief until I eomm’ taking your ‘ Golden Medical Discovery,’ T suf- fered with constipation end torpidity of liver ’W ch ru&:’tedol'_n lrrlbh‘.tgzln of?leh.xmdlnfl and mmatiou e er, bot ) Th medt T found great relief, ADVERTISEMENTS.
