AT THE STATE FAIR. Attendance in the Big Pavilion Con- tinues Large. SACRAMENTO, Sept. 16.—To-night, t but State nd another immense crowd distributed in the galleries and through the mazes xhibits at the fon. The weather was as soft and calm as a night in mid- summer, and the women were out in their lizhtest fabrics, lending to the scene at the pavillon a charm indescribably ef- fective. This afternoon the committee of gave a gold medal to Mrs. E. Shi the best display of fruits, pr ete, Mrs, Shields has not bee scouraged by the abandonment of the county exhiblt feature, but has made a display of prod- ucte of her orchard and farm which stands as an el t representation of what this county can grow. Mrs. Shields was one of the representatives of Sacra- e e e one awards ADVERTISEMENTS. If life is worth \ baving it is worth 7 taking care of. Recklessness does our work or our pleasure. When people read of a young ‘'man who has been killed while perform- less feat on a toboggan or at ardous sport, their sympath is mixed witl surprise that any human being should thus_care- lessly risk life. There are thou- T sands of men who are recklessly risking their lives while they go about their common every-day avoca- tions. They over-work, they do not take sufficient time from business or labor to eat or sleep or rest, or to care for their health. Outraged nature throws out danger signals, to which they pay no heed. They suffer from bilious or nervous disorders, from sick headacie, giddiness, drowsiness, cold chills, flushings of heat, shortness of breath, blotches on the skin, loss of ap- petite, uncomfortable sensations in the stomach after meals, loss of sleep, lassi- tude and trembling sensations. These are the advance symptoms of serious and fatal maladies. Al disorders of this nature are cured Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It restores the lost appetite, gives sound and refreshing sleep, makes the digestion per- fect, the liver active. It purifies the blood and makes it rich with the life-giving ele- ments of the food. It is the great blood- maker and flesh-builder. It makes the body active and the brain keen. It is the best of nerve tonics. Thousands have testified to its merits. No honest dealer will urge upon you a substitute for the little extra profit it may afford. The man or woman who neglects consti- pation is gathering in the system a store of disorders that will culminate in some serious and possibly fatal malady. Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets are a safe, sure, :reedy and permanent cure for constipa- on. One little *‘ Pellet ’ is a gentle laza- tive, and two a mild cathartic.

RSN B FAILS TO PROSECUTE FOUR LAW-BREAKERS High-Handed Proceeding of District Attorney Martinelli ot Marin County. SAN RAFAEL, Bept. 16.—The recent “misunderstanding” between the Sheriff's and the District Attorney’sofficesover the peculiar methods used in trying to pro. cure a license for A. H. McInnes of | Mill Valley has led others to bring up facts that, in view of the coming cam- paign, accused officials think, might just as well have been left buried. The re- cords are cited to prove that the county has lost $4000 because of a failure on the part of District At(orne{ Martinelli to prosecute a suit against the bondsmen of certain saloon keepers, whose licenses had been revoked because they violated the town ordinances. In each instance the Board of Supervisors had instructed the official to do his duty. In 1895 A. B. Moretti, Peter Crane, A. Kappenmann and L. Laviosa were charged with hnv(ng violated the ordl- nance on various charges of selling li- quor to minors and selling liquor after hours. Their licenses were revoked. Each had bondsmen in the sum of $1000 and the board called on Martinelll to bring suit. No action was brought for over a year and then only when the Good Govern- ment Club, with A. H. Crosby as presi dent, took up the case, and friends ad- vised the District Attorney that he had better do scmething. From that date, March 13, 1897, until July 18, 1863, nothing was done to press the suit against the our men. On the latter date, on mo- tion consent of the District Attor- ney, the cases were stricken from the caiendar, to be restored “on notice”—to suit the’ District Attorney. In the meantime one of the bondsmen has gone through insolvency and several have left town a nobody at present knows_their whereabyiits. "~ The publica- tlon of the pecullar methods Pmrlo ved In the casé of McInnes has resulted in a revival of the interest taken in the older affair, and the gubllc generally Is eager to know why the cases were permitted to die without any legal action. o DEADLY COLLISION OFF MARTHAS VINEYARD Steamer Gloucester Sinksthe Schooner Jordan—Nine of the Latter’s Crew Perish.
