All that she needs is the key and a little knowledge. The Enowledge that she needs is concerning her own nature, her own physical make-up and the principal cause of ill-health in women. When a woman suffers from headaches and pains in the back and sides, and burn- ing and dragging sensations and the weak- ness, nervousness and despondency that are caused by diseases peculiar to her sex, she cannot enjoy good general health. The key to the door of health—the cure for all disorders of this description—is Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It is a medicine specially devised for disorders of this na- ture and no other. It is the invention of an eminent and skillful specialist, Dr. R. V. Pierce, for thirty years chief consultin, physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgi- cal Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y. When a woman writes to Dr. Pierce she consuits a physician who has practiced for thirty years right in one place, and who was some ears ago honored by his own townspeople f,v an election to the National Congress.

END OF A RESTFUL OFFICE| DAN BURNS' ALLY MUST WORK FOR HIS WAGES. The Department Rules That No Out- siders Will Be Allowed to Do Custom-House Work Hereafter. Colonel “Billy” Hamilton has lost his colored cashier, W. D. Jones, and the Cus- tom House was electrified vesterday by the unwonted spectacle of Colonel Hamil- ton actually working. Some months ago in the interest of economy a sweeping reduction was made in the Custom House forces. Among the heads lopped off was that of Mr. Jones. Mr. Jones did the brainy work of the office while Colonel Billy was assisting Jake Steppacher in Sacramento in the political interment of Dan Burns.

R. Hearst to force Seth Mann, chairman of the State Central Committee, to resign, and to place M. F. Tarpe: now and for a long time man- ager of the Hearst estate, in the chair. The story so far is known only to the State executive committee and a few oth- ers in the confidential councils of the par- but it will interest every member of the party from Siskiyou to San Diego. Mr. Hearst, it will be remembered, ar- rived here from New York in the closing he party was about ten day hort of campaign fund before election, and Seth Mann, who had been named by Maguire as chairman of the State Central Committee; W. P. Law- lor, chairman of the campaign committee, and a few other party generals and staff officers, faced the problem of how to make a proper finish to the campaign without money. In this dilemma Me srs. Mann and Law- lor called on Mr. Hearst and stated the needs and limitations of the campaign. Mr. Hearst said in effect: “Go right ahead, gentlemen. Go to whatever ex- pense s necessary and 1 will attend to the bills.” This was definitely understood by the campaign managers as a guarantee. that bills incurred would be paid. the Examiner started ng to double all con- before election the contributions were announc ing to $3009 3, wnich Mr. Hearst to_$6018 60 for the benefit of th When the campaign committee got bills together it was found that penditures made under Mr, Hea antee amounted to about $10.000, there were bills outstanding tent of about $4000. following tribu to the ex 1t was well along in December when the Democratic managers sought to close up the campalgn accounts. Mr. Hearst had gone East and Messrs. Mann and Lawlor A. M. Lawrence, managing ed- aminer, and inquired what Mr. Hearst would be pleased to do about the situation. The guarantee given by Mr. Hearst was recalled and stated by the two gentlemen. Mr. Lawrence gave no satisfactory'a but communicated with Mr. Hea cailed o itor of the a time Messrs. Mann and Law gain by appointment. Mr. rence, as it is reliably stated, and as the tncident is told and understood by a num- nocrats, informed his caller sad norecollection of giv ing a gu such as they had stated That wag a disagreeable misunderstanc ing at best, but Mr. Lawrence had some- thing further to He informed Mr. Mann and Mr. Lawlor that, r rdl of the fact that Mr. Hearst was not respon- sible for the deficit, Mr. Hearst would pay the $4000 owed if Mr. Mann would resign the chairmanship of the State Central Committee and let Mr. Heas name the man to fill the vacan This was simply an offer of $4000 for the chairmanship of the Democratic State Central Committee of California. But Mr. Lawrence went further and intimated that if° Mr. Mann did not resign it was likely that the ma erent of tr gn and of the current cot committee wouid be found open to_ criti- cism. It was further intimated that if Mr. Mann would quietly get out of tb he would recelve a most flatte W notice in the lxaminer for the sbility he had displayed, etc., and that resolutions here and there to the same effect would undoubtedly follow. Mr. Mann thus re- ceived a fairly decent but resolute bid- ding to get out. Mr. Mann quietly informed Mr. Law- rence t resigning was the last thing he thought of or would do. It is said that not long after this a prominent Democrat who had a little pat- ronage matter in hand went to Mr. Law- rence and asked him to see Chairman Mann and get him to use his influence in his behalf. “Oh, {1 no use to see Mann,’ Lawrence; * .ll‘pP)"” be chairman. the man to ‘see.” Matters remained quiet for a time and then in the Examiner of February 2 last came a tap of the club as a gentle re- minder "h:ll it w about time for that resignation, for that day the Examiner jogged the committee and Mr. Mann in the following editoria The Stratton primary election bill is making 1ts townrd. adoption.

If it is not, how can it justify its aflure to study the Stratton bill and all other Tl of & kindred nature and to seek to influ- | ence the Legislature to a wise course in dealing with them? It seems to us that the committee should give some proof that it is not In a trance. On the evening of February 8 the Dem- ocratic Central Club, the largest party organization in the city, having a mem- | bership of 1100, held a meeting at which | were passed some resolutions that at- | tracted no particular notice at the time. They were Introduced by Democrats in the secret and passed with a whoop by members who knew only of the slap at the State Central Committee in the BEx- aminer. In the light of explanations they are part of the story. They were: Resolved, That the members of the Demo- cratic State Central Club, having full fa.th in the honor, ability and integrity of the Hon. Seth Mann, chalrman of the Democratic State | Central Committee, do_hereby pledge him our most loyal support and such assistance as he all on us to glve to aid him in securing mge of a primary law that shall stand the fest of law and Democratic principles, and we further commend his course as chairman of sald committee and hereby volunteer any as- sistance in our power in carrying out the same. It was observed that the Examiner avoided any mention of Mann or the com- liment paid him in its report of the meet- ng, and his name has not appeared in its columns since the ultimatum was given. The campalgn committee decided to communicate with Mr. Hearst personally. A few days ago a telegram of inquiry was the sent him and an evasive reply was re- ceived. Thereupon it was decided that the Democracy could survive without Mr. Hearst, and at a meeting of the executive committee a day or two later Chairman Mann was authorized to appoint a finance committee to endeavor to railse enough money to pay the deficit. The commit- tee has been appointed as follows; James D. Phelan, James H. Budd, Walker C. Gravess L. ¥ Byington, Oscar Hocks, F. J. Fallon, Timothy Treacy. This com- mittee met last Friday for the first time and will make an effort to raise $1100. If it does not succeed the deficit is likely to be referred to a full meeting of the State Central Committe, which will probably be called soon. Chairman Mann will not resign, Mr. Tarpey will not be the chairman right away and Mr. Hearst will not be in con- trol of the State machine very soon. The Towa Men at the Zinkand.

THE END OF ALL RELIGIOUS CONTROVERSY Bishop Montgomery Declares It Near. OF WEAPONS SCIENTISTS MADE USEFUL IN UPHOLDING THE CAUSE OF RELIGION. Interesting and Instructive Lecture Under the Auspices of Mission Council, Young Men’s Institute. The George Montgom- ery Right Rev. Bishop of Monterey and Los Angeles, delivered a lecture in Metropolitan Temple last night, which, while being instructive and entertaining, contained a powerful argument against the unbeliever and so- called “scientist. The lecture was provided by the Y. M. L. Central Bureau, and was given under the | § auspices of Mission Council No. 3. The | hall was crowded from pit to gallery, and hundreds of people were turned away long before the opening of the exercises. The first number on the programme Was an organ_voluntary by R. Fletcher Tilton. D. J. O'Leary, president of Mission Coun- cil, made a few opening remarks, and John M. Burnett, president of the evening, made the opening address. Solos were rendered by Miss Millie Flynn and Charles Parent Jr. President Burnett then introduced the ker of the evening, Bishop Montgom- y, who announced as his subject “The End of Controversy.” “The century just past,” he sald, “‘has been one of unusual activity in every branch of business and study. With all this energy in growth, expansion and change of ‘parties and politicians, In no pursuit or business has activity been greater than in religious questions. Yet with all the false ideas and antagonisms evolved, the church stands to-day the most conspicuous object and organization. Our work Is largely one of controversy, as it is our mission to overthrow false doctrines and point out the true path. I think the end of all this controversy must | soon come, and I expect it to come from the very people who have caused the most of it—the educated and the cultured. “Your unbeliever tells you that in things supernatural the only guide is reason. He s that God has put a brain into man to son things out for himself; that he car independent and does not need a leader or an authority. 2 “Yet he will not apply this principle to natural things. When it comes to a qu tion of law, of mediclne, aye, Or e maller things as language, art and mu- sic, does your scientist attempt to reason ! theém out for himself. or will he not go straightway and consult an authority on | @ the subject? If it is a question of law he goes to the books and reads in them what | fas been evolved, not by any one man’s | reasoning powers, but by a number of the best informed on that subject. And so it 1s with all things finite. «When it comes to the infinite, to the supernatural, however, he tells you that | is own reason is all sufficlent;” that he needs consult no law, and that he was in- onstrue the revelations of the it himself. This, my friends, t religious anarchy in just the ‘manner as social anarchy would be bout if each man were allowed aws according to sower, and this keeps us continually In a broil of controversy. The end is near at hand. The fen- Who have sought to overthrow relig- ave only strengthened it, and the wiser ones have come to realize it and are | daily looking upon religion with more | friendly eves. In fact, it has come to such | a s now that when you find a man ing about science. investigation will show that he really knows little or noth- ing about true science.
