Tinal action was taken by the South- ern Pacific yesterday on a Frid: to Monday Tahoe excursion ticket, which as long as the season justifies will be sold for $10.80. This breaks the record in point of cheapness, places that prominently to the front as a place to spend Saturday and Sunday and enjoy pleasures that are not purchasable at any price elsewhere. Tickets at this rate will be good on the train leaving this city at 6 p. m. Fridays, and returning at a. m. or 8:45 p. m. Mondays, which practically means fr 10 a. m.

The will of Dr. Washington Ayer, who dfed February 15, was also-filed for pro- bate.

By the terms of the will of Isidor Cohn, who died June 26, an_estate valued at $10.000 is devised to the widow, Bertha Cohn. —_— e FORTY DAYS IN JAIL. Unwarranted Confinement of Twa Soldiers on Criminal Charges. Andrew Hogan and B. Whitaker, regu- lars in the United States army, at pres- ent stationed at the Presidio, who were arrested some forty days ago on charge of robbery, were released from custody yesterday by Judge Lawlor on the motion of the District Attorney.

But pride goes before a fall, and just as Jim passed the party at the telegraph window his foot slipped from under him | and it was only by the exercise of con- siderable quickness and agility that he saved himself from coming in violent and undignified contact with the floor. As it was, his equilibrium was considerably up- | set. A titter of amusement ran through | the group at the window, | Jim turned, and, approaching the gen- | tleman nearest to him, sald: “Pardon me, | sir, but probably if vou yourself had fallen you could have recovered yourself | with more grace and agllity than did 1.” | The gentleman, wishing to avoid any | scene, assured him that the grace he dis- | played was all that could be desired. | “Then, sir,”” continued Brazell,you may see something to criticize in the manner of my locomotion?" He was told that that was all right | also. Maybe my dress does not suit your es- thetic taste? Possibly you find something to complain of in the harmony of the tune 1 was humming? Perchance the contour | of my foot does not strike your sense of the artistic in its proportion, or it may | be the covering that incases it is what | meets with your disapproval.” He was told that his voice was like the | rippling of a mountain brook; that his | foot was a thing of beauty and a joy for- | ever and that the boot which covered it was a rare work of art. | “Is there, sir, anything in my person- | my dress or my behavior that you | would wish to take exception to? Can | vou find aught in my. being or in any of the articles that adorn it to provoke your mirth?” | He was told that he was all right in every particular. “Then, sir’—and, doffing his hat, he | made a sweeping bow untll its crown | swept the floor—“then, .sir, allow me to | | introduce myself to your consideration as | inm only | modern Cyrano de Bergerac. Good evening.” Resuming his interrupted tune, he turned om his heel and walked off, well | satisfied with the impression he had made. —_— e CALIFORNIANS IN NEW YORK. | NEW YORK, July 8—J. W.

Charles H. Johnson, who was accused of grand larceny for stealing a watch and $20 from the purser of the steamer H. J. Corcoran, appeared _ before Judge Treadwell yesterday. Johnson had been taken before the Insanity Commissioners on complaint of his father, who lives in Stockton, but he was remanded back to the City Prison. The purser refused yes- terday to prosecute the case, and as the young man's tather, who was in court, told the Judge that his son had been ten | vears In a private asylum and was not responsible for his actions, the Judge dis- missed the case and turned him over to his father. o ADVERYTISEMENTS. Backache Wearying, ceaseless backache. Dull, exhausting and constant pain. No comfort by day. No rest at night. Aches in the small of the back, pain low down in the side. No spirit for any task, no hope for relief. Great numbers of women are not free from backache from one year’s end to another. Among Mrs. Pinkham’s victories there is none more complete than that over backache, and the evi- dence of thousands of women prove that she is its conqueror. Mrs. C. Klenk, of Wells, Minn. (Box 151), writes: «DEAR MRS. PINKHAM— suffered for years: with a long list of troubles, and I want to thank you for my complete recovery. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a wonderful medicine for women. «1 had severe female compiaints, causing terrible backache and nervous pros- tration; was dizzy most of the time, had headache and such a tired feeling. I now have taken seven bottles of your Compound and have also used the Sanative Wash and feel like a new woman. I must say I never had any- thing help me so much. I have better health than I ever had in my life. Isleep well at night, and can work all day without feeling tired. I give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ail the credit, for I know it has cured me of all my troubles. Iwould notdo without your remedies for anything."” When a woman has severe back- ache she has some serious trouble that will sooner or later declare itself. Mrs. E. Furton, of lleade, Mich., found that her back- ache was caused by a tumor, which’ three bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound expelled. This is Mrs. Furton’s letter: “DEAR MRS. PINKBAM— Two years ago I was troubled with constant backache and headache, and was very nervous. I resolved to try your medicine and took two bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham'’s Vegetable Compound and pn taking the third a tumor was expelled. I was a little frightened and sent for the doctor; and he said that it was fortunate for me that it came away. 1 got quite well after that and have your Compound alone to thank for my recovery."'’; The safe way to guard against trouble is to get Mrs. Pinkham’s advice when the back- ache first appears. A letter to her at Lynn, Mass., describing your case fully will receive a prompt reply without charge. “¢ Your Madicine is a Friend (o Women.”” +«DEAR MRs. PINKHAM—T W h to tell you the great good your medicine has done me. I do not feel like the same woman. I have suffered terribly. Had womb and kindey trouble, leucorrhcea, ‘very severe pains in hips and sides of abdomen, headache, was nervous, menses were irregular. I have now taken four bottles of your Vegetable Compound, and the backache has left me, menses are regular. can sleep weil, and awake in the morning feeling much rested.
