POSTAL FOR A NEW ILLUSTRATED CATALOGUE, NOW IN in each city—San Francisco, Los -.n- geles and Oakland. The San Francisco store, located at 1128 Market strget, runs through the entire block to Turk street, and occu- pies 9650 square feet, employing forty: four men and women. This is an all- night store, and for five years has not closed its doors once. The mail order department occupies the rear or Turk street side, and is under competent management. The men who attend to the wants of our country friends are old-time experienced mail order men, who know the shortest and quickest routes and cheapest rates to the va- rious points on the Pacific Coast. They understand wrapping and packing bot- tied medicines and drug sundries to withstand the carelessn of postal and express clerks. Mail orders receive immediate attention and country cus- tomers are not obliged to pay one cent more for their purchases than our city customers, except freight or express charges, which we prepay on $5 orders or over to railroad points within 100 miles of our stores. The Los Angeles store, located at 320 South Spring street, was established in 1894 and is by far the handsomest and best equipped drugstore in the south- ern city. It, too, is a cut-rate, depend- able store, and supplies a majority of the residents of Southern California, Arizona, New Mexico and Mexico with drug sundries. This store occuples 11,- employment n men and women. Oakland store was purchased Kirkland & Trowbridge in 1896 rned into a cut-rate store imme- . It is on the corner of Tenth and Broadway, right in the cen- ter of the retail shopping district of Oakland. Being so close to San Fran- cisco we do not encourage mail orders from that point. This store supplies and delivers drugs. medicines and toilet articl to the residents of Oakland Berkeley and Alameda. It covers 5625 square feet, and ten employes are nec- sary to attend the wants of its cus- tomers. All of our stores are well provided for public convenience. Ladies’ waiting and toilet rooms, ice-water tanks, te phones, directori: messenger servi dictionaries, postage stamps, writing desks and every other little thing that so greatly adds to the comfort and pleasure of shoppers and visitors.

Pzl sat) PLAN OF CAMPAIGN FOR THE DRY SEASON WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.—General Otis has been instructed in framing his plan of campaign for the dry season to allow for the fullest participation of the naval forces now in the Philippines, and as soon as he has been heard from the necessary orders will go forward to the naval commanders to co-operate with the army to an extent not before | contemplated. The naval officers have | always been willing to do this, but they have been restrained in their op- erations by an indisposition to interfere | in any quarter with the plans of the military commanders. The ships will undertake to capture any of the ports | now in insurgent poss on that may be desired by the army, and also to hold them indefinitely, thus making it possible to open the railroad in Luzon | from the northern extremity, while in | Cavite province, with the large force | of marines now on hand, it is believed | that the navy can undertake to relieve | the soldiers tsationed there and make a | valuable force for other operations. | WILL ORGANIZE TWO 1 COLORED REGIMENTS WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.—An order for the organization of two colored reg- iments was issued from the War De- | partment to-day.

Sept. PASAD A, The State Anti- Saloon League, whose headquarters ar at Oakland, has begun a fight against sa- loons and out-of-town roadhouses in Southern California, using as its weapon the sanitary district legislative act. C. Garibaldi, who for years has conducted a saloon a short distance outside the city limits on East Colorado street, has been chosen as_an example. The citizens of | Lamanda Park, which is the nearest post- office, met and chose A. L. Schofield, J. W. Hugus, C. A. Day, W. T. Sibley and W. A. Weymouth members of a sanitary board, the district to be established if the voters so decide at an election to held on October 10. A majority of the ballots is necessary to elect. The County Board of Supervisors is said to believe that the district will be established. If so, the sanitary board will have power to grant or refuse a liquor li- cense and will close Garibaldi's saloon. The proprietor believes that his saloon will be closed and has tried to sell out. Failing in this he has begun the erection | of a winery In the belief that no author- ity has power to prevent his selling his own product, even if the city should ex- tend its limits to_include the winery. | The local Anti-Saloon League met re- gently and passed resolutions supporting the Btate League and Lamanda Park League. The State League agrees to bear | the expense attendant to enforcing the | law and all incidental expenses should op- | position be made. Should the election result in establish- ing the district, work will be begun on other districts in this part of the State which have been mapped out by the Anti- | Saloon League. The Lamanda district | will comply pretty closely with the elec- | tion precinct. The citizens of North Pasadena hav acted upon similar lines as have the La- manda Park people. Their petition has not yet been acted upon by the County Board of Supervisors. ————— THREE PERSONS LOSE THEIR LIVES BOATING | Accidentally Run Into at Night by Government Boat and Their | Craft Overturned.

AN ENTIRE TOWN IS DESTROYED BY FIRE Probably the Worst Conflagration Ever Known in the Forests of Northern Wyoming. DENVEK, Sept. 9.—A special to the Re- publican from Cheyenne, Wyo., says: Forest fires are now burning in the TLaramie Peak timber district, in North- ern Albany County, and alon Muddy Mountain, about twenty-five miles south- | east of Casper. Speclal Agent Abbott of the Interior Department, who went out to investigate and put out the fires if pos- sible, has a force of men working in the Laramie Peak district, and hopes to over- come the flames within a few days. Noth- ing can_be done toward fighting the Muddy Mountain fire on account of the dense smoke, and it will be allowed to burn itself out. During the fore part of this week the Wors‘lvlorfliit‘flres h’& ihetglstol’)’ of lNor{.‘rp ern Wyoming raged in the mountains be- tween the north and south forks of the Tongue River, west of Sheridan. Four townships were burned over and the town of Rockwood was wiped out. The tie cm’ng| of McShane & Co., together with a number of sawmills and a large quantitly of railroad tles and lumber, was de- stro)&ed. Many tlecutters narrowly es- caped. LIFE BOAT EQUIPPED WITH A GAS ENGINE First Experiment of the Sort Ever Tried Results in Every Way Satisfactorily. MARQUETT.., Mich., Sept. 9.—The first test of a lifeboat equipped with power was made here to-day and, judging from the performance, was in every way satisfac- tory. Lieutenant Charles W. McLellan, assistant Inspector of the Life-Saving Service, was in charge of the experiment. An ordinary thirty-five-foot lifeboat had been fitted with a twelve horsepower su- gerlol gas engine. Under full power the oat made a good raté of speed. During the drill of the life-savers the boat was rolled over and over, and showed that the presence of .the engine in the airtight chamber in no wa{ affected the ability of the boat to right itself. - The engine kept running no_matter what position the boat was in. Up to this time lifeboats have had but sails and oars, and it is thought engines of this type will be of great util- ty. Died From a Kick. ANGELS CAMP, Sept. 9.—Fred Brunner died suddenly this morning from the ef- fects of a Kick over the heart inflicted two weeks ago. Deceased was a well known rancher and miner, having lived at this place since the early mining days. Several children survive him. QUAKER COLONY ~ INTHE FAR NORTH — Working Among Alaska Indians. B e 1 Dispatch to The Call. Spect PASADENA, Sept. 9.—C. C. Reynolds, a prominent business man of this city, ha returned from a long stay in the country about Kotzebue Sound, Alaska. Reynolds orately equipped and built a steamer in | Kotzebue, in which they prospected the | Kowak River thoroughly without finding | gold enough to warrant the staking of a | claim. Tnis steamer, the Helen, was the only one built in the sound. She is 10 feet | beam and 38 feet over all. Mr. Reynolds is a leading member of the Friends church. While at Kotzebue | he was on very intimate terms with Mr. and Mrs. Robert Samms and Miss Anna Hunnicutt, the three Friends missionaries who went from Los Angeles and Whittier two years ago and located at Blossom Cape for the purpose of instructing the Indians. Despite the misgivings of friends of the missionaries, who feared that the Indians would not be found to be hos- pitable, these missionaries have enjoyed eat success. They have erected a school uilding, where the Indians come in the summer to trade with the natives from Siberia. The American Indians trade furs to the Siberian Indians for skins of rein- deer, which are made into clothes. are said to take kindly to instruction. The methods employed by the missionaries are similar to thosé of kindergarten teachers. taught. are without white companions, have built, there the year round, a Steamer, Wit which they Visit the Indian villages on the them balm for minds and’ souls. The missionaries have great hardships to conten with. Mrs. Samms, who only 23 vears of age, was forced last win- ter to walk forty-five miles over snow and ice while working among the Indians. She has often slept out on the ice in a deer- skin sleeping-bag, with the thermometer 30 to 40 degrees below zero. The Reynolds party_left in the schooner Penelope from San Pedro in May, 1888, and only Mr. Reynolds has seen civiliza- tion since then. The other members of the party are expected home some time this fall.” They failed to locate any claims in the Kowak or Kotzebue country, but have several claims near Cape Nome. DEATH OF L. S.
