The reception was an admirably man- | aged affair.

The Von Mohi Co., of Cincinnati, O., known the country over as the largest importers of standard remedies in the United States, have achieved the most remarkable success ever known in the his- NO C. tory of medicine with “Calthos,” their marvelous French remedy # for lost manhood. They were the first American concern to hear of #4 the wonderful discovery soon as it was given the’public in France, and at once sent a trusted representative to Paris, who secured the exclusive rights for the preparation in North America. The past year “Calthos” has become as famous in America as it f is throughout Europe. Over one hundred thousand sufferers of lost manhood in all its most terrible forms have been cured, and have written the Von Mohl Co., telling of the joy they experience in hav- ing the functions of perfect manhood restored. Not ome of thess letters have been, or will be made public, because the Von Mohl Company has made it an imperative rule to treat all correspondence of the Calthos department of their business sacredly and confi- d dentially. Every year letters from patients are destroyed, and among their patrons are many men with national reputations in public and private affairs. ‘The Von Mohl Company has just imported 100,000 treatments of “Calthos" fresh from Prof. Jules Laborde, the greatest physician in all France and the great discoverer of this remedy, and mow invites all men suffering from Lost Manhood, Spermatorrhoea, Varicocele, Small Parts or Weakness of any nature in the Nerves or Sexual Organs, to send their names and receivea five days® treatment of * CALTHOS.” After using it five days the suffer- 'ers will find new vigor in their organs, new force in their muscies, mew blood in their veins, new ambition, and rapid progress toward the buoyant feelings and sensations of younger days.

The rooms of the Unlon League Club were filled to the doors yesterday after- noon with men of national repute who | had gathered to attend the informal re- ception given In honor of Senator Carter, Montana’s able representative in the councils of the nation. General N. P. Chipman, president of the club, acted as chairman, and in a few well chosen words introduced the Senator to those of the guests with whom he was not already acquainted. Senator Carter acknowledged the pre- sentation and then delivered u pro-expan- sion address, which he brought to a con- clusion by thanking the people of Cali- | fornfa and this city in particular for the | hospitality and courtesy with which they had received the Montana delegation and for the solicitude they had shown in look- ing after the comfort of the returned Montana volunteers. Following_Senator Carter came M. H. de Young, M. M. Estee, Colonel John P, Jackson, Julius Kahn and a number of others, each of whom had something to say In compliment of the famous states- man they had gathered to greet. When the speechmaking had been brought to a close all present were intro- duced to the Senator, after which the meeting broke up into little groups and conversation of a general and pleasant clharuter passed away the balance of the time. Among the distinguished gentlemen resent was General Henry Clay Evans, Jnited States Commissioner of Pensions. s CONVICTS SENTENCED. George F. Trueworthy, who killed John | Landsman on the night of June 11 last, and who was convicted of murder in the second degree, was sentenced to ten years' Imprisonment in San Quentin by Judge Cook yesterday morning. As the dead man gru\oked the quarrel that led | to his death at the hands of Trueworthy the court imposed the minimum penalty for the offense provided by the law. Richard Jessup, recently convicted of | burglary in the second degree, was sentenced to two years and six months imprisonment in San Quentin. — e —— Railroad Men Discuss Flanges. The Paclfic Coast Rallroad Club held its regular monthly meeting last night in the conservatory of the Palace Hotel. About fifty members were present and T. J. ‘Wallace presided as chairman. Two papers were read, one by C. O. Borton on ‘“‘Sharp Flanges, Causes and Remedies,” and the other by T. J. Hen- derson, an engineer of the Valley Road | was entitled “Compound Locomotives.” Both papers were of great interest to | those present as was, evinced by the dis- cussion they evoked when the questions of which they treated were thrown open *for debate, The next regular meeting will take place three weeks from yesterday and will be devoted to a continuation of the same subjects. B Bicycle Thief Captured. Richard Clarke, a young bicycle thief, was arrested last night by Detective Tom Ryan after a short chase and lodged in the City Prison on two charges of petty larceny. Young Clarke was employed as bellboy In the International Hotel. He had been under suspicion of stealing things from the rooms of the guests and the police were notified. One of the clerks | yesterday discovered that his bicycle was missing and on investigation learned that | Clarke was seen to depart with it. De- tective Ryan was in the vicinity of Third | and Howard streets last night and saw the young man trying to dispose of the | wheel in the pawnshops along that street. As soon as Clarke spled the officer he dropped _the wheel and sprinted for gafety. Ryan proved too speedy for him, however, and overtook him in short order. —_————————— N. S. Thompson’s Will.
