Ihad kidney complaint, leucorrhees, itching, bearing-down feeling, and painful menstruation. I wrote to Mrs. Pinkham, describing my trouble, and soon received an answer telling me what to do.

Duff, who had charge of the rent department in the office of Benja- min M. Gunn & Co., real estate agents, 228 Montgomery street, when he abscond- ed on August 4 last, been arrested in Salt Lake City, and the necessary papers for his extran?nlon on the charge of fel- ony embezzlement wiil be forwarded with- out delay and an officer sent to bring him back. Duff was looked upon by his employers as an exemplary young man, and had their entire confidence. He lived with his wife and three-vear-old daughter at 12144 Vermont street. He spent Iriday night, August 3, at his home and Saturday morning left as usual for the office with- out showing any sign of anyvthing being | wrong. He was at the office Saturday, | but that was the last seen of him. His | accounts were examined, and it was at | once seen that he was a defaulter. p The case was put into the hands of pri- vate detectives, but no trace of Duff could be found. On November Benjamin Gunn happened to be in Salt Lake City, and while driving around he espied Duff walking on the street. When he returned here Gunn notified the police authorities at Salt Lake to arrest Duff, but nothing was done. Saturday he called upon Cap- tain Seymour and the captain wired the Chief_of Police at Salt Lake City to ar- rest Duff, as he was wanted for felony embezzlement. Yesterday morning he re. celved a reply that Duff had been ar- rested. Captain Seymour at once notified Gunn, and he swore to a complaint befora Judge Cabaniss charging Duff with felony embezzlement, and the necessary papers for his extradition were promptly pre- pared. The amount charged in the complaint as having been embezzled by Duff is $4000, but Gunn says that it will exceed that sum. What Duff did with the money i3 a mystery, although it is hinted that he played the races and frequented the Ptenderioin.”” At the time of his disap- pearance it was rumored that he had eloped, but that was indignantly denled by his wife and scouted by his employers. He had been in the employ of the firm for two year: Capture Alleged Room Burglar. Harry Hill, 2 roomer at the St. David House, TI5 Howard street, reported the joss of his clolh(r’g and 'other articles to Police Officers Tuite and rrell_on Howard street yesterday afternoon.

When the fire started Mrs. Anderson, | mother of Mrs. North, was lying on her bed in an upper chamber, being an inva- 1ld. The house was filled with smoke, but Officers O'Connor and McDonough rushed in and carried Mrs. Anderson out to a place of safety. It was necessary to knock out & number of boards in the fence in order to avold the flames, which were | mounting higher each moment before tho | arrival of the engines. As soon as the of- ficers succeeded In getting the helpless woman through the fence she was taken to the residence of Captain Leale of the steamer Bay City, and made comfortable for the night. ‘While Fire Marshal Towe was about to enter the burning residence he slipped on the pavement approaching the place and was unable to rise. He was hurried off to the Receiving Hospital, where Dr. Put- nam found that his left leg was badly sprained, After treatment he was sent to his home.
