The circular follows: The Civil Service Commissioners respectfully direct your attention to rule 16, General Rules of the Civil Service Commission, which reads as follows: Rule 16, Participation in Politics— FParticipation of civil service appointees in partisan politics, except to vote, is contrary to the epirit of the Charter, and subversive sof the best interests of civil service.” We respectfully ask your active co-operation in enforcing this rule in your department, so | that one of the main objects of the city's | charter may be thus secured. —_———— Nurses’ Directory.

There will be a cold wave. The fog will come. The temperature will drop probably 30 degrees. Our Eastern visitors will all be laid up with cold. Warn them, 1 beseech you, of the temporary nature of the sun’s Togless and windless reign and bid them prepare for the chill to come.” The warning was issued. The Eastern visitors accepted the warning literally. When McAdie said cold they understood cold as they know it in the East and pre- pared accordingly. In spite of the sun’s early smiles they faced the day well pre- pared to meet the cold wave half way. The ladies carried a fur or two and all the men were prepared with overcoats. ‘When the panting, wrap burdened vis- itors returned to their hotels yesterday afternoon they, with few exceptions, adapted their wearing apparel.to the tem- perature. A few of the more belligerent demanded McAdie's address, but when at 5 o'clock the thermometer showed the ar- rival of the advance guard of McAdie's cold wave they concluded that Uncle [T L0ts ALIMONY Ghat Southern Pacific Offi- cial’s Former Spouse Wins Point. Charles H. Smith, treasurer of the Southern Pacific Company, must pay his former wife, Josephine Smith, alimony in the sum of $100 a month until the Supreme Court passes upon the validity of the de- | cree of divorce which was granted Smith by Judge Daingerfield several months ago. The payment of the alimony was or- dered by Judge Sloss yesterday. e Smiths separated some time ago. Mrs. Smith instituted a suit for alimony, which was decided in her favor by Judge Hebbard, who ordered the railroad official to pay $100 on the 15th of each succeeding month. Following the order directing the pay- ment of alimony Smith commenced suit for divorce. With the granting of the de- cree the payment of alimony ceased. Smith’s former wife forthwith asked that the decree be set aside and that a new trial be ordered. She also made a motion for alimony pending the decision of the motion for a new trial. The motion for a new trial was denied in the Superior Court and an appeal was taken. Judge Sloss decided the motion for all- mony yesterday and held that the fact that an appeal had been taken suspended the decree and the husband could claim no rights thereunder. Hence Mrs. Smith was entitled to alimony pending the final adjudication of the case. 3 CRUISE OF THE MILITIA ON THE PHILADELPHIA The Jackies Receivimg Instruction on a Modern Ship-of- War. Captain Thomas A. Nerney of the Naval Militia, who went on the Philadelphia last week to see that the several divisions along the southern coast reported on that vessel, returned yesterday overland, hayv- ing left the ship at San Diego. On the way down the militia men were assigned to watches with the regular men Jof the vessel and they demonstrated thdt they were eqral to perform any duty assigned them, and thelr proficiency was a revela- tion to the officers of the vessel. Thosc of the engineer division were highly com- rlimented for their knowledge. On Tues- day the ship started for a point off Cata- lina Isiand to instruct the men in tarzet practice. The Philadelphia will return to this city next Wednesday, after having landed the several divisions of the :nilitia at San Diego, San Pedro, Santa Barbara and Santa Cruz. She will go to Panama from here. : Captain Nerney declares that officers of war vessel enforced the strictest dis- cipline and that the militia men perform- ed every duty without grumbling. Ho says 1nat the cruise is the best school of instruction that the militia has had, for the men are being made wise in_ every- thing that 1s modern in the naval line. —_——— Torger in Hands of Marshal.

Of catarrh remedies there is no end, but of catarrh cures there has always becn & great scarcity. There are many remedies to relieve, but very few that really cure. The old practice of snuffing salt water through the nose would often relieve, and the washes, douches, powders and inhai- ers in common use are very little, if any, better than the old fashioned salt water ovche. The use of inhalers and the applicatjon of salves, washes and powders to the nose and throat to cure catarrh is no more reasonable than to rub the back to cure kidney disease. Catarrh is just as much a blood disease as kidney trouble cr rheumatism and it cannot be cured by local treatment any more than they can be. 3 To cure catarrh, whether in the head, throat or stomach an internal antiseptic treatment is necessary to drive_the catar- rhal poison out of the blood and system, and the new catarrh cure is designed on this plan and the remarkable success of Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets is because be- ing used internally it drives out catarrh- al_infection through action upon stom- ach, liver and bowels. ‘Wm. Zimmerman of 8t. Joseph relates an_experience with catarrh which is of value to millions of catarrk sufferers everywhere. He says: I neglected a slight nasal catarrh until it gradually ex- tended to my throat and bronchial tubes and finally even my stomach and liver became affected, but as I was able to keep up and do a day's work I let it run along until my hearing began to fail me and then I realized that I must get rid of catarrh or lose my position, as I was clerk and my hearing was absolutely necessary. “Some of my frlends recommended an inhaler, another a catarrh salve, but they were no good in my case, nor was any- thing else until I heard of Stuart’s Ca- tarrh Tablets and bought a package at my drug store. They benefited me from the start and in less than four months I was completely cured of catarch, althougfih I had suffered nearly all my life from it. “They are pleasant to take and so much more convenfent to use than other catarrh remedies that I feel I cannot say enough in favor of Stuart’s Catarrh Tablets.” A little book on cause and cure of ca- tarrh will be mailed free by addressing F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich., and the tablets are sold by all druggists in the United States and Canada. the warning about too radical changes in ‘wearing. apparel.” _OAKLAND, Oct. 12.—The weather of the ! last few days has been hotter than that _of, any October ‘day on record for many years. The thermometer reached 94 yes- terday and 8 to-day. The thermometer at'Livermore stood at 88 to-day, with a hot north wind blowing. No damage is reported throughout the county.

Mention of what this bank- rupt. stock consists of will be made later GREATLY NEEDED Establishment of System Here Urged by Con- gressman Kahn. RS ‘What the merchants of San Francisco have o long been demanding—closer con- nection with' the Farallone Islands—in or- der that the arrival of ships may be more | promptly reported, seems now in a fair way to be accomplished. Congressman | Julius Kahn has given the question much | study and he proposes to bring the mat- | ter up at the next session of Congress. | Several plans have been suggested. One is the establishment of the Marconi sys- tem of wireless telegraphy. The other is the laying of a cable between the islands and the mainland. Either plan would be acceptable to the commercial interests of the city. Here is what Congressman Kahn has to say about the matter: SAN FRANCISCO, October 12, 1901 To the Editor of The Call: During my recent trip to the Philippines it was my Z0od fortune to meet Brigadier General A. W. Greely, chief of the Signal Corps, U. S. A. Recognizing the importance of having the Marconi wireless tele- graph system inaugurated between the Faral- lones and San Francisco, 1 called the matter to the attention of General Greely, and the latter, recognizing the importance of such a_station to the commerce of our city, has agreed to aid us in having it established. This will enable us to learn of the approach of a vessel much earller than at the present, and in cases where vessels are reported in distress it will allow assistance to be sent promptly and effectively. San Francisco has one of the finest harbors in the world. The fact is recognized by- all sea- faring men and by all persons who are inter- ested In the ocean carrying trade. And yet every effort should be made to supplement the work of nature by man’s handiwork. I am sat- isfled that the establishment of telegraphic communication between San Francisco and the Farallones will be a great boon to mariners as well as to all persons Interested in ocean com- merce, and knowing the Sreat interest that The | Call has taken in this matter I am pleased to | report that in all likelthood the work will soon | be consummated. Respectfully yours, JULIUS KAHN. The Department of Agriculture is also interested in the subject because weather reports from the islands would be of con- siderable assistance in making forecasts. —_— ADDITIONAL ALLOWANCE !
