The | aisease has appeéared in Lakeview, Or., and at other points in the same State. There are a half dozen cases ‘among the Indians at Susanville, County, and one or two whites are afflicted. Spo- radic cases are reported from other towns in _the northern part of the State. . R. Blodin, health officer of this county, is authority for the statement that the alarm over the situation is need- less and unwarranted. He sald to-day that the disease first obtained a foothold at Fort Bidwell last summer, and, al- though a rigid quarantine was established at that time, it ep to some of the border towns. It is now Dr. Blodin's in- tention, so far as Modoc County is con- cerned, to enforce a more stringent ob- servance of sanitary conditions. In view | of the appearance of the disease in Ore- | gon, Dr. Blodin has instructed all. post- masters in border towns to fumigate mail and in this way he hopes to prevent any spread of the disease in this county.

PROVES SUCCESS IN EVERY DETAIL Many Friends of Local Branch of the International Sunshine Society Throng Rooms and Contribute Toward Fund Which Will Be Used to Carry on Charitable Work THE MOST ACTIVE HE Alden Club valentine reception and entertainment at 1622 Clay street vesterday afternoon was a success in every detail. Many friends of the club thronged the | room and added to the proceeds of the affair. The club is well known to be a branch of the International Sunshine So- | ciety, and its members work with cease- less energy to give practical assistance | wherever it is possible regardless of creed or social position. The bright spirit of helpfulness of the earnest workers wins admiration and the large attendance yes- terday was a fair testimonial. The dec- orations were carried out in white, red and gold. The International Sunshine Soclety colors are white and gold, while red belongs to the Alden. Follage was carefully blended with the decorations | Over a table was a large canopy formed | by four strings of red hearts. In the | drawing room was the Sunshine shield, bearing the 1.

Tsilka, has been paid. The limit of time allowed for the release of. the captives has not yet expired, but their delivery to the American agents is ex- pected hourly. SOFIA, Feb. 14.—Bulgaria, an official newspaper, declares that as a result of an energetic note from the United States the Government has permitted the open- ing of negotiations with the brigands for the liberation of Miss Stone on Turkish territory. WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.—It may be that Miss Stone's release is at last im- pending. The State Department has been informed of a new arrangement contem- lating her liberation by the Bulgarian rigands who hold her captive. Officials will not say that there is foundation for the report that the ransom has been al- ready paid and that Miss Stone is to be left at a point eed upon, where she will be found by representatives of the American legation in Constantinople. At the same time they give the impression that there is some_basis for it and ex- press a hope that Miss Stone's captivity will soon be ended. b ] Count Not to Be Extradited.

The prominent philanthropic ' women who constitute the board of managers of the California Woman's Hospital and who work ceaselessly in the interests of the suffering are véry much éncouraged over the report for last year from the medical department, which came up at the last annual meeting of the members of the hospital board. ' Dr. Vowinckel, surgeon in charge, reported seventy-eight capital operatlons and 183 of secondary impor- tance and minor operations having been performed. Forty-nine free patients were treated in the free ward and 147 in the free clinic were given 434 treatments, and this by no means covers all the charity work of the medical staff. Nine deaths occurred, but seven of the deceased had gfe; suiiering from cancer in advanced ages. The training school takes a very high place in the city, graduates from it being at the head of its own school, of the Lane Hospital Training School, of the German Savine, who was arrested here on a charge of swindling, has been refused on the ground that the charge against the Count was not sufficlently proved. —~ Building Railway Extension.

Talk of a Compromise Can- didate for Governor to Succeed Dole. H. P. Baldwin, a Plantation Manager, May Be Made Chief Executive and Samuel Parker Secretary. g | i G | Specifal Correspondence of The Call. HONOLULU, Feb. 7.—George R. Car- ter, son. cf a former Hawaitan Minister to | Washington, has been asked by President FRoocsevelt for his views upon the political situaticn in Hawali, and Carter leaves for Washington on Tuesday, February 11, by the Oceanic Company's steamer Sono- ma. He should arrive in San Francisco | on Monday, February 17. Previously Carter had received a tele- { gram from Samuel Parker asking him to meet the latter in San. Francisco “at the | | President’s request.” Not understanding | the purport of the message, Carter re- mained at home. Now, however, he feels | it his duty to report in person to Mr. Roosevelt, and during the few days he is here he will be gathering the views of ernor Dcle, so as to be in a position to i pluce thein before the President. Parker’'s avowal in Chicago that he is to succeed Dole as Governor of Hawall has aroused the whole community, and the hot-pot of politics is fairly seething over. The “ins” are gloomy and the “outs’” feel expectant. An 0ld Political Battle. It is one of the old political battles, for which Honolulu has been famous for more than a couple of decades. It is as- against the Governor is his refusal to | call a special session of the Legislature | to authorize a_ bond issue. Experience with the Legislature in its former_ ses- sion did not show any tendency on the part of the natives, who are in control, to do more than waste time and money. Taxation, moreover, is frightfully high and nobody would appreciate an increase in this direction. Outside of this one reason, there is nothing of an official or personal nature that can be charged against the Governor, say his supporters, and the “‘outs” form a mugwump section of the Republican party, who have be- come sore simply because they are the “‘outs.” Already there is a tendency to talk of a compromise candidate, and J.

Governor Dole told The Call correspon- dent this morning that he had not re- | ceived any request for his resignation, { nor had any desire for it been hinted at, | as the dispatches stated. The Governor | sald he only wished that President Roose- velt would send Secretary Hitchcock, or some other gentleman in whom he has equal confidence, to Honolulu to make a thorough investigation of political condi- | tions, ana he is perfectly willing to abide | by the result. This is the way that all | the Governor's friends feel. Admiral Evans Investigated. It is a fact not known here that Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans made a report to the President after his recent stay of | ten days in Homolulu. This report was | not favorable to the Governor, but | “Fighting Bob’ is not Known to have con- sulted any people with large interests at | stake in the Territory, but rather to have gathered his information from the loung- ers in the hotel lobbies.

No matter who succeeds him, should any change be made, he will be the butt of the ‘‘outs” within a few months, just as Dole has been. Honolulu Press Comment.

The Star says of Dole that he “has risked his fortune, his liberty, aye, his life itself, to establish this country upon a true American basis. | His reward, after he has succeeded, has {aeendt_a be hounded, traduced and ma- ned."” 'he Bulletin says that Parker is a peace candidate, and claims to have a dispatch stating that his appointment was to be sent to the Senate on February 6. It says that the appointment of Parker means an_‘end to the oligarchy which President Dole took alongrwlth him when he became Governor.” The paper adds that, harmony under Dole is impossible. “The appointment of Parker ought to put an end to the home rule movement,” says the Bulletin. The Advertiser says that the report from Washington is the elimax of a cam- paign which has been “a systematic and constant stream of insinuations, misrep- resentations and false charges against Governor Dole bruited in Washington ana dinned into the ears of the President, Cabinet, Senators, Representatives and subordinate officials. If the derogatory statements that have been made to the President are true, the sooner Governor Dole is removed the better. But every one here knows that they are not true; that Governor Dole is an upright, Chris- tlan gentleman, the soul of honor, of spotless integrity, affable to a rare. de- gree; the one. man who could have suc- cessfully él:t‘e& ng;a!u through the stormy pe: m o 1808, LA eris itlaa: posaitid Batar ) S i Dragged:-Down Feeling | In the loins.

(ENDURANCE HE WANTED ! The ablest manager of professional ath- letes in the world, Thomas O'Rourke of New York City, writing to the proprie- tors of Paine's Celery Compound on Jan- uary 11, satd: “One of the most important features in the training of an athlete is to invigorate his nervous system, and nothing ever takes the place of Paine's Celery Com- pound to accomplish this! It facilitates getting a man in prime condition. In my expericnce in handling athletes I have never found anything equal to it."” This from a man of whom the most the world said, when one of Mr. O'Rourke’s pupils had won the world’s championship: “The se- cret of O’Rourke’s success I cannot un- derstand. Wonderful endurance and an inexhaustible supply of nerve force dis- tinguishes the men he coaches from their opponents in every battle.” For the past eleven years Mr. O'Rourke has been recognized as the greatest trainer in the world. While he was coaching George Dixon, that young ath- lete was the world’s champlon. Sharkey, | who was at first a rough and tumble glant, under O'Rourke’s training devel- oped into an even-tempered, hardy, strong, rugged boxer. | The above unsolicited words from Mr. | o'Rourke, who, by the way, has been the | owner of the Broadway Athletic Club, | the Lenox Club, the Coney Island Club | and Royals Golf Club, and who is known to be one of the finest gentlemen among | the devotees of the manly art. tell the | whole story. He found in Paine’s Celery Compound nature’s food for the nerves. While this remedy has affected thou- sands of cures among those who are sick, and has restored to healthy life innum- erable men and women whose nervous systems have been shattered, and who were suffering from the symptoms of the beginning of a deep-rooted impairment of the nervous system—it is worth noting that even in those exhausting contests where absolutely perfect nerves are pre- eminently needed, this remedy has also been found equally as beneflcial in re- pairing the exhaustion due to the high | training. If such men, who require above every- thing else—above muscles (which camnmnot develop without good nerves); above cour- age, which no man with weak nerves ever had—who require above everything | else perfect nerves—if such men have | found it necessary to feed the merves and brain with the food nature requires—it is good proof that this greatest of all reme- dies, the discovery of one of America’s | ablest professors, accomplishes all that is | claimed for it. | Every man or woman whose nervous | system is not in perfect condition will find that this remedy will make it so!
