Some time ago these missionaries, who are connected with the Boyle Heights Training School for Christian Workers, went up into the mountains to preach to the Indians. They traveled in their ‘‘gos- ?el wagon' and penetrated to some of he most distant points of the mountains. Such abject distress was found, they say, that they abandoned the attempt at gos- pel preaching for the present and re- turned to seek relief for the physical needs of the unfortunate natives, who are sald to be slowly starving to death within the reach of clvilization. I. H. Cammack, acting principal of the training school, has been doing all in his power to obtain for the unfortunates such immediate relief as can be got from citi~ zens of Los Angeles. The result is that the missionaries will return with a wagon load of provisions and clothing and some money, but the: will be wholly inade- quate to the ne of the Indians. An effort will be made to arouse more inter- est and obtain further help, in order that the Indfans may not be left in utter des- titution while they are waliting for Bisho, Joseph Johnson of the Episcopal church Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. SALINAS, Feb. '15.—J. B. Leonard, whose home is belleved to have been in Santa Cruz, and who was known to many residents of this vicinity, met death last night in the Southern Pacific vards in San Luis Oblspo. His body was found beside the rails this morning, so badly mangled that {dentification was impos- sible, but a photograph of Leonard's wife, found in one of his pockets, supplied the clew by which the name of- the unfor- tunate man was learned. ' Leonard has been working as a black- smith in Lompoc for several weeks. De- ciding tlo return to Santa Cruz he and a companion resolved to steal a rid N ,b!lnl? baggage of passenger ul'.nu: %‘o‘uoe. Lhe story of his death, as told by the un- fortunate man's comrade, follows: Leanqrd and myself were stealing a ride. When the train neared San Luis Obigpo Leonard became alarmed and said he was going to jump off, as he mignt be arrested for vagrancy if caught steai- ing a ride. In some manner he lost his grip and fell under the wheels. As soon as the train stopped I notified one of the train crew of what had occurred. We walked back some distance, but the dark- 75y prevented our finding the body at that ti Leonard’s companion is ARDILRJCRJ0 U AT AT J0 ULk R AT 40 A LA A i ik NOE-ST.

TEN YEARS FOR HALL + AND FAIR ACCOMPLICE Man and Woman Who Robbed Trunks in a Railroad Depot Receive Sentences. SAN DIEGO, Feb. 15.—Judge Torrance of the Superior Court to-day sentenced H. R. Hall and his partner in crime, Belle Grosh, who was indicted under the name of Bessie Hall, to serve ten years cach in the penitentiary. They were found guilty of grand larceny, in having broken open baggage at the Santa Fe depot, where Hall was the night operator. From the trunk of Mrs. W. H. H. Stowell, wife ¢f a New York Senator, who was stop- ping at the Coronado Hotel, they took diamonds of a value of $2000, which were easily traced to them. Hall's attorneys fought every step in the suit and kept the trial before the court for nearly a month. This morning motions for a new trial and for a stay of proceedings were denied and the sen- tence fixed. It is ordered that Hall be taken to Folsom penitentiary and the woman to San Quentin. Bessle Hall passed here as Hall's sister, but after her arrest it was found that she was the wife of D, E. Grosh, an en- gineer on the Banta Fe, whom she had deserted to go with Hall.

Last week he broke into a house at that place and stole-a guitar and a violin. e_was arrested on a charge of burglary. Martinez claimed he had mere- ly taken the instruments to play at a dance, and intended to return them, and as the owner did not care to prosecute the charge was reduced to petty larceny, The man pleaded guilty and "was sen- tenced to 120 days in the County Jail. Martinez served one term in San Quen- tin and two in Folsom for grand larceny, the crimes having been committed in Tu- lare and Monterey counties. Martinez to-night confessed to Sheriff Langford that he is the man wanted by the Monterey authorities.

This is not newspaper talk, but facts from the highest authorities in the land. HYOMEI, the new treatment, cures be- cause it kills the germs of coughs, croup, catarrh, bronchitls and consumption, and all you have to do is to inhale it for a few moments daily. ou wish to keep your cough ail w:?;‘ l‘n‘dyrun the risk of contracting more serious diseases, continue as you are _with stomach medicines.

' M The Catarrhal Curse. rrh is as much a curse to-day as ma- larfa and fever plagues to the hot swamps of Florida. It's in the air, like an inherent and undying contagion. Everybody is atrald of it, everybody is interested in it, and It is just as interesting to be saved from it, or to be cured of it.-as It Is to die from it. Thers ara thousands of people in San Francisco to-day who have some imperceptible germ taint of catarrh in the system, as well as vast nume bers of people in whom those germ taints have developed into chronic aillments of varying de- gree of malignity, suffering and danger. In most instances the difficulty is aggravated by the fact that the victims cannot diagnoss thetr miseries or distinguish the cause of them. The fact 1s, a majority of common chronis diseases, though known as bronchial trouble, lung trouble, kidney trouble, stomach troubls, etc., are really of acatarrhal origin and na- ture. Every part of the mucous membrane— the nose, throat, eyes, ear, head, lungs, stom- ach, Hver, bowels, bladder, kidneys—are sub- Ject to disease and blight by catarrh. Most physicians have not the time to devote much Sudy <o this alsense. for Bave they the neces- sary apparatus and training to successtully treat it. Drs. Shores have made a litelong study of catarrh in all its forms and. have treated thousands of cases, and the unanimous Yerdict of their patients is that DRS. SHORES CAN AND DO CURE CATARRH.
