He called a meeting of the Judges Thursday met in Judge Hebbard's cham- at the City Hall yesterday and dis- ed the question at length. At the end of an came to the conclusion that as Judge Ccok is vested with the power to assign the case to any one of them it should be left to him. None of the Judges is anx- ious to handle the case, but they all stat- ed that they will abide by Cook’s decision. Judge Cook made inquiry to ascertain what Judges would be in the city on June 30, the date fixed for the argument in the case, and learned that Judges Murasky and Troutt would be here.

ROBS EMPLOYERS - BY CUNNING RUSE William White Confesses That He Swindled Olson & Co. Expensive Liquors Are Sent From Store for Cheapest ‘Wines. Olson & Co., grocers, 715 Market street, notified the police that a thief was op- erating in their liquor department, and they estimated that about $2000 worth had been stolen during the last three or four weeks. Suspicion .pointed to William ‘White, who for the last five months had charge of the department. Captain Martin detailed Detectives Dinan and Wren on the case, and they were not long in deciding that the sus- piclon against White was borne out by facts. They ascertained that White had an accomplice, who sent in numerous or- ders for cheap wine, an¢g White would substitute the most expensive whisky, brandy or wine, the cheaper grade being charged to the accomplice. For instance, | a barrel of claret costing about 27l cents per gallon would be ordered, and White would substitute whisky or brandy cost- | ing from 33 to $4 per gallon, the claret be- ing charged. After satisfying themselves on - this point the detectives, armed with a search warrant, went to White’s rooming-house, on Turk street, Thursday night and found about $800 worth of the best brands of | whisky, brandy, champagne and other | iljquors in his rooms. It required two | wagons to convey the stuff to the prop- | erty clerk’s storerooms. { White was placed under arrest and locked up in “the tanks.” He admitted to the detectives that he had been working | his scheme for the last month with the | aid of an accomplice, but he declined to | give his name. The detectives continued | their work on the case and have succeed- ed in discovering where the remainder of | the stolen liguor has been stored. They cxgbcl to have White's accomplice in cus- tody at any moment. At least two charges of grand larceny will be booked against White. GAGE WOULD NOT HELP OLD VOLUNTEER FIREMEN Appeal to Supervisors’ Finance Com- mittee Shows Governor in an Unfavorable Light. It was demonstrated at the meeting of the Supervisors’ Finance Committee last night that Governor Gage was no friend to the members of the old volunteer fire department, thowgh he once had an op- portunity to show his friendship. J. J. | Guilfoyle, secretary of the Exempt Fire | Department, in making an earnest appeal | to the committee that a sum of money be set aside by the Supervisors to relieve the immediate necessities of the infirm | and indigent firemen, said: | ““These men are entitled to your consid- | eration, for they helped to upbuild this city by risking their lives in preventing destruction of property by fire. Further- more we would not be here asking your | aid were it not for the fact that Governor | Gage pocketed a bill passed by the last | Legislature appropriating 35000 for their | rellef. The Governor's action prevented{ the bill becoming a law. | ‘“We are very sorry,” said Chairman | Brandenstein of the committee, “‘but the charter gives us no power to grant the | relief, much as we would like to do so. | The only thing to do is to submit an | amendment to thel charter to permit of an appropriation, or live in the hope that an- other Governor may think more kindly of the old firemen and sign another bill that may be adopted.” The committee placed on file the peti- tions of M. S. Galvin and others to set aside a certain sum to provide for a re- count of the vote on the adoption of the charter and also to pay the expenses necessary to obtain signatures to a petl- tion providing for the repeal of the char- | ter. 4 PEee Thirty Days for Assault. Enrico Cano went to a grocery at 1473 Powell street Thursday night and pur- chased 6 cents’ worth of wine, 5 cents’ ‘worth of cheese and 5 cents’ worth of coal oil. He did not have a bottle for the coal oil and asked Charles Luna, the clerk, to give him one. Luna objected, as the bottle would cost as much as the profit on the ofl, and Cang got mad. Luna or- dered Cano out, but he refused to go, and Luna blew a police whistle. Cano grabbed hold of a bottle and aimed a blow at Luna. Cano was arrested for assault and | battery, and yesterday Judge Cabaniss convicted him and sentenced him to thirty | days in the County Jail. —_———— Do You Want a Trunk t a moderate price—one that looks good and is good?

Paine’sCelery Compound The Medicine That Saves Life and Restores Lost Health. A ‘merciful Providence still keeps the spark of life in thousands of wasted and feeble bodies. The fitful, flickering spark will burn with decreased power as the hot days of summer approach. There is still hope for even those who are now catching glimpses of the dark valley. The use of Paine’s Celery Compound during the month of June will at once arrest the progress of wasting diseases. It will strengthen the weak and inflamed nerves, rid the body of morbid waste | matertal, make the blood pure, and give | healthy action to the stomach, liver and | kidneys. Nervousness, sleeplessness, rheumatism, neuralgia, liver and kidney troubles quickly vanish when Dr. marvelous prescription is used. Mrs. Alice Terry Wood, 515 Highland street, Helena, Mont., says: “I can say to all that I believe Paine's Celery Compound a great medicine. I should have been in my grave if it hadn't been for the wonderful curing virtues of the Compound, and I can say to all who are tired and run down, to try it, and they will find rellef at once. My trouble was general weakness, lack of appetite and heart trouble. I have taken four bottles of Paine’s Celery Compound and feel like a new person. Now I have a UNITED STATES BRANCH.
