NEW YORK, June 7.—Robert Jefferson | | Ferral, an actor, and the son of a prom- | | inent San Francisco attorney, killed him- self by taking poison to-night. His | friends say he had been despondent for | some time. | | _The young man mentioned in the above | dispatch was the son of ex-Judge Rob- | ert Ferral of this city. The news of his tragic death has prostrated his parents, | His father has wired for particulars and | has also instructed the proper perso: | to have the body embalmed and sent to | \thls city for interment. Ferral was nearing his twenty-fifth | birthday when he ended his life. He had | been _educated in the public schools of | 82n Francisco and had sradusted with lmnnrq from the Lowell High School. He quently emtered the Hastings Law | naga with the intention of following { nis father's profession. He always dis- | played a fondness for the stage and ob- mlnr-d his parents’ permission to go to New York and follow his natural bent. | Five years ago he left this city and st | cured employment at Keith’s Theater as | press agent. Up to a year ago he held | this position. He was naturally of a 1i erary turn of mind and devoted his leis- ure to writing and rewriting sketches. He resigned his position to take a place in a stock company. He was doing well and his letters to his parents did not indicate melancholia. He seemed to be in a pros- perous condition and if he needed money all he had to do was to wire his father for funds.

General Christian Dewet is personally superintending the surrender of the Boers in the Vredefort, Orange River Colony district. General Schalk-Burger, former acting President of the Transvaal, who is the guest of the Governor of Natal, Colonel Sir Henry Edward McCallum, at Pieter- maritzburg, in an address to the burghers in the concentration camp asked them to make the best of the situation and to for- get and forgive the past. He pointed out the hopelessness of continuing the stru gle, urged the Boers to accept and act in | accordance with the terms of the sur-| render, which he intended to uphold, and desired them to work for the good of South Africa.

KILMER'S SWAMP-RuUws HOW TO FIND OUT. Fill a bottle or common glass with your water and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates an un- healthy condition of the kidneys; if It stains the linen it is evidence jof kidney trcuble; too frequent desire to pass it, or pain in the back is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney and bladder rem- edy, fulfills every wish in curing rheuma- tism, pains in the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to held water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the ex- traordinary effect of Swamp-Root Is soon realized. It stands the highest for its wonderful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you shouid have the best.
