A. P. Smilie of Alameda headed the | marching comics. He was dressed as his | Satanic Majesty in gorgeous red and | mounted upon a horse, black as the night,, that danced to an accompaniment of fire- Wworks. Then came a platoon of mock po- lice that did a drill that rivaled the figures that Captain Petersen of the Oakland po- lice force puts his squad through on state occasions. The Elks’ Carnival float, driven by Di- rector General Max Schlucter, was a very handsome affair. There was every possible character in the line, from tramps and negroes to Little Eva, Topsy, acrobats, and the man who had to walk home from bathing, in a bar- rel Every kind of vehicle that could be made to move was utilized, from a six- | mule dray to rapid moving automobiles, two-wheeled donkey carts, jinrickshaws, wheelbarrows and rol wagon. The imitation bric arty, with Deputy | County Clerk Ray Baker as footman and six pages carrying the bride's veil over | the back of the hack vied with the laun- dry fioat in raising a laugh along the route. The lion tamer sitting in a cage with one very scared cat conciuded the spectacle. It was in the grounds that the imitation police had the most to do. There the “Elkville Court and County Jail” were in full session The police patrolled the rounds, and woe betide any Elk who was 'ound_even drawing his breath. He was immediately taken before George W. Reed as “Jedge’ and fined all he had in his pockets. The detall of police for this occasion consisted of the following: S. C. Hodgkins, high constable; G, R.

AUBURN, June 16.—The real motive for the killing of Fred Nierhoff by Willlam Glover is the one topic of interest in this community, and the Coroner’s inquest to- morrow morning promises to bring out much that.is now mere speculation. Ever since Miss Nierhoff's confession, in which she stated that the Glover boys had de- liberately planned the killing of her father, the public has anxiously awaited further developments. While in the pres- ence of her affianced husband, Willlam Glover, the young lady insisted that the killing was in self-defense, but later she wavered, and as a result of the admis- sions she made Oscar Glover, a brother of the murderer, was put behind the bars. Both of the Glovers refuse to discuss the tragedy. Miss Nierhoff is but 15 years of age and very pretty. The substance of her con- fession was that the Glovers lay in wait for her father with the intention of deing away with him, but the real reason for the crime is yet to be brought out.

Valuable time is lost in fruitless efforts to heal the sore with washes and salves, because'the germs of Cancer that are multi- plying in the blood and the new Cancer cells which are constantly develop- ing keep up the irritation and discharge, and at last sharp shooting pains announce the approach of the eating and sloughing stage, and a hideous, sickening cancerous sore begins its destructive work, No ulcer or sore can exist with- out some predisposing internal cause that has poisoned the blood, and the S.8. open discharging ulcer, or the fester- ing sore on the lip, cheek or other part of the body will continue to In February, 1899, I noticed a small lump on my lower lip.
