18 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, AUGUST 10, 1902. ‘ ———— 1 DR. KILMER'S SWAMP-ROOT. A LETTER TO OUR READERS. NEW HAVEN, Addison Co., Vt. Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y. Gentlemen—About a year ago I was suffering from what I supposed was rheumatism. I became so bad that I could hardly get on my feet from a sitting position. I ran down in weight from one hundred and ninety-five to_a | hundred and forty-five pounds. I tried | different kinds of medicine, but received | little or no help. I saw Dr. Kilmer's | Swamn-Root highly recommended for | kidney trouble, but I never had any idea that my kidneys were affected. 1| thought I would try a fifty-cent bottle of Swamp-Root and see what the effect | would be. I commenced taking it “ac- cording to directions and in a few days | I saw that it was helping me. I used| the fifty-cent bottle and then bought two more dollar bottles, and they com- | pletely cured me, I have got back to | my original weight, one hundred and| ninety-five pounds, and I am a thor- | h advocate of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root Very Truly, { Feb. 17, 1902 WM. M. PARTCH. | You may have a sample bottle of | this wonderful regedy, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, sent’ absolutely free by | mail, also a book telling all about Swamp-Reot. If you are already con- vinced that Swamp-Beot is what you | need, you can purchase the regular| and one-dollar size bottles at | g stores everywhere. Don't make | y mistake, but remember the name, | Swamp-Root, Dr. Kilmer's Swamp- Root, and the address, Binghamton, | N.

The organization reached here yesterday morning. There were thirty members in the party in command of Captain Nay- lor. The Knights reached this city by the Southern route. Owing to a misun- | derstanding the company was not met by | the committee. It appears they were ex: pected to come in at another depot and | the committee waited patiently for their coming until informed ‘that they had ar- | rived and were escorted to theis | quarters. The Colorado representatives , | were accompanied by their wives and rel- | | atives, They were the first to partake of | breakfast in camp at the Pavilion. The Colorado company comes here with | |a determination to win the trophy for ! | having the best drilled company in the | | orGer.” The men have been in tralning | | for the event for the last year and have | {all their maneuvers down to a nicety. | | Captain Naylor stated that if any other | drill corps surpassed them he would take | coff his hat, He says his boys are up in tactics and If not attacked with stage | fright will give a splendid exhibition oa the floor of the Pavilion. That the com- pany can drill was evidenced by the man- ner in which they marched and took their places at the command of their superior | officer. An escort, composed of members of Nos. 56, 52 and 3 of the local lodges, and the reception committee awaited the coming of every train and when the visitors poured -oft the boat "they were received with cheers and music. As each Uniform ; Rank arrived they were escorted up Mar- ket street to Mechanics’ Pavilion, where they were assigned quarters. The Mechanics’ Pavilion is in readiness for the visitors. It has been turned into a gigantic barracks. Tents have been erected on each side of the main floor and that portion of the structure known as “Machinery Hall” has been converted , into a large dining hall. Tables have | been set to accommodate 1000. A chef and | numerous assistants bave a cooking place in the rear of the bullding. The Pavilion has been decorated in the colors of the organization. The headquarters of the major general are very inviting. They are located in a beautifully decorated tent that is lighted with incandescent lamps. On the upper floors of the big structure hundreds of cots have been placed for the incoming Knights. For the next ten days they will live and take their meals in the Pavilion. It is belleved the ac- commodations will not be sufficlent for the large number who are coming. A force of thirty regulars from the Pre- sidio, through the courtesy of Colonel J. B. Rawles, commander of the post, were busy yesterday setting up the tents that are to be used by the members of the California brigade of the Uniform Rank. The work was being carried on under the supervision of Colonel Abbott and other officers of the Uniform Rank. This jcamp is located on the large vacant lot in the rear of the row of frame buildings facing on Market street, between Tenth and Eleventh, with entrance from each of the two streets last named. Five hrndred tents are to be set upon brigade and regimental streets. and these will accommodate two men each. A mess tent seventy feet long will also be erect- ' ed. Lack of space prevents the laying out of the camp as it was originally con- templated, consequently the tents are crowded. It is expected that it will be completed to-night and will be occupied by a number of the California contingent that will arrive to-day and that by li n- day night every tent will be occupled. r head- | Furniture, T s e d.

PORT AU PRINCE, Augh9.—About 403 volunteer Fouchardists supported by a | regular regiment attacked Petit Goave | yesterday. After a severe battle, General Chicoye, the Firminist commander, left the town after having first set fire to it. The fire destroyed the place almcst en- tirely, only two German halls resisting the flames. The killed and wounded during the en- gagement were numerous on both sides. tacking troops and fifteen wounded men who hadgtaken refuge in a house were burned to death. CAPE HAYTIEN, Aug. 9.—The gunboat Crete-a-Pierrot, which is in the Firminist | service, debarked troops and marines yesterday afternoon and during the night | at various points near this city and | cruised around outside the harbor. The | residents here are much frightened, fear- ing a bombardment of the town, but the fo?gn colony is calm, thanks to the pro- | te€tion afforded by the presence of the United States gunboat Machias, Com- mander McCrea having taken all caution necessary to protect as much as possible the lives and property of foreigners here. General Albert Saliave, cominandant of he Artibonite Firminist troops, has com- | pletely defeated the army of the Provi- sional Government, under General Alexis Nord, at Limbe, capturing General Nord's cennon and ammunition. Many of Gen- eral Nord's soldiers were killed and a great number taken prisoners. General Salnave coniinues his march on Cape Haytlen, an attack hourly expected. WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.—The Navy De- | partment this morning received the fol- lowing cablegram from Commander Mc- Crea of the gunboat Machias, dated Cape Haytien, August ¥: i “Haytien gunboat landed force Cape Haytien on Friday afternoon. Another regiment is hourly expected. Will be ready to land.” { Cor};mander McCrea is under general in- | ! structions_to protect American interests and in addition yesterday received special instruetions to prevent the cutting of the cable of the United States and Haytien Company. This is not a French company, as referred to yesterday, but Is purely an American company, being part of the Commercial Company’s system. : Commander McCrea will confine himseif | strietly to that mission and will not take | i sides either for or against the de facto government. Great confldence is reposed in the ability and coolheadedness of Com- | mander McCrea and no fresh instmcllons] were considered necessary.

A Colt rapid-fire gun, which she has aboard, could be sent ashore with a landing party.. The Ma- | chias has eight 4-inch guns in_her main battery, four 6-pounders and two 1- pourders in ber secondary battery, all rapid-fire, and under the threat of these guns it is quite unlikely that either the Haytien gunboat or General ¥Firmin's force ashore would care to make an issue. - ; TR ling | medicine on board was absurd and that | A T awing cabiegram Ly | the conditions of the ship were directly | | responsible for the epidemic and deaths | to-day sent the following cabies Commander McCrea of the Machias: | “Your actlions are approved..

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.—Prince Chen, China’s special envoy to the coronation, and his suite arrived from England to- | day. Vice Consul Lockwing of the New York ! Chinese consulate officiated as master of | ceremonies in_ the reception of Prince | Chen at the Waldorf-Astoria. The com- mittee of Chinese merchants was assem- | bled in one of the parlors and was ad- | dressed briefly by the Prince in his native | language. He told them that.he was a | happy man to meet such a prosperous looking body of his countrymen, and wished them all future prosperity. He ' told them that they were in a beautiful | country, but hoped they would all return ! to China some day and live in quiet and luxury. He hoped to meet them all again. | Lunch was then served to the-Prince and his suite in their apartments. In the afternoon Assistant Secretary Plerce and Colonel Reynolds made a formal call on the Prince in behalf of the | President and the Mayor. Prince Chen will go from here to Niagara Falls.

POINT RICHMOND, Aug. 9.—Two bull- | fights took place here to-day, one at 4:30 jand one at 9:40 p. m. Matador Enrico Robles Chico Reito demonstrated wonderful courage at the | atternoon fight, in which were savage | and ferocious bulls from the James ranch, South San Francisco. On two occasions the matador came near being gored. The fight lasted about an hour. To-night’s contests were witnessed by a large crowd. Bulls not used before were in the ring. The toreadors were kept busy seeking protection behind wooden guards. One bovine, full of rage, made almost continuous 'charges for twenty-five minutes. It charged with | fierce " snorting and tried to gore the | wooden guards to reach the toreadors, while the matador most of the time re- mained in the open in front of the mad- dened animal. President-Cuiry came near being struck from the amphitheater of the arena. Big crowds are expected to-morrow aft- ernoon and evening. Charged With Watchman’s Murder.
