Sc INSANE MOTHER HURLS BABE OUT OF WINDOW Little Ome Lands in a Clump of Shrubbery and Escapes Injury. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18—Mrs. Lizzie Lampton became suddenly insane last night, and belleving that her enemies were trying to obtain possession of her cight-monthe-old child to kill it she threw the baby out of a window. The child landed in a dense growth of shruo- bery and escaped injury. When the rela- tives of the woman arrived she coolly told them what she had done. She was taken into custody, and at the police sta- tion became so violent that she had to be put under the influence of an oplate. During a lucid interval the woman told the police that her relatives were Chris- tian Scientists and had tried to make her embrace that doctrine. 'When she refused they tried to hypnotize. her. She will be examined on Monday by a commission appointed by the court. * —_——— It isr’t the girl who fires up quickest who makes the best match, BECOMING A MOTHER Is an ordeal which all women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compares with the pain and horror of child-birth, The thought of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother of all pleasant anticipations of the coming event, and casts over her a shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women have found that the use of Mother’s Friend during pregnancy robs confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all 'women at the time of their most icritical, trial. Not only does Mother’s Friend carry women safely through the perils of child-birth, but its use gently prepares the system for the coming event, prevents ‘‘morning sickness,”” and other dis- comforts of this period.

The kind Wide and narrow To-morrow ' the ASK FOR APPOINTMENT.. OF THREE RECEIVERS Prune Growers Would Close ‘the Af- fairs of the Cured Fruit Association.. _ SAN JOSE, Oct. 18—A new tack has been ‘taken by the fruit growers; to close the affairs of the California Cured Fruit Association. A committee récently “ap- pointed at a meeting of fruit growers is taking steps to have three receivers ap- pointed. Circulars asking growers to take this step are being sent out, and inclosed is a card which they are asked to sign. As soon as-the consent-of the growers is obtained the case will be taken into the courts. W. P. Lyon, E. T. Pettit and C. W. Childs are named as the receivers to be appointed. Each has agreed'to undertake the task of closing up the association for a compensation of $600, no matter what the length of time may be. The written consent of two-thirds of the members will be necessary under the by-laws, All the. assets of the Califorrta Cured Fruit Association have been disposed of, and all that remains is the claim against the Packers’ Company. This amounts to about $125,000, but as the directors of the association refuse to compromise, which the packers have consented to do at the request of many growers, there is prom- ise of it being frittered away in the courts. The heavy expense the assocla-~ tion is under pending the outcome of the suits recently commenced has led the growers to take their present action. e g aeivs. ENGINES GOLLIDE - |MEXICANS JAIL N h HEANY OB b TN CREW Freight Wreck in the - Santa Fe Yards in Los Aigeles. Three Men Are Injured arnd Both of the Loccmotives Demolished. Special Dispatch to The Call. LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18.—In a collision between a northbound freight train and a switching engine in the Santa Fe freight ‘yards at 7:30 o'clock this morn- ing, three persons were injured and the company sustained & property loss esti- mated at $20,000. The wreck occurred at River, just inside the yard limits, and ‘was due to the fact that an unusually Leavy fog obscured the track and made two trains to see what was ahead of them. > the Ninth-street crossing of Los Angeles ; it impossible for those in charge of the | It s customary for the through freight, | which arrives at about 7:20 o’clock in the morning, to take a siding within 200 yards of the spot where the collision occurred, and the track is always left open for that train. The conductor of the switching crew had a string of cars which he want- ed to place on that same sldfng and he took the chance of exceeding the yard limits long enough to do his switching. In the dense fog the freight train crashed into the switching train, wrecking both lccomotives and a dozen or more cars and strewing merchandise along the right of way for a distance of more.than a block. William E. Coombs, engineer of the freight train, remained in his cab and was caught between the tender and the boiler an fireman bf the switch engine, was caught by a flying plece of debris as he jumped and severely injured. The injuries to the two men will prevent their working for several weeks, but no serious conse- quences are expected. One other man was slightly hurt. The main line of the Santa Fe tracks was blockaded for three hours until a wrecking train from San Bernardino ar- rived.

Threngs of children, at- tended by their grown-up relatives, gazed rapturously at the garlands of lanterns suspended from the ceilings of the Maple room, bought dolls and chocolate mice and munched candy to their hearts’ con- tent. Mrs. H. B. Montague had arrange- ments for the afternoon in her charge, and the features proved entertaining be- yond all expectations. Mrs. Montague also presided at the doll booth, assisted by Miss Alice Hillard and Miss Hilda Van Sicklin of Alameda. Miss Evelyn Nor- wood and iss Jeanette Hooper have charge of the juvenile postoffice, in which many notes and parcels were left and re- ceived by the young guests. The post- office for adults was under the direction of the young ladies of the maln auxiliary. Mrs. Douglas Watson and Mrs. R. W. Harrison presided over the fish pond. The musical programme of the afternoon was rendered by children. Mrs. C. C. Darling coached the young performers, and cer- tainly bad reason to be proud of her ef- forts.” Helen Darling made a declded hit in her pretty dances and costumes. Three little Chinese children, brought from the Mission by Miss Brown, danced and sang in English, much to the enjoyment of the onlookers. H. B.

No doubt 2 simple case of leucorrhoea, which, al- lowed to run" unchecked in its first stage, has de- veloped into something more serlous. Leucorrhoea, commonly known as ‘‘whites,” although not a disease In itself, is an aggra- vating symptom of falling of the womb, pain- ful or irregular menstruation, derangement and general weakness of the organs of generation. In time it impoverishes the blood, poisons the Eystem and causes vital stagnation. It quickly saps a_woman's vitality, draws the dolor from tHe face, expression from the eyes and all grace and ~elasticity from her movements.

The Call. TUCSON, Ariz., Oct. 18—As a result of a difastrous freight wreck at Agua Prieta, Scrora, which caused the death of a num- ber of Mexicans who were stealing rides or ‘loafing in the yards, four American trainmen were thrown into jail, “inco- municado,” by the authorities. Agua Prieta is a small place across the line from the new town of Douglass. It iz the junction of the El Paso apnd South- western and the Nacozari railroads. The accident there occurred yesterday after- noon. A switch engine with a long string of box cars broke loose on the American side, colliding with other box cars across the line. Four Mexicans, who had been drinking mescal, are known to have’been killed and several others were {hjured. The train crew, consisting of Engineer Ed Patterson, Fireman Fred McDonough, Yardmaster George Masters and Switch- man F. H. Kidd, all of the El Paso and Southwestern Railroad, were seized by the Mexican authorities, and, despite thels protestations, were thrQun into jall. ‘As ‘soon as the fact became generally known in Douglass, where the men resid- ed, the people of that town rose up in arms and at last accounts this morning a mob was being formed to cross the line, batter down the Mexican jail and release the prisoners. The movement was started among the railroad employes in Douglass, who feared that the trainmen would be hustled off to Arispe without trial. Superintendent Morgan of the Nacoz- ari Railroad intervened and tried to per- suade the leaders of the movement to de- lay action until he could see the Mexican Judge and, if possible, obtain the release of the prisoners. He addressed the angry crowd and prevented a rush from being made immediately. The result of his con- ference with .the Mexican authorities will dctermine whether . trouble is to be averted. L e e e e e el thy. Tiny dolls were dressed as are the incurable patients, with bandages, welghts, etc., and placed in little beds, wlhich were the fac simile of those in use at the hospital. Every detail was car- ried out in the imitation, even the linen of the endowed beds being embroidered with -the varigus initials. Tiny' bottles, tablés, chairs and even'record sheets, duly inscribed, carried out the idea. In the evening no extended programme was given, the raflles occupying the prin- cipal attention. The boys of the Hebrew Orphan Association rendered musical se- lections. ‘There was very little expense connected with giving the feast of lan terns, and the financial success is pleas- | | ing to the board of managers. The following patrons were prize win- ners: Miss Mabel Gunn, Mrs. Sharon's large doll; Mrs. Louis Sloss, rag doll; Mrs. Robert Ox- nard, blue French doll; Miss Kohl, vase; Mrs. Koos, “cutglass _bowl; Dr. Watkins, ' Keith painting; Mrs. Robert Oxnard, Mrs. Caswell's fan; Miss “Meyers, “‘Little Jim ward”; Mr. Leibmann, leather suit case. - The tea at the Protestant Episcopal Old Ladies’ Iome yesterday afternoon was largely attended. Many friends filled" the rcoms between the hours of 2 and 5. Artistic decorations of cut flowers added much brightness to the scene. The lady managers who assisted iIn recelving were: Mrs, R. B.

The programme of dances was under the direction of Alan W. Maginis, assisted by Dr. J. Claude Perry and the other members of the club. Invitations were issued to-100 couples. The hall was very prettily decorated with festoons and streamers of white and yellow. Greens and floral decorations also added to its attractiveness. A large star draped with the club's colors hung from the center of the hall, and a new and very effective feature was the use of red incandescent lamps, which shed their light from every nook and corner and added much to the beauty of the scene. This club has given many pretty hops in the past, but this one far excelled pre- vioas cotillons, -and the tasteful decora- tions, the beautiful young ladies.and the delightful evening’s’ enjoyment will not soon be forgotten by those attending.

Fifteenth Street, Philadelphia, Pa., March 10, 1901 Dear Sirs: I have now used four bot- tles of your Malt Whiskey,. and think I owe my life to this whiskey. I am 67 years or more. About six weeks ago I was so sick I years old and have had catarrh of the | | nose, throat and head for twenty-five | I am hard of hearing. | could not eat, sleep and hardly able to walk. Felt more like dying than living. ‘Was under a doctor’s care and taking all kinds of drugs and medicine, douches, solutions in nose, etc. The doctor nearly blew my head away with a powerful afr pump—medicated air, he called it. It did absolutely nothing in my case. I threw everything away—medicine, air pump, douches—and commenced on Duffy’s Pure Malt Whiskey. I felt better from the start. I take one ounce with water be- fore and after each meal and at bedtime, and now, after using four bottles, I can eat and drink and sleep well, and I feel better to-day than I have for twenty years. I was opposed to all kinds of lquor and used Tmone for twenty-five years. I use Duffy’s as a medicine only, and shall continue to use it as long as I live, if I can get it. I know it will keep me alive, and may in time improve my hearing. I hope it will. Yours very sincerely, V. SCOTT. A LATER LETTER. Dear Sir: I have improved some since | writing you before, only occasional cough | and very little discharge from nose.
