MEADE POST HOLDS INSTALLATION Five of the F&tmer Commanders Induced to Accept Offices for Another Term. The new officers of General George G. Meade Post No. 45, Grand Army of the Republic, were Installed In the Pioneer building last Tuesday night by Past Post Commander A. k. Leavitt. A noteworthy fact in connection with the installation was that five former post commanders Jaccepted office for this term. The reason for this is that the membership is be- coming smaller year by year. General Shechan was post commander ten years ago and at the unanimous request of the members consented to serve again in or- der that the old post named for the vic- torious general of the battle of Gettys- burg may put on a good front when the National Encampment meets here next August, The Jadies of Meade Relief Corps as- sisted at the installation service. Rhere was a programme of entertainment, with musical selections by Walter . Howe and Herbert Thaver and bugle calls and vil War. The new officers are: ohn F. Sheehan, commander; T. Graham, senior vice com- mander: John C. Scott, junior vice com- mander; William . Howe, quartermaster; Joseph Washington, surgeon; Albion E. Leavitt, chaplain: D. M. Cashin, officer of the day; Willlam S. Small, officer of the guard; Samuel C. Smith, sergeant major; Samuel W. Knowles, quartermas- ter sergeant; Robert P. Dewey, sentinel; Phil N.

PRESIDENT HOLLAND SAYS CHAPMAN WILL NOT GO Head Officer of United Railroads Sends a Communication to The Call. The announcement published in The Call that George F. Chapman’s regime as general manager of the United Rall- roads was to be of short duration was eagerly discussed in railroad circles yes- terday. It is a repetition of the old story of President Hays of the Southern Pa- cific and Manager Fillmore. All the offi- cials denied that they were to go, but they went. Yesterday President Holland of the United Railroads threw up his hands when Chapman's retirement was men- tioned and could not say enough nice things about him. Last evening President Holland sent in the foliowing communication to The Call: SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 7, 1903. To the Editors of The Call: An article in this morning’s Cail states that It is sald that the president of the United Railroads has al- ready decided who will succeed Mr. Chapman as_ gensral manager of the company. It 1s due to Mir. Chapman to say that the statement is without foundation and that the idea of dispensing with the valuable services of Mr. Chapman has never occurred to the management of this company, who have full confidence in hir and who fake pleasure in testifying to their appreciation of the exc lent work he has done, and in this it is be- lieved that the pubiic heartily join. With the request that in justice to Mr. Chapman this statement be made by your Journal in your next issue, I am, vours re- Spectrully, ARTHUR HOLLAND, President’ of the United Railroads of 'San Franelsco. ———————— Tailor Is Robbed.

Cross and Mooney were called tn and administered starch. which coun- teracted the effects of the bOisUD Y BACK.” A man came to me some time ago and complained of a pain in his back, nothing much, enly it bothered him ar times. He would do nothing for it then, but if it got worse would come in. The next day he fell down in the street ralyzed from his hips down. p‘l.imk out for that pain in mr back. It comes and goes, and you t mind it, but with each lr::lnm know it is worsé, and you eother symptoms with it. You have a weak fesling about the kidneys, are tired in the morn- ing and don't feel like going to work. In the afternoon you feel stupid and lack the energy to hustle, you go to bed tired and don’ tsleep well. You have not the courage and “go ahead” dispo- sition that you used to have, and .- mes feel as if you were getting old in viger. You are, my friend. ou are losing your youth vitality, and this T tfiin‘ will soon make you oid before You ought to do something right now, because life is sweet my when you can d\iog its swettness, and you are 100 young to feel this way.

Now don’t drug. rugs stimulate, just like whiskey, but you want real strength, and you know drugs don’t give it and Electricity does. It makes machinery go and it will make you go. Mr. E. L. Morreil, Prescott, Arizona, wrote: “I have worn the Belt two months. My Rheuma! is entirely cured and my general health very much improved. The effect was immediate.” Tell me where you live and I will give you the names of people near you whom I have cured. I have a cure in every town. Don’t put it off.
