ANTA CRUZ, May 2.—Death made a sudden call for Dr. Charles Wil- liam Dovle, the well known writer, as he sat reading Milton's “‘Para- | dise Lost” in his office last night. He'was found unconscious on the floor this morning, the open volume of immor- tal song beside him. Physicians tried vainly to revive the dying man, but the stroke of apoplexy which had robbed him of consclousness was but herald of the death to ensue a few hours later.

It was presumed that he had been called to the’ country to attend a patient and his absence created no apprehension. When, however, he failed to appear this morning, H. Francis Anderson and his clder son, Charles, went to the physiclan’s office in the Odd Fellows’ bullding to as- certain if he were there. On entering the room they were amazed to find him on the .floor. He was still breathing, but was in a serlous condition. A call for medical assistance was in- stantly sent out and the most prominent doctors In town sought to ameliorate the distressing condition of their colleague, but all efforts were unsuccessful. Dr. Doyle was conveyed to his home and there remained unconsclous until he died. Dr. Doyle came of a distinguished fam- fly. His father was an officer in the British army and was killed in the Sepoy rebel- lion in India. He was himself born at and it was there that he got that glimpse into the true life of In- dla which made his book, ""The Taming of the Jungle,” so famous. He graduated with honors at Aberdeen in 1875 and prac- ticed as a physician and surgeon in Eng- land until 1888, when he made a tour of About fifteen years ago he came to Santa Cruz and ranked here as a physician. He soon commenced liter- ary work and wrote much for the maga- zines. His literary productions acquired very wide prominence. His most notable work, “The Taming of the Jungle,” re- celved great praise wherever the English | tongue Is spoken and many editions were published. “The Shadow of Quong Lung,” a realistic story of Chinese life, also reached a big circulation. His humorous sketches and translations display excep- tienal art and judgment. Dr. Doyle leaves a wife, two sons and two daughters. The body will be sent Monday morning to Cypress Lawn, in San Mateo County, for cremation. L o B e i o UREGON PLAGERS BREAK RECORDS Season Is Immensely Profitable in South of the State. Rloas e sl Special Dispatch to The Call. GRANTS PASS, Or.,, May 2.—The one hundred and more hydraulic placer mines of the Southern Oregon red clay diggings are entering their annual clean- up or harvest. These, the first days of the golden “fruit” are witnessing a har- vest such as this section has never be- fore known. From now on till midsum- mer the gold diggers will be busy scooping the precious stuff into glitter- ing piles and bringing it in for exchange at the banking houses. 6 The output of placer gold from South- ern Oregon for this season will undoubt- edly reach $1,500,000. This season has been a very prosperous one for the sur- face miners. The rains have been long and heavy and the water supply has been abundant. A large amount of platinum has also been mined in the placer mines of ‘the surrounding district this year. This rare metal occurs with the black sand of the red clay diggings and the miners have been throwing it away for years past, not knowing how to save it. But a process has been discovered and is being put to use by all of the larger mines. ~ Orange-Laden Cars Ditched. BAKERSFIELD, May 2.—An extra or- ange train on the Southern Pacific was wrecked in a cut at Bealville on the Te- hachapl Mountains south of Bakersfield at 11 o'clock last night and four cars went into the ditch.

Traffic was de- layed twelve hours, the southbound Owl being held at Bakersfield until 9 o’clock this morning and the northbound going at noon. No one was hurt in the wreck, ADVERTISEMENTS.

Almont Barnes, late U. 8. Con- sul to Venezuela, S. A.. ex-Chief of Bu- reau of Statistics of State Department, now in Bureau of Statistics in Agricul- lurlL:l Department, Washington, D. C. writes: “Perana is not only a remedy for catarrhal iroubles, but equally as effactive for colds and aches arising irom the same. It is a mast excal- lent tonic for debilitatsd systems. ““Many of my friends have used it successfully, ard | have no hesita- tion in giving it my recommsnda- tion.””—AImont Barnes. Congressman Mark H. Dunnell, Nation- al Hotel, Washington, D. C., writes: “‘Your Peruna being used by myself and many of my friends and acquaintances not only as a cure for catarrh, but also as an admirable tonic for physical recu- peration, 1 gladly recommend it to all per- =ons requiring such'remedies.’ Dunuell. ‘We have letters of recommendation r!rum over fifty members of Congress, be- sides scores of other letters from men of national prominence, attesting to the vir- tues of Peruna as a catarrhal tonic.

Hart. Cherles B. Scott, County Clerk, Floyd ‘County, Ind., writes from New Albany, Ind.: “I have tried Peruna as a tonic and have found it of inestimable value to in- crease the appetite and Induce healthful sleep. It seems to relieve the system of all waste matter and to tone up and strengthen the nerves in a remarkably short time. In comparing it with other nerve tonics on the market I consider it vastly superior, and go.do many others who have tried it.”—Hon. Charles B. Scott. Peruna cures catarrh because it reaches the source of catarrh. Peruna keeps the system in a fine, healthy condition, because it restores the functions of every organ and brings vigor Mark H. | ! \ AL \\\ \ to the organic nervous sys- tem. C. D. Taylor, Supt.of Health, Clerk City Board of Health, Jack- sonville, Fla., writes: “The health of the poor of a large city is always a ques- tion of vital in- terest not only to the city of- ficials, but to every citizen. It has been a source of much satisfaction to me to find that so large a number of working people in moderate circumstances have accepted Peruna as their family medicine. It has cured a large number of cases, es- pecially of catarrh of the head, lungs and stomach, and for bullding up the general health it cannot fail but prove a help and a blessing to any community where it is generally adopted and used. I have found it an honest, reliable remedy and am pleased to indorse it."—C. D. Taylor, Clerk Board of Health. J. H. Hipplegate, Supt. of Public Works, 61 West Sixth street, Lexington, Ky.. writes:, “I find that Peruna is an excellent med- ieine, especially for catarrhal affections and all diseases leading to consumption, bronchial troubles or sypmach troubles. It also agcts as a preventive and keeps the system In a healthy condition so that it easlly throws off disease.

APPROPRIATION FOR FAIR CAUSES A CONTROVERSY Preparations for the Lewls and Clark Exposition at Portland Stopped. PORTLAND, Or., May 2.—The bullding and ground committees of the board of directors of the Lewis and Clark Exposi- tion met to-day and decided to stop all work on the fair grounds until the matter of invoking the referendum on the State appropriation of $500,000 has been settled. The Federated Trades Council last night asked every union man affiliated with it to use the referendum to vote down the appropriation for the Lewis and Clark fair. The action of the Federated Trades Council is the result of the differences which have existed for some time be- tween union men and lumber manufac- turers. Unless the referendum is invoked before May 21 the bill appropriating $500,000 for the fair will become a law. On petition of 4000 voters the Governor is obliged to call a special election and submit the question to a vote of the people. — Cars Crush Him to Death. 1.0S ANGELES, May 2.—Coroner Trout held an inquest to-day over the remains of Benjamin Morganson, a car repairer in the employ of the Santa Fe Rallway Company, who was ground to death under the wheels of a moving freight train in the freight yards near La Grande station.
