Special Dispatch to The Call. FRESNO, May 20.—A. Ranna, who lives was assaulted last night by three masked footpads, beaten into insensibility, robbed of his watch and money and then stabbed in several places with a pocket-knife. Ranna works in the country and was on his way home about 8:30 o'clock. Sud- denly three men sprang upon him from the shadow of a tree and one dealt him a stunning blow with a club. Despite his dazed condition he attempted to fight, but the men overpowered him and while two held him the third went through his pockets and took his watch and a small amount of change. Then they com- menced kicking the fallen man until he lost consciousness. One of them cut him several times with a knife. The cuts, though painful, are not dangerous. Ranna lay in the road for hours uncon- scious. About 3 o'clock this morning he recovered his senses, but being still dazed wandered aimlessly about town until a policeman noticed his bloody appearance and gained the story from him. The as- sault was committed within a block of Ranna's home. A suit of clothes he car- ried with him was found at the scene of the struggle this mornirg, the thieves having gone through all the pockets. —_————————— Yolo’s Grain Promises Well. WOODLAND, May 20.—So far as the weather is concerned the conditions could hardly be more favorable for the grain crops. The days are very pleasant and the nights are unusually cool. Wheat is filling out well. If Yolo has twenty days of such weather the heads will be full and the berry plump. Half the hay crop ix in shocks or windrows and the farmers are working early and late to get it stacked or under shelter before it is over- taken by a May shower. ———————— Postoffice Business Increases.

Speclal Dispatch to The Call. SANTA ROSA, May 20.—Albert, the was gored by an infuriated bull to-day in a pasture about four miles from this city. That his life was rpared was due to a couragcous assault on the animal by his elder brother, Car] Rathbone. The boys had entered the enclosure where the bull was kept and were pursu- ing their way when the animal bellowed loudly and made for them with lowered | head. Albert Rathbone was caught by | the horns cf the animal and thrown high in the air. When he descended the mad- dened animal continued the onslaught. The youth was soon rendered unconseious | and his head and face were torn and | bleeding. | Carl Rathbone had in the meantime se- cured a fence rafl and rushed to the | assistance of his brother. He struggled with the bull for a considerable length of time and each time he diverted the animal's attention from the prostrate form of the brother the bull would return to the attack with renewed vigor. A rural mail carrier finally came to the assistance of the youths and the animal was driven away. When the injured youth regained nsciousness he drove home alone, unhitched his horse and placed the animal in the stable before | seeking medical attention. His body pre- | sented a mass of bruises and contusions and his escape from death is considered remarkable. One wound on his forehead required four stitches. ——e———— | FIRE LOSSES REACH HIGH INTO THOUSANDS | Blaze at Stockton Far More Serious | Than at First Esti- | mated.

NAPA, May ‘While trying to make his escape Michael Frache, one of the| i most dangerous patients confined in the Napa Hospital for the Insane, was killed by falling from a window of one of the wards at 12:15 o'clock this morning. He fell from the third floor, a distance of sixty feet. Frache had escaped twice, but was cap- tured. Once he traveled as far as Wash- ington, D. C., before he was found. He had often threatened the life of the night watchman, and it is believed that he would have stopped at nothing in accom- plishing his escape. He had unraveled the worsted in his socks and used the threads to tie the ends of his blankets to- gether. These he had dropped from the ADVERTISEMENTS.

The better class of druggists, everywhere, are men of scientific attainments and high integrity, who devote their lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians’ prescriptions and scientific formula. ~ Druggists of the better class manufacture many excellent remedies, but always under original or officinal names and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines. They are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the finest and best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances. The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package. They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction. Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the immense demand for it, imitations have been made, tried and condemned, but there are individual druggists to be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignity and principles of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. sometimes have the name—* Syrup of Figs”—or “Fig Syrup” and of some piratical concern, or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on the package, but they never have the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of the package. should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes off on a customer a preparation under the name of “Syrup of Figs” or “Fig Syrup,” which does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package, he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of physicians’ prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness. Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every- where, in original packages only, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions exist it is necessary to inform the public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return If it does not bear the full name of the Company— California Fig Syrup Co.—printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class of druggists who will sell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices. sold to them.

REDDING, May 20.—Lory Nites, an 15- year-old boy, who is no larger than an ordinary boy of 14, while riding a frac- tious colt gave a remarkable exhibition of horsemanship shortly before noon to- day and probably saved from one to three human lives. John Fisher, night foreman of the Kes- wick smelter, brought down his wife, his sister-in-la—, Miss Myrtle Morgan, and the 2-year-old son of John L. Cannon to see the President. They had started home in a surrey, when Mr. Fisher alighted to go into a business house. The two horses took fright and started on a hard run down the street with the two ladies and the infant in the vehicle behind them. There was no one to hold the lines. After two blgcks had been traversed an obstruction knocked off one rear wheel. The frightened horses continued on their | run, turning down the main street of the city, which was crowded with people at the time. Women screamed and men were startled. Young Nites sprang on his colt and took after the runaways, grasped the bit of one horse and hung on until the team was brought to a stop. The oc- cupants of the surrey were not hurt. An enthusiastic crowd of onlookers cheered the brave boy and took up a lib- eral collection for him. Five-dollar pleces were among the coins thrown in the hat. ——e————— OF INTEREST TO PEOPLE OF THE PACIFIC COAST Lieutenant Colonel Miller Is Relieved From Duty in Quartermaster’s Department in This City.

PHILADELPHIA, May 20.—A dispatch received at the Maritime Exchange an- nounces that the British bark Skoda has arrived at Black River, Jamaica, and re- ports that on April 20, 250 miles off Cape Charles, she passed through water cov- ered for miles with oil. This probably ex- plains the loss of the tanker S. V. Luck- enbach, which left Sabine Pass March 19 for Marcus Hook, Pa., loaded with oil.

Guidott! ran amuck at Glen Ellen yesterday and in his thirst for blood attempted to shoot three persons. He only succeeded in get- ting a shot at G. Ceccarelli, a fellow- countryman, who caused his arrest on & charge of assault with a deadly weapon. He declares he will kill Constable Allen, who made the arrest, as soon as he is released from jail. A woman, whose name has not been learned, was among the number who incurred the wrath of Gui- dotti. She escaped by barricading herseif in her residence until the would-be mur- derer had devarted. When Ceccarelli appeared on the scene he was instantly taken for a target, and owes his life to the unsteady aim of the shooter. When Constable Allen sought to arrest Guidotti he attempted to wreak his vengeance on that official and had to be clubbed into submission. —_—— ' Cashier of Bank a Heavy Defaulter.
