THE PRACTICAL DRUGGIST AND REVIEW OF RE- VIEW s “The juice of the Paw Paw more efficacious than pepsin dissolving albumen. The fruit or juice seems to have the e effect as a good digestive and is most effegtive in caseg of dyspepsia and habitual constipation.” Having combined this wonderful natural remedy with other medicaments, I positively assert that I am giving to the world the greatest stomach, blood, heart and nerve tonic known to mankind. I know Paw Paw will make worn-out stomachs almost as good as new ; will make good, rich blood and build up the ner- vous s ; will do away with both the necessity and desire for beer, whisky, wine and other injurious stimulants. A body that is overworked, a system that is run down, requires a stimulant. Alcoholic stimulants lift, but let you fall.

It leaves the affairs of the Terri- | tory in great confusion. More than half the Territorial appropriations to | carry on the departments ceased with | the end of last year, the Legislature leaving the department matters to the | county Boards of Supervisors. The Ter- \ ritorial government has to resume| charge of all the matters turned over to the Supervisors and county officials. | It is, however, without appropriations | to pay for running the various bureaus, | water works, road boards and the As- | sessor’s office. There is also no provi- | on to pay for police, the Legislature | having left all such matters to the counties. i One of the first acts of Governor Car- | ter, in view of the county act decision, was to instruct High Sheriff Brown to take charge of prisoners, county and Territorial, and to resume his general control of police affairs of all the isi- upon except that the Territory must | | immediately take hold of police affairs. With nobody in charge of jails and other police matters there might be a general delivery of prisoners, for as the law stands the so- d county officers What the Supreme Court did not de- cide in the county bill case is regarded | as of the highest importance in view | of the possibility of the Legislature try- | ing to enact another county law. The general issues raised, which apply to any county bills that may be attempt- | ed, were not considered by the court at in which the one defect found by the | court was avoided, the system might | once more be called in question. Among | the sweeping contentions brought for- | ward was that the Legislature of Ha- wail had no legal power to create a system of county government with county elections in jt. "The court did | not enter into this question. The con- tentions as to the transfer of Territorial | property to counties and:the practical | abolishment of the offices iof High Sher- iff and Superintendent of ‘Public Works are in the same class and were all| “passed up” undecided, the court find- | the taxation question. A meeting of citizens was held with { Governor Carter, when be received al- most as many diverse legal opinions as there were lawyers in the room. Business men declared themselves | strongly against county government in | any shape and also against a special | of the Legislature. But the Governor upheld the Republican party, which had tried to enact a county bill, and cabled to Delegate Ku, his repre- sentative in Washington, to push the which it is believed wiil legalize the local measure. On the other hand, a section of the business community has sent L. A. Thurston to Washington for the purpose of, opposing any such ac- tion. .

SALT LAKE, Utah, Jan. 23.—Pas- sengers arriving from Colorado over the Denver and Rio Grande tell of a hair-raising experience at Marshall Pass. Because it was two minutes late passenger train No. 316 was saved hurled hundreds of feet down the mountain side. A freight train was switching at Marshall Pass, near the apex of the mountain. An empty car was sent on the siding and struck two lumber- laden flatcars with great force. The brake chains snapped and the flatcars started down the siding for the main | track, gaining momentum every sec- ond. They moved so swiftly that the train crew was unable to head them off and they were soon thundering down the steep incline. The -passenger train was due and thee freight conductor and brakemen ully expected that the runaway cars would collide with No. 316, causing a disastrous wreck.

STOCKTON, Jan. 23.—It is proposed by the Native Sons of the Golden West to hold the next celebration of Admis- sion day—September 9—at the St. Louis Exposition. The managers of the expo- sition have set aside that date and des- ignated it California day. The Califor- nia commission ito the fair has turned the matter over to the Native Sons, and Grant President R. H. McNoble, who will preside at the celebration, has accepted the invitation on behailf of the Native Sons. Mr. McNoble will leave for Los An- geles to-morrow morning, his idea be- ing to visit all the parlors of the south- ern part of the State and secure the consensus of the various parlors on the advisability of having a parade of 10,000 Native Sons at St. Louis on September 9. There are 17,000 Native Sons, and it is believed that fully 10,000 can be in- duced to attend the celebration at St. Louis. ———————— FRANCISCAN MAKES HIS DEBUT AS PIANIST SAN Critics Comment Favorably on the Performance of Irwin E.

In contrast the brok | erage firms having a membership repre- | sentative of the large individual ope- rators whose movements are in them- | selves on a scale to dominate the mar- ket in ordinary times and whose lead- ership is looked for by a large specu- | lative following to dacide their action in the market, have been very conspic- uous in the dealings.

This kind of profe: professional operation: onal and semi- is subject to certain suspicion always in the early | | stages, owing to the ulterior purposes which m be involved, such as the| making of a market for new securities designed to be floated. It is also true, however, that operations of this class almost invariably serve to introduce speculative .movement of large scope | persistent abstention of this class of operators from activity has, in fact, in- | timidated the ller class of ope-| | rators. The development of these large | | operations have been effective in driv- | ing to cover a large bear party in the market who had been obstinate in| maintaining the short side because the large operators had not made their appearance on the long side. The rush | to cover of the long standing and un- | wieldy short interest was a material | factor in the buoyancy late in the | | week. The movement was a cr: | tallization of a number of influences | which have been under discussion for | some time past, rather than any sud- | den change in conditions. The fear ot‘ | war between Russia and Japan was | rather definitely eliminated from the | situation and even more so the appre- | henston of its unfavorable effect here | should it threaten again. The grow- | Ing conviction of the abundant re- | sources of the money market to meet all demands upon it has also been of | growing ferce upon ‘sentiment. MONEY OUTLOOK FIRM. | The entire tranquillity with yhich the money market has met the flotation of a number of railroad bond issues has | served to prove its adequacy to provide for this class of requirements, which has been a source of anxiety for many | | months past. The rapid expansion of . the loan item of the clearing-house | banks in the last month has kept alive | this apprehension, but with a loan ex- | pansion in a month of $35,000,000 the re- | serve item increased over $32,000,000, and | the surplus above the legal requirement w to the extent of $9, on call has fallen.to 2 per cent or under | .and the rates for time loans have de-| | clined correspondingly, while the banks have been eager buyers of commercial ifpe.
