All previous reg- istrations have been canceled. The gistrar is anxious to impress upon the minds of the voting public that all registrations prior to January | 1, 1904, have been canceled. The first primary election of the year will take place Tuesday, May 3. and If an early awakening to the importance of this event does not occur the vote will be very light. When the time comes for holding an election to choose delegates to the State convention many Repub- | licans as well as Democrats will be ! denied the privilege of voting, simply because of their neglect to register. { It is the talk in political camps that the primary election in May will re- {dound to the advantage of a small i clique of organized workers if the great body of voters neglects to register. ———— Will Resentence Chinaman. l Judge Cook, having received a re- mittitur from the Supreme Court in the case of Chew Lan Ong, sentenced to be hanged for murder, has put the on the calendar for Saturday, the defendant will be resen- tenced.

Mr. Briggs says that the Rev. Car Swensson was in perfect health seem- ingly last Friday when he started on se an his homeward journey by way of Los Angeles. He was 48 years old, weighed | 240 pounds, was ov six feet tall and looked to be in the very flower of health and strength. Bethany College, of which the Rev.

With these attacks I had sick headache, nausea and vomit- ing. Finally my stomach was in such a condition I could scarcely retain any food. “I consulted a physician; He as Loaded.” was told all | my troubles came from indigestion, but was not informed what caused the in- digestion, so I kept on with the coffee with the troubles, too, and my case continued to grow worse from year to year, until it developed into chronic diarrhea, nausea and se- vere attacks of vomiting, so I could keep nothing on my stomach and be- came a mere shadow, reduced from 159 to 128 pounds. “A specialist informed me I had a very severe case of catarrh of the stom- ach, which had got so bad he could do nothing for me, and I, became convinced my days were numbered. “Then I chanced to see an article set- ting forth the good qualities of Pos- tum, and explaining how coffee injures people, so I concluded to give Postum a trial. I soon saw the good effects; my headaches were less frequent, nau- sea and vomiting only came on at long intervals and I was soon a changed man, feeling much better. “Then I thought I could stand coffee again, but as soon as I tried it my old troubles returned and I again returned to Postum. Would you believe it, I did this three times before I had sense enough to quit coffee for good and keep on with the .Postum. The result is I am now a well man, with noc more headaches, sick stomach or vomiting and )mve already gained back to 147 pounds.” Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek. Mich.

COLON LIFE OF EL SWEET Career of Gallant Officer Covers a Pe- riod of Nearly Forty-Three Years. A pamphlet, entitled “The Life of Colonel Owen J. Sweet, the Commanding Officer of the Twenty- eighth Infantry,” has recently been published and made its appearance at the post vesterday. It gives a careful and serious review of the gallant of- ficer's services in his country’s behalf during the last forty-three years. While in a measure complimentary, still, in the words of Othello, it is a “round, unvarnished tale” of his expe- riences since he entered the army in 1861. It was read with much inter- est by his brother officers at the Pre- sidio. General MacArthur, accompanied by his aid, Major Parker W. West, made official calls yesterday afternoon on Brigadier General T. J. Wint at the Palace Hotel and General Jesse M, Lee at the Occidental. Both these of- ficers leave in a few days for their respective posts in the East. Regular monthly fleld day will take place next Monday, February 22, ‘Washington’s birthday, for which an elaborate programme of sports has been arranged by Lieutenant Beauford Camp. The cavalry drills in the lower par- ade ground have been done away with temporarily, as the recent rains have made the grounds like a swamp. ——————————— The number of murders a million in- habitants is, in England 5.13, in Ger- many 545, in France 1155, i2 Austria 15.42, in Italy 76.11 and in Spain 44,70, Military Conger, a prominent real | ambulance from his | THE | APPEARS IN PAMPHLET FORM | AGE Smla!
