THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, FRIDAY, APRIL 8, 1904 11 4 “.-.;r R oo . ik Y )& A Cordial Invitation to Every Sick and Ailing Working Girl. It is to these girls that Mrs. Pinkham holds out a helping hand, and extends a cordial invitation to correspond with her. Her long record of success in treating woman’s ills makes her letters of ice ofuntold value to everyailing working girl, and from her wide experience and skill she quickly fii‘;::: :)h: \nvay u; :ea(lth. Hre’r advi%e is free,gaiid all letters are held by her in the strictest confidence. Address, Mrs, Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, Don’t put off writing her until your health is wrecked. Girls who work are particularly susceptible to female ills, especially when obliged to stand on their feet from morning until night. Day in and day out, month in and month out, the year through, the working girl toils ; she is often the bread winnerof the family, and must work that others may live; whether she.is sick or well, whether it rains or shines, whether it is warm or cold she must get to her place of employment and perform the duties exacted from her. Among this class the symptoms of female diseasesare early manifest by weak and aching backs, pain inthe Jower limbs and lower vart of the stomach; in consequence of frequent wetting of the feet monthly periods become painful and inegul:u;iand frequently there are faint and dizzy spells, with loss of appetite, until life is a burden and it is ha: work to drag about. All these symptoms point to female organism, and if taken in time can be easily and permanently cured. a derangement of the Grateful Words from Working Girls Who Have Been Helped. *T wich to thank you for the wonderful cure you have discovered for suffering girls. Iama working girl and do not_believe there is a girl of my age in the country who has suffered more than I have with female disorders. ‘ Although ever so many were tried, nothing seemed physicians with their various remedies to relieve me of the terrible pains, and it seemed as though there was no help for me, until I was finally persuaded to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. “It worked like magic, for I had scarcely finished the second bottle when a great change was noticed in my whole general health ,and in the three months time I felt like a new person.”— Miss M.

A transcript of the testimony which secured his conviction before Judge Mogan is now being made, and it will be sent to the District Attorney | of Alameda County with certain state- ments marked for the guidance of that official. Among other things of which he will be asked to take cognizance is the wife's assertion that Johnson placed her in an immoral house in Oakland and was supported by her earnings therein. The man dwelt on this side of the bay, but as that particular act of his generally infamous treatment of his wife was committed in Oakland he cannot be tried for it here. Johnson is now under a six months’ sentence for carrying concealed weap- ons, and Judge Mogan will probably place him under a $5000 bond to keep the peace. If he fails to find good and sufficient sureties for that amount he must spend an additional half year in jail. Patrick Carbine says he is a tailor, but the police have him registered as a chronic vagrant. He resides at Third and Howard streets when he is sober, and when he imbibes strong waters he wandeps northward until he arrives at Kearny and Sacramento streets, where he indulges in a copious outpouring of unsolicited rhetoric. His strident tones were frightening horses last Wednes- day evening when a policeman quenched them by grasping his throat and thus escorting him to the Hall of Justice, where he spent the night in a i the Girls’ High School due to the an- | N0 SELECTION OF PRINIPAL Another Candidate Appears for Prospective Vacancy in the Girls’ High School! e The various applications for the pros pective vacancy in the principalship of nounced intenticn of Eli Brooks to | resign were taken under advisement by the Board of Education yesterday.

A. W. Scott, principal of the Alameda High School, also submitted their credentials. R. D. Faulkner, J.

The resignation of Mary Van Am- ringe as stenographer was accepted and resolutions commending her faithful service were adopted. The board took under advisement the city architect’s recommendation that the roof of the Mission High School be strengthened. Superintendent Langdon filed a report that the exhibit of the work of the School Department, consisting of 400 bound velumes, had been shipped to the St. Exposition. The Superintendent has sent out ex- aminations as tests of efficiency and not for promotion in arithmetic, geog- raphy and spelling to all schools, and the returns show a very high standard of excellence in the studies.

Burnett and Lee Lim was| called for trial yesterday in the United | Shates District Court Dasha and Dempsey entered pleas of guilty and| were ordered to appear for sentence on | Saturday morning. | The indictment charges the defend- | ants with having entered into a com- | spiracy to land Chinese illegally into | the United States. The trial of Lee| Lim was postponed umtil April 15 on account of the absence of Samuel M.{ Shortridge, counsel for the defendant. | This is the last of the celebrated | substitution cases, in which _four white men have been disgraced and which! caused Deputy United States Marshal | William P. Gamble to commit suicide. | Dasha, Dempsey and Hom Toon were convicted of conspiracy on the first in- | dictment; Dasha and Dempsey pleaded guilty to the second and third indict-| ments and Wong Din was cenvicted on the second indictment. The prosecution granted a separate trial to Burnett on each of the three indictments, but a | nolle prosequi will be entered as to| him, for it is conceded that without his | testimony convictions might not have| been obtained. | The maximum penalty on each charge of conspiracy is two vears imprison- | ment in the State penitentiary and a| fine of $10,000. As there is some doubt | whether the indictments do not refer | tos one and the same conspiracy, it is| unlikely that the full penalty will ha exacted. A sentence of six months im- | prisonment in the County Jail was all that was imposed by Judge de Haven upon Wong Din for substituting Ma! Foo, a Chinese, with Expressman Duf- fy in Bi s photograph gallery about a year ago. It is believed that Dasha and Dempsey bpleaded guilty and thereby saved considerable time 1Q the Government because they hoped by 80 doing to mitigate the penalty. ————— TURLOCK IRRIGATION BOARD NAMES COMMITTEE Wants Additional Facts Before Con- senting to Surrender Reservoir Sites on Tuolumne River.
