The doctor closed with the senti- ment that this noble vale should be the care of the national Government. Like the Yellowstone and other reser- vations, he said, United States officers should be its guardians. The State Commission with little funds at its dis- | posal doubtless does the best, said the speaker, that it can, but that is insufficient. He spoke of the con- cessions that are given certain people in the valley for a money considera- tion, and though he did not say so, he | left the impression on the minds of his irtelligent hearers that he noted the “side show” characters that mar the | matchless grandeur of the noble place. | The national Government in its care | of its wonderful reservations does not eke out its expense account by selling money-making privileges. | ————— | DESPONDENT ELEVATOR BOY ] ATTEMPTS TO END LIFE | John Mack Swallows Carbolic Acid, but Is Revived at Central Emergency Hospital. | In a fit of despondency John Mack, | an elevator boy, swallowed carbolic | acld in his lodgings at 303 Jessie street | 1ast night.

Mrs. Mack, the mother of the unfortunate girl, is broken-hearted ; over the tragedy. For thirty years, Mrs. Mack and her family have lived | in the neighborhood where they now | reside. Mrs. Mack has the highest re- | spect and esteem of every one in that vicinity. In speaking of the affair last night the broken-hearted mother said: | Lillle has always been a good girl, but she was fond of going out.- Her two brothers, | John and Willle, would cccasionally remon- strate with her, and wanted her to stay more at home. She used to work in the canning factory with me, and besides this she used to do the housework for the family. I have Worked hard all my life and saved every nickel T possibly could to help dress her nicely, and I also saved up a little money to put aside to help her in case I should die. For three months she has been away. Her brother has searched everywhere over the city at night to try and find her. Her father took his life in February, 1901, while laboring under, the effects of temporary insanity caused by epllep- tic fits. Poor Lillle was subject to slight at- tacks of the same affliction. She was always worrled about herself and was afraid that some day she would go insane. I am of the opinfon she was insane when she killed herself. 1 do not know anything about the trip to Sea tle. She had never gone there previous to the time when she left me. I am not acquainted with any young man who had ever kept com- pany with her. Her friend and companion, Miss Ella | Lefevre, was greatly upset over the| death of Miss Mack and was amazed ! when she learned of her antecedents. | She said she always supposed that Lillie came from Seattle and that she was| entirely friendless. Miss Lefevre said | that while the girl was in the employ of C. C. Lord at 320 Kearny street she | was very quiet and modest. Periodi-| cally she was very melancholy, and ! once she told Miss Lefevre that she was subject to epilepsy and was afraid at that moment that she was going to| have an attack. Miss Lefevre says she never heard her speak of any love af- fair and that in the short time she knew her she never saw her with any man. She added, however, that there was some mystery, she thought, behind the girl’'s suicide, but what it was she had no idea. She said she had in- vention would not act on the question, but would, like its predecessor, refer the problem to the next triennial confer- ence. Leaders of the high church party spoke strongly in favor of the pro- posad legislation. Dr. F. W. Clampett |of San Francisco and several other deputies opposed a change in the canon. The House of Deputies to-day pre- sented to the Archbishop of Canter- bury a silver loving cup. The English primate will leave Boston for New York to-morrow, and will sail for Eng- land on Friday. The resignation of Bishop Thomas A. Jaeger of Southern Ohio was received and accepted by the House of Bishops, and his coadjutor, Right Rev. Boyd Vincent, becomes Bishop of the dio- cese. At the afternoon session of the House of Deputies, sitting as a committee of the whole, Rev. Robert Ritchie of Philadelphia discussed the ninth verse of the nineteenth chapter of St. Mat- thew, which the opponents of the pro- posed canon assert authorizes the re- marriage of the innocent person who has been divorced, and quoted further from the New Testament to show that marriage was indissoluble, except by death. Rev. Dr. F. W. Clampett of San Francisco, speaking against the pro- posed change, expressed the opinion that an agreement of all Protestant communions on the matter of mar- riage and divorce would be a grand achievement. James McConnell of New Orleans op- posed the adoption of the new canon in a dramatic speech. Rev. E. A. Larrabee of Chicago, in support of the new canon, quoted from the New Testament to show that those who put away a wife or husband and marry another commit adultery. Judge Prince of New Mexico made an address in opposition to the mew canon. The debate was then put over until to- MOrrow. L e v e R s S VALUES SPOUSE formed Miss Adams at 1005 Powell street, where the girl died, to take care of all her effects and to surrender them only to the girl’'s mother. Regarding the rumors of a certain Archie, whose name was connected with the affair, neither Miss Lefevre nor Mrs. Mack could throw any light. The funeral of the unfortunate girl will take place from her mother’s home to-morrow morning at 10 o’clock.

SAN JOSE, Oct. 12.—Because she was deprived of a husband and received permanent injuries Mrs. Sarah E. Johnson demands $60,350 damages from the Southern Pacific 'Railroad Com- pany. While on a trip from New York to this city to marry Dr. James W. Hitchcock she was injured in a train collision in the depot yards here. She attributes the accident to the careless- ness, negligence and want of skill of the employes of the railroad company. Mrs. Johnson in her complaint alleges that she received permanent injuries to her spine and was severely bruised | about the body, causing great physical suffering. She was in a hospital from June 20, 1904, to October 5, 1904, and is now confined to her house and ean only walk with the greatest difficulty. She was on her way here to marry Dr. James W. Hitchcock. The wed- ding was to occur June 21, 1904, the day following the accident. Because of the injuries received, she claims, she had been prevented from marrying Hitch- cock and has been rendered forever in- capable of marrying. The $60,350 damages asked are divided as follows: For injuries received in the wreck, $50,000; physician bills, $350; loss of husband, $10,000. —_———— TWELVE-YEAR-OLD RENO BOY KILLS BIG MOUNTAIN LION Sends Small Bullet Into Beast's Heart and Then Takes to His Heels. RENO, Nev., Oct. 12—While hunting with a small caliber rifle John Herd, a 12-year-old boy, " yesterday killed a mountain lion measuring 10 feet from tip to tip, near Lamoille, in the Ruby Mountains, Elko County. The boy had tracked a deer in the snow for some distance, when he came in sight of the lion eating the carcass of a deer. Trem- bling with fear the little Nimrod took aim over a bowlder and fired. Leaping and roaring the lion started in the direction of the young hunter, who took to his heels.- He had gone some distance when he met several men who went back with him. On reaching the place they found the lion dead, having been shot through the heart. A dresser of unquestion- Oak, shelf on either side of mir- —_————————— _ “Flectrician Gets Fatal Shock.

Miss Katherine Dover. When you are sick in some part of your body it is because some organ is not doing its work proper?’. Every organ o%athc body is absolutely controlled by, the nerves. S avy Weak, “run down” nerves tell of their ¢ondition by stopping the proper action of some one organ, or of several organs, of the body. 1 Medical science has for the Iipalst seventéen years ag‘eed‘ with the teachings of Prof. Edward E. Phelps of Dart- mouth University . S Prof. Phelps was the first ghysician to opénly declare twenty years ago that the health of the human body depends entirely upon the health of the nerves.” ¢ Prof. Phelps formulated the prescription of Paine’s Celery Compound. The first druggist that this pre~ scription was taken to was a man by the name of Paine. One of the principal ingredients of the pre- scription is the seed of the celery plant. é After two years' trial of the prescription by Prof Phelps and a number of the leading Massachusetts physicians it was decided to place this prescription be- fore the public. ;% The formula was sent to every registered physician in the United States. The prescription was named Paine’s Celery Compound, and one of the largest and oldest manufacturing chemists in the country, Wells, Richardson & Co., of Burlington, Vt., undertook its pro- duction. : Paine’s Celery Compound has stood the test of seven~ teen years’ constant use. It has been for the past seven- teen years, and is to-day, the most universally used tonic prescription in the world. A photograph of Miss Katherine Doyer, of Brooklyn, appears at the head of this arti- cle. Mi Doyer’'s exberlsnce is given in her own words to illustrate the effective work that Paine’s Celery Compound is con- stantly doing as the curative agent In the nourishing and rebuilding of _“rundown” nerves. “Some time ago | gradually began to grow weak and emaciated; my eyes became dull, my sight poor and my head dizzy. | was restless and nervous and troubled with bad dreams; |_had shooting pains in my stomach and suffered nausea after eating. | consulted a physician, who said | had ca- tarrh of the stomach. | took his prescrip- tion for nearly six months, but got no better, Hearing so much of Paine’s Celery Com. pound, | decided to try it. It was a fortu- nate thing for me that | did, for inside of two months | was entirely cured and have never hag a return of any nervous troubles since."—Miss Katherine Doyer, 422 Gold St., Brooklyn, N. Y., August 15, 1904. _ Paine’s Celery Compound is a nerve invigorator, & regulator and an idcal blood cleanser. It takes away the “wear” on the nerves and enables them to work without tearing. themselves to pieces, and it prevents the unhealthy reaction of tired nerves on the entire system It solves the problem of how to build up the nervous' system, as no other remedy has ever done It cures the causes of constipation, biliousness, dys- pepsia, headaches, sleeplessness and every sign of im- pure blood. Nervousness—whether in the form of headaches, sleeplessness, indigestion, melancholia, irri- tability or any one of a host of other troubles—is a disease,' and as such can be driven from the system by the use of Paine’s Celery Compound. Remember this,—Paine’s Celery Compound is the pre= scription of one of the most famous physicians this coun- try has ever known, and all reputable druggists sell and recommend it.
