A pro- | cess of digestion was very perceptible, | especially in the high priced standard railroad shares and St. Paul broke 1% below yesterday, giving the mar- ket a ragged appearance toward the | close. Ontario and Western also lost a point of yesterday’'s gain. On the other hand very aggressive strength was shown by a number of low-priced railroad stocks with Erie the leader of the group. Amalgamated Copper made & brilllant advance dof over four points to the high level of the year. There was large and determined buying of Rock Islund, the stock rising about a point. United States Steel preferred was unable to hold its own point ad- vance and the same was true of Pennsylvania, which came later into the movement. The.irregular tone of the market Is indicated by the above movement. The bank statement show- ed a larger cash increase than was in- dicated by the currency movement. Phe loan increase of less than $4,000,000 was considered moderate in view of the activity of the speculation during the week. The net result is the first recovery in the declining tendency of the surplus reserve since that decline set in from the high figure of $64,457,800 on August 20. Total sales of bonds, $4,525,000, The volume of dealings in stocks has risen this week.to an average of more than a million and a half shares a day and the question of the active interest in the market in a large following out- side of Wall, Street has become no longer debatable. As a normal re- sponse to this development there has been a free distribution of holdings to the newcomers in the market by the speculators, who saw attractive profits on the previous extensive rise. The market showed the effect of this realiz- ing and by midweek was subjected to a sharp reaction.in consequence of the Increasing burden of the selling and the formation of an influential party reaction for the purpese of shaking out weak holdings of the new long interest and of affording an opportunity to get back stocks at a profitable lower level of prices. The eagerness of waiting de- mand restrained the reaction and the market continued to manifest & strong absorption power. There was nothing John Koening Refuses Police Judge Cabaniss expressed re- gret that the law did not make it com- pulsory on John Koening, ivory turner, to contribute to the maintenance of his 16-year-old daughter, Bertha, until she is able to provide for herself and the babe that is soon to demand her ma- ternal care. The father was seemingly gratified to find that he could not be legally forced to aid the child, and angrily rejected the court’s suggestion that he donate 325 to her. She was a married woman, he said, and it was not his fault that her husband had deserted her. Besides, she had been impudent to him and her stepmother. Not one cent would she ever receive from him. Of course she was his flesh and blood, and it was true that he owned prop- erty and could afford to give away more than $25;: but were those any reasons why he should reward her dis- | obedience with kindness? No, sir. Koening lives at 59 Prospect avenue | with his second wife, and at No. 65 on { the same thoroughfare dwells the wom- { an from whom he was divorced several years ago. When the family was | divided Bertha accompanied her mother, who was left in comparative poverty. Several months ago the at- tention of Mrs. John Pettee, manager of the Universal Service Society, was called to the fact that the girl was not | being properly cared for and investiga- tion disclosed the fact that the sooner | she became the wife of one William | Hansen, an amateur lightweight pugi- ‘llst‘ the better chance would she have | of saving her honor. So the wedding [“-as effected by having Hansen arrest- ed for vagrancy and arraigned before | Judge Mogan, who gave him the alter- { native of marrying the girl or spending | six months in the County Jail. A few | days later the bridegroom disappeared, | and since then the young wife has been i‘workxn;; as a domestic. Now her ap- | proaching maternity makes it impos- -‘sible for her to toil. Mrs. Pettee was | again appealed to, and she haled the | father into court to ascertain if the law | could not force him to do what paternal | feeling is naturally supposed to prompt. { The law was powerless in the matter, | because of the young woman's wife- {hood. And the father openly exulted in his iramunity from compulsion to perform a fatherly act. His wife, too, | made no secret of her satisfaction over the Judge's ruling. | Until her trying period | young woman will be cared for by the | Universal Service Society. €26 John Fitzgerald Murphy, playwright, told Judge Mogan that his assault upon Landlord Reavis of the Hotel Meredith | was committed in self-defense, as he delivered the kick when he was pinned to the bed by the assailed one and two other men who had entered his apart- meénts without invitation. Mrs. | Murphy, with whom the defendant was cused. Mr. Reavis said he had retired | for the night when the woman's de- | spairing shriek, ‘Kill me quick and | haye done with it,” impelled him to go to her rescue. He did not invade the room, but was dragged into it, despite | his semi-dressed condition, by Murphy. | The two men who aided the landlord in | holding down the dramatist until the police arrived also adduced some unin- teresting testimony. Murphy then stated that he has left the Hotel Mere- dith and will remove his trunks next in the week's news to discourage the Monday, and the case was continued rise in the market and the good news of the week had little bearing on the specific movements of prices. But speculative enthusiasm ran high and the emotional element was prominent throughout. An excited demand for pig iron, the placing of large orders for railroad equipment and the enormous of the metal industries. News of a less definite kind played a [ part in the violent movements in spec- { ial stocks. Ontario and Western was safd to have passed to the control of the New York and New Haven. The bond market has been active and glven to convertible and bonds. United ‘States 3s have advanced % per cent on call during the week. —_——— Deutscher Club Gives Ball. The ball and banquet of the Deutscher Club, which took place last evening at Golden Gate Hall, 625 Sut- ter street, was thoroughly enjoyed by those who attended. It was the oc- tasion of the fourth anniversary of the society, and about 300 persons took part in the festivities.

Mrs. Murphy displayed ! much indignation while her husband | was testifying. | . | That a coffee pot cannot legally be | designated as a deadly weapon was i opined by Judge Cabaniss, and in ac- | export demand for copper pointed to| cordance with that opinion the charge | the welfare | against John Clifford Jenkin was dis- | missed and the complainant, Harry ‘T. Mollair, advised to file an accusa- tion of battery. The two men were discussing politics in their boarding-house, 860 Howard | street, when Mr, Jenkin abruptly ter- minated the argument by smiting Mr. Mollair's head with the coffee pot, inflicting a severe wound. When the assailed one's face was cleaned of the mingled blood and coffee he had Mr. Jenkin arrested and specifically ac- cused of committing an assault with a deadly weapon. “Perverted use of the coffee pot by the defendant did not necessarily make it a deadly weapon, or even deprive it of its domestic character,” said his Honor. “Othello smothered Desdemona with a pillow, but it would be absurd to classify a pillow as a murderous implement. Again, we have seen cof- fee denounced as a deadly fluid by ad- vertisements of substitutes for that beverage. Even the coffee that mother used to make is thus alleged to have been insidious poison—an allegation that s sufficlently refuted by our sur- vival to boast of the unexcelled qual- ity of the coffee brewed by our mater- nal relatives in the long ago. But in my judicial experience this is the first time I have had the coffee pot accused of being a deadly weapon, and I hope it will be the last.” . “Sam’” McVey, one of the colored heavy-weight pugilists who have had the honor of being whipped by “Jack™ Johnson, aspirant to fight the great Jeftries, was in Judge Mogan’'s court and testified for the defense of George Stewart, champion cake-walker of the Pacific Slope, who fractured the skull of Louis Gomez, a Portuguese trouba- dour, by casting him violently to earth one night on Pacific street after the twain had orally competed for the favor of Miss Anastasia Johnson, premier danseuse of the Afro-Ameri- can contingent of Barbary Coast so- ciety. Mr. McVey had apparently attired himself with a view to making a strik- | ing impression in the tribunal, and in that he’ succeeded. His baby-blue | sweater was artistically relieved by sea-green facings and a burnt yellow neck scarf, and his trousers of vari- colored stripes were so tight fitting as {to make his herculean nether limbs | look like mammoth sausages in gala garb.

What Sulphur Does For the Human Body in Health and Disease. | The mention of sulphur will recall to many of us the early days when our mothers and grandmothers gave us| our daily dose of sulphur and molasses every spring and fall ! It was the universal spring and fall “blood purifier,” toalc and cure-all, and mind you, this old-fashioned rem- edy was not without merit. The idea was good but the remedy was crude and unpalatable, and a large quantity had to be taken to get any effect. Nowadays we get all the beneficial effects of sulphur in a palatable, con- centrated form, so that a single grain is far more effective than a tablespoon- ful of the crude sulphur. In recent years research and experi- ment have proven that the best sulphur | for medicinal use is that obtained from Calclum (Calcium Sulphide) and sold in drug stores under the name of | Stuart’s Calclum Wafers. They are small chocolate coated pellets and con- tain the active medicinal principle of sulphur in a highly concentrated, ef- fective form. Few people are aware of the value of this form of sulphur in restoring and maintaining bodily vigor and health; sulphur acts directly on the liver and | excretory organs, and purifies and en- riches the blood by the prompt elimin- ation of waste material. | Our grandmothers knew this when they dosed us with sulphur and molas- ses every spring and fall, but the cru- dity and impurity of ordinary flowers of sulphur were often worse than the dis- | ease, and cannot compare with the! modern concentrated preparations of | sulphur, of which Stuart’ Calcium ‘Wafers are undoubtedly the best and most widely used. ' They are the natural antidote for | liver and kidney troubles and cure con- stipation and purify the blood in a way that often surprises patient and physi- cian alike, Dr. R. M. Wilkins while experiment- ing with sulphur remedies soom found that the sulphur from Caleium was su- | perior to any other form. He say: “For liver, kidney and blood troubles, especially when resulting from consti- pation or malaria, I have been sur- prised at the results obtained from Stuart’s Caleium ‘Wafers. In patients suffering from bells and pimples and | even deep-seated carbuncles, I have re- peatedly seen them dry up and disap- pear in four or five days, leaving the skin clear and smooth. Although Stuart’s Calclum Waters is a proprie- tary article and sold by druggists, and for that reason tahooed by many nhy- eicians, yet 1 know of uthlnf 80 safe and reliable for constipation, lver anq kidney troubles -and especially in g forms of skin disease as this remedy. At any rate people who are of lers,” wi in Stuart" - ¢lum Wafers a far safer, n..'.z“.. table and effective preparation, AD B.
