Neuralgia And Other Pain. All pain in any disease is nerve pain, the result of a tur- bulent conditipn of the nerves. The stabbing, lacerating, darting, burning, agonizing pain that comes from the prom- inent nerve branches, or sen- sory nerves, is neuralgia, and is the “big brother” of all the other pains. Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills rarely ever fail to relieve these pains by soothing these larger nerves, and restoring _their tranquility. Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills leave no bad after-effects, and are a reliable remedy for every kind of pain, such as headache, backache, stomachache, sciat- ica, rheumatism and neuralgia.

On some| streets the pavements were covered. | The storm was much more severe in | and about San Bernardino, where snow | fell for nearly two hours, covering the | streets in the city and giving to the extensive orange groves an icy coating, | which it is feared has caused consider- able damage. At Pomona this evening snow fell and drifted in such a quantity that it was possi to make a snow man, the first| ever seen in that city, which is in the | very heart of the orange belt. Children, hundreds of whom had never seen snow except on the tops of the distant moun- | tains, reveled in it, and no pedestrian w immune from bombardment with snowballs while the snow lasted. ! The storm was accompanied by a| high wind, and this, with the hail, se- | riously damaged many orchards in the | of 8an Dimas and Lordsburg, | knocking off the blossoms from | the trees | the mountains the fall of snow was heavy. In Bear Valley eighteen wches fell during last night and this morning. The snow line extended far down the mountainside. To-night the weather throughout the orange region | is unusually cold, the wind being di-| rectly off the snow-covered mountains. | If the wind continues the danger of | damage from frost will not be great, | but if it is followed by a calm there | may be a killing frost in that section. The temperature at midnight in Los Angeles was 47 degrees. BAKERSFIELD, March 30.—A heavy | hailstorm occurred in this city at noon to-dayw The storm lasted for five min- | utes and was accompanied by a high wind. Many of the hallstones were larger than peas. A cdld wind has been blowing from the northwest -all day. Halilstorms are reported from several outlying districts. Snow has been fall- | ing in the mountains. ACRAMENTO, March 30.—There wi a heavy frost in the upper part of the Sacramento Valley last night, but it is believed that it was not of a kill- | ing character. A heavy snowstorm pre- | valled at Truckee and other points in | the mountains. There was no frost in this vicinity. s 2 FLINT TALKS ON NEW LAWS LOS ANGELES, March 30.—United States Senator Frank P. Flint, in an interview to-day on current public questions, said regarding the question of railroad rate regulation, that not a single. member of the United States Senate, Republican or Democrat, is opposed to the policy of President Roosevelt to give the Interstate Com- merce Commission increased power, On the contrary, he believed that when | the House met in extraordinary ses- sion in October the subject will be dis- posed of in short order, and a law | enacted that will be satisfactory to the public, as well as to the vested inter- ests involved. Senator Flint said the regular ses- | sion of the Senate will undoubtedly ratify some sort of treaty with Santo Domingo, although he admits the sub- ject is fraught with considerable dan- | ger to the republic, because of the principles of international law dnd phases of the Monroe doctrine that are involved. The new treaty to be submitted will not carry certain of the provisions embodied in the agreement that failed a few weeks ago, and to which serious exception was taken by a majority of the members of the Sen- ate. As far as Arizona statehood is con- i cerned, the Senator said he is certain | the Beveridge bill, linking Arizona | and New Mexico and Oklahoma and | Indian Territory into two States, will | be enacted into law by the next Con- | gress, although he will cast his vote for single statehood, as he is pledged. He is of the opinion that double state- | hood, as advocated by Senator Bev- eridge, will become a part of the Re- publican ecaucus policy in the two! houses, and the contest to bring it/ about will not be prolonged. ———— i PREPARING TO RESUME | WORK ON BIG DRYDOCK Inventory Being Taken of Material Left by the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific Company. VALLEJO, March 30.—Prepara- tions are going rapidly ahead for the inauguration of the work of building the big dryvdock by the American Government at Mare Island navy | yard. N. M.

GROGKER THKES HIS SEAT ON HARBOR COMMMISSION HARBOR COMMISSION STERDAY TOOK SEAT IN THE BOARD. ER, | HIS —p The new Harbor Commissioner, Hen- ry J. Crocker, was welcomed to his * place on the board yesterday afternoon. ' For the outgoing Commissioner, Colonel C. Kirkpatrick, there were many tributes of commendation from his as- soclates. An incident of the occasion was the presentation of a gold wateh to Mr. Kirkpatrick, and this was sup- plemented by the gift of an ivory- handled, gold-mountéd driving whip. Later on a few bottles of champagne were opened, to the delight and surprise of water front attaches. When the board was called to order j.(he outgoing Commissioner introduced his successor in a few appropriate re- marks. In acknowledgment of the in- troduction Mr. Crocker said: 1f 1 am expected to make a speech to you it | i indeed a surprise to me. 1 certainly by the Governer to be agsoclated with you in conducting harbor Interests at this time when the State has taken such steps for the adop- tion of better facilities for the commerce of this port and to improve the waterways and also the harbor, which is hardly equaled. No doubt Yhe conduct of this board in spend- ing those funds for the benefit of the harbor and the benefit of the State is something that will require our united judgment, and knowing you as I do, old acquaintances, 1 can do what little my knowledge of the State allows to assist you. This board is enabled in a small way to advance the pres- ent conditions of this barbor so that the State may make this water front. one of the best of its kind money spent in the old world, in such places as Liverpool, for seawall purposes, but we | never can expect to have the money to make yet we will this harbor what it should be, ave in hend, do what we can, with what we for the’ future. COURTESIES EXCHANGED. Charles H. Spear, president of the board, spoke in high terms of the ef- ficiency and husiness capacity of | Colonel Kirkpatrick. Addressing the re- tiring Commissioner, Mr. Spear said: You have to this day your best efforts for the weifare of the water front and 1 can simply add that as one of your col- leagues for the past two vears I have no com- plaint, only thoughts of kindness. The office is indéed one of evolution, always changing. It giver me great pleasure to give testimony of the harmony which has existed in the board, and as far as the conditions of the water front are concerned you have always grasped the situations and aided in the handling of them to_the State's best interest. rendered My, Crocker will, I have no doubt, fill the placé consclentiousiy and to the State's ad- vantage. Responding to the sentiments of good will, Colonel Kirkpatrick remarked: is one of the unfortunate things that after we have become associated with men on a board of this kind that we must part, but I can assure vou that it is not without deep regret on my part, yet we will continue to meet in a -business way, having the welfare and interest of the State at heart, and 1 wel- come Mr. Crocker to the seat which I have ocoupled, I will not make much of a statement, but will simply say that it s exceedingly kind of the president to exprees so much regret, and while it is a regretful occurrence in all statutory boards, there seems to a war- rant for that; Tennyson quotes from King Arthur’s time “‘the old must give place to the pew.”’ 1 hope that our friendship of the past four years will last many times four vears. 1 thank you very much, gentlemen, and leave with @ great deal of regret. The board, after transacting some business, in which the rent of the new !quarters for the Key Route was fixed at $700 a month, adjourned until next Monday at 2 p. m. ‘WATCH PRESENTED. Immediately after the adjournment a beautiful open face gold watch with split second register was presented to Colonel Kirkpatrick. The speech ten- dering the gift on behalf of the Com- mission and office force was made by Mr. Spear. In accepting the time- piece the retiring Commissioner gave his approval of this system of watch- ing public servants. John M. Foy, secretary of the Com- mission, performed the pleasant duty of presenting the colonel with a riding whip. On behalf of Mrs. Kirkpatrick the retiring Commissioner accepted a beautiful bouquet of flowers from his former assoclates on the board. Later on in another room Commis- gioners Mackenzie, Spear and Crocker exchanged greetings over the wine with former Commissioners Rudolph Herold and J. C. Kirkpatrick. The remarks were listened to by the officers and at- taches of the Commission. Special ref- erence was made to the vast expendi- ture of public money te improve the commercial facilities of foreign ports. | It was said that $100,000,000 of public money had been expended on the water front of Liverpool. Francisco approximated 3 Reference was made to the two new piers for the Pacific Mail, which would cost $400,000, the money for the con- struction has already been paid in by the Mail Company. Thetolls and dock- ' age for fifteen years would amount to $1,250,000. The speakers, Colonel Kirk- patrick, Rudolph Herold and President Spear mentioned that no tax was lev- jed on real estate for these vast im- It was asserted in em- phatic terms that the port charges of San Francisco were not high in com- parison with charges levied by other leading cities. - A toast in honor of Governor Pardee was proposed by Henry Crocker, and all applauded.

Dunn arrived in Delano Monday and ' spent the night at Zimmerman's rancl { He was in Delano all day Tuesday. 3 Yesterday morning he was found dead |in Jean Eustache's barn. An inguest . was held and the jury rendered a ver- ! dict that the deceased came to his ! death by a gunshot wound, but did not | | indicate whether it was a case of mur- | , der or otherwise, . Examination of‘ Dunn's body disclosed the fact that he ! met death from a bullet in the back of the neck at the base of the skuil. | Another bullet entered the head. I The case is surrounded with much | mystery. ¥ 1.OS ANGELES, March 30.—Harry | Dunn, son of J. Dunn, went to | Bakersfield jast evening and to-@ay telephoned the family that officers had secured evidence which might lead to | the arrest of one or more persons, He | scouted the theory of suicide. Tt de- velops that the dead man's revolver held one empty shell, and it is believed he fired the shot in self-defense.
