P e ¢ A2AIRZL 7 LAZ/CO?Z” new commissioners | P b £t e WINE OF STATE IS VINDICATED. s The subject of wine adulteration was the main topic at the meeting of the { Public Health Commission, held in the | rooms of the Board of Health. Andrea Sbarboro, the wine merchant, who 1s a member of the commission, strongly disapproved of the publicity given to the adulteration stories, contending that they were grossly exaggerated. Sbharboro introduced a resolution con- demning the circulation of such r ports as tending to injure one of the most promising industries. After long | discussion the resolution was with- | drawn and a committee was appointed | to draft a substitute. The following was finally adopted: It would appear that the policy of | Commission in the analysis of | foods and beverages has been misunderstood and that the erroneous impression has gone forth that all California wines are adulterated; therefore be it , That this commission Intends to steps 'to assure. through our analysis and | tnspecticn, wine purchasers at home and abroad | that Califerniu wines purchased in San Fran- clsco will be free from adulterants or injurious matter, and thus establish the claim of the wine growers of the State that California wines are the purest sold in any market. In vindication of the purity of Cali- | fornia wines Dr. Gibbs, head of the Pure Food Department, said in his re- | port to the Board of Health: “Adul-| terations in California wines are far from general. The sophistication is mostly of local origin. In California | wines sold in the East no trace of arsenic is found. Dr. W. B.' Bige- low, Federal Chemist at Washington, says that California wines are the finest in the world.” The Board of Health held an execu. tive session at Dr. Ward's office yes- terday evening. It was decided to push the work of food inspection. Samples of beer are now being analyzed by the department and some | startling revelations will be made | when the analyses are complete. The ! | subject of food inspection was taken | up at length. The board will publish | the result of every analysis made in its monthly bulletin, without fear or ! favor, declares Dr. Ward. An additional chemist may be taken i into the Pure Food Department, as the work now demands more help. — s ARMY OFFICER O THE TICKET Epectal atch to The Call.

SACRAMENTO, April 8.—In a statement tqgday with reference to the dismissal Secretary J. H. Strine from the Text Book Committee of the State Board of Education State Super- | Intendent of Public Lnstruction T. J. Kirk sald if any blame is to be at- itached to the incident he desires to bear it all, as he took the initiative. The summary discharge of Strine, who was formerly superintendent of schools of Los Angeles County, has caused much comment and it is said the State Board of Education will con- sider the matter at a meeting to be held in San Francisco April 12, Su- perintendent Kirk says the relations between himself and Strine had grown so strained he could no longer work with . him. He declares this feeling was largely brought about by the ac- tion of Secretary Strine and his par- ticular friends in getting the last Legislature to pass a bill, without Kirk’s knowledge or consent, increas- ing Strine’s salary from $1980 to $2500 a year. The money comes out of the school book fund. — L S S EXHIBITS MAKE FINE DISPLAY Bpecial Dispatch to The Call. SANTA CRUZ, April 3.—The exhibits from the various college and city as- soclations provided by the Young Wo- men's Christian Association are in po- sition at the Hotel Capitola. They are | very —attractive and make the foyer| of the hotel during the students’ con- ference a delightful and interesting place. s Among the delegates at the Capitola are several Hoopi Indians who are members of the assoclation at the Sher- man Indian School at Riverside. From this school there is an exhibit of fine needle work, the pillow-covers being particularly pretty. Miss Lucy Wil- son of Chicago, a national secretary, spoke of the students’ work at a large- ly attended meeting to-night. The mu- sical feature this year Is more elab- orate than ever before, special music being rendered at all sessions. The personal workers’ classes inaugurated | by Miss Condeare a great success and | are largely attended. Rev. F. L. Fraser, the retiring mod- erator, preached to-night at the meet- ing of the San Jose Presbytery. 'Dele- gates from the . Presbyterian churches in San Mateo, Santa Clara, | San Benito, Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Luls Obispo counties attended the meeting. DELAY 1N CASE OF THE SMITHS CINCINNATI, April 3.—The con(esté by J. Morgan Smith and wife, relatives | of “Nan” Patterson, against extradi- tion and the fight 4gainst the New York detectives will go hand in hand. This was Indicated by the proceedings in court to-day. Attorney Shay for the defense asked for time to prepare an answer. The court granted till Wednes- | day, when the habeas corpus proceed- ings will be disposed of. Shay was asked what he intended to do about the letters of the Smiths that | were taken by the detectives and sent to New York. He repHed that action would be taken against these officers, ‘When the habeas cogpus case in be- half of Smith was calles ttorney Shay alleged that the information or affidavit upon which the Smths were held in Cincinnati was made out after the writ of habeas corpus had been issued. “If this is true the persons now in custody are held illegally and ought to be set free,” said Judge Spiegel. “I wish to procure witnesses to show that this is true,” said Attorney Shay, k for a continuance.” id Prosecuting At- ‘we have all of the torney Rulison, | papers necessary to hold these people here with the exception of the copy of the indictment. We telegraphed to New York on Saturday afternoon and re- ceived word that the copy was being made with all haste and would be ex- pressed here immediately. This morn- ing by long-distance telephone we as- certained that the papers had been sent and we have been trying all morning to locate the money wagon of the Adams Express, in which the package will be found. The package arrived here this morning, but so far has not been deliv- ered. We are ready to go on with the habeas corpus proceedings, but ask for a continuance in the matter of the ex- tradition.” The court then continued the case, remanding the prisoners to the County Jail in the charge of the Sheriff. The nucleus of the defense’s conten- tion is that the requisition papers were not issued by Governor Herrick, but by a clerk, and that the issue of papers of extradition is an executive prerogative, which cannot be delegated. ‘When the papers were issued Gov- ernor Herrick and his party were in Texas. He had left with his executive clerk a number of forms of extradition papers signed in blank. It was one of these blanks that was duly filled out for the return of the Smiths to New York.

Clark, late rector of St. John's Church, Stockton, died last night at St. Luke’s Hospital in this city. Mr. Clark had been in the hospital for the last two months and had been suffering for some while be- fore coming to San Francisco for treatment. The news of the esteemed clergy- man’s death will * cause the deepest sorrow, not alone amqng his former parishioners, but umon% the numerous friends he counted in all denomina- tions. As a sterling man he was known to all who were honored with his friend- ship. His ideals were the highest, and a kindly spirit and uniform courtesy were characteristic of the gentleman. The Rev. Mr. Clark was chaplain of the Seventh California Regiment dur- ing the Spanish-American war. He was also the Pacific Coast Chaplain of the Military Order of Foreign Wars. Mr. Clark was rector of Christ Church, Los Angeles, for seven years.

RS. MINNIE E. McALLISTER. wife of Judge McAllister, writes from 1217 West 33rd sgreet, Min- neapolis, Minn., as follows: “I suffered for years with a pain in the small of my back and right side. It in- terfered often with my domestic and so- cial duties and | never suppesed that | would be cured, as the doctor's medicine did not seem to help me any “Fortunately a member of our Order advised me to try Peruna and gave it such high praise that I decided to try it. Although I started in with little faith, I felt so much better in a week that I felt encouraged. “I took it faithfully for seven weeks and am happy indeed to be able to say that I am entirely cured. “ Words fail to exoress my gratitude. Perfect health once more is the best thing I could wish for, and. thanks to Peruna, | enjoy that now."" Pain in the back, on or the right side. How often a physician hears this com~ plaint! Over and over we hear women say: have a pain in the small of my back. havé a pain in my right side, just belo: the ribs.” These symptoms indicate pelvic or ab- dominal catarrh. They indicate that the bowels are not acting properly—that the liver is out of order—that the pelvic organs are con- gested. Pelvic catarrh—that is the name for it. Peruna cures pelvic catarrh, when ail of these symptoms disarpear. The catarrh may be all nal organs, when it woul called abdominal eatarrh At any rate, it is one of those cases of internal catarrh which can be reached only by a course of treatment with Pe- runa. We have on file thousands of testimo- nials similar to the above. It is impos- sible here to give our readers more than one or two specimens of the number of grateful and commendatory letters Dr. Hartman is constantly receiving in be- half of his famous catarrh remedy, Pe- runa. “r ¥ n the abdomi- be properly HEART DISEASE CLAIMS A GIRL OF FIFTEEN Attack of Pneumonia Leaves Organ Weak and She Suddenly Passes Away.

BOSTON, April 3.—Experiments have been made recently at the Alls- ton shops of the New York Central Railroad with an electrical horseshoe magnet attached to a set of locomo- tive driving wheels to determine the degree of magnetic resistance possible to exert.

PIANO SELLING Since occupying our present premises } we have recelved 24 carloads of pianos, and there are more coming. Our con- tracts with Eastern manufacturers run from year to vear. They take no account of the fact that the demolishing of our old quarters compelled us to accept tem- porary ones in the wholesale distriect. Our planos, therefore, continue to come in as before. At first we thought we 1 1- | would use our temporary quarters al | most entirely as a wholesale distributing | establishment and devote our energies to the interior trade. A few months' trial has convinced us that this is not alto- gether feasible. Our branch stores have absorbed large numbers of planes, but not so many more as we used to sell to city buyers at our old _establishment. | Moreover, we have recently run onto | some good things—some chances to close with manufacturers at terms which wili be of great advantage to us in the fu- ture—and in order to take advantage ot these we have been obliged to act at once. This adds still more to the steady : stream of planos flowing Into our store. It is now our business -to keep this stream from overflowing by turning the | pianos into cash or Interest-bearing pa- | per.” Our other stores are working to their utmost and can take no more. It is the main_store that must assume the burden. We realize that at regular re- tail prices it would be impossible to sell the planos quickly here. but with the ex- | traordinary price concessions we are pre- | pared to make. there will be thousands of Pavers willing to spend the extra nickel 1o get to our store. What We Have to Sell We have four fidbrs crammed full of the nicest. cleanest, newest. handsomest ! and hest planos we have ever carried. We | have the newest things in Colonial and Mission styles in the Decker, Hallet & Davis. Schumann, Crown and Kimball makes.

We have the Auto-plano, the newest thing in musical instruments—the piano which everybody can play, and play well. It is either a self-playing plano or a pi- ano of the regular sort, as you like. As a self-playing plano, using the regular Pianola music, an inexperienced person lay the masterpieces of the world xactil } :nenl of the highest class. We have never | heretofore advertised the Auto-plano, | ana yet we are selling them at the rate {of more than a carload a month. One | invariably sells another.
