In California this fact is so well un derstood that a warranty deed Is look ed upon with suspicion. ' It Is for this reason: j If the title is good It passes with the deed, and that Is all there is to It no needof a warranty. It bad, the ad ding of a warranty does not make it good. A warranty la only a sort of a bet a wager that you will have no trouble; but if you do, and finally lose out, I'll pay you your money back.

It la a great remedy and on of the best patent medicines on the market I handle some others for the same pur poses that pay me a larger profit, but this remedy Is sure to effect a cure, and my customer so certain to ap preciate my recommending It to him, that I give It the preference."

This is in accordance with the sentiment of a number of taxpayers who atended the meeting of the council Borne time ago to urge the arrangement of the sewer system before the paving was done. It is becoming a difficult task for the people of the city to keep track J of the city council, the personnel of of that body is changing so continual ly. Last night S. N. Bolton tendered his resignation, giving as his excuse the rush of business affairs. Mayor Hall expresed regret at losing Mr. Bolton and that the representative men of the city were taking no more Interest in tbe affairs of the city. The council was again flooded .with petitions for more arc lights in var ious places in the city, This seems to be one of the most difficult questions confronting the city at the present time. These petitions were referred to the street committee with instruc tions to the committee to reorganize and get busy. Mayor said there had not been a report from the street com mittee for four months and the inter ests of the city were being neglected. GENERAL SUPERINTENDENT IS ROBBED OF VALUABLES. News Leaked Oat . Yesterday That Gen. Snpt Was Touched. Though It only leaked out in Port land yesterday, General Superintend ent M. J. Buckley who spent two days in La Grande this week, was robbed of a considerable sum and valuables last Sunday, night. The Portland Tel egram relates: M. J. Buckley, general superintend ent of the Harriman lines in the North west, was robbed of between $600 and $700 in cash, a draft for $1,000 and a package of personal passes on' almost every railroad in the country besides a number of other valuable papers while on a dining car of the O. R. & N., passenger train which left Port land Sunday night. ' ' Great efforts have been ' made to keep the "touch" a secret until the railroad, Pullman and other detectives I could get some tangible clew to work j on. Further than that Mr. Buckley had i "lost his pocketbook" no information ! Is to be had at the local Harriman 1 offices. The facts regarding the bold rob- bery, as near as can be learned, are ; ' these: Mr. Buckley was called out on the line last Sunday and he left for ; the enst on No. 6. the Oregon and Washington limited, which leaves at j 6 5 45 p. m. He had his wallet with the ! money and draft on an inside pocket, ! and after eating his dinner in the J diner early In the evening, he paid his check and replaced his wallet In BUCKLEY . mm his pocket Just bow and In what clr curcamstance the robbery occurred is not known, but It 'Is supposed to have happened somewhere near The Dalles. The reports made by Mr. Buckley 10 the secret service men are to the ef fect that when he left tbe train at his destination In Eastern Oregon he felt for the pocket book only to find :t missing. The trainmen on No. 6 as well as the Pullman conductor were notified, Mr. Buckley at first suspect ing that the wallet had dropped out of his pocket It is understood that a thorough search of the diner and the car on which Mr. Buckley rode, was made without finding any trace of the money or valuables. This strengthens the robbery theory, for if some Inno cent person had found the pockctbook the Identity of the owner would have been immediately established by the passes and draft PASTIME THEATRE Thos.
