Prominent Oakland, Cal., Man and Hin "Wife Arrested Red-Handed. SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 22. After hav ing entertained a host of friends and ac quaintances ' at their elegant home at Frultvale for the past two years, Ulysses G. Balr and his handsome young wife spent last night In prison cells, the one in the County Jail of Alameda County, and the other in the matron's room at the city prison. Balr is a confessed counter feiter, while his wife is accused of hav ing uttered the spurious coin turned out by him. This morning both were ar raigned by United States Commissioner Heacock and remanded to jail for exam ination. Balr was arrested at the Oakland race track yesterday while in the act of pass ing spurious coin upon a bookmaker, while his wife was taken into custody as she left a dry goods store on this side of the; hay an hour or so later. Stored away fa their elegant home in the suburbs of Oakland, the secret service agents found a complete counterfeiter's outfit and about $70 worth of spurious coin, which is said to be the most perfect imitation of the Bruce coin that has everbeen handled by the local detectives. Balr was formerly a restaurant-keeper in this city, but sold out about two years ago and engaged In the more lucrative but dangerous calling of a money-maker. Since he began his career as a counterfeiter he and his pretty wife have placed in cir culation thousands of their spurious dol lars, and until recently escaped suspi cion on account of their standing and ap parent air of respectability. Balr admits having won thousands of good dollars at the local tracks through the medium of his bad ones, while his wife has been equally successful in ob talning" change in return for her hus Dand's handiwork while making small purchases. Her sister, Mrs. Nellies Schlcketan, of Council Bluffs, who Is vis iting her, spent the night in jail with her, but the secret service agents do not be lieve" that she was cognizant of the crimi nal acts of her sister and her sister's Tiusband and no charge will be preferred against her. Balr admits his guilt, and says his wife assisted him In passing the coin, getting rid, he said, of about 5600 a month. Both San Francisco and Oakland have been flooded with spurious sliver dollars. Be tween $10 and ?20 was p.ut In circulation every day. President Wheeler Denies It. BERKELEY. Cal., Jan. 22.

The religious ceremonies attending the funeral of the late Mother Joseph, head ot the Sis ters of Charity of the House of Providence, in this city, and founder ot the first convent of that order In the Northwest, who died here Sunday, began today. Solemn requiem mass iras said at the chapel ot the House ot Providence Convent at 10 o'clock. The Rev. Father F. Verwllghen was the celebrant, and was assisted by Father Kauten, of Seattle, and Father Delannoy, ot Vancouver. Right Rev. E. J. O'Dea, bishop ot Nlsqually, was in the sanctuary during the service, and was assisted by the Rev. Fathers L. Verhaag and Vanderven.

After the service the remains were removed from the chapel to the community room of the con vent, where they will lie In state until 10 o'clock tomorrow, when they will be taken to St. James Cathedral, -where the funeral proper will take place. No death In recent years In Vancouver caused such general regret as that of Mother Joseph, who died Sunday. She had resided here 45 years, and was universally beloved. Mother Joseph was well known In Catholic Church circles throughout the Northwest. Sho was born a St. Martin, Canada, April 27. 1823. She was educated at the Convent of St. Martin, and entered the novitiate as a Sister of Charity In Montreal In 1843, the year th order of Sisters of Charity of the House ot Providence was founded by Bishop Ignace Bourget, she being the 13th member ot that organization. She came West as a missionary In 1S5G, and founded tho House ot Proildence at Vancouver In December of the same year. The magnificent coment which ehe founded was practically the work of her active brain and hands. She was the architect that planned It, and she personally su perintended the construction of the great building. The building was begun In 1873, and completed as l now stands In 1692. After founding the mission here, which she did with the aid of Ave other Sisters of the order, she was made Mother Superior ot the Institution, which responsible position she occupied for 10 years, and since that time had been regarded as the practical head of the order in the diocese. In addition to the convent she founded St. Joseph Hospital here, and superintended Its con struction and management. owned by any one concern in the world, has begun to gather in its sheep In prep aration for lambing, which will commence about February 1.

Both wero prominent and popular young women, from the leading families of the town, and had pleasant homes and, so far as is known, no reason existed for their untimely self-destruction. Mre. Gaunt had been separated frcm her hus band for several months, but none of her friends suspected that her domestic trou bles weighed sufficiently heavy on her mind to cause her to contemplate suicide. The poison was taken about half past S o'clock last night. Miss Ungerman had been acting as night operator in the tel ephone offlcc. She was accompanied to her work by Mrs. Gaunt, and both seemed to be in the best spirits when Mr. Hem bree, the proprietor of the 6tore in which the telephone office Is situated, left his establishment early in the evening.

Sheriff and Joint Senator the Offices Meat Coveted Largre Recent Galas fer tke Republicans. SALEM, Or., Jan. 22. Marion County Democrats are not taking the active in terest In the coming political campaign that has been manifested by Republicans. As expressed by a prominent Democrat today, they are waiting to see what the Republicans will do, and will govern themselves accordingly. Marlon County Is strongly Republican at present aand only an exceptional state of political affairs will enable the Democrats to elect a candidate to office. A nomination on the Republican ticket Is considered equal to an election, though Frank W. Durbln twice has been elected Sheriff on the op position ticket. There Is some talk of the Democrats try ing to secure two offices as a result of the next election the Sheriff's office and the Joint Senatorshlp. Marion and Linn Counties will this year elect a Joint Sen ator. As XJnn goes Democratic more than half the time, the opposition would stand a better chance to elect a candidate to this office than to any other in which Marlon County Is Interested. But In order to be successful even In this instanace the Democrats would be obliged to nominate a man who could draw votes from the Republican ranks. If the Republicans should nomlnatae a man who Is person ally a poor vote-getter, tho Democrats will put up their strongest man and try to capture the Joint Senatorshlp. The fact that Frank Durbln, the Dem ocratic Sheriff, has given- satisfaction In tho administration of his duties Is all that gives the opposition hope of elect ing another man to that office. B. B. Colbath, the present first Deputy Sheriff, Is talked of as a probable candidate for the Democratic nomination. Concerning other offices, there is practically no talk. The Republicans, it would eeem, have less to fear from the opposition now than they had two years ago. Many men who left the Republican party In 1SS6. when the sliver question was paramount, returned to the party In 1900. and more are now returning. Borne Democrats and Popu lists and many Free-Silver Republicans are now firmly united with the Repub lican party and will vote accordingly. In addition to this, many of the former sup porters of the fusion ticket will now be found in the ranks of tho Socialists, So that the Republican plurality will be larg er still. The position of two of the local news papers shows something of what the Democrats will have to contend with In the coming campaign. The Capital Jour nal, which was the voice of the opposi tion In this county In the last two cam paigns. Is now Independent, with a fre quently manifested Intention to take part In the discussion of questions to be set tled wholly within the Republican party. Tho Oregon Independent. whlcH was a supporter of Bryan and free silver, Is now back In the Republican ranks, and the aid of this paper will also be lost to the Democrats. In view of all these clrcumstnnces. It Is not surprising that Democratic leaders are keeping pretty quiet as yet. When the Republicans have become thoroughly 'warmed, up In their own factional fight the Democrats will begin to look for some opportunity to gain a possible advantage. Until then, say some of the leaders of that party, there will be little doing In Marlon County politics, except among the Republicans Knykendnll Not Yet Decided. SALEM, Or.. Jan. 22.

A sick stomach sours the disposition and prevents sleep and brain rest, and a sick brain sours the stomach and clogs the bowels. Men of sedentary habits, brain workers who don't get much txercise, have sick stomachs and bowels, and wear out their brains and nerves.
