Tbe annonocetifcMit that all the Euro

importance to tbe people of tbis country.
This "open djor" is very eimple. All
ibe United States wants is an assurance
in advance that io the various "spheres
of influence" which are biug established
in China by the great powers of Europe,
tbe United States ebail te given the

Of China and tbey have agreed tbat tbey

all tbe rights and privileges of trade
that are enjoyed by the citizens of

cause it is jast and also because it is
backed by a powerful nation with tbe

ROBERTS HAS THREE WIVES.
He Will Not Be Allowed to Remain
In Congress.
Wasiiisutcs, Jan. 17. The i-p.cial

LOOK OUT FOR THE FAKIRS.
There ooght to be s me way devised
try Elcli oar- established bueioeea men
coald be protected against intinerant
venders of spurious wares and merchan
disc. Our business men are honest and
public-spirited citizens. They have
their homes here. Tbey pay taxes to
support tbe city and county, to boi'.d
reads and bridges, support schools and a
hundred other public necessities. They
contribute of tbe proceeds of thir busi
ness to all kiocLs of public and private
enterprises. Tbey are bonet and re'i
able in every way. Tbey guarantee the
quality of their goods and remain here to
make their guarantee good. And yet
when come tin-born salesman comes
along with a lot of cheap, shelf
or shop-worn goods, or damaged or
inferior implements or musical in
struments, which couIJ not be sold in
the Isrgnr cities at any price, tbey
are allowed . to place their shabby
worthless goods ij competition with
those of honest and reli ble dealerr.
Take as au illustration these facte. We
have in our city one or more hour at, re
liable dealers in musical iasiruuients
caesper ana 01 better qaauty than can
be bought elsewhere, and yet any un
scrupulous or unreliable foreign dealer
can bring io a car load of eld, second

them in competition with the local deal

be said that jsole don'c hsve

oar people who will soon be looking for
someone to kick them for their folly in
allowing themselves to be taken in by

A!oi.Uf
Is it Felo Dc Sc?
from word received from Duasuiuir in
Asniaca .Monday tact, it appears as
though Conrad Gegax, formerly ol this
city, and an old and w.l known train
man of the S. P. Co.'e railroad, has again
made an attempt on his life, perhaps
succeeded.
Gegax left Lis home and family in
Dunemnir last week for a visit to Wi!-
I lows, Cal. Oa Suaday his w ile in Duns-
muir was in receipt of a letter from him
and a packet containing bis watch and
B3U30 money, the letter Mating that by
tbe tine she hid receive J it hi would be
engulfed in the bay meaning tbe bay of
Saa Francis:o; and that eince bis at
tempt on his life, iu August last, he felt
ashamed to face his former friends and
acquaintances. Green, a brother-in law
of the nnfortnnate man, left Dunsniuir
on the first train thereafter for San Fran
cinco in search of Gegax or a clue to bim.
Conrad Geax foimerly was in the
service of '-he S. P. Company as brake
man on the run sooth cf Ashland, and
later as a conductor on the branch of the
S. P. eyeteoi known aa thj McCloadlliy
erRailwav. He quit the employ of Ibe
company in August, purchased a clock
of goods and engaged in tun grocery
business in L inmuir. While arranging
bis goods in liis flora for display, on
August 2lPt, lie e;emed to have been
seized wi:hu eudden aberration uf the
mind, raided bis baud tc bis temples
and tben left the buiidiug, and walked
up tbe railroad track a short distance lo
it shed which be entered and shot hitu
self in the head, the bullet from bis pis
101 loading in ins hrain. At nrst it was
thought the eeli-ioilicted wcuud would
prove fatal, but by careful eurgery he te-
s 1
coverei. a nun; iwo weeas ago be was
ia A-hiaud, returning from a 6hort visit
with relatives at Hildhs, in Douglas
county, and frhorily n.'ter his return to
Dansmuir started for the San Fra.icisco
trip, which seems t have had a , fatal
ending and from which he furwarded
the wad letter together with his belong
ings to his wife.
Mrs. Gigsx is reported es beiug pros-
trated over tho unfortunate affair. The
letter which her husband wrote from fr'an
Francisco was on paper headvd with the
"a I" olthe United States Hotel, and
read as follows:
"You have always hven a goad, true
wifn to in and I hope you will be far

Scott, oiie of the a'torneys f jr the c jn

said tonight:
"The importation of soldiers and thugs

We are pleaned to aunouuee that there

Not simply a medical practiiioner. but a

als, but the highest personal endorse
ments from the leading men of the
county congressmen judges, tic,
and hne success in the medical field is
todsy without a parallel. We allude to
Dr. Darrin, who will arrive in tbe city
and will have offices at the McClallen
House.
Dr. Darriu has an 6'iviab'e rank in
hie profession as a wonderfully success
ful phykitiaii. He is tssentially origin
al in his method of practice, and those

surprised at the newness aud novelty of
his system of practice by elec!ricty. His
hones'y and straightforward advice be

conliJence of his patients as well as the
general public. Tbe doctor is a gentle'

vale practice is marked by the formation
of a persoual friendship with tuute with
whom he comes in professional coitac'
He is without doubt ooe of the most
thoroughly qualified pbeiciaos now be

disease genus that are floating in the nir
we breathe and in the water we drink
gernis of t"phoid fever, malaria, con
munption. Compared to a disease germ,
a rattlesnake is a gentleman. He is a
fair fighter. He tells you to look out
He rattles before he strikes. You have
a chance to fight or run. The disease
germ sneaks in. It comes while you are
sleeping. It gains an entrance to the
blood. It propagates there. It multi
plies. In a few hours, or day, your
blood is full of its children millions of
them. They go all over your Ixxly seek
ing a weak spot. They don't rnttle
they strike. You feci listless, nerveless,
sluggish, feverish, and may he you're flat
on your back before you really know
there is anything the matter.
The only way to keep out disease
germs to keep from being sick is to
keep your blood pure and rich, and your
liver active ami healthy.
