Prom the Republican, Sanla Rosa. Cal. Here is a true story from California: Some three years ago, James H. Fnlk ner, of Santa Rosa, while prospecting, discovered a quicksilver mine, and while preparing to worn it, was alone ou his ranch, far from any one. It was there lie was attacked by pnen moaia, and when found five days after and carried to his home he was ap parently dying. Ho did not die, how ever, but for over a year was in daily expectancy of death from what was pro nounced by nearly all the physicians as consumption. At the end of about one year Mr. Falkne'r heard that Br. Williams' Pink Pills were sometimes efficacious in such maladies as his. and procured some. The result was astounding, for before three boxes of pills had been taken, the man who had been given over, and could not walk without assistance, when he began their use, was working at his trade, and has ever since been a hale and hearty man. These facts are vouched for by such men as Sheriff Allen, Mr. C. L. Ma bley, the oity clerk of Santa Rosa. Mr. Perry Fitts, the well-known lumber dealer, and many others, and are made the subject of quite an extended article in the Santa Rosa Republican by Mr. Virgil Moore, the well-known corre spondent, who resides near Mr. Falk ner, and Was familiar with the whole circumstances. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They are sold in boxes (never in loose form, by the dozen or hundred) at 60 centB a box, or six boxes for $3.50, and may be had of all druggists or directly by mail from Br. Williams' Medicine Co., Schenec tady, N. Y. Trolley Service Without Wire. The electric trolley system to be intro duced in Paris in time for the Interna tional exposition of 1900 is vastly (lif erent from that commonly employed in the United States, inasmuch as the dangerous overhead wires are absolutely done away with, according to the Philadelphia Inquirer. The new sys tem is the invention of the French en gineer, Bochet, and, while rather sim ple, it steers clear of the objeotion of unsightly obstruction which is usually raised when overhead wires have to go up. Bochet establishes overhead con tacts from electric lamposts belonging to the city, the distance between posts being somewhat smaller than tho length of the electric train, consisting of two or three cars, so that contact is always assured at one point at least. Through flexible points of contact sus pended frpm each electric post along the proposed line the current will be taken up by means of a copper rail fastened along the edge of the roof of the car not less than 14 or 15 feet from the ground. The contact point will slide along that copper rail and there is not the slightest difficulty in establishing a continuous current if the points of contact are made sufficiently elastic. The current is allowed to return to the power sta tion through the track of the line, as usual. This system offers all the bene fits of the overhead as well as of the underground system without any of their shortcomings. A Miracle of Hurgery. A man named George Burns, who will soon walk out of Cook County (Chicago) hospital, is a living example of the miracles performed by modern surgery. He went into the hospital broken up in bone and body, and when he leaves the hospital he will carry with him a certificate showing he has been the victim of the most remarkable assortment of hurts that ever befell a mortal being. Surgeons report him broken up as follows: Loss of the entire bony vault of the skull, the top of the head being covered with a silver plate. Five ribs gone from the left side of the body, having been removed by sur geons in an operation. Heart shifted from its natural posi tion to the right side in order to secure a firm resting place for that organ. Both legs fractured in two places and right arm broken twice. Both elbow joints gone and the cap of the right knee twisted around to the back of the leg. Large piece of the breastbone taken out in the removal of a rifle ball. Part of the windpipe missing. Notwitstanding all that he has gone through, the Tribune says, Burns is still in a condition to shift for himself and earn his own living like other Durable Shoe Hole. A German inventor has found a way to make durable shoe soles. He ap plies waterproof glne to the leather and then sticks on a lot of clean quartz sand. This wears splendidly, besides giving a good foothold when walking is slippery. It is said that these sole are as flexible as could be desired. Not Captain Kiilii'a Treasure. A quantity of gold and silver coin was discovered tho other day at Casino Beach, Astoria, L. 1., by workmen en gaged in making excavations for some new buildings. The coins were found at a depth of forty fe ;t and ranged in date from luGl, the time of Napoleon III. At first they were supposed to be part of the treasure generally believed to have been buried by the pirate, Kidd, but the presence of a coin of Napoleon III spoils a good story.
