Her room-mate found her crying on

"It's a trick." she cried; "a trick of
Nicholas and Wltte. The Romanoffs
know no more of constitutions and lib

are trvlng to fool the peasants who
trust the cxar."
About this time Reveral circles for
socialistic study were formed In San
Francisco, Herkelev and Stanford. Jack
London and others were the leading
spirits In the movement and the Misses
Strunsky became members. Shortly af

Many women suffer in alienee and
drift along from bad to worM, knowing-
well thai they ought to hare
immediate assistance.
How many women do you know
who are perfectly well and strong?
Thecanse may be easily traced to
some feminine derangement which
manifests itself in depression of
spirits, reluctanca to go anywhere
or do anything, backache, dragging
sensations, flatulency, nervousness,
and sleeplessness.
These symptoms are but warnings
that there is danger ahead, and un
less heeded, a life of suffering or a
serious operation is the lneTltaDie
result. The best remedy for all
these symptom is
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
made from native roots and herbs. No other medicine in the country has
received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medi
cine has such a record of cures of female ills.
Miss J. F. Walsh, of 328 W. 36th St., New York City, writes: "Lydia
E. rinkham's Vegetable Compound has been of Inestimsble value In
restoring my health. I suffered from female illness which caused
dreadful headaches, dizziness, and dull pains in my back, but your
medicine soon brought about a change In my general condition, bullt
me up and made me perfeotly well."
Lydia E. Pinkharo's Vegetable Compound cures Female Complaints,
such as Backache, Falling and Displacements, Inflammation and Ulcera

and during the Change of Life. It cures Nervous Prostration, Headache,

arriving on every train, options are cov

developed.
General Manager Taylor has wired
for a cap for the well so the oil can
be controlled whep the well Is opened.
It will arrive within two or three days
. and It is not expected that anything
will be done until It comes. It is
thought, however, that another blowout
is liable te occur at any time.
Considerable oil stone hns been found
where It fell about the well. It read
ily burns when lighted, l.leces of verv

ihe gusher.
General Manager Taylor states that
as soor as this well Is clenned out. If
it Is found that It Is not necessary to
bore dec:ier. other wells will be begun
Immediately and the company will pro
ceed to develop the field on a large
scalp. Doubt no longer exists that this
entire basin Is underlaid with oil and
gas.
The well Is within the city limits,
within a few hundred feet of the Pay

Should all rneiribers of the council be
present tomorrow evening there Is little
doubt that the Davldor gas franchise
will be granted by the St. Johns mu
nlclpal body. The principle reason for
tho refusal of the council to pass It at
the last meeting wa because Peter
Autzcn, the new councilman, was ab
sent. No member of the council wishes
to assume the responsibility of theven
ture without the full concurrence of the
entire body.
The price nslced for the gas. $1.45 per
i.uuu ciinic feet, is regarded by many
to ne hign. un the other hand the ma
jority of the present citizens of St
Johns are willing to pay that much for
gas, primarily, to obtain the expendi
ture cf the many thousands of dollars
which It will require to build the plant
and the subsequent activity and Indus
trious appearance It will give to tho
city; secondly, many people want gas
and really helleve that gas for heating
at $1.45 per 1.0U0 feet will be cheaper
than wood. .
The franchise hns many alluring fea
tures. It pays to the city treasurer a
fixed sum yearly which Increases with
the population. Also when the popula
tion of St. Johns reaches 35,000 It Is
promised the price of gas will be
lowered from $1.45 to $1.05 per 1,000
