CHOLERA IN JAPAN
CUTS LOSE FROM TAMMANY
Aii Epidemic Among the
Yellow People.
Roarke Cochrane Through wltli Crocker
and His Cans Coilett to
Marry.
Victoria, B. C, Aug. 15. Although
passengers arriving by the Oriental lin
ers that have reached here this week
agree in the statement that cholera is
working frightful havoc in Japan, the
newspapers of that country contain no
reference to the devastations of the
plague. This is probably due to the fact
that the disease finds its victims chief
ly among soldiers recently retained from
the front, and the government takes ad
vantage of the law relating to the press
censorship to its fullest extent.
According to the officers of the Vic
toria and the more recently arrived Em
press of Japan, the military has suffered
a loss of thousands during the past few
months and the principal etations in
Japan are at present converted into
great hospitals. The Formosa expedi
tion has proved especially disastrioue.

El Paso, Tex., Aug. 15. Today M. T.
McLean, a prominent sporting man of
Chicago, who came here a few days ago
to see what arrangements could be

case it was stopped at Dallas, received a
telegram from Joe Hampson, a big rail
road contractor of Mexico, stating that
President Diaz would, under no consid
eration, allow the fight to take place on
Mexican soil. Billy Smith, a pugilist,
has been sent to the City of Mexico to
give a boxing contest with Jimmy Car
roll before President Diaz's cabinet to
show them the sport is not brutal.

New Yobk, Aug. 15. Just before sail
ing for Europe Mrs. D. Kallias Bey, for
merly Mrs. P. T. Barnum, gave the fol
lowing explanation ot her marriage to
the Grecian general, whose name she
now bears :
"Before Mr. Barnum died," said she,
he told me that were I to meet one
whom I loved, he wished me to marry
him. I promised to do so. I met Mr.
Kallias and we were married. Since
then I have received the congratulations
of Mr. Barnum's children and of many
close friends of his.

San Francisco, Aug. 15. Ricardo H.
F. Von Winckler, who is superintend
ing the construction of C. P. Hunting
ton's new railroad lines in Guatemala,

a great deal of money into the new road
and that it is rapidly developing into an
immensely valuable property, as it is
pushed through the heart of the richest
coffee and cane section of Guatemala.
He says 600 men are working on the
road. The new line is completed from a
point on theGuatemala Central road
nine miles below Escuintia to Santa
Lucia, and is now building to Papulun,
with prospects that it will be extended
through the mountains to Metzatlango
as rapidly as the work can be pushed.
Over 20 miles of the road is now in
operation.
A. Famous Painter.
Philadelphia, Aug. 15. Thomas
Hovenden, who was killed by a Penn
sylvania railroad train near Norristown
last evening, was one of the leading art
ists that America, has produced. His
best-known painting, "Breaking Home
Ties," has been engraved probably more
than the work of any other American
artist, and is a familiar object on the
walls of thousands of homes in the Unit
ed States. The painting was one the
most notable groups of American paint

REGULATOR
Reader, did you ever take Simmons
Liver Regulator, the "Knra op
Liver Medicines ?" Everybody needi
take a liver remedy. It is a sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Biliousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by ah
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou
bles, and give tone to the whole sys
tem. For a laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is better than Pills. It
does not gripe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.
Every package has the Red Z
stamp on the wrapper. J. II.

There are so many accidents to live
stock whicn cause delay and loss to the
farmer in his work. In a large number
of instances the delay would be but
trifling if a remedy was promptly applied.
Dr. J. H. McLean's Volcanic Oil Lini
ment has for many years been regarded
as the farmer's friend. Its healing on
flesh of domestic animals is immediate
and permanent. Price 25c, 50c and $1.00

It is the best patent medicine in the
world" is what Mr. E. M. Hart man, of
Marquam, Oregon, says of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
"What leads me to make this assertion
is from the fact that dysentery in its
worst form was prevalent around here
last summer and it never took over two
or three doses of that remedy to effect a
complete cure." For sale by Blakeley &
Houghton Druggist.
The Vlnsons Burled.
Ellessbubg, Wash., Aug. 15. The
two Vlnsons, the victims of the mob,

kind. It now seems probable steps will
be taken to investigate the lynching.. A
good collection was taken today for Mrs.
Vinson, the wife and mother of the
lynched men.
Mr. C. G. Strong, principal of the
public schools at Anderson, Cal., says:
"I have used Chamberlain's Pain Balm
and have found it an excellent remedy
for lameness and slight wounds."

or other injury, or from rheumatism, for
which Chamberlain's Pain Balm is es
pecially intended and unequalled. It
affords almost immediate relief and in a
snort time effects a permanent cure.
