A verdict was rendered in the

case was made a test The parties were

The board of city trustees, of Pcta
luma, CaL, have passed an ordinance
relative to street parades and the ob
struction of streets and sidewalks. It
is aimed at the salvation army pa
rades, which have been a cause of so
much disturbance in that city. The
Salvationists say thoy will apply at
once for a permit, and if refused will
parade as usual, and that they will
fill the jails before they turn back
from their work. It is one thing to
pass ordinances and another to en
force them. We have a few ordi
nances in Astoria of the nature of
those referred to, but they seem to
have fallen into "inoc well, they
don't seem to do any good.
How Men Die.
If we know all the methods of ap
proach adopted by an enemy we are
the better enabled to ward off the
danger and pospone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In
many instances the inherent strength
of the body suffices to enable it to op
pose the tendency toward death.
Many however have lost these forces
to such an extent that there is little
or no help. In other cases a little
aid to the weakened Lungs will make
all the difference between sudden
death and many years of useful life.
Upon the first symptoms of a Cough,
Cold or any trouble of the Throat or
Luugs, give that old and wellknown
remedy Boschee's German Syrup, a
careful trial. It will prove what
thousands say of it to be, the "bene
factor of any home."
A Wide Difference.
Esther Holladay, widow of the late
Ben Holladay, instituted proceedings
in Multnomah connty conrt, to com
pel her brother-in-law, Joseph Holla
day, executor of the estate of his
brother Ben, to show cause why he
should not pay her about S3.000 ar
rears due her on the monthly allow
ance allowed her by the court out of
the estate. In her sworn complaint
she asserts that her husband, Ben
Holladay, died possessed of an estate
worth 31,500,000. In his sworn an
swer to the demand of the widow,
Joseph Holladay, denies that Ben
Holladay died possessed of an estate
worth $1,500,000, or any other sum;
that while it is true that he was the
owner of a large amount of property
he was neither possessed nor entitled
to the possession of it; that the whole
of it was at the time of his death, and
for a long time prior thereto, encum
bered, and m the possession and con
trol of other parties, and nt the time
of his death ho did not have means
with which to pay the expenses of his
last sickneps and funeral.
Ladies in delicate health, and all who
suiter from habitual constipation, will
find the pleasant Californi.i liquid fruit
remedy, Syrup of Fiss, more pasily
taken and more beneficial in effect than
vn y other remedy. It acts promptly yet
gently on the bowels, kidnejs, liver and
stomach, and does not sicken or debili
tate. For sale by all druggists.
Fuller'8 Insanity.
Archbishop Gross returned on
Wednesday from Victoria, where he
participated in the obsequies of the
late archbishop Seghers. The remains
lay in state on the U. S. gunboat The
tis on the way down. The remains
were conveyed to the shore in a small
boat While this was being done all
the vessels in the harbor dropped
their flags, out of respect to the de
parted. The funeral ceremonies were
most elaborate and imposing. The
sermon was preached by bishop Bron
del, and the remains were placed in
the vault at St. Mary's Cathedral, it
was learned that Frank Fuller's bul
let struck above the heart and severed
the main artery of that organ. Arch
bishop Gross has a copy of archbish
op Seghers' diary kept up to within
fonr days of his death. Iu this is
mentioned in several places .the fact
that Fuller had on divers occasions
shown marked signs of insanity.
This was manifested by incoher
ent, rambling remarks and queer
actions. News, S3.

If I had known of tha CirricunA Reme

an immense amount of suffering. My disease
(Psoriasis) commenced on my bead in a spot
not larger than a cent. It spread rapidly all
over my body and pot under my nails. The
scales would drop off of mo all tha time, and
my sufferings were endless, and without re
lief. One thousand dollars would not tempt
me to havo this disease, over again. lama
poor man, but I leel rich to bo relieved of
what some of tho doctors said was leprosy,
some ring-worm, psoriasis, etc I took. ........
and ......... Sarsaparillas over ono year and a
half, but no cure, I went to two or three
doctors and bo euro, I cannot praise the
CuticURA Kkmedies too much, They have
made my skin as clear and free from scales
asabab7's. All I used of-them was three
boxes of Outicdra, and three bottles of Clf
ticuka KksolVknt, and two cakes of Cc
ticuba Soap, If yen had been here and
said you would have cured me for $200,00 you
would have had the money, 1 looked like
the picture in your book of Psoriasis (picture

but now X am as cloar as any person ever
was. Through force of habit I rub mv hands
over my arms and legs once in a while, but
to no purpose, I am all well, I icratched

The distresses sneeze, sneeze, sneeze, the

the throat, the swelling of the mucous lining,
c lusing choking sensations, cough, ringing
noises in the head and splitting headaches,
now familar tnese symptoms are to thousands
who suffer periodically from head colds or in
fluenza, and who live in isno'ance of the fact
that asingle application of aANcor.n's Had

stantanenu relief.
But this treatment in cases of simple Catarrh
gives but faint idea of what this remedy will
do in the chronic forms, where the breathing
is obstructed by chokina. outrid mucous ac
cumulations, the hearing affected, smell and
