THE GRADUATES. —o The Exercises at the: Theater—An Entire Success in Every Re Spect. The Theater was crowded with an intelligent and critical audience on Friday afternoon to listen to the yraduating exercises of the Class of ’87. The opinion seems to be, without exception, that we have never had an exercise of the kind more entirely successful. Ata few minutes after two o'clock Miss Carrie Naffziger took a seat at the piano and played a ‘march to the time of which the class came in, and after being introduced by. their prineipal and teacher, Prof.-T. B. Gray, took seats arranged in a semicircle upon the stage. Two tiers of seats similarly arranged behind the graduyoung ladies and gentlemen, members of the Middle and ‘Junior classes of the High School, who, with the Graduates, furnished the music for the occasion. Over the heads of the singers, upon a -black. banner stretching across. the stage, the-class-motto“No excellence without toil’’—was. displayed in large gilt letters. The stage itself was very tastefully decorated with ferns, evergreens and flowers. The entire seene presented upon the stage was very beautiful, the most .:ttractive feature being the fine array of so many pretty young ladies and young }gentlemen. The music was furnished entirely by these young people. The singing was very creditable to ‘themselves and their instructress, Mrs. EH, G. Parsons. Misses Carrie Naftziger and Edith Goyne presided at the piano alternately. : After the singing of the opening chorus—The Herd Bells’”—the salutatorian, Wats -n Charles, was introduced. His salutatory was brief, as it should be, and appropriate, and delivered in a plain common sense manner. « Miss Jessie Rich followed with an essay on the “Dignity of Labor.’’? Her essay was good and read in a distinct and impressive manner. Her conclusions-that “any abor-that-is honest-is honorable’”’ and that an idler, without regard to his circumstances, ‘‘is not so honorable as a scavenger or a bootblack,” are truths that cannot be too well understood by graduates of high schools and colleges. Compton Gault next delivered an oration: on, “Labor Strikes—Their Cause and Effect.” The speech was well delivered, and was a good argument showing that labor strikes are njurious even when successful, and disastrously 'so when they are not successful. : The chorus, ‘To Stay at Home Is Best,’”’ was followed by Miss Edith Goyne, with an excellent essay on Literature.” Her voice is weak but her articulation was so good as to althost if not intirely overcome this defect of nature. She handled the subject well, and showed an excellent knowledge of current literature, closing with a glowing tribute to Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe. An oration in which the important question, ‘‘Wha’ to Do With the Indian,” was well handled by Albert Kidd. The Indian need not want a better advocate, A fine essay on ‘‘Succeas,the Reward of Merit,” was next very well read by iiss Maggie O’Connell. Miss Lulu Clutter had an essay on ‘The Work of Time,” which was full of noble thoughts, and readin an impressive manner. Clarence Organ had a good oration on ‘‘Warfare,” that showed an understanding of Current history, and corttrusted the situation of the United States with the rest of the world’ in a truthful and patriotic manner. “My Dream" an essay by Miss Maggie Gillespie, was a class prophecy. She handled the subject in an original manner, and in her excellent delivery as well as the matter of her essay pleased the audience best. David Matteson the valedictorian had an oration entitled Prometheus and Fpimetheus. It showed much reading and a ready faculty for using iniormaHis. delivery was yood. His valedictory was briet and sensible. There was_a little effort to be humorous in which\he did not succeed ¢o well as with his serious composition. The ‘Farewell ofthe School’ by ‘liss Minnie Lester, wasd'a_very appropriate little speech and delivered in a natural and feeling manner. E. M. Preston delivered an address to the Graduates that was full of good sense. His familiarity with school work: enabled him to say just the things that were needed. M. L. Marsh, as chairman of the City Board of Education, delivered the diplomas, and the exercises closed with the chorus: ‘Oft in the Puthway.” : Bi There was little effort at*‘oratorical display in any of the exercises, but the delivery was easy and. decidedly creditable. A-distinguishing feature and one reflecting the highest credit upon their teacher and themselvewas distinct articulation and clear enunciation. This gave weak voices a power without which they must have failed, and was-a constant source of pleasure to the audience, Teacher Wanted. A teacher-for the Moore’s Flat school is wanted.

The quartz mining prospect at Graniteville, this county, was never better than at the present time. There are more men employed there now than at any time during the past five years. { The Rocky Glen company are putting up new hoisting works and expect to get started up in a very short time, when sinking will be resumed. The prospects of this mine are excellent. : The Gambrinus: company ‘are running a tunnel and sinking a shaft. They have a ten-stamp mill which is run by steam. The California has a 10-stamp mill, and the mine is looking. well. The work of developnient is going on very rapidly, : The Baltic has a 10-stamp mill, and a great deal of work is being done in the mine : ——S er _ The Dublin Bay has a very large ledge, and it-only-takes four men to get out rock enough to keep its 10stamp mill running all the time: The Gambrinus, Baltic and Dublin Bay are all worked under the superintendence of E; W. Roberts; of Oukland. Mr. Roberts has just let a contract for the erection of a saw mill Which will be used exclusively for sawing out timbers for the use of the Baltic, Dublin Bay and Gambrinus mines. Maybanks and Parsons are running a tunnel to tap their ledge. Wall & Burr are working on a very small ledge but it is exceedingly rich. Some of the specimens taken out were literally filled with gold. S. R. Shepp has a fine looking ledze and is taking out considerable rock. George Rooker is running a tunnel and will soon reach the ledge. Doc. Booth has a splendid looking body of ore in his mine. W. H. Morse has a good ledge in the town of Graniteville. He has suspended work for the present, haying contracted to build the new saw mill there. The Republic is lying idle, asis also the National, but it is said they will be started up this summer. The Mulligan _mine,owned-by J-W. Connelly, of Petaluma, is lying idle. It is expected to be started up soon, There is more prospecting going on than ever known before. The rock in the district yields from $10 to $40 per ton. A Narrow Escape. There was a very narrow escape from a destructive fire at You Bet on Friday night last. A social party was being held in Odd Fellows’ Hall, and a guest opened one of the windows in the building, and in doing so knocked down a coal oil lamp. The lamp was broken and the oil cauzht fire, causing a panic among the people present. To make matters ‘worse a bystander attempted to extinguish it with achair! After doing damage to the extent of about $100 the fire was extinguished. It was a very narrow escape from a serious conflagration. Mrs. Selfridge, who was at the window at the time, fainted, and is now in a critical condition, Mr. Matteson had his hands badly burned: For a few minutes it was thought an impossibility to save the hall, but by hard work it was accomplished. ’ et A Good Suggestion. The Mining Adovcate of San: Francisco makes a good suggestion, and that. is, that now Senators Stanford and Hearst are in the State and relieved fiom Congressional cares, it would be w good time for the niiners of the State to insist that/the mining question should be investigated by them before going again to their duties at Washington. It would be well to include all members of the lower house of Congress as well as Senators. The discussion on the mining question which has been’ going on during the best part of a year, has shown conclusively that it has not been understood by the people at large as well as their representatives. The members of both houses of Congress are paid for their services by the year and not by the session and their time belongs to the public. The miners whose interests have been destroyed and those who are in peril, have aright to demand to be heard by their representatives,and should have no delicacy in making proper demar ds. It is no Tess the duty than it will be the pleasure of Califorin repre entives in Congress,to listen to the wants of their constituents: and When pressed withduties in Washington but little attention.can be expected. The miners by petition can present the grievances. A better and more forcible mode would be to act by delegations. The argument on the miners’ side_needs to be rammed home to these men. When public sentiment is changing as it is, on the restrictions put upon mining, is a good time to force an audience and a hearing. Heat aU DE ate Sek " Was He Murdered ? Owing to the multitudinousduties devolving upon the “sub” editor of the Transcript he was unable to attend the Graduates’ Ball. Provision was made, however, in a person who was competent to write up the affair in good shape, Up to 6% o’clock yesterday the ‘‘sub’s-sub’’ failed to showup, and in fact he had not made ‘his appearance at his boarding-house (where he never before missed a meal or paid a cent) since Friday noon, when he ate a big dinner.

We hope he has for bloody’ “All Mining is Legitmate." “The miner has only to take care of his tailings, so that no one is injured, and he can pursue his business unmolested.” Iieommenting upon the above valley twaddle the Mining Advocate truthfully says: These are the stereotyped phrases with which some people are beguiled. They go the rounds and do their deceptive duty. The fact. that a substantial impounding dam was built at Liberty Hill, torestrain debris andthe miners were prowibited from using it,has been made known through these colunns. That dam is standing solid and intactsoday and is capable of taking care of all the debris ‘that is possible to be made from’ the mines at heavy expense to restrain their taifings, all to no purpose. Nor will any of these restraining dams be of any use 8o long as the present courts are not statutory law. We have in mind other debris dams which are well constructed and adapted to the purposes for which they were made, the use of which has been arbitrarily prohibited by the courts. A-notable instance is that of two dams on Slate Creek in Sierra county,where four companies united in building the dams in advance of any complaint against the‘side. These companies were, the Sierra Union Water, the Nevada, the Pioneer, and the Poverty Hil} companies. The lower dam built by these companies is 170 feet long on the top, 19 feet thick and 31% feet high. . It is built of spruce log cribs filled with rock brush, the logs from 24 to.37 inches inches in diameter at the small end. The cross logs are from 18 to 23 inches, dovetailed into the others and bolted with 13 inch, bolts from 443 to5 feet long. As there ure but 42 square miles of water shed above the dams,and as the entire work is of the most substantial character, it is evident that the miners did their best, and more than was necessary to make their work stand any ‘strain to which it could possibly be subject. Slate creek having a grade of but four inches to the rod, the lower dam backs the debris one mile in length and from 200 to 1,000 feet wide. The-storage capacity of such a dam is immense, By continuing the height the amount of debris provided for is vastly inereased. But this dam is «8 mall: n+» compared with the one above, if we estimate by the quantity of debris to be impounded. ©The upper ‘dam is constucted in the most solid manner like the lower. Itvis located 6,000 feet above the other. Its height is 25 feet,length 150 feet and was built to back debris four miles and from 400 to 1,000 feet in width on the top. When in use these dams controlled all the debris dumped into them, Nota particle of debris is found below the dams. They were built in good faith, relying on the assertions of supposed reliable authority, that all mining 1s legitimate if only the debris is taken care of Judge Keyser was invited to visit these dams and see for himself how well they were made and how completely they did their work. The appeal of the miners was of no avail. An injunction was laid, the mines shut down, and the restraining dams left.as, monuments to judicial tyranny. Still the dismal song is sung at even tide by certain bucolic papers that ‘all mining is legitimate.” “Nobody will trouble the miner who takes care of his tailings.” In a recent lecture before the Royal Institution in England Dr. Klein asserted that scarlet fever generally, if not always, is due to milk used in diet. The terrible disease is, he said, caused by the presence and growth of a microscopical organism which flourishes in cows and which appears in their milk. If before using it the milk of an infected cow be heated to 185 degrees the germ of the disease is killed, but if the milk be drank fresh from the cow, scarlet fever is sure to follow. The presence of the germs in cowa can be detected, 5 aes Tue National Republican, in the course of a long e litorial reviewing the outlook forthe presidential contest of 1888 and the possible candidates of the two great parties, advocates thenomination of Senator Leland Stanford for President.

A meeting of the stockholders of the California Iron and Steel Company, a corporation which has extensive works in the lower part of Nevada county, was held in San Francisco for the purpose of considering some way of axtricating the company from its financial difficulties. For two years the enterprise is said to have been suffering from bad management and its stock has been selling ata low price. Early in the year 1884 it was paying dividends, and in the summer of the same year the stockholders were surprised when one month the dividend was omitted and an assessment levied. Inquiry developed the fact that under the management of Charles Chamberlin,. the Superintendent, the works had got heavily in debt. Chamberlin was removed, and a desperate effort was made to restore the company to a -sound basis_and re-establish-its_financial condition. Notwithstanding the efforts made, prosperity did not’come. The meeting was called by Charles Pace and Andrew Baird, both of whom are directors. Stockholders representing 12,408 shares of the stock were present. Mr. Baird made a lengthy report upon the affairs of the corporation, claiming that most of. its troubles arose from disputes in the Board of Directors. After a somewhat protracted discussion it was determined to appoint Messrs. Dornin, Murray, Nolan, laird and Pace as a committee to make further inquiriesabout the assets and liabilities, and report at another meeting to be held shortly, They were also instructed to ascertain legal meeting called at which officers and books would have to be in attendance., : A Multitude of Ailments. The ailments which afflict the kidneys and bladder are so numerous, that merely toname them would fill a space far outrunning the limits of this article. Suflice it to say, that they are both obstinate and dangerous. To their prevention Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is well adapted. ‘The stimulus which it lends to the action of the kidneys when they are lethargic, serve to,counteract atendency in them to lapse, first, into a state of pernicious inactivity, and afterwards into one of positive organic disease, which soon destroys their delicate integuments, poisons the blood and causes death. A double purpose is served by this depurent. It promotes activity of the kidneys, and expels impurities from the blood which have no natural channel of outlet, except those organs. Constipation, biliousness, fever and ague, rheumatism and dyspepsia, are also remedied by this medicine of thorough action and wide scope. ee \ Flowers, Flowers.

THE GRADUATES. —o The Exercises at the: Theater—An Entire Success in Every Re Spect. The Theater was crowded with an intelligent and critical audience on Friday afternoon to listen to the yraduating exercises of the Class of ’87. The opinion seems to be, without exception, that we have never had an exercise of the kind more entirely successful. Ata few minutes after two o'clock Miss Carrie Naffziger took a seat at the piano and played a ‘march to the time of which the class came in, and after being introduced by. their prineipal and teacher, Prof.-T. B. Gray, took seats arranged in a semicircle upon the stage. Two tiers of seats similarly arranged behind the graduyoung ladies and gentlemen, members of the Middle and ‘Junior classes of the High School, who, with the Graduates, furnished the music for the occasion. Over the heads of the singers, upon a -black. banner stretching across. the stage, the-class-motto“No excellence without toil’’—was. displayed in large gilt letters. The stage itself was very tastefully decorated with ferns, evergreens and flowers. The entire seene presented upon the stage was very beautiful, the most .:ttractive feature being the fine array of so many pretty young ladies and young }gentlemen. The music was furnished entirely by these young people. The singing was very creditable to ‘themselves and their instructress, Mrs. EH, G. Parsons. Misses Carrie Naftziger and Edith Goyne presided at the piano alternately. : After the singing of the opening chorus—The Herd Bells’”—the salutatorian, Wats -n Charles, was introduced. His salutatory was brief, as it should be, and appropriate, and delivered in a plain common sense manner. « Miss Jessie Rich followed with an essay on the “Dignity of Labor.’’? Her essay was good and read in a distinct and impressive manner. Her conclusions-that “any abor-that-is honest-is honorable’”’ and that an idler, without regard to his circumstances, ‘‘is not so honorable as a scavenger or a bootblack,” are truths that cannot be too well understood by graduates of high schools and colleges. Compton Gault next delivered an oration: on, “Labor Strikes—Their Cause and Effect.” The speech was well delivered, and was a good argument showing that labor strikes are njurious even when successful, and disastrously 'so when they are not successful. : The chorus, ‘To Stay at Home Is Best,’”’ was followed by Miss Edith Goyne, with an excellent essay on Literature.” Her voice is weak but her articulation was so good as to althost if not intirely overcome this defect of nature. She handled the subject well, and showed an excellent knowledge of current literature, closing with a glowing tribute to Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe. An oration in which the important question, ‘‘Wha’ to Do With the Indian,” was well handled by Albert Kidd. The Indian need not want a better advocate, A fine essay on ‘‘Succeas,the Reward of Merit,” was next very well read by iiss Maggie O’Connell. Miss Lulu Clutter had an essay on ‘The Work of Time,” which was full of noble thoughts, and readin an impressive manner. Clarence Organ had a good oration on ‘‘Warfare,” that showed an understanding of Current history, and corttrusted the situation of the United States with the rest of the world’ in a truthful and patriotic manner. “My Dream" an essay by Miss Maggie Gillespie, was a class prophecy. She handled the subject in an original manner, and in her excellent delivery as well as the matter of her essay pleased the audience best. David Matteson the valedictorian had an oration entitled Prometheus and Fpimetheus. It showed much reading and a ready faculty for using iniormaHis. delivery was yood. His valedictory was briet and sensible. There was_a little effort to be humorous in which\he did not succeed ¢o well as with his serious composition. The ‘Farewell ofthe School’ by ‘liss Minnie Lester, wasd'a_very appropriate little speech and delivered in a natural and feeling manner. E. M. Preston delivered an address to the Graduates that was full of good sense. His familiarity with school work: enabled him to say just the things that were needed. M. L. Marsh, as chairman of the City Board of Education, delivered the diplomas, and the exercises closed with the chorus: ‘Oft in the Puthway.” : Bi There was little effort at*‘oratorical display in any of the exercises, but the delivery was easy and. decidedly creditable. A-distinguishing feature and one reflecting the highest credit upon their teacher and themselvewas distinct articulation and clear enunciation. This gave weak voices a power without which they must have failed, and was-a constant source of pleasure to the audience, Teacher Wanted. A teacher-for the Moore’s Flat school is wanted.

The quartz mining prospect at Graniteville, this county, was never better than at the present time. There are more men employed there now than at any time during the past five years. { The Rocky Glen company are putting up new hoisting works and expect to get started up in a very short time, when sinking will be resumed. The prospects of this mine are excellent. : The Gambrinus: company ‘are running a tunnel and sinking a shaft. They have a ten-stamp mill which is run by steam. The California has a 10-stamp mill, and the mine is looking. well. The work of developnient is going on very rapidly, : The Baltic has a 10-stamp mill, and a great deal of work is being done in the mine : ——S er _ The Dublin Bay has a very large ledge, and it-only-takes four men to get out rock enough to keep its 10stamp mill running all the time: The Gambrinus, Baltic and Dublin Bay are all worked under the superintendence of E; W. Roberts; of Oukland. Mr. Roberts has just let a contract for the erection of a saw mill Which will be used exclusively for sawing out timbers for the use of the Baltic, Dublin Bay and Gambrinus mines. Maybanks and Parsons are running a tunnel to tap their ledge. Wall & Burr are working on a very small ledge but it is exceedingly rich. Some of the specimens taken out were literally filled with gold. S. R. Shepp has a fine looking ledze and is taking out considerable rock. George Rooker is running a tunnel and will soon reach the ledge. Doc. Booth has a splendid looking body of ore in his mine. W. H. Morse has a good ledge in the town of Graniteville. He has suspended work for the present, haying contracted to build the new saw mill there. The Republic is lying idle, asis also the National, but it is said they will be started up this summer. The Mulligan _mine,owned-by J-W. Connelly, of Petaluma, is lying idle. It is expected to be started up soon, There is more prospecting going on than ever known before. The rock in the district yields from $10 to $40 per ton. A Narrow Escape. There was a very narrow escape from a destructive fire at You Bet on Friday night last. A social party was being held in Odd Fellows’ Hall, and a guest opened one of the windows in the building, and in doing so knocked down a coal oil lamp. The lamp was broken and the oil cauzht fire, causing a panic among the people present. To make matters ‘worse a bystander attempted to extinguish it with achair! After doing damage to the extent of about $100 the fire was extinguished. It was a very narrow escape from a serious conflagration. Mrs. Selfridge, who was at the window at the time, fainted, and is now in a critical condition, Mr. Matteson had his hands badly burned: For a few minutes it was thought an impossibility to save the hall, but by hard work it was accomplished. ’ et A Good Suggestion. The Mining Adovcate of San: Francisco makes a good suggestion, and that. is, that now Senators Stanford and Hearst are in the State and relieved fiom Congressional cares, it would be w good time for the niiners of the State to insist that/the mining question should be investigated by them before going again to their duties at Washington. It would be well to include all members of the lower house of Congress as well as Senators. The discussion on the mining question which has been’ going on during the best part of a year, has shown conclusively that it has not been understood by the people at large as well as their representatives. The members of both houses of Congress are paid for their services by the year and not by the session and their time belongs to the public. The miners whose interests have been destroyed and those who are in peril, have aright to demand to be heard by their representatives,and should have no delicacy in making proper demar ds. It is no Tess the duty than it will be the pleasure of Califorin repre entives in Congress,to listen to the wants of their constituents: and When pressed withduties in Washington but little attention.can be expected. The miners by petition can present the grievances. A better and more forcible mode would be to act by delegations. The argument on the miners’ side_needs to be rammed home to these men. When public sentiment is changing as it is, on the restrictions put upon mining, is a good time to force an audience and a hearing. Heat aU DE ate Sek " Was He Murdered ? Owing to the multitudinousduties devolving upon the “sub” editor of the Transcript he was unable to attend the Graduates’ Ball. Provision was made, however, in a person who was competent to write up the affair in good shape, Up to 6% o’clock yesterday the ‘‘sub’s-sub’’ failed to showup, and in fact he had not made ‘his appearance at his boarding-house (where he never before missed a meal or paid a cent) since Friday noon, when he ate a big dinner.

We hope he has for bloody’ “All Mining is Legitmate." “The miner has only to take care of his tailings, so that no one is injured, and he can pursue his business unmolested.” Iieommenting upon the above valley twaddle the Mining Advocate truthfully says: These are the stereotyped phrases with which some people are beguiled. They go the rounds and do their deceptive duty. The fact. that a substantial impounding dam was built at Liberty Hill, torestrain debris andthe miners were prowibited from using it,has been made known through these colunns. That dam is standing solid and intactsoday and is capable of taking care of all the debris ‘that is possible to be made from’ the mines at heavy expense to restrain their taifings, all to no purpose. Nor will any of these restraining dams be of any use 8o long as the present courts are not statutory law. We have in mind other debris dams which are well constructed and adapted to the purposes for which they were made, the use of which has been arbitrarily prohibited by the courts. A-notable instance is that of two dams on Slate Creek in Sierra county,where four companies united in building the dams in advance of any complaint against the‘side. These companies were, the Sierra Union Water, the Nevada, the Pioneer, and the Poverty Hil} companies. The lower dam built by these companies is 170 feet long on

the top, 19 feet thick and 31% feet high. . It is built of spruce log cribs filled with rock brush, the logs from 24 to.37 inches inches in diameter at the small end. The cross logs are from 18 to 23 inches, dovetailed into the others and bolted with 13 inch, bolts from 443 to5 feet long. As there ure but 42 square miles of water shed above the dams,and as the entire work is of the most substantial character, it is evident that the miners did their best, and more than was necessary to make their work stand any ‘strain to which it could possibly be subject. Slate creek having a grade of but four inches to the rod, the lower dam backs the debris one mile in length and from 200 to 1,000 feet wide. The-storage capacity of such a dam is immense, By continuing the height the amount of debris provided for is vastly inereased. But this dam is «8 mall: n+» compared with the one above, if we estimate by the quantity of debris to be impounded. ©The upper ‘dam is constucted in the most solid manner like the lower. Itvis located 6,000 feet above the other. Its height is 25 feet,length 150 feet and was built to back debris four miles and from 400 to 1,000 feet in width on the top. When in use these dams controlled all the debris dumped into them, Nota particle of debris is found below the dams. They were built in good faith, relying on the assertions of supposed reliable authority, that all mining 1s legitimate if only the debris is taken care of Judge Keyser was invited to visit these dams and see for himself how well they were made and how completely they did their work. The appeal of the miners was of no avail. An injunction was laid, the mines shut down, and the restraining dams left.as, monuments to judicial tyranny. Still the dismal song is sung at even tide by certain bucolic papers that ‘all mining is legitimate.” “Nobody will trouble the miner who takes care of his tailings.” In a recent lecture before the Royal Institution in England Dr. Klein asserted that scarlet fever generally, if not always, is due to milk used in diet. The terrible disease is, he said, caused by the presence and growth of a microscopical organism which flourishes in cows and which appears in their milk. If before using it the milk of an infected cow be heated to 185 degrees the germ of the disease is killed, but if the milk be drank fresh from the cow, scarlet fever is sure to follow. The presence of the germs in cowa can be detected, 5 aes Tue National Republican, in the course of a long e litorial reviewing the outlook forthe presidential contest of 1888 and the possible candidates of the two great parties, advocates thenomination of Senator Leland Stanford for President.

A meeting of the stockholders of the California Iron and Steel Company, a corporation which has extensive works in the lower part of Nevada county, was held in San Francisco for the purpose of considering some way of axtricating the company from its financial difficulties. For two years the enterprise is said to have been suffering from bad management and its stock has been selling ata low price. Early in the year 1884 it was paying dividends, and in the summer of the same year the stockholders were surprised when one month the dividend was omitted and an assessment levied. Inquiry developed the fact that under the management of Charles Chamberlin,. the Superintendent, the works had got heavily in debt. Chamberlin was removed, and a desperate effort was made to restore the company to a -sound basis_and re-establish-its_financial condition. Notwithstanding the efforts made, prosperity did not’come. The meeting was called by Charles Pace and Andrew Baird, both of whom are directors. Stockholders representing 12,408 shares of the stock were present. Mr. Baird made a lengthy report upon the affairs of the corporation, claiming that most of. its troubles arose from disputes in the Board of Directors. After a somewhat protracted discussion it was determined to appoint Messrs. Dornin, Murray, Nolan, laird and Pace as a committee to make further inquiriesabout the assets and liabilities, and report at another meeting to be held shortly, They were also instructed to ascertain legal meeting called at which officers and books would have to be in attendance., : A Multitude of Ailments. The ailments which afflict the kidneys and bladder are so numerous, that merely toname them would fill a space far outrunning the limits of this article. Suflice it to say, that they are both obstinate and dangerous. To their prevention Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is well adapted. ‘The stimulus which it lends to the action of the kidneys when they are lethargic, serve to,counteract atendency in them to lapse, first, into a state of pernicious inactivity, and afterwards into one of positive organic disease, which soon destroys their delicate integuments, poisons the blood and causes death. A double purpose is served by this depurent. It promotes activity of the kidneys, and expels impurities from the blood which have no natural channel of outlet, except those organs. Constipation, biliousness, fever and ague, rheumatism and dyspepsia, are also remedied by this medicine of thorough action and wide scope. ee \ Flowers, Flowers.
