ADORER

FOR HALF MILL! A California Wanderer Says That He Is Heir of Millionaire Russell. FIGHTS CASE IN BOSTON ALLEGED RELATIVES OF THE MAN HAVE DISOWNED HIM AND IGNORE HIS CLAIMS TO DISPUTED PROPERTY. Fresno, Cal., April 18. Henry Johnion, a day laborer, who is now in Boston seeking through his attorneys, George W. Cartwright of this city and William Odlin of Boston, to establish his identity as the long-lost brother of William C Russell and son of Daniel nussell of Melrose, Mass., in the fight to secure half of the million-dcilr.r estate left by his father, has lived In and around Fresno for twenty-three years. Johnson first came to California in 1887 and he arrived In Fresno in December ' of . that year. Wandering around from place to place, doing day labor, be has known no place he could call home. From the time he left his home In Melrose in Jane 1885, Johnson never wrote home and lost all track of his people. Although Ills father vdied three years ago he knew nothing of it. He was In Fresno at that time. Informed by Newspaper. The first intimation he had that his father was dead was In a short telegraphic dispatch in one of the local papers In which It , spoke briefly of the contest which was being - carried on In Boston against the estate by a North Dakota man. The Fresno man Immediately went to the local police and stated that he was Daniel Blake Russell. After examining him at some length, the pblics took him to the office of George W. Cartwright and there he made an affidavit which was forwarded to William C. Russell. .The elder Russell refused to receive the letter, however, and it was returned to this' city. Meanwhile friends of Henry here telegraphed and -wrote to Boston, and when word was received that the case was in. Its closing hours, Cartwright and his client started East at once. Henry was subjected to rigid investigation by Cartwright and the Boston attorneys. Through It all he passed without faltering and as his memorycleared he told more and more of his life while In Melrose, and also told of Incidents which it Is believed none but the real heir could know. Stood Rigid Examination. As far as Is known here, the case Is not a "plant." ' Russell came voluntarily to the police and Cartwright previously knew nothing whatever of the matter. It was only after subjecting him to a severe cross examination that Cartwright consented to take the case. , The local people made every effort to open communication with William C. Russell and his attorneys, but every attempt was ignored. For a long time but five men In Fresno knew of the rase. " These were G. W. Cartwright, D. A. Cashln, Ben Dreuth. a police detective; Chief of Police Shaw and a lc cal newspaper man. Cartwright and Cashin were law partners. Johnson, or Russell, has steadfastly maintained that he did not want any money, believing that his brother will treat him right, but he often stated that he had done his family a great wrong and wished to right it SMALL POX SCARE 81 3 persons on Board Steamer Manchuria, Submitted to Vaccination.

England In the Flying Game In Earnest An Appeal Has Been Issued for a Special Fund for the Encouragement of British Activity in Aeronautics. . t .

I Special Cable from the International Newt Hervlce.) . (By Herbert Temple.) London, April 18 A determined effort is to be made to remove the reproach that England has few flying men. ' ; . Lord Mantagu of Beaulieu, chairman of the aviation committee of the Royal Aero club meeting to be held at Bournemouth next July, has issued an appeal for a special fund for the encouragement of British competitors. "Here is the position," he said to me yesterday. "At Bournemouth, $40,000 will be offered In prizes for international flying competitions. . Unfortunately, it is certain that foreign competitors will sweep the board bo there is little inducement to the British inventor and flyer to compete. He is generally a man with little money, who can not afford to compete if he stands no chance of making good his expenses. i "What I want to see, therefore, is a prize fund for British Aviators., I propose that this be devoted to a substantial prize1 for the British competitor flying in a foreign machine, and a still larger prize for the competitor using an all British machine. "Ten years ago I was laughed at for my enthusiasm over motor cars; today we lead the world. So I hope we may yet do the same In flying machines. One calm day in May a steamer with 22 miles: of telephone cable on board, will start from Dover and will proceed very slowly acroBS the Channel to Cape Gris Nes. Thus will be .laid a new link between England and France, which will mark the beginning of an important development in the crossChannel telephone service. One of the principal officials at the general postoff Ice says that two new cables .each containing four wires, will be laid by the British government and the other by the French government. - "The object of the new link," he said, "is to make conversations possible between towns In the Midlands and , in the North and Paris and the towns In the north of France, and also to relieve the present congestion on the LondonParis line. Theoretically, Birmingham, Liverpool, Manchester, Hull and other towns are on the phone to the French towns, but when it comes to practice we find it is very difficult to be heard at all. "Cardiff hae the greatest success with Paris calls, and a great deal of business is transacted over , the phone by South "Wales coal exporters." It is hoped this year to establish audible communication with towns as far north as York, and probably, as the service improves, with New Castle and Glasgow. Miss Ellen Terry's tour in America is not to be of the farewell order, the actress declared, yesterday. ,1 am simply going to visit those places I have been before, and the people know me well, and deliver little informal lectures discourses I call them on Shakespeare," she told me. "The tour will not start until next October, and the arrangements have not yet . been completed. . All I can tell you Is that I shall discourse on Shakespeare plays and Shakespeare acting generally, and shall, of course, recite extracts from those Shakespeare plays in which I haVe acted. There will be no costumes or scenery, or lantern slides, or anything of that sort only myself In plain everyday clothes, to talk about Shakespeare for an -hour and a quarter." , "Quite a pleasant little romance comes from Lewlsham and one which shows that even the stone walls of the workhouse "is not a prison make," when love wants to find a way beyond the barriers. - One of the inmates of the Lewlsham Workhouse is an old woman named Elizabeth Forest, and it has Just come to the knowledge of the guardians that she is about to make a- second matrimonial venture with an old sweetheart In the "dear dead days ot long ago." their ways parted, and each took another partner. Death robbed the man of his wife and the woman of her husband. . After her ? husband's death, some years ago, Mrs. Forest became an Inmate of Lewlsham Workhouse. By the marriage she bad two children, a boy and a girl, and they have both proved a credit to her. , The boy is in

Liberty' at Gennett,

the army, and he has always, so far aa his pay has allowed him, contributed towards his mother's maintenance. The girl is in service, and she, too, has helped, and on her day out has always visited her mother. If their "days out coincided, mother and daughter spent it together. The only thing that interfered with this arrangement was Mrs. Forest's accidental meeting with her old admirer, for then her day out was spent in his company. They are to be married at Christ Church, Forest-hill, where the elderly bridegroom lives. He is a plasterer by trade, and , works at Southend, and it is there they Intend to start housekeeping together. Mrs. Forest has received the congratulations of the officers of the workhouse and the women inmates. She is delighted with the prospect of again having a home of her own, and declares that she feels "years youngef since1 this little "affair of the heart" was settled. She is a well preserved, goodlooking woman a little over 00. and with apparently many years of life before her. - Everything, except the filling of a number of parts is now ready for the starting of the rehearsals of the great army Pageant which will succeed the Church Pageant in the grounds of the Bishop of London's Palace this year, and which will last from June 2 to July 2nd. The pageant, according to the authorized details, which have just been issued, will be divided into three parts. The first will be a historical prelude showing the evolution of the weapons of ancient inhabitants of these islands, from pre-palaeolithic ages to the Roman invasion. The second will consist of ten historic episodes from 10 A. D. to 1645 showing the effect of various tactics and weapons in celebrated fights. The third will tell "Stories of the Regiments in Famous- Fights,'"and will present the most charished traditions of our most famous regiments. A picture of the "tooth, and nail" era, when the only weapons were hands, feet, teeth, v claws, heads (butting), stones, bones (for thumping and throwing), hurling sticks and wooden or bone clubs, will be the opening of the prelude. This scene will take the spectator back very near the dim times of our : monkey-ancestry. The next step, nearer to the age of cordite and Maxim- guns will illustrate the period of the axe, the hammer, the FIGHTS HER SAVERS San Antonio, Texas, April 18.

javelin and the bow as articles of warfare. The use of shot is next shown by a representation of the battle of Dupplin Mulr In Scotland In 1322 and again in the next scene, which is a reproduction of the Battle of Crecy, where the value of shot against attacking cavalry was shown. This will be a great scene, the battle being reproduced with the greatest historical accuracy. The heavy French cavalry will be shown through their allies, the Genoese cross-bowmen, only . to be hopelessly routed before they reached the English lines. The battle of Aeincourt will show the value of the use of lime in attack against column. ! The episode of Henry V kniehtine David Gram and the four other Welshmen, who saved him when he was struck down, will be a feature of this tableau. Firearms make their first appear ance in the next act. which is nut on in two scenes. The first will show Queen Elizabeth reviewing the Lq aon volunteers or ureenwicn, and being petitioned by the Lord Mayor to send the whole force to aid the Dutch against the Spaniards; and the second will show how London arauebusiers under iThomas Morgan, drove off the Spaniards in front of the defenses of Flushing. The last scene In this sec tion will present the battle of Naseby and the charge of Cromwell and his ironsides. The chronology will be carried on in the next part, which will open with a representation of the ereat Dart the British infantry played in the battle of Minden. The last appearance of an English king in battle will be presented next, with George II, at the battle of Dettingen. f A dramatic incident in tms will be the fight for, and the loss and recovery of, the standard of the $ra Hussars, by Trooner Brown. The tragic battle of Corunna and the death of Sir John Moore will come next in five scenes, which include vivid representation of a French officer interrupting a Spanish dance, and being stabbed and robbed of his dispatches, and of the individual deeds of two privates of the 43rd regiment. In the battle of Barossa, which is the next presentation, the Royal Irish Fusiliers take a prominent part. The last sceneg wiH be the storming of Badajoz, which secured Wellington the Portuguest frontier and enabled him to start on his march to Madrid. have her pains alleviated or her life saved. . ; The woman took the poison at eight o'clock in the evening and shortly afterwards her groans attracted the attention of her family. Medical aid was summoned immediately and there Is no doubt that she would have been saved had it been possible to administer an antidote. But neither entreaty nor force made this possible. Though her agonies were horrible to behold, the woman did not utter a complaint during the long hours that elapsed before her end came at five o'clock next morning. . Domestic trouble with her husband, whom she - had married but a few weeks ago, are said to have been the cause of the tragedy. , Virus and Venom. The difference between venom and a virus is very marked. Both are poisons and both of organic origin, but a venom fa produced In secreting organs, commonly called poison elands, and is introduced into the system by means especially adapted for the purpose, such as stings- or fangs. On the other hand, a .virus is the result of disease or putrefaction and generally possesses the property of exciting in the system into which it is introduced the disease which produced the virus. A. virus commonly ; produces little if any local disturbance. A venom generally causes great pain, often severe inflammation and swelling. . Venom has marked local effect. Tiros causes a general disturbance of the system. ' Pleasure of Wisdom. Tour boy likes to go to school better than he used to, said the relative. Yes; answered Mr. Bligglna.

BELIEVES CHURCH

I Charles Remy Makers Splendid Address at the Laymen's Meeting Sunday. PROVES HIS STATEMENTS SAYS CHRISTIANITY HAS SPREAD MORE SINCE PILGRIMS LANDED THAN ALL YEARS PRECEDING EVENT. Choosing as his theme, "The Other Fellows Rights," Charles Remy, of Indianapolis, formerly clerk of the Indiana supreme court,' delivered a very interesting lecture at the Reid Memorial church yesterday afternoon in wfiich he took occasion to' state that the twentieth century ' would be the greatest in the history of the devel opment of mankind. The assemblage at the church yesterday was ; in the nature of an echo meeting of the Lay men's convention held recently at In dianapolis. It was fairly well attended. Short talks were also made by several of the laymen present In his address, Mr. Remy stated that while ft was alleged that Christianity was on the decline and was losing power, but that it had in reality advanced more since the. Pilgrims landed at Plymouth than in all the years preceeding that event. He declared that in the past fifty years its advancement and strength had - been all the more pronounced. Gives His Proofs. The speaker then furnished proofs to verify his allegation that progress had been made. He stated that slavery, had been abolished and that the time when the churches approved 1 ot the holding of slaves had long since passed. He pointed out the fact that church members of today ; repulsed any attempt to preach on Infidelity while years ago Robert Ingersoll ' delivered addresses to packed, bouses on this subject. Mr. Remy reviewed the history of the missionary society and the work that had been accomplished along that line. explained how ten years . ago, this branch of the church work was conducted almost altogether by the women, while now the men of the church, were just as much interested in the matter. He declared that the " men all over the country are rapidly becoming awakened to the importance attached to missionary work and were lending their assistance1 in every way possible. The speaker cited Indianapolis as . a city where the men . were pledging : their support to the movement. He stated that at one session of the laymen's convention at Indianapolis ' recently, 2.000 men attended while at another 3,500 men were present. ' In closing Mr. Remy expressed bis appreciation of the way the "movement was spreading in this city and the interest that was being manifested by local laymen in , the matter. At Local Theaters Monte Carlo Girls. When the Monte Carlo Girls appear at the New Phillips on Tuesday night They will - be ( a welcome change to the stereotype style of show that has been appearing here of late, and the boys will welcome them like an early morning breeze. : The boys have long been asking the management when 'The Real. Burlesque" was coming to our city, so the manage ment takes great pleasure in announcing the return of these popular burlesquers. Many new novelties have been added' for this , season's engagement, including the newest and best of New York sang hits, and many dashing and ' spley dancing numbers. Two new burlettas have been written to fit our old time favorite. Lew Golden. About him little need be said, as he is so well known that his name is sufficient to let the boys know that there will be , lots doing in the fun line. Another old friend that will help make things move is Mile De Rau in a sensational dancing novelty. Miss Patsy. One of the most popular successes of the present season is the big Savage production of Miss Patsy, in which Miss Gertrude Quinlan is now starring WHAT CLEAN BLOOD MEANS They used to accuse Dr. A.' B. Simpson, one of the famous physicians of Indiana, of having a cure-all because his great reputation was established largely on one prescription, the most effective - alterative or blood-purifier known. "No," he would remark, "it will not core : consumption, nor typhoid, nor any one of a hundred common diseases. It simply purifies the - blood, but it does that .very thoroughly.": What are the symptoms of poisoned, impure blood? They range all the way from the dreadful syphilis to a muddy complexion. They include inflammatory rheumatism, catarrh, scrofula, eczema, erysipelas, pimples, boils, running sores, erysipelas, pimples, boils, and a number of similar afflictions. All . these yielded readily to Dr. Simpson's - treatment And during the forty years this preparation has been on the market as Dr. A. B. Simpson's Vegetable Compound It has never failed in a single case. The, very worst cases of syphillis have been cured as well as all . the -other blood diseases, named above and the same compound has always given clear, clean complexions to those, otherwise in good health. It Ik sold at S1.00 a bottle at all drag stores.
