CANNONADE OF SIEGE GUNS.
MUKDENV Sunday, Nov.. 13.^— An
unbroken cannonade of siege guns,
throwing fifty or sixty shells hourly
against the Japanese position in the
region of Shakhe station, was .begun
early this morning and ended only at
nightfall, when more than 600 big con
tact shells had been thrown into the
Japanese army's strongest position on
the plain for the purpose of demoraliz
ing the work of fortification concen-'
trated at that point for the past four
weeks. To-day's bombardment was
the most serious attempt yet made by
the Russians' large guns and it was
due to the apparent determination of
the Japanese to make Shakhe station

Into the ground, night and day, that

A friend of Dent saw the original
translation and sent the gist of it to
him in a letter received to-day. From
the letter there can be little doubt that
the men of the Baltic fleet were drunk
and scarcely knew what they were
doing. The letter reads as follows:
"We knew we were out of our course
and were afraid we would run aground
somewhere. Of the crews, officers and
men, many, I regret to say, were in
toxicated. An alarm was given that
the admiral's flagship had grounded
and in the confusion that followed thi«
report three vessels of the rear squad
ron collided. While all was confusion
we came across what looked like a
flotilla of torpedo-boats and we opened
flre. Later in the night there was an
exchange of shots between our vessel
and another, and it was only when we
recognized from a small shell that
came aboard, but did not explode, that
the ammunition was Russian, that we
discovered that we had been firing upon
one another. "We had several men,
wounded." ,

Frequent fights between the opposing

parties little respite.
Large numbers of Russian officers
are arriving at the front to replace

day the enormous task involved in
driving back the Japanese. Great
hopes, however, are placed In the

New Enterprise In Its Management
Will Combine Philanthropy
and Business.
NEW TORK, Nov. 14. — A hotel for
working girls and working 1 women will
soon be built in this city if the plans
now under consideration are carried
out. Philanthropy and business will
be combined in the running of the
hotel. Plans have been submitted by
an architect, involving the expenditure
of $300,000, but several well-known
men interested In the project think
that there will be no difficulty In rais
ing whatever money is necessary, be
cause assistance has been offered by
men prominent in the financial world.
The hotel probably will be In the
neighborhood of. the large department
stores on the "West Side, where many
girls and women are employed. Their
board at the hotel will be about 53 or
$4 a week. Nothing will be said to
the guests about religion or their
family affairs.
If the girls are out of employment
at any time the management will try
to tide them over until they get work.

NEW YORK, Nov. 14. — According
to stories printed to-day Rev. Dr.
William R. Rainsford, rector of St.
George's Episcopal Church and one of
the best known clergymen in this city,
was threatened by a woman in his
church on Sunday. Published ac
counts say that the woman rushed
Into the rector's study armed with a
revolver and after some conversation
threatened to kill him.
'' Dr. Rainsford's secretary informed
the preBs to-night - that on Sunday
morning after the 11 o'clock service
several people went forward to the
pulpit to greet the rector. Among
them was a woman. He says' there
was conversation, that the woman
asked several questions, among them
one as to what had been done with
her money, which led Dr. Rainsford
to believe that she was irresponsible
and he referred her to the sexton. The
secretary also states no threats were
made and no weapons exhibited.

LONDON, Nov. 14. — Lord Selborne.
First 1L<ord of the Admiralty, speaking
at- Bristol to-night and referring to
Russia's having granted Great Brit

experienced was an occasion for the j
country to take stock of Its defensive i
organization, and, in dealing with j
this question, it was impossible to ig
nore the rapid march of the Russian
empire toward the Indian frontier.
It was useless. Lord Selborne said,

its liabilities, to mince matters. In
stead of. a vast tract of impassable^
country separating. the .two empires,;
Russia- trad* two- railways terminating \
at the Afghanistan frontier, only a|

He spent a great deal of his time
roaming around his cell, clad only in
his underclothes. Outside of his guard
ian, his attorneys and one or two news
paper men he had no callers to-day.
Not one of his relatives went near him,
and his old-time friend Adrian Wills,
who came to his rescue the night *of
the fire, was conspicuous by his ab
sence. Weber waxed angry once to
day. This was after he had read that
he was a lover of trashy literature and
a dime-novel fiend. He emphatically
denied the truth of these statements,
saying:
Jj "Will you please say for me in con
tradiction of the reports that have ap
peared in the papers that I have been
reading . sensational dime novels that
such is not the case. I have not been
reading trash of that sort. I have con
fined my reading entirely to biography
and to standard history for the last
two years. Reports that I . have . de
voted my time to reading trashy stuff
of the dime novel sort are detrimental
to" me and. to my case."
By the death of his four relatives
Adolph must naturally inherit the en
tire amount of his father's estate. . This
is valued # by conservative people here
to be nearly $100,000. This amount is
all well' invested in bonds and first
mortgages, all paying good rates of. in
terest. Outside of Adolph the imme
diate heirs of the estate are the brother
and sisters of Mrs. ,Weber. (
. Julius Weber himself had no kin in
this country. '. His bachelor brother who
lived in this State died some years ago.
It is reported that he has both brothers
and sisters In Germany, but they have
not been heard from since his death.
The Interview with ' Adrian Wills, a
former chum of young Weber, who
sheltered the accused youth on the
night of the tragedy, which was pub
lished In The Call, aroused young
Weber to the only display of emotion
he has made since his arrest. After
.reading it he gave The Call corres
pondent the following signed state
ment: .......
Tracy, the famous outlaw of Oregon
and Washington, it is said here, was
greatly admired by Adolph Weber. The
young man held up Tracy as an ex
ample. That young Adolph is an ex
traordinary character and that he is
what almost might be termed a psy
chological freak Is no longer a question
in the minds of those who have seen
him and have conversed with him. He
is as smart as a whip. His brain is
remarkably clear. Not one single ex
pression of sorrow over the loss of his
family has passed from his lips. He
has not uttered one single expression
of any kind that' would indicate he
had. the* le,ast regret, for. those who
were r so foullv and. brutally murdered.
So .far as- the -casual -observer can
ascertain, he -is utterly indifferent to
their passing a way. \ He has frequently
asked,. who will. get the- property left
by his father and if it would come di
rect to him; •
When the inquest is resumed on
Wednesday it is. expected that impor
tant evidence will be introduced. In
the absence of Sheriff Kenna, who is
now in San Francisco, Under Sheriff
William I. May is working night and
day to ferret out the perpetrator or
perpetrators of the horrible crime.
Some very important evidence has been
dug up to-day.
This afternoon Edgar McFayden, as
sistant cashier of the Placer County
Bank, is reported to have ordered steps
to be taken to prefer a charge against
young Weber of robbing the bank, on
June 26. It is reported that the cos
tume worn by the robber is now in the
possesion of the Sheriff here and that
he has ascertained where the garments
came from and that he only needs a
small link to complete the chain of
evidence. .{">"¦
Adolph Weber was as calm as usual
in his cell to-day. He maintained the
same coolness that .has marked his
bearing since the murder of his fam
ily. His cell is a large one. When he
was first put into it he rebelled against
its lack of conveniences. He said to
the jailer that he had been convicted
of no crime and that he should not be
thrown into a cell and treated as a
common prisoner. He asked for a fresh
and clean outfit for his bed and this
was given him. He was not satisfied
with the meals furnished to him, stat
ing that he was a sufferer from in
digestion and was obliged to live on a
prescribed diet and had the authorities
send out for some shredded wheat and
other food. He appeared to »njoy them
with a great relish.
ROAMS ABOUT CELJj.
AUBURN, Nov. 14.— That Mrs. Julius
Weber feared that her son Adolph
would commit some awful deed is a
fact that became known to-dav. The
information came from Mrs. Snowden,
sister of the unfortunate woman who
with her husband, daughter and son is
supposed to have met death at the
hands of her first born.
"I now remember," said Mrs. Snow
den, "that Mrs. Weber many times
said she was afraid of Adolph; that
she was afraid he would do some awful
deed; that he alwavs had such a pe
culiar disposition and that he had al
ways read peculiar books tttkt had had
a queer effect on his mind."
Mrs. Snowden is almost in a state of
nervous prostration. The awful or
deal that she has undergone since the
night of the tragedy has been telling'
heavily upon her. Her home Is only a
stone's throw from the scene of the
awful tragedy and the • shrieks and
cries for help that issued from her
sister's home on " the night of the
tragedy are still ringing in her ears.
To-day she is almost beside herself
with grief. She says she can hardly
contain herself and that the terrible
scenes of . last Thursday night, when
fche stood on the porch and saw the
bodies of her sister, her niece Bertha
and her little nephew Earl brought out
of the flaming building and laid at her
feet are always before her eyes.

Th galleries of the group of forts on
the northern Dart of Keekwan Moun
tain were captured after desperate un
derground fighting. The Russians still
hold parts of the moat defended by the
galleries on North Keekwan Mountain.
The Japanese are now engaged in sap
ping operations for the purpose of dis
lodging the Russians, the result of
which It is believed will make the cap
ture of the moat an easy task.
The capture of»thls fort would give
the Japanese the key to the eastern
fortified range, as artillery mounted
there would dominate the forts in
front of the ridge and enable the Jap
anese to place infantry In a position
to sweep the ridge.
During the general attack on the
eastern fortified ridges on . October 30
the Japanese gained the moats of the
principal forts attacked by them. These
meats were found to be wider, deeper
and stronger than had been expected,
and were defended by caponiere gal
ltTies.
The powerful east Keekwan fort
was gained, but the Russians were re
inforced and drove the Japanese down
to the foot of the hill. The Japanese
are now sapping toward the crest ol
the hill.

to an early resumption of the mili

Marshal Oyama has received heavy

tle for the possession of Mukden. The
Japanese are showing particular ac
tivity on their right flank, as if they
were contemplating a turning move
ment from that direction. General
Kuropatkin has fortified his positicms
along: the Shakhe River and, as he
seemingly is prepared to accept a bat

tions to block a flanking operation.

itary authorities here his left flank
is secure.

"The proof of the pudding is in the

Genuine merit is finding its reward
in the hearty indorsement of local

that Doan's Kidney Pills can be de-

gone out of my way to recommend
the preparation to others suffering
from kidney complaint. Before I
took a course of the treatment I had
tried more than one standard rem-
edy, but the results as far as stop-
ping the trouble were just as re-
motely in the distance as when I first
noticed that my kidneys were out of
order. A sure indication that in some
way the action of my kidneys was up-

kidney secretions added to the back-

cold. For the last six months there
has not been an indication of either

AND -OTHERS.
The better class of druggists, everywhere, are m'en of scientific attainments and high integrity,
who devot.j iheir lives to the welfare of their fellow men in supplying the best of remedies and
purest medicinal agents of known value, in accordance with physicians* prescriptions and
scientific formula. Druggists of the better class manufacture many, excellent remedies, but
always under original or officinalnames and they never sell false brands, or imitation medicines.
Thej are the men to deal with when in need of anything in their line, which usually includes
all standard remedies and corresponding adjuncts of a first-class pharmacy and the nnest and
best of toilet articles and preparations and many useful accessories and remedial appliances.
The earning of a fair living, with the satisfaction which arises from a knowledge of the benefits
conferred upon their patrons and assistance to the medical profession, is usually their greatest
reward for long years of study and many hours of daily toil. They all know that »yrnp of
Figs is an excellent laxative remedy and that it gives universal satisfaction, and therefore they
are selling many millions of bottles annually to the well informed purchasers of the choicest
remedies, and they always take pleasure in handing out the genuine article bearing the full
name of the Company— California Fig Syrup Co. — printed on the front of every package.
They know that in cases of colds and headaches attended by biliousness and constipation and
of weakness or torpidity of the liver and bowels, arising from irregular habits, indigestion, or
over-eating, that there is no other remedy so pleasant, prompt and beneficial in its effects as
Syrup of Figs, and they are glad to sell it because it gives universal satisfaction, v
Owing to the excellence of Syrup of Figs, the universal satisfaction which it gives and the
immense demand for it, imitations have been made, .tried and condemned, but there are
individual druggists to.be found, here and there, who do not maintain the dignitv and principles
of the profession and whose greed gets the better of their judgment, and who do not hesitate
to recommend and try to sell the imitations in order to make a larger profit. Such preparations
Borne times have the name — " Syrup of Figs "—or "Fig Syrup" and of some piratical concern,
or fictitious fig syrup company, printed on. the package, but they never have the full name of
the Company— California Fig Syrup Co.— printed on the front of the package. The imitations
should be rejected because they are injurious to the system. In order to sell the imitations
they find it necessary to resort to misrepresentation or deception, and whenever a dealer passes
off on a customer a preparation under the name of "Syrup of Figs v or "Fig Syrup," which
does not bear the full name of the California Fig Syrup Co. printed on the front of the package,
he is attempting to deceive and mislead the patron who has been so unfortunate as to enter his
establishment, whether it be large or small, for if the dealer resorts to misrepresentation and
and deception in one case he will do so with other medicinal agents, and in the filling of
physicians' prescriptions, and should be avoided by every one who values health and happiness.
Knowing that the great majority of druggists are reliable, we supply the immense demand
for our excellent remedy entirely through the druggists, of whom it may be purchased every-
where, in original packages onlv, at the regular price of fifty cents per bottle, but as exceptions
exist it is necessary to inform tne public of the facts, in order that all may decline or return
any imitation .which may be sold to them. If it does not bear the full name of the Company-
California Fi| Syrup Co.— printed on the front of every package, do not hesitate to return the
article and to demand the return of your money, and in future go to one of the better class of
druggists who will sell you what you wish and the best of everything in his line at reasonable prices.
