Spring
Fever
Bpring fever is considered a
joke—'ffhen some one else
has it—but the condition is in
reality no joke. Sprng fever
is one of those terms applied
to that general relaxed con-
tlj'jQH Oj til? which is
so common at this season, It
indicates, as a rule, a loss of
vitality and a disorded condi
tion of the blood. An effec
tive remedy should be prompt
ly used, because this condi
tion readily becomes chronic.
Our Malto
Iron Tonic
Is just the remedy needed.
It aids digestion, tones up the
nervous system, purifies the
blood and increases vitality
We are so sure that it will
give satisfaction in all cases
that we sell it under a posi
tive guarantee—J¥>ur money
back if it fails. : : : : :

Tie San Francisco Earthquake.
Life motion pictures of scenes in
San Francisco during and for a
period of two days after the terrible
earthquake and Are will be shown •’t
the Star Theatre on Thursday. Fri
day and Saturday nights, less than
two months after the great disaster.
These pictures are the only viti-
graph views taken in San Francisco
during the fire. Uilos Bros., the
largest manufactures oi option ma
chines in the west, loS* their g 1 ’®^
San Francisco plant in the fire but
managed to save a photographing
ipachine and eight thousand °*
films, with which the pictures to be
seen here were taken. A member
of the firm stated that the snim of
$350 was paid for an automobile for
one day to take the pictures.
First is shown a busy day on
Market street, the main thoioughfare
before the earthquake, from the up
per end to the mammoth ferry build
ing. Each building will be carefully
poipted out and named as it appears
on the canvass. Then scenes of the
fire, the first having been taken
during the early morniag, the red
glare of the flames making the pic
ture vivid. Then acre after acre of
ruins in everv bart 9 ne c £
shown, and the audience ^ again
taken down Market street, notf Tioiu
ing more than a mass of twisted iron
and crumbling walls.
There will be a special children^
matinee given Friday afternoon,
f
Struck With a Hoe. *
A disturbance attracting a good deal
of attention occurred on the works
around the new depot about 2 o’clock
Friday afternoon. Two of the work
men, Zeb Wailaoe and Ed Miller, one
a resident of this city and the other
hailing from Charlotte, engaged in a
difficulty that landed both before the
mayor yesterday morning.
Several rocks and a hoe were the
weapons used in the scrap, the rocks
p-oing wild, but the hoe proving dis
astrous to Wallace. The row seems
to have started by Miller attempting
to.hurry Wallace in his work of un
loading concrete. Wallace resented
this familiarity with profane Ian
guage and the scrap ensued. Wallace
threw’ rocks at Miller and was neu-
dered unconscions in return by a
blow from a hoe with which Miller
was mixing mortar. Both appeared
in mayor’s court yesterday morning
and with the help of about a dozen
witnesses w r ere fined five dollars or
ten days each. Both paid and were
released.
