The hundreds of police pres. ent conducted themselves with the utmost good nature and acted, so far as their duty was concerned. In a very efficient manner. Tha Shooter's bland arrangements for the comfort of the guests were exceedingly bad. No attempt.

BAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 26. One of the heaviest southwest storms that bee been experienced In many years struck this city this morning. The wind attained great velocity, blowing forty-five miles an hour In the city, while at Point Reyes It reached sixty miles at 4:20 o'clock. 8hlps dragged their anchors or broke their moorings at their docks, a Ashing boat was capslsed, the telephone and electrlo wires were down " awnlnga. shad treeo and tsncee were wrecneo. ana pedestrians were greatly in- convenience I Telegraph communication with the out- ImiA MMli ... -PI... ..11 ui otviiu waa vui uui um iuii ivin vi the storm waa felt on tha bav. which, was so rough that vessels were unable to leave port. North of the terries craft cf all eorte was tossed about Ilka ecgshella, the violent south wind stirred tha bay Into ft rolling tempestuous sea, against which anchors were almost futile. Swell after swell, each apparently heavier than the one preoeding, pounded the vessels from the southerly direction and sent them drifting in danger- proximity to one another, driving them close to tho piers and to the plana and kept the tow boats busily engaged in efforts to prevent disaster. Colli. laa Barely Averted. , The transport Solace, with nothing but 200 tons of coal to keep it down, broke from Its anchorage off Beale street and careened about the bay like a drunken sailor. It drifted broadalde-on until a collision with the government steamer Albatross seemed Imminent, but it veered off In the nick ol time. The wind and the swell caused It to drift helplessly, sending it finally toward the transport wharf at Foliom street. The officers of the service gathered on tho pier,' fully expecting Solace to crash Into the wharf. Fortunately, the 'direction of the swell carried the transport around until It lust cleared the buffer and swung out Into tho stream The transports Hancock and Rosecrans, which arrived from Manila laat night, re- malned in the atream. No effort waa made to land their pasSengere.

ONLY A SUGGESTION But It Has Proven ot Interest and Valuu to 'I bouaands. Common sense would suggest that if one wishes to become fleshy and plump It can only result from tho food we eat and digest, and that food should ba albuminous or flesh- forming food, like eggs, beefsteak and ce reals; In other words, the kind of food that nrakee flesh are the foods which form the greater part ot our daily bljli ot tare. But the trouble 1 that while we eat enough and generally too much, the atom ach, from abuse and overwork, does not properly digest and aislmllate It, which la the reaaon ao many people remain thin and under weight; the digestive organs do not completely dlgeat the fleah-tormlng beef steak and eggs and similar wbolesoms food. There are thousands of such who are really confirmed dyspeptics, although they may havs no particular pain or Incon venience 'rom their stomachs. If auoh persons would lay their preju dices aside and make a regular praotlca of taking, after each meal, one or two of Stuart'a Dyspepsia Tablets the food would be quickly and thoroughly digested, be cause thess tablets contain the natural pep tones and dlaatase which every weak stom ach lacks, and by supplying thla want the stomach la soon snabled to regain Its nat ural tone and vigor.
