RUEF IS LOSING HIS MIND Correspondent Visits Little Boss In Prison—Notes from the Bay (Correspondence of the Gazette) SAN FRANCISCO, June 26.—There is no more Abe Ruef. The master mind of the once famous "Little Boss" at whose nod-of-a-head San Francisco smiled or frowned, has been broken. The first one hundred and ten days service of his 14 year sentence at San Quentin penitentiary, has taken the luster from his eye, the reparte from his words and made his once strong personality miserable and weak. He is like the thousands of others of his associates at the prison. His will is broken, his face a pinkish hue, which they call the prison pallor and his eyes shift nervously and his fingers twitch. His once marvelous memory, which aided him in his mastry of men is gone and only when his mind has been refreshed can he recall events and persons he knew so well but a few months ago. In this condition Julius W. Raphael found the erstwhile dictator on a visit to the prison today. Ruef could not remember the Kohl family, Charles Frederick, the head of which was shot last week, although he knew all of them well in other days. When Raphael told him of the shooting and reminded Ruef of the prominence of the family, all the interest he displayed was an ejaculation "That is too bad." “What is the cause of such a change?” asked Raphael, questioning the guard. The finger of the man who now bosses Ruef pointed to the end of the pavement where he was sitting on it. he will not "throw the town wide-open" but will enforce the laws. That politics is at the bottom of the fight is the consensus of opinion everywhere and its effect is differently predicted. James Rolph, civic organization, regular republican and business man's candidate for mayor, has taken no part in the fight but his friends and adherents have been the most active of the Seymour supporters. In many places about town, odds of 10 to 6 are posted that Rolph will sweep the primaries and 10 to 7 that he will be elected. In one place a book is being laid at even money that Rolph will be next mayor by the greatest majority in the history of the city. Who is furnishing the cash for the republican end, is not known. Fearing if she marries Bernard J. Mulready, a Morse patrolman, she might shortly become a widow through theire of John Collins who has followed her from Denver and that if she marries Collins her social status might undergo the same change through the jealousy of Mulready, Mary Burns, comely at 19 years, has repudiated a double engagement and resolved to await the coming of a "dark horse" to take her in marriage. She told her story to Captain of Detectives Tom Ryan at Central police station today about the same time a telegram arrived from her father at Denver, asking the police to arrest Collins and allow Mulready to marry his daughter. The girl arrived here yesterday to marry the patrolman. Three hours later Collins and Miss Burns' aunt, Mrs. Mary Jensen, arrived from Denver to prevent the ceremony. When Mary went to the depot to get her trunk she found Collins sitting on it. les Frederick, the head of which was shot last week, although he knew all of them well in other days. When Raphael told him of the shooting and reminded Ruef of the prominence of the family, all the interest he displayed was an ejaculation "That is too bad." "What is the cause of such a change?" asked Raphael, questioning the guard. The finger of the man who now bosses Ruef pointed to the end of the corridor where, on an elevated platform, stood another guard, rifle in hand. "That soon takes the 'starch' out of them," said the guard. "They fear that the slightest mismove will spell death to them. They are not allowed to talk, only during certain hours in their cell. The time of the active mind is spent in brooding when not otherwise employed. They all get that way, and Ruef is no exception. "They think of nothing but their own trouble and even frequently forget time itself. "Ruef is a good prisoner, but incarceration is proving to him what it has to hundreds of others—it changes them all." That every pier along San Francisco's water front, from the ferry building north, is undermined or being rapidly placed in this condition by submarine pests, is the startling information conveyed to the Board of Harbor Commissioners by Commissioner Geo. H. Hill. The commissioner had just concluded an investigation of the front piers and finds, he says, that the supposed permanent concrete work was done in such a manner that it will take several millions of dollars to repair it. The concrete piers were made by sinking three piles and surrounding them with cement, making what was supposed to be a compact mass of solid support, four feet in diameter. It has been found that the concrete was not sunk far enough to protect the bottom of the piles which, in hundreds of places have been eaten off and the docks are in danger of collapse. The ferry building itself, it is said, is safe but an examination is being made of the slips used by the vessels in trans-bay traffic. Unable to longer stand the pressure of the forces of Mayor P. H. McCarthy, Chief of Police John F. Seymour today tendered his resignation to the unsympathetic board of police commissioners which for thirty days has been trying to oust him from office. Detectives Tom Ryan at Central police station today about the same time a telegram arrived from her father at Denver, asking the police to arrest Collins and allow Mulready to marry his daughter. The girl arrived here yesterday to marry the patrolman. Three hours later Collins and Miss Burns' aunt, Mrs. Mary Jensen, arrived from Denver to prevent the ceremony. When Mary went to the depot to get her trunk she found Collins sitting on it. Collins and the aunt took Mary back to her lodgings from where she managed to dispatch, in secret, a note to Mulready. Promptly the special policeman reported the affair to the police and charging that his fiance was being deprived of her liberty by Collins. With the announcement of the girl that she cared so much for each of her admirers that she would not be the cause of the assassination of either and would look for someone else, the police decided it not a case for their interference. Not until today did it become generally known that when Robert Turner died at the San Mateo poor farm in May, 1907, he was a bigamist and left a widow, worth in excess of $1,000,000 residing in England. In a little shack across the county line from San Francisco lives his supposed widow and six minor children in poor circumstances. A few hours before Turner died he confided to John Ford, superintendent at the farm, that he had a wife, Mrs. Mary C. Turner, residing at Catstone House, Catstone Road, Bournemouth, England, and requested Ford write to her of his death. While the body of Turner was being consigned to the Potter's field, a letter from Ford was speeding on its way to England. But no reply came in all the four years, until today. The morning mail brought to Ford a lee from England, signed by Mrs. Mary C. Turner. It acknowledges receipt of the long-ago notice of Turner's death and explains she refrained from replying, thinking it might be a hoax. The letter says Turner left England a wealthy man and it is inconceivable to Mrs. Turner how he came to die in the poor house. She knows nothing of wife No. 2 or their circumstances. Turner came to San Mateo 14 years ago with plenty of money. He married and after a few months divorced his wife.

Seymour today tendered his resignation to the unsympathetic board of police commissioners which for thirty days has been trying to oust him from office. In his public letter he says he does not wish to longer be a party to a demoralization of the department by continuing what he claims has been his fight for justice and the good of the city, in the courts. Immediately upon receipt of the resignation, the commissioners met and for the third time appointed and swore in David Augustin White, out-sideman for the San Francisco gas and electric company, who for ten days past has been acting chief while Seymour held the official title of chief. With two department heads and all of the captains in the department reporting to White, under order of the commissioners, Seymour says he can find no excuse for longer occupying the empty title, conferred by the various writs and orders made by Judge Seawell out of the superior court. For thirty days San Francisco's police fight has been the ludicrous thing of the state. Seymour had the backing of the chamber of commerce and every civic organization, because of his "closed town" policy. It has been used by the Seymour forces that McCarthy sought to add the Redlight district vote to his own machine in the approaching municipal election and for that reason sought to rid himself of his reform chief and install one embued with the administration spirit. Be this as it may White announces Turner's death and explains she refrained from replying, thinking it might be a hoax. The letter says Turner left England a wealthy man and it is inconceivable to Mrs. Turner how he came to die in the poor house. She knows nothing of wife No. 2 or their circumstances. Turner came to San Mateo 14 years ago with plenty of money. He married and after a few months divorced his wife. In the financial settlement his fortune was impaired. He married again and raised a family. His money he invested but, in every instance, he lost until, when sickness overcome him, he was penniless. BILLIONS OF FISH Uncle Sam Lends Hand in Conservation of Food Uncle Sam has shown himself a very generous "father" to his children, and has taken a live and intelligent interest in their welfare. In the care and preservation of the forests in aids to irrigation and in watching and helping agriculture the government has been of invaluable use to the people, and in the one matter of fish propagation has helped wonderfully in the matter of food supply. A recent writer, exploiting the government figures, puts it this way in part: Meat is one of the main factors in the high cost of living. Excepting eggs, the most general substitute for meat is fish. In inland waters the best fish for food are also those which afford most sport to the angler. Therefore, the demand for food and fun would result in the extermination of the fish in our lakes and ponds, rivers and streams, unless art aided nature in the propagation. Nearly every state with waters in which fish will thrive has its own commission to care for them, but the federal government does more to compare with the plants in the inkbox whitefish eggs fry. In the green small ones all over there were deposited 000 eggs of the lake fry and 4,000,000 fingerlings. Next in popular bass. Of the large 50,000 fry and 666,000 distributed in lots ran 3000.

Last year he distributed in fresh and salt waters more than 3,230,000,000 fish and eggs. More than 95 per cent of them were of important commercial species, notably salmon, shad, whitefish, perch, lake trout, cod, pollock, flat-fish and lobsters. Nevertheless the cultivation of the fish of the interior waters, generally classed as game fish, is considered very important by the federal bureau of fisheries. The kinds most extensively cultivated for stocking streams, small lakes, fishing preserves and private ponds are the land-locked salmon, trout, bass, grayling, crapple, bream, or sunfish, and catfish. The species propagated in largest number last year was the flatfish, of which nearly 931,000,000 fry were placed in bays and coastal streams of Maine and Massachusetts. In these same waters were planted over 100,-000,000 lobsters, 220,000,000 codfish, 38,000,000 pollock and nearly 1,000,000 each of mackerel and sea bass. Along the Pacific Coast, from California to Alaska, were distributed various species of salmon, aggregating over 175,000,000 eggs, fry, fingerlings, yearlings and adults. The fish of the greatest commercial importance in the great lakes is the whitefish. Despite the efforts of the National Bureau of Fisheries and fish commissions of the various states bordering on the lakes, the number has steadily decreased for many years. This is because the work of artificial propagation was not commenced early enough. Unavoidable causes reduced the number of whitefish secured last year by the government hatcheries, compared with the previous year, yet it planted in the inland seas 56,000,-000 whitefish eggs and nearly 200,-000,000 fry. In the great lakes and in small ones all over the United States there were deposited last year 10,000,-000 eggs of the lake trout, 34,000,000 fry and 4,000,000 fingerlings, yearlings and adults. The National Bureau of Fisheries will supply suitable species to anybody sending an application indorsed by a United States senator or representative.

The National Bureau of Fisheries will supply suitable species to anybody sending an application indorsed by a United States senator or representative. The species in greatest demand for stocking streams, ponds and preserves is the brook trout. The bureau's distribution of it last year covered every state and territory—in Pennsylvania practically every stream and pond was stocked. The total output was 500,000 eggs, 7,000,000 fry and 4,000,000 fingerlings. Next in popular demand is black bass. Of the large mouthed species 50,000 fry and 666,000 fingerlings were distributed in lots ranging from 25 to 3000. Of the small-mouthed species 537,000 fry and 110,000 fingerlings, were sent to all parts of the country by the bureau. The perch is a favorite fish of the bureau, for the ease with which it is cultivated, its hardiness and adaptability to a wide range of waters. Last year the bureau distributed 5,-000,000 eggs and 337,000,000 fry of the yellow perch, 17,000,000 eggs and 339,-000,000 fry of the white perch and 322,000,000 eggs and 155,000,000 fry of the pike perch. The Federal Bureau cooperates with the various state fish commissions and gives them a large share of its output. Illinois, for example, received last year from it 500,000 lake trout, 4,000,000 whitefish, 8,000,000 pike perch and 41,000 rainbow trout, all of which were placed in waters of the state, including Lake Michigan.

For a year and a half I suffered from pains in my sides and over my right kidney. It often seemed as if a knife were being thrust into me. I thought that the trouble was caused by heavy lifting, but I was unable to get relief from the remedies I took. Acting on the suggestion of a party who had used Doan’s Kidney Pills, I procured a box. Finding relief from their use, I continued taking them until the pain in my back ceased. The passages of the kidney secretions were also regulated and my kidneys were restored to a normal condition.
