REDDING, March 31.— The examinationof the first batch of strikers arrested ona charge of riot began in Justice Strong'scourtroom this morning. The Supervisors'room at the courthouse, used as the Jus-tice's office, was too small to accommo-date the crowd of spectators. James G.Maguire of San Francisco is defendingthe strikers, while District AttorneyDozier and Bralnard and Shanahan areprosecuting. The examination may not beconcluded until the end of the week onaccount of the large number of witnesses,many of whom are Italians and cannotspeak or understand a word of ¦ English.S. V. Merle was sworn ln as Interpreter.The defense objected strongly to having:Merle serve, but the court overruled theirobjections and had him' sworn In." Theprosecution have fifteen witnesses suo-penaed, while .the defense have a great-er number. At the rate, the examinationsare progressing th'ey. will probably oc-cupy the greater portion of tho week.

storm of the season prevailed here to-day. With the ground saturated to itsfullest capacity, all that now falls mustbe carried away by the various water-courses. Every gulch Is a miniaturestream and floods on the lowlands mustresult Ifthe storm continues.

Everything points to amost prosperous season and the heaviestcrops this section has ever known.

Rains, jarring March, havebeen followed by warm, bright days, andnow the country Is looking Its best andcrops of all kinds are doing well. Fruittrees are ln full bloom, green feed isabundant and cattle are thriving. Allstreams in the neighborhood are rising,but have not yet attained the height offormer years. As the land was in good

The Mountain Copper Company hasbeen able to operate its smelting plantand mines, notwithstanding the secondstrike. The copper trust has thereforebeen frustrated. Only about seventymen are Involved in the present strike atKeswick, hundreds are working the minesand smelter. :.; '•':'.'.

Just about this time, an official of theWestern Federation, In a confidentialtalk, asserted that the strike at Keswick,Cal., would not cost tlie federation onecent, as funds were provided from anoth-er source.

At this meeting and prior to it,as. theadvices here received read, J. T. Lewis,an official of the Western Federation, ofMiners in California,, declared that theWestern Federation opposed artotherstrike, because sufficient cause for suchstrike did not exist. .Lewis is, reportedto have said publicly: "The federationwillnot contribute a cent t& support an-other strike at this time."

Just four days later Lewis ordered thesecond strike without permitting the Kes-wick miners to vote upon the proposition.He declared at that time that he actedunder direction from Denver. A copy ofa placard announcing the strike, whichwas posted at Keswick, has been sentto this city.

A, CONVERSATION WITH^ ACLIMAX. v.

When a Professional Han Talks, It's. v :to the Point. ;,

Several famous American physicians

and surgeons were recently dining to-gether after a session of aonatlonal meet-ing held in New York."Ihad a remarkable case this winter,"

remarked a surgeon present, whose nameas a specialist in rectal diseases is worldwide. "My patient was a woman, adelicate, nerve racked creature, who hadsuffered so fearfully from the ravages ofhemorrhoids that the knife seemed theonly solution of the trouble, and yet herheart was weak and her strength sowasted by this fearful disease that wedared not operate.

"1 had ceased my visits to her for atime and had given up all hope, when onomorning she entered my office lookinglike a new woman; the pallor had dis-appeared and the lines of suffering werenearly eradicated from her face. Shetold me that she had purchased a pro-prietary medicine, namely Pyramid PileCure, and that from the first insertion oftho suppositories she had obtained Instantrelief. Imade an examination and foundthe rectum in excellent condition, the In-

-flammation entirely disappeared and theswollen veins in normal condition."Iwas so interested in the case thatI

had the remedy analyzed carefully andwas so pleased with the result of theanalysis, finding a combination of themost healing and scientific remedies pres-ent in the Pyramid Pile ,Cure and in amore convenient form than Icould se-cure them otherwise, that Iwrote to thePyramid Drug Company at Marshal!,Mich., asking for their booklet on Piles,their Nature, Cause and Cure (which bythe way is. sent free) ,_ and have sinceused their Pile Cure extensively and withbest results in my practice. Ido nothesitate :to recommend it to you .all. Itwilloften save your patient from a pain-ful surgical operation, which •In manycases results fatally." ¦
