The extracts of these two pnpers are spoken of by every one of whom we have heard speak of them as being the most remarkable articles thnt they have ever neara read. The Doctor combines metaphysics, hygiene and medical Rci- ence flavored with the salts at common sence from a long life of practical ex perience sanitariums. hospltalB nnd medical colleges. His long services and constant efforts to Improve npnn the old methods, by his many new discoveries and inventions and appliances have placed Dr. Burner in the highest ranks of the medical profession of the present day and is one of the greatest benefactors of suffering humanity.

The Doctor had arranged In the hnll for this occasion five of his large vltllizers and' three of his J25 Instruments, four of his 1 15 Instruments nnd two of his lio instruments, all of which were constantly pouring forth into the hall large volumes of pure oxygen and ozone, hich kept thcair as pure as a rose. The ozone and nrxvgen could easily he detected by any healthy Individual, and one could easily have Imagined himself in one of the higher Ver-gin Mountains, where the oxygen and ozone are to be found In their greatest purity. This discovery, following as it did so quickly in the wake of the Electropohse and Oxydona. has nstnnished the medical and scientific world and it Is said that Professor Iturner has through his Company, refused $300 000 for the right in the I'nited States alone. It is covered with thirty-two patents.

After Dr. Iturner had talked one hour anit thirty minutes he made a plain statement to the audience that as he multiplied, that her laws may be enlightened and just, that her people may be prosperous and contented, and that the banner of our glorious Vnlon the Stars nnd Stripes may float In peace forever above our fertile valleys and frcm the mountain tops, over a happy, united. Intelligent and patriotic people. Let us ever remember the many manifold blessings and virtues handed down to us by the Pioneers, whom we delight to honor. It us not'forget that the history of their coming and settling In this far off western land is full of hardships and privations, and that we honor ourselves by paying tribute and respect to the early settlers of the State.

We should rejoice at the prosperity an.1 glory of the State, which the pioneers so wisely established. I firmly believe that there is a destiny In the pathway and progress of this State, for greatness and development such as the eye of man never beheld, nor the heart of man contemplated. You pioneers of California should be, nnd 1 sincerly hope you are, the happiest and proudest class of our citizens. Though age has whitened the hair of many of yon. though your steps are not as firm nor your forms as erect and stnng as In other days, yet you can rest assured that you hav the love and respect of all our people, and that you will ever live in the hearts nnd will forever survive in the memory of your friends and of your children and grandchildren unto the remotest Feneration.

If there be any monuments worthy of you, they are the great State which you the splendid superstructure of civil government which you have erected, and the great Institutions of learning which you have established. We know that you pioneers here did ns great and grand a work as was ever given to man to perform. In all the coming years your great achievements will be recounted, and future generations, enjoying the fruits of your toil and strugges. will rise up to call you blessed. I feol justified in saying; that In the keeping of the native sons and daughters of California, and the young men and women who come from other States, the future of this vast and growing commonwealth, will be safe for all time.

I sincerely hope that a kind Providence may spare the lives of the surviving Pioneers of California for many venrs to come, nnd that you may be permitted to moot together upon tunny hainiv occasions like this to celebrate the blithday of your most worthy and beloved President, nnd to talk over the stirring times you spent together in the lrlv days of California.

If the Ministers think hat an arrangement can be made by which safety will be assured In moving from the llritish Legatlonf 0 the Inside which is about 200 or 300 yards distant, this Government will agree to an armistice for that purpose, and nf ter Minister Conger has been safely delivered this Government will for a specified time cease hostilities with ni view to arranging of peare.
