EUREKA!
Mr Thomas Batte, editor of the
.Graphic, Texarkana, Arkausas, has
found what he believes to be the boat
remedy in existence for the flux . His
experience is well worth remembering.
He says: "Last summer I had a very
severe attack of tlux. I tried almost
every known remedy, none giving re
lief. Chamberlain's Colic. Cholora and
Diarrhoea Remedy was recommend
ed to me. I purchased a bottle and re
ceived almost immediate relief. I
continued to use the medicina uud was
entirely cured. I take pleasure in
recommending this remedy to any per
son suffering with such a disease, as in
my opinion it is the best medicine in
existence." 2" and 50 cent bottles for

counters a diversity of scenery that
prevents the journey from becoming

a glade. Here a valley clothed in

about whose base daisies bloom per
petually, while its snow capped peak
kissc3 tfce clauds, in the home of
the blizzard and the hurricane.
Here a quiet little rill, winding like
a serpent through the glen and there
a noisy, turbulent stream that has
broken away from the frozen clasp
of the glacier and comes tearing
down the mountain side like a run
away horse. The journey across a
range of mountains high or low, will
become irksome and you'll be

the vicinity of the springs has been
a deep tangible wildwood. JFour

a pioneer- ot northern Calif., saw the
wonderful possibilities of this loca

health of the party was good but no

an ox, but looks are sometimes de
ceiving and this 'was no exception.
William has for a long time been
troubled with enlarging on the truth
about the peculiar and particular
virtues of a quaint, crooked-legged,
copper colored, hound pup. To
hear him tell it "That dog would

would not touch anything unless
specially invited; leave out mathe

T. H. B. Taylor, the' versatile
writer and good citizen ot ootl
ville, is now visiting at his old home
in York State. He writes of his
preparation for his trip, the trip
proper, Chicago and the .narrow
confines of ''Xiio York :"
Dear Mr. Editor: Let us recapit
ulate. I have perhaps become
somewhat previous, so we will rub
it all out and begin over.
One reason whv I got through as
well as I did, is, perhaps, my tend
ing strictly to the advice my grand
ma gave me years and yeaas ago;
so when I left home I made me
some little sachets and put a small
piece of " 'felty" in each and placed
one in each of my coat pockets, and
then I had a piece about the size of
a chestnut (a horse-chestnut, I
mean) which I carried in jny vest
pocket; all these were to insure
health, for my aforesaid grandma
told me that there was no telling
anyone "was liable to catch the
hieroglyphics or pneumatics or
something of the kind, by traveling
around with those "plagey 4iners,"
furthermore it makes room;
whenever there began to be more
than three in a seat, I would take
out my little piece of asafoetida and
give it a few gentle rubs up and
down the leg of my trousers, and
pretty soon someone would say, "I
guess I will go into the smoker ;"
some would say something about
the air being fixed, etc.; and soon I
would have a whole seat to myself.
I like to died one day, after trying
the "'felty" hypothesis; there was
a rather skookum lady only two or
three seats from me and I saw she
appeared to have either lost confi-
dence or wanted to, ana tor tne lire
of tne I couldn't tell which; but
when the conductor en tne around
she was looking as though she
would like to haye a rod or two of
barbed wiro fence to chew. Says
she, "Why don't you remove those
Chindmen from that front car.'
The conduc' savs, "Beg pardon,
Madam, but there are no China
men there." Well, says she, "Do
you permit the porter to sell that
horrid Liinhe-g on the train t .o,
Madam," says Conduc. "Well,"
says she, "1 think you had better
smash one of those jugs of fire ex
tinguishers in this car, anyay."
And there I was, with a whole seat
and my sleeves, and in fact my
whole anatomy, running over with
mirthfulness.
Well, I got along without ant
other incident worth recounting
here, until I got to to well, I
can't call the name just now, but it
was where Mrs. O'l-itary's cow
kicked over the lantern, some time
ago. There I had to change cars,
and when I went for mv baggage
the smasher wanted me to give up
my check, but "I vasvsmart for
dat" (for my - grandma told Die
to never give up my check until I
got to my destiny). I was just
going to put a protubera.nce on that
baggage man when along camo a
great overgrown dude, with an over
sized drum stick in his hand and a
big tin star on his blue coat. I
dou't know who he was, but I guess
it was the mayor, or it "might have
been the city council; anyway he
was or seemed to be, of a good daal
of importance. Says lie to me,
"You are from Skowhegan, am't
vou?" "No sir," says I, "I am from
Tail-Holt, Orygon, and am a
upright citizen." "1 thought so,"
says he, "one of those fellows that
blows out the gas." I did not know
what he meant, so I said, "I guess
to a very limited space of country.
I try to get out in the country and
just ns I am beginning to look for
green pastures by the running
brook slam I run up against an
other town. No Sir, they may talk
about their "Down East," but give
me the tall pine hills and rockv
trees of the Italy of Oregon name

In Homer the chiefs, summoned on a

Tho historical dress for ladies was a

fair Briton, it usually falls off again. A

Lynching at Lakewicw.
From Klamath Falls Star.
Last Monday morning about 1
oVlock, long before dawn had
drawn its gray rope around, the
neck of night, V. S. Thompson,
desperado of Warner valley, whs
taken out of jail at Lakeview and
hanged until he was dead.
At that solemn hour Marshal
Heminger, acting as nightwatch-
man, was held up bv a number of
masked citizens, who demanded the
keys to the county jail in tones so
firm, stentorian and threatening
that there was no alternative.
The man they wanted belonged
to that class of men whose wicked
nesses have habituated the old .
bones of Judge Lynch to ache for a
hanging bee even as a hot toon
aches for a pull. Thompson was
confined in jail on a charge of draw
ing his gun on several parties, but
when he turned pale in the presence
of the masked men, he was made
to realize that the drawing his gun
on ciuz'.'iis was the. least nagitious
of his excesses. His Sundav enre
had included the heinousness of
smashing his wife's nose, breaking
three of her ribs, cutting to death
her saddle horse and ripping wide
open the abdomens of a few other
horses in the barn-yard, lie was
taken to the court house steps
and strangled to death, probably by
residents of Warner valley.
Such brutes are no good on earth.
The objections to lvnehings in gen
eral arc decent and well sustained.
But the cry against lynching in this
particular case will not be popular.
A few loud expressions of distress
wll proceed from the mouths of
men who are in distress only to be
heard while airing their eloquence,
hut they will not prevail. Too hard
to comprehend, they will soon cease
to echo in the ears of the just. The
coroner's jury rendered a verdict of
strangulation at the hands of parties
unknown.

Changed, did you say? What,
Chicago? Well, I should say!
Why, when I was here- last or first,
rather there was only one street
in Chicago called Water street,
but it got to be awful thick water
along about February or March,
iust after the frost came to the
surtace. ihere was a mile "reu
front" grocery on one side of the
street and a hash factory and black
smith 6hoo on the other. A Ver-
monter had got out there and put
up a derrick right in the middle of
the street and when a fellow got
stuck crossing he would for two
bits pull him out. The freighling
business was all done with ox teams
across Lake Erie. And now see
what a place it is. I asked a man
what were the two largest things on
record, and be said, Setting asiue
the whale and the flood, the next
two were the Eiffel wheel and Mont

Coxeyttes Moving Westward.
From Fargo (North Pukola) Republican.
This morning's train from the
east brought in. about twenty-five
Coxevites. who arc on their way
west, having had an elegant suffici
iency of "marching on to Washing
ton." Certainly they were a dust-
begrimed set, and bear evidence to
the fact that they are "not a happy
lot." In answer to inquiries from a
Republican reporter one of the men
replied:
"Yes, we are on Our way west
how far depends largely on circum
stances. Of course, we have no
money and are compelled to "move
by easy stages." But there is one
fact you can rest assured of we
are going west no more "down
east" on my plate, if you please.
Why, I would rather tramp in the
west than live in luxury in the cast.
But nobody but the nabobs and old
landmarks live in comfort there,
the floating population is very large
and opportunities for tvork are out
of the question. Yes, some of our
leaders misled us, there is no deny
ing that fact, but there is no uso of
crying over spilled nfilk."

in consequence of pecuniary losses, to

makes his plea: "A nobleman, married

post of manager of somo estate or of a

pension commtwiioncTS instead of one.
One wonld represent each political party,
inclnding the Populists. They would
hold office six years and in disputed
cases a majority of the board would de
cide. Hudson -also introduced a bill for
the coining of all silver from American
mines into standard silver dollars.
The last month of the present session
of congress, t-xcepting the ten days dur
ing which the tariff bill has been in the
president's hands, has been fairly pro
ductive of general legislation, and there
is a short list of bills which have be
come laws to add to the review of the
session's work previously published. All
of tho appropriation bills have now be
come laws. The general deficiency and
the sundry civil bills were both signed
late in the session, and the latter meas
ure embraces two important pieces of
legislation the appropriation of $200,
000 for a government exhibit'at the Cot
ton States exposition, to be held at At
lanta, and the. cession to each of the
arid land states, and the states which
may be formed from the territories, of
(1,000,000 acres each of desert lands for
reclamation, a plan which is intended
to advance the movemeut for irrigation
in the West, and to partially take tho
pfiice of the scheme for irrigation by
the general government, which has been
fostered by the Western members.
General Daniel E. Sickles has a
scheme for the construction of a grand
national park which will include the
battlefield and other historic points of
interest at Gettysburg. The purchase
of something like 4,000 acres in and
around Gettysburg is embraced in the
plan. The government already owns
several hundred acres at the scene of tha
decisive battle of the war, and General
Sickles proposes to acquire about 3,500
acres more. - His plan contemplates tha
establishment of a military post at Get,
tysburg, as well as a soldiers' home and
Indian school and perhaps a

War's SUdrrn Horrors WIU Kill War.
Various experiments with the new ri
fles which have recently taken place in
Germany have demonstrated in a very
conclusive manner that another war
wonld practically be one of annihilatiorL
A well known French writer, in an ar
ticle which be devotes to the subject, to
day says that the battlefield would at the
termination pi the engagement be cov
ered with 200,000 or 300,000 corpses all
crushed and broken and wonld be noth
ing bnt a vast enamel house. No one
would be left to bury the dead, and pesti
lence would in its turn sweep away the
country people. Pointing the moral, he
adds that the man emperor, king or
president of the republic who under
these conditions would expose the hu
man race to such a fate would be the
greatest criminal that the world had
ever seen. It is tolerably plain that the
horrors and the butchery which a war
would entail are becoming more and
more recognized, and that the terrible
vista thus opened out is exercising a
sobering effect 011 those who were for.
