Paris, Jan. 2O. Tfce American
colony is amusing itself by betting
which of its members will win in
the legal battle between Countess
Spottiswojod Mackin and the Duch
ea de La Rouchefoucauld and' her
hurbaod. the countess, who was
ennobled by Pope Leo XIII, is the
widow of the late State Senator
Mackin, of New York, and was
born Sallie Britton, of S. Louis,
Mo. The Duchess was MIbs Mattie
Mitchell, daughter of tha late Unit
ed States Senator Mitchell, or Ore
gon. The quarrel comes . again be
fore the courts this week and the
decision hangs, bo the betting is
lively.
The duke and duchess rented the
Countess' mansion here through a
friend of the latter, according to
statements in court. The ducal
tenants paid the monthly rent.
$200, only a short time. Then
they complained that the furnace
was out of order and dangerous and
installed themselves at the Hotel
Ritz. They demandtd $9oo from
C.'Untes8 Mackin in the way of
damages for the hotel bills they
had to pay and the inconveniences
thev suffered.
Instead of paying damsges, the
countess had the duchess' furs, jew
els, lace and silver seized and put
in a crdnter claim for $2,000 dam
age, which she declares the Roche
foocaulde did to her house.
Now they are alleging that Coun
ters Mackin domicile is in America
and that she will be obliged to de
posit with the court a monetary
guarantee of costs of suit before the
trial of the main issue. She re
torts that her house here consti
tutes a domicile and affords suffi
cient guarantee.

Sampter, Or., Jan. 2O. The
h 'ivy storm which has prevailed
ii his section showed no signs cf
at atementjantil today. Snow has
p'.l-d up to such a depth in many
01 the mining camps that it is al
most impossible to do any surface
woik, except in the immediate vi
c nity of the mine buildings and
sbnfts and tunnels.
Hauling ot wood is next to im
possible, as horees, wagon and all
would simply disappear in the drifts
encountered. At the Buckeye, enow
is over eight feet deep on a level,
and at the Mountain View, located
at the greatest altitude of any work
ing mine in the Cracker district,
ten feet is recorded, and in places
drifts have piled up 2t) feet or more.
In the Rock ' Creek . section snow
slides are already reported doicg
considerable damage to some mm
ing properties.
The regular Sumpter Valley pas
senger that went over to Austin,
lhursday, was stalled on the down
grade to that point, and it was ne
cessary to send the snow plow over
the road to allow the passenger to
return. The train did not reach
here until midnight, almost eight
hours behind schedule time.
The road between here and
Bourne, the most frequently trav
eled thoroughfare in this district,
is in bad shape.
At Sumpter the snow is four feet
deep on the level, and the prospects
are tor a continuance of the fall.

One Dollar Saved Represents Tea
Dollars Earned.
The average man does not save to exceed
ten per cent, of his earnings. He must spend
nine dollars in living expenses for every
dollar saved. That being the case he can
not be too careful about unnecessary ex
penses. Very often a few cents properly in
vested, like buying seeds for his garden, will
save several dollars outlay later on. It is
the same in buying Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. It costs
but a few cents, and a bottle of it in the house
often saves a doctor's bill of several dollars.

Physicians who have gained a national
reputation as analysts of the cause of various
diseases, claim that if catching cold could be
avoided a long list of dangerous ailments
would never be heard of. Everyone knows
that pneumonia and consumption originate
fr.im a cold, and chronic catarrh, bronchitis,
anil all throat and lung trouble are aggra
vated and rendered more serious y eich
fresh attack. Do not risk your life or take
chances when you have a cold. .Chamber
lain's Cough- Remedy will cure it before
these diseases develop. . This remedy con
tains no opium, morphine or other harmful
Jrug, and has thirty years of reputation back
of it, gained by its cures under every condi
tion. For sale by Graham & Wortham.
