After having been blocked for "I hours by the washout at North Fork, the railroad line through the moun tains 1 now opened for traffic. The first through train going east was No. 2, the eustbound passenger last even ing, while last night's No. 5 was the first westbound train to get through.

Stuhblc Field Riirned. During the storm Sunday night a stubble field on the ranch of Dick Adams' on McKay creek, was struck by lightning and set afire. A patch containing about 20 acres was burned when tho fire was quenched by the heavy downpour of rain. Consequent ly none of the grain stacks were caught. At several other places along Mc Kay the lightning struck the rural 'phone lines and made havoc for a time in homes having 'phones. At the John Wynn ranch the lightning flash ed clear across the room in which thei 'phone was located. Since then Mr. Wynn has fitted his 'phone with a lightning protector so as to prevent a recurrence of the accident Threshers Are Resuming. According to reports received this afternoon from the country north of here, most of the threshers commenc ed work at noon today. Owing to the moistening of the grain they could not run yesterday and the dew prevented starting up this morning. Aside from the day. and a half lost by the threshers there was practically no damage inflicted to the grain crop. In ordinary grain the rain did not damage, but it is said that smutty wheat will be the worse for the storm on account of the smut smudging th grain after having been wet. HELP THE SALVATION ARMY.

Hot Only Do We Oat Inspiration Tram Nature, But Health aa Well. For people who are run-down and nerv ous, who suffer from indigestion or dys- fiepsla, headache, biliousness, or torpid iver, coated tongue with bitter taste in the mornlngtand poor appetite, it be comes necessary to turn to some tonic or strcngtliener which will assist Nature and help them to get on their feet and fmt the body Into Its proper condition. It s becoming more and more apparent that Nature's most valuable health - giving agents are to be found in forest plants and roots. Nearly forty years ago, Dr. R.V. Pierce, now consulting physician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, at HiiUhIo, N. Y discovered that by sclontllically extracting and combining certain medici nal principles from native roots, taken from our American forests, he could pro duce a medicine which was marvelnusly elllelent In curing cases of blood disorder and liver and stomach trouble as well as many other chronic, or lingering ail ments. This concentrated extract of Nature's vitality he named "Golden Med Icnl Discovery. It purifies the blood by putting the stomach and liver into healthy condition, thereby helping the digestion and assimilation of food which feeds the blood. Thereby it cures weak stomach, Indigestion, torpid liver, or bil iousness, and kindred derangements. If you have coated tongue, with bitter or bud taste In tho morning, frequent headaches, fi-ol weak, easily tired, stitches or pain In side, back gives out easily and aches, belching of gas, constipation, or irregular bowels, feel flashes of heat al ternating with chilly sensations or kin dred symptoms, they point to derange ment of your stomach, liver and kidneys, which the "Golden Medical Discovery" will correct morn speedily and perma nently than any other known agent. Con tains no alcohol or Inililt-forming drugs. All Its Ingredients printed In plain Eug lUh on wrapper. The sole motive for substitution Is to permit tlie dealer to make a little more profit. He gains; yon lose. Accept nosub stltutn for "Golden Medical Discovery." Constipation causes and aggravate! many serious diseases. It Is thoroughly cured by Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

Berget, aged 39; Mrs. A. L. Berget, aged 37; Boy How ard, aged 28; A. L. Innian, aged 34. The two women were In the river bathing and wading, when Miss Jones suddenly stepped off a steep declivity In the river bed and with one scream went out of sight In the water, which a few yards from the bank forms a distinct whirlpool. Immediately Mrs. Berget went to her asslstanee, and she too stepped off the same shelf, and finding herself helpless, also screamed and was drawn nut of sight beyond the reach of Mr. Berget, her husbund, who came running nt .hp first sound of distress. Berget also lost his footing and went nut of sight. Before going down, Mr. Berget called loudly to others In the vicinity, but who were out of sight, and Inman, Howard and Mark Pauline came run ning to the scene, renchlng the bnnk to find Berget evidently helpless, but putting up a vigorous battle with the All Suits Purchased Here will be PRESSED ONCE A WEEK AND KEPT IN kEPAIR FREE OF CHARGE Thit shop offers Young Men as choice a selection in the New Style Suits for Fall as can be found at any store in the country even New York and Chicago.

The first man In after Berget was Inman, unj he went down within 20 feet of where Berget went out of sight Howard and Pauline went for their horses, which were tethered a few roils away and rode them Into tha stream. Howard's horse, as soon as he found himself off his feet plunged desperately and threw Howard, who vainly strove to seize the nnlmal by the tall or mane, hut could not do so and, being utterly unable to make headway against the current, went down. Pauline's horse from the start refused to go far enough Into the wa ter to get his feet off the bottom, a fact to which Pauline probably owes his own life. With the fate of the five persons who had preceded hi.. I as a warning. Pauline did not dare trust himself in the river and rode away and gave the alarm. He re turned soon with A. L. Moore, and together they rescued the body of Mrs. Berget, which floated. The oth ers had completely disappeared, and no trace of them has yet been found, though hundreds of pounds of dyna mite have been exploded In the effort to raise them to the surface.
