And the constantly increasing de

' There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the laat few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it incurable,
Science has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease, and therefore requires constitu

Owner"! of Utah Flocks Bring Damage Suits
- Against the Idaho Authorities.
Salt Lake, Oct. 28. Utah sheep
men who had so much trouble with
the Idaho authorities early in the
summer over the question of grazing
Utah sheep in Idaho, have begun
suits in the- Third district court-to
recover damages. There were nine
suits filed in all, eight of them for
damages to the flocks and one for
malicious prosecution and damage to
character. The aggregate amount of
damages claimed is $34,47.
'With the exception of the com
plaint of Shafer, the allegations are
all-similar, and state that on or about
July 12, 1901, the . defendant un
lawfully took possession of flocks of
sheep belonging to the plaintiffs and
grazing on the public lands of Oneida
county, Idaho, and that by reason of
the action many of the sheep died,
and strayed, many lambs were prema
turely born and a large amount of
wool was lost. - : r

QUAINT SAM HOUSTON.
musing; Story of the Famous Texan
. When Be Cat in the eenate.
Gen. Sam Houston of Texas was tho
most picturesque figure in the Senate
during my first .' years of service at
the capital, writes Galusha A. Grow In
the Saturday Post Like Benton, he
was very fond of young men, and soon
came to count me as "one of the boys.
Only those who were youngsters in the
40s can realize the Interest people felt
In Houston in the days when his part
in the struggle for the independence of
Texas was still fresh in the public
mind. Visitors to the Senate chamber
Invariably asked to have him pointed
out to them, and they were never dis
appointed in their hero, for he wns
large of frame, of stately carriage and
dignified demeanor and had a Uonlike
countenance.
No passage In Houston's career was
nobler than the heroic stand against
disunion which marked Its close, while
of his kindliness of nature and gener
ous helpfulness to those in distress one
could recall stories sufficient to fill a
volume. . -
Near Quincy, 111., there was a stretch
of country known as the "Indian
tract," to which Houston held title, a.
fact many of the settlers thereon, a
careless pioneer brood, failed to search
out One of them called upon Wil
liam A. Richardson, long a member of
the House from the Quincy district and
subsequently a Senator from his State,
confided to him that be had Inadver
tently settled upon 160 acres of Hous
ton's land and that all he was worth
stood In improvements on it He want
ed Richardson to see Houston and
make the best terms that he could.
Richardson upon bis return to Wash
ington told Houston the story and ask
ed what he would take for a quit claim
deed to the 160 acres. , , , !
"What sort of a man Is this constitu
ent of yours who has blundered upon
my land?" asked Houston.
A good, square, honest man, was
the reply.
When I turn him off my land I
reckon he and. his family will be beg
gars.'
Richardson nodded. -
"What's this farm worth now?"
asked Houston.
Improvements and all, about $6,
000," was the response.
"What was the bare place worth
when yon fellows went on It?"-querled
Houston. '
About $5 an acre; $800 In all," an
swered Richardson. .
"Good fellow, this man of yours,
Richardson?" This after a moment's
thought.
Best in the world." said Richardson.
Tell hlrh to send me $800 and I'll
make him a deed." -
In due time the $800 reached Wash
ngton in the shape of a New York
draft Richardson sought Houston,
who, having executed a deed, took the
draft and indorsed it
You say this man of yours Is a good
fellow?": he asked, thoughtfully.
Couldn't be a better one," was the
emphatic answer.
Send him back this draft and tell
him Sam Houston has changed his
mind. : What can you buy a good sad
dle horse for -In that country?" - He
was told that $200 would do it "Well,
then," said Houston, "write to your
friend and tell him to buy a first-class
saddle hdrse, about 4 years old, and
keep him for me. When Congress ad
journs I will go home with you and
ride the horse down to Texas." '"
Wlthput delajj the man In Illinois re
ceived back his draft and bought
saddle horse, the' best he could find.
Just before adjournment Houston
sought Richardson. "You say the fel
low who's got my horse is a tiptop good
man?" Richardson again 'declared him
one of the best in his district "Well."
said Houston, with a sigh, "I should
have liked first rate to see him and also
my horse, but as affairs turn out I
must go straight to Texas.; When you
get home go over and see this man and
tell him to sell the horse and do what
he pleases with the money. - And, by
the way. RIchardson, I wish you would
write and tell me If It was a good horse
or not." .-- ' '.- . -'

Untidy London.
.. A London medical journal says the
English metropolis is possibly the most
inconvenient and most untidy city of
Europe. The streets are either muddy,
slushy or dusty; they are littered with
straw, cabbage leaves,, newspaper post
ers and omnibus tickets; they are con
stantly being grubbed up for some rea
son or other; barrels of beer, coals and
other" goods are delivered across the
footways at all nours of the day. So
long - as London Is governed by, or
rather is dependent for its due regula
tion upon, a number of bodies all inde
pendent of each other, "so long will
nuisances of various k'uds continue.
