THE TEEEOE OP THE PLAINS, t
A Wild Western Blizzard and Its Pear
ful De3tructi7eness.
A man just in from Fort Nio
brara was warming himself over a
register in the Sherman House one
afternoon. "You people in this
part of the country," he said,
"have little idea of the terrors of
a blizzard oh the plains. Out
where I came from one of these
storms means death to man and
beast. Nothing can live in the
blinding, piercing gale. The bliz
zard in western Kansas and Ne
braska and Dakota about ten days
ago was as disastrous to human
life as any we had last winter. It
burst upon the country with a
fierceness seldom equalled in that
land of elemental disturbances.
The ranges were p"Ld high with
drifting snow, and cattle, becom
ing confused in the flying crystals,
perished in their tracks.
"One of the melancholy inci
dents of the storm was the loss of
a very pretty 3Toung woman the
belle of a Dakota village. She had
just left her home for the purpose
of relieving a poor family who
were in distress, when the blizzard
roared up on her. Losing her
way in the darkness and whirling
snow, she fell from exhaustion and
was not found until her hands and
feet were to badly frozen that am
putation was resorted to to save
her life. When I left the country
the unfortunate girl was lving at
the point of death.
"Another sad incident of the
storm was tho loss of two children
who were at play in the outskirts
of a Nebraska town. The blizzard
swept them from the face of the
earth as completely as though they
had been swallowed up. As soon
as they were missed 200 men and
boys set out in the teeth of the
gale to rescue them. They searched
the country over, but not a ves
tige of the little fellows could be
found. It is not unlikely that the
blizzard picked them up and bore
them a long distance from the spot
where they were last seen at play.
"There were many other fatali
ties which I cannot now recall, but
which were fully as melancholy as
the one I have described. Noth
ing can compare with the fury o
one of our blizzards. It stop
one's breath, inflames the eye-.ni
roars in your ears until you think
your head will surely split. The
flying snow which pelts you in the
face, stings like so many needles,
and nearlv drives vou mad with
pain, lour legs grow weak, nau
sea adds to your misery, and, final
ly, when life ceases to .be worth
battling for, you fall to the gronnd
and slowly freeze to death." Chi
cago Herald.
The Rapidity of Progrcbs Toward Health.
Even when a good remedy for disease is se
lected, depends In some measure upon the
manner in which It is taken. Inegular, in
terrupted doses can afford no fair test of
the efficacy of any medicine, however sa'u
tary. Taken in proper doses at prescribed
Intervals, a reliable curative ill effect the
object of its use. Among remedies which,
systematically and persistently used, ac
comu'Ish thorough and lasting cures, and
prevents the recurrence of periodic dlseate.

high. In cases of dyspepsia, debility, rheu

tried remedy, to which the medical brothei
hood have lent" their professional sanction,
and which, as a tonic, alterative and house
hold specific for dlsoiders of the stomach,
liver and bowels, has an unbounded pop
ularity. The Heppner Gazette is always
equal to the occasion. Referring
to the present spell of soft weath

National Board of Trade.
Washington, Jan. 21. The
National board of trade to-day dis
cussed the resolution favoring gov
ernment aid for the improvement
of the Columbia river. Senater
Dolph, of Oregon, spoke in favor
of it. The resolution was rejected.
A resolution was submitted by
the Cincinnati chamber of com
merce asking congress to consider
the feasibility of converting a hun
dred million of the present bonded
debt into long term bonds
bearing interest at the rate of
two per cent, per annum with
a view to use them as security of
the national government for de
posits and other forms of trust.
After brief discussion it was
adopted.
A resolution to the effect that it
is the most imperative duty im
posed on congress to adopt a meas
ure necessary to protect and forti
fy the coast seaports of the country.
That the defense of the harbors
of New York and San Francisco
he the work first undertaken, as
they 'nvolve the largest risks and
are least protected of all larger
cities. Adopted.
A Statement Prom 0. P. Huntington.
New York,' Jan. 21. U. P. Hunt
ington said yesterday: "The pur
chase of the Oregon & California
will not involve the issue of any
new Central Pacific stock. The
amount of Central Pacific stock
now outstanding is 100,000,000
Some of this outstanding stock,
now in the treasury, will be used
to buy the Oregon & California
road."
Delicate persons, pnd all whose .sys
tems have become debilitated, should
bear in mind that Simmons Liver Regu
lator is not a drastic, pinging medicine,
does not weaken or deplete the system
as other purgatives do, but acts gently.
It will invigorate like a glass of wine,
but is no intoxicating beverage to lead
to i:ttempparncc:viil promote digestion,
dissipate headache, and generally tone
up the svsteni.
Hon. Alex. II. Stephens, of G.i., says:
"Simmons Liver Regulator is mild and
suits me better than more active rem
edies." A new departure has been made
in the rules of the United States
penitentiary, McNeill's inland.
Every person brought to that isl
and under sentence now has the

When she gets her lips properly
puckered she looks so bewitch

LIVER REGULATOR
For all Diseases of the
liver, Kidneys, Stomach and Spleen.
This purely vegetable pre
paration, now so celebrated as a
Family Medicine, originated ia
the South in 1828. It acts
gently oa the Bowels and
Kidneys and corrects the
action of the Liver, and is, there
fore, the best preparatory
medicine, whatever the sick
ness may prove to be. In all
common diseases it will, un
assisted by any other medi
cine, effect a speedy cure.

No loss of time, no inter

Children complaining of
Colic, Headache, or Sick

If taken occasionally by pa
tients exposed to MALARIA,
will expel the poison and protect
them from attack.
A PHYSICIAN'S OPINION.
I have been practicing medicine for twentv vears.
and have never been able to put up a vegetable
compound that would, like Simmons Liver Regu
lator, prompdy and effectively move the Liver to
action, uid at the same time aid (instead of weak,
ening) the digestive and assimilative powers of the
sjstem. L. M. Hinton, M. D. .Washington, Ark.
