freshness of youth, causes It to grow

AVR'Q Hair Vigor has given me

Helped Hang Themselves.
A gentleman direct from the
Flathead country gives authentic
particulars of tbe lynching of the
two Indians concerned in the mur
der of the prospectors on "Wolf
creek. It appears that three Koo
tenais, named Antley, Slume and
Jonninna composed the gang who
did the bloody deed. As soon as
this was known the party of eighty
men went from Ramsdell's store
to the Indian encampment, where
they captured Slume and Jonninna
without any difficulty. Antley
was at another camp and before
the whites could get there he es
caped. Two prisoners were taken
over to Demarville, where a dep
uty sheriff took them away from
the party and handcuffed them to
gether. The boys, however, re
captured their men and took them
across the Flathead river into the
timber about a quarter of a mile.
The oldest of the three Indian boys,
who had been at the murder, was
taken along. Three interpreters
were provided in order that there
should be no chance of injustice
being done to the Indians. The
Indian boy told the story of the
murder. Then Slume confessed
in English his part in the crime
exulted over it.
The verdict was death. The
lynchers had but one rope, so they
hung the murderers one at a time.
Jonninna was first strung up. He
assisted them to fasten the rope
around his neck. The other end
was then thrown over a limb and
he was pulled up, Slume still be
ing handcuffed to him. Slume
seemed to enjoy it hugely and
laughed at his companion's strug
gles while strangling. Then they
let Jonninna down, untied the tope
and .adjusted it about Slume's
neck, he assisting them. As .soon
as he was fastened-ite pulled back
in such a manner as to draw the
rope tight and thus strangled,
not even attempting to help him
self with his disengaged hand.
Chief Eneas promises to deliver
Antley to the whites as soon as he
can be found. Z,emston N'ev's.

The Politest People.
A newspaper correspondent says
that the" politest and most accomo
dating people in the world live in
Mobile, and proves it thus: "I saw
a street car stop in order to allow
a lame negro, who was a passeng
er, to order and receive a flask of
whisky at a corner grocery, lhe
storekeeper came out to the car
for the purpose and the goods
were afterward wrapped up and
delivered with all the deliberation
due to so important a commercial
transaction. Then the car, with
its ten passengers, passed on."
The "Pale Faces."
This Is the eeneric designation of the white
race bestowed by our copper-colored brother
tbe '-noble savage." The Caucasian, though
many shades lighter. Is not necessarily pal
lid, Bnt when his cuticle has the parchment-colored
tint, and his cheeks the hoi.
lowness Indicative of a wantot bodily stam
ina, he well deserves the appellation of "pale
face." These facial indications should sug
gest a course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
an acknowledged rehabMtator of a falling
strength and renewer of bodily substance.
It Is derived exclusively from botanic source
Is pure and efficient. Its Invigorating ac
tion Is prompt, thorough and speedily felt.
Can tbe like be said of most tonics? Scarce
ly. Appetite, as well as the ability to satisfy
it without subsequent discomfort, is renewed
by it. and It effectually tones the liver and
dowcis u ioniues me system aeainst
