Ex-representative Taulbee, of Ken

WHITE CAPS IN COLOBADO.
Denveb, Dec 10. A special from
Holyoke, Colo., says a masked mob of
seven White Caps, last night, took
J. D. Bennett and W. D. Kelsey, two
prominent attorneys, from their beds
and not allowing them to dress, drove
them two miles in the country, where
they administered a most brutal
horse-whipping and warned them to
leave tho country. Tho perpetrators
of the outrage then left the men and
returned to the town. Bennett and
Kelsey, after several hours, reached
home and to-day they are in a critical
condition. It is thought the White
Gaps are known and they will be ar
rested. The trouble has grown out of
a county seat war and if the guilty
parties are secured, sensational re
sults are anticipated.

. A newly appointed justice of the
peace in northern Idaho was asked
last Thursday what he would charge
to marry a forlorn looking couple that
had appeared to him from the back
woods. The J. P. thought he could
perform the ceremony for fifty cents,
the man allowed that he might raise
that sum. On the performance of the
ceremony, the justice called for his
fee. After considerable fumbling in
the pockets of his overalls the bride
groom thought he had either lost it or
left it "to-hum." The J. P. having no
desire to lose so large a prize as fifty
cents, calmly informed tho rustic
youth that ho was "unmarried." A
bystander came to the rescue of the
young man and loaned him fifty cents,
which was handed to his honor. The
justice then remarked that they were
again married, and at liberty to de
part DK, ACKER'S I'.NGLISH PILLS

He Knew How to Work It.
Some years ago. when judge H. G.
Hicks was not ro prosperous as ho
has'beenin later years, says tho Minn
eapolis Tribune, he owed a little
bill of S2-3 to a well known firm, and
one of the members cime to see him
about it The judge, then a plain
colonel, latoly returned from tho war,
frankly confessed that ho was
"busted," and asked for an extension
of time.
'Can't do it," said the gentleman;
"If you can't pay it wo will have to
suo you."
"How can I pay when I haven't got
the money':"' asked the colonel.
All I ant i3 a little time."
' "Well we'll have to bring suit,"
said the gentleman, as ho started off.
"Hold on, said the colonel, as a
bright idea struck him "why not give
me the case? You will have to cm
ploy some lawyer." -
"That's so," said tho genweman ; "all
right, bring the suit."
Colonel Hicks brought the suit,
confessed judgment, sent in his bill
for $50 attorney's fees, collected it,
and then settled the judgment. From
that time on, ho had all the firm's law
business.

All He Needed Wnz Dat Nickel.
Financially, as a people, under freo
trade we would all be like the darkey
who was raised in the north when he
made his first trip to New Orleans.
He was leisurely walking along the
main retail street. He came to a
large fmit and vegetable house, and
the watermelons wero stacked up on
tho pavement six feet high on both
sides of the door. They .were the
largest melons, ever seen in any state.
The darkey's mouth watered and his
eyes began to open as he stood there
with carpet sack in hand, charmedly
viewing tho luscious fruit before him.
He yelled to the proprietor and asked
him tho price, who replied that he
could take his choice for a nickel,
whereupon the darkey exclaimed,
"Great day in tho morning, don't I
wish I had dat nickel?"
A Puzzle.
Why grown men and women with matured
reflective powers should neglect thoir small
ailments is roally a puzzle. Hosts of other
wise sensible people thus bewilder conjecture,
ltisonoof the things which, as tho lato la
mented Lord Dundroary exclaimed, "no fel
lah can find out." Diseases crow faster th in
weeds, and, moreover, beget one another.
Incipient indigestion, a. touch of biliousness,
slight irregularity in th6 habit of body what
complex and serious bodily disturbance, not
local but general, do thoso not beget, it dis
regarded? Baffle and drive off tho foo at tho
first onset with Hostettor's Stomach Bitters,
sovoreign among preventives. A constitution
invigorated, a circulation enriched, a brain
and stomach tranquilized by this national
medicino, becomes well nigh invulnorable.
