That Favorite Home Remedy,
PAIN-KILLER,

Has been before the public over thirty years. and
probably has a wider and better reputation than
any other proprietary medicine of the present day.
At this period there are but few unaequainted with
the merits of the Pain Killer but, while some ex-
tol it liniment, they know but little of its pow
er in easing pain when taken internally while
others use it internally with great success, but are
equally ignorant of its healing virtues when APP
piled externally. We therefore wish to say to all
that it is equally successful whether used internal
ly or externally. 1t is sufficient evidence of its
virtues standard medicine to know that it is
used in all parts of the world and that its sale
is constantly increasing. No curative agent has
had such wide spread sale or given such univer-
sal satisfaction.
Davis Pain-Killer is purely vegetable COM
pound, prepared from the best and purest materi-
ais, and with care that insures the most perfect
uniformity in the medicine; and while it is most
effective remedy for pain, it is perfectly safe med
icine, even in the most unskilful hands.
1t is eminenty Family Medicine; and by be-
ing kept ready for immediate resort, will save
many an hour of suffering, and many a dollar in
time and doctors bills.
After thirty years trial, it is still receiving
the most unqualified testimonials to its virtues
from persons of the highest character and RESPONSE
bility. Eminent Physicians commend it a most
efectual preparation for the extinction of pain 1t
is not only the best remedy known for Bruises
es. Cuts Burns, DC. but for Dysentery, or Cholera
or any sort of bowel complaint, it is remedy un-
surpassed for efficiency, and rapidity of action
In the great 1ities Of India, and other hot climates
it has become the standard medicine for all such
complaints. as well as for Dyspepsia, Liver Com
plants, and all other kindred disorders For
Coughs and Colds, Canker. Asthma, and Rheumat
&c dinculties, 1t has been proved by the most
abundant and convincing testimony to be an in
valuable medicine.
We would caution the public against all imita-
tons OF our preparation, either IN name or style of
putting up.

LOCATING A LAND WARRANT.-A

a document 1t can be made to do duty
in locating a claim to fort, mine worth
FIVE or six million dolars-the keystone
for instance-a Westinghouse, Indian
reservation, mineral springs and what not
The latest use noted is the locating of a
school warrant on Camp Independence

toned at that post, conceived that it would
be good thing to gobbe up the entire
reservation, storehouses, barracks and all
the appurtenances of the post He accord
ingly located school land warrant thereon,
and for some years has been pushing
his claim. Surveyor General Gardener
has made applications in behalf of Nc
Laughliu, for 800 acres, or for Camp Inde-

Mclaughlin will he set up for life. Some

GREENDAcKs.-As the press of Cali
fornia generally has been discussing the
currency question, we might as we'll put
our oar in. Our opinion is, that there
should be no other medium of barter or
exchange but solid, metallic coinage of
gold and silver, whose value has ever been
recognized by the world, and never can
depreciate. The occasion for which the
issue of greenbacks becamea necessity hav-
ing passed, they have fully fulfilled their
use and are no lon ger needed Therefore,
we hold that the Government should i'm
mediately call them all in, redeem them at
their face value, and then burn the rags
and be rid of such rubbish.-Lake County

NARROW GUAGE RAILBoAD.-The Te-
hama Independent of the Dist, inst, SAYS
Last week we announced that Hon. G.
Cole, president, and l. f. Magary, gener-
al agent FIR the Cal Cent. Narrow Guage
Railroad Company, would be in our town
on Tuesday Mr.. Magary arrived accord
ing to announcement, but Mr.. Cole was
prevented by the illness of Mrs. Cole
Mr.. Magary reports that work is being
pushed forward on the road at Benicia, and
that the first twerty, FIVE miles will be fin
ished by the first of February. This may
look like slow work but it is quite the con-
trary The company having failed to OBJ
tain the right of way through the Govern
mcnt reservation at Benicia was obliged
TO cut through hills which greatly adds to
the labor of building the road. There are
also several miles of tule lands to be cross
ed in the first twenty FIVE miles of the road
of which will consume great amount OF
time. After these are past quick work
can be made with the balance of the road
Mr.. Magary says that the company viii be
able to move the next years grain crop OF
the Sacramento Valley, which we sincerely
hope will be the case. The Board of Di
rectors have decided that Tehama is to be
the terminus of the road. Our citizens
have subscribed quite literally to the stock
and the amount asked by the company will
be raised

The PR1soNERs.-A correspondent
writing from Fort klamath, speaks of the
principle Modoc prisoners and their place
of confinement as follows:
Eleven Modoc murderers occupy the
wooden cells on the ground floor of the
post guardhouse-Jim, Dave, Boston Char
ley, Nose, Pete, and Curly Headed Doc
tors son in the first; Capt Jack and Schon-
chin in the second Buckskin Doctor,
Curley Headed Doctor and Ike in the third;
every man in heavy shacklcs. The guard
house is a white building of pleasant exte-
rior and measures about thirty feet square
To front is a poarch that adds to the come
illness of the house and give it the air OF a
home for small family. The building IS
whitewashed inside and out. The cells IN
which the prisoners are confined are rooms
with gratings for light and air in the rear
and short distance from the ceiling
The doors open in each Instance into the
main room of the house, and are holeless.
The prisoners can see but little, and hear
nothing that trauspires outside their res
pective cells. The cells are light, clean,
aud furnish the requisite cubic feet of air
to each man. That is all that can be said
of the cells. The prisoners look bad
They hudGle together and make no noise
that can be heard two feet from the cell
doors. While Lieutenant Taylor of the
Fourth Artillery, the officer of the day,
was experimenting search of the prls-
oners this morning, | visited the house by
invitation and saw them Every captive
wore detected air, and some looked as If
death in any form would be welcomed as
a measure of relief Jack and Schonchin
though that the officer intended giving them
an airing and were highly disguised on
learning the object of his visit. Jack
grows thin, an so DO others of the band,
and Curlcy Headed Doctor is very sick
man. Three months in the guardhou3e
will probably serve to turn up Jack and
render funeral necessary. Indians rap
idly wear away when cooped up in build
ing and the Modocs form no exception to
