The PRACTICE of indiscriminate
drugging can hardly be too severely
condemned. The effect of all such
amateur doctoring, is to unduly slim
ulate organs of the body for while,
after which they are left worse than
before. Relief for the lungs is Of a
different nature, and is always a gain,
by leaving them stronger for the rest
it gives. Why suffer the tired feelings,
the fever and irritability that every
form of lung and throat disease, how.
ever trivial, is sure to give when the
magic aid of HALLS BALsAM dispels
these miseries, and leaves one fresh
and free for the duties and delights OF
life? Sold everywhere. Price, 81 90

From the Daily Of March Is.
The big snow storm banked up the
Narrow Gauge yesterday so that
trains were unable to run between
Ames and Des Moines.
From a private letter dated at
Macon NO., we learn that the wife Of
DR.. J. f. Wilkinson died at TINT place
on the morning of March 18th, at
s o'clock.
Patsy Noonan is an "old sport IN
hard luck" lie has struck streaA
that does not seem profitable. Patsy
is shut up this morning, and from
now until the District Court sets will
have nothing to do but watch the
grew. incessant spiders spin the webs
that festoon the windows of the Hotel
de Spilman. Some days ago he was
arrested, charged with shooting at
some Of the inmates Of No. 1879, and
for that offence for two or three days
past has been undergoing trial. This
morning Esq. Riordan rendered his
decision, which was that Patsy should
answer in the sum of 81 600 to Judge
Knapp's Court. The verdict was no
sooner rendered in Riordan's Court
than he was again waltzed up before
the Mayors Court and arraigned on
the charge OF resisting an officer.
He waivered an examination and was
also held over ON that account.
We yesterday mentioned case of
cruelty to q dumb animal which came
before our notice on Thursday eve
ming. Since then we have learned
further particulars and find that
neither the agent here, nor the driver
are in the least to blame for the affair.
The managers of the Company were
notified months ago that the horse
was subject to and had had several
fits, and that another was wanted in
his place, but the request was not at
tended to until the day before the
horse died. On that day-a new team
came by rail, but as they were from a
much warmer climate that this, the
driver was afraid to bring them out
in the severe storm Of Thursday. But
it was the intention to lay the unsonnd
horse off of work on Friday. Mr..
Ward had been driving the horse that
died for years, and no man could
have felt worse than he did when the
poor old fellow laid down and died.
