SPECIAL NOTICES.

Cut This out-It May Save Your Life.
There is no person living but what
suffers more or less with Lung Disease,
Coughs, Colds or Consumption, yet
some would die rather than pay IS cents
for a bottle Of medicine that would cure
them. DR.. A. Boschee's German Syrup
has lately been introduced in this coun-
try from Germany, and its wondrous
cures astonish every one that tries it.
If you doubt what we say in print, cut
this out and take it to your druggists,
Addoms & Glover, and get a sample
bottle for 10 cents and try it, or a regu-
lar size for IS cents. j~an6-deow3m

For more than a year past, says the
Denver Times, the Kansas Pacific rail-
road company has suffered from depre-
dations upon the freight passing v e
their line. The articles taken were of
such a character that 1t was evident
that more than one thief was engaged
In the work, and as there appeared to
be something Of q system in their man.
ner Of work, it was strongly suspected
that an organized gang we're engaged.
As the pile of reports of missing articles
accumulated at the company's Office,
the conviction became almost a GER
tainty that the stealing was done at or
neal Carson, Colorado, at which point
Is the junction Of the Arkansas Valley
branch with the main line. The mat
ter was placed in the hands Of the
Rocky Mountain Detective association,
and about three weeks since a deputy
sheriff went down to Carson to work up
the case. He had not been there many
hours before becoming convinced that
they had struck the right spot. The
men, growing bold with success, were
negligent, and on one of their trips, the
detectives came upon the spot where a
large quantity Of the stolen goods had
been concealed. Having made this
discovery, the sheriff returned to Dem
yer, leaving q man to fix the identity
Of the culprits. As the sheriff got on
the cars at Carson he noticed one man
whomhe felt sure was one of the guilty
parties. He kept the man constantly
in view, and when the train reached
Denver followed him until he had pro-
ceeded some distance from the depot,
when he took him into custody. The
man made a clean breast Of his connec-
tion with the gang. He gave his nam
as Frank E. Williamson, and explained
that he had severed his connection
with his companions from a fear of
detection, as they were getting entirely
too bold, and that he had intended
leaving this part of Uncle Sans do
minions as soon as possible. Wednesday
evening a special train took a deputy
sheriff with a posse to Carson, reaching
there shortly before daylight Thursday
morning.
The posse secured the arrest of
William Kelley, Worth Keene, Mike
Fitzpatrick, William Tally, Thos. Ros-
baugh, j. Ratlief, c. W. Lindsey, alias
"Texas Bill" and Pat Stanley. They
were taken just before sunrise.
The property stolen amounts to a
large sum in the aggregate, and con
sists Of almost everything in the way of
freight. Nothing seems to have been
despised that could be used or turned
into cash by the thieves, from cases of
matches to cases of shoes. Nothing
has been missed from the cars at other
points, and 1t is believed that the arrest
of the gang has entirely broken up the
system Of thievery from which the
company has been such heavy loser.

sparkling rosy Michigan apple, and a
hot mince pie, and a hot Scotch, and a
merry exclamation of silver bells, and
a pink-nosed girl, just cold enough to
want an arm around her waist?

On Thursday night last a somewhat
funny pugilistic encounter took place on
18th street between a soldier and two
females. The latter, while passing
along the street, were accosted by an
inebriated soldier, who undertook to
embrace one Of them, who thereupon
struck him, the other meanwhile stand
ing back and laughing. This was too
much for the soldier, and he started for
female Nc. 2, who drew back and gave
him a blow on the nose, which caused
the blood to flow freely. A colored
man then rushed upon the scene, and
after a liberal application of his foot,
succeeded in inducing the soldier to
vamose.

How to Make a Cheap and Powerful DisIn-
inctant.

IeCtant.
Dissolve half a drachm of nitrate of
lead in a pint Of boiling water; now
dissolve two drachms Of common salt in
a bucket of water; when both are dis
solved pour the two mixtures together,
and when the sediment has settled you
have a pail full Of clear fluid, which is
a saturated solution of the chloride of
lead. A cloth saturated with the
liquid and hung up in a room will at
ono sweeten a fetid atmosphere.
Poured down a sink, water-closet Or
drain, or on any decaying mass, 1t will
produce the same result. The nitrate
of lead is very cheap, and a pound Of it
would make several barrels of the dis
infectant. The salt which furnishes
the chlorine would not cost more than
the water.

A tramp was arrested in Laramie
last week, taken before a magistrate,
and sentenced for three months. The
justice, in explaining the sentence,
remarked that while there was no evil
dence that the prisoner had been guilty
of any crime, he thought it prudent to
commit him, as he had the wild, hag-
gard look of a man about to start a
newspaper.

Tho Chances for Acquiring Claims

In the Black Hills form a question or
interest to the intending immigrant.
But u very small portion of the Black
Hills has been p~rospected, and conse-
Quently but little is yet absolutely
known Of them, speaking with refer
ence to their entire extent. Through
out the entire mineral belt the charac-
teristics of the surface rock indicate a
similar geological age, a peculiar age
of schists, mica, and talcose states sig
nificant to the miner. 1t is a reasona-
BILE inference from what is known that
new discoveries likely to be as impor-
tant as any yet made will follow their
further exploitation. 1t may be stated
with certainty that the opportunities
for prospecting and locating new gold
quartz lodes are indefinitely numerous.
AS to gulch mining, what are now UNI
derstood to be the best discovered pay
ing gulches are staked and claimed.
Even on them there will be advanta-
geous opportunities to acquire proper
ties by purchase, especially under the
influence of the excitement of new dis
coveries. On the creeks and gulches of
lesser reputation properties nc doubt
valuable, often richly so, in some cases,
have been and will be abandoned by
their owners, in others may be bought
for comparatively trifing sums. And
new discoveries of rich placer diggings
are probable occurrences. The situa-
ton may be summed up tc present OPP
poitunities indefinitely numerous for To-
eating rich lodes, and fair chances for
getting hold of valuable placers. In the
main, these observations apply to ex-
perienced miners and to prudent, dis
corning men with more or less capital.
To those who go there without expert
ence, or capital by which to avail them
selves of the experience of others, the
situation will be found to be not very
different from what it has always been
in all new mining countries. For such
men there are chances, more remote, it
is true, but often in the end quite as
certain. They depend, however, as a
rule, on the character Of the men. An
industrious, resolute, and observing
man will be assured of good pay for his
time and labor, and in the succession of
opportunities his rapidly acquired expe-
rience will enable him to profit. The
Black Hills is a good country, but Of
themselves men must be their own
judges.
