a New Counterfeit.

Anew counterfeit half dollar Is In circula
ton. II bears date Of 1873. and II pronounced
by the Sub-Treasurer the best silver counter
felt ever seen. II is beautifully made and
has slight appearance Of iron, which IN Of
ten found in genuine silver dollar. It !.
silver plated, and acid does not touch II I'M
less the surface Is scratched up. The weigh
is the marvellous point in the deception. TIL.
counterfeit, A. IL stands, would pass in size
easily, aud in weight could not be detected OF
any but fine scale.

Old John Brown was hanged at Charles
town, Virginia, twenty-five years ago to-day
but his soul goes marching on. His trial
forms great contrast to that at present in
progress in Washington. He took possession
Of Harper's Ferry October 16, 1859. On the
18th he was captured after having received
a sabre stroke and two baYonet wounds. Oc-
tobcr 9th he was brought to trial, "his re-
quest for brief delay on the ground that he
was physically and mentally unable to pro-
coed with his trial, and that he wished to
confer with counsel of his own choice in
stead of those assigned to him by the court,
having been denied" During his trial he
lay upon cot, being too feeble to stand or
even sit. October 31st he was found guilty
on all the counts in the Indictment, and No
vember LIST he was sentenced to be hanged
December I'd, which sentence was duly car
ried out.

The symptoms Of smallpox are fever and
chills, followed by heat and by d"yness of
skin, hard and frequent pulse, pains 10 the
stomach and back, with nausea. vomiting
and headache. In severe cases this is some
times accompanied with delirium and con-
vulsions. Eruption almosC always begins on
the third dav of The fever. As a rule the
eruptions appear first on The face, then en-
the neck, weiss and body, and lastly on the
lower extremines, continuing into the fifth
day. The pimples begin on the eighth day.

THE SMALLPOX,
No Further Spread OF the Disease.

Up TO this writing there has been no spread
Of the smallpox in Deer Lodge. On Wednes-
day evening of this week Miss May Man.
ming, VIII, was one OF the family that visited
and was exposed TO the disease at Divide.
died at her home some two or three miles
from Deer Lodge, and was buried near their
home on Thursday. Her mother, Mrs. Chas.
ii. Manning, has had the disease in milder
form, and Mr.. Manning has not taken it at
all. The parents, we are informed, were vac
cinated IN childhood. Medical attendance
was rendered last week but not accepted I'M
I'll Saturday, when DR.. L. H. Terry accepted

When a Location Can ee Relocated.

As many locators of claims ale in doubt as
to when the annual assessment work must be
done, the Gold Hill Nc,cs furnishes the fol
lowing important information:
A miner making q location this year has
until January |, 1888, to perform the neces-
sary labor, and the claim can rot be jumped
and held before that time. 1t is untrue that
tho jumping season dates from the Local
ton Of the claim, or in other words, that il
mine Is located on the 9th Of October,
1881, i can BE- jumped on The 9th of octs-
Der, 1882, II it has not received the assess
msnt work. The law was made TO protect
the poor man. A miner without means, To-
eating valuable claim on the 31st Of ner,
December, could hardly perform 500 wortl
q labsr before the morning Of January i
1852 The = Jumper must wait until Jan.
nary |. 1883.
