ToRAL are magical. and multitudes are an
nually preserved from serious illness by its
timely and faithful use. 1t should be kept
at hand in every household for the pro-
lection it affords in sudden attacks. In
there is no other remedy 50 efficacious,
soothing, and helpful.
Low prices are inducements to try some of
the many mixtures, or syrups, made OF cheap
and ineffective ingredients, now offered,
which, as they contain no curative qualities,
can afford only temporary relief, and are
sure to deceive and disappoint the patient.
Diseases of the throat and lungs demand
active and effective treatment; and it is dan
gerous experimenting with unknown and
cheap medicines, from the great liability that
these diseases may, while so trif1ed with,
become deeply seated or incurable. Use
AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL, and You may
confidently expect the best results. 1t is
standard medical preparation, of known and
acknowledged curative power, and is as
cheap as its careful preparation and fine
knowing its composition, prescribe it in their
practice. The test of half a century has
proven its absolute certainty to cure all pull
monary complaints not already beyond the
reach of human aid.

a Holiday Edition.

During holiday week the RIVER Press
will issue an enlarged and extra edition de-
voted entirely to the interests of Benton and
the country tributary. 1t will consist Of ten
or twelve pages Of carefully prepared matter,
with special reference to the resources Of
Choteau county also q review Of the growth
and business of Benton. The paper should
have q wide circulation and we hope that all
having an interest in the progress Of our
town will subscribe for q number Of extra
copies to send to friends East. We shall
print several hundred extra papers and every
one Of them should find their way East,
where so little is known Of the resources of
Northern Montana. Articles from the pens
of some Of the best writer's in the county will
be published and 40 pains spared to render
it an attractive number of the RIVER Pass.
We hope our friends from the country will
leave orders at this Office for the number of
extra copies they van for distribution So
that we can guess better at the size Of the
edition needed.

A New Cemetery.

A meeting Of a large number Of our prom
inent citizens was held at Judge Tattan's Of
fee on Monday evening to take action in
reference to establishing a new cemetery.
Ten acres for that purpose has been entered
on the hill north of the city about a mile and
a half. A committee was appointed to have
it surveyed and plated, and before long the
metes and bonnds of the new city Of the
dead will be marked out. It is proposed to
divide the new ground into four or five di-
visions, setting apart each for the Odd Eel
lows, Masons, Catholics, Episcopalians..and
other denominations and also to reserve q
ssPotter's field or q place to lay to rest those
who are buried by the county. The bodies
inferred in the old cemetery will be removed
to the new and in due timeit will be neatly
fenced and otherwise beautifed. The loca-
ton is good and we hope the gentlemen
interested will improve the new burial place
as rapidly as possible; not neglecting at the
first approach Of spring to set out numerous
trees and shrubs.

An act of the last Legislature defining GER
tain nuisances was not published correctly at
first, but appears as it should in the Revised
Statute, recently issued. The section in ques-
ton is as follows:
SEC. 1. That every person who shall,
within the exterior limits of any un;ncorpor-
ated town or village Of the Territory Of Mon
tana, place and keep large quantitiesof wood,
hay, straw, powder or other combustible or
explosive materials, 50 IS to endanger the
dwelling houses, or other buildings in the.
neighborhood from fire, shall be deemed
guilty of establishing or keeping and main
tanning 8 public nuisance, and shall upon
conviction thereof before any court Of COM
petent jurisdiction be fined in any sum not
exceeding one hundred dollars.
AS first published in the Independent the
section read so as to apply to incorporated
towns only instead of u~nincorporated towns.
It is important that the public should under
stand the facts.

Sudden Death.

Last Wednesday evening VIM. Preston, an
old resident, was walking past the Overland
Hotel in company with R. E. Mills, when he
suddenly exclaimed, .'Catch me, Bob; I'm
blind. = and fell to the sidewalk. He was
carried into his saloon, near by, and medical
assistance summoned, but the physicians
were powerless to save, and after lingering
until about half-past ten he passed away.
Some nisease of the heart was the cause Of
his death. The funeral took place Friday.

Mr.. j.. A. Riner, of this city, re-
turned yesterday afternoon from Den
yer, accompanied by his estimable bride
in the person of Miss May Jillich, for
merly of this city, but recently of Den
yer, where her parents reside.
The wedding ceremony occ urred
Tuesday afternoon at 2 O'Clock, a. the
residence of the BRIDES parents, No.
173 Kansas avenue; and there were
present a few invited friends in Den
yer and Mr.. and Mrs. T. F. Durbin Of
this city. The ceremony was performed
by DR.. Hays of the Central Presby-
terrain church OF Denver.
There were many beautiful and valu-
able presents, but the most interesting
Of all was a silver tea sett presented to
the bride by the Chinese students OF her
class in Sunday school, of whom she
was a much loved teacher.
Mr.. Riner and his bride departed the
same afternoon on the afternoon train
TO Longmont, from whence the party
came yesterday to their future home
this city-where the groom has a very
pleasantly located house ready for the
reception of self and wife.
Mrs. Riner's return to this city viii
be a most welcome one, for she has a
host of warm friends in Cheyenne, who
congratulate Mr.. Riner upon his envi.
able good fortune.

This gentleman, who has been NOM
mated and confirmed as the successor
Of Postmaster General James, was
born in Maine, in 1915, and emigrated
west when he was thirty years of age.
He is "a stalwart among stalwarts,"
as the saying goes, and has always been
an active and discerning politician.
He has served three terms in the sem
ate, the last expiring in 1879; and IN
his association in the republican party
has been a close and confidential friend
of Senator Conkling. Before the close
Of bis last senatorial term, he distin-
guished himself by a very severe attack
upon the southern policy of the admin
~istration of President Hayes, which
commanded a good deal of attention at
the period. As a lawyer, he is a gen.
tleman of great experience and con-
summate knowledge. He has spent
his whole life in the profession, and
was for several years a Judge of the su-
preme court of Wisconsin.

In spite Of a cold and stormy night
our Cheyenne zephyr" making liter.
ally, a clean sweep of the streets, the
theater held a large audience to greet
the first appearance in this city this
season of ~Saulsbury's Troubadours, in
that sparkling and vivacious of all ex-
travaganzas, the Brook.
For a few moY65ets after the rise of
the curtain the adfence did not seem to
catch the drift of the play, and hardly
knew whether to laugh or not; this
hesitency was soon dispelled and thence
throughout the evening was a c~ontinu-
GUS efferverscence of mirth frequently
breaking out into a more violent ebulli.
ton Of applause.
AS for plot there is none, properly
speaking, as the piece represents the
haps, miss haps and fun of a number
of members of the opera in the country
by themselves bent on having a good
time. In this they succeed fully and
the audience Ego halvers" with them.
The run Of the piece gives ample OPP
p%ortunity for special work and music
which is fully taken advantage of.
Nellie McHenry captivated the audi.
ence by her happy-go-lucky cuteness
and Miss Samuels won applause by
her excellent singing. Mr.. Salisbury
brought down the house with his i'm.
presentations, while in many ears ever
now is humming ''squire-M -iar, .
