A REFRESHING CHANGE
To Plain English,

Every reader OF newspapers las observed
time. and again, in the advertising coiumhs'
many singular and frequently unprcnounc-
able names of medicinal remedies. The Greek
and Latin languages especially have been
drawn upon to furnish names by which
patent medicines could be Introduced to the
pub fc The inference is, in many cases at
least that their proprietors depend more
upon the attraction OF high sounding titles
than upon the essential merits OF the RENE
dies themselves.
1t IS refreshing once In a while to find A
medicine advertised, whose simple. infe lig1'
bic name in English at once conveys TO the
reader an understanding Of the uses and pur
poses OF the remedy.

The Gardiner TOWnsite.

1t is now stated that Ed. Stone, as
representing the Northern Pacific, has
secured the title to the townsite of
Gardiner, which has been so long in
dispute. Cutler or Buckskin Jim, who
was the adverse claimant, admits that
he has lost his claim, and says that
Ed. Stone has the patent to the land.
The people OF Gardiner are Informed
that the townsite is to be plated by
it's new owners and lots sold, and they
are strong in the hope that the Park
branch will be extended to the town
within a short time. The track is
graded to the townsite, and they con-
fidently expect to see the iron laid.
Despite the fact that Cinhabar is the
terminus of the branch, Gardiner has
it's position as the trading
centre for the upper country, and if
the road is extended to the tewn, will

A Curious Wedding.

A Pittsburg, Pa. dispatch OF Mon
day says: Patrick William O'Brlen,
the Irish giant, and Christina d. Dunz,
the German giantess, were married in
this city to-day. The ceremony was
performed in the German Evangelic
church, and was witnessed by an i'm
mense concourse of people, including
the mayor and council of Pittsburg,
the mayor of Allegheny, Jno. McCul-
loch, Margaret, the mother of the
Aztec dwaif, Indians and snake
charmer. Outside the church the
crowd gathered in such numbers as to
obstruct all traffic. in spite Of the
efforts of a large force of police.
O'Brien wore a full dress suit. The
medal presented to him by the Land
League ornamented his breast. The
bride wore an orange blossoms wreath,
and veil that covered superb dress
of white satin. In her hand she held
bouquet of enormous size. After.
the service the bridal party drove at
once to the museum and held a public
reception. The wedding cake is the
largest ever made, measuring nine feet
in circumference and three feet in
thickness. A giant loaf of bread, FIVE
five feet long, will decorate the table.
This was the first marriage of giants
in America and the second in the
world. The combined height Of the
bridal pair is fifteen feet three
inches, and they tip the beam at five
hundred and forty-nine pounds. The
wedding ring weighed seventeen ren-
nyweights and was FIVE inches in cir

THE CRIMES WHICH HARRISON THOMAS co
FEssEs.


A Jacksonville (Fla.) telegram says: A
few months ago two negroes named Har-
rIsou Thomas and Charles Belford obtain
ed employment near Apalachicola, Fla.
A. choppers In the lumber camp OF Jesse
Boynton. Boynton left the camp for few
days. and when he returned Bedford was
missing. Thomas protested ignorance as
10 bis whereabouts. A few weeks later a
bleschcd skeleton was discovered in a small
pond near the camp. Ii was identified rs
that OF Belford, Thomas's missing COM
panion.
The murderer's trial has Just been CON-
pleted. and furnishes one OF the most
astounding chapters in criminal history.
Thomas confessed that he dealt Bedford a
blow on the back OF the head with an axe,
nearly clesving the skull in twain. He
then hitched yoke OF oxen to the MUIR
dered mans body and dragged it into the
pond for the purpose OF concealing it,.
The two men had married sisters. and
Thomas thought that II he killed his bro
ther-iu-law both women would live with
him.
The most astounding part Of the confess
sion Is yet TO come, however. For years
the county had been the scene OF murders,
which were so mvsteriously executed that
their perpetrators were not detected.
Thomas story uncloaks them all. When
the prisoner was twelve years OF age his
mother left him one day in charge Of his
younger brother while she went to q neigh
boring plantation to work Vexed by the
ohid's persistent crying, Thomas beat out
its brains with a billet OF wood, and Gre
mated the body in an open fireplace on a
pile Of blazing logs.
When the mother returned and inquired
after the child's whereabouts the young
murderer pointed TO the charred remains
in the fireplace, and said ''There; he
bothered me, and | killed HIM and threw
him into the fire." The mother tainted,
but parental love saved the criminal by
hiding the crime. In 1871 Thomas COM
mitted felonious assault on a colcred girl
OF fourteen years, and after cutting her
throat with large-bladed pOcket-kniie
buried her body in the woods, where il re-
manned secreted until two years later.
when some woOdsmen crme across the
mound, and on digging it up found the
girls remains.
In 1873 Thomas literally cut Eroch Daw-
son, another colored man. into bits with
knife, and narrowly escaped hanging for
his crime. He was arrested and tried, but,
through the shrewdness Of his lawyer, was
acquitted by the jury. many OF whom were
negroes and were influenced by race pre-
iudice.
In 1873 he chopped OFT mans arm, and
though the victim is still living, Thomas
escaped punishment. For the murder of
Belford the criminal escapes with life
sentence to the chain gang, but his des-
perate nature makes 'he completion of the
sentence rather doubtful. as he will probs-
bly, effect an escape, unless be loses his
life in the attempt. The leuiency Of the
sentence excites unfavorable comment, and
a visit from Judge Lynch would not be
