STRENGTH

to vigorously push a business,
strength to study a profession,
strength to regulate a household,
strength to do a days labor with
out physical pain. All this repre-
sents what is wanted, in the often
heard expression, "oh! wish i
had the strength" If you are
broken down, have not energy, or
feel as if life was hardly worth Iiv-
ing, you can be relieved and re.
stored to robust health and strength
by taking 0 IRON BIT
TIERS, which is a true tonic-a
medicine universally recommended
for all wasting diseases.

HALEY, Idaho, Aug. Considerable
excitement exists in this city over the
report which appeared in last evenings
Wood River Times that a
party of COW boys had started
for Yellowstone Park to kidnap President
Arthur, and Sheriff Farey has detailed two
trustworthy deputies to look the matter up
with instructions to summon strong
posse and arrest the kidnappers if the
facts are as stated.
The Times says that during the past
two weeks number Of strangers, all well
provided with good riding animals and
fire arms and resembling a party of regu-
lars or Texas COW boys, have been camped
on Willow creek, and considerable curiosity
has been expressed as to the intentions of
the party, some accounting for their outfit
as party organized to go up the Indian
country for prospecting trip, while others
believed them a band of Arizona rustlers.
for ransom are conducted.
During several days past some of the
party have ridden through town in def
ant manner and mysteriously disappeared.
From a man who came in to-day it is
learned that the party who induced him to
join them and made him take certain
pledges of secrecy were organized to pro-
ceed to Yellowstone park. They left last
night, going on the stage road. and es-
capped during the night The object of
the expedition is to corral and capture
President Arthur and party and to spirit
them away into the mountains and caves,
where they will be fed but kept prisoners
while members of the party act as pick
cts to prevent being surprised
and captured while negotiations
The captain or leader of the party has
an idea that heavy ransom will be Of
fered by the United States and personal
friends of the president after search for
the presidents party shall be given up
and that 100000 can thus be extorted
from the secret service fund and divided
among the party on the principle adopted
by Italian banditti.
The escaped member of the party says
there are sixty-fve men in the outfit and
some of them were guerrillas in the late
war, and five were Shoshone and Banack
Indians, who go along as guides and scouts
who are armed with repeating rifles,
etc. The leader is Texan
desperate on whose head price has been
set, and with the exception of two Italians
who left the railroad graders the others of
the party are cowboys.

main the same as heretofore by all the
