with promises of prosperous season as
soon as the new smelter arrives.
VIM. Hubord, who has been in this
vicinity for several months past, left on
the Helena coach this morning on Lis
way to Mexico. He has been waiting
all this time for the reservation to open.
The mail service on the route be-
tween Ubet, Maiden and Fort Maginnis
has been increased from threeatimes a
week to six times. This is what the
people in that section have been praying
for and we are glad that their prayers
have been answered.
Messrs. Williamson and Watts, who
brought in Antelope Shirt, say that a
large number of the horses stolen by the
Piegans in Wyoming are in the vicinity
of the agency. Boomerang has seen
most of the horses belonging to him but
is unable to get them, and other horses
to the number of forty-six known to
have been stolen on that raid are still in
the hands of the Indians.
An interesting suit, d. G. Browne vs..
Jas. McDevitt, was tried IN the probate
court. The case involved some fine
points of law and was ably argued by
Col Donnelly for the plaintiff and H.
G. McIntire for the defendant The
action is replevin suit to recover a
phaeton and set of harness claimed by
the defendent as the property of w. S.
Wetzel, held by the defendent, as sheriff,
in the suit of E. M. Milner & Co VS.. w.
S. Wetzel. The court took the matter
under advisement.

Knocked Out by Disease.

The most vigorous and adamantine endurance can
not hold out unaided against climatic and other in
Huences prejudcial to health. No can persist
emily breathe ytiated miasmatc air, eat unwhole
some food indulge in excess, or toil increasingly
without eventually falling prey to disease. One OF
the surest preyentves against it is Hostetters Stom
ach Bitters But potent this auxiliary to health is
it would be preposterous to expect it to maintain
sanitary condition of the system if they who seek its
aid wilfully abandon every other precauton against
disease and thus thwar it's operation. Sobriety, the
avoidance of exciting cause, important elements
in health maintenance. regard being had to these,
system fortified by the Bitters will be exempt from
malaria, rheumatism, dyspepsia, constipation and
other maladies.

FORT AssINABoINE, March 10, 1885
Editors of the River Press:
The dramatic club, composed of Off
GERS and ladies of the post, gave their
last performance this season on the 4th.
"Our Boys" was played. The hall was
packed, as usual, and the play enjoyed
by all.
The Assinaboine Minstrels gave their
last performance on the 6ths which was
acknowledged by all as one of the best
shows they ever gave. Messrs. Harris
and Mendenhall, as end men, kept the
house in a roar with their jokes. The
songs also were we'll received.
The weather has broken at last, and
we hope it will stay so. The companies
are very busy cleaning the garrison after
the hard winter.
The benefit given by the Assinaboine
Minstrels some time ago was for Mr..
Michael Kelly, the post blacksmith, not
Mr.. Timothy Kelly.
Things in general are a little lively
now, as the warm season has shown
up. We are all like ground hogs-came
out and saw our own shadow and went
back.
Some of the western boys have found
out new way to make horse fat-by
giving him nothing to eat. M.

Botkin's Hard Lines.

WASHINGTON, March 6.--Marshal
Botkin's tenure of office is again in I'M
minent danger. Having escaped the
scylla of removal by the republican adj
ministration, he is now tossed and rent
by the Charybdis Of the democratic
powers that be. Montana democrats
want the place. Charles Curtis of Hell
ena and Jack Healy of Benton are both
said TO be popular and capable men.
Ex-Delegate Maginnis and the new
delegate, Toole, are claimed to both
have a man, and both are pressing their
candidates with an energy likely to pro-
duce result during the special session
of the senate. Theonly thing that stood
in the way Of Kreidler's confirmation
was the objections Of Senator Cameron
of Wisconsin, who said he did not care
so much about helping Botkin as he did
to Illustrate J. Schuyler Crosby, late gov
ernor and present assistant postmaster
general. Mr.. Crosby took occasion to
demonstrate with Mr.. Cameron on the
formal opposition first made by the
senators, and so angered him that he
then fought for Botkin with all the
strength he could throw into the surug-
gle. Before this interview with Crosby
Cameron had no expectation of defeat
ing Kreidler's confirmation, and had
said that after the proper and formal
defense Of Botkin he should quietly
withdraw and let Kreidler have the
place. To Crosby more tnan any other
cause Mr.. KreidIer owes his defeat.
The democratic nominee for Botkin's
place will not be opposed by the Wis
consin. senators. and will be promptly
confirmed.

The Newest Northwest.

The Northwest territory of the Do
minion of Canada contains, in the four
districts into which it is divided, 43l 900
square miles, capable of supporting a
population of 30,0OO,0OO. The whole
population does not now exceed 10000
at liberal estimate. The advocates of
local selfgovernment in the Northwest
cites the fact that when Manitoba was
given autonomy it had less than 10000
inhabitants, while British Columbia had
less than $4,000. There seems to be
such all earnest desire on the part of the
people to manage their own local affairs,
and get rid of Ottawa dictation, that
they will make matters very uncomfort-
abel for the central government if they
do not get what they want soon.

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
a. Noble Red Man Kills His SQuaw and
Then Blows His Brains Out,

An Indian named Bull, while on his
way from Fort Belknap to Fort Assina-
boine, on the 9th inst, accompanied by
his squaw, and when within about two
miles of the post. drove his squaw into
the brush and shot her dead. After
committing the deed he kept on toward
the post. He told an Indian boy at Sam
Pepin's camp what he had done and
then started back to where the squaw
was lying. Seeing Jack Brown, the
government guide and scout, and prob
ably thinking he would be arrested, the
Indian ran few yards, sat down, and
putting the muzzle of his gun to his
forehead blew his brains out. Brown
had heard the first shot, but thought
nothing of it, supposing an Indian was
shooting at game; but when he saw the
Indian shoot himself he knew some
thing was wrong and searched in the
brush and found the dead squaW. 1t is
supposed that the squaw had money
and would not give it to him, for which
he killed her. Brown was out looking
for horses when the shooting was done.
1t is something unusual and remark
able for an Indian to commit suicide.
From all that can be learned there are
but few instances known where the red
man has taken his own life, probably
regarding it as bad medicine to do so
but in this case it will no doubt be re-
garded as good medicine.

covered as to be out again.
Lumber trade has opened brisk

Col. j. II. French came up last

Farmers along the line are planting

busy.
White county is still sending emil

points.
Miss Emma Stubblefield, of Viola,
went to Beams Creek last Monday to
visit friends, and will remain several

Our old friend, VIM. Ferris, now of
Sparta, passed down the line Thurs

Mr.. 1. White, a merchant of Sparta,
made an assignment last Monday.
This action was a surprise, as he was
considered all right.
DR.. Ransom, the proprietor of Crisp
Springs, came up last Saturday, ac-
companied by a gentleman who
wishes to purchase the Springs.
1t is rumored at Morrison that Ike
st. John, of Viola, is soon to wed one

it to be correct.
Mrs. ]. N. Hopkins, wife of the ex-
press messenger on the road, came
down from Sparta last Tuesday to
spend a few days at home with the
old folks.

misfortune to lose two of his sons this

Sunday at noon with a congestive
chill, which lasted several hours and
ended in death. The other died Tues.
day of fever, about fifreen minutes
after the corpse of his brother had
been carried from the house. Mr.
Fletcher and family have the sympa.
thy of all their friends in their sad
affliction.

The wild phantoms and shrieking cries of
worthless humbug can make money by i'm
dosing upon the credulity and ignorance of
an honest public, and the supply of this
species of work seems more than adequate
to the demand.
The enupciation of facts-facts that have
stood crucial tests-facts proven by brain
force and tangible evidence, should satisfy
all laudable enterprises; but the execrable
habit of teaching false ideas and doctrines
for self ACKNOWLEDGEMENT is truly reprehensi.
BILE, and should be scorned by all classes.
When we tell the public that B. B. B., the
great Blood Poison Remedy, contains Iodide
of Potash as one OF its ingredients, and when
we, as old members of the medical piofes-
sion, say that Iodide of Potash is not poi
son, we think it very presumptive for men
outside of the profession to asser that it is
poison. The facts do not warrant such a
conclusion, and if those who make the as
sertion that Potash is a poison do not know
better, they are a set of unenviable igno.
ramuses.
As solid foundation of heavy masonry
has been built for B. B. B., upon which it is
now proudly perched-the broken arches
and fallen columns of brazen humbugs will
soon be in search of fresh ''cOck and bull"
stories and more printerS'ink, but merit can.
not be downed. Although B. B. B. is only
a year DID, yet its effect-its magical and
peerless power over all blood, skin and
kidney diseases, has been indelibly enstamp-
ed upon the tablets of the money of thou.
sands here at home, who have been cured
after having used hundreds of bottles of
other remedies.
Compared to other remedies, B. B. B. is
the radiant sunbeam of midday, filming its
glittering glare to saddened hearts, while
others are pale mOonbeams, pushing along
through misty meshes of darkness in search
of something they can cure.
1t cures Blood Diseses and Catarrh, uld
Ulcers, Scrofula, Rheumatism, skin Dis.
eases, Kidney troubles etc; and we hold a
32-page book full of vidence-AtlantA
eyidence-that cannot be doubted, proving
all we claim. Our certificates are not phau-
tasmagorical, nor far-fetched. Int are yoluu.

To the Pupils of Our Schools.

In my boyhood days, the following
very curious problem was published
in several Of the papers of that time.
Many people said that there was an
error in it, and that the chaplain of
the vessel had made a mistake in his
record. The chaplain and several of
the crew certified that the record was
correctly kept, and they called upon
the teachers to explain how there
could be six Sundays in February.
Here is the problem: A ship Of
war sailed from Baltimore in May
1923, and made her way directly to
the west coast of Africa. Having re-
manned Il few days at MOnrovia, she
sailed southwark, rounded the Cape
Of Good hope, and proceeded directly
to the Bland of Tasmania, or Van
Dieman's Land, as it was then call
ed. She continued her eastward
course, passed through Cook Strait,
and finally landed at Valparaiso.
She then sailed southwark, rounded
Cape Horn, and finally returned to
Baltimore in the spring of 1894. The
chaplain held religious services every
Sabbath during the voyage. His
diary shows that he held services on
four Sabbaths in Janury, and six
Sabbaths in February.
Tell us how this can be. If l get
no explanation in ten days, 1 will
explain in two weeks.
