Cure for Writer'S Cramp.

Writer'S cramp Is an affection which,
until very recent date. has been looked
upon as in most cases incurable. Fort
unately, however, for those who suffer
from this disease. means are now known
to exist not only for its amelioration,
but for its permanent cure. The diff
Guilty is one which is not, as its name
implies, confined to writers. 1t may
occur in any individual whose occupa-
tion brings into constant play one set OF
muscles; thus, the pianist the teleg
rapher, and the ballet-dancer may suf
fer from these cramps or from an inabil
ity to perform the acts peculiar to hi.
occupation.
The cramps are merely symptoms Of q
diseased condition. the exact seat OF
which is a matter of dispute; some To-
eating it in the brain, others in the
spinal cord, while there are those who
regard the nerve-centers as in no wise
affected, but trace the source of the af-
fection to the nerves themselves. The
method of treatment which has been
found most successful consists in the
application of gymnastics, combined
with massage, to the affected muscles.
The rubbing, and sometimes a gentle
striking of the muscles with a wooden
bar, together with regular movements
of the fingers or other defective part.
are continued for several weeks, during
which time not more than one hour
daily is devoted to these exercises.

Seven Devils Mining District.

On his return from a recent t1ip to
Boise, c. c. Mccoy fell in with party
just out from the above named district,
which is about IS miles southwest from
Warrens, in the Salmon river range of
mountains. The camp was struck about
two years ago, but development has only
begun recently. On one mine there is IA
shaft DOWN forty feet through solid cop
per ore carrying silver. The ledge is 30
feet wide and was recently bought by
mining capitalists, one of whom is Mr.
j. o. Brisco, cousin Of Mrs. Mccoy of
this city. There are number of prom.
ising mines in the district. The capita
lists who have invested there propose to
have a railroad run to the district from
the Short Line, about eighty miles, If
they have to build it themselves. A
party of surveyors are already running a
preliminary line up the Wciser, with the
evident design of tapping the valley of
the Columbia by route that will avoid
the formidable Snake river canyons.

better route than the Northern Pacific

Ian suggest that the route via Lo Lo is
the one for them to 90 through the
Bitter Root mountains Possibly that
may be the route they will take, We have
no objections. The Northern Pacific
people claim that is the only low pass of
the Bitter Root south of the Pen de

5000 feet above sea level. We have
reports from several passes south Of the
Lo Lo that are less than 5000 feet above

Special to the Globe.
WELLS, Mimi, Jan. 2l.-The village of
Wells, containing about l.600 population,
was founded fifteen years ago this fall by
Hon. Clark w. Thompson, lately deceased.
At that time Clark w. possessed several
thousand acres of land at this point, was
practically the originator aud builder Of the
Southern Minnesota railway from Lacrosse
to Wells. besides possessing an I'M
limited Imagination and discounting
the future at an usurious rate.
But, while Clark Thompson originated
many visionary schemes, that resulted in
no practical value TO himself yet it cannot
be denied but what his efforts were instru-
mental in advancing the settlement of
Southern Minnesota several years before it
otherwise would have been.

believed in living and let live" and that
money made the mare 90" When he
recorded the plat of tn village. he realized
that the bOundless, treeless and uninhab-
tied prairie stretching for miles in either
direction must be settled before his expecta-
tons could be realized. He established the
railway company's machine shops here en-
plOyed a large force OF mechanics,
built handsome cheese factory.
built twenty commodious brick houses upon
various portions of his domain. and en-
deavored to infuse the same spirit in Others.
The consequences resulting were to make
the name of Wells Familiarity known as a
busy, bustling, prosperous town, and to-
day it bears that character. Wells is not
only division headquarters for the main
line of the Southern Minnesota, but is
