The PhysiOlogN of the LIVER,

The liver is the largest seereting organ in the
human body, and the bile which 1t secretes is more
liable to vitiation and misdirection from its proper
channels than any other Of the animal fluids.
Luckily for the bilious, however there is AN un-
falling source Of relief for liver complaint namely

over squarter Of century has been achieving
thorough cures Of the mentioned ailments, fever
and ague, dyspepsia, bowel complaints rheumatic
and kidney affection, and disorders involving loss
Of nervous vigor, II il, moreover, preventive Of
malarial disease, am affords protection to thou.
where that dire scourge Is prevalent. As q remedy
adapted TO the medicinal requirements Of families,
IL Is ssupremey desirable, and as mesns Of fortify-
ing debiitated system ii is thoroughly to be de-
pended upon.

A gentleman who was present at
the Interview given our reporter by
Ed. Brown, the man who shot and
Killed John T0ohey is of the impress
sion that we reported Brown erron-
eously in stating that he knew or dis
covered that Toohey was dead when
he fell behind the counter. According
to his recollection, Brown stated that
he was not aware that Toohey was
dead, and that he went 20 neighbor-
ing ranchman, told him the circum-
stances of the shooting and requested
him to see Toohey and try and settle
the quarrel ~ he Brown desired to
pass Toohey's place returning home
that night, and was fearful OF being
attacked 10y Toohey. 1t was not until
the return of this man that Brown
was apprised Of the fact that Toohey
was dead Another error is made in
our report in the statement that
''"' 30 I" w" IVY III Nle tllInpN bi
Zook * Alderson. He is a neighbor
and friend of theirs but has ranch of
his own and Is engaged in breeding
Short Horns. As Browns statement
To our reporter was taken i'm lung
hand, and hurriedly, errors were pos
sible, and although these are arpa-
rently trivial, correction il freely
made in order that Brown, who is
alike prisoner and prosecuting wit
ness, may not be wrongly represented.
The proceedings of the inquest, which
we hope to publish tomorrow, will
undoubtedly throw considerable light
on this unfortunate affair.

The Minstrels.

Barlow, Wilson & Rankin's min
strels opened last night to the largest
audience ever gathered together in the
territory. Ming's opera house was lit
orally packed TO the ceiling, 'stand-
ing room only" was the order, and
stand they did all along the aisles
clear back to the door. About $50
were turned away, the receipts rum
ming 5000.
The programme offered was the best
ever arranged and was fully carried
out, the burlesque on the Mikado, en-
titled "Mikey Doo." proving the most
original aud best afterpiece on the
stage, while the rendition of the
choruses and the local hits brought
down the house.
George Wilson was as funny n ever
and as usual he was recalled Till lie
was tired, winding up with II speech
that had some originality about IL.
Eddy Fox put the house in an ex-
cellent humor with his violin imita-
tions, while the LeDton brothers are
without exception the best acrobats
that ever appeared in the northwest.

land their cargoes at head dwaters.
The steamer Judith, which reached
her port Of destination from Bismarck
yesterday, ligbtened up to the extent
of 100 tons below Benton. Down river
shipments, 1t is believed, are not i'm
mediately menaced, although the ex-
ceptional "dry spell'' in the moun-
tains Is lowering the river much
earlier and more rapidly than
usual. Other boats, il is expected,
will get through to Benton from below
but with divided cargoes, involving
double trips in the upper river section.
The wool clip of Montana finds its
natural outlet by the Missouri, and 1t
Is matter of no small anxiety that
the cargoes in stores and accumulat-

shippers. For the Benton bouts il is
claimed they can navigate on dew of

Ed. TINES Two years ago, in company
with a number of my friends, l employed a
number of men TO do some work for US on
large estate, owned in common. AS we had
work of our own TO attend TO, we allowed
them unlimited use Of men and money, only
laying down rules by which they were to be
governed. Recently, learning that these
rules were being violated, called attention
to the fact, expecting that our hired men
would explain. Instead of this, l learn
they are rulers, and one Of them, an ILL
naturcd fellow, whose education seems 10

guage and says,my assertion is a "maici

A Terrible Accident,

Says the Pioche Reeoyd OF last Saturday:
We learn from teamsier OF the following
accident that happened to miner a week
ago last Thursday, who was working in the
mines of Star District. 1t appears that the
injured man, David Reese, while preparing
to load a hole, held in one Of his hands a
couple OF giant powder caps, and in the
other a box of caps and lighted candle.
piece of The wick from the candle, ii is
thought, fell on the caps in his hand, ex-
plodng them, and the conclusion then ex
ploded the box Of caps held in the other
hand. There was no person with Reese al
the time OF the accident, but the noise occa.
stoned by the explosion of the caps drew the
attention OF men working i'll other parts oil
the mine, who went TO see what was the
matter. On reaching the place they found
Reese about our yards from his former po-
slion, he having been thrown that distance,
over a windlaSS, by the explosion. lie was
unable 10 move, and partially insensible.
Both hands of the unfortunate man were al
most entirely severed from his arms, only
hanging by a single cord and a piece of skin.
The right arm was torn off about midway
between the elbow and wrist, slanting toward
the elbow. The other was clean cut.
There was not a particle OF flesh remained
on his hands. A deep cash was found across
the thigh of the right leg, and his face was
badly burned. With both hands hanging in
this way he was taken to Milford.
