fever. 1t was first published in the Cal
ifornia papers, and the statement is
made that it was never known to fail.
The correspondent who offers it says:
"Here is the recipe as have used it,
and cured my children of scarlet fever;
here it is as / have used it to cure the
smallpox. When learned physicians
SAID the patient must die it has cured:
Sulphate of zinc, one grain; foxglove
(digitalis), J, one grain; half teaspoon
full of sugar. Mix with two teaspoonfuls
of water; when thoroughly mixed, add
four ounces of water. Take teaspoon
full every hour. Either disease will dis
appear in twelve hours. For child,
smaller doses, according to age. II
counties would compel physicians to use
this, there would be no need of pest
houses. If you value advice and exper-
fence, use this for that terrible disease"
-Farmington Register: Mr.. George
Simpson, who has just arrived from
prospecting tour on Hangman creek,
few miles from this city, brings samples
of fine quartz discovered by himself.
The samples were taken from ledge
eight or nine feet in width, which can
be traced for several miles. Himself and
several others will develop the claim this
winter, which, Judging from the sam
pies, will prove bonanza to its proprie-
tors. It has long been known that the
banks of Hangman creek, Deep creek
and other streams near there contained
valuable quartz lodges, and why they
did not commence to develop them long
before was on account of the great Cpur
d'Alene district being SO close, and when
a person wanted to mine he generally
went to that place.
The HERALD wishes to remark right
here that it's first months business has
been highly satisfactory to its publish
ers, and to the public, also, we hope.
Not a single patron has dropped from
our list of advertisers, but, on the con-
trary, more are coming in; and the circu-
lation, too, of this great moral illumina
tor is growing right along. like wool
grass in 40-acre pasture. Who's next?
All holiday goods below par at Bre-
mer's store.
-Colfax Commoner: Corey Bros, con-
tractors, who have had extensive con-
tracts on the new o. R. & N. road
through this county, this summer, have
q sed operations until next spring, and
sent their stock to winter quarters.
Other contractors are doing likewise.
No railroad work of consequence will be
done across the reservation until next
year.
Garfield Enterprise: While stop
ping at Watertown, Oak, Mr.. Long re-
ceived above hundred calls from vari-
GUS persons who were seeking for infor-
nation concerning Washington terri
tory. He says the objective point of i'm
migration through Montana and Dakota
is this territory, and that we may look
for food OF immigration in the spring.
An indianapolis dispatch, after Civ
ing some of the details of the wedding
of Hon. Chas. S. Voorhees, and Miss
Fannie Vajen, says that after the expira-
ton of his term of office Mr.. voorhees,
will return to Colfax and resume the ac-
tive practice of his profession-the law.
Pullman welcomes another desirable
acquisition in the persons of Mr.. j. II.
Beams and family, late of Kansas. They
were accompanied by carload of stock,
ETC., and 20 fine grade COWS. We under
stand Mr.. B. will engage in the dairy
business here.
All-wool scarlet flannel 121 cents per
yard at Downen & Miller's.
Spokane Falls new paper, the Sun
day Welcome, is a dandy typographical
ly and editorially. So, also, is the
Olympia Partisan, the Tacoma Ledger,
the Seattle Post t-Intelligencer-all of
whom the HERALD cordially welcomes to
its exchange table.
-Pullman's population was consid-
erably augmented Monday by the arriv-
al from Colorado of brother and sister
in-law of Rev. Phelps, with their famil-
les. The gentlemen among the new
comers are contractors and builders, SO
we are informed.
The property known as the John
Peterson farm 100 acres), northeast of
town, and owned by Jasper Wilson, has
been sold through the Downen agency
to Charles and Henry Delphine, lately
from the east. Consideration, $4,000.
DIR. Webb, of this place, won some
thing like $1,000 from Portland parties
on the result of the recent election. We
understand that w. NJ Chambers is also
ahead several hundred dollars in the
same way.
