A Hint to PunY PoonIe.

From their arrival on this planet to their
usually early departure from,it, people of weak
constitutions and angular physiques pass a sort
OF half-existence. Like dormice they burrow
In their home retreats, afraid of heat afraid of
cold, constantly afraid that the shadow of the
dread reaper will materalze and exact the
forfeit which he demands from all, sooner

alive yigor for the feeble exists than that afford
ed by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Used with
persistence-not with spirits and spasms this
genial and professionally commended tonic
will do much toward infusing strength into a
puny system, and rounding off scrawny angles
IN the human figure. Appetite, nerS e tram

HELENA, Mont, September Especial. l.
Nows of horrible tragedy in Missoula county
has been received. An atrocious murder was
committed by Nez Perces Indians on billiard
creek, on the mineral hill trail, on August 80.
Two miners-Frank ID. Jaquette and John
Kombaugh--left Corvallis with pack animals
to carry supplies to the Ironclad mine, located
at Mineral Point Montana. They proceeded
on the journey without molestation un-
I'll they arrived at a point, in the
idaho. an old deserted mining camp, and
here were overtaken by two Indians and q
squaw. The party rode along together, the
miners having no suspicion OF trouble, as the
bucks said they were going across South Fork
to kill deer.
requested the privilege of camping with the
white men, which was granted. The party
sat around the camp fire until about 10 o'clock
before retiring. About IL O'Clock the Indian
who was bunking with the Indian woman,
fred at the two miners, who were asleep in
jumped up and called out to his partner to grab
the gun. He made another leap and was soon
out in the bushes.
Another shot was fred, and he heard Kom-
baugh give an exclamation of pain, and when
he had gone about one hundred yards
he heard another shot and groans.
Jaquette saw the Indians coming in the
same direction In which he was secreted in
the bushes, and he made break for the South
fork and waded the river with no wearing APP
parel except Undertaking. The fleeing miner
went up on mountain side, and thought he
would go up the river short distance, and
then make his way to Mineral Point. He
wandered around in the woods all night, plain
~ hearing the Indians on his trail, and about
daylight, footsore and completely tired out as
he was tearing up his Undertaking to make
covering to protect his feet, his pursuers ap-
peared and fired two shots at him, and he had
a long run for his life.
He arrived at Phillipsburg about 10 o'clock
A posse of miners soon assembled and started
They at once found Kombough lying dead
with two bullets in his body, one shot in the
shoulder and one shot in the cheek Tho pur.
suit Of the Indians is being prosecuted vigo-
ously.

Colgan,n snccesr.

New YoRK, September IL. Especial. i
John H. Colgan, who was clerk OF the DEM
ocratic campaign committee of this state when
Cleveland was elected governor, and who has
been stumping Indiana for the national demo-
cratic committee, has arrived III New Y ork on
his way to Connecticut, where he will make
speeches 10 tho workingmen, as he has been
doing in Indiana.
Mr. Colgan spoke of the working man, both
Mt EIkhart and indianapolis. At the former
place, he says, eleven hundred laboring men
who were his co-workers during the strike
when General Harrison headed tho
MILITIA AGAINST THE STRIKERS,
organized thcmselyer after the meeting into
Cleveland and Thurman club. Many of these
men had voted for Blaine four years ago, and
had always called themselves republicans.
Many OF them were personally known to Mr..
Colgan, and he describes their feeling toward
tho republican national ticket, and Mr.. Harri-
SON in particular, as being bitter in the OK
IRENE.
The night after he spoke at Ellshart, Mr.,
Colgan made an address to the working men Of
indianapolis. On that occasion he came in con-
tact with hundreds moro of tho workers who,
during tho great strike stood shoulder to
shoulder with him in the ranks of organized
labor. He describes their feelings as indi-
eating
GENERAL POLITICAL REVOLUTION
in Indiana, and says that eleven hundred of
them, many of whom had voted for Blaine,
came forward after the meeting and signed
the rolls OF Cleveland ana thurman cam
pagn club.
Mr. Colgan had quite an adventure last
night in the Fifth Avenue hotel, the hotbed
Of republicanisIn, with an Engfshman named
Bell, who is a fashionable Fifth avenue tailor
here.
Bell stood at the bar near Colgan who was
with patty of friends, and commented audi
bly, on the presence of 'fhe Mick" The sofas
around this fashionable republican resort
wore lined with leading republicans from all
over the country. When Bell reflected on his
politics, having overheard Colgan talking
about his work in Indiana, n
VERY DRAMATIC SCENE
took place. Colgan, who is q tall, slender
young man, raised his black silk hat from his
head, looked up in rcverent way and electro
fed the crowd by saying:
Eyes. am an Irishman. Every sod of the
ould dart is dear to me. / am Catholic, and
the mother church is enthroned in my heart
/ am also democrat and no man shall reflect
on my race, breed or politics"
As ho said this he moved toward Bell, who
added an insulting eptthet to what he had
already said, whereupon Colgan hit him two
tremendous smashes In the jaw. A scene of
great confusion followed. The republican big
bugs were Mortified When quiet was restored,
Bell had disappeared.

i cannot, however, recall an election since 1870
when our party was well organized that we
have been defeated. Our organization today
is better than we ever had before. Every
democrat is at work with an enthusiasm and
earnestness never before displayed. The
changes have largely been in our favor. The
only factor that cannot now be definitely de-
terinined is the now vote which has matured
and como into the state since 1884. This vote
is estimated at from twenty-five to fifty thou
sand. In my opinion a majority Of this vote
is with US. My candid judgment, therefore, is
that we will carry the state by an increased
majority. w. u. BYSUM.

attention was paid. The scene was q notable
one, the union veterans cheering the confeder-
ate veteran to the echo as he explained that he
became disguised with the oonfederacy during
the war, but served through because he had
promised to do so. His remarks were of po-
litical nature at times.
The following resolutions were adopted by
the Grand Army today:
Resolved, That it is the sense of this cneampment
