SELF-DEFENSE AGAINST A DANGER
GUS FOE.

Forewarned is not forearmen in the case
of those who incur the risk of an attack
from that dangerous foe malaria, unpro-
vided with a means Of defense. But if
those in peril are aided, sustained and re-
inforced with the great terrifying safe
guard, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
miasma, prolific breeder of evils mani
tested 10 the shape of bilious remittent
and chills and fever, ague cake, dumb
ague and the calentura of the Isthmus and
Central American coast, is nullified and
rendered harmless. Our western pioneer
settlers and miners, jewellers in tropic low
lands, and visitants of and jewellers in
malarious localities in this country and
many quarters of the globe, have for years
been acquainted with the fact and are
constantly provided with this unparalleled
defensive medicine and remedy. All dis
order of the stomach, liver and bowels,
rheumatic and kidney complaints and
rheumatism are conquered BY it.

DIED AS HE LIVED.

BUTTE, Mont, August 23.-Harry
Roberts was hanged today for the murder
OF j. W. Crawford. The drop fell at 1:12
and Roberts neck was broken by the fall.
A strong pressure was brought to bear by
the Grand Army comrades and a number
OF citizens to have sentence committed
to life imprisonment and it was not
until S:45 this morning that the
condemned man abandoned all hope of
clemency, when Sheriff Lloyd received a
message from Governor White refusing to
interfere. Roberts did not weaken at all,
and died as he had lived-a cool and de-
termined man. This is the first execution
III Silver Bow county.
Roberts crime was the unprovoked kill
ing of Crawford on May II last. Crawford
was teamster under Roberts and they
had quarrel, and Roberts shot him while
drinking.

dns Of the Result. OF FattenIng Animals In
short Time.
Apoplexy is usually disease OF TAT
hogs: although an animal that has
long been thin or suffering from Excess
sive irritation OF the intestinal canal
would also be predisposcd to II. 1t
must be understood that the process oil
fattening an animal in n few weeks
destroys the equilibrium OF the system,
and in one sense the fathess Is In itself
disease. The storing up of fat in the
animal economy is always at the ex-
pense of muscular development. The
muscles become weak and fabby. All
the blood-vessels OF the system are
surrounded by strong. tough, muscu-
lar coat that in state OF perfect
health will resist any force that the
hearts action can put upon these
canals. But the fattening process
veakcns these fbersl sudden or
unusual strain ruptures one in the
brain, and we call it apoplexy. 1t is
not as common in the hog
as one would expect, but oc-
ours so often that the breeders
should understand it and know the
right thing to do. 1t is impossible to
foresce when this is going to occur. If
the rupture is very small one, when
the blood is oozing out in tiny drops,
the hog will sometimes be found lying
insensible and breathing heavily. No
effort will arouse it. 1t is more usual
to find big fat hog lying dead. with
no external marks or signs OF the
6aiise Of death. Cut open the skull
carefully, and clot of blood of greater
or less extent will be found inside. II
