Ignorance From Pure Stingiuess.

For the small sum Of twenty-five cents q
man in Delaware offers to send farmers Q
circular telling them show TO increase the
flow OF milk in cows; how to increase the
laying OF eggs; how to prevent cattle, fowls.
etc., from getting old; how to make hens
lay every day in the year, and how to make
cucumber vines bear five times year 1t
might be supposed that this was about as
much as any one could expec. for twenty. Ave
cents, but some farmers refuse to invest be
cause the circular doe. not tell them how to
lind a million dollars in gold in their cellar,

that the mare ridden by Colonel Edwards in

How :: &C. Ga" CURED

BY taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, which, BY
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be a potent and peculiar
medicine for this disease. Some Of these
cures are really wonderful. II you suffer from
scrofula, be sure to try Hoods Sarsaparilla.
EVERY spring my wife and children have
been troubled with scrofula, sores breaking
out on them in various places. My little boy,
three years old, has been a terrible sufferer.
Last spring he was one mass Of sores from head
to feet. Twas advised to use Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, and we have all taken it. The result
is that all have been cured Of the scrofula,
my little boy being entirely free from sores,
and all four Of my children look bright and
healthy" W. B. ATHERToN, Passaic City, NJ.

WEisER LEADER: II is said the
American Indians spoke 70 different
languages and 800 dialects. Our lit
tie quiet burg can boast of three dis
tlnct languages. English, bad Eng
lish and profane. =. Believing that
we are right in suggesting that an Ir-
rigation Convention be called in this
Territory to discuss this important
question, we would like all of the
Territorial press who agree with us in
this matter to do all in their power to
bring this proposition to a successful
issue. II they will suggest any def
mite plan or program for successful
result, we will gladly join them and
do everything we can to carry out
their views. :. Last summer we were
surfeited with yellow jackets. They
were more numerous than swear
words on our streets, and quite as
big nuisance. We never sought the
society of yellow jackets, but we feel
sort OF aggrieved this summe err at their
nonappearance. During this sleepy
and narcotic smoke spell, we are free
To confess that the business end of
yellow aoket would be reminder
that we still were possessed of some
vitality at least, and might stir us up
with the hope of better and brighter
days ahead, for mosquitoes, flies and
bed bugs are too tame to arouse our
torpid condition, IN. Il. Robert
sou returned last Saturday from War
rens, where he has been attending to
his mining interests. He reports the
camp in good shape, with a good
deal OF work being done on some
hne prospects. He gives glowing ac-
counts OF the Alton district, and gives
it as his opinion that 1t is the coming
camp OF Idaho. He considers the
Cleveland mine "The Boss" of this
Territory. They are working a good
force Of men aud taking out plenty OF
magnificent ore of very high grade.
Mr.. Robertson was one OF the un.
fortunates who took in the stampede

marks on the subject were sandwich
ed with words OF bitterness, in which
he took the name of the originators

ROCKY bar buiicuh
i A woman known all over the Pa
ci6c coast as "Spanish Belle" or
"Belle Rogers" died IN this place last
Sunday morning, aged eighty-seven
years, There is scarcely mining
camp on the coast that this woman
did not visit during its prosperity
since the days of 1S49. Her history,
If correctly told, would doubtless ell
a large volume, and it would be vol
ume of bad deeds only, for no good
deeds have ever been attributed to
her, in the knowledge of those few
who have known her history for the
past forty years. 1t seems that she
gloried in the crimes she had COM
mitted, aad during her convivial mo-
menis would relate some incidents of
her past life. From this source we
gather that at an early age, in her
native land of Central America, she
became the mistress of noted sea
pirate named Valzaj, whose vessel
was a terror to the merchant ships
plying the waters OF the Pacific ocean.
She boosted that her duty was, when
this pirate ship anchored at a port of
prominence, to decoy rich men aboard
the vessel, whore they would surely
be murdered and robbed. She fol-
lowed this criminal career until the
discovery of gold in California, when
she left her pirate paramour clandes-
timely and landed in San Francisco in
the Summer OF 1919. She soon drift
ed TO the gold mines and followed
every excitement from that date to
the time of her death, plying her ne
farious calling and terror to the
community in which she happened to
cast her lot. 1t is said "Spanish
Belle" boosted OF having murdered
four men herself alone for money
lone in ldaho), aud two women of
her own character, who were so I'M
fortunate as to excite her jealousy. 1t
is claimed that she was buried with a
finger ring belonging to one of her
unfortunate victims. The men whom
she had cut almost to death in Boise
Basin, Atlanta, Rocky Bar, in Idaho,
and Eureka aud Virginia City, Neva-
da, are entirely too numerous to men
ton. Yet in her long career of
crime this woman, by her desilish
cunning, managed to escape just pun
ishment by law. In her young days
she was doubtless a handsome wo-
man, and at her death did not look to
be over sixty years of age. She was
quietly buried Sunday evening about
7 o'clock, with but one solitary per
son following her remains to the
grave.
