Catarrh

IS blood disease. Until the poison is expelled from the system, there can be no cure for this loathsome and dangerous malady. Therefore, the only effective treatment is thorough course of Ayers Sarsaparilla-the best of all blood purifiers. The sooner you begin the better; delay is dangerous.
 "I was troubled with catarrh for over two years. I tried various remedies, and was treated by number of physi- clans, but received no benefit until | began to take Ayers Sarsaparilla. A few bottles of this medicine cured me of this troublesome complaint and com- pletely restored my health. ."-Jesse M, Boggs, Holman's Mills, N. O..
 "When Ayers Sarsaparilla was rec commended to mo for catarrh, l was in- clined to doubt it's efficacy. Having tried SO many remedies, with little ben eft, I had no faith that anything would cure me. became emaciated from loss of appetite and impaired digestion. I had nearly lost the sense of smell, and my system was badly deranged. I was about discouraged, when a friend urged me to try Ayers Sarsaparilla, and re- ferred me to persons whom it had cured of catarrh. After taking half dozen bottles of this medicine, I am convinced that the only sure way of treating this obstinate disease is through the blood" Charles H. Maloney, 113 River st., Lowell, Mass.

The Kate Murray Case.

The adjourned trial of D. P. Barnes, of Bristol before Samuel A. Bennett, of North Canaan, occurred Saturday. The charge was blackmail in obtaining a check for S7OO from Miss Kate Murray as settlement of the theft of diamond pin from Mrs Wallace Barnes, and the defendant was bound over to the next term of the superior court, Wallace Barnes furnishing bonds of S2,OOO for his appearance.- Waterbury American.
 The foregoing is substantially correct, except that Miss Murray denies steal ing the diamond pin. Newspaper enter prise may possibly consist in publish ing rumors that are derogatory to a persons character. Such rumors may not have the slightest foundation or contain grain of truth. yet the publi- cation of them should be frowned upon for they create prejudice which is difficult to overcome. Thus far THE NEWS has refrained from mentioning the Murray cases notwithstanding numerous verbal and published versi- ons of the affair are in circulation. THE NEWS firmly believes that in due time Miss Murray will be vindicated and her prosecutors receive the reward they 50 richly deserve.

ISAAC x. BEEBE..

Isaac N. Beebe was born August Tth, 1883, at Falls Village, Conn.,, and died January 2lst, 1889, at East Canaan, Conn. At the age of P he professed conversion and united with the Metho- dist church. Being the son of Deacon Charles Beebe, an honored officer of the Congregational church, the father felt sincerely that his son was making a mistake to leave the old and honored ancestral church, and the discussion of the question between them resulted, as such discussions usually do, in making the father stronger Congregationalist, and the son stauncher and more ardent Methodist. Bat they respected each others honesty and believed fully in each others religious experience and were all the more lovingly united. They often prayed with and for each other. Several years ago Deacon Charles Beebe, in the full triumphs of victorious faith "went home"
 Isaac Beebe came of good stock i; his integrity, his truthfulness, his hones- ty, came easily to him. His respect for the Sabbath and sanctuary came from early discipline and example received from his christian parents. He walked with God in all faithfulness-a worthy, trusted citizen-a husband and father true and tender, thoughtful and self sacrificing. His death clothes his house. hold in mourning, and the church recognizes the loss of an earnest, faith ful member. But his devoted wife and loving children and brothers in the church and kind neighbors all have this consoling reflection, he was "ready to to go." He suffered long but patiently waited for deliverence. He turned one glance upon the fearful faces of the loved ones to be left, and then gently closed his eyes, as if the weary spirit were pleading "Let me go, for the day breaketh.
 Servant of God well done!
 Thy glorious warfare's past,
 The battle is fought, the race is won, And thou art crowned at last.

 A GLIMPsE OF BUTTE CITY.

The following IS part of a letter writ ten to MT E. F. Sanford of Ore Hill, Conn.,, by l.. Bennetts, of Butte City, Montana Territory, under date of Jan. 21, 1889.
 We have had five weeks of revival services and are to have another week. Twenty-two have joined the church on probation. People are becoming more interested in the church service since the arrival of our new minister, and I think there are better days in store for Butte in regard to observing the Sabb- ath. There are two M. B. churches here, the North and South church, Presbyterian, Baptist, Congregational, Episcopal and Catholic church. r So they are changing the railroad on Ore Hill, and of course I know that will make many other changes, but I guess I shall know the place when I come that way. We do not expect to visit it yet awhile.
 Mir Bennetts is at work and gets $3.50 per day. We have bought lot and built a new house. House rent is very high ard building is good investment in Butte. It is the county seat of Silver Bow county, and has popula- tion of 30,000; has good public schools, and it is said there is not better lighted city in the west. The streets are lighted by the Brush electric sys- tenn. There are thirty -one lights sus- pended from masts thirty feet high. In addition to these innumerable private gas and electric lights are in front of business houses.
 The Miners Union is 6 prominent feature of Butte. It has membership of 1000 and has revenue of $3, 300 per month. The union pays it's sick or injured members BIO per week during disability, and in death allows $9O fol funeral expenses. The monthly fees are $1.
 There is street railway here and now they are building cable line. It ! is to be finished this month. Some of the outlying towns are so hllly that horse and motor cars could not go uI the mountains. These cars are drawn by having engines fixed at certain dis. tances on the hills. There will be 8 great turnout when it begins to run as there are many people that never saw cars run on that plan.
 There are many mines in Butte. II is said to be the richest mining camp in | the world. The minerals are gold, sil yer and copper.
 We have had very pleasant winter so far. The winters are long but not severe.
