The Oil Mill.

Every shed, warehouse and other

A Terrible Domestic Tragedy.

The little town of Bolar in Mercier

Henry Thomas, an old farmer, has four
grown daughters named Hrttie, Margaret
Nancy and Jane, aged Is. 1S, 20 and -
years respectively. Last Wednesday
night Samuel and Charles Hasbern,
brothers, procured ladder and helped
Margaret and Jane OF second-story
window of their fathers house. As they
were about to elOpe with the girls the
old man appeared on the scene, but too
late to prevent their escape.
He at once procured the best horse he
had and shot gun, and started in hot
pursuit. When about twelve miles from
home he overlook and opened fire Oh hem

After getting nearly home with the
girls, he was told that the other two,
Hattiea and Nancy. had also eloped with
Ned Greason and Thomas Allison. He
at once left the girls he had with him i'm
charge OF some neighbors and started
after the others.
After securing the other girls without
any serious trouble, he started back, but
when about two miles from home mob

up to tree.

who have received warning notice is the
attorney of Law and Order League at
Sioux City who has been told by the re-
gulators to leave the city: Editor Per-

editor of a daily paper has received word

Curing a Drunkard.

None of ny lady readers will be likely
to need the following, but they may be SC
unfortunate as to be connected with
some one who does. The tiRcture Of cap
slcum is a strong tincture of African
cayenne pepper in alcohol.
According to an article in the British
Medical Journal. it has been found by
DIR. Renger that the tincture of capsicum
in ten drop doses is the best remedy to
cOunteract that craving for alcohol
which is the curse of all inebriates, pre-
venting their return to rational conduct.
This remedy has been tested by other ply
sicians, and they report very favorably
in regard to it. They give several in
stances of various men of all ages who.
half-muddled, hung around low drinking
saloons, or at home; and who, when the
liquor saloon shut up, would pick the
lock, or when their money was taken
from them, would tipple on credit when-
ever there was chance.
The best way to administer this reme-
dy is to commence with five drops in
little syrup of orange peel before meals,
increasing the dose of capsicum to twelve
drops. In one month most of them be-
came quite different men. changing from
half idiots to men who attended to their
business and took an interest in all that
was going on in the world.

lne small crafts ana HAT boats ply
ing the Teche from here to Arnandville
are having a busy season, they bring at
every trip, cotton, cotton seed and other
producte in large number, and if the

several of those small boats could be
kept busy all the year, which would
greatly facilitate the merchants and

Grand Army veterans and many of General
HARRISON civilian friends were regretting to-
day that ne authentic and accurate verbatim
report OF the Generals brief speech last night
was IN existence. General Harrison regarded
tne meeting as " a family gathering" and had
no expectation or desire that his remarks should
be printed. The spirit of the speech was the
SUBJECT OF general approval and congratulations
IN Grand Army circles and with Republicans
generally. By many it is regarded as a key
note TO the attitude of the new Administration
toward the South.
The announcement through Associated Press
dispatches that Senator Hiscock was en- route to

a MONEY STANDARD.
Stewart of Nevada Makes Strong Ap.
peal in Behalf of Silver

WASHINGTON, January 2d.-Sepator Stewart
delivered an elaborate speech in advocacy of
silver as money in the Senate to-day. He gave a
resume OF the history of money from the earliest
period. He declared that if Europe and America
adhere TO the gold standard two thirds of the
people OF the earth will refuse to recognize it,
The great drawback to paper money is that it
has no exact value among the different nations
ana the same holds true, to a great extent as
regards gold. The scarcity of that metal
makes the necessity for a silver standard
more apparent. he gave a graphic
description of the wonderful results achieved
through the use of silver as money. He denied
that the prosperity OF the country after 1916 was
due TO the reduction of the tariff, as has been
claimed by the free-traders, but was due TO the
faei that Europe needed our grain and sent her
gold into this country to pay for ii when this
country had but little coin in circulation and
TO the discoveries of gold in California and Aus
tralis which made coin plentiful During the
use OF the two standards of gold and silver
prlces rose 20 per cent, but after the demonetiza
ton OF silver in Europe there an alarming
decrease in the price. With standard rates gold
and silver VIII be practically of one value.
Inc immediate result of a reduction of duty
would be increased imporiaticns and a great
amount OF money sent out OF the country 10 pay
Tor them. He denied the possibility that the
country could be overloaded with silver as il
would always be largely consumed in the aris
and manufactures. He said the United States
should be INDEPENDENT of Europe financially.
