,'Jfm the KIDS, Romance Ended.


When Buffalo Bills Wild West show
was exhibiting at Erastina two years ago,
says the New York World, Miss Lillian
Smith, the champion rifle shot, was a
member of the troupe. as was also the
Wyoming cowboy known as Jim the
Kid" The latter became infatuated with
Miss Lillian and the couple finally were
secretly married by Justice Halsebus.
Lillian's father was very indignant. For
some time Jim was unable to see his
bride and it was not until after he had
threatened to resort to legal measures that
Lillian's father became reconciled to the
match.
The couple remained with Buffalo
Bills show during its stay on Staten
Island, and also accompanied it on a
Western tour. Thursday last Justice
Halsebus received a letter from jim,
dated at Paris, in which he stated that he
was still with Buffalo Bills show, as was
also his wife, but that he had about made
up his mind to bring suit for divorce. He
requested Justice Halsebus to write to him,
advising him how to proceed to get rid of
his wife

MONTANA IS ALL RIGHT.
She Will Go Republican for Many
Years to Come"

+ l.. Bonner of Montana, who was, two
years ago, prominent Democrat, but came
out boldly for protection and Republeanism
last fall, has been in Washington for several
days. A Mail and Express reporter met him
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel recently and
asked him what he thought of the chances Of
his Territory being admitted into the Union
this session of Congress. He said
II think that all the Territories will be ad-
mitted this session except New Mexico,
Montana will be Republican State for
many years To come. Two years ago it gave
I 600 majority for the Democratic congress
sional delegate and last fall the Republican
delegate was elected by 1000 majority
showing a Republican gain of 5000 clear.
You see the people in Montana do not care
80 much for party and its traditions as they
do for the present policy party advocates.
The Democratic party went in for Free
Trade and our voters rose up against it,.
The people in the far West will not vote
against their interests any more than those
living in the East. Ours is a great and grow
ing Territory and we do nOtPropose to check
our prosperity to satisfy Free Trade and
pauper England and Europe. Montana can
be counted ON to send two Republican Sens-
tors to Washington when she is admitted to
the Union"

Weather Crop Bulletins.

During the growing season of the past
year. the Signal Service, cooperating with
the State Weather Services collected data
as to the condition of crops and weather
which was embodied in weekly Weather
Crop Bulletin. In many sections this proved
of great interest and value. For the present
wear it is desired to issue such Bulletin
for New England, covering as completely as
possible the condition of crops in all sections
of New England. To accomplish this it il
desirable to secure at least one correspond
ent in each county of the New England
States. These correspondents will mail to
the Assistant of the New England Meteoro-
logical Society, at Boston each Friday, on
franked forms furnished by the Signal Ser
vice, a brief report on the state of weather
and condition of crops for the preceding
week telegram embodyiny the data thus
collected is sent to the Chief Signal Office
each Saturday, and on the kilograms received
from the various State Services, together
with the meteorological data from the Signal
service stations, is based the general Weather
Crop Bulletin issued at Washington The
reports are farther usei in compiling a more
detailed Bulletin for New England issued at
Boston. In return for the reports furnished
a copy of the weekly Bulletin is sent to each
correspondent, 1t is, of course, desirable to
secure as correspondents, persons having a
somewhat extended knowledge of the crop
conditions in their section. ANY such who
are DESTROYS of cooperating in this work are
invited TO address sgt. Park Morrill,, Signal
Office, Boston, Mass

There is no doubt that the dphtheria in its
worst form is very prevalent in many cities
and small towns. At the same time, that
fact is no reason for frightening people out
of their wits, with every new case of sore
throat. Even liberated sore throat is bad
enough, and no person would have that for
fun Yet hundreds of persons are said to
have had diphtheria who only had a severe
sore throat. The form of sore throat which
often passes for diphtheretic is what old
people call quinsy, "Putrid sore throat
known long before diphtheria, was probably
a form of diphtheria and very dangerous.
An Old hospital nurse in Boston, says: cit
amt the clear cold of winter that lays people
up with colds, catarrh, and sore threats, and
lays the children low with diphtheria it's
the soft, pleasant alternating with the wet,
slushy days This is very true, and ex-
plains why those troubles are not so prevail
ent this unusually soft rainy winter; the air
in fact. is laden with poisonous vapors.
The first symptoms of true diphtheria are
much like those of heavy cold on the
lungs, There is fever, some stupor, and
difficulty in breathing. Very sharp pains
are often felt in the neck glands, just below
the ear. The tongue is coated, the throat
and tonsils infamed, little white spots
which increase and turn to dirty yellow or
brown color next appear, and peculiar odor
totally unlike liberated sore throat is
noticeable. If the disease is of the black or
malignant type nothing put miracle can
restore the patients to their former good
health. Very many reliable people claim
to have cured severe cases of diphtheria
with Johnson's Anodyne Liniment. Be that
as it may, it is worth trying, because SO
easily used internally, dropped on sugar or
as q gargle, and bathing for external use
We know from experience that it will cure
common sore throat In one night. and
thousands of people claim that no remedy
known will relieve colds, cstarrh, bronchitis
Group, etc, as promptly as the good old
Johnson's Liniment. If il cures them, why
not diphtheria? Ii was an old family physi-
clans prescription. |. S. Johnson & Co,
Boston, will send free to any person an H.
lustrated pamphlet about its use. Send
them your name. mar4d& wlw

STATISTICS OF MANAGES AND
DIVORCES.
Illinois. OF Course, Leads the Divorce
Lst-over 400, 600 Divorces Granted
in Twenty Yeara

Carroll u. Wright. Commissioner Of Labor,
has submitted to Congress his special report
on the statistics of the Laws relating to mar
rage and divorce in the United States. from
| 1867 TO 1886. The statistics Of marriage in
this report cover only ss per cent Of all the
counties in the country, the counties not re-
ported having no record of marriages. The
statistics relating to divorce cover over 80
per cent Of all the counties in the country,
and more than 90 per cent of the population.
The first t~o chapters of the report contain
an analysis of the laws relating to marriage
and divorce in the United States, and include
a brief review Of the effect Of sectarisn Gus
toms and practice on marriage and on
divorces.
Chapter Three shows the number Of di-
vorces granted in the several States and Ter
rtories for each Of the twenty years covered
By the report. The whole number Of divorces
granted in the United States is given by
years as follows:
In 1867. 1897; 1868. 10, $50; 1863, l0,955 ;
1870, 1882; 1871. 1856; 1872, l2,39o;
1873, 1916; 1874, 1899; 1875, 1872;
1876, 1880; 1877, 1851; 1878. 1903 (;
1879 II. 0s3; 1880, 1868; 1851. 20,752 /;
1889, 20.il2; 1888, %, 1873; 1854. % ,99l ;
1885, 23.i72; 1856, 25,535. Total for the
twenty years, 32s.7l6.
In New York the number OF divorces
granted during the twenty years was 1855 :
in Connecticut, s,5s2 in New Jersey, 2.6I2
Illinois leads the list with 36,O72 divorces,
followed by Indiana with 20 1873 cases, South
Carolina having the least number, 1853.
The report shows that for the whole twenty
years Rhode Island stands at the bottom of
the list in the ratio of marriages TO one di-
sorce, the ratio being ILL marriages to each
divorce granted, Connecticut standing next
with a ratio Of l.32 marriages to one di-
| yorce; Massachusetts stands the highest,
having 81 ,3s marriages celebrated to one d.
vorce granted.
OF the 328.7l6 divorces granted in the
United States for the twenty years covered
| by the report. PIG, 739, or 90 per cent of the
WHcitr Nttt Efhhltu Wives ~ 900
were granted to husbands. The causes in
which wives are the petitioners more largely
than husbands are cruelty, where the wife
seeks divorce as to ! in desertion the
proportion is over liz TO in drunkenness,
. TO |. The husband is shown to have
sought divorce for the adultery of the wife
/ in 81, l55 cases, while the wife has obtained
divorce in 2s $50 cases for the adultery of
the husband The cause for which the
greatest number of divorces were granted is
that of desertiOn, being l2G, 557, or 80 per
cent Of the whole number.
| The Commissioner says it is apparent that
/ the divorces granted for drunkenness the
total being 1888, cannot in any sense of
the word represent the total number in
which drunkenness or incompetence is a
! serious factor.

Previous to lssl but one county in the
Province of Ontario had voted to close
the saloons under the Scott Act, but since
that period great many have tried the
experiment, and most of them have
eyinced their belief that it was success
full by extending the period of its opera
ton. The Canada Citizen prints an in-
teresting exhibition of the comparative
number of arrests for drunkenness in the
counties which have adopted local option
and those which have retained the old
license system. In the latter, numbering
iiftecr, the number of arrests for drunk
enuess in 1854 was 1850; In 1857, 1899 !;

A curious housekeeper of experience re-
Gently made a careful practical test of the
comparative baking value of large number
of the baking powders in the market, ilclud-
ing those of low and high cost. She found
that twenty-five cents worth of Horsford' s
Bread Preparation raised more -four and
produced much better results than the same
moneys worth of the cheap adulterated
powders. and also that it took fifty cents
worth of the ordinary high-cost baking pow
ders to raise the same quantity of flour. From
this she concluded that it was more economi-
cal to use the Horsford's than the low priced
adulterated powders, and the product was
much better. We recommend trial of this
experiment by our lady friends.

Castoria is recomme nded by physicians for
children teething. 1t is a purely vegetable
preparation, its ingredients are published
around each bottle. 1t is pleasant to the
taste and absolutely harmless. 1t relieves
COT stipation, regulates the bowels, quiets
pain, cures diarrh9a and wind collie, allays
feverishness, destroys worms, and prevents
commissions, soothes the child and gives ii
refreshing and natural sleep. Castoria is the
children's panacea-the mothers friend.
