Proof Better than Assertion.

With such proof as the following let
ter from w. H. Dean, Of 278 Seventh
street, New York, it's not necessary to
make the bare assertion that Allcock's
Porous Plasters cure lumbago. Mr..
Dean says:
Some ten days ago was taken with
very violent pain in the small of my
back. 1t was so severe that I could
hardly breathe; every movement
caused great agony. I finally found
out that it was lumbago. Being entire.
ly helpless, a friend sent to druggist
and got two Allcock's Porous Plasters
these were we'll warmed and applied te
my back, one above the other. In hall
an hour, to my great delight and sur
prise, found the pain began to abate
In two hours was able TO walk out
and attend to my business, the pain be
ing almost gone. Next day I was al
right but continued wearing the plaster
for a week. 1t

Montana Union improvements.
Messrs. Adams and Holcomb. president
and vice president, respectively, of the
Union Pacific, instead of returning to
Omaha, Wednesday evening, as they in
tended to do, changed their minds and re-
manned at Anaconda. Yesterday they re-
turned, and under the guidance OF Superin-
tendent Law, made a complete and ex-
haustive examination of the Montana
Unions trackage and yard facilities, and
also looked into the matter OF the i'm
provements recommended by Mr.. Law
when be assumed superintendency OF the
road.
What conclusion they arrived at is not
known and probably will not be made
public until official orders of soma kind
relative to the matter are issued. Mr.,
kimball, Mr.. Cakes and other officers OF
the road have examined the proposition,
and now with the examination made by
Messrs. Adams and Holcomb, all theexecu-
tive officers OF the company have familiar
lied themselves with the subject and some
definite action in the premises may be
reasonably looked for.
The report that the two gentlemen had
visited the Orc Elmo district for the pur-
pose OF examining into the feasibility OF
connecting that locality, by means of a
branch, with the Utah & Northern, is de.
MED by parties in g. position to know
whereof they speak. Several surveys have
been made, it is true, but hey ond this moth
ing has been done towards making the pro-
posed connection.
Messrs. Adams and Holcomb returned
to Omaha, yesterday evening.

Helenass OriEiu-Fav0red by . Dismal
Tale Of the Kootsnai Region.
From q Helena letter: The circumstances
attending the birth OF Helena are interest.
ing. Four young miners whose names are
notassociated with the city's later history,
in May, 1864, we're wandering along the
main range prospecting. They had been
unable to obtain claims in Alder gulch.
and their objective point, in case they
should fail to find q rich field
Of their own, was Kootenai, in
British Columbia. where common report
located valuable diggings. They camped
one night in the gulch where
Helena stands to-day, but though they
found color they were not particularly
pleased. They doubted il gold was there
in anything like paying quantities. They
pushed ahead, therefore, CROSSED the range,
and had gone as many as thirty miles
northward, when they encountered q mar
who dispelled their dreams OF Kootenai.
He said the good claims were all gone, and
the best of them were poor, anyhow.
This news was q great encouragement to
the party. They held a rather dismal
council, and concluded that the gulch they
had lately left was their only hope. Ac-
.cordingly. the next morning they turned
around and came back to the spot where
they had previously encamped. They grimly
named the valley Last Chance Gulch,"
and Last Chance Gulch it is to-day. They
sank two holes to bedrock, andtheir hearts
leaped high when they counted $3.6 in
dust in their first pan. Each of these
four adventures made a fortune from his
claim, and soon a big camp was drawn to-
gether.
One OF the miners who had been impressed
with the destinations of Homer's hsroine's
gallantry, urged the name OF Helena as
most appropriate for the name OF the new
city, and Helena it became.
It stands to-day in the bottom where
the Last Chance Pilgrims made their first
discoveries. A more absurd and yet a more
picturesque situation would be difficult to
fancy. It's chief business ~thoroughfare lies
directly in the bottom OF the Last
Chance, gulch, at the further end
of which the patient Chinaman
is still washing his pan OF dirt
and realizing a fortune larger than in his
own country he had ever dreamed of
achieving. Thirty millions were taken from
the Last Chance gulch before it was aban-
.oned to merchants and shopkeepers, and
now the builder OF a new house can
find laborers willing to dig his cellar for the
dirt they take from it.

A LAW SUIT FROM SLAVERY.
Curious Litigation Over an Old-Time
Slaves Fortune,

curious Litigation over an Old-Tim,
Slaves Fortune.
San Francisco special Of August %: A
curious case, involving the rights of thos,
who had been slaves, was rendered by
Judge Levy yesterday. In 1910 Anthony
Waddy, q slave. was mated to Rachel BY
their owner in Tennessee, and by her had
ONE child, Caroline. Rachel and Caroline
were afterward sold to a Missouri planter,
and Anthony was given a new wife, Mary
Ansea. He came to California in 1S47,
grew rich, purchased the freedom of Mary
Ansea and a child she had borne him, and
they came to him in California.
When Caroline, the daughter of Rachel,
Anthony's first wife, grew up she married q
colored man named Jackson, and the two
ran away to California in 1860, thereby
becoming free. Anthony Waddy, when
Mary Ansea reached the coast, married her
legally, and when he died in 1875 he left
her real estate worth $4,000. Mary Ar
seas child died, and in 1880 Caroline An.
thongs first child brought suit for a divi-
sion OF the estate. 1t was disputed by
Mary Ansea on the ground that the child
OF a slave was Legitimate and could not
inherit, but the court held that the law of
California did not recognize slavery in any
sense, and that IN Legitimate child, whose
paternity was established beyond doubt,
could inherit.
Caroline, therefore, will receive q daugh-
ter's interest in the estate, and il she sur
wives Mary Ansea, which she will probably
do, she will inherit it all.
