s6S- WINE OF cARDul, a Tonic for Women.

Hon. l.. L. Polk, president of the
National Farmers Alliance and
Labor Union says: 81 believe this
tare and bagging question will lead
ultimately to the adoption OF bale
of uniform weight. 1t will be a.
small but compact bale and there
fore all the present waste will be
avoided and the possibility Of get
ting dirt into cotton will also be
obviated. BY putting it up in pack
ages that one man can handle, ev-
cry body will be benefited. 1t will
also be much easier to store it in
the holds of ships. We believe that
in the end it will lead to the cotton
being wrapped in wire, instead Of
the heavy, bungling tie now in use.
| don't hesitate to say that but for
the expense of changing the present
congresses the system would go in
to effect this year. 1t will certainly
be an immense saving to the farmer
and also to the manufacturer by
keeping the dirt out of the machin-
cry and by making the farmer more
particular in the classification and
care of his cotton. There is no pro-
duct with so much waste between
the harvest and the consumer as
cotton"

USE OF FERTILTZERs.

A farmer a few days ago made 4
good suggestion about the proper
use of fertilizers, and as he is a sue
cessful planter it is worth giving for
the benefit of others. 81 find,n
said the farmer, "that great deal
OF money is wasted by too lavish
use of fertilizers when the crop is
planted. If you want to fatten a
pig you do not give him all the food
a. once, simply because it will be
wasted and destroyed before it can
be eaten up by the pig. So it is with
food for the plant. Put on part of
your fertilizer when you plant your
crop, then every time you work it,
add a little more. If drouth comes,
and you find it will not be needed,
you save that much. 1t frequently
happens that a crop is injured more
than it is benefited by the improp-
er use of fertilizers. Then again by
putting the fertilizer on later in the
season you get more benefits when
tie crop is maturing and fruiting."
Apparently there is good sense in
the suggestion.

How to Grow Beautiful.

She knew it was necessary to be-
come beautiful in order to be con-
sidered attractive, and so she made
the art Of identifying a study. She
felt it wiser to be plump and hearty
than to be thin and delicate. To
this end she knew good health was
essential. She had suffered from
backaches, sideaches and bearing
down pains and was restless until
she found the medicine she needed.
1t improved her appetite and diges-
ton. Her habits became regular.
Her flesh increased and became
firm and solid. Her complexion
became clear and beautiful and
free from pimples. Her lips grew
red and her cheeks grew rosy. She
did not know an ache or pain. Ex-
ercise gave her pleasure and she Ee-
came the life of her companions.
She could ride tricycle. for many
miles and never seemed to grow
weary, Her laughter was catching
and all the young men loved her.
She is now happy wife and moth
err. Who was she! What was her
name? Well no matter, let us
know the medicine she used. With
pleasure, with pleasure, sweet girls.

At a meeting of the Georgia
Press Association in Savannah
March 25, the following resolutions
were introductory Mr.. T. L. CAN'T,
of the Athens Banner, and were
unanimously adopted:
"Whereas, We, members of the
Georgia Press Association, in con-
vention assembled, look with pleas
ure and appreciation upon any and
every movement calculated to en-
nance the prosperity of our agricul-
tural community and relieve our
struggling farmers from the wrongs
OF iniqutous oppressive tariff, the
depotism Of trusts, extortioners and
the dangerous influence of combined
capital, and,
Whereas, We consider the organ
ization of the farmers Alliance
movement calculated to further this
great end, and place this worthy
and hCnored class of our people in a
position where they can demand
their rights, and by united effort as
sist the Democratic party in defeat
ing the unjust and iniqutous de-
signs of the Republicans, which
party is grinding the toiling masses
into poverty that favored few may
accumulate unreasonable fortunes,
and,
Whereas, We watch with delight
the wonderful growth of the Farm
ers' Alliance, see it gathering into
an army of voters, not only the yeo-
many of the south, but of the great
grain growing states of the west, we
look upon the Alliance as an edu-
Gator of the people on the oppres-
sions inflicted upon them by the
Republican party, and to which they
have so long and patiently submit
ted; therefore, be it
Resolved, LIST. That this body
representing as it does the press Of
Georgia, look upon the Farmers
Alliance as friend and co-workel
with them in their efforts to rescue
our people from the expressions o
monopolies and protected industries
Resolved, 2. That this convention
pledges the Farmers Alliance it
earnest and hearty support in all o
its efforts to better the condition O
and elevate our agricultural elemen
and bid this noble organization Goo
speed in the great work it has un.
dertaken.
Resolved, 3. That we know the
farmers of our country to be the
most conservative people on earth,
and we feel that they will not use
any power they may possess or ac-
quire to the injury or detriment of
any other class of our people.

The people of this country paid last

The people Of this country paid last
year the neat sum of s70,000,0O0 in
taxes on their clothing, but the Re-
publicans are under the impression
that it is not half enough, 80 a
heavy increase of duties is proposed
on woods and wooden goods and a
tax of so per cent ad valorem will
be imposed on ready made clothing
composed of cotton vegetable fbres.
The Republicans fully appreciate
the fact that even if clothes do come
high the people are bound to have
them.

A meeting of the directors of the .. Il. d
N. Mining company was held in this city
Yesterday evening. The property OF the
company is situated in the Bitter Root
country about four miles distant from the
new railroad being built into the Occur
d,Alenes. One of the directors, who had
returned from the mine. stated that
the cross-cut at the 300-foot station had
inst encountered the vein and had pene-
trated it distance of eight feet, all in ore,
without striking the opposite wall. From
five to six feet of this ore samples seventy to
ninety ounces silver to the ton. The cross
cut at the 25O-foot station disclosed an ore
vein fifteen feet in width assaying over fifty
ounces of silver and it is reasonably as
sumed that the vein below is fully as wide,
if not wider. The o. r. & N. is undoubt-
edly one of the best in the country and is
in control of experienced miners. The de.
velopment is now sufficient to begin the ex-
traction OF ore. of which there is an i'm
nense reserve in sight. Shipments will be-
gin in short time.

The Copper Market.

The position Of the ingot copper market
is such that the stocks of the dividend
paying mines, with the encouraging out
look for the future, says the Engineering
and Mining Journal, cannot be forced down
by any amount of manipulation, and efforts
of that kind are generally followed by
higher prices than ever. The reports from
the mines are all of favorable character,
and indicate that the work of producing
copper is being pushed with great energy.
and the result will be seen later on in en-
HANGED values all round. In Calumet and
Hecla the dealings have been very light.

THE CRIMINAL RECORD
Four Persons Bound Over to tho Crane

Four Persons Bound Over to the Grand
Jury BY Judge Sanders.
If the criminal record continues to in
crease as it has done in the past few days
there will be plenty of work for the next
grand jury. -Four more candidates were
remanded to the county Jail yesterday to
appear before the district court, and each
of them is good for a lease of life in the
penitentiary. The new police force has
been doing creditable and effective work
lately in detecting crimes and criminals,
and SO far during the past two weeks not an
offender has escaped their vigilance.
About O'Clock yesterday morning two
highwaymen were captured after failure
on their part to hold man up. There
were three men arrested, Jas. Behan, C.
H. Livermore and James Mcclure
but upon examination no case was estab-
lished against the latter. who now breathes
the free and unadulterated air of the CAPT.
tai. Behan and Livermore were given a
hearing and were bound over by Judge San
ders. They met Fred Anderson in the
Colorado saloon last night and struck up an
acquaintance with him, knowing that he
had some money. About 2 o'clock in the
morning Anderson went out rear door of
the saloon, and as he did SO was struck a
dow on tEe neaQ winch knocked MIN OOWu,
but he gave such loud yell of blue murder
that the would-be thieves became alarmed
and fled. Three officers heard the cry and
each struck out in different direc-
ton, all pointing towards Clore
street. Sergeant Doueherty, who stood
near Bridge and Clore, intercepted
the three men who appeared ON Bridge
street about the same time from the dark
recesses of Clore street and the alley be-
tween that and Main, and leveling re-
volver upon them brought them to stand
still. The other officers, Callahan, Treacy
and Parker, who were in the chase, soon APP
peared and the men were placed in Jail.
Mcclure said that he was not in with tue
job, that he ran to the rear thinking there
was fight. AS he was considerably behind
the others he was released. Several wit
nesses were examined. some of them women
who saw the men running. They were re-
quired to appear before the district court.
Elmer A. Young, the young man who
was arrested for forgery, waived examina-
ton and was bound over to the grand jury.

yesterday for his attempt at burglary in

The Finding of Bottle in tho Missouri
and the Drowned Man.
On the 10th inst. The INDEPENDENT print
cd tho following special telegram from
northern Montana: ''Some men, while
walking along the Missouri river near
Half Breed rapids, about fifty miles from
Helena, a few days ego, found the follow
ing note in small bottle in the water:
SHOULD anybody find this, please let my
wife know of my death. George NJ. Hart
mann, Cleveland, Ohio A copy of this
note has been sent to the mayor of Cleve-
land, asking who the man is. His fate is
unknown"
It is now believed that the man who was
found in the Missouri river Wednesday by
Judge Hilger is the same who wrote the
note which was found in the bottle. The
bottle had evidently fioated down the river
several hundred miles from where it was
thrown in the river. and this clue leaves
! but little doubt that Hartmann committed
suicide.

On Thursday evening next that famous
actress Mile Rhea will open a three night
engagement in her new play, Josephine,
Empress of the FRENCH This is the piece
that has received such unqualified praise
from the New York and San Francisco
critics. If reports speaks truly Rhea is do
ing the best work of her life in the play.
In fact the eastern dramatic writer's are
unanimous in the expression of opinions
that a more perfect picture than Rhea as
the much wronged wife of Napoleon Bono
parte has never been seen on the modern
stage. During this engagement Mile Rhea
will wear several handsome gowns. Mr..
William Harris will play Napoleon Bona
parte. His makeup as the Little Corporal
is said to be work of art.

LOST A THUMB.
Acc,dent At !. PIanine Mil.

A painful accident happened at the plan
ing mill of Ketchum & De Noille yesterday
morning, which resulted in the loss of the
thumb of the right hand of w. G. E. Hilkey.
He is an experienced man in the bust ness,
having worked about planning mills for the
past seven years. About three weeks ago he
arrived in Helena from Seattle and has
since worked at his trade. Yesterday he
was engaged at the mortising machine and
in some manner got his thumb under the
chisel, and before he could remove it re-
ceived two cuts which nearly severed the
member. One of them was at the second
joint and left only little piece of flesh and
skin. The member was taken of and the
fractured joint removed in a skillful man
ner by DR.. Vincent Haight. The operation
was painful and difficult one and reflects
credit upon the attending physician.

The Iron Mountain.

Regular shipments are now being made
from the Iron mountain mine, which is sit
uated in the Bitter Root valley. -Four car
loads have been received at the sampling
works in this city during the week. an d
three more are on the way. The mine
never looked better than at present, and
the management expect to be able to ship a
car load every day for an unlimited time.
The ore runs about 800 to the ton, which
makes each car load worth $4,000. At this
rate the company will soon declare div
idend.
