THE sHADOWGRAPHER.

/ found Martin Hotter yesterday IN the
Cosmopolitan lobby, iuat returned from =
pleasant trip TO California. Mr. Holtof
was one al the gentlemen who saw hill
F.irweather In San Fgancinco. In talking
about the matter he said; 1.-THE man was
bill Fairweather. knew him years ago IN
Alder gulch, and did business with him.
sav this man AZ the Russ house, in SAP
Francisco. six weeks ago. Although | had
not seen him in many years, shou0nt !
knew him. He looked at me IN an enqulr~
ing way, n so one day We stopped on the
stairway Of the hotel.
II think / know you," he said.
II am from Helena" l replied.
Eyes, and your name is Hotter. My name
il Fairweather."
"What, Bill Fairweather?"
Eyes, SIR"
~
After this conversation We fell to talking
about old times in the gulch. we spoke
about a lumber deal which l had with him.
Afterward Con kohrs, Dick Jockey and w.
G. Gillette met and talked with him and all
will swear that he was Bill FairweAther
Mr.. kohrs is particularly emphatic on the
identity Of this man. They knew each other
in the early days and once had adjoining
claims. Fairweather is a man OF my height
and is of sandy complexion. He looks very
much as he did at Alder, except that no 10
older. never knew any Ton Fair weather,
but I did know Bill, and this was the man.
Any doubt that he was not never entered
our heads. 1 asked him if he had given up
his habit Of riding q horse into a saloon and
treating the crowd. He replied that he had
sown his wild oats and was now prospecting
and living happily with his family"
~
After talking with Mr.. Hotter ! met Col.
De Lacy, who is positive that Fairweather
is dead. though he did not attend the fun
eral. A gentleman who stood near added
that he assisted in taking care OF Fair
weather three days before he died at Days
ranch. The weight of evidence is with the
theory that Bill Fairweather is dead because
of the positive assertions of SO many old
timers who were in Virginia at the time
of the funeral. At the same time here
come reputable men with assertions equally
positive that they actually saw MI. FAIR
weather and conversed with him. If this
man was not Bill Fairweather it is a most
remarkable case of mistaken identity. 1t
is a mystery still, but it will be solved be-
fore long.

The genial landlord Ed Zimmerman
stopped me in the corridor yesterday: "Why
dom the papers say something about the
meat trust. Every time these butchers
have a meeting they raise the price of meat
one cent a pound. Look here. On March
Is pork was worth six cents, mutton, eight
cents, and beef u cents. Now the prices
are pork. 10 cents, mutton II cents and beef
16 cents. The prices are 40 per cent. higher
than a year ago. l don't believe this is
right. I understand that the trust is we'll
organized and that all of the buying is
done by one firm. In a hotel whore many
people are fed at pretty low rates the diff
erence in the price of meat as l have shown
is very large. Then there are the poor fam
lilies of ~workingmen who have to look out
for every cent to make the ends meet. All
his is in the country of beet"

BLAINE IS THERE ALONE.

Air: When Bonnie Went A-wooing."
Hail and farewell, oh, friends of mine,
(You are my friends, you know;)
Hail and farewell, dire straits compel,
And homeward must go.
I've shaken hands and fiattered you,
Partaken of your cheer,
And trust it is not vain to hope
That you will hold me dear.
I've eaten all you've offered,
From apricot to pone,
But ! must get to Washington,
Where Blaine is all alone.
In all the busy, busy days,
And all the weary nights,
This thought is ever present,
And nothing me delights;
And | can think of nothing else,
I've nothing more to say;
The world il wide, but by my side
This specter is TO stay.
Your Golden Gate cannot compare
With my Potomac Flats
Oh, sad, indeed, the fate of men
Vino wear their grandpas' hats!
Professions and receptions
They almost make me groan:
l want to get to Washington.
Where Blaine is all alone.
What he will do while Pm way
The Lord alone can tell;
He'll surely get u cinch OH me, -
He's likely to raise-well,
IF Won only knaw him az do
You'd understand my fears;

A-tumbling round my ears.

Since l have been away,
And Foraker ia out for him
And there's the deuce to pay;
He's always been quite big enough,
But he's still bigger grown.
And must get to Washington.
Where he is all alone.
Then faster turn protected wheels
Upon protected rails.
Before the danger in the east
All western prospect pales;
For birds within the bush are less
Than that within the hand,
And very shaky is the ground
Wherein these days stand,
And scanty harvest shall | reap,
From what Eve thus far sown,

And Blaine is there alone.

Most people are fond of a~cx-tremes." Those
who have never given the matter any thought may
consider this a remarkable statement, but let them
reflect Just a little and they will sustain our asser-
ton. Say for instance, your appetite is not as good
as it should be; you resort to relishes, and you
want them either extremely sour or very sweet,
very salty, or very spicy. 1t is with your other
wants just as it is with your appetite. You have
all the clothes you need, you can make this do and
can make that DO. All at once you enter a store
see some article which pleases your taste, as a good
dresser it takes something "EXTREME'' to allure
YOU to buy. We show EXTREMES in all
departments of our large store. No matter how
much your purse permits you to pay for a thing,
YOU want the latest something different from what
your neighbor is wearing, if possible, something
extremely stylish. We show not only "EX-
TREMES," as just stated, but immense varieties
of new and tasty wearing apparel for men, boys
and children. Have you ever seen those Extreme
chiidren's suits ? Our shoe department is replete
with all the best markets produce. Prices in all
our departments low enough to enable everybody
to purchase. If we have fitted you out already
this season, call again.

soma of our readers:
SCARLET FEVER AND DTHTHERIA.

per; if red pepper is used take one
half teaspoonful; one teaspoonful of
salt; one teaspoonful of vinegar.
Put these into tea cup and fill it
with boiling water. Take a table
spoonful at intervals, until the fever
is broken up. Take no physic if pos
sible, but if the bowels must be
moved take little senna or castor
oil. The writer can say that in
cases of scarlet fever there is scarce
ly such a thing as fail. 1t has been
used in the neighborhood where the
