In the matter of ~curatives what you
want is something that will do its work
while you continue to do yours-a remedy
that will give you no inconvenience nor
interfere with your business. Such a
remedy is Allcock's Porous Plasters.
These plasters are not an experiment,
they have been in use tor over thirty
years. and their value has been attested
by the highest medical authorities, as
well as by voluntary testimonials from
those who have used them.
Allcock's Porous Plasters are purely
vegetable and absolutely harmless. They
require no change of diet and are not
affected by wet or cold. Their action
does not interfere with labor or business;
you can toll and yet be cured while hard
at work. They are SO pure that the
youngest, the oldest, the most delicate
person of either sex can use them with
great benefit.

afraid to trust us; there Is nc
other course but to provide such
limitations as our wisdom and experiences
seems to dictate. The difficulty in pro
viding these limitations is that this law
does not apply to Wyoming alone but to
the other ard states and territories as
we'll. and there will undoubtedly have to
be compromises and concessions. Look

BARNEY WANTS A DIVORCE.
A Petition Filed IN the Case OF Wilcox
VS., wilcox.


Barney E. Wilcox yesterday applied to
the district court for a divorce from his
wife, Nellie ]. Wilcox. The plaintiff re-
cites in his petition at great length his
reasons for pursuing such a course. He
married the defendant, Nellie Wilcox, in
1873, in the city of Burlington. VT, and
lived with her till 1891. He did so. how
ever, he states. from sheer necessity in
order to avoid a scandal. For years he
has been abused most shamefuIly by his
wife, Notwithstanding the fact he has
been as meek as a lamb and supported
her to the fullest extent of his ability.
One child has been born to the couple.
Her name is Jessie May Wilcox and she
is l6 years old. She is now in custody
OF the defendant. The Wilcox's have
lived in Wyoming for six months prior to
the filing OF the petition for divorce by
the plaintiff.

! Mrs. A. Isabel milford. of the univer-

for information as to whether Wyominp
intended to make a botanical exhibit al
the Worlds Columbian exposition. II
so, she wishes to know what encourage
ment. if any, she would receive if she en-
deavored to make a display of all the
principal shrubs. plants. etc., of the state.
Mrs. Milford has, she says, been a stu
len of botanical research both in this
country and in England for years, and
cites Mr.. Mead to some of the most noted
scientific educators in this country. Mr..
Mead. in reply to Mrs. Milford, will tell
her hat the Wyoming state university
will undertake to make such an exhibit,
and that outside of that it will probably
be powerless to continue the display in
that direction.

that the ides OF of March would only D

propriety call off their dogs. Last even
ing at 9 o'clock Signal Service Observer
Ravenscraft's thermometer registered %
below zero. The cold wave began some
where in the terra ~incognito north of
Minnesota and ranged southwesterIy.
There was no wind with it and it is one
of the very few of its sort that passes
through this country. By reason of no
wind being combined with the cold wave
1t travels rather slowly, and consequently
tarries over night in Cheyenne. The
worst, Mr.. R~avenscraft thinks, will have
passed by thus morning and by 10 O'Clock
the atmosphere will have moderated con-
siderably.

The horrible accident which oc-
Cured near Tivoli on Friday Aug.

to presume that the sad disaster
would have been obviated had
there been suitable guard rails along
the edge of the embankment instead
of the small useless logs. The tax

mand that all dangerous places along

huge copperhead snake, which
terminated in the death of both

attacked them. The smaller one
was dispatched by the young woman.

aid and was likewise bitten. Both
managed 20 get home where they
died in great agony two hours later.
Mr. Hardcastle who is the captain

being appraised of the awful calamity
that had overtaken his family, be.

The Band Screnaties Contractors

The LaPorte silver cornet band
gave the contractors of the W. d N.
B. railroad q serenade on Saturday
evening. The boys are considerable
out of practice, but all things con-
sidered, they did right well. Mr..
Gaynor presented the organization
with q ten dollar bill and it was un-
derstood that Mr.. Gleim was to de-
liver a speech, but owing to fatigue
and bad cold, requested 10 be ex-
cused, and suggested that a foot race
take the place Of a speech in the
evening exercises. This, Mr.. Gay
nor, who was master of ceremonies
readily approved of and said that
Paddy Quinn his barn boss could
get there with any of them. Mr..
Gleim had an idea that Harry Hill
their book keeper could get away
with Paddy and the match was soon
arranged. The ground was selected
on Main ST., between the Mountain
House and the corner of the Court
House square opposite the LaPorte
Hotel. Bets were even and the run
ners took their stand. f. I'll. Ing
ham was chosen rs starter and at
the drop of the handkerchief the
boys were off. 1t was very exciting
but Paddy got there just the same.

of good luck and success in the
work they have recently contracted

Good Reasons why the BOSSES
Should be Knocked Out.

Should be Knocked Out.
There are many reasons why the
majority of the Sullivan county
Democrats will not support the en-
tire ticket nominated by number
of the bosses of the party at theil
convention, held on the 9th Of Aug
lst. The bosses gave no atten-
tion to the wants of the majority o.
their voters, but pitched in head
foremost and made the selection to
suit themselves. The voters ol
Democracy say that any other man
in the county is preferable to Josh
Lull for Member, and that his re.
lations with the corporations have
not been endorsed by the people Of
Sullivan and in their judgment never
will be.
I'd. Mr.. Lull showed his con.
tempt for the people Of our county
when he loaded his household goods
for Minneapolis or some other place
Immediately after the 1888 campaign,
when the people of our county re.
fused to endorse him as our Member
at Harrisburg. This little incident
is still fresh in the minds of the
Sullivan county voters which gave
them the opportunity of seeing with
their own eyes just how much love
Lull has for the welfare of the Sulli-
van county people. They know too,
that his business relations here
would not detain him one second as
he has no real estate to dispose OF.
Sd. The better class of the Demo.
cratic party consider Mr.. Lull o
"heeler" and they condemn him in
harsh words for this ill gotten way
of making friends. If reports are
all true Josh will have to be mighty
SLY in making this campaign, should
he use his old time tactics. Demo-
Gratis who are displeased with his
nomination are after him with q red
hot iron.
4th. Mr.. 1.ull has resided in our
county in the neighborhood OF
twelve OF thirteen years during
which time he has paid but six dol
lars and forty-five cents county tax.
During this time, however, he has
invested in real estate in Minneapolis
where he pays very large tax.
This shows his contempt for Sulll-
van county and that he is only re-
naming here for the honors of this
office and to assist the corporations
at Harrisburg for the lucrative posi-
ton they have kindly given him.
1t does not appear to us that a
majority of our people with this
knowledge of Mr.. Lull-can give
him their support on the 9Th OF
November.
In reference to Mr.. Mahaffey every.
body knows that he is not compe-
tent and is not the proper man to be
trusted with the office of Sheriff
hence there is not a ghost of show
for his election. 1t would be wise
of Mr. Mahaffey to withdraw from
the field thereby saving for himself
the cost of a campaign and an over
whelming defeat. We shall in due
time publish Mr.. Mahafey's record
as Sheriff of Lycoming county which
will startle the reading public.
