for plaintiff of $S5 damages. Waterman,

B. j. Beers vs.. Moses johnson. Action
of trover for a quantity of lumber. The
evidence Of the plaintiff tended to show
that in August, 1890, he exchanged q
horse to defendant for pair of oxen,
and the defendant agreed to deliver at
Jamaica depot for plaintiff $25 worth Of
lumber, the difference in value between
horse and oxen. The defendant de-
livered lumber as agreed but before
plaintiff got ready to ship it, the defen-
dant shipped it instead. The defendants
evidence tended to show that the day he
began drawing lumber, he learned that
said horse was not what plaintiff repre-
sented and sent word to plaintiff to make
damage in the horse all satisfactory be-
fore shipping lumber; that after waiting
a reasonable length of time, and plaintiff
failing to put in an appearance he
shipped lumber to other parties. The
| show that he had received no word from
defendant. Verdict for plaintiff of $25
damages. Waterman, Martin & Hit for
plaintiff; Cudworth and Read for defen-
dant.
S. H. Sherman, assignee, VS.. E. L.
Roberts. Action to recover the value of
certain property purchased by defendant
of j. E. Jacobs in defraud of insolvent
laws. The evidence of plaintiff tended
to show that defendant purchased of
Jacobs in June, 1891, the Elliot street
bakery in BrattlebOro at an agreed price
of a little over $1,000 and paid him by
mortgage, which defendant held against
Jacobs. Roberts sold same property to
one F. w. Marshal for $1,000; that said
Jacobs reputation for solvency was
not good at the time of the trade and
that defendant had reason to believe him
insolvent, when the trade was made.
Verdict for defendant. Waterman, Mar

torpid liver or disordered action results. Hence
the bile, which is waste and poisonous material
designed to be expelled. is not properly secreted
and eliminated from the body. Thus retained, it
causes indigestion, dyspepsia, gas, bloating,
biliousness, constipation, bad taste, headache.

larly during Spring. weak, languid and tired
feeling. If not cured, this condition leads to
fatal liver and kidney diseases. All persons
need medicine to stimulate and regulate the

effect upon the nerves and liver and thousands
who had this disease have never recovered their

The best remedy and most certain cure for

Senator Stanford's bill providing for
the creation of division of silk culture
in the department ofagriculture, in order
to encourage and develop the culture of
silk, was reported favorably to the senate
from the committee on agriculture in an
entirely new form. The revised bill pro-
vides that the division of entomology in
the agricultural department shall take
charge of the matter. The secretary of
agriculture is directed to establish a
number of silk experiment stations, not
exceeding five, to be located in different
parts of the United States, with a view to
developing silk culture, and $4,000 is ap-
propriated for each station established.

patch from Lord Salisbury on Behrinq

Our town may be said to contain
some citizens of little enterprise and
some who would not invest a single
whitesquarter if they did not see
how it could grow into fifty cents
within ten days or less. But there
is one thing commendable about
these same fellows: If home talent
gets up a show they will p%atronize
it to a man. 1t takes an extremely
good outside fake to get here even a
little support. Outside newspapers
seldom succeed in securing support
in the way of advertising. 1t is a
city of death to book agents. And
since the Lehman racket, bids fair to
become one of death to confidence
men. But let a home institution be
started, let home society plan a pub
lie entertainment and the way the
hills deliver up their denizens would
surprise slow eastern natives beyond
any belief.

ANOTHER OLD TIMER GONE
A Montana Pioneer Run Over by a
Train Near BearmOuth.

George Brock n of the best
known mining men of Deer Lodge
county, who was run over and killed
by the west-bound passenger train
at Bearmouth Friday evening, Dec.
2, will be remembered by many OF
the early residents Of Deer Lodge
county, he having been at different
times during the early sixties locat-
ed in the placer fields of Yam Hill,
Gold creek and Pioneer. He located
several placer claims in Deep gulch,
near Bearmouth, in 1866, which
yielded him a good living since that
time.
His remains were buried at New
Chicago, and the tear stained eyes of
the little band of prospecters who
escorted them there speak volumes
for the Industrious, upright and hon
orable miner. Thirty years of toll
in the mountains in search of the
yellow metal found George Brock
not a wealthy man. He died poor
as regard financial matters, but had
untold riches in the friendship and
esteem of his feIlowmen.-Inde-

Sign painters, portrait painters and

facture of campaign banners. The two
sides of a campaign banner are easily
made in stencil factories, but are very
troublesome when done by hand. The
names and portraits are painted on mus

then paints the notices. When both
sides are completed n section is placed
on the floor. painted side down. and
over this a net is placed: then the other
part is fitted to this above the net and
the two parts are sewed together with
waxed thread by the sailmaker.

Who Pays for the Protection?

A curious question has arisen in Mani
toba in connection with the efforts of
the local government to prevent the
threatened epidemic of smallpox. When
the disease broke out in Morden a shop
keeper was attacked by it and died.
His stock was seized by order of the
government, and is still held. The mer-
chandise is valued at 800 200, and besides
being the security for what is due the
creditors is the sole estate left to the
widow. She is now claiming damages,
but the government denies that it has
incurred any liability. The goods were
seized for the protection of the public,
and the public, through it's representa-
tives, refuses to pay for being protected.

had two parents, four grandparents,
eight great-grandparents, and so on.
Consequently, if we took into account
the twenty-five generations that had
elapsed since the conquest, instead of
being descended from somebody who
came over in 1866, we should find, by
a simple process of geometrical progress
sion, that we were descended directly
and equally from another 5000, 900 OF
people, who lived at or about that date
