There is anly one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhamed con-
dition of the muscous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube
gets inflamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out, and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever. Nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an innamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.

A pEMENTED WOMAN
Breaks in Upon and Alarms State OFF,
ciaIs With Wild RavIngs.

The solemn precincts of the capitol
building were aroused yesterday by the
strange and weird song, cynical laugh
and altogether pitiful rawlings OF a semi
mad woman. The unfortunate woman
was Mrs. John Shaw. She rushed into
the office of Engineer Mead. Gov. Barber
and Auditor Burdick by turns and pro-
ceeded in the most impressive manner 10
lecture the occupants of the Offices or
make inquiries Of them just as the insane
demon with which she was possessed as
serted itself. She talked of spirits aud
policemen by turns. She imagined As
sistant State Engineer Naismith and
Auditor Burdick policemen and warned
them of the dire consequences hat would
be melted out to them If they should take
her to the asylum. The woman's hus-
band, John Shaw, appeared and tried to
prevail upon her to go home but her eyes
glared at him with a strong, insane glare
and abe yelled at the top of her voice that
he prosecuted her and she would not go
with him. Deputy Sheriff w. j. Wilk es
was telephoned for and came up and took
her down to the city police. She was
placed in the calaboose. The unfortunate
woman has been confined at the state in.
sane asylum at Evanston and in all proba.
bility will be sent there again.

THE ARID LAND BILL
A Correspondent Who Asks a Careful
Reading of the Measure

To the Editor of The Leader.
DOUGLAS, March 29.-The Lanham
cession bill Is preferable to the Warren
bill because it contains fewer restrictions.
However, the Warren bill is certainly en-
titled to be discussed in~telligently. Your
critical correspondents totally %misappre-
bend Its spirit and purpose. Mr.. Nor
CANS figures would be appalling had they
the remotest application to the question
in hand. But they have not. He as
sumes that it is proposed to tax the peo-
pie at large to raise money to construct
bitches. Nothing of the sort is proposed.
Yet that assumption is the foundation
upon which he bases his frigbtful mathe-
NAUTICAL array.
Again he assumes that the credit of the
state is to be pledged to raise the money.
Again he is entirely mistaken. The War
rem bill propose nothing of the kind.
The proposition Is simply to use the arid
lands as security for their own reclamation.
The only passage in the bill which sug
eests a means of raising o is section
8 which provides that the state may mort
gage, pledge or cenditionally sell the
lands themselves tor that purpose. 1t is
not proposed to tax the people at large a
single cent to reclaim arid lands.

says: MY attorney had come to Indian
apolis, had secured transportation for
Cheyenne and was almost on the point of
boarding the train when a message was
handed him from his wife In Tcrre
Haute, telling lin she was taken i'll very
suddenly and asked him to come to her.

BACK From the East.

George u. Masten, after a prolonged
absence at the Mount Clemens hot
springs returned home yesterday looking
as good as new. He feels very much i'm
proved in health and his friends are glad
to find him looking SO well. MIR. Masten
says business people in Chicago seem to
actually know more about Cheyenne's
smelter project than do the people here.
They look upon it as a foregoue conclu-
sion. He understood that a number OF
Chicago real estate men were just waiting
the moment the contract was signed and
work begun to swoop down on Cheyenne
and throw the town into q perfect fever
of real estate activity.

TIRED OF LIFE.
A Popular Gold Hill Young Lady At
tempts TO Suicide with Strvchnine.

Special Dispatch to The Leader.
GOLD HILL. Wyo.. March 2l.-Thil
community was shocked thus afternoon
about 8 o'clock by the announcement thai
Miss Marie Brown had attempted to com
nit suicide.
Miss Brown left the house of her
mother, Mrs. G. Miller, and called at
the Downey stamp mill Office where she
converted with some of her friends. She
left and was found about a half an hour
later in a fearful fit of commissions.
She was conscious. however. and when
asked what was the matter she replied
that she had taxed strychnine with a pre-
meditated suicidal intent.
Letters were found after a little search
ing which she had written to Mrs. Miller,
her mother. In these she said she was
tired oflife and did not want to live any
longer.
Miss Brown came here last December.
She was about 20 years old and a popular
young lady.

The Cbeyenne,s First Dividend.

Inc Suttcuhc' u blNiuChus
The total amount involved in the first
dividend of % per cent Of the Cheyenne
national bank, checks for which were re-
ceived from Washington, is a little over
$62, 900. There are IN all about 470
claims against the bank, some of which
have not yet been proven up and are
therefore not included in this division OF
the collected assets. Of the whole num-
Der of claims seventy are held by out Of
town parties and as these average with
the others IN amount it is calculated that
1fve-slxths of the entire amount of the
first dividend will remain in town. This
would be equivalent to $50, 900, of which
amount about one-half was paid out yes.
terday. All holding claims against the
bank must present their receivers certi6-
Gates at the bank in order to receive the
checks for their dividend.
The dividend had a very happy effect
on the community and much ofthe money
was scattered through the ordinary bust
ness channels. Another dividend of 25
per cent will probably be declared early in
June.

JACK PRATT CAUGHT.
He is Captured by the Boise City,
Idaho, Police.
Charged With Stealing About Four
Hundred Dollars.
His Partner In Crime Once Again
Behind the Bars.

The Cheyenne police force yesterday
from Marshal SchnitRer down, wore an
original. blooming and altogether lovely
smile. The reason for such an unusual
display from the brass buttoned blue
coats is easily manifested. Jack Pratt is
in the tolls. If all reports be true Jack
will soon be a regular boarder at the well
known institution at Laramie city. Here
is why Pratt is in the tolls: Drake Nor
gan, who was employed as a driver of
one of West Meyers hacks together with
John Shaw, a mau about town aud Pratt,
filed up to the brim on 10 cent liquor and
started out to take in the town" for all
that phrase implies. Drake Morgan
pulled the lines over a pair of Mr..
Meyers fiery blacks and ever and anon
also pulled at u big bottle of red eye.
Pratt and his pal, Shaw. followed suit
upon the latter plan of pulling and when
they all arrived at their temporary desti-
nation, some where in the classic haunts
of Chicago" Shaw had pulled at the
fire water" bottle once too often and was
pulled over on a sofa and to the best of
his knowledge Pratt and Morgan pulled
about $500 in cold. hard cash from his
inside pocket.
He reported the robbery next day to
the police and Morgan was pulled by
one of the "copper" but when the search
for Pratt began it was found that he had
SILENTLY stolen away" and could nowhere
be found.
Morgan had a preliminary hearing be-
fore Justice Lee and was bound over to
court 10 a small bond. BE ave bail for
his appearance and was released. Mean
while Marshal SchnitRer went to work to
apprehend Pratt. He wired and cores
pended with the officials every where he
thought there was any possibility of Pratt
being found. Yesterday he received a
dispatch from the marshal at Boise City,
Idaho. telling him that Pratt had been
arrested there and asking what he should
do with him. Marshal Sohnitger wired
the Boise officials to hold him until he
sent an officer to bring him to Cheyenne.
Policeman Bob ingalls, will leave on the
first west bond train for Boise. As soon
as the eurety for Morgan was apprised OF
the capture of Pratt he turned Morgan
over to the officer. and refused to vouch
longer for his appearance. Morgan was
Immediately taken to jail, where he will
be joined by Pratt as soon as Officer In
gals can bring him back.
John Shaw, the man who claims to
have been robbed, Is classed as a good for
nothing man about town. He frequents
low down dives, and spends money freely,
while his wife, who is crazy, roams the
streets almost raving. and his little child
rem are uncared for at home. The trio
are a pretty tough set from b~eginaing to

A medicine that has been a household
remedy for sixty years and used in that
time by more than $50, 900. 900 persons
must have great merit. Such a medicine
is found 10 Brandreth's Pills. This fact
illustrates the value of these pills better
than any statement of the proprietors.
1t will be observed that the dose required
to cure is small. One or two pills taken
every night for ten or twenty DAYS will
cure dyspepsia. costiveness, rheumatism
liver complaint, all female complaints and
weakness.
Brandreth's Pills are purely vegetable,
absolutely harmless, and safe to take al
any time.
