Continuation of Their Experience

Continuation of Their Experiences.
RArTLEsNAKE CAMP, April %, 1892.
AS Sperry is going down to a ranch on
the Shrinking water, and there is a posi-
bility of-this reaching you before I get
home, I will give you a brief sketch of
the remainder of our journey. We found
before we got across the desert that the
phrase, pulling u freight" was very
appropriate, as it was very heavy work
for the horses. The country was not
billy, but a sloping plain covered with
cactus and sage, with the accent on the
cactus. Some of the way there was no
vegetation whatever. Soil mostly a brick
colored gumbo. We dined on a little
stream called Pole Cat. The water was
anything but inviting, even to a very
thirsty man or beast. However. the
horses drank and we took our noon
lunch dry.
AS we approached the end Of our
journey we began to see an occasional
spear of grass, and it increased in fire.
quency until W. found fairly good feed
at u evening camp. Antelope appeared
IN proportion to the feed, and we saw
them in every direction as we pulled
into camp. l took several Intellectual
shots at long range, and we took bacon
for breakfast. Our next days travel was
over a quite pretty valley along the
Sinking Water to Corbet. Corbet is a
promising little city (promises never to
be any larger) consisting of hotel. stage
station and post office, all in one house
with two rooms. The scenery is beauti-
full, but somewhat limited, as one cannot
see in any direction more than three or
four hundred yards. except upward. The
bluffs along the river are very high and
very abrupt. The river was quite high
and muddy from the melting snow, and
our efforts at trout fishing were of no
avail-more bacon for breakfast.
We reached Mr.. Frost's at about 7 D.
M. next day and found a welcome recep-
ton. MIR. Frost Is proprietor of a road
ranch and can entertain to the queens
taste. He used to be a resident of Bis.
marck, but thought Horace Greeley's
advice was all right; you see where he
is. Miss Jeanette Ward is with them
and says she doesn't think there is any
place quite like Wyoming. She is teach
ing the school.
Tuesday we saddled up horses and
Went over into the hills; suffice it to say
we are not eating bacon any more. We
have had fresh meat and fish since, and
we will take a jump from Frost's to
Rattlesnake Camp on R~attlesnake creek,
where we are tonight. The spring has
been very cold and backward, and ii
SHOWS nearly every day. Sheep, elk and
deer are very abundant, but we are pro,
hlbited from killing them by the laws OF
Wyoming. Elliott killed a lynx yester.
day, and to-day I shot a mountain lion
that measured 9 feet l inch from tip tc
tip. No bear yet, but we hope for warmer
weather; they will be swooping around
soon.

"A query.
The following notice from a Portland
paper has been received by the TRIBUNE,
with the attached comment:
G. A. Lounsbury. a Wholesale liquor
dealer of Bismarck,N. D., is at the Perkins.
How is this for a prohibition state?
Grand Forks Herald: While every.
body in town is cleaning his backyard,
it might not be amiss for the authorities
to take some steps to have removed the
countless number Of empty beer kegs
which line both sides of DeMers avenue.
The sight Of q dozen piles of ''empties"
here and there along the principal
streets will give outsiders the impression
that the principal occupation Of our cit
liens is drinking beer.

Columbus Day, October IL, 1892.
Message to the public school teachers
of America, from the executive commit
tee appointed by tile superintendents of
education.
To the teachers Of the American pub
lie schools, the executive committee of
the Columbian public school celebration
sends the following message:
The 400th anniversary of the discovery
of America will be the most important
of the centennial o~bservances through
which we have passed. It will be
marked in Chicago by the dedication of
the Columbian exposition grounds; and
should be celebrated everywhere in
America by fitting exercises.
To the public schools this day pre-
sents a great opportunity. 1t is in their
power to make themselves the centers of
all local demonstrations.
This leadership by the public schools
was first proposed by 'The Youths Com
panion." The worlds congress auxiliary
Of the Columbian exposition, Through it's
preside Mt, followed with a request that
the day be celebrated Systematically
throughout America, and suggested that
the public schools lead in each local Gel
ebration. f-.-
The department of superintendent
of the National Educational association.
at its annual meeting in February, 1892,
Endorsed the proposal and appointed the
state superintendent of education as a
general committee to. lead the celebra-
ton in their several states. An execu-
tive committee was also elected to pre-
pare a uniform program for use in every

Is C4TIRRH

Answer No, and for the Following Rea-
sons.
The various kinds and modes of local
applications for catarrh, such as sprays,
atomizers, douches, inhalants, fumiga-
lions, creams, ointments, lotions, gargles,
etc., ETC., have in many cases a soothing
effect on the infamed surfaces, and are
sometimes useful to assist a cure: but
neither of them nor all of them together
ever did or ever will cure q case OF
catarrh. These things may give tenn
porary relief, but it is useless to expect a
cure of them. Catarrh is not a local
disease, hence a not be cured by local
treatment. The only hope of success in
the permanent cure of a case of chronic
catarrh is to devise some remedy that
Will STIMULATE the nerves which supply
the capillary blood vessels. There is but
one remedy that has the most desirable
effect, and that remedy is Pe-ru.na.
This remedy strikes at once at the root
OF the catarrh by restoring to the capil-
larry vessels their healthy elasticity.
Pe-ru-na is not a temporary pallia,
tive, but a radical cure. Its action
il necessarily slow, but permanent.
The reason that there are any failures
is either because the catarrh is compli.
Gated by some organic disease or the pa
tient does not take the medicine long
enough. The majority of people expect
to be cured in a week or two of catarrh
that has run for ten or fifteen years.
Such people are nearly always disap-
pointed. Pe-ru-na will cure a recent
case OF acute catarrh in a few DAYS or
weeks, but when the disease becomes
chronic it takes longer. In no case
should any One leave off taking Pe-ru-na
until after writing L Or. Hartman, as a
letter from him is almost sure to point
out the of the failure.
A valuable pamphlet of thirty.two
pages, setting forth in detail the treat
ment of catarrh, coughs, colds, sore
throat, bronchitis and consumption, in
every phase of the disease, will be sent
free to any address by The Fortuna
Drug Manufacturing Co., of Columbus,
Ohio.

EDITOR TRIBUNE: In your editorial
of this date on Russian affairs you have
done the czar great injustice. By read
ing the report of the Minnesota relief
commissioners, McReeve, Edgar and
Phelps, who just returned from the
famine stricken districts, and who met
the cza and many other leading Rus
slams, you will ascertain that the car
has done just what you ask "why he has
not done it," and much more. He has
given one-half of his annual allowance
and savings of years, amounting to $780,
100000, direct to the sufferers; also Of
fcially has, through giving to public i'm
provements, inaugurated specially to give
work and aid to the famine striker, over
$65,000,O00, and in this relief he is sup
ported by the wealthy leading people of
Russia, many going into the interior to
help. You will find the report of the
commissioners in the Minneapolis
Journal of the 9TH, and in order to do
full justice you should publish a portion
of that report. There has not been in
this century so great a number of people
reduced to starvation as in Russia at
this tins. If we are not able to help we
certainly should give credit to those who
are and do. Yours,
FARMER WALLACE.

Memorial Day.

COMRADES: Again Memorial day
draws near. The day that should bring
the past with it's glorious achievements
it's unequaled h%ardships and it's final tri-
umphs very near to is. The day on
which, with softened hearts and tender,
hands, we should strew the graves of our
departed comrades with choicest flowers.
The commander does not desire, has
no right to prescribe any special forms
or methods for the observance, but he
earnestly desires all posts of the depart
ment to properly observe the day.
All posts should make arrangements
to attend church in a body on Memorial
day, and to this end it would be we'll to
select the minister to deliver the m
ial sermon.
Each post will observe Memorial day
as they think advisable, but the COM
mander would suggest that they invite
the public generally, and especially the
school children, to take part with them.
We must remember that the children
of today are the men and women of the
future, and that they may be able to act
we'll their part when the time comes.
Their education should be carefully at
tended to now, and especially should 10y
atty and love of country be 1nstilled into
their minds. In this, Grand Army posts
can and should assist. A few more
years and the old soldiers will have
passed away, and it seems to me that we
can be mustered out when the time
with less regret if we know the genera.
ton to follow are thoroughly imbued
with loyalty and devotion to country,
and will not let the old flag which we
defended and maintained, be dishon-
ored. By order of

The Grand Forks fire department pro-
test vigorously against the appointment
OF a chief by the mayor. It has been the
custom OF the department since it's Or
ganization to have its wishes in regard
to their chief recognized by the mayor.
The department has always held an
election, chosen its officers, and SUBJ
mitted them to the mayor and council
for confirmation, but on this occasion
the mayor and council disregarded the
wishes OF the fremen. Resolutions were
adopted protesting against the appoint
ment.
