Part in the Albany Concert.
Mrs. I. j. Simmons, Miss Annie Peay
and Messrs. G. B. Gri ggs and T. D. Sale
assisted in church concert at Albany
last Thursday evening. In speaking of
them and the parts they took in the en-
tertainment, the Albany News and Adj
vertiser says:
Mrs. Simmons recitation, "The Rev
olutionary Rising" was superb. She
was applauded to the encore and re-
sponded with humorous selection en-
titled, Listen to My Tale of Woe, {"
which entirely convulsed the audi
ence.
Miss Peay gave a beautiful rendition
of Robert tot que' Jaime" which suis-
ed her voice admirably.
Mr., t. D. sale possesses an unusually
well cultivated bass voice and his
solo, "The Bugler," was highly enjoyed.
The vocal duet, "The Storm" that
was sung by DR.. Griggs and Miss Peay,
was beautiful. AS their exquisitely
trained voices blended together in har-
monious accord, the entire audience was
captivated.
Mrs Simmons superb soprano voice
was never heard to better advantage
than in "Stella de Nevada" The Sc
lection was difficult one, but was fault
lessly rendered.
DR.. Chas. Griggs charmed the audi
ence with the very expressive manner
in which he sang, 81 am Waiting.

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs CT the body are under the con-
troll of the yserve centers, located in or near
the base of the brain, and that when these are
deranged the yrgans which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When it is re-
membered that a serious injury to the spinal
cord will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point because the nerve force IS
prevented by nhe injury from reaching the
paralyZed portion, it will be understood how
the arrangement of the nerve centerS Will
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
TWO-thirds Of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base of the brain, not from derange-
ment primarily originating in the organ it
self. The great mistake OF physicians IN
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centerS which
are the cause of the trouble.
DIR. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated Spe-
cialist, has profoundly studied this subject for
over 20 years. and has made many important
discoveries in connection with It, chief among
them being the facts contained in the above
statement and that the ordinary methods OF
treatment are wrong. All headache diZzi-
ness, dullneSS, confusion, pressure, bIueS,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy st.
matter how caused. The wonderful success of
DIR. Miles Restorative NerVine Is due to the
fact thatitis based on the foregoing principle.

FOUND AT LAST.
The Body Of Arthur Goodrich Discovered on
Mcdonald Creek by VIM. Maddox.

From John Cameron, who was in from
Mcdonald creek first of the week we learn
of the finding. of the remains of Arthur
Goodrich, who disappeared from Van
Spalding's ranch Nov. 27th, 1891, and of
whom nothing had been heard since. Our
readers will remember the circumstances
of his disappearance and the note which he
left saying; Il hope all will forgive me. /
am tired Of living and want to die. This
is my fathers address, H. b. Goodrich,
Walton, Delaware Co., New York" Ru-
mors of foul play were spread abroad, but
nothing found to substantiate them. His
father visited this section in the following
April and e~ndeovored to obtain some
trace OF his son, but in vain.
Last Thursday VIM. Maddox, who has
"A small bunch of cattle on Black Tail, was
riding in search OF a strayed heller, when
in the brakes on the south side of Melon
aid creek about three-qunrters OF IA mile
from the old Spalding ranch, he came upon
the body Of "a man. Not having known
Goodrich he was not certain OF the identity
and rode at once to Henry ~Steiubuek's. or
Dutch Henry" as he is more Familiarity
known, and asked Henry odescribe Good
rich's appearance when last seen. Stein
buck had been an intimate friend of Good
rich and had been the asst to see him alive.
Henry said he wore a pair of new boots,
purchased in California, blue overalls and
a suit OF striped clothing. This agreeing
with the appearance of the body, the two

exclaimed. That is Arthur Goodrich. :"
Upon investigation his pockete were found

Friday, I. j. Frost held an inquest over
the remains after which the body was in

lars and the contents of the pockets have
been mailed to the father of deceased, who
no doubt, will be grateful to learn of
the result as even assured death is better
than uncertainty 1t is unqucstionably "A
fact, asat first stated, that Goodrich took
strychnine and then wandered in the hills
to die, but the strangest part OF the mat
ter is that two years should have elapsed

A Letter From Mr.. Fergus on Taxes.

EDITOR ARGUS:
Some three weeks ago an article APP
peared in a Lewistown paper, which
have mislaid, but think it was the
Democrat, from the pen of Represent
ative Goodell on the subject of taxes.
| have waited so far for some younger
and ADLER writer to notice it. There
is no doubt about our taxes being out
of all proportion to the benefits de-
rived from them. We are a patient
people. grumble a little at tax paying
time, then let politicians manage
things again to suit themselves. A
taxpayer has a right to state his own
case James Fergus Il Sons taxes
this year are over IL per cent OF their
gross income and all the return they
get for this expenditure is the stock
inspection for which we pay a special
tax and about twenty dollars worth
of work on roads. We have no school
here, no wolf bounty, and the only
officer we see is the assessor; but the
commissioners are not to blame for
all this as Mr.. Goodell would seem to
imply. Its foundation probably lies
in our constitution allowingtoo many
sessions of our legislature; and with
our legislators in holding long, useless
sessions at great expense to the tax
payers, and voting for high salaries
and other expenses. | cannot forget
Mr.. Goodell's modest and gingerlv re-
ply to my letter in the ARGUS previ-
Gus to the last election, asking candi-
dates for the legislature whether they
would vote, if elected, to reduce sala-
ries to a fair and just equivalent for
the services rendered, viz: that he
would vote to reduce them where they
were too high, or words to that effect,
and which would have defeated him
but for the election of a United States
senator. There is no use mincing
matters. There Is generally a clique
about all our county seats in which
more or less of the county officers or
candidates for county offices are the
prime movers. Representatives or
candidates for representatives, de-
pending largely on them for nomina-
ton and election have to reward them
by salaries two or three times as high
as they can get from private parties
