Mr.. J. P. Blaize, an extensive real
estate dealer in Des Moines, Iowa,
narrowly escaped one of the sever
est attacks of pneumonia while in
the northern part of that State,
during a recent blizzard, says the
Saturday Reuieao, Mr.. Blaize had
occasion to drive several miles dur
ing the storm and was so thorough
" chilled that he was unable to get
warm, and inside of an hour after
his return he was threatened with
a severe case of pneumonia or lung
fever. Mr.. Blaize sent to the near
est drug store and got a bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, of
which he had often heard, and took
a number of large doses. He says
the effect was wonderful and in a
short time he was breathing quite
easily. He kept on taking the med
icine and the next day was able to
come to Des Moines. Mr.. Blaize
regards his cure as simply wonder
full. For sale by T. Flaws.

Making improvements.

Wilson & Co., the firm that has
leased the Gold Hill ranch in Ma
son Valley, will bring from Fresno,
Cal, a machine to level land that
requires "a horses to handle it. The
firm proposes to have sixty acres of
corn and several hundred acres of
grain growing next Summer on land
that is now covered with nothing
but sagebrush. This is the compa-
that proposes to start pork pack
ing establishment. The idea of
raising corn looks as though the
company knew how to raise and
fatten hogs.

Shooting at silver city.

Word reached here Thursday
morning of shooting ARRAY in
Silver City the night before in which
a Frenchman named Lalonde was
shot in the shoulder by Napoleon
Landry. The affair seems to be a
mysterious one. Sheriff Donnelley
went to Silver City Thursday morn
ing and arrested Landry and also a
man named Porrier, who claimed he
did the shooting himself. The row
was about SOME mining ground and
an arrastre, and Lalonde's version
of the affair is that he and Porrier
had a row in Laundry's saloon
about O. clock Thursday morning,
and were ordered out. They went
out on the sidewalk and Laundry
shot him. Porrier claims that
Lalonde came into the saloon drunk
and began to smash things up and
threatened to kill everybody, and
that he (Porrier) who was tending
bar got gun and shot him in the
arm as he thought his life was in
danger. Landry is out under $1,000
bonds and Porrier under $500
bonds. The case will be tried in
Silver City to-day.

Mr.. Eckels and the Broken bankers.

Chicago post
One of the most interesting, not
to say alarming, phases of the imam
cial situation is shown in the at
tempts of recently failed financial
banks to resume business. Another
interesting, but not alarming, phase
is exhibited by young Mr. EckeIs'
the comptroller of the currency, who
peremptorily forbids the unsuccess-
full bankers to resume. A chicago
concern which went to the wall only
the other day, has importuned Mr..
Eckels to be allowed to reopen It's
doors. So has a Dakota concern,
whose sole owner, in the guise OF a
national banker, carried on a Wild
cat speculative business until the
..close times" forced him to suspend.
Mr.. Eckels' reply to the Dakota
banker was peremptory. He told
the wiIdcatter that ..no banks doing
business under such methods" would
be permitted to use the name of the
government to regain the confidence
of the people. To the Chicago bank
ers the comptroller was equally firm.
The comptroller of the currency,
though he is said to lack an extern
sive technical knowledge of banking,
appears to have that which may be
OF equal value, namely, an abund-
ance of good horse sense. The SEN
timent of the country is in accord
with these official refusals. The
events of the past few weeks have
shown anew the desirability of keep
ing speculative business wholly apart
from banking. There is an undenla-
BILE stringency in the money market
and it will continue at least until the
government shall have given some
assurances of its financial poncy'
Meantime, people do not want wild
caters sitting in the seats of bankers
For the unlucky banks that have
gone to the wall to reopen their doors
would be to invite repetition OF
their former disasters in circum-
stances not nearly so easily borne.
