Whenever a mine commences to
show up it's richness litigation some
how or other crops up with it also.
This is exemplified in the case
at Cherry creek the other day in
which the Fetterlys and Winnie
figured as defendants, L. NJ. Olden,
being the plaintiff. The above de-
PENDANTS entered the mine which
Mr.. Olden claims he has owned for
years and took out about 8 tons
Of gold ore which it is said yielded
1920. The recent suit has re-
suited in the defendant being en-
joined from working the property.

OF demonetizing silver was demon
in spirit if not in body. As proof
thereof We call attention to the
present depression of business the
want Of employment by millions Of
persons the reduction of business
efforts, Of market prices and the
hundreds of thousands of impover-
ished farmers, merchants and labor
ing people, manv Of whom have
been led to suicide through want

the consequences Of demonetization

MOSCOW MATTERS.

From the Mirrer, 14th inst.
On Thursday afternoon some thief
entered the home of Mrs, Garrett, while
she was attending the me sting of the
State Teachers Association at the uni
verslty and robbed her of $25, a gold
watch and a number of other yaluables.
The robbers left no trace of their iden-
tity and it is probable will never be cap
tured.
Wednesday evening some person en-
tered the house of Joe Decker and robbed
him Of about $50 in money and O. her
valuables. The thief was evidently some
one who knew that Mrs. Decker was
away and that ] oe would not be at home
so early in the evening. Everothing in
the house was piltred. No clue to the
thieves.
Last week Tommy Daggett, son OF G..
w. Dagget;, who resides five miles north
of Genesee, met with an accident which
it is thought will prove fatal. He had
been to the mountains for load of log
wood and while returning and near W.
N. Buchanan's on Little Potlatch, the
sled upset and he fell under he load of
logs. His hips and BODY were badly
SIN ashed and at last accounts the ply 81
claus in charge had given up all hope
of saving his life.
On Wednesday afternoon, John Ham
ilton's little boy met with an accident
while coasting which made him pretty
sore for few days. He was coasting
on the hill on Sixth street near the NJ.
E. church and lost control Of the sled
and was dashed against the fence. He
was badly bauised and report gained
currency that he had been killed, but he
was only badly shaken up and will be
none the worse for his experience in a
short time.

THE TOLEDO WEEKLY BLADE.

OF the now nearly twenty thousand
regular publications in the United States,
there are but two or three weekly news
papers published for general circulation
in everv state and territory, and of these
the Toledo Weekly Blade is the best and
most popular of them all. 1t Is the old
est, best known, and has the largest cir
culation, For more than twenty-five
wears it has been a regular visitor to
every part of the Union, and it is we'll
known to every one of the sixty thous-
and odd post offices of the country. 1t
is made especially for family reading.
1t gives the entire news of the world
each week, in such condensed form as
will save reading scores of pages of daily
papers to get less information. Repub-
iican in politics, Temperance in prin-
ciple, always on the side of justice and
right, it is just the paper for the rising
generation, and great educator for the
whole family. Serial stories, wit and
humor, short stories, household depart
ment, question bureau, farm depart
ment, camp fire, Sunday school and
Young folks are few of the many other
prominent features of this great paper.
A specimen copy will be mailed free to
any address on application, and the pub
fishers invite any person to send in a
long list of addresses to whom they will
mail sample copies. They would be glad
to mail couple of hundred specimens
to readers of this county. The weekly
Blade is very large paper, and the
price is only one dollar year.

A REMEDY For pIPHTHERIA.

Miss s. II. Greene, of Philadelphia.
Pa. sends the following, which may be
worthy of the attention OF physicians,
nurses and patients:
Reading Of the ravages which dlph-
liberia is making in your city. l am
moved to send for publication IN your
paper a prescription which has been
published and has been known to be
successful in many instances where
the sufferer has been given up as IN
durable.
Take a spoonful each of turpentine
and LIQUID tar; put them in a tin pan or
cup and set fire to the mixture, taking
care to have larger pan under 1t as a
safeguard against the spread OF the
flames. A dense resinous smoke arises,
making the room dark. The patient
Immediately experiences relief, the
choking and rattle stop, the patient
falls into a slumber and seems to lnhale
the smoke with pleasure. The iDrlnus
membrane soon becomes detached and
the patient coughs up microbes which,
when caught in a glass, may be seen to
dissolve in the smoke. In the course
of three days the patient entirely re-
covers. Before using the ingredients
named II is well to remove or cover up
closely any articles in the room that
will be injured by the thick smoke.
If YOU will spread the knowledge OF
this simple remedy, many lives may be
saved. 1t is always necessary after
diphtheria to avoid any eXertion what
ever until perfect strength has been re-
stored. Many people do not know the
danger of heart failure when the seems
cOnvalescent.

ing, has just reached here from Wins

a highly respected citizen, together
with his aged wife, lived near Perkins
vile, a small village, where they con-
Quoted a country mercantile store. AT
u o'clock Saturday night two shots
were fred through the windows Of the
house in which Copp and his wife were
sleeping, instantly killing the old man,
The murderers then pillaged the store
and attempted to burn it and the resi-
dence.
Indignant neiehbors we're soon in
search Of the guilty. Suspicion pointed
to q negro named Dan Mcdonald and a
half breed Indian named VIII Carter,
who previously boosted Of having killed
two negro men and an Indian woman
Before the posse reached McDonald's
house they were joined by Carter, who
by his overzealous efforts to implicate
Mcdonald, sealed his own fate. Nc
Donald attempted to escape when he
espied the armed men, but was riddled
with bullets. Z he half breed was taken
to the swamp and hanged. The stolen
plunder was found in the dead negro's
house, and his wife admitted that Nc

TRAIN HELD t1P.
A ALABAMA GREAT SOUTHERN
TRAIN HELD UP.
Train stopped on Long Trestle by
Three Men and the Express Car
Robbed.

A dispatch from Meridian, Miss.
says: The passenger train on the Ala
bama Great SUutherr Railroad, due at
this place at 9:35, was held up by
masked men Monday night, and rob
bed between Livingston and York sta
ton, Ala. After the train had pulled
out from Livingston three men with
handkerchiefs tied over their faces,
climed up from the blind baggage TO
the coal box and covered Engineer
Charles Elliott aHd his ffcmaii with
pistols. Orders were given to stop the
train on the long trestle over the creek
about five miles abov6 Livingston. and
when that point was reached the train
was brought 10 a standstill, the bag
gage and express car being pulled over
while the passenger coaches and sleep
ers remained on the trestle. One Of
the robbers remained OH tie engine
with the fireman, while the others
forced the engineer to 60 with them to
the express car and call the express
messenger. Recognizing the voice of
engineer Elliott, the messenger, Ed
Stewart, opened the door, and was at
once covered with two pistols. The
robbers entered the car and forced
Stewart to open his safe and deliver
the contents, which is said to have
been very insignificant. Having made |
ALMOST a complete water haul tie rob
bers entered the baggage car, where
they opened grip and took out num-
Der Of cartridges. AS s06B 80 tile train
was stopped on the trestle Conductor
Paul went forward to ascertain the
cause and his lantern was taken away
from him and he f1ade 10 Hold up his
hands. He then realized the situation,
but remembering that another train
was following, and that if it was to
overtake and telescope the one that
was then being robbed while on the
trestle, fearful wreck would insue, in
in which event there would necessarily
be great luos Of life, he asked permis-
sion to go to the rear Of the train to see
about the danger signal. AS he passed
through the coaches he informed the
of the robbery that was be-
ng committed, and then every one en-
leatOred to secrete their valuables
The amount secured is not known.
