Small Pox Remedy.

A correspondent of the Stock
ton (Cal.) Herald writes as fol-
lows: Il herewith append a re-
cipe which has been used, to my
knowledge, in hundreds of cases.
1t will prevent or cure the small
pox, though the pittings are fill
ing. When Jenner discovered
cow-pox in England, the world OF
science hurled an avalanche OF
fame upon his head, but when the
scientific school of medicine In
the world-that of Paris-publis-
he'd this recipe as a panacea for
smallpox it passed unheeded. 1t
is unfailing as fate and conquers
in every instance. 1t is harmless
when taken by we'll person. 1t
will also cure scarlet fever. Here
is the recipe, as l have used 1t
and cured my children of scarlet
fever, and to cure smallpox, when
learned physicians said the pa
tient must die; it cured.
Sulphate of zinc, l grain, fox
glove (digitalis), l grain: half a
tablespoonful of sugar; mix with
two teaspoonful of water. When
thoroughly mixed add four ounces
of water. Take a spoonful every
hour. Either disease will disap-
pear i'm twelve hours. For a child

How a Louisiana Negro Made
Money Raising Four Cent
Cotton.

The Baton Rouge Item says:
Up to date the only man we have
heard of in Louisiana who has
made any money with cotton at
four cents per pound is a west
Louisiana negro. He. provided
himself with a strong rope and
and grab hook and selected con-
venient tree overhanging the Sou
thern Pacific Railroad track. On
dark nights in cotton shipping
time he posted himself in the tree
and invariably brought down a
bale of the staple from each pass
ing train. This thing had gone
for some time and the darky was
doing a thriving business, but by
some means the conductor drop
ped on to his scheme and laid for
him. The cotton cars were care
fully guarded thereafter and one
night he jerked a bale from near
the conductor and came near pull
ing that watchful individual off
with it. The conductor stopped
his train, captured the negro and
thus broke up the business of the
only man in the State who made
money off of four cent cotton.

Ia TO I.

Not a few readers of The Times
Democrat, seeing so frequently in
the course Of sbimetallic discus
sions the expression "at the ratio
of I6 to L." or of 81 to IT," have
inquired of us the exact meaning
of the expression "16 to |" or 81
to 16." ..-.,
The general idea with regard to
the expression "16 to T. is that
the value of gold is sixteen times
the value Of silver; and, although
that idea is not very far wide Of
the mark, yet it does not tell
everything that should be known.
Besides it is an explanation of the
expression that is not definite
enough to make it fully tangible
or easily Ineligible.
The amount of pure silver IN a
silver dollar is within a very
small fraction) sixteen times the
amount of pure gold in gold dol
lar; there being 371.25 grains of
pure silver in silver, and 1922
grains of gold in a gold, dollar.
Any one who is expert in that
very abstruse "rule" of srithme-
tic, known as "long division" will
find, if he make the actual expert
ment of dividing, that the 371,1 Is
grains of silver in the silver dol
lar are Is times, or, to be very &C.
curate, 1855 times, IS many as
the 1921 grains of gold in the
gold dollar.
Thus there is sixteen times the
weight of silver. in the, silver dol
lar that there is of gold in the
gold dollar; and it is on that &C.
count that we say that the value
Of gold u sixteen times the value
of silver, but it will be observed
that the ratio of 16 to l had origi.
nally and properly reference on.
ly to the weight of the two metals
in two coins of the same worth.
1t would scarcely be necessary
to add, even for those who like to
be saved the trouble of thinking
altogether, that the ZIG to l. and
the 81 to 16" are the same ex.
preston, and is merely varied &C
cording as the gold end or the sill.
ver end of 1.-THE ratio is considered
first. T. Times-Democrat.

Pueblo, Colo, Nov. 29.-Trancis Schla.
der, the healer, was at Greenhorn, thirty
miles southwest of Pueblo, on Tuesday

George Sears, a we'll known ranchman.
The following telegram was received
by the Chieftaiu from Mr.. Sears. II was
dated at Graneros, to which place Mr..
Sears had to drive ten miles, and was or
dered repeated back to the operator to
insure its reaching the Chieftain accurate
ly. The telegram said:
"Francis Schlader, the healer, took din
ner at my house Tuesday going southwark.
He came through Pueblo last Thursday
evening, and told me that he was not discov-
cred by anyone; that he rode through the
storm all night. On Friday morning he
camped in an abandoned cabin on the
Greenhorn and remained there until Mon
day morning. know this to be Francis
Schlader, the healer, having seen him in
Denver"
This telegram must put stop to all
the idle talk that the now celebrated man
has been seen at Kansas and Nebraska
points en- route on foot to Chicago.
Schlader rides white horse equipped
with new saddle and briale. He is
undoubtedly en- route south to New Mexico
and is avoiding the settlements. His
southwark route will take him near Wal
senburg and he will probably enter New
Mexico via Costilla, taking the old Santa
Fe trail through Red River and Taos and
striking the Rio Grande at Embudo.

JUDGE SMITHS POSITION
Not Seeking a Land Court Justice

Washington, Nov. 29-Hon. Thomas
Smith, chief Justice of New Mexico, is
visiting the city to-day, somewhat i'm
proved from his recent illness, and ex-
poets to return to Las Vegas in few
days. It has been stated in some of the
western papers that he has been working
for the appointment of chief justice OF
the United States land court. These rep
resentations are not only untrue, but he
most emphatically recognizes the eff
ciency Of that tribunal, as now consti-
tuted, and regards its preservation in
personnel as duty to the public, whose
interests they have so efficiently protect
cd.
Judge Smith declined soon after the

A STRONG TEAM.
Prince and Bryan Carry the Day for
Free Coinage in the TRANSMITS
sissippi Congress.

Omaha, Nov. 28.-The 9Th annual ses-
sion of the transit Mississippi congress
adjourned last night to meet next year
at Salt Lake. Among the many resolu-
tions discussed none excited more at
tention than one offered by Judge Prince,
of New Mexico, declaring for the free
coinage of silver. The goldites worked
strenuously to defeat it, but ex-Con-
gressman Bryan loyalty gave it support
and it was carried by vote of so for
gold to 127 for free coinage. Following
is the resolution:
"Whereas, An appreciating money
standard impairs all contracts, bank
rupts enterprises, makes idle money
profitable by increasing its purchasing
power and suspends the productive forces
of our people; and
"Whereas, Spoilation consequent upon
ontlawry OF silver in the interest of the
creditor class by constantly increasing
the value of gold is undermining all in
dustrial society; therefore,
s'Resolved, That we demand the i'm
mediate restoration of the free and un-
limited coinage of gold and silver at the
present ratio of 16 to 1, without waiting
for the aid or consent of any other nation,
such gold and silver coin to be alike full
legal tender for all debts, public and
private"
