cured her and she says it saved her life.
Mr.. Thos. Eggers, 139 Florida ST., San

approaching consumption, tried without
result, everything else theL bought one
bottle Of DIR. Kings New Discovery and
in two weeks was cured. He is naturally

Log of Rocky Ford Artesian Well.

In November, 1894, Prof. g. K. Gilbert,
one of the most eminent geologists con-
nected with the U. 8. Geological Survey,
visited Rocky Ford and at an interview
with q number Of our citizens gave his
views OF the prospects OF finding artesian
water here, and made diagram OF the
formations under our soil as clearly as he
could determine them.
A review Of Prof. Gilbert's ideas will
be interesting in connection with the
above report OF what has been found by
drilling.
Prof. Gilbert's map started with stra-
ia of 400 feet Of gray shale, within which,
at some point he did not attempt to de-
termine, he said Rocky Ford was situat-
ed. Then came the following forma-
tions:

The Enterprise was told few days
since that it was under the censure of a
few newly arrived citizens. Their griev-
ance was that they did not find work as
plentiful as the columns Of the Enter
prise had led them to believe. The CEN
sure is not deserved. We have never en-
couraged laboriDg men to come here in
hope OF finding work. We have spoken
Of this portion of the valley being in q
progressive and prosperous condition
which is emInently true, but we have
never said to workmen, lawyers, doctors,
merchants or other business men, that
there were openings here for them. We
have, and continue to encourage in
dustrious farmers, gardeners and fruit
growers to move hither and help develop
our rich lands. They can do this to the
mutual profit Of themselves and the val
ley. Such men are the basis Of the ma.
terial prosperity OF this section. As the
country develops, the supply of laboring,
business and professional men will keen
pace with the growth Of the country with.
out advertising for them. 1t may be
true that so good and newsy a paper as
the Enterprise may convey an exagger.
ated impression Of the size and business
activity Of Rocky Ford. We aim to give
a faithful account Of the doings of this
community. We are no more responsi.
BILE for the favorable impression which
this correct current history conveys than

senting an deliciously kissable appear.

The data for the above statement OF
probable formations was outcroppings of
various strata within 40 miles Of Rocky
Ford. Prof. Gilbert estimated that we
would have to go from 800 to 1900 feet
for water and that the supply when
found would be similar to that now
flowing from five different wells in Pue-

We clip the following from scien-
tific article on cyclones. 1t states our
idea of the trustworthiness of the wealth
er prophets who pretend. to foretell the
weather for month in advance:
at cannot be too plainly understood
that no student OF meteorology on a sci
entific basis will venture to pronounce as
to what the weather is likely to be three
months, or three weeks-seldom even
three days-in advance; that prognosti-
cations as to the coming seasons, even in
general way, such as hot, cold, or a
wet summer, are, without exception an
idle guess, of no value to any one, except
perhaps to the publishers of some wealth
erwise almanacs."
The weather prophet by study of the
weather of past seasons can easily ar
range meteorological bill of faro for
any month that will not be far wrong.
1t is safe to predict showers in April in
the Mississippi valley and wind in March
in almost all parts of the Union. And
this is such big country that some of
the widest weather guesses are apt to be
realized in some section. The weather
prophecies are mixture of guess work,
averages and probabilities.

TAX ON FRANCHISES.
Wisconsin Corporations Must Pay
for Municipal Rights.

MADISON, Wis, June 21.-The Wis
consin state supreme court has decided
a case of far-reaching Importance, as it
sustains and settles the rule of law in
this state as to the right of cities to
tax the franchises of street railway
companies, over and above the amount
at which their tangible property is as
sessed. While the case decides the
question only as to street railway COM
panies, the same rule of law would
doubtless apply to water, gas and cleo
trio light companies as well.
The case originated in Milwaukee
where the Milwaukee Street Railway
company objected to the assessment
of it's franchises and those of the Badg-
er Illuminating company and of the
Edison Electric company both of which
are owned by the street railway COM
pany. The objection to the tax was
first made before the board of review
which refused to exempt these fran
chises from taxation, but equalized the
taxes so that the amount assessed on
them amounted to just about $2500000.
The company took the matter to the
circuit court for Dodge county, which
held that these franchises were not as
sessable. The appeal was taken from
this judgment and brought into ques-
ton directly the power of the city to
assess such franchises.

RAINY LAKE CITY, Mimi, June
21.-This town has had an expert
ence which might have ended like
the Northfield raid in 1876 had there
been more firearms about. Two
masked men came to town yesterday
afternoon and went directly to the
Bank of Rainy Lake City. There
were but few people in the streets
at the time, and the robbers entry
to the bank was not noticed. Once
inside one of the desperadoes
marched up to Cashier Butler and,
fiOurishing glistening six-shooter,
demanded that he give up the con-
tents of the banks vaults. Butler
was inclined to demur, but while he
was talking the other rascal ran
around behind him and felled him
with a blow from the fist. While he
lay unconscious and bleeding from
the nose upon the floor of the bank,
the robbers helped themselves to
$4,000, all the money they could find
in the place, ran outside, mounted
their horses and escaped into the
heavy timber. There is no clew
whatever to their identity.

Rumor That He Is on the Sick List
at Gray Gables.

at Gray Gables.
WASHINGTON, June 21.-The rumor
is again revived in Washington that
President Cleveland's health is not
only causing considerable anxiety to
himself, but to his intimate associates
as well. 1t is probably due to the fact
that when the president left Washing
ton he was accompanied as far as
Jersey City by DR.. O'Reilly, an army
surgeon, and that there he was met
by DR.. Bryant, his regular family
physician, who accompanied him to
Gray Gables. 1t has been noticed for
many months that President Cleveland
has never left Washington for any
length of time unless he had with him
on his trip either DR.. O'Reilly or Dr.
Bryant While it may be stated that
his appearance indicates that his con-
dition is not dangerous, it is, however,
whispered in certain circles that he is
subject to sudden and severe attacks
of rheumatism in the chest, and the
statement is further made today that
DR.. O'Reilly recently saved his life with
great difficulty during one of the
spasms. 1t is also stated that CIeve-
land is very apprehensive of his con-
dition and prefers to have good ply
sician near him. 1t is stated that the
president, if it is possible for him to
remain, will not return to Washington
from Gray Gables until Oct. 1. 1t is
said that he will devote the summer to
fishing and improving his estate at
Gray Gables. The most important
statement in this connection, however,
is that DIR. Bryant will be his guest
while at his summer home.

FARGO, N. D., June 21.-Assistant
United States attorney Miller spoke
day and a half in summing up for the
prosecution in the E. Ashley Mears
trial, followed by Standish, who con-
cluded this morning for the defense.
Tracy Bangs closed for the govern

of the defense show conspiracy to en-
ter government land fraudulently and
also show exceedingly questionable
transactions by w. B. Mears and Allen.
Aliens testimony is regarded as utterly
worthless in connecting E. A. Mears
with the frauds and conviction is not
probable.
