THEY DREAD A REPETITION.

This man said that when he was shocked
it seemed to him as though some one had
struck him in the head with bar of iron
and he knew no more until he regained
consciousness at the hospital, where he
was amazed to find the doctors standing
over him. Both these men have declared
that not for a million dollars would they
be willing to repeat their experience, even
if they had guarantee that they would
come out of the ordeal as fortunately as
they did before.
The rules which are generally posted in
all places where electricity is handled as
commercial agent are S follows.
"In cases of apparent death. from an
electric shock no time should be lost to
induce artificial respiration. Tho body
must be placed upon the back. A roll
made of coat, or anything else conven-
lent (rolled, not folded), is placed under
the shoulders, and must be sufficiently
large to so prop up the spine as to drop
the head backward. The operator should
kneel bohind the head of the subject.
facing him, grasp the elbows and draw
them almost together above it, and hold
them there for two or three seconds.
TO INDUCE RESPIRATION.
s,sThe operator should then carry the
elbows down to the sides and front of the
chest, firmly COMPRISING it by throwing
his weight upon the elbows.
CATER two or three seconds the arms
should be again carried above the head,
and the same Vancouver should be re-
peated at the rate of fifteen or sixteen
times a minute. This manipulation
stimulates respiration in the following
manner: When the arms are extended
over the head the chest walls are expand
ed, just as in inspiration, and if the
throat is clear the air will rush into the
lungs When the arms are brought down
to the sides of the chest, COMPRISING it,
the air is expelled just as in expiration.
"The operator must appreciate the fact
that the manipulation must be executed
with methodical deliberation, just as de-
cribed, and never hurriedly nor half
heartedly. To grasp the arms land move
them rapidly up and down like pump
handle is both absurd and absolutely USE
less.
Gin addition to this the tongue must be
drawn out to free the throat. An assis-
tant should take the tongue, held by a
cloth or handkerchief to prevent slipping,
and draw it forcibly out during the act
of inspiration, or when the arms are ex-
topded ahove the head and when the
chest is compressed it may be allowed to
recede.
'sThis rnythmical traction upon the
tongue is in itself an excellent stimulant
of respiration 1t act not only by freeing
the throat of the tongue, which may fall
back and obstruct breathing, but also by
reflex irritation, through the fraenum or
bride under the tongue being drawn
forcibly against the lower teeth.

MY SWEETHEART.

She is neither short nor tall,
Rather what l think you'd call
Jyst the size.
And her hands and feet are-well, j.
I'd say ditto aud not tell
Any lies.
Though her eyes are soft and blue.
They have not the brilliant hue
Of the sky.
Yet wheniin their depths I look
Like a'EictuTe in a book
There am I.
Not SO very small her nose is.
Neither are her cheeks like roses,
Red and: white
And my muse does not embolden
Me to call hersBrowx hair golden,
Though might.
Just village maiden she.
Many ladies' that you see
Rank above her.
Men have seldom called her pretty
I have never thought her witty,
But love her.

their fairy books long before they wish tic
give them up because some one says,
''You are too old for such things" That

The justices against the law were
Chief Justice Fuller, Justices Gray,
Field, Brewer, and Shields; for the
law, Justices Harlan, White, Brown
and Jackson. The conclusions of
the court were as follows:
l. We adhere to the opinion al

estate, being indisputably direct
taxes, taxes on rents or the income
from real estate are equally direct
taxes.
2. We are equally of the opinion
that taxes oa personal property or
the income from personal property
are likewise direct taxes.
3. The tax imposed by section 81
to 81, inclusive, of the act of 1894,
so far as it falls on incomes from
real estate aud personal property,
being a direct tax within the mean
ing of the constitution, are there

A Choteau correspondent of the
Helena Independent has this to say
of z. T. Burton and his colony.
At Burtonvile, which is located
six niles east of Choteau, all is life
and activity, and it requires but a
glance from the passing stage
coach to convince the traveller that
the cotonists selected by Messrs
Burton and Allen and placed on
the lands under their splendid sys-
tenn of bitches, whose waters are
taken from the Teton IA miles away
was most certainly good one.
They came to labor and to wait.
and brought with them horses,
cows, hogs and all necessary farm
ing implements, and consequently
the first year have but little to buy.
Good, substantial farm houses have
been constructed on various Sec
tions of this vast domain. A large
number of teams are at work; the
men do the plowing while their
wives, sons and daughters SOW
the seed, from which, beyond a
doubt, they will reap a just reward.
The bitches are running full heads
of water, and the principle crops
under cultivation this summer are
oats, hay, barley and vegetables.
Collins, On the Great Falls and
Canada railroad, IA miles distant,
is their shipping point, and as
Messrs. Burgy ana Hildebrand, of
Great Falls, are running a first
class daily stage line between Cho.
teau and Collins, they are blessed
with first class mail and express
facilities.
Mr.. Burton is now in the east,
but is expected to return soon with

OF Interest to Settlers.

The following, ,reported.by S. W
Langhorne, land and mining attor-
ney, of Helena, Mont, is of inter
est to settlers.
The act of March 2. 1889, among
other things allow in general terms,
any settler, who by reason of fail
ure of crops, total or partial, sick,
ness or other unavoidable casualty y
las been unable to secure supper
for himself and family. a leave 81
absence for one year. The year o
absence counting the same as resi-
dence on the land. In many cases
homesteads have been abandoned
for these reasons. Now by act o
Congress, where any such settler
has heretofore forfeited his or hel
entry for any of the reasons above
men toned, he or she will be per-
mitted to make another entry o
not exceeding one quarter section
of land, subject to homestead entry
and to perfect title to the same un

respect as if he or she had no
made such entry.

AN Asheville, N. G. dispatch of
the 10th says Ex-Solicitor Eugene
D. Carter, one of the most promi>

has published letter withdrawing
from the democratic party and an
nouncing his affiliation with the re-
publican party. The letter caused
sensation IN Ashville. Carter
assigns as his reason for changing
his political faith the lack of suffi
cient craftsmanship in the demo-
cratic party to manage the affairs
of the country. He says the party
is divided into warrlng factions,
one demanding a gold standard and
the other silver monometal SIN,
either of which, he claims, would
ruin the people. He believes "the
republican party has the ability
and patriotism to establish true bi
metalism." He says he knows the
democrats have not.
