All elbows MISTAKE.
Took the Trolley for the Steam Rail-
way Train.

All Chow, a Chinaman with limited
knowledge Of this country, it's ways
and its language, started from Berkeley,
Cal, to ride the few miles into San
Francisco, recently He had been in
structed where to take the train; but
he made a mistake, and instead of
boarding the regular steam railroad
train he took an electric car that
passed the same corner. 1t happened
to be a car of the loop line that runs
between Berkeley and Oakland, going
one route and returning another. He
made the complete circuit once, but
made no effort to get off the car. The
conductor thought the scenery charmed
the celestial, so said nothing, but col
lected his fare third time as the car
went on it's second trip to Oakland.
Eight times All Chow made the circuit
of the line, paying his nickel with
cheerfumess every time the conductor
asked for fare. Then at the end of
the eighth trip the conductor called a
policeman and All Chow was taken
before a police judge for examination
as to his sanity The interpreter in
Che court soon discovered the reason
Of All Chow's peculiar doings, and with
the courts permission accompanied
him to San Francisco.

There Are Enough of Them to Form
~ Good Sized Town.
Paris is the city where the dressmaking
trade hourishes as it does in no other spot
in the world. In 1850 the number of cou-
turieres. as given in the Annuaire du
Commerce. the commercial directory of
those days, was only 158. There were be-
sides CT shops for the sale of readymade
feminine apparel but there were none, as
there are today, which sold lingerie or
certain articles exclusively.
In the Bottin (as the Paris directory Is
Familiarity known of 1895 there are 1886
couturieres and 296 commercial houses for
the sale of ready-made garments, besides
many establishments which manufacture
and sell upon de desous or rnder-petti-
coats alone. The number OF working
dressmakers in Paris is estimated at Co.,
C0e.
In all France, according to NJ. George
Michel, the industry of manufacturing the
various articles of womens dress is in the
hands of S1,400 male and 143,64S female
owners of shops or factories. These fur
nish employment to 700,S01 persons, of
whom over 100000 are women.
In addition to these there are 925, S55 per-
sons who make their living from indus
tries which are tributary to that of the
manufacture of feminine apparel The to-
tai value of the product of this labor is
estimated a. f50000,000.

TREATING TIE WRONG DISEASE.

Many times women call on their fam
lily physicians, suffering, as they i'm
agine, one from dyspepsia, another
from heart disease, another from liver
or kidney disease, another from ner-
vous exhaustion or prostration, another
with pain here and there, and in this
way they all present alike to them
selves and their easy-going and indif-
ferent, or ever busy doctor, separate
and distinct cases, for which he pre-
scribes his pills and potions, assuming
them to be such. when, in reality, they
are all only symptoms caused by some
womb disease The physician, ignorant
of the cause of suffering encourages
his practice until large bills are made
The suffering patient gets no better,
but probably worse, by reason of the
delay, wrong treatment and consequent
complications. A proper medicine, like
DR.. Pierce's Favirite Prescription, di-
rected to the cause would have entirely
removed the disease, thereby dispell-
ing all those distressing symptoms and
instituting comfort instead of prolonged
misery.

Salt Lake and Pacific Goes Ahead
Tomorrow.
With yesterdays transactions the pre-
liminaries incident to the beginning of
the construction of the Salt Lake &
Pacific railroad to Deep Creek were
completed, and it only awaits the COM

the first of the projected railroads to
begin building is actually under way.
The officers Of the Utah & Pacific
Improvement company met yesterday
and opened bids for sub-contracts, as
was stated in yesterdays Herald would
be done The successful bidders were
j. C. Watson e. Bros, the Salt Lake
contractors, who were awarded the
contract for grading the first seven
miles from Saltair to Lake Point.

ton to mark the turning of the first

ferring to wait. before any celebration
is had till the driving of the first spike,
or. better still, as Secretary A. H.
Cannon put it, till the last one is
hammered into place.
The work will, therefore, begin very
unostentatiously. Six teams will be
put to work tomorrow and the force
will be trebled the following day, the
work to be carried steadily on till Lake
Point is reached.
TIES ALSO CONTRACTED FOR.
The Improvement also let the con-
tract yesterday for the first supply Of

Eli Openshaw of Santaquin, Utah
county, and was for 10000 ties, which

Of Judge Shuteldt. The following is

The Madisonian. (Virginia City, Mont.) 1873-1915, 1896-09-19

In Judge Shufeldt's opinion a silver
man is a distraught individual, whose
actions will bear watching and whose
proper place is in Warm Springs.
Don't let him inveigle you into becom-
ing a part of an organization directly
against the interests of Montana. He
is all right on protection but all wrong
on silver. and we trust that the McKin-
ley bimetallists Of Madison county
will be chary of joining a gold bug
organization.
Nothing personal is herewith in
tended. And we will say this for Mr..
Shufeldt: He is sincere in his convic-
tions.
The Madisonian. (Virginia City, Mont.) 1873-1915, 1896-09-19

Powderly, the labor leader, who for
years has been an acknowledged silver
man. has at last been induced to see the
error Of his way, besides. possibly,
other things more substantial, and has
gone over to the gold bugs. His con-
version is suspiciously sudden, too much
50 to do the cause he is advocating any
good, and We are inclined 10 think and
hope, will bring his checkered career
as an influential labor leader TO a bril-
Liant and abrupt finish. But, after the
campaign is over, if this modern Judas
OF organized labor will emulate the eX-
cellent example of the Biblical man
who sold his Saviour. and make amends
to the fellow workingmen whom he
now seeks to betray by hanging him
self, those who have believed in him
in Montana in the past. will forgive
him. In the opinion of the MAps.
SoNIAN this is the only decent logical
course left open for Powderly.

George Lyon, the we'll known stock
mar of the upper Madison valley, was
brought to Virginia Wednesday suffer-
ing from a bad fracture of his right
leg, the result OF an an accident which
occurred Monday evening. He was
riding, and in attempting to cross a
ditch his horse fell, the accident
resulting. Mr.. Lyon was taken
to j. +. Hayden's. near Ennis. the next
day. q distance of 80 miles, where DR..
| Raglan, who in the meantime had been
summoned, met him. Wednesday he
was brought to this city. and is doing
as we'll as could be expected, under the
circumstances. Mr.. Lyon has many
friends all over Madison county. who
| will await his recovery with anxiety.
The MADIsoN1AN job department
! printed the issue Of bonds necessary
for the construction Of the city hall. 1t
is an elaborate job in colors. IS $500
1920 bonds. with 10 coupons attached
to each. 1t might be worthy to record
at this time. that the city officials. af-
ter securing prices from eastern print
ing concerns, and finding that our
prices compared favorably with out
side houses, gave the work to the
MADIsONIAN. Mayor Bennett and
City Attorney Will Clark are at work
this week signing the issue, which by
the way. is not a Lilliputian task.
Each coupon, beside the bond proper,
requires the signature of the mayor
and city clerk. AS there are 40 cou-
pons to each bond, and 10 bonds in all,
each official will have to write his sig
nature 773 times.
The Trilby Park Company has re-
turned from a tour Of the National

| Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Buford, Misses

Knight, Ira French, Frank Hall, with
Lew Rooney as conductor and Prof.
Berg as chef de cuisine. The trip was
a very enjoyable one, married only by
one incident, when a bear stampeded

related a thrilling bear story and as

ed. out of the brush came Mr.. Bruin.
Ira French, with remarkable presence
of mind. remembering the saying of
old hunters that grizzleys have no use
for dead men, feigned death in the
hope of escaping the real article.
Julian Knight, who had noticed a
sappling about 200 yards away, ran for
it with the intention Of pulling it up
by the roots for the purpose Of brain
ing the bear. Harry Gohn jumped
through the fire and started off at
breakneck speed to notify the soldiery,
in camp about five miles distant. About
this time the bear revealed its identi-
ty-"it'' was Lou Romey in a bear skin
o~vercoat. The explanation was made
and the various members of the party
came down from the points of vantage.
