Quality
In Watches.

To carry poor timekeeper is only
a little better than to carry none at
all-if indeed it is not a little worse.
Our watches are the cashiers of times
treasury. If they cheat US in paying
out the valuable minutes, lie to us con-
corning our hour-saviDgs, deceive us
in our multitudious comings and
goings, they are absolutely bad, what
ever tEeir price, for price isn't always
"a certificate of character in watches,
OUR WATCHES are achieving
popularity mainly becaus of their re-
markable performance as timekeepers.

Seems as if all the things we like dis
agree with us, and all the things we
don't like. agree with us. Dyspepsia
turks in most of the good things we
eat, and indigestion follows the graft
fication of appetite. Of course. itisn't
Natures fault. Nature does the best
she can, and if man will only help
her a little bit at the right time, he
may eat what he likes and as much as
he likes. DR.. Pierce Pleasant Pellets
are for people who ara troubled with
indigestion. Particularly for those in
whom it manfests itself in the form
of constipation. The Pellets are
quick and easy in their action They
are in perfect harmony with Ma
ture. They effect a permanent cure.
You need take them regularly only a
little while. After that, use them oc.
casionally when you need theln-when
you have eaten anything that dis
agrees with you. They may be taken
just as freely as you would take water
or any other necessity of life. Once
used they are always in favor.

MIssIssIppI's MEGAPHoNIc CAVERN.
According to statement of gentle
man from Mico, Jasper county, Miss,
can boast of cave that may some day
equal the world-renowned Mammoth
Cave of Kentucky. The opening to
the cave is situated on the farm OF
Squire McLaurin, about twelve miles
from Mico. 1t has been explored for
about quarter OF mile, and gradually
increases in magnitude. The opening
is about four feet square, followed out
of solid limestone rock. Several ex-
tloring parties have entered the cave
and penetrated TO the distance above
named, when, afraid of the strange
sounds heard in the cave, they would
turn back. The faintest whisper can
be heard with startling distinctness,
and when spoken loudly can be heard
for several seconds echoed and re.
echoed. Not long since q party OF
three entered the cave, taking llgh'.
wood torches with them. They had
penetrated short distance when some
hats flew into the face of the torch
bearer. From fright he threw the
torch down, which was extinguished.
Then a scramble for the opening re.
suited in several bumred heads and
muddy suits. Beautiful stalactites
gang from the roof of the cave, and
when viewed by torchlight look like
millions of diamonds. There is anoth-
r opening about four miles from the
me named, and its supposed to be
part of the same cave. A public road
passes between the two caves, and at
pne point rumbling sound can be
heard, which goes to show that sub
terranean cavern exists beneath the
road.

.FLAGSTAFF'S WAR SCARE,
Startling Rumors of a Navajo
Uprising Prove to Have Been
Exaggerated.
The Posse Sent to Rescue Settlers
Fails to Find Evidence of Sc.
riouS Trouble.

ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ. Jan. THE
startling rumor last night of an uprising
of the Navajo Indians proves to have been
exaggerated. A cowboy had ridden into
Flagstaff at breakneck speed and an
nounced that band of twenty-five rene
gade Navaios had number of white
settlers surrounded at place about forty
miles distant and that relief must be sent
Immediately. The Sheriff of the county,
with strc ng posse, left for the scene of
the trouble at once, but messenger who
came in from the party to-day reports
that the difficulty was but a slight one.
While there is some trouble between few
of the Indians and the white settlers in
the immediate vicinity of the reservation
in regard to the right of the Indians to
Craze their sheep on the public lands, there
is no general uprising of the Navajos or a
threat of one.
The Navajos number about %, 900, and if
they should 90 to war with the whites
they would cause serious trouble, for they
are all well armed. Rowing bands occa-
slonally commit depredations upon iso-
lated settlers, as in this case, but the
Indians have too much property at stake
TO 60 upon tue warpath as a tribe.
1t has been learned that small band of
NaVaIos captured three cowboys who dis
puted the grazing right of the Indians.
They were probably released before the
Flagstaff posse arrived
