the gasping and half-dead child, rode
over steep mountains and through for
ests, unbroken save for faint trails.
During the day travels she was tied
to her pony, her head hanging down
one side, her feet the other. Five days
passed in this way. At the end of that
time the two fiends became aware they
were being pursued, and strapping the
girl lengthwise on the pony, drove the
pony from them. For several miles
they followed the animal bearing the
child, urging it at full speed. They
they abandoned both and sought safety
from the avengers they believed near
at hand.
For two days the pony with its help
less burden wandered through forest
and over mountain. Little Mary had
previously refused the food her cap
tors had offered her, so from sheer
weakness she was in half-comatose
condition during her Mazeppa-llke ex-
perience.
The second day after the chllds
abandonment by the two ruffians an In
dian woman discovered the pony and

Asr fearful position, the woman carried
her to her wigwam two miles distant,
and after long effort succeeded in re-
storing her to consciousness. At this
wigwam, two days later, several men,
bers of the party that had started in
pursuit of her captors found her. They
took her to the home of her grand
father, the San Poll chief, where,
despite starvation and the fearful tor
lures she had endured. health and
strength slowly returned.
Mary's father is dead and, with her
mother, she made her grandfather

turn home the day of her disappear

known to have gone. William Nolan,
an indian interpreter and ex-Unlted
States marshal, organized a posse and
started on the trail. Dividing into sew
eral groups, one Of which discovered
Mary, the members Of the posse secured
the country thoroughly. William No
Ian and his brother unexpectedly en-
countered the fugltives and, before they
realized the fact, were gazing into the
muzzles Of the two Winchester rifles.
They were forced to turn back by the
desperadoes, who assured them they
would never be captured alive.
Several days later, however, the fugi-
tlyes were located at the mouth of Spo-
kane river at the hut of Chief Kalus-
klu, and large posse Of Indians and
officers surrounded them. In spite Of
their bold defiance Of few days before,
the rufflans surrendered without re-
slstance. After the capture there was
well nigh a battle between the officers
and Indians to prevent the latter shoot

lodged in the Jail at WILDER.

The New York board Of health recon.
mends that notices be placed in all
public places, in surface and ele-
waited cars, public halls and assem-
bly, rooms, warning everybody against
eXpectoration on the floors. The
doctors say that consumption, dlph-
iberia, influenza, and other diseases
are easily communicated in this way
during certain stages of the disease.
Catarrhal affections may be COM
municated through dried spittle mix
ing with dust. These germs are
likely to be gathered on the feet and
on the skirts of women and taken into
private houses, where the most perfect
ventilation will not stay their evil
effects.

SGIATIC RHEUMATISM AND ITS,
CURE,

From the Gazette, Burlington, iowa.
The story Of Mr. Tabors nearly fatal
attack OF sciatlc rheumatism is familiar
to his large circle Of acquaintance, but
for the benefit OF others and those sim
llarly afflicted The Gazette has inVesti-
gated the matter for publication. Mr..
Tabor Is Secretary and Treasurer for
the Commercial Printing Company,
with offices In the Hedge Block, and re-
sides at AIT BasSet Street, Burlington,
Iowa. A Gazette man sought an inter
view with Mr.. Tabor at his place OF
business today, and although he was
busily engaged with imperative duties,
he talked freely and feelingly on the
subject of his recent severe sickness and
subsequent wonderful cure.
Yes" said Mr.. Tabor, II can safely.

old trouble with rheumatism has en-
tirely disappeared, but am still taking
Pink Pills and will keep on taking them
as long as l continue to grow stronger
and healthier, as / have been every day
since began to use them. You will not
wonder at my profound faith in the
merits of Pink Pills after you have
heard what l have to tell you. About
Nne year ago l was stricken suddenly
with sclatic rheumatism and was con-
fined to my bed. 1t grew worse and
rapidly assumed the form of infiamma-
tory rheumatism. 1 suffered constant
and acute pains and all the fortunes
which that horrible disease is capable OF
lnhlcting. At length under the constant
care OF a local physician was enabled
to return to my work, but only at inter-
walls, Severe attacks would appear reg
ularly in my back and descend into my
leg and foot, and threatened to make me
permanent cripple. 1 tried various
remedies for rheumatism, but without
any beneficial results l grew pale. weak
and haggard, and my family grew
alarmed at my condition.
About eight weeks ago my mother
induced me to try DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People, and you know the
result. Before had used one box felt
greatly relieved and much stronger.
continued their use and improved rapid
ly. l have now taken eight boxes and
feel like new man and completely
cured.
In reply to inquiries Mr.. Henry, the
druggist, stated that DR.. Williams Pink
Pills were having large sale, that it
was particularly gratifying to him to
know that the customers themselves
were highly pleased with the benefits
they had derived from their use; that
many of them stated that the pills were
the only medium that had done them
any good; that they not only gave
them quick relief but permanent bene-
fit. That the pills do sell and that the
pills do cure is q certainty
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain, in q
condensed form, all the elements nee
essary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
Pink Pills are sold in boxes only at so
cents box or six boxes for $3.50, and

now as it was in the old days gone
by. Here to-day, as Of yore, the prod
igal, anxious to see the world and en-
joy himself, goes to his old father who
has loved him for many, many years,
and asks him that he be given his por-
tion that he has been saving for many,
many years. And the old father, who
has loved him for many, many years,
gives him his portion, and he goes away
and spends. it in riotous living He has
a 'Delmonico's at Six time of it, my
brethren, and that prodigal was glad
enough to eat with the swine he herd
ed. Then the prodigal repents, as
many of us are apt to do on an empty
stomach, and he went back to the old
home, where he had lived for many,
many years. And he saw the blue
smoke curling out of the chimney, as
1t had done for many, many years, and
his old father, who had loved him for
many, many years. And he fell upon
his fathers shoulder and wept to be
taken back to his heart. Then the
father loved him again, as he had done
for many, many years, and went out
and killed the fatted calf that had been
on the old farm for many, many years"
Here the judge was so convulsed at
the probable toughness and antiquity
of that calf that had been on the farm
for many many years, that he argued
judiciously with himself whether, after
all, the old mans forgiveness and meth
cd of showing it were as devoid of
humor as we have always thought it.
