No Indians AIlowad.

The Burns Herald says: mo
Indians will be allowed in Harvey
county on hunting expeditions the
coming summer and fall. The
citizens of the county want this
distinctly understood and general
ly known. This warning is in
tended for all Indians; it matters
not from what reservation they
come, none are excepted. The
killing, manning and driving deer
out of our mountains has been toler.
ated as long as our citizens will
put up with it, ard we want all
Indian agents and the Indians to
understand that it will no longer
be allowed"

Are Hunting Spear Heads,

q Railroad men report that most of
the able bodied population of Una
tilla these days is engaged in the
search of Indian arrow heads, such
as adorned the primeval imple-
ments of warfare and were tipped
with flint and with feathers" The
recent sand-blizzard which swept
along the shores of the Columbia
has uncovered many ofthese arrow
heads, and they are supposed to be
especially numerous on the site of
the old Indian battle field near
Umatilla. In fact, this is about the
only place where the relic hunter
considers it profitable to turn his
attention.

John Bailke, of the Oregon Mort
gage Company, informs reporter
that there is general feeling of
hopefulness among the farmers Of
the northwest, In the Washington
counties north from here one-half
the wheat growers were compelled
to sell their 1895 crop at less than
40 cents per bushel, and for that
reason, are rot in SO good condition
as are those Of this section where
the greater part Of the 1895 crop
went at 40 certs or more.

for Boise Sunday. From Colfax he
telephoned Sheriff Campbell he had
heard rumors that a mob was or
ganizing to take the murderers
Smith and Gordon out and hang
them, and that, if the sheriff needed
aid, he would furnish him regi-

holding the sheriff responsible for
the same. Sheriff Campbell i'm

Wheat Fed Hogs.

Drover's Journal: Wheat fed
hogs from Washington, Oregon and
Idaho have sold very satisfactorily
on the Chicago market. The
freight rates are necessarily high.
but the prices are fairly good and
the killing quality of the hogs
makes them very desirable, especi-
ally for the foreign meat trade.
The best American and English
demand call for pork we'll streaked
with lean, and these wheat and
barley fed hogs fill the requirement
admirably. It is reported that
Washington and Oregon have a
good crop of hogs, with farmers
quite disposed to develop the
business

Modem Damon and PYthias.

President Fuller of Drury college,
Springfield, Mo-, has received an
offer of large sum Of money from
a Massachusetts, man if his college
will verify the truth Of a war incl
dent which rivals the story Of
Damon and Pythias. The story is
that in the early part of the war,
confederate troops in Missouri took
400 union prisoners,twelve ofwhom
we're lined up and shot. The COM
mander Of a federal regiment re-
taliated by ordering twelve con-
federates tobe shot. As the line
was being formed young man
named VIM. Lear, stepped for
ward and asked permission to take
the place of one Of the condemned
men who was his friend. The
request was granted and Lear was
shot in place of his friend.

Instantaneous Lemonade.

Get two dozen lemons and roll
each one separately on a smooth,
hard surface until it is quite soft;
then cut off the end and with
doll knife scrape out all the juice
and pulp. Strain this carefully
through q thin cloth; then make
the juice almost thick with sugar,
bottle in glass, using a cork stop
per, and stand in cool place. 1t
will keep long time, and to make
a glass of fresh lemonade you have
only to put in tumbler OF cold
water enough of the sugared acid
to suit your taste. You might do
this when lemons are cheap, and
then when lemons are scarce and
high in price you will not be de-
prived OF your favorite beverage
because it costs too much to in
dulge.

THE FAMOUS X RAY
Applied to a Dead Burglar
and a Chinaman.
DEEP INTEREST AROUSED
DIR. Montborne Develops the
Ray in Spokane.

Spokane, March 16.-Dr. ii. +.
Montborne, a Partisan physician
now practicing in this city, con.
Quoted all of Saturday night a
series of intensely interesting ex-
periments with the famous X raw.
These we're the first experiments of
this nature conducted in this city,
and it is believed they were the
FIRST to be undertaken in this state.
The experiments were conducted
at the morgue, and subjects were
Robinson, the dead burglar, and
the Chinaman murdered Saturday
evening in a China house "While
these experiments were not entirely
satisfactory" said DR.. Montborne
to a Spokesman-Review reporter,
"they proved the principle, and 1
succeeded in developing the genu-
inc X ray, in which the scientific
world is now taking so deep an in
terest."
The hrst effort was TO photograph
tho bullet in the dead burglars
head. The Photographic plate was
placed upon o table, the burglars
head then laid upon the plate, and
the Crookes tube was placed about
two inches above the other side of
the head. A primary current was
then generated from a storage bat
terry, and by induction the second
ary current carried to the tube.
The effect was weird and startling.
A shower of violet rays fell from
the negative pole at the top Of the
tube, and the bottom Of the bulb
was brightly suffused with a pale
green glow. The midnight hour,
the buzzing sound of the vibrator,
the flashing Of the electric spark,
the strange glow in the bulb, and
the grewsome surroundings Of the
morgue combined to make scene
that was weird and lugubrious.
The exposure was continued for
an hour and a half, but the result
was unsatisfactory. DR.. Mont
borne said he was not surprised at
this, because the object to be photo
graphed, the bullet, was not re-
ceivina the ray directly.
The ray was next applied to the
hand of the dead Chinaman, and
the exposure continued for two
hours and 20 minutes, with slight
interruption. The plate was de-
veloped yesterday, and showed the
outline of the bone. DR.. Mont
borne thinks the result would have
been more satisfactory had it not
been for the brief interruption.
He will continue these interesting
experiments, and is confident of
ultimate success.
A number of Spokane gentlemen
have taken a deep interest in this
work. w. H. Stowell procured the
Crooke's tube. 1t is about IA
inches long and peai-shaped. In.
side the small end is a platinum
wire to which is attached disk of
the same metal. This is the
cathode, or negative pole. Three
inches from the bottom, and at
right angles with the negative pole,
is another platinum wire, entering
the tube from the side. This is the
anode, or positive pole. The in.
terror of the tube is a vacuum.
The coil was borrowed from
Professor Walker Of the high
school, Professor John Mackenzie
also lent valuable assistance. L.
Phelps, a local photographer, con.
tributed the slides and developed
the plates.

Paw Dirt in New York.


The recent sale of two inches of
real estate in New York at 800 an
inch led a land expert to do some
odd figuring. "Did you ever stop
to think what the value of a piece
Of land about the size of your hat
located on Broadway or in the
business sections Of Fifth avenue
would be?" he asked. "Of course,
the value would depend somewhat
on the condition of your head, for
an inch difference inside would
mean o good deal. The man who
wears a seven inch hat and owns a
frontage on Broadway of the same
dimensions can realize money
enough from the sale of it to give
him a moderate start in business.
An inch of land facing on Broad
way in the business section Of that
great thoroughfare is worth today,
say competent real estate men,
between $400 and $500, so the
fellow who owned strip wide as
his bat could deposit upward of
$4,000 in the bank if lie sold out for
cash. The most valuable land in
the city is located on Fifth avenue,
between Twenty-third and Forty
second street. Here land on the
west side Of the avenue is worth
800 an inch, while that on the
east side finds an easy sale at 1915
to $3.50 per inch" All the pay
dirt is not located in the gold min
ing camps.

LIVER REGULATOR, the "KINa OF
LIVER MEDICINEs2" Everybody needs
take liver remedy. 1t is q sluggish or
diseased liver that impairs digestion
and causes constipation, when the waste
that should be carried off remains in
the body and poisons the whole system.
That dull, heavy feeling is due to a
torpid liver. Bihousness, Headache,
Malaria and Indigestion are all liver
diseases. Keep the liver active by an
occasional dose of Simmons Liver Reg
ulator and you'll get rid of these trou-
bles, and give tone to the whole sys-
tenn. For laxative Simmons Liver
Regulator is BETTER THAN PILLS. It
does not grippe, nor weaken, but greatly
refreshes and strengthens.
