FORT CASPER RESTORED.
Pictures to Also be Made of Fort Fet-
terman by Mr.. Houghton.

NJ. ID. Houghton of Laramie. who has
been engaged illustrating the history
Of Wyoming, returned from Casper yes,
terday morning, where he has been
making a picture of old Fort Casper and
immigrant bridge across the Platte at
that point. The old post and bridge
long ago disappeared. but Mr.. Hough-
ton succeeded in finding the piers Of
the bridge and foundations of the build
ings Of the fort, and having with him
four old-timers, who lived at Fort Cas-
per in its palmy days, he succeeded in
getting a complete description Of all the
buildings OF the fort and of the bridge,
which he has reproduced in a sketch
with the Platte river in the foreground
and Casper mountain in the distance.
The drawing will be shown to II. B.
Kelly and Joseph Knight Of this city

Friend. who was a telegrapher at the
fort in 1866.
In a few days Mr.. Houghton will yis>
it old Fort Fetterman with the purpose
of making a picture of that historic
spot. He completed some time ago a
striking picture of Fort Laramie in its
most active days.-Sun-Leader.

DISAPPOINTMENT.

Washington. Dec. with the ex-
ception Of the offer of 5 2 SOC, 900 receiv,
ed some time ago from the Union Pa
cific reorganization committee for the
governments interest in the Kansas
Pacific. which was promptly declined.
the government has received no init
nation as to the purpose of the COM
mittee with respect to the sale set for
December 16. The government is now
in a position to bid at the sale, and but
for the resolution adopted by the senate
today. asking the president to apply to
the court for a postponement, there is
no doubt that 1t would have done SO.
should the committee have failed to
make an acceptable offer. The SEN
ate resolution, however, changes the
situation. Attorney General McKenna
will soon begin the preparation of the
necessary papers in the case and will
at once ask the court to set a date for
the hearing in the argument, In support
Of a motion for postponement. The at
torney has no doubt that the motion
will be granted upon the showing he
will be able to make.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE
RAPID INCREASE OF HEART
TROUBLES.
Do Not Be Alarmed But Look for
Cause.

Heart troubles, at least among Ameri-
cans, are certainly increasing and
while this may be largely due to
the excitement and worry Of American
business life. it is more often the result
Of weak stomach. of poor digestion.
Real organic heart disease is incur
able; but not one case Of a hundred Of
heart trouble, is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion is because
both organs are controlled by branches
of the same great nerves, the Sympa-
thetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart is af-
fected by that form of poor digestion,
which causes gas and fermentation
from half digested food: there is a feel
ing of opposition and heaviness in the
chest caused by pressure of the distend-
ed stomach on the heart and lungs, in
terfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood,
makes it thin and watery, which irri-
tates and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
troubles is to improve the digestion and
to insure the prompt assimilation Of
food.
This can best be done by the regular
use after meals, of some safe, pleasant
and effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which may
be found at most drug stores and
which contain valuable. harmless di-
gestive elements, in a pleasant convent
ent form.
1t is safe to say that the regular, per-
sistent use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets at meal time will cure any form Of
stomach trouble. except cancer Of
stomach.
Full sized packages Of the tablets
sold by druggists at so cents.

NAY O THE SALE.

Mortimer F. Taylor returned yester-
day morning from New York city,
where he went for the purpose of tax
ing the testimony Of Russell Sage, to
be used in the case of the heirs. Of the
late ex-GOv. Evans and Robert E. Carr
OF st. Louis against the Union Pacific
railroad and George Gould and Russell
Sage as trustees. The plaintiffs in the
case are en%deavoring to reopen the de-
cree Of foreclosure and prevent the sale
of the Denver and Cheyenne division OF
this road. In the reorganization of the
Union Pacific this branch Of the road
cuts an important figure, and the suit Is
now assuming a serious aspect, and
promises to be the cause of some
changes in the plans of reorganization
that have been laid out.
Mr.. Taylor declined to state the char,
acter Of the testimony secured from Mr..
Sage, but it Is believed to be OF a very
important nature and to bear strongly
upon the management of the road. Mr..
Taylor was in conference much of yes
