Of news. he dropped into Fezer's drug store.
THIS, that and other medicines we're talked
of and their curative qualities analysed:
SO far as lay in their power. The cu-a.
tive powers of DR.. Williams Pink Pills were
talked OF, when Mr.. Falkner. q clerk in the
store, mentioned that Mls,Jcseph Moore was
a firm believer in their efficacy. Pursuing
his quest, the Tribune man paid Mrs Moore
q visit the next day,
Among the many good people residing il
Greeley, Colorado. Squire Moore and his
amiable wife are the best known and the
most respected. The Squire Is carrying hls
seventy-six years as strrdily as many men

grated to this country and settled in Derby.
Conn.,, where they resided for a number OF
years. While there Mr.. Moore. who was
highly respected by his neigh5ors, was elect.
ed a member OF the State Legislature in 1867.
During his residence in the United States
he has been o constant reader OF the New
York Tribune, and was OH ardent admirer
Of its founder and great editor, Horace
Greeley, and a firm believer in that notable
writer's opinions. Through those mediums
he was influenced to come to Greeley in the
early spring of 1871, and here he has resided
ever since. During his residence in this
beautiful section of northern Colorado, he
has held many responsible public positions,
notably that of Justice of the Peace. an Office
which he occupied uninterruptedly for eight
years; and four years ago was reelected to
another term, his name being placed in
nomination at the convention without his
knowledge.
The newsgatherer was lecei7ed cordially
and in response to his inquiries, Mrs. Moore
stated that her health commenced failing
several years ago but like q great many wom-
en-, she scarcely knew the meaning Of the
name sickness in relation 10 herself. She
refused medical attendance or treatment OF
any kind, barring that which she drew upon
from the family phnrmacopria or dispensary.

The Leper and the Flagstonc.

One of the principal legends connect
ed with st. Patrick's altar stone, &C.
cording to a writer in Donahoe's Maya
zine, is called the Legend Of the Leper
and the Flagstone." This story runs as
follows: When St. Patrick was embark
ing for Ireland to enter upon his mis-
sion, a poor leper came to the seashore
just as the ship was about to weigh
anchor and earnestly begged to be taken
on board. It is probable that he had
heard something Of the holiness Of the
saint and the proofs Of divine favor con-
ferred upon him, and that deep within
his inner consciousness there was born
a hope, vague at first, but gradually
growing stronger, that in the company
of st. Patrick he might expect some
a~melioration Of his pitiable condition.
Something in the man appealed to the
saint, who was SO deeply touched by
his pleadings that he expressed a wish
to have the despised leper taken on
board, but fear and prejudice had such
an influence over the sailors that they
would not allow the leper on board, and
the ship began to move out while the
afflicted man continued to plead from
the beach. The saint took his altar
stone and cast it on the water within
reach of the leper, telling him to sit on
it and remain perfectly quiet. Again
was the faith Of the man shown, and
as soon as he had seated himself the
stone began to'move over the water. 1t
followed Immediately in the wake Of
the ship until it reached the harbor of
Wicklow, and the leper thus reached
the shores of Erin in safety. st. Patrick
again took possession of the stone.

in time to see Mrs. Fenske's assailant
emerging from the house. Then began
a chase, anil a fusillade of shots on
both sides, led through corn fields and
woods, lasting half an hour. Just as
the tramp was entering another corn

suers as he lay on the ground. They
were unhurt and, surrounding him, lit

CITY MERCHANTS SEE THE MAYOR.
Want Provisions of Temporary Mer-
chandise Sale Ordinance Imposed.

Mayor Bailey has been importuned
by a number of the city's clothing
merchants to have enforced common
council ordinance, No. 6S, 1898, which
provides for the payment of heavy
merchandise and imposes a penalty for
on-conformance with the same. The
request of the merchants arises from
the locating here of a clothing concern
which is advertising extensively sale
of goods at a price below wholesale.
Mayor Bailey had the matter under
advisement yesterday. The ordinance
providing for the collection of a $500
license and a penalty of at least 500
fine and not more than thirty days in
Jail relates to firms doing a temporary
business. Its passage was based upon
an act of the Legislature making it
legal for cities, borOughs and towns to
operate such an ordinance.
There are however, two questions
which trouble the mayor in trying TO
dispose of the matter: First, the firm.
against whom the efforts Of the local
merchants are directed, claim the su-
preme court has declared the state act
unconstitutional; second, the firm does
not advertise that it is temporarily
| locating here-it advertises a ten-day
opening sale.
Mayor Bailey tried to get a legal
opinion yesterday afternoon from CITY
Solicitor Mckinley, but the latter could
not be found until it was too late in
the day to give an answer.
