Not In His Glass.

Washington Star: Although some of
them hit pretty hard, there is now and
then a story on q member of congress
that is actually too good to keep, and
he tells it on himself Representative
Curtis of Kansas tells one. He was adj
vertised to speak at a certain town in
his district, and on the same day a
prize fight was arranged for in the
same vicinity. The political meeting
proved to be by far the biggest draw
ing card and in the evening the little
hotel was crowded with the admirers
of both politician and pugilist. The
pugilist was feeling sore over his re-
ception. He wasn't used to such shah
by crowds, and complained en-
phatically.
Soy, what yer git Teller out here
for an trun i'm down loik this, don't

See?" And the god of sinews and
scientific hitting leaned back against
the wall in gloomy disgust, while the
village small boys and men formed an
admiring circle about him. In the
other corner of the room Mr. Curtis
and his friends were discussing politics.
1--WE did allow to make your coming
quite a society affair." remarked one of
the village dudes, in sack coat and a
s'chimney pot" hat, as he lounged ia
miliarly up alongside the pugilistic
tough. But you see the state central
committee had arranged for Charley

The Great Battle.

The most exciting day in the history
of the senatorial contest so far as Og-
den is concerned was yesterday. By
reason of the bulletins which are tele-
phoned promptly from the main office
in Salt Lake to The Herald bureau this
office is the vortex for the whirlpool of
political enthusiasm and is crowded
about balloting time. The greatest ex-
element was reached yesterday be-
tween and o'clock when it was
thought a ballot was being taken. In
the throng crowding The Herald office
and the hallway leading thereto were
Representatives of nearly all the pro-
LESSONS and trades in Ogden. The
newspaper fraternity was represented
among the callers by Editor Francis
of the Standard, Hayes of the Tribune,
Littlefield of the Switch, and Manager
Thomas of the Press. An erroneous re-
port came to another office to the effect
that the Thatcher people were triumph
ant and had succeeded in preventing
an adjournment. There was a rush to
The Herald office and much excitement
until the correct bulletin was received.
In the main the crowd was Thatcher
crowd but Henderson and RawlinS had
doughty supporters. There was a, con-
slant call for news over the telephone.

Wanted Them Reflled.

Cattletsburg (Ky). Democrat: A
lady-a smart, intelligent. educated
woman, too. and old enough to
know a thing or two-came into Patton
Bros. drug store a few evenings ago.
She had about a dozen empty quinine
capsules, and with an innocence not to
say ignorance, that staggered the drug
gist, asked him to fill them up with
quinine for her. The obliging druggist
did as directed, and putting the refilled
capsules in a box, wrote directions on
the lid: Swallow capsules and all"
1t is now feared the woman misunder-
stood the direction and tried to swallow
the box without removing the lid.

miles Irradiate the Countenance

When those atrocious bodily troubles,
chills and fever, dyspepsia, kidney or
rheumatic disorders, yield, as they in
variably do, to the benign action OF
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a rem
edy of comprehensive use, pure in
composition, unobjectionable to a deli
cate palate, and thorough in effects.
Sick headache. loss of appetite, flesh
and sleep, nausea, heartburn, are
among the physical annoyances obvi-
ated by the Bitters. They are in the
nature of signals of distress displayed
by a disordered stomach, liver and
bowels, and disappear with the cause
that produced them. But these signals
should be needed at once. Then the
woe begone look of chronic ill health
will speedily disappear, and vigor and
comfort restore a cheerful aspect to
the face. That faithful index to the
condition of the system never fails to
wear a look of sunshine when the Bit
ters is used to dispel the cloud.

Runaway Team Takes to the Side
walk-Several Marrow Escapes.

A very exciting runaway occurred
about $3.50 yesterday afternoon. A
span of mules, attached to a wagon,
were the first offenders as they ran
into a team belonging to Mr. Dean of
Plain City. The latter team broke
loose and came up Washington avenue
on the dead run, the light wagon to
which they were attached whipping
around like a whip cracker.
The streets were crowded at the time
and there was a general scattering to
get out of the way. The team left the
street and turned down the Twenty
fourth street sidewalk, the crowd on
the Loan and Trust corner scattering
in all directions. Hagbert Anderson,
in endeavoring to get out of the way,
slipped and was all but run over. Miss
Mary Macarthur residing at 81 Twenty
fourth street, also had a narrow escape
and as it was she lost purse containing
about 500. Ex-Sheriff Wright Dan Sui

brides and the team was stopped.

And homing birds preen their swift wings

And glad or sad, we love this dear old

And to remember what good days we
