COUNTERFEITER CAUGHT.
The Police of Syracuse Make an Important
Capture.

Capture.
On Monday the 18th, Harold Marquisee, OF
Utica N Y was arrested in Syracuse, N. y,
on 4 warrant sworn out by the DIR. Williams
Medicine Co., charging him with forgery. On
the 18th of December Marqusee visited phot0-
engraver in Syracuse, saying he was the repre-
sentative of the Dr. Williams Medicine Co.,
and arranged for the making of full set of
plates for the direction sheets, labels, ETC.. OF
the famous DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. News of this reached the home Office,
and no time was lost in arranging Tor his ar
rest when he should return for the plates. He
returned on the 10th and was accordingly ar
rested, and is now in Jail in Syracuse awaiting
examination, which occurs OH March 2d.
This arrest proves to be an important one
In addition to various plunder, such as medi-
cal books, typewriters, rugs, etc, found IN
Marauisee's trunks when arrested, the police
also found counterfeit coin both in tho trunk
and on his person; and in search OF his apart.
ments at Utica found complete outfit for
counterfeiting, consisting of crucibles, bellows
nickel, lead, bismuth, antimony, small black
smith forge, q charcoal furnace and several
paster-of. paris molds. The United States
marshals want him just as soon as the DIR.
Williams Medicine Co. are through with him,
and no doubt, he will be sentenced for long
period.
In selecting DR.. Williams Pink Pills for his
counterfeiting operations he showed his knowl-
edge of the proprietary medicine business for
these pills are in such great demand that they
are easily sold at any drug store in the United
States. His scheme was to work the country
druggists and sell his limitations at discount
Of from 2 per cent. to per cent, explaining
the reduced price by the fact that he bad picked
them up in small lots aud at discount from
dealers who were o7erstocked. by working
fast and making lohg jumps he would have Sc
cured many hundreds ofsdollars in n short time.
The proprietors of DR.. Williams Pink Pills arc
most fortunate to have caught the ,ogne before
he had fairly started, aDd to have thus kept
these spurious goods out of the market.

A SOCIETY OF PATRIOTIC WOMEN y

The growth and multiplication Of patriotic
societies in the closing quarter of this century
make it interesting to know something of their
origin. their aims. and the work already ac-
complishc5. ODe Society dates back to the
War of the Revolution, that of the Cincinnati I;
the Others of which there are several. have
been organized since the Centennial, 1876. OF
all of these we shall only refer to one in this
paper. that of the Daughters of the American
Revolution. A few earnest women not many
years ago banded themsel together by the
bond of a worthy purpose. But one aim was
in mind, TO elevate American citizenship. to
pcrpetuate her institutions and enthuse pat
riotsm into the hearts of the American people.
They builded better than they knew. The
small beginning of IL members in October,
1890, now numbers is. .oo0-women who are true

ancestors; who hold their couatry's liberties
sacred as their honor; who want to look upon
the past with pride and the future with con fl
dence: who want 10 teach the vital lessons of
liberty and patriotism to the children grow
ing up around them, who will thereby become
o factor in American life and directors in
American thought.

PALTERING IN THE SENATE

PALTERING IN THE SENATE.
Some Purbiind Politicians Who Stand in the
Way, of Progress.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE Is it not
pitiful and disgusting to see how certain pea
nut politicians in the United States Senate
are whimpering and slObbering against
immediate, courageous action on the Nicar-
aqua Canal bill, the cable to Hawaii, and
other International questions of superlatiye
importance to the present and future prest-
ige and progress of tie United States in the
affairs of the world? All other important
nations are laying the foundations for manly
prowess in the great world-struggle and
competition in both commercial and military
affairs which are already begun. Only the
peanut politicians oins the United States
Senate are lacking in brains and patriotism
to see and take advantage of the oppor-
tunities which sti1f remain in these closing
years of the 10Th century, and which will
be needed in the struggles of the Goth cen-
tury, which are near at hand.
Whether the United STAT .s prepares for it
or not, its geographical situation, the char
acter of its Government and institutions,
together with it. PRONUNCIATION OF the Mon
roe Doctrine, will compel The United States
to face and meet facts and complications OF
sternest peril, both on land and sea, as t...,e
and changes go on.
Arbitration treaties are all right in their
times and places. But let no one be de-
ceived. Wars on land and sea, at times, are
inevitable, especially for nations which are
not prepared to assert and maintain their
interests and rights against all comers. The

Station platform jam full Of freight
and more coming. Passengers have to
take their chances and get on the train
anyway they can, and the acrobatic
performances of dignilied old ladies
and up-to-date young maids skipping
over mining machinery and barbed
wire would be funny if it wasn't so
serious. This is the same old station
and platform that did duty out in the
sage brush before there WAS any pas
senger or freight business in the
county. The only trouble with it now
is the depot is too small and the
platform is too short on both ends; in
other respects it is fine example OF
railway generosity. Taking note of
passing trains one would think the
U. 2. had gone out Of the carrying
trade and turned everything over to
the D. q r. G., r. c. w. and A. 7.

AZURITE AND MALACHITE.

Richness of the Mass.

Mr. A. e. Heald arrived in Wei
ser Sunday from the Head mine.
This property is situated at the head
of Brownlee creek, about 20 miles
north Of west from Salubria, and has
always been considered good pros
pect The development so far con-
sists of two tunnels, one of 1876 feet
and one rs feet. AT present both
show ore in the face and also cutting
different veins of one to two feet.
The character OF the ore is very fine
two foot vein of azurite or blue
carbonate of copper and malaclite-
samples of which are on exhibition.
They are beautiful specimens, and
so variegated and brilliant in colors
rs tn make them valuable for orna-
mental purposes aside from their ac-
tual mineral worth The location of
this property is such that down hill
road can he made to Salubria valley.
Mr.. Heald went tn Boise, but expects
TO return soon and continue develop
mcnt work. The everlasting problem
of transportation comes IN and prac-
ticnllv prohibits the mine becoming
an actual producer. Experimental
tests, made in primitive way, pro-
duced several fine nuggets OF appar-
emily pure copper, and from so small
Il quantity of rock as TO fally euaran-
tee the great richness of the mass.

One Hundred Men,

One hundred men in two years
time would dig out enough wealth
from the mountains of Washington
county to pay for a railroad one hun
bred miles long We have the local
capital to start and the local talent
to direct the enterprise and yet hold
back and wait on the motion of some
individual or individuals in the East
to invest our own resources and peck
ct the profits. They never pay any
losses This is II superstition that
should be abandoned. Ten thousand
dollars of local capital honestly in
vested in an honest enterprise would
call million Of outside money soon
or than the ignorant and exaggerated
representations Of schemers and al
legged promoters. The present Wis
lbIe resources are enough to satisfy
any competent investigator, and the
possible increase is beyond compula-
ton. The construction of Il railway
from Weiser to Salmon River and
beyond is n plain, honest enterprise,
and not a speculation, and does not
call for schcming of any kind and
the leading feature in the perform
ance should he the display of home
talent.
