RELEASE OF CATTLE.
Nee essary Order Issued at the In
stance of Senator KYLE.

WASHINGTON. June 3-Senator Kyle has
procured an order for the release of cattle
reservation, which probably will apply to
other reservations where similar conditions
exist During the storms of the late winter
and spring cattle strayed from adjoining
ranges to the reservations, and squawmen
have demanded dollar head for their re-
lease, much to the disgust and annoyance of
the cattle owners. Senator Kyle says the
order will release many thousand cattle in
the DakOtas, Montana, Wyoming and Idaho.

Grusl. but Necesaarx.

The Eskimos dread the winter assa fake early precautions to provide againss famine As the season approaches the great herds of reindeer migrate south ward, and the walrus or the seal are all that remain for food
 When an in wind is blowing, the wal vrs is easily found on the outer edge of l1e ice packs When it is blowing oil the shore, however, the ice packs sail put to sea with the walruses on them. The natives then class their numbers iE list from the strongest to the weakest. The food that is in store is divided up. the weakest having the smallest quan- sity, the strongest the largest. Thus the mightiest hunters have strength to pro. vide for the others

gestion and q disordercd liver mean that man is fighting the first round With death. Unless he manages to strike the knockout blow it means that death Will come up in the second round in the guise of some serious malady When mans stomach is weak and his digestion IS impaired, the life-giving clements of the food he takes are not assimilated into the blood. The blood gets thin and weak, and the body slowly starves. In the meantime the disordered liver and the sluggish bow els have forced into the blood all manner of impurities The body is hungry and eagerly consumes anything that the blood stream carries to it. In place of healthy nutriment, it receives for food foul poisons that should have been excreted by the bowels. Continued, this system of starva- tion combined with poisoning, will wreck every organ i'll the body. Naturally, the weakest organ will give way first If man is naturally nervous, he will break down with nervous exhaustion or prostra- ton. If lie inherits weak lungs, the con- sequence will be consumption, bronchitis, asthma, or some disease of tie air passages. If he has a naturally sluggish liver he will suffer from a serious bilious or malarial at tack. Dr. Pieree2s Golden Medical Discov- cry cures all disorders of the stomach, di- gestion and liver. It purifes the blood and fills it with the life-giving elements of the food that build new and healthy tissue It is the great blood-maker and flesh builder and nerve tonic It cures o8 per cent of all cases of consumption.

A bridal couple who mt sn so,.....s

 nensely until the day preceding tba;r a
 departure. It then occurred to tbe brida
 that she had not called mon .5oas g1aas
 Fanny, " who had been her cbum dl1r. m
 sng her days at the seminary. Now
 Eanny was still enjoying single blessed,
 ness, and this may have had something
 1o 9o with the anxiety of the bride to
 eeell upon her maiden chum. George de-
 murred feebly, but at last consented to
 pay formal call. The bride dressed
 herself ln fetching gown and nlaced
 upon her saucy head Parisian dream
 'n the way of hat The hat was one

 mlllfner's art. mass of flowers with q
 oird or two partially concealed in the
 foliage, s0 to speak.
 me pair went gayly forth and in A hofei coupe were soon at the door of Fanny's residence Their cards were taken and they were ushered into the
 rawing room. While awaiting the coming of her friend the brides atten. aon was attracted to large cage con tainln9 2 splendid parrot. She chirruped eooinely to the imprisoned bird and wished sile Light take him out of his cage and caress him George remarked that he looked tame enough and sug- gested the opening of the door of the cage. Suiting sction 60 the word. he opened the door and the released bird calmly walked forth and strutted abont, blinking his beady eyes know ngly. The bride, with usual calls of Poll, pretty Pollt' eoaxed tho bird to- ward her, and poll proceeded to climb ID the rounds of the chair upon which he lady was sitting and perched herself ipon the arm of the chair. The parrot Uttered guttural cries of Polly, Polly" hls word seemingly comprising her en. ire vocabulary.
 The bird accepted the caresses, aud apparently all was serene, but without n instant's warning she uttered a cream of rago and flew at the lady'a eadgear, alighting fairly thereon, and hen for few minutes the air was fill- q with flying feathers and bits of flow IS, while the atmosphere was fractured y screams from the bride and discord- nt cries from the parrot George at.

 The sudden wrath of tho bird waa caused, George thought upon sf1ection during ealmer moments, by le fact that amid the flowers in his rife's hat there nestled 8 stuffed Caro- nc parrakeet, which the parrot took , bc real live rival and proceeded orthwith to demolish.

Heirs Afraid of a Bomb.

By way of illustrating the nervous ness which tho recent explosions havs revived here, a queer adventure which has just befallen the heirs of house owner may be mentioned. They had met at tho dwelling of their departed uncle for the purpose Of drawing np aD inventory of his effects in company with lawyer and had nearly completed their task when one of them pulled out of q cupboard metal box, which was laid on the table and which the man of business was about to open, when one of his nieces cried out in horror: Don't touch itl Look, that is fuse. Sure enough, there was a little something popping out of the cover. "It is 8 bombl" exclaimed the panic stricken heirs in chorus, and then they proceed ed to remark that their deceased re1a- tive had been a moody, silent and re- served sort of individual, and thoncS they inferred that he might possibly have been all anarchist. Two of the uephews had had put on their hats and were on the point of rushihg off to the office of the nearest police oommissary. when the lawyer, who had been quietly inspecting the box, calmly suggested that it might simply contain some pre- served fruit. This theory somewhat re.
 assured the men, but the ladies wouls
 have their way The commissary waa sent for. and the mysterious box YVES soon on it's way to the municipal laborn,
 tory. It was found to contain pine
 apple, the stalk of which had been mic
 taken for fuse. So the good old uncla,
 who had been so ungratefully maiignedt
 had not beea an anarchist after all. ~-

Diseases of Miners.

Az to whether thera arc any disenHee peculiar to the miners calling there is evidence that, with one, or perhaps two. exceptions, there are none such. These exceptions arc an affection of the eye, termed "nystagmus, and. iii a lesser degree, that disease of the respiratory organs which usually goes by the name of miners asthma. Nystagmus nl- though not prevalent affection, is one with well marked symptoms directly traceable to the posture of the collieS while at work.
 The symptoms arc oscillation with more or less of rolling motion of tho eyeballs, giddiness, with headache, and the appearance of objects moving i'll circle, or lights dancing before the eyes
 In severe cases the person infected may stumble and be so much incon- venieneed as to be obliged to stop work. Dr. Simeon She'll of Sheffield has given this disease special attention for about 90 years and has published the results of his investigations, which show be- yond all reasonable doubt that nystag- mus is confined almost entirely to those underground workmen who are engaged in holing or undercutting the coal, and is due to the miners habit of looking upward above the horizontal line of vision, and more or less obliquely while at work lying on his side. It has been observed also in firemen and others who have occasion frequently to examine the roof, turning the eyes ohliduely while doing so. Any other occupation in which the person may habitually turn the eyes upward and sideways will induce nyBtagmus. Goal Trade Jour nal.

The History of Missouri.

The Missouri Text Book Commission
has very popularity determined to
have the history of Missouri taught in
the public schools, and hence has
adopted Perry 8. RAIDERS History Of
Missouri and Civil Government, q
volume of some four hundred pages
and admirably adapted for It's pur-
pose. The retail price OF the book is
seventy-five cents, and the price per
mail postage prepaid eighty Ave cents,
and the wholesale price sixty-six
cents. That every child should know
the history of his own state Is as i'm
portant as that he should be familiar
with the history Of any other part OF
the world, and 1t is to be hoped that
the book will be taught in every school
I'm the State. The publisher is e. W.
Stephens, of Columbia, Missouri, who,
like the author,is native of Missouri,
making the work peculiarly q Missou-
ri product. Orders accompanied by
the cash mailed to Mr.. Stephens at
Columbia, will be promptly filed. 1t
will be noted that the book, In addl-
ton to being history of the State,
comprises the civil government Of
Missouri and Of the United States, and
hence under the laws supplants all
other works on civil government here
tofore used in the public schools Of the
State.

MUNCIE GIRLS

leo Boys, Look Out.

MUNo1E, IND, Aug. pa peculiar
war between the sexes In the society
circles of this city is ON, and 1t all orig
mated in the fact that the s'boys"
did not reciprocste in social matters.
For years the young ladies have en-
tertained with lavish hand, the func-
tions always occurring in the evening,
and invitations never failing to be is
sued to full representation of the
manlier sex. For some unknown rea-
son the young men always stag to the
theater or to entertainments of high
order, where no invitations are re-
quired.
The young ladies conceived the idea
of getting revenge. Instead of enter
tanning In the evening they are giving
their social functions only in the after
noon, and ladies only are the guests,
of course. Consequently life socially
has suddenly become very dry and
dull for the young men. The theatre
cal season has not opened yet, very
few entertainments are being given
and there Is scarcely q ripple OF
amusement from dawn Sunday morn
ing to dusk Saturday evening for the
Magic City youths.

MOB oUTwITTED AT KIRKsvILLE.
Jamison, Ward and Finley Taken to
Macon (Mo.) Prison.

MACON, Mo-, Aug. 25,-Dick Jami-
son, Tom Ward and Charles Finley
were brought here from Kirksville
on an early train this morning
by Sheriff Blackledge and deputy, to
save them from mob violence.
The sheriff got his men out of the
rear of the Jail while the crowd was
clamoring in front, put them In a
wagon, drove southwark and took q
Wabash train for this city.
1t was regarded as a close call for
the prisoners, all of whom feelmuch re-
iieved since they got behind the bars
here. They are charged with drugging
Maud Wood, the Is year-old daughter
OF o. O. Wood, farmer living near
Kirksville.
A Republic correspondent visited
the prisoners in jail here this after
noon.
Ward and Finley, the druggists,
were willing and anxious to make q
statement of their connection with the
affair, and they say they want pre-
liminary examination as soon as 1t is
safe to hold one. They insist that
they did not know the girl was as
saulted, and were in the drug store all
forenoon of the day of the alleged
offense, engaged in waiting on custo-
mers.
Jamison admits being out with the
girl, and says they got to drinking
some and he put her in the room to
"sober up"
To Judge Ellison's dispassionate ad-
dress to the crowd more than any
thing else Is due the prevention Of
a desperate attack on the jail.

An Ohio Man Spends Over $500 to

CELINA, OHIO, Aug. 25.-Charles F.
Schneider, the only Celina man head
ed for the Klondyke, has written from
Seattle to his friends in this city, Civ
ing some idea of the expense incurred
in making the trip.
Mr.. Schneider started at Chicago
and paid $251 for his passage from
Chicago to Dawson City, Northwest
Territory, via Seattle and the st.
Michael's- Yukon river route.
SOME THINGS HE BOUGHT.
He purchased in Chicago $40 pounds
In weight of clothing and staple arti-
cles, for which he paid $173.13, max
ing, with his excess baggage charges,
s450.ss spent in Chicago. He paid ss
for sleeper to Seattle and about - tor
lunches en- route.
Upon his arrival at Seattle he pur-
chased provisions and camp outfit for
500. His complete outfit now was
1900 pounds In weight, upon which he
paid 10 cents per pound from Seattle
to Dawson City, or $50, making $915.
So.
HEAVY DUTY IN PROSPECT.
Mr.. Schneider, writing OF date Aug.
8, says there is a report in circulation
in Seattle that 50 per cent duty will be
charged upon entering British pos
sessions, which would add $500 to his
expense account. If that should prove
correct, the bulk of the pilgrims will
remain in American territory in Alas
ka.
He Is glad he chose the Yukon river
route, as he says the Chilkoot Pass is
gorged, and the packers are charging
81 cents over the pass, with the prob
ability that It will be so cents in few
more days.
