The People Believe
What They Read About Hoods
Sarsaparilla
Their Faith in This Medicine is
Grounded on Merit
They Know 1T Absolutely Cures
When Other Medicines Fail

Hoods Sarsaparilla is not merely SIM
pie preparation of Sarsaparilla, Dock,
Stillingia and little Iodide of Potassium.
Besides these excellent alternatives, it
also contains those great anti-bilious and
liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion.
1t also contains those great kidney reme-
dies, Iva Ursi, Juniper Berries, and
Pipsissewa. !
Nor are these all. Other very valuable
curative agents are harmoniously COM
bined in Hoods Sarsaparilla, and it is
carefully prepared under the personal
supervision of regularly educated phar-
macist.
Knowing these facts, is the biding faith
the people have in Hoods Sarsaparilla a
matter of surprise? You can see why
Hoods Sarsaparilla cures, when other
medicines totally, absolutely fail.

TO EXPLORE MESA CLIFFS
Professor Libby of Princeton University En-.
cages in Interesting Undertaking.
Will Use Kites to Reach the Hitherto
Inaccessible ClinS In New MEXICO
Indian Reservation.

Prof. William Libby of Princeton Univer-
sity. accompanied by several scientists.
will leave thre tomorrow TO explore the IA
nous Mesa cliffs i'm the Indian reservation
of New Mexico. 1t is expected that the
task will require many weeks for its com
pleton.
The Mesa cliffs occupy one-third of the
territory of New Mexico TO the west OF ihe
Sierra Madre mountains, and bear marked
resemblance to gigantic fortresses OF cas-
Ties. They are ponderous heaps of rocks,
200 feet IN height. From the plain below
can be seen peaks of extinct volcanoes and
the tops of fertile hills, but white men
have never scaled the lofty cliffs and penc-
trated the UNEMPLOYED region, which is
thought to abound in valuable minerals
and relics of prehistoric ages.
Professor Libby is geologist and an arc
tie explorer He conceived the idea of at
tempting to investigate this district many
years ago. but no means offered itself Until
William A. Eddy perfected "A kite machine
for aerial transportation. Mr.. Eddy has
built n contrivance. formed of four huge
ties, arranged in "A square. fifteen feet
apart which can be sent up to height Of
$40 feet. The apparatus has been sent to
New Mexico by express, and an expert kite
flyer Will Join Professor Libby's party.
The intention is to send the kites into the
air above the cliffs and make them sta
tionary- An automatic arrangement at the
proper time will drop a weight and cord 10
the earth. BY this cord will be drawn
through a pulley small-sized rope sue
ceeded by a rope of larger size, until "A cable
has beer hoisted In case the kite contriN-
ance fails, recourse will bc had to several
large mortars borrowed from the United
States government, from which rockets will
be fred with ropes attached.
The object of the expedition is primarily
to secure scientific knowledge but its pro.
motors believe there will be enough OF Valu.
able minerals or gold found on the cliffs &c
defray the expenses Of the expedition.
At the foot of the gigantic walls have
been found the fossils of prehistoric ami.
mails. From the base of the cliffs can he
distinctly heard the sounds of rushing
water. and, as the cliffs are green with
foliage, scientists believe there is a vast
lake on the heights which has no outlet
The Indian tribes which occupy the terri
tory about these cliffs believe they are
enchanted.

Record of the Clubs.

Yesterdays game at Cincinnati between
the Washingtons and the Red Legs was
witnt ssed by about 5000 persons, and the
enthusiasm was great when, at the con-
cusion of ter innings, the home club had
put another game to its credit by the score
Of 4 to 3. Luck played an important part
in the contest but everything goes in case
ball and the Senators may catch the mas
cot later
Mercer was on the rubber for the Sena-
tors and pitched one of his best games. his
work being particularly noticeable with
men on bases. Winnie's curves would be
laced out pretty regularly. but when the
necessary ball came to be hit the good
looking boy from Liverpool put on steam
and the runner died on the bases.
Breitenstein was up for the Cincnnatis
and, of course. that meant a very few hits
for the visitors; but the Washington boys
got in lucky hit two-basger by Far
rell. in the first inning, and drove two runs
over the plate. After the first inning
Brett settled down. and when the final
reckoning was made it was found that the
Senators had secured exactly six safe
drives off of his delivery, while Mercer had
been hit for thirteen
Washington's third and last run came their
way in the ninth. when they tied the score
a base on balls again proving costly to the
nome club. Farrell walked to first four
bad ones, reached second on fuckers sac
r;fce and came home on Rcily's single.
For six innings the EwingiteS had ciphers
ckalked up to their credit, but in the sew
enth their talies came in a bunch and real
ly won the game there and then. Miller led
Off with a nice two-bagger and then came
home on Naughns single. Vaughn was
forced at second on Ritches hit to Mercer
Again Il grounder was rolled to Mercer by
PETIT but this time Winnie was excited
over O'Brien's slowness at second and
threw wild, Richie going to third on the
error. Then PeitZ started to steal second
as Breitenstein struck out. Farrell threw
the ball to DeMCEt but the latter threw
home wild and the second run came home
Burke then soaked hard single to left
and PETIT came home.
In the tenth inning the necessary run
came in. Holiday secured his second
single, went to third on Corcorans drive
to center and scored the winning run on
lrwin's single to left.
Umpire O'Days decisions are reported to
nave been for the most part against the
Senators. but this is to be expected in a

Enormous Crops Bring Wealth 10
Farmers of Washington and Oregon.
A dispatch to the New York Sun from
Seattle, Wash. says:
For the first time in several years there
Is much idle money in Washington. This
state of affairs is due in great measure to
the excellent crops of 1896. and to the pros
poets of still better crops in 1891. All the
wheat belts of the state. including the Big
Bend of the Columbia. the Palouse country.
the southwestern part of the state, and
Skagit and Whatcom counties. will pro-
duce. ii is estimated. at least one-third
more than ever. before. AID the first step of
the farmers will be to raise the mortgages
of their farms.
The debt of the farmers of Washing
tom. said G. f. Villas of the Washing on
National Building. Loan and Investment
Association OF Washington, will be de-
creased at least % per cent by this years
CROP
r. p. Latimer of Dexter. Horton & Co
says that a reduction of - per cent or
debts for the last three years is low fig
ure. Tne estimates are that the farmers
will gain Sl0.OU.Gt0 from the crops of 1897.
Jacob Furth, president of the Seattle Ma
tional Bank. says great number of mort
cages on farms have been paid off. ami he
has advices from the Big Bend to the eff
feet that this years crop is OF the very
best quality. A like condition exists in the
Palouse country.
Levi Ankeny. banker. of Walla Walla.
was in Seattle few days ago. and said
that Walla Walla had too much idle money.
f. CardinS of j. Adams < Co. says the
wheat crop will be the largest ever pro-
duced in Washington. amounting. coLserv-
atively. to about lS.pD.0tn bushels. The
farmers will probably get ~ cents in east
ern Washington and 40 cents at this port.
Seattle. owing to the opening of the oren-
tai trade, Will handle SIX times much
grain as ever before. Mr.. Carin says
there will be better times this fall than I'm
five years. Last year an east Washington
farmer went to the Northwestern Bank in
Spokane.
Take my farm he said. Il cannot bay
the mortgage
The bank not only declined to do so. but
gave him seed wheat. This year he will
clear himself of debt and have a snug bal
ance.

AFTER MANY DAYS.
Letter Received From Former
Naval Cadet MysteriGnlsly Absent.

Russell Montgomery, whose mysterious
disappearance from Annapolis, Md, about
year ago caused his parents SO much
alarm. has written a letter to his father
from Alaska, where he now has big claim
in the gold country. The young mans par
ents are wealthy residents of Portland. Ore,
and since his disappea rance they have
spent thousands of dollars in the search
for him.
Russell was nineteen years old when he
came east last year, intending to enter the
Naval Academy at Annapolis He received
his appointment in the regular way, and
went to the academy to prepare himself
for the final examination previous to being
entered UPON the rolls. Being about six
feet tall did not constitute reason why the
others should look up to him, but ii is
stated he compelled them to respect him
by his puglistic qualities. Report has it
that he came nea' clearing out the acad-
envy several times.
Finally the time for his examination ar
rived, and he was one of those who was
unfortunate enough not to pass, His fail
ure so completely embarrassed him that in
stead of returning home he quietly got out
OF sight. leaving no trace behind him.
When his father learned of his failure he
set about it to get him another chance and
In this effort he succeeded, but he did not
succeed IN finding lis son.
The young man had disappeared as COM
pieteiy as II ne Hai DeeH s"dIoWed ny
the earth. and his father came here and
sought the assistance of the detectives. In
spector Hollinberger assigned Detective
Boyd to the case, but he failed to find
trace Of the young man in this city.
Russell had good supply of cash on
hand, so that 1t was possible for him to
have gone any distance he desired. And
1t now appears that his desire was to go to
the gold feds of Alaska and there become
wealthy. When the local detectives had
failed to locate the missing man. his father
went to New York, and there sought the
assistance Of private detectives. Russell
had frequently talked of Cuba, and he was
so much interested in the Cuban cause that
his father thought he had gone there
From New York, 1t is stated, detective
was sent to Cuba in search Of the missing
one. but he was not there.
His parents have never ceased their ef-
forts to find him, and the letter received by
them recently lifted a sad load from their
hearts.

Virginia Game Law and Its Results.


To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
It Is interesting to note the good effects
OF the game law passed by the legislature
Of Virginia February, 1896. for the protec-
tior of game in Fairfax county, Va. Said
law Is to continue In force until November
l. 1898. 1t Is therefore unlawful to kill
with dog or gun the following named game
during the period named, 1. e., February,
1898, to November I. 1898. the exception
being that you can in said county trap rab-
bits during the months Of November and
December of each year. and then only I
will name in proper order the game so pro-
tected: Deer, wild turkeys. pheasants,
Monaghan pheasants, woodcock,- quail rab-
bits and squirrels. Now for the result.
During the present week I was in Fairfax
county for two days In going through
woods of considerable size l started three
focks of pheasants-Eo. l, cock and hen,
thirteen young birds; No. 2. cock and hen,
eleven young birds; No. 3, cock and hen
and nine young BIRDS though think some
played 'possum and went to cover. Just
think of it-six old birds and thirty-three
young. Just suppose half of them survive
to breed next year, and We can appreciate
the great increase Of this fine game bird.
l started one flock Of wild turkeys Of very
good sfze-hen and gobbler and fifteen
young-and two punches of woodcock along
spring branch-f1ve and seven In number.
Bob white can be heard in every direction;
they are In the county to stay. and will be
found in great numbers by November l.
1885, Every ten or twelve-acre field will
show two or three good-sized coveys of
birds. OF rabbits and squirrels the in
crease will be enormous. The game law
does not deprive us OF the exciting coon
and 'possum hunts We can suit the taste
of the most fastidious. We can also shoot
hawks and owls. You may shoot crow. II
you desire, and the stringency Of the law
does not object to giving you the right to
eat crow. Snakes are under the ban, but
you are allowed to run from or kill them.
just as your courage and q convenient
stick or stone will allow. You thus see the
game law in all its phases. am proud Of
1t, and it does US honor.
