NO PROFITS FOR DEALERS.

Diamond Merchants Forced Out of Bust.
ness by S%muGglers.
NEW YORK, July 23.-The World
says: The announcement is made in
Maiden Lane that the big diamond firm
Of Neerescheimer & Co. will retire from
business on Jan. l, 1898. Similar an
nouncements have been made by T. g.
NJ. Bruhl, and Freund & Co. About 20
firms of similar standing have either al
ready retired or intend to do so.
f. August Neerescheimer, senior part.
ner of Neerescheimer & Co., said to q
reporter, that firms representing about
$4,000, 900 had been forced out of
the diamond business by smugglers. In
1898, said lie, the duty on diamonds
was advanced from 10 per cent to 25
per cent. The imports at that time
amounted to Sl3, Ooo, 900 yearly. Since
then they have fallen off to 81, 500. 900.
In those four years diamond smuggling
reached enormous proportions. 1t is not
unusual for diamonds to be bought in
England and sold in New York at an
advance of only 5 per cent OF the pur.
Cudsc lIiOucy.
I'VE know when a large sale of gems
is made in Europe, and if the same
diamonds appear on the market here at
q price that would mean q loss had they
gone through the custom house, we
know they have been struggled. It is
not the fault Of the customs officers.
The slnugglers have become SO expert
that detection is almost impossible"

THE BLAlNE-LINcoLN COUNTY LlTIGA
TON.

Our people are aware that there is a
suit pending in the Ada County District
Court to settle the debt between Blaine
| and Lincoln counties.
Blaine county claims nearly one hun
dred and fifty thousand dollars more
than Lincoln county admits.
This suit has been pending for more
than year and the crowded condi ton
of the docket has prevented its being
reached for trial.
The attornies in the case have stipu-
lated that the case may be tried in vaca-
ton whenever the Judge can find time
to hear it.
On Monday last both sides met at
Boise to arrange the preliminaries for
trial. Blaine county was represented by
ri ngsbury, Parsons and Price as her at
tornies, and Mr.. Martin and Mr. Garrett.
And Lincoln county was represented by
Mr.. Williams and Mr.. Bierbower, her
attornies, and also by Commissioner
Fuller.
All that was agreed on was that the
court might appoint Charles S. Kings
ley of Boise, referee to find the facts in
this case and when he makes his report
then the law questions will be argued.
Mr.. Kingsley will began his investiga-
ton into the facts about the first of
May, and probably will be ready to re-
port N onth later.
In either event this case must go to
the Supreme court, and most of the COM
ing year will be taken up with the liti-
CATION.
The expense connected with this pro-
tracted trial, is unavoidable. This suit is
forced on Lincoln county and she must
defend herself. Our commissioners Of
fered to correct any errors that might
unavoidably have occurred, but Blaine
county ignored our requests and began
this litigation. Our counsel are now
fighting every inch OF ground and will
carry the case through all the courts.

BANEFUl- INDIGESTION.
THE DISORDERS 1T CAUSES AND THE
POIsoNs 1T xNsTILs IN THE BLOOD.

If we only knew how dangerous, insidious
and ruthless adsease indigestion is, we would
not wait as we do before endeavoring to cure IT.
The longer we wait, the more dangerous it is
likely to become.
So the sooner we take Shaker Digestive Cor
dial the better it will be. and the better we will
be.
Indigestion is dangerous because it creates
poisons in the stomach which are absorbed by
the blood and by it carried to all parts of the
body.
Could anything be worse than this?
These poisons would not be formed If the
stomach could digest its food. When it can't.
Shaker Digestive Cordial will help il to do so.
Nothing will help the stomach so well as
Shaker Digestive Cordial, nothing else cure in
digestion so quickly, or so positively.
The reason is that it purifies the stomach
and the blood, and makes your food strengthen
instead of poison you.
1t is not a medicine. but an aid to digestion,
pleasant cordial for weak stomachs.

OF the game today were Newell's head

Have you ever read newspaper article,
a glowing account of some incident told
in elusive words to lead you on, and found
it ended up with a proprietary medicine
advertisement? Made you mad didn't it?
And were you convinced of the merits of
the article? We think not, because it told
the experiences of some stranger in a far

she must take proper care of herself and
see to it that the delicate organs that are
distinctly feminine are always healthy and

good health in this one respect, and as

her general health who is suffering from

directly on these organs. 1t makes them

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Niclserson Comedy Co.

The Nickerson comedy company We're
warmly welcomed at their opening per-
Torrance of a week S engagement by an
audience which completely filled the
Portland theatre and its standing capaci-
ty, many being turned away. The enter
tainment was most acceptable to the inn
mense gathering. The Young Inventor,
a comedy drama in three acts, was pre-
sented and there were introduced the
thrilling situations incident to strike
and the humorous and amusing scenes
which travesty on hypnotism afforded.
