The worst cough can be cured in two

then get four ounces of rock candy and
put half of it in each bottle OF Peru

cures. For the first three or four days
there is no great improvement in the
cough, but from then there is a grad

two weeks. it is completely cured. 1t

Even the Roman press cannot swallow
the Emperor's ''vice-regency of heav-

manifests considerable uneasiness on
the subject and throughout Germany a
significant note of danger has been
sounded
The Emperor's speech is generally
interpreted as meaning that His Mai
esty is determined not to yield to the
wishes Of Parliament, and the newspa-
pers, though not daring to say so open
ly, clearly intimate that the Emperor's
idea of his mission does not agree with
his constitutional position. While His
Majesty may be responsible to nobody
but God, it is added, the responsibility
for the Emperor rests upon the Minis
tiers, whose work the nation intends to
control, no matter how omnipotent or
omniscient His Majesty procIaims
himself.
The thoughtful and liberal-minded
in Germany feel much abashed, and.
naturally, the Conservative and the
whole of the reactionary press are loud

are hosting the danger

The other day II etroit youth who had come home from college for vaca- ton took his youngest sister out to see baseball game. She is a quiet, de- mure little lass, says the Free Press, with blue eyes and timid manner, and she slipped into her seat in the grand stand as staidly as ifshe were entering the family pew at church.
 As the game progressed he kindly undertook to explain to her something about it's points so she would under stand at least little about it.
 ''Now the man is about to throw the bail" he said. "He is called the pitcher. The man with the stick in his hand is the batter. He will try to hit the ball, and if he does. he will run to that little bag, which is called base"
 The young mans sister seemed to be quite interested, and listened attentive ly to his explanations.
 Presently somebody hit out two- bagger that went clear through the shortstop, and lit out for first like a wild turkey.
 The young man began to explain
 ''Now, he said. Eff the fielder throws the ball to the man on the bag be- fore-''
 The young man ceased suddenly.

New Reservoir Site Law.

A new law passed by congress for the
 benefit of those directly or indirectly interested in live stock raising is not
 generally known of, but will be taken
 advantage of by many in the various cattle raising states and territories of
 the west. The privileges conferred by this enactment are set forth in the fol- lowing provisions:
 Section 1. That any person, live stock com pany or transportation corr eratiOn, engaged in breeding, grazing, driving or transporting live stock may construct resery oirS upon unoccupied lands of the United States not mineral or oth' erwise reserved, for the purpose of furnishing water to such live stock, and shall have control Of such reservoir, under regulations prescribed by the secretary of the interior, and the land upon which the same is constructed. not exceed ing 15O acres; so long as such reservoir is main tained and water kepttherein for such purposes; provided, ,that such reservoir shall not be fenced and shall be open to the free use of any person desiring water to water animals of any kind

John Pratt Dead.
[Gazette 1


 A telegram received here yesterday from GiIa Bend stated that John Pratt, l tho druggist. who was assaulted and robbed, had died shortly after midnight of Tuesday.
 A dispatch received from Sheriff Orme yesterday at the sheriff s office, stated that the murder was thought to have been committed by half breed Indian who speaks good English and warned the officers to be on the lookout for the individual. What makes the matter more mysterious IS the absence of any trail leading from the store where the murder was committed. which gave rise to the belief that the assassin had boarded freight train, but whether he went east or west there is no means of ascertaIning. The posse headed by couple of expert Indian trailers, who started out shortly after the dying man was discovered, has not yet returned to Gila Bend.
 The citizens of the little railroad town are much wrought up over the murder and if the assassin is captured he will be lynched.

Nc Pay for Dead Mouse.

.TeUpe Ncws.
 Atternay-G General Frazier yesterday aGvised Governor McCord against the payment Of the claim of Sheriff H. E. Freudenthai ofLincoln coun ty, Nevada, for the reward of $500 offered by this territory for the capture of Mouse" !" the Piute murderer. The eattorney-gen- erals decision is ba ed upon two cir cumstsnCes. One IS that the terms of the procIamatioD Gf reward were not compiled with. The reward was not offered for the taking of Mouse" dead or alive. The laws of thIs territory do, not authorize tue governor to offer a reward in those terms, though under special act of the eighteenth legislature. such 6 proclamation was made Tn the case of the Apache Kid. According to the terms of Governor Frankiin's proc- lamation q reward of $500 was offered for the apprehension and detention of ''Mouse. Y attempt was made to ap. prehend him and his Indian pursuers had no intention Of taking hlm alive They were acting under the direction of the sherIH Of Lincoln county, by which 8 reward of $150had been offered on account Of crimes committed there.
 The papers forwarded by sheriff Freu- denthal contain an affidavit of the identification of the body O the mur- derer. The aiiidavi5 IS gned by a half dozen men. There is also list of the Indians in the Piute posse. Among them are sneh euphonious names as Hayto, Ike, Wyo, Hamlet, Munkey, BunkeFville GeoTge, Young John, Old John, Old Bill, Old George, Young Bill, Mean George, D1tehy and Sleepy. It IS no wonder that Mouse" was not taken alive.
