The cony High school base ball team
has made an unusually good record, this
year, and one OF the High school boys
tells OF the teams as fellows:

farmer from Idaho county as Uni
ted States Senator. The action of
the legislature will ever remain a
blot upon the fair name of this
state and those democrats and
populists who have had so much to
say about honor are responsible for
forcing this nonentity upon the
people. They have outraged the
decency of the state, debauched
themselves and disgraced every
citizen of Idaho. Their rule of
iobbery and ruin will continue for
two short years-then an indignant
public will relegate them to the
darkened dungeon of oblivion, there
to rot from the corruption of their
own dishonored carcasses.
Pocatello Tribune: Parties home
from Boise say that even in that
city the same feeling was noticeable.
The announcement of the vote was
received in dead silence. Women
wept and men could scarcely keep
back tears. There was no demon
stration of approval but only a
demonstration of terrible injury.
Salt Lake Tribune: We tell
them they have wrought no victory
over Fred T. Dubois or Clagett.
Every shaft aimed and fired at
those two men has fallen far short
of the mark, and whatever their
motives may have been, we tell the
legislature that their act shines out
simply as an exhibition of brute
force, and that they stand today
, arraigned before the world as un
grateful men and as men apparent
ly incapable of understanding thu
significance OF their work.

Senatorship.

pop press speaks alphabetically.
A few piratical gold-bug sheets re-
joice at the defeat of Dubois, but
the Boise Statesman deplores the
result. With the exceptions noted,
the influential, reliable press of the
great Inland Northwest speaks out
in no uncertain terms, deploring
the result.
Boise Statesman: The result of
the senatorial election is deplorable
Salt Lake Tribune: The legis
lature of Idaho has been unjust to
the state, has been unjust to the
West.
Pocatello Tribune: This is the
worst blow Idaho has ever received
"A disgrace to the state. A cipher
in congress, two ciphers in the sem
ate and all at the time when Idaho
needed its strongest men in the
Congress of the Nation.
Hope Examiner: Much regret
was expressed here last night when
a dispatch was received from
Representative N. G. Sisson stating
that Fred T. Dubois had been de-
feated for the United States senate,
and that Henry Heitfelt is the
senator elect from Idaho.
Moscow Mirror: The Mckinley
republicans of Idaho couldn't have
done it better if they had controlled
the legislature. Dubois and Clag-
gett are both swept into oblivion
and they have elected man who
can do no harm whatever, and he
can do his party no good.
Silver City Avalanche: Tha
was depressing piece of new
which was received yesterday b.
telephone from the State capital
stating that Henry Heitfeld, stat
senator from Nez Perez county, ha'
lust been elected to the United State
Senate. AS the word went aroun

countenances of our citizens, and

but they were affected by tn
thought of the degradation an
disgrace which Idaho has suffere
through the election of man I'll
tried, unknown, and of no especii
qualifications, and the defeat of
man who honored the state

Boise Statesman: 1t was tt
duty of the democrats under tt

JOBS OF CHEMISTS.

The Queer Glass of Patrons Tslat They
Have to Serve.
Chemists sometimes have queer ex-
periences. The following facts, says
the Chicago Journal, were told by
professor in one of the western
universities: For about ten years
1 have made a speciality of examining
and reporting upon cases Of real or sus-
pected poisoning. AS a number of my
cases have been connected with murder
trials, 1 have had considerable notice
in the daily papers. This reputation
for making analyses for poisons has
brought me queer class of patrons.
'fEvery year have one or more old
men come to me with samples of food
to be examined for poison. These men,
without exception, have married young
wives, and when the husband is ia ken
sick and does not recover as quickly as
he thinks he should, he begins to sus-
pect that his young wife wants to get
rid of him, and is poisoning him grad
ually through the medium cf his food.
Of course he does not want his wife to
know CT his suspicious, and he quietly
gets sample of the fcod he suspects.
and at some unusual hour for work,
generally either early in the morning
or very late in the evening, he comes to
me and tells me very secretly that he
wishes to have an examination for poi
son made.
Now, the odd part is that, though 1
have made a number CT sUeh analyses,
I have never found poison present in
any case. Then the husband is very
much afraid That lis wife VIII lind out
that lie suspects her, AID he gets out
of my laboratory IL TIE quickest and
quietest manner possible. So every
year expect 10 see -soHne elderly man
coming GpPreEersiTcly Up ~ cfIice
stairs with woll-coneealed sample Of
food about him to [oe examined for poi
son. Every year he comes. every year
make my analysis and find no poison,
and every year the old gentleman gets
information that he considers cheap at
the price"

that the very best medicine for restoring
the tired out nervous system to healthy

is purely vegetable, acts by giving tone
to the nerve centres in the stomach,
gently stimulates the Liver and Kidneys,
and aids these organs in throwing off
impurities in the blood. Electric Bit

sENsoRY HALLuclNATIoNs.
The seeing of Ghosts Due to Defective
EyesiGht.


A recnt number of the Australian
Medical Gazette contains a brief but
Instructive report of the cure CT a case
of hallueinatory disorder. The patient,
a man aged GO years, had suffered for
two years from subjective visual sensa-
tions not day passed that he did not
see large number of spectral human
figures, and believing himself to be
haunted by ghosts he had become very
respondent and melancholy. On seek
ing medical advice it was found that
he had senile cataract. When this was
removed by operation the ghosts fed
and the man recovered his usual health
In this connection we may cite the case
of tradesman in Berlin whose shop
was haunted by apParitions resembling
in appearance some OF his deceased Gus
toners. He was an intelligent man,
aware that he suffered from sensory
hallucination, and made notes of his
subjective impressions. In due time he
submitted his eyes to examination and
operation, with the result of a restora-
ton of normal vision and the immeci-
ate and final disappearance of his in
tangible visitors. The obvious teach
ing of the foregoing and similar cases is
that in these modern days the person to
be resorted to for the exorcism of spir-
its and demons is the opthalmic sur
Reon.
