Dangers of the Grin.

The greatest danger from La Grippe is Of
its resulting in pneumonia. If reasonable
care is used, however, and Chamberlain &
Cough Remedy taken, all danger will be
avoided. Among the tens of thousands who
have used this remedy for La Grippe, VIC
have yet to learn of a single case having re-
suited in pneumonia, which shows conclus.
lively that this remedy is a certain preventiv,
of that dread disease. II will effect perma'

Attempted NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. bold

attempted RODDePy.-Another bold
attempt at highway robbery was made
shortly after 0 o'clock Sunday evening on
the Queens Chapel road, about three miles
out from this city. DR.. G. A. Richardson,
OF Hyattsville, Md, had been visiting sew
eral OF his patients in the vicinity of the
RAMS Horn, and was returning home. He
just passed over the little bridge across
Northwest branch and had slackened the
reins so as to allow his horse to have
breathing spell, when he noticed the dark
forms of several men near the roadside, only
few yards in front Of him. The road at
that point is very lonely, there being no
houses within considerable distance, and
exceedingly dark owing to the number of
trees that skirt the wayside, and the doctor
was unable to tell whether the men were
white or colored. He was on the point OF
passing them when the man nearest the
middle of the road sprang forward and
grasped the reins. The doctor called to the
man to let go the bride, and taking the
whip, he struck the horse. The frightened
animal Immediately responded by plunging
forward with so much force that the man
was forced to relnquish his hold, being at
the same time thrown to one side of the
road. DIR. Richardson reached Hyattsvile
in safety and reported the attempted rob-
berry to the authorities, but there is no clue to
the identity of the wouldbe highwaymen
and it is not probable that they will be ap-

Hunt Club, of Chevy Chase, this county, has
become the actual owner of the beautiful
property it has occupied as Jesse for the past
three years. Negotiations, which have been
pending several days between the governors

ed. 1t only remains to go through the legal
formalities required in transferring property
to put the club in possession as owners.

hood OF 10000.

lawn beautiful, and the shrubbery attractive
aud plentiful. The part OF the tract upon
which the clubhouse stands is in the nature
of high terrace. The governors oil the

provements to the clubhouse. They pro-
pose to increase its size, and TO add a num-

MAN OF RIGID VIEWS WAS HE.

The play of the evening was II Of
those hilarious adaptations from the
French, where a staid householder OF
mature years takes n night off and
makes the most OF it in an atmosphere
OF champagne and general revelry, re-
lates the Kansas City Journal. AS he
performance progressed and the fun
grew faster and more furious the other
members of the party looked at the man
of rigid views with considerable solicit
tude. How would he take it? Would
he get up and go out? Might he not
even rise from his seat and denOunce
the performance? But no; he sat there
quietly enough, his face fixed in a look
of frozen intentions and his eyes glazing
through his glasses at the spectacle be-
yond the footlights. However else he
might regard the performance, he GER
tainly wasn't amused. Not a ghost OF 4
smile crossed his face. The Others might
laugh and nudge each other, but he sat
stolidly through it all to the very fall
of the curtain.
When they were going down he
stairs one OF the party had the temer-
ity to ask him how he liked the show,
and all the others waited with bated
breath to hear his whitening denuncia-
ton.
Why" he pleasantly answered, cit
was the funniest thing l ever saw in
my life"
"B-but," stammered the astonished
questioner, you didn't laugh-you did
MT even smile"
mo" answered the other, 81 didn't
laugh because I was afraid l might lose
some OF it."
And the laughter that followed that
sally was far more enjoyable than any
thing the play brought forth.

MAY CONSOLIDATE.
The Oregon Short Line and the o. R.
& N.

Omaha, April 13.-There is a story
current in Omaha railroad circles to the
effect that the Oregon Short Line and
the Oregon Railway and Navigation
company lines are to be consolidated
under M management. No one cares
to assume responsibility for the report,
but all the higher ones asked about the
matter say it is within the range OF pos
sibilities. According 10 the best accept
ed version, Edwin Mcneil, at present
at the head Of the Oregon Railway and
Navigation company, is to be removed
and w. Fl. Bancroft, general manager
now of the Oregon Short Line, will be
put in charge Of the system. Samuel
Carr, president of the Oregon Short
Line, will remain in that place. The
practical consolidation of the two lines,
and their cooperation with the Union
Pacific will, in effect, establish the Ov-
erland on much the same basis as before
the receivers were appointed and the
segregation took place.

MURDERER CAPTURED.

Anderson, Ind, April Backward
Heidler, alias William Gilbert, was ar

men were prominent, and the case was
most sensational. Heidler disappeared
as though the earth had swallowed him.
A thousand dollars reward was offered,
and it found him today, when he called
for his mail here. He said, 81 am the
man." He was looking for work. His
age is 40.

A DARING DASH.
\ Wheelman Rides Down the Steps OF
the National Capitol.

William Shields of WoonsockeL, r. l.,
rode down the steps of the west front
Of the national capitol Wednesday aft
ernoon on a bicycle, and lives today TO
tell the tale. Perhaps it would be more
exact to say, relates the Washington
Star, that he dropped slantwise from
the top Of the terrace TO the ground be-
low while astride Of a wheel. There il
no question that he accomplished the
feat, for he was photographed during
his rapid descent, and the incontrovert-
ible product of the camera is on exhl-
biticn TO convince the skeptics.
Until o no wheelman ever attempt
ed 10 ride down the steps on the west
front. though riders have accomplish
cd the feat on the east steps. The scene
OF he performance was the ascent, or
rather descent. leading to the Maryland
avenue entrance to the grounds. Here
there IRE four flights of steps mounting
the terrace. The two lower flights OF
1G steps each are broken by a landing
NS "i'Nh IN -
another landing about twice as wide and
the two upper flights of q steps each,
these in turn being separated by a
landing OF equal width to that Of the
lower steps. Thus there are "A steps
and three landings to be passed over in
the descent. Every one who has walk
ed up these steps realizes how steep
they are, and will no doubt wonder that
any one could successfully ride down
them astride OF a bicycle.
Shields waited until the steps and up
prOaches were entirely clear of visitors,
and then placing his bicycle ut the
brink Of the steep incline, swung easily
INFO the saddle and began the perilous
descent. Before reaching the bottom of
the uppermost flight he lost his pedals,
and making no attempt to regain them,
sa, rigidly upright in the saddle, his
icot hanging clear Of the rapidly revolv-
ing cranks. holding to the handle bars
with a vise-like grip. and his eyes fast
enCd iiXedly on the path at the bottom.
It only lasted for about fifteen seconds,

will be long remembered Tor is uu-
usual severity, continued cold weather
and frequent storms. What appeared up
10 January 18th a very favorable win
ter, has turned many a smile 10 tears
and many a hope to disaster. Ca,Lt,
that looked so sleek and promising in
the early winter, are today walking
skeletons. Judging by reports, sections
to then north into Montana have suffer
ed worse than our own. Sheep that were
snow-bound at Casper one month be-
fore our own deep SHOWS came have SUI
fered proportiOnately greater. While the
storms have been as severe in Albany
as west the suffering and loss among
the llocks is not as great.
With two or three exceptions losses
in the county will not be severe. The
Geddes flock that drifted across Albany
county into Laramie county was recov-
cred with slight loss. No doubt Mr..
Geddes hopes if they must drift again
it will be towards Judge ThorntCn's.
The herder that left his flock Feb.
and a night turned up at Alex Sellars'
without Il scratch.
Frank Prayer has two new herders,
just arrived from New Mexico, to help
tend the flock.
Atkinson Bros. will help John Bid
dick shear $4,000 sheep, commencing
April 18th.
Nose Gagmon has quit raising hogs
and has purchased the F~unkhouser
ranch and will turn his attention to the
cultivation of vegetables. trout and blue
grouse.
The champion mail carrier OF Wyo-
ming is Harry Garlock who runs the
route from Rock Creek to Owen. He
has not missed a trip in two years and
gets the benefit OF all the storms, go
ing or coming every day 80 miles. The
18th of march storm nearly proved his
match, after heading for Rock Creek
he tried to turn back, his hore was not
willing and as often as turned around
righted himself for Rock Creek. until
the rider became bewildered and gave
the horse his head. After several hours
riding. not knowing where he was the
horse pulled up at the stable door in
