 Oyer and Badly Hurt.
 A great crowd of interested specta- tors gathered at the central Green yes terday afternoon shortly before ? o'clock to witness the test of the new fire engine The fire commissioners were present as a board of inspection. The steamer was stationed at the hy- drant opposite Court street, and two lengths of hose laid across the Green. Two streams of water were thrown from opposite the United church to within a few feet of Center church. The test was made with several differ ent size nozzles Streams were also thrown straight up into the air and ex- ceeded the elevation of the flag pole The test was considered very satisfac tory.
 A large number of small boys were present and had great fun tossing their caps up into the stream to see them shoot through the air. Once when the stream was lowered a little newsboy received almost the full force of it in the head and he was sent spinning to the great amusement of the crowd. Another little boy was more seriously injured, though not in the test. It was Herman Terpening, jr., eight years old, of 4S9 State street. He was playing on the hose truck with a number of com panions. Some of the other boys be- gan to draw the truck along and Her man fell under the wheels. The truck passed over one leg and his left side. badly bruising the boy. He was carried into the fire department office, where | pr. c. A. Lindsey made an examina- l ton. He did not consider the lad very seriously injured and he was taken | home by his father.

ONE DISEASE AND ONE REMEDY.

ONE DISEASE AMI 1--WE NbhD
"The art of painting" said Millais,
Consists In selecting the right colors
and putting them in the right place"
THE way to win a battle" said Ma
poleon, sis to mass your troops at the
critical moment against the weakest
spot in the enemy's line. THE way to

DR.. Abercrombie, lis to purify the poi

Thus wisdom and experience simpli-
fly and condense. Thus the Shakers
Of Mount Lebanon reasoned when
they sought, and finally found, rem
edy for indigestion and dyspepsia
Where one person has something else,
they argued, a thousand have this. To
cure this alone will almost rid the
world of sickness. Why should We
yex ourselves with confusing defini-
tons? A good digestion is life and
health: a bad one disease and death.
Hence, from the healing and stimulat-
ing mountain herbs, they extracted
the principles which make the Sha-
ker Digestive Cordial the rarest and
most effective medicines for one dis
ease. one one only-indigestion and
dyspepsia.
Do you suffer from any of these mis-
cradle feelings depression of spirits,

vous weakness and alarm, worry and
WEAKNESS, costiveness or irregularity
of the bowels, nausea, palpitation, sick
headache, heartburn, loss of appetite
and sleep, dry skin, ETC.?
Don't indulge in fifty foolish fancies.
You have indigestion and dyspepsia
and nothing else. Set the disordered
stomach right with the one medicine
which will surely do it. Shaker Diges-

vanish with their cause. A good eff

WOLVES INCREASING.
Montana Ranchmen Complain of the
Depredations of the Animals.

The gray wolf, the bane of cattlemen
and flock masters, appears to multiply
and flourish in defiance of the efforts of
the hunter and the price set upon his
head, says the Benton River (Mont.)
Press. Advices from all sections of the
range country report that gray wolves
are as numerous and destructive as ever.
Range riders are witnesses to the fact
that the latest and strongest steers
are frequently overcome by these fero-
cious beasts, while the weak and infirm
surrender to their attacks almost with
out struggle. The live stock loss OF
Montana from this source cannot be
calculated, but from the nature of the
case it must be tremendous. Profess
sional hunters state that the gray wolf
Is an exceptionally difficult animal to
circumvent. His cunning Is remark
able and his suspicious nature causes
him to avoid any locality which his
keen senses notify him has been invaded
by his human enemy. He is not gre
garious animal, preferring to roam in
small punches, which prevents such a
wholesale killing as could be accom-.
plished if large band should fall with
in the power of the hunter. he avoids
poisoned bats and dead carcasses; he is
essentially beast of prey, preferring
fresh meat at all times, and when the
pangs of hunger are felt he starts out
to find something with warm blood in it.
For these reasons wolf hunting is an
exceptionally slow and precarious occu-
patton; trapping, chasing and shooting
are practically the only methods that
produce results, and attractive induce
ments are necessary to encourage hunt
ers to engage in that work as means Of
livelihood.

HUNTERS HIT BY THEIR GAME.
% Where Sportsmen Have Received
Severe blows from Birds.


Severe blows from Birds.
Game killed in full flight has mo-
mentum that carries it a long way some
times. London Field relates several in
stances where the birds have hit the
sportsman. In one case George Mon
ners was shooting in the woods Of Long
Island when q grouse, driven by heaters,
came flying along fast and high up. He
shot at it. and then, with the other
barrel, fired at another bird. Just as
he was about lowering his gun after
the second shot he received blow on
the head that knocked him sense
less. The grouse first hit had tumbled
against his head.
That same afternoon wheelman
riding along near the line of hunters
sdmiring the scenery did not observe a
big black cock till its feathers brushed
his head. The black cock had been
killed and had nearly hit him in falling.
The Badminton volume on shooting
tells how the late Charles Leslie was
Knocked out at the battery by q grouse
he had shot A strong hat probably
saved him from serious injury.
American hunters have had similar
experience. A man was riding along
in a wagon some time ago, according
TO Forest and Stream, when something
hit him on the head with enough force
to make him dizzy. An unwounded
partridge flying through the woods had
hit him fair. Why the bird did not turn
aside is as much a mystery as the fact
that partridges sometimes fly against
house sides and are killed in so doing.

HOW HE GOT HIS EITHER.

A Mssourian Sent Abroad for an instru-
ment with Funny Results.
A musical instrument dealer tells
good story at the expense Of musical
ly-inclined and wealthy resident of the
little Missouri town Of Hermann, says
the st. Louis Globe-Democrat. Some
time ago he wanted fine either and
searched the local market for one that
would suit him. The time he spent was
Of sufficient value to pay for an or
binary instrument, and yet he did not
succeed in getting anything that quite
satisfied him. Confident that there was
nothing in this country that would an
swer. he wrote to European dealers,
and finally ordered one that he thought
would go ahead Of anything ever seen
in this section.
His friends were all posted and await
ed the arrival of the instrument in
anxious expectancy. 1t came few
days ago, and the package was careful
ly opened in the presence of half dozen
admiring friends. The either was a
beauty, there was no installing that,
but on closer examination there was
the makers stamp indelibly placed on
the frame, and it read: Washington,
Mo-, U. s. A." Q neighboring town of
Hermann. The gentleman might have
saved $50, in addition to the express
and import charges, and have avoided
all the waiting which he had to en-
dure. But he would never have been
satisfied.
The either is an expensive instrument
and difficult to manufacture, being very
delicate and requiring the best of ma
terial and most skillful of workmen,
but dealers say it is fact that the man
ufacturers of this country make the
best ones placed on the market. There
are but three factories in this country,
one in this state and two in the east.
Their instruments are largely sold in
Europe, some of them without being
branded, and then sent back to this
country at prices 100 per cent. above
what they should be. The ocean trips
may improve them, but the Hermann
gentleman cannot see just where IL
comes in.
