Tired Ewes.

People speak about their eyes be-
ing tired, meaning that the retina,
or seeing portion, OF the eye is fa-
tigued, but such is not the case, as
the retina hardly. ever gets tired.
The fatigue is III the inner and outer
muSile attached to the eyeball and
the .nusc]c Of Accommodation which
surrounds the. lens of the eye.
When a neur, object is to be looked
at, this muscle rclaXes and allows
the lens to tlaicLen, increasing its
rcfractive power. The inner and
outer muscles are used in covering
the eye on the object to be looked
at, the inner ono being especially
used when a near object is looked
at. It is III the three muscles men
toned that the fatigue is felt, and
relief is secured temporarily by clos
ing the eyes, or gazing at far dis
tant objects. The usual Indication
Of strain is redness Of the rim Of
the eyehd, betokening conyested
state Of the inner surface, accom-
panied with some pain Sometimes
this Weariness indicates the need of
glassos rightly adapted to the per-
son, and in other cases the true rem
edy is to massage the eye and its
surroundings as far as may be with
the hand wet in cold Water.-NeW

cattle came through in good shape,
Notwithstanding the fact that they

they had been fed and rested. T!e
cattle are Of the finest short horn

substantiates the claim that he is
the best animal Of his breed in the

During his recent visit to the
Mississippi valley Colonel McGowar
visited most Of the leading breeders
in Iowa, Minnesota and many OF
those in Wisconsin. The result O
his investigation, in which he wa
aided by Dr. Shaw and other experts
was that he selected the strain tha

stock yards as the best for his pur
poses. The introduction Of th
strain into Montana will be Of grea
benefit to the stock industry, an(
will aid in improving the quality 0

In going to his straw stacks on
Wednesday last, John II. Dawes,
living near the city, found four

Another nearly dead, he tried to
save but without avail. The horses
were badly bloated, and from all ap-
pearances had been fed oats soaked
in strychnine, as the best and Stamcst
Of the animals died. Among the
horses was one belonging to Mr..
Rittcnhouse. and DR.. Fosters Shet-
land mare.
The three others belonged to Mr..
Dawes.
This is the most heinous offense
committed in this region for some
time, and if it were possible to ap.
prehend the offender, public senti.

measures. Mr.. Dawes says lie knows
OF no enemy SO low lived as to take
this advantage of him, but the fact
seems apparent that it was done in.

COUNTY PRINTING.

In its issue Of Saturday the Mis-
soulian, commenting on all article in
the Hamilton Times, says, among
other things to the point:
Admitting that there should be
contests for county printing the bid
ders should protect their profession
as we'll as others, for by that profes-
sion they earn their living. TO de-
stroy it as many foolishly attempt to
do, is to commit suicide. One thing
that has done much to lower journal
ism in the eyes Of the people is the
reprehensiblc conduct Of men con-
nccted with newspapers. who in try
ing to advance the commercial inter
csts Of their papers do not scruplc to
make allegations against rivals.
which. even if truthful. should not
be made, but in the majority Of in
stances is false and malicious, and
are 50 considered by men Of reason
able Judgment. The publisher who
having lost the contract for county
printing by beng underbid by "a
rival, in continually claiming that
the county is being robbed by the
official printer, and were it not for
Ills Watchfuness the county would
lose thousands OF dollars, is wise
ass in his own cOnccit, and really
ought to kick himself to death.

A new printing law is needed and

the northbound passenger train at
Herndon this morning about 1l:2O
O'Clock
Smith is a saloonkeeper at Herndon,
and had gone to the pumphouse, accom-
panied by his little stepson, to chat
with friend. While he was talking
in the pumphouse the lad was outside
playing with some companions. short
ly after Smith heard the train whistle,
and went out to look for his boy Tom
my was on the other side of the track,
but on catching sight of his father,
started to cross over toward him.
The train was very near by this time.
and the agonized father saw that it
would be all over with the boy unless
he could get to him and snatch him
off the track. 1t was a desperate un-
dertaking, but Smith did not hesitate.
He jumped on the track, but he had
hardly landed when the locomotive was
upon him and his SON.
Neither was run over, but both re-
cedved injuries from which they died.
Smith was dead when picked up. His
back was broken, both arms fractured
and his bowls punctured. Tommy was
alive, but UNCONSCIOUS, and the same
train that ran him down took him to
MADEIRA for medical attendance. He
died several hours later, however His

vail in some quarters that the sending
of this fleet to Spain is intended solely
to prevent Admiral Camara from
going to the Philippines is erroneous.
There is no question that this move has
been under consideration for some time,
and it is the intention of the Govern
ment to send the vessels to Spain's S
home water, whether Camara's fleet
proceeds to the Philippines or not. If
it returns and comes within striking
distance of Commodore Watson's pow
erful squadron, it is confidently ex-
pected by the President and the men,
bers of the Cabinet that it will be
crushed, thus utterly destroying SPAIN S
power on the sea. Should it continue
its course to Manila, Admiral Dewey's 8
squadron is regarded as abundantly
able to maintain the honors it won on
May 1st.
The arrival at Manila of the trans
ports with troops from San Francisco
has not yet been reported, nor is the
news expected for some days. The
