show man the way to long and healthy
life.
Common sense teaches that man should
not over-work or over-woTry; that he should
take ample time for his meals, for resting
and for recreation and sleep; that he should
not neglect the little ills of life, because
they are the precursors of serious and fatal
maladies Chemistry has enabled men to
make combinations Of drugs that were i'm
possible in the days of the alchemists.
Medical science has taught when, how and
why these combinations of drugs should
be used. DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery is the most valuable of all health
restoring medicines, and the most effective.
Its first work is upon the fountain he ad of
life-the stomach man who has weak
and impaired stomach and who does not
properly digest his food will soon find that
his blood has become weak and impover-
ished, and that his whole body is improp-
erly and insufficiently nourished. This
medicine makes the stomach strong, tacll-
itates the flow of digestive juices, restores

Death of Ben B1anton.

Word came from Walla Walla
this week that Ben Blanton, who
was confined in the penitentiary
there, had died on Saturday and
was buried Sunday. This an
nouncement will bring to the minds
of many old residents of Colfax,
the most cold blooded murder ever
committed in the county. Decem-
Der II, 1889, Blanton shot and
killed Thomas Click, and shot at
and endeavored to murder J. r.
Bennett and Samuel Doble. Blan-
ton was tried in March, 1890, found
guilty of murder and sentenced to
be hanged. Securing q new trial,
he obtained verdict of murder in
the second degree and was given 20
years imprisonment. He was taken
to the psnitentiary in 1890 Dur
ing most of the time since Blanton
has acted as trusty, being plrced
in charge of the chicken yard and
barns.
Blanton, Click, Bennett and
Doble were neighboring farmers in
the Lone Pine district, and the first
named was generally regarded as
extremely quarrelsome. He be-
came engaged in dispute with
Doble over a road, and made an at
tack on the latter with knife. In
dicted for this offense, trial had
been set for Dec. II, 1888, at 10
o'clock, and the three other men
summoned as witnesses for the
state. At Blanton's trial for MUIR
der it developed that he had ex-
pressed his intention Of killing the
three men if they testified against
him. The murder of Click occurred
but half an hour before the conven-
ing of court, and almost in the door
way of the court room, which was
then located in a wooden building
standing about where the Kitchen
restaurant now stands. After Click
was shot he ran across the street
and fell in Frank Bros. farm i'm
plement store. The bullet lodged
in the left lobe OF the heart. Blan-
ton shot but once at Click, and then
turned his weapon on Bennett and
fired, the bullet striking the collar
of his heavy overcoat, and lodging
next his shirt. Bennett sprang at
Blanton, and managed to seize him
from behind. While the men were
struggling Blanton fired three shots
at Doble, one of them grazing bis
wrist.-Gazette.

QUEENS BIRTHDAY BALL.
CLOSES THE CELEBRATION OF
THE DAY.
Was Attended by the President and
Members of the Cabinet-Was a
Handsomely Arranged Affair.

The ball in the evening was the
browning feature of the public cele-
bration of Queen Nctoria's birthday.
The affair was handsomely arranged
and happily carried out. The COM
mittees having it in charge are to be
congratulated. The entire British
colony may well be proud of it,
The affair was honored by the pres
ence of President and Mrs Dole, mem
bers of the Cabinet and their wives,
and members of the diplomatic corps
and other representatives of foreign
governments. Commissioner Kenny
as the representative of Her Majesty,
was the host of the evening. On his
departure, according to custom the
orchestra played God Save the
| Queen"
The program of dances was fit
ting one and apparently a pleasing
one. One of the interpolated features
was "A Highland Fling, which took so
well that a repetition was demanded.
Independence Hall. where the ball
was given, was made. under the skill
! full hands of the decorating commit
tee, an admirable ball room. Color
was used most effectively. The bar

was completely hidden beneath a Law
ish abundance of British. Hawaiian
and American flags, and parti-coloved
bunting. Palms and other tropical TO-
| liage and flowers added agreeable
touches to the decorations.
At the head of the ball room was a
life size portrait of the Queen in col
ors by Davey. At the opposite end
| of the hall was an electric light de
vice representing the crown and the
letters "N. r." The floor was per-
lection for dancing.
The light effects were admirable.
In addition to the incandescent lights
| there were two long rows of acetylene
gas chandeliers. Their pure white
light brought out the colors of the
decorations strikingly, and gave a
| brilliant ball room effect to the hall.
The arrangement of these lights was
made bv NJ. NJ. Kahn and f. La Vio-
lette.
The refreshments arrangements
were in the hands of Thomas Krouse.
In all particulars the ball was a
success.

SIGNALLING.

AS Il result of the semi-consterna-
ton which was created at the time of
Prince Henry of Prussa's recent visit
to England when the German war
ships Deutschland and Gefion sudden
ly lOomed from the fog without hav-
ing previously been signalled, has
aroused the British authorities 10 a
sense of the necessity of taking adj
ditional precautions and they are now
erecting quick firing guns and search
lights. At the entrance of Portsmouth
harbor there will be light powerful
enough to sweep Spithead and guns
will be so placed that ships ente ing
must pass under their muzzles. he
Admiralty has also ordered the ,tsliv.
cry of ten ~ inch and twenty-four 6
inch quick firing guns of new pat
tern, the special features of which
are their breech mechanism and a new
apparatus for working their primers.
The new guns work wholly automlt-
ically and at their firing trials they
gave the greatest satisfaction, the
round taking only six and a falf sec
onds. They have striking power of
1874 foot tons, against 3,241 attain
able by the present guns. The Off
Gals claim these are the best results
obtainable by any naval power.

COURTS MARTIAL,

There were 1jS courts martial i'm the
British navy in 1896 on blue jackets
and marines afoat and 22S courts mar
tial on marines ashore, making to-
tai of 3S6 courts martial for 491 Of
lenses. The strength was 1890. maxi
ing one man tried out of every 200. I'm
the United States navy the mean
strength during 1896 was 1880 and
there were 1l7 courts martial, giving
a ratio of one tried to 50 men. or the
courts martial i'm the American navy
101 were of the seamen class. of
which the mean strength was 10000,
and 46 marines, of which there were
$500. The relative proportion OF tri-
ais of the two branches were one to
ninety-ninc in the seaman class and
one to seventy-four in the marine
corps. The latter service is improv-
ing every year if the diminished num-
Der of courts martial is an indication
to that effect 1t will be observed
that i'm the British navy there were
22S marines at shore stations, the
mean strength not exceeding 5000.
which would make one out of twenty
seven men tried, or just twice the
number i'm the American marine
corps.

4 CHANCE FOR ALL.

Heretofore American girls have
found it a comparatively simple mat
ter to buy titles, but the American
men have been compelled to remain
plain, unadorned citizens, without any
handles to their names. All this is
to be changed if a bill which the 1tal-
ian government proposes to submit
to Parliament becomes law. Accord
ing to the provisions of this any one
desiring to become a prince may Sc
cure that title by planking down the
sum of $4,000. Five thousand dollars
will purchase the title of marquis,
$4,000 for the title of count, while IL
ties of baron will be sold in job lots
at 81 900 each.

at Sea Girt will be used.
