campment.
The tract is three miles square, con-
tatins an abundance of fresh water. n
considerable lake, a hill $50 feet in
height, and many other sanitary advan-
tages, including salt water bathing. The
necessary orders to equip this as
camping ground will go forward imme-
diately, and every advantage will be
taken of the experience gained in the
formation of the great camps at Chicka-
mauga and Camp Alger to make the
conditions as comfortable as possible
for the battle-scarred veterans in SHAFT

is left to General Shafter. the only linn
itation placed upon him being that he
shall not delay the homeward sailing of
his troops beyond the moment when
1t shall be safe for them to leave Santi-
ago, having regard to the fever condi-
tions. Meanwhile details are being
made of troops to supply the force that

Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars for the
Capture of william Pepo.
'ecial Dispatch to the Standard.

Speclal Dispatch to the Standard.
Helena, july Ex-Governor smith to-day
offered a reward for the apprehension of
the man who is supposed to have COM
mitted murder In Teton county about
June j last. The offer of the governor
reads as follows:
Whereas, 1t has come to my knowledge
that man whose name and Identity is
to the authorities unknown was most
foully murdered on or about the first day
OF June. lSS, at the ranch of l.. r. Ruchot
about IL miles north of the town of Cho-
teau, Teton county, Montana. and that
the guilty person or persons have not yet
been apprehended.
Now, therefore. l. Robert u. Smith
by virtue of the authority in me vested
by the laws and constitution Of the state
of Montana, do hereby offer a reward of
two hundred and fifty dollars $3.50 for
the arrest and conviction of the person or
persons guilty Of the murder of said un-
known man."
1t appears that the man who was killed
and whose name is not known, was found
in cabin on the hay ranch of F.. Truchot
about IL miles from Choteau. Robert Da-
Wis went To the cabin to procure "A mower
sickle. He found instead the dead and de-
composed body of the deceased A memo-
randum book marked ''William Pepo"
found about the clothing of the body led
TO the belief that that was the name of
the deceased Later investigation showed,
however. that the memorandum which
contained the name of William Pepo gavo
the name of the man whom the suthori-
ties think guilty of the crime.
The sheriff's office of Teton county fur
nishes the following description OF Pepo:
Fair, light blue or gray eyes. age about
40 years powerfully built. height about
feet inches. bald, sharp features. not
bad looking; had beard and mustache
when last seen. lie is "A German by BIRTH
speaking English huently. He Is well edu-
Gated. Has done journalistic work and
writes shorthand.
The following letter from Deputy Sher-
in Penrod called forth the offer OF reward
from the governor:
81 hope that the printed enclosures con-
tain sufficient evidence to warrant you in
taking speedy action. The victim being a
small man, II is evident that he was not
William Pepo, whose memorandum book
was found In the pocket of large over
coat In the cabin. All evidence points to
the conclusion that Pepo is the guilty
party. | therefore petition you as gov
ernor of the state of Montana to offer a
reward sufficiently large to secure the
cooperation of the secret detective SER
vice i'm the apprehension of said William
Pepo."

CULVER A VICTIM.
Not His Fault the Illinois Regiment Was
Ordered Back.

Washington, July 2s.-It is reported
from Chickamauga that because the
5th Illinois regiment was turned back
from the Porto Rican expedition, many
men had deserted. the morale of the
regiment had been destroyed and the
failure to secure active service had
been charged up TO the secret efforts
of Colonel Culver to keep IL from going
to the front IL Is said at the war de-
partment that as a matter of fact. tbs
colonel has been the victim of circum-
stances over which he had no control.
When the 5th Illinois had been ordered
to Porto Rico a delegation of Indiana
people awaited on the president and
presented the fact that although there
were three Indiana regiments fully
equipped and ready for service. nons
had been ordered to the front. 1t hap
pened that of three Illinois regiments
available two had been sent forward
on the advance of the 5th. so that thu
department felt obliged to avoid a
charge OF discrimination. TO substitute
one OF the Indiana regiments for this
Illinois regiment. With this order
Colonel Culver had absolutely nothing
TO do and did not even know that il
was in contemplation.

VIII Probably BE Given tn spain friday

Washington, July 2s.-Secretary os
State Day was closeted with the presi-
dent for less than a half hour this
afternoon over the response to Spain's
note suing FOR peace. When he left the
white house, Mr.. Day announced that
the reply would be given to Spain FRI
day or Saturday. Meantime its tenor.
so far as the administration is able to
do, is to be carefully guarded from the
people.
The president up to that time had
had no consultations with other MEM
bers of the cabinet with regard to the
communication to be presented to
Spain. 1t has been noticeable that
since the conference with members Of
the cabinet following Ambassador
Cambon's presentation of Spain's pre-
liminary note. there have been few i'm
portant conferences at the white house.
Several members of the cabinet mean
time have called individually, but none
to indicate that the formal response OF
the administration already is clearly
outlined and is only awaiting the final
consensus Of opinion at to-morrow's
cabinet session.
Many persons who called on the pres
ident to-day on political matters made
inquiries on the peace situation, but
gathered little important information
Several. however. who have talked with
the president and Secretary Day, say
the administration Is prepared to meet
any steps the Spanish government may
take. "Our terms win be such as to
meet the approval OF the entire world"
one of the cabinet is quoted as say
ing, but further than that he would

HIS MEAL CAME HIGH
Sixty Days to Work Out the Price Of a
Breakfast

If William Benson, colored, regards time
as valuable, he enjoyed a very expensive
meal yesterday at the Queen restaurant on
North Main street That meal, while not
characterized by anything epicurean, cost
him sixty days In the chain gang.
Benson entered the restaurant and called
for half dozen raw oysters, and after de-
vouring them demanded some veal outlets,
Dreaded, and bottle Of zinfandel. After
he had finished his repast, he walked out
onto the sidewalk. The walter followed,
and In his politest manner inquired II Ben
son had not forgotten something. Benson
replied that he thought he had licked the
platter clean, to which the waiter suggested
respectfully that he had neglected to pay
Tor the meal. Benson became incensed at
such presumption on the part of the man,
and replied that he would see him In a
warm place before he would liquidate.
The waiter was Joined by reinforcements
and Benson was led back into the restau-
rant where the pay was again demanded

knife and threatened to cut and slash any
body who dared to approach him. He re-
rretted the absence of his "razzer," he
explained, but. still he thought he could
give a good account of himself with the

and struggled with the negro. while the
other bravely ran away from the scene of

The MicrObe q of Baldnes,

No medical subject has caused more dis
cussion than the statement by a famous
physician that he has discovered the mi
crobe which causes badness. There are
other scientists who claim that there is M
such things as a microbe of this kind. The
most that can be said of 1t is that time alone
must settle the question. 1t was long ago
settled that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
a standard remedy for the common all
ments Of mankind. Years ago 1t passed
the experimental stage. 1t is a true stimu-
liant. a true cure for dyspepsia and indiges-
ton, true medicine for the weak and
nervous, true strengthener and appetizer.
The benefits of these Bitters are lasting a nd
permanent. People who take them live
longer, feel happier sleep sounder and
look better than those who don't. Nearly
every disease that afflicts the human fam
ily can be overcome with Hostetters Stom-
ach Bitters.
