About one month ago my child. which
is Is months old. had an attack of diar-
rhoea accompanied by vomiting. / gave 1t
such remedies as are usually given i'm such
cases. but as nothing CAV relief, we sent
for a physician and it was under his care
for a week. At this time the child had
been sick for about ten days and was
having about twenty-five operations of the
bowels every twelve hours, and We were
convinced that unless it soon obtained re-
lief it would not live. Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was rec
commended, and / decided to try ii. I soon
noticed a change for the better; by its
continued use a complete cure was
brought about and it is now perfectly
healthy.-C. l.. Boggs. Stumptown. Gill

From the New York Evening Post.
The Consolidated Gas of

check. a certain physician WHOSE bills

ened all sorts Of punishment IL they
were not reduced. but. as things will 20
the next collection an extra dollar or
two appeared in the charge. Let us
draw the curtain yer his righteous
wrath. Having recovered. he drew a
check for the full amount and accepted
a receipt. At the Office Of the company
il was noticed that the check was made
payable 10 the order Of the "Consolidat-

directors enjoyed a good laugh at their
expense. Ii went through the bank

Phillips Trying to wheedIe the Republic

Great Falls. Aug. 27.-The work of

Phillips, the foxy politician from Last
Chance, is a true prophet, as if they
were going to be harmoniZed or hypnot-

would have their entire county ticket
appointed for them by the politicians
from up the line "A bit. Uncle Thomas
Hennery found the climate a little too
chilly for him here and left on the after
noon train. Evidently he was hated by
his foes and feared by his friends, which
made a mighty unsocial time of ii for
Hennery. But he has left his valiant
henchman behind, Mr.. Phillips. and that
gentleman is fixing matters up in great
shape.
This afternoon a gentleman spoke to
him about the approaching resignation
of the postmastership by ID. j. TalIant
and asked some questions about the
matter. Said Mr.. Phillips: We don't
intend to make any appointment in this
matter until there is harmony in the
republican party of Cascade county. if
we have to let the office stand empty
all winter. None of the original appli-
Cants deserve the office after the man.

of them are likely to get it unless they
mend their ways mighty quick and
bring along some of their friends at the
same time. That particular piece of pie
we have made up our minds shall not
be dished out until the republicans have
met together in this county and settled
their differences and said definitely
whom they wish to have the job. Then,
and not until then, shall We consider
the matter of appointing Mr.. Tallant's
successor"

the power he had been questioning,

local republicans are going to do about

A Written Statement Made by Mrs. Orr
 Her Requests.

Clarendon, Ark, Aug. 11.-This little city has assumed it's usually quiet con- dition The bodies of the four negroes, victims of Tuesday nights mob, will be buried across the river. The body of Mrs. John T. Orr, who killed herself in jail, has been removed to her residence for preparation for burial. Her little three-year-o baby is with friend of the family. $. W. Boardman has given out written statement prepared by Mrs. Orr on Monday just before she took the fatal dose. It reads:
 T want my baby, Neva, to stay with MT. Faifer, with his children, while I live, then MT. Graham to have full control of her until my father comes for her, which I want him to do. I want my father to have my baby and to raise her. I want my baby, Neva, to have all my personal effects. My body is to be shipped to my father and be buried where he resides. want to say to Steve Boardman, Wallace Gra- ham, MT. Moorehead and Mir. Faifer that for the kind manner in which they have treated me I hope that God will bless them. hope God will forgive Rachel (Niss Morris) for the way she has treated me. I want all of my prop erty and home to go to my baby Neva, and I hope that his favorite lodge, Knights of Pythias, will see that this, my last will, is carried out. I want papa to help Wallace all he can. This statement completed at 6:30 p. m. Mon- day, August 8, 1S9S."
 Mir. Boardman would not give out this paper until Mrs. Orr was dead He says her fathers name is W. c. Bar ker, that he resides at Mansion, Wis. and that at present he is very low and in destitute circumstances. He is fifty two years old.

CUBA AND PORTO RICO.
The Det atls for Their Evacuation Re-
 ceiving Earnest Attention.

Washington, Aug. 1.-The settlement of the details of the evacuation of Cuba and Porto Rico is already receiving the earnest attention of the officials. Some provision is to be made for the treat ment of the Spanish prisoners and for the disposition of the small arms and the artillery and war stores. There is also some naval property of value re- maining in Cuban and Porto Rican ports, and it is a question whether or not this still is demanded by us or will be allowed to remain in Spanish possess sion. The conclusion has been reached by Secretary Alger to refer these mat ters to a military commission and Ad- jutant General Corbin Is now looking up precedents for the guidance of such a commission. Possibly this commis- sion would meet the question raised by the naval war board as to the propriety of holding Morro Castle as pledge un- til the formal signature of treaty of peace.

SOLDIERS GOT DRUNK.
Missed the Yale But Were Finally Taken Ont hY n Tusg.


 New York Aug. 11.-When the Yale started to-day for Santiago de Cuba many of the Eighth Illinois colored vol unteers were not aboard of her It is said that during the five hours the reg iment spent at the Communipaw depot this morning many of the men got an oyer-sufficiency of liquor. When they reached the pier the desire for more li- quor led to the running of the guard at the dock entrance, and in conse- quence many men were left behind. Besides the rank and file, captains and lieutenants struggled down to the pier long after the Yale had passed the bat tery All that appeared were sent on tug after the \cruiser. It is believed that some of the soldiers are still in the city. Six of the men were found wound ed as the Yale was leaving. One was hurt by falling from the train. The Yale cleared Sandy Hook bar at D. m., when she was signalled from Sandy Hook to wait for orders. She stopped and the tug America brought to her the soldiers who had been left behind. When these men had been put aboard the Yale proceeded.

Grand Circuit Races.

Fort Wayne, Ind, Aug 11.--To- day s grand circuit races were devoid of sen- sational performances, though good time was made in the three events. The first heat in the 2:05 class was paced in the rain. Frank Bogash took three heats and Ananias took one Bumps, the favorite in the betting, taking third money. In two heats Bumps took the lead and held it until the three-quarters was reached, when Bogash moved up and won in both heats on the home stretch. Bogash failed to equal his rec- ord. The 2:14 pace was won by the fa- vorite, Agretta, pushed close by Harry Omar and Anna Lee. Tommy Britton, the favorite in the 2:10 class, won in straight heats, pushed close by Pilot Row.
