We have a:-room, hard finished house, with
some modern improvements, close in, for $3.50;
terms 800 cash, balance in monthly payments
with 10 per cent on deferred payments, or will
sell a lot in same block for 500 and duplicate
the above described house for $3.50. We have
many lots in different parts of the city which We
want to make productive by building homes for
parties who can make "a cash payment of SiOO to
$500 and have one year to five years in which to
pay the balance. Choice lots in the George Cob
ban addition at $3.50 are sure to double in value
within one year. The artesian well is now 275
feet in depth and is liable TO flow any day. These
lots ~ $3.50 are the best and safest speculation
in Butte flowing water means $500 a lot.

great power in the hands Of unscrupu-

against the more prosperous for the
purpose Of extorting money. These
grievances became so general that

Joined by deserters from the army,
vagabonds and escaped criminals. In
the course Of their conflicts with the
forces Of the government, which was
instructed from Madrid to show no
mercy, q spirit of atrocious inhumanity
was developed on both sides, and saw
age destruction Of life ensued. The
killing Of prisoners captured or sur

and dsemboweling were practiced by
both, without any regard to the usages
Of civilized warfare The Spaniards, to
extort confessions. resorted to the
thumbscrew and revived the tortures OF
the Inquisition. Their proceedings
were claimed to be justified by the plea

point so malignant and brutal. And
its fatal impolicy is shown. by the fact
that the insurrection has not been sup

He Gave Both His Heart and In

Wesley, during his life, gave to the
poor 100000, although always on

charities of today, and also inaugu-
rated an enterprise for loaning poor
people small sums Of money, whereby
they could be tided over business DIFF
