THE SUNDAY LAW.
Its ViolatOrs Subject to Fine and I'm.
Prisonment.

There are more persons in our city
violating the State law against common
labor on Sunday than we have ever
known, and the Mayor has taken the
right step in seeing to its enforcement.
The following is the section of the
law bearing upon the subject. 1t is
not an effete, out of date law, but one that
was passed only a little over year ago:
Sec. 1888. Whoever, being over IA
years of age, engages in common labor
on the first day Of the week, commonly
called Sunday; and whoever, being over
Ia years of age, shall open or cause to
be opened any building or place for
the transaction of business, on the first
day of the week, commonly called Sun
| day, or who shall require any person
| in his employ or under his control to
engage in common labor on Sunday,
shall, on complaint made within ten
days thereafter, and upon conviction,
be fined, for the first offense, twenty
| five dollars, and for each subsequent
offense such person shall be fined not
less than fifty dollars, nor more than
one hundred dollars, and imprisoned
not less than five days nor more than
thirty days. But this sentence does
not apply to or embrace works of ne
cessity or of charity, and does not ex-
tend to persons who conscientiously OBJ,
serve the seventh day of the week as
the Sabbath, and who do in fact alb
stain, on'that day, from the doing of the
things herein prohibited on Sunday
nor shall it be so construed as to pre-
vent families emigrating, from travel
ing, or watermen from landing theil
passengers, or keepers of toll bridges
toll gates or ferries, from attending
the same on Sunday
| 1t will be observed that this law doe:
not except meat shops, groceries, cigal
stores, barber shops, clothing stores
or any other kind of stores, shops OF
factories. The law, like all others
should be enforced without partiality
The necessity of a day of rest, for al
who work six days, is recognized, ant
the right of employees and all others t.
this day of rest is protected by the law
and the greed of men who would tram
pie the law under foot should not b,
respected. 1t is the law of the major
ity. And all should be treated alike.

If we could trace Dyspepsia to its source. it
would lead back to our kitchens. In fact, the
secret OF good health is good cooking, If well
cooked, foods are partially digested, If poorly
cooked, they are less digestible than in their
raw state. II you are victim Of faulty cook
ing. that is, If you suffer from Dyspepsia, the
rational cure must be looked for in an artif-
cially digested food, and a food which will at
the same time aid the digestion of other foods.
Such a preparation virtually rests the tired
digestive organs, thereby restoring them to
their natural strength.
The Digestive Cordial, as prepared by the
Shakers of Mount Lebanon, is just sch a
preparation, and a single 10 ceut bottle will
convince you of its value. If your druggist
doesn't keep it, he will be glad to get it
through his whole house.

Never say to your friends that you are as

Do not say, MY face is full of pimples.'
You are quite likely to be told by some one,
There's no need no need of that, for Hoods

1t is improper and unnecessary to say. "My

THE BEST
The Last Session Of the Teachers
Institute the Best Ever Held
In the County.

In the County.
The Teachers Institute Of this year
was the largest and was evidently the
most satisfactory ever held in the
county. We close our report OF 1t, in
this issue. We thank our reporter and
all concerned for all favors received,
and hope all feel that they were abun-
dainty repaid for their attendance.
The attendance was considerably
larger than ever before, reaching an
even 200. The hall was well filed at
all sessions, showing continual inter
est.
The lecturers, Prof. Dyer and Prof.
Gurney, gave excellent satisfaction and
the address of "the boss teacher Of the
State" School Commissioner Bone
brake, was greatly appreciated.
This was Prof. Gurney's first Insti
tute in Ohio, and he expressed higf
appreciation Of the character OF the
young men and women in attendance
Both Prof. Gurney and Commissioner
Bonebrake complimented the county OF
Educational Hall, saying it was the bes
they had seen.
A movement that was started q yea
ago, to place a piano in the Hall, tina
should belong to the teachers of tn
county, was pushed by the Executiv
Committee, and before the close of tn
Institute, last week, fine toned, hand
some piano was purchased and place.
in the hall.
Much of the success of the Institut
this year, was due to the industry an
zeal Of the Executive Committee, A.
Shafer, M. r. Ballinger and Ely q
Miller. The large attendance was du
in great measure to the fact that the
sent program" to every teacher i
the county, showing them what the
could expect, and making them fee
that they were each, individually re
membered, and expected to be present
To their Industrious efforts was du
also the success of the movement to &c
q piano. They have, therefore, th
satisfaction of knowing that their wor
met with great measure of success.
The teachers should now take goo
rest for two weeks, to prepare for th
fall and winter campaign.

on the marvellous to be accepted with

INDIANS ON THE WARPATH.
twenty-five Cowboys Chasing Swift
Bears Gang.

Chicago. July ia special from
Chadron, Neb., says: A courier from the
Cheyenne River Bad Lands, 40 miles
north in South Dakota, brings the story
of depredations committed by Swift
Bears band, who are racing back to
the reservation to escape arrest by the
civil authorities. According to his story,
a cowboy came across the band while
rounding up cattle Swift Bear ordered
him to give up his horse, which he re-
fused to do. A rifle ball pierced his leg,
killing his horse. After taking several
head of cattle he was left by the band
and wandered until midnight before
reaching camp.
Cowboys Immediately started on the
trail of the fleeing band, overtaking
them about 20 miles from camp. The
Indians We're well protected in the
rocks. The cowboys horses, left in the
valley below, stampeded and returned
to the range. Leaving a posse of six
men with the Indians, who outnumber-
ed them five to one Mike Riley, the
courier was detailed to escape through
the Indian line and go for help. Twenty
five cowboys, heavily armed, at once
started for the scene of the war from
the roundup camp. taking with them
extra horses.
Omaha, Neb., July 19.-The Bee tele-
graphed Colonel Clapp, agent at Pine
Ridge, inquiring as to the truth or
falsity of the battle between Indians
and cowboys on the Cheyenne river
and received the following answer:
None whatever, as far as known.

ACROSS THE BOULDER.
A Contract Let for Two New steel
Bridges to Minneapolis Men

Special Dispatch &c the Standard.
Boulder, July 19.-The board OF county
commissioners to-day let the contract for
two new steel bridges across the Boulder
river to take the place of those washed
out in the spring floods, one of loO-foot
span Just south of town, the other TWO
miles down the river at Hundley's cross
ing. with 76-foot span. Six bids were re-
ceived for the work, as follows: The Gil
lette-Herzog company of Minneapolis,
So, ATS: o. f. Peppard. Missoula, $3.50: Per-
ham Bros, Butte, s710o; Missouri Valley
Bridge company, Kansas City. $3.50;
King Bridge company, Cleveland. $6,999:
Frank Danna, San Francisco, S6,125. The
contract was awarded to the Gillette-Her-
cog company, the bridges to be completed
by Nov. !.
It is noticed in the bids that the cost of
iron bridges has largely increased within
the past year on account of the advanced
prices of structural iron, and 1t Is be-
leved that on this contract the price
would have been 81 900 less a year ago.
The local board of the state school for
the deaf and blind has also just let
contract for a steam heating plant at the
institution, which will be used in con-
junction with the hot air plant which
was installed when the building was con-
structed and which was demonstrated last
winter to be defective and inadequate for
heating the building. There were four
bidders for the work, ranging in price
from $1,750 to s.. 800. The contract was let
to Preuitt & Co. of Helena at the lower
figure above mentioned.
