nally injured but time went by and he
did not manifest any marked symptoms
of such injuries and his broken limb
healed so nicely that he was regarded
as entirely out of danger. when about
a week ago lung trouble developed and
he took a decided change for the worse.
Two days ago he was taken with chills

for his lung trouble stated that an alb
cess formed on the lungs soon after
the lung trouble manifested itself, and
that this was the cause of death.
Coroner Julien inquired into the cir
cumstances of the case and concluded
an official investigation should be made

the charges .and refuse to name the
| guilty parties, the plank must be elm
mated from the republican platform as
unsound.
The next plank condemns the "im-
provident expenditure of large reve-
nues," and demands better care of
streets and alleys, and an Improvement
of sanitary conditions. THAT indeed, is
strange plank to appear in a republic
can platform. The democrats took con-
troll Of this city two years ago, when it
was submerged in mud. In place of the
mud the people have now paved streets
in the business center and the streets
are cleaned. In summer the streets are
sprinkled. When Harrington became
mayor the streets south of Mercury
street were merely holes in the ground
Now the holes have been filed in,
streets opened up and graded. and in
| Vulnerable residences have been erected
In that section. AS for the sanitary
conditions, alleys and yards were clean
ed on Mayor Harrington assuming Of
| flee, which had not been cleaned before
in the history Of the city. Large reve-
nues have indeed been expended under
Mayor Harrington's administration, but
there is something to show for it. The
people have had the worth of their
money. One third of the entire sewer
system of Butte has been constructed
under Harrington.
In its next plank the republican party
demands I" retrenchment and reform
That must mean that Butte is to be-
come a "Clark-made' town-that the
frame shack era in Butte's history must
return. 1t must mean that the streets
shall be again paved with mud, that
the sewers shall be stopped up, that the
filth shall accumulate in the streets and
alleys that the city shall not have ade-
quate police and fire protection There
is doubtless room for improvement in
the administration of municipal affairs,
but much progress has been made and
Mayor Harrington's administration has
been far superior to preceding ones. 1t
is not believed that the property owners
of Butte want to see the city retrograde
The platform condemns any effort to
convert "the machinery of the city gov
eminent into vehicle for the financial
or political ambitions Of any man or
set of men," OF course Who is trying
to do that? The platform also approves
the conduct Of the Spanish American
war, and commends the valor of the
Montana boys at Manila, but does not
venture to condemn the beef, or in fact
to touch on any other national issues.
1t is noticeable that in Great Falls,
Livingston and the other cities of Mon
tana the republican conventions have
approved the Mckinley administration
and the republican financial policy
In Butte the party has failed to do so,
except in a roundabout way
and consequently many republicans,
disguised with the cowardice of their
local leaders, will, as a matter of re-
Duke to the party, for permitting itself
to be run by Clark, vote the democratic
ticket, which is confessedly a far better
ticket.

New York, April 1S.-A dispatch 10
the Herald from Para says: The
United States warship Wilmington has
received a splendid reception from the
government authorities here. The de-
parture for Inquitos, rs alleged. with
out license, has caused considerable
excitement among the people.
Under the orders given by the navy
department the gunboGt Wilmington
is making n cruise up the Amazon
river for the purpose Of displaying the
American flag.
The Wilmington left Para, on March
10, for ports along the Amazon river,
the last point from which Commander
Todd, commanding, reported being
Manos, which he reached on March %.
So far as can be learned nothing has
since been heard from Commander
Todd, but the officials are confident
that he observed the proprieties in the
matter of his arrival and departure
from ports.

Statistics prove that more people are
brought to the grave by diseases of the
kidneys and bladder than by any other
disease.
For many years medical science has
been trying to discover some remedy
that would positively overcome these
dangerous troubles.
But not until recently was the discov-
cry made. Doctor KiIner, the eminent
physician and scientist. after years of
study and research, and after test on
test that never varied in the grand re-
suit, announcedthe discovery of Swamp
Root, which has proven Itself a most
wonderful euro for all diseases of tbs
kidneys and bladder.
While S~wamp-RoOt has proven such a
remarkable success in kidney and
bladder diseases, it has also proved
equally invaluable in the cure Of blood
diseases, rheumatism, liver and stomach
troubles and in the regulation and cure
OF all uric acid troubles.
Swamp-Root has been tested in so
many ways. il hospital work, in private
practice, among the helpless too poor to
purchase relief, and has proved so sue
eessful in every case, hat a special ar
rangement has been made by which all
readers of this paper, who have not al

sent absolutely free by mail. Also a
book telling more about Swamp-RCot

IOHN'S GOOD IDEA.
He Thought Angel Food Should

Brand On 1t.

\ woman whose husband was physician
for the California state prison recently had
in her kitchen one OF the cCnvicts from the
prison, a Chinaman, serving a short sem
tence for THEFT. but whose subsequent good
behavior had made for him many friends
among the government officials. John was
a good cook and more than ~cleanly, so the
doctors wife hailed him with delight and
mourned greatly when the days were busy
and John was not allowed beyond the pris-
on walls. John, when in the world, had
heard 4 good deal about the Sunday
school" life of his fellow celestials and
since his confinement had thought much on
the subject.
The doctor was very proud Of Johns
cooking and one day invited a few friends
in for dinner. John was in his element
and prepared an elaborate meal. Among
the many delicacies for dessert ordered by
the doctors wife was an angel cake. Johns
chief culinary success. Great was the con-
sterration and surprise of the hostess and
the amusement of the guests when John
bobbed into the room carrying a huge,
snowy uncut angel cake, bearing across
che top in huge red letters the word "Heav.

C OR STOCKS?
An Investment That Pays Better
Than Dab5IinE In Stocks
OR Tips.

A circular sent out by a firm of tipsters
says: 1t is now over three years since we
first addressed you about our stock opera
tions. During that time had you invested
500 at the beginning and compounded your
profits, your 500 would now be nearly
Sl,Ii5. Is there any business that will pay
you better than $i,775 profits on 800 CAPT
tai in three years. \ copy OF the circular
fell into the hands Of a man who made this
reJoinder:
The answer is, yes-ducks, tame, pud-
die, muscovy, Pekln, or any other breed.
\ little gil had 10 cents with which she
bought a sitting OF duck eggs. She Dor
rowed 4 broodIng chicken hen from her
mother, and all the eggs were Matched out.
Her profits for the first six months were So,
and she kept three hens and a drake for
the next SIX months operations. 1t is fair
topresume that her profits will be at least 50
for each SIX months; one year SIC; three
years, S4S. Divide S4S by her Is cents and
the quotIent will be 320-that is, each Of
her ID cents will produce 800 cents; on 81
or 100 cents the profit viii be 1000 cents,

column. There was no special demon
stration until Governors island wal
passed, when a national salute was
fired. About this point the coast sur
Iey steamer Pathfinder, with Assist
ant Secretary of the Navy Allen on
board, joined the procession, follow
ing lust in the wake of the Raleigh.
From the time the Raleigh left the
battery until she reached Grants tomb
her whistle and fog siren were blowing
almost constantly in response to the
salutes from vessels lying at their
docks or moving up and down the riv-
CT. The ferryboats were crowded with
people, cheering and waving handker-
chiefs, and several of the boats ran
alongside the Raleigh for a short dis
tance.
Capt. COghlan was on the bridge
nearly ali the way up the river with
the executive and navigating officers.
All were bundled up in rain coats and
received the full force of the storm in
their faces. The captain was obliged 20
bare his head TO the rain n great part
OF the time in waving his cap in re-
sFonse to the salutes and cheers OF
passing vessels.
The officers paid little attention to
the storm, and waved their caps con-
stsntly. not appearing to mind the
soaking which their dress uniforms
and their bodies as well received. As
for the sailors, they never thought OF
shelter at all. Officers and men alike
expressed the greatest surprise at the
demonstration, and wondered what
they had done 10 warrant all the en-
thusiasm which was being displayed.
Many of them were heard to make re-
marks to the effect that the battle of
Manila bay was fought so long ago
that they had almost forgotten it. but
that it seemed the American people
remembered it still.
