Story of "A Slave,

To be bound hand and foot for years by
the chains of disease is the worst form of
slavery. George D Williams of Manches-
ter, Mich, tells how such a slave was
made free. He says: My wife has been
so helpless for five years that she could
not turn over in bed alone. After using
two bottles of Electric Bitters she is won
derfully improved and able to do her own
work" This supreme remedy for female
diseases quickly cures nervousness. sleep
1essness. melancholy. headache, backache,
fainting and dizzy spells. This miracle
working medicine is a godsend to weak,

IT TOUCHED HIS HEART
So Hizzoner Myers Reconsidered
His Refusal.
MADE AN ELOQUENT PLEA
He Put Up an Able Defense for His
Client, Fralix, but the Court Bound
the Man Over to the Dis
trict Court.

Missoula. Jan. Notwithstanding
the refusal of ex-Hizzoner Myers to
appear in the FraliX case as stated in
these columns yesterday, the legal gen
tleman surprised his friends and read
ers of the Standard by appearing in
Judge Hayes court this morning pre-
pared to defend the somber hued cul-
prit who is charged with an assault
upon one Lalonde, a barkeeper at the
Office saloon. Hizzoners countenance
was profuse with smiles as he scanned
the great array of auditors who had de-
Clared half holiday in order that they
might be present at the debut of the
gentleman who has just vacated jul
dicial chair Nh Myers was clad in the
conventional black, a beautiful chrys
anthemum adjoining the lapel of his
coat.
He explained his presence in court by
saying though he had declined to de-
fend FraliX. owing to his clients in
ability to pay the requisite fee, he had
reconsidered his action at the earnest
plea of the defendant and friends of the
accused. Hizzoners heart had been
touched. hence his resolve, and it was
with no little degree of hesitation he
finally accepted a fee of 49, hastily col
lected from a symnathetic audience
that did not wish to see FraliX go with
out counsel or have the trial inter-
rupted for the sake of few paltry
dollars.
The examination proceeded without
incident and but for the eloquent APP
peal made by Mr.. Myers for his client,
the case may be classed as one of those
has beens so frequently encountered in
justices courts. The gentleman's eff
forts in that respect, however, were
the subject for considerable comment
of a favorable nature on HiZzoner's
ability as an orator and jurist and the
audience was at loss to understand
why Judge Hayes, at the conclusion of
Mr.. Myers argument. should hold the
defendant to appear before the dis
trict court. 1t would be unfair 10 close
this article without extending proper
credit to County Attorney Denny and
Assisting Prosecuting Attorney Prince.
which constituted the formidable legal
array that was premeditatedly pitted
against HizZoner.

PontoOn bridge of Collins.

When the British forces were marching
on Pckin in 1860. after the capture of
the Taku forts. one of the rivers be-
came so swollen with the heavy rains
that it was rendered impossible. Being
aware that the Chinese generally order
their collins years in advance and keep
them on the premises orders were given
to search all the houses of the village and
collect every coffin. With the aid of a few
empty casks the soldiers constructed a
p0ntoon bridge of collins sufficiently
strong to bear the artillery. and the river
was thus passed in safety.

That's what a Charlotte Woman Done
After Serving as Years.
Mrs. Mary E. Brooks, of Charlotte,
the first woman ever convicted of MUIR
der in Michigan, has married d. II.
Stewart, the complaining witness
whose testimony was largely respon-
sible for her spending sa years in jack
son prison. Simon Brooks, wealthy
resident of the western portion Of
Eaton county, died March Is, 1876,
under mysterious circumstances. His
widow, Mary Brooks, was arrested,
charged with the murder on complaint
of d. H. Stewart, neighbor.. At a
special session of the grand jury to in
vestigate the crime Mr.. Stewart swore
that he purchased a vial of arsenic,
properly labeled poison. Mrs. Brooks,
who was at his home, inquired as to
the contents of the bottle, and he told
her 1t was arsenic. Not having any
he put it away. Mr.. Brooks died soon
afterward, and it was proved that his
death was caused by arsenic poison.
The bottle containing the poison was
missing from Stewards house, and he
reported his loss to the county officials.
After thorough search the empty vial
was found in the Brooks residence.
After three days deliberation the jury
convicted Mrs. Brooks of murder in
the first degree and she was sentenced
to jackson for life, but was pardoned
after she had served 90 years.
