Story ola Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George d. Williams,
of Manchester, Mich, tells how such a
slave q 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 Elec-
trio Bitters, she is wonderfully i'm
proved and able to do her own work.
This supreme remedy for female dis.
eases quickly cures nervousness, Sleep
lessness. melancholy, headache, back
ache. fainting and dizzy spells. This
miracle working medicine is a godsend
to weak, slckly, rundown people.
Every bottle guaranteed. Only SO
cents. Sold by Emil Hargens, Drug
'gist.

A Rsmarksbl. strike.

Carr & Son, living three miles south
west Of Custer, Saturday struck the
richest vein Of gold ore ever found in
Custer county and very probably the
richest ever found In the Black Hills.
The Journal's informant says they
have eighteen inches of ore that will
average not less than $4,000 per ton,
free. In addition to the free.gold there
are considerable quantities Of sylvan
lite. The vein is on q farm owned by
Mr.. Carr and is within 200 yards of his
house and 100 feet from the public
highway. A small gulch which heads
near the discovery vas extremely rich
in placer gold, which was supposed to
come from a vein near by.-Rapid City

The New Railway.

The improvements that have been
made during the past few years in it's
track, road-bed, bridges, trestles, tun-
nels, ETC., have virtually made a new
road of the NORTHERN PACIFIC. The
road bed has been widened, trestles
filed in, new and heavier steel
rails laid, grades cut down, wooden
bridges replaced by steel ones, curves
taken out, tunnels lined with ;brick
and concrete, and improvements made
wherever possible. Hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars were spent in this way
during 1898 besides large sums in pre-
vious years.
New and mammoth locomotives cap
able of drawing the heavy trans.conti-
mental passenger trains at seventy-fve
miles per hour, when necessary, have
been bought. Progress and advance
ment have been and are the order of
the day. Such a road, SOLID, SMOOTH
SAFE, it is a pleasure to ride over, espe-
cially as it runs through the finest
scenery of the Northwestern Empire
and touches all the greater cities found
there. Pullman's best cars, both Tour
list and First-Class Sleeping Cars, and
a royal Dining Car are a part of the
through trains from ST. Paul and Min
neapolis to Tacoma, Seattle and Port

A FEAT IN GLASS BLOWING.
An Unpretentious Russian Peasant
Shows Experts n Trick In Their
own Trade

Emperor Nicholas wished to illumi-
nate the Alexander column in grand
style. The style of the round lamps to
be used for the purpose was indicated,
and the glasses ordered at the manufac-
tory, where the workmen eXerted them
selves in vain, and almost blew the
breath out of their bodies in the en-
deavor to obtain the desired size.
The commission must be executed
that was self-evident; but how?
A great premium was offered to the
one who could solve the problem. Again
the human bellows toiled, and pulled.
Their object seemed unattainable;
when at last long-bearded Russian
stepped forward and declared that he
couj. do 1.-THE had strong lungs, he
would only rinse his mouth first with
a little water to refresh them.
He applied his mouth to the pipe,
and pulled to such purpose that the
vitreous ball swelled and pulled nearly
to the required dimensions, up to them,
beyond them.

you do it ALP"
'The matter is simple enough" an
swered the long beard, but first, where

And when he had clutched the prom
ised bounty, he explained.
He had retained some of the water in
his mouth, which had passed thence
into the glowing ball, and then becom-
ing steam had rendered him this good
service.

EVADING GAME LAW
Illegal Killing of Game Birds Is
Quite Common.
Protective Agencies Are Circunivent-
ed by Ingenious Schemes of Hunt
ers-Game Shipped as
Corpscs.

Four-fifths OF the game sold in this
city is stolen. The sportsmen of Chi
cago, joining hands with the bird-pro-
tective agencies, are engaged just now
in an effort, which they consider laud-
able, to induce Illinois TO turn aside
from the evil of her ways and to keep
her eye on the eighth commandment.
No game birds except ducks and snipe
that are killed in Illinois may be sold
in the state. This is to prevent the ex-
termination OF prairie chickens, quail
and ruled grouse. The result of this
is that Chicago and the state as well
have to look beyond the borders for the
table game supply. Now it happens
that nearly all the states and terri
tories have laws which forbid the ex-
portation of game from their limits.
Chicago gets most of its birds and veni-
son from these states and therein its
inhabitants, most of them unwittingly
perhaps, are compromising, as it were,
Il feathered and turred felony.
The Chicago market is too strong a
temptation for the gunners and fish
ermen of -nonexport states" to with
stand. Good prices prevail here and
the hunters will get their game through
II the shipping costs greater cunning
than the shooting. Game wardens and
deputies cannot be in all places at once
and so they direct their energies al
points where game shipping has been
most frequent and most fragrant. AT
many of the smaller unmatched places
in Minnesota or Wisconsin week after
week there appears or the railroad sta
ton platform boxes marked for Chi
cago shipment and bearing the word

ten turned out to be quail, ruffed grouse
or woodcock when the package is
opened in the Chicago commission
house. In places where the game war.
dens are alert all sorts of subterfuges
are tried to get the game through TO the
Illinois consumer. Many a crate Of
cabbages has had game heart. Many
n barrel of apples has had a core OF
grouse. Not long ago pine box Of the
regulation eoffin-inclosing size and

delivered to a commission house in Chi
cago. 1t was from a small town in
Minnesota and came through on a pas
senger ticket, as is usual when body
is shipped. 1t was treated with respect

doubt that the person to whom the box
was addressed was an undertaken. AT

SHINES HIS SHOES SOLES.
The Peculiar Notion of Bootblack's
Customer and the Theory
Of II.

There goes a man that got his mon
ley's worth" exclaimed the tar-faced
bootblack as he bit his nickel before
putting it in his pocket, according to
the Kansas City Star. You needn't
tell me that man amt vain, either,
cause I'll have 10 pass it back to you.
Funny thing about him!"
The bootblack folded up his rags and
seated himself on his stand. The man
he spoke of was enc of those individuals
with iron-gray hair and black, we'll
brushed clothing-an eccentric-appear-
ing man, and eccentric, indeed, if the
bootblack's story is true.
That man gets his shoes shined on
the bottom" said young ebony, sadly.
"What do you think of that? He amt
satisfied to see hisself in the tops of
his shoes, but he wants the bottoms the
same way. Course, we can do it all
right, specially under the insteps, but
it goes kind O. funny"
What do you suppose he does it
for?" asked man on the next box.
"'Cause he's proud" came the an
swer, and cause he's lazy and don't
do nothing but sit around all day with
his feet in a window. He's boarder in
hotel, and he amt got no business
that can tell. All the time he's sitting
in a chair with his feet on a window sill,
and of course everybody that goes by
sees his feet. l s'pose it's just a habit,
sitting with his feet up, and in order
to be on the square he has just the bot
toms shined SOS the people that sees
the shoes instead of his collar will know
he's neat.
"Any how" he added, after Il pause,
~ guess we can't kick on little extra
work on him. He has his shoes shined
twice and three times a day, when they
don't need it only on the bottom, SO ]
guess we get even"

Some of the Audubon society mem
bers keep a sharp outlook along the

song birds are offered for sale One of
the society's directors was walking
through South Water street one day
when he came upon a huge box of snow
buntings, beautiful feathered visitors
from the far north. It is against the
law to kill them or to have them in
possession for purposes Of sale. The

what the birds were.

1t may not be known, but it is fact
that no restaurant or store has the
right to offer reed birds for sale. The
reed bird is simply the bobolinll in his
fall plumage and the bobolink is pro-
tected by law. The reason that the
Audubon people and the game warden
don't bother much about the reed bird
question is that ninety-nine one hun
dredths of the reed birds sold in Chi
cago are English sparrows.
The severe weather during the latter

north to Lake Michigan great flocks of
beautiful ducks known as 'old squaws."
They are beautiful and after that all is

nothing short of disgusting. The poor,
confiding creatures have been slaugh-

ceive, through the priest, st. Anthony's
blessing. 1t is the custom of the COM
mon class to clean and bedeck their
animals specially for this blessing.
Dogs are gayly decorated with rib
bons tied around their necks. Sheep
are washed thoroughly until their
fleece is white as snow, and then taken
to the father to be blessed. The beaks
of the parrots are gilded. Horses and
burros are adorned with garlands.-
