Pulled = Gun.

There was quite a little ruction at
the Depot Hotei Sunday evening be.
tween Ike OStreicher and Charley
Waller. From what we learn about
the affair the parties had a war Of
words in the bar room, in which very
abusive language was used by Mr..
Ostreicber. Charley finally got tired
OF the abuse and asked Ostreicher 70
step outside. This he did, but armed
himself before going. Charley Raw
him get his gun and when he came
out he invited him to step of the
platform. He did 80 and Charley
struck HIM and Ostreicher pulled his
gun. Charley caught him before he
could use it and held him while Mr..
Carroll and Doc. Will on took the
pistol away. While Charley held
Ostreicher, the pistol was suappe I,
tie hammer falling ON his thumb and
bruisin9 it considerably.
1t seeme to be a favorite pastime
with Mr.. Ostreicher to provoke a
quarrel with some one and then try
to bluff them out with a pistol
Such conduct will soouor or later 70
suit in the loss Of some good citizens
life and cannot be too severely con-
demned. The next grand jury should
investigate this practice of drawing.
guns on people because they will not
quietly submit to vile abuse.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the
Rapid Increase of Heart
Troubles.
DO Not Be Alarmed, But Look for tho

DO NOT BE Alarmed, But Look for tho
- Cause.
Heart troubles. at least among
the Americans, are certainly increas-
ing and while this may be largely
due to the excitement and worry Of
American business life, it ia more
often the result of weak stomachs,
OF poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable;
but not one case in a hundred Of
heart trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart
trouble and poor digestion ia because
both organs are controlled by the
same great nerves, the Sympathetic
and Pneumogastric
In another way, also the heart ia
affected by the form of poor diges.
ton, which causes gas and fermen.
tatiou from half digested food.
There is feeling Of oppression and
heaviness in the chest caused by pres
cure OF the distended stomach on the
heart and lungs interfering with their
action; hence arises palpitation and
short breath.
Poor diges ton alao poisons the
blood, making it thin and watery
which irritates and weakens the
heart
The most sensible treatment for
heart trouble is to improve the diges-
tioh and to insure the prompt assira-
ilationof food.
This car be done by theregular use
after meals Of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
may be found at m"at drug stores and
which contain valuable, harmless di-
gestion elements in pleasant, con-
venient form.
1t is safe to say that the regular
persistent use OF S'uart's Dyspepsia
Tablets at meal time will cure any
form OF stomach trouble except can
Ger OF the stomach.
Full sized package Of these tablets
sold by druggists at 81 cents. Little
book on stomach troubles mailed

1T ID not generally known" said
the teller Of a bank. @but bills can be
washed and ironed rs easily as a

What Il Right Can Exist.

From the ST. Louis Post Dispatc oh:
In his speech at the trial Of Warren
Hastings, Edmund Burke had this to
say OF the right NJ conquest:
"l'he title Of conquest makes no
difference at all. No conquest can
give right, for compassionate is,
force-cannot convert it's own injus-
tice into just title bv which it may
rule others at ito pleasure"
No sophistry can overcome this
Main proposition Of righteousness.
1t is affirmed in the conscience of
every man. And il this country is to
Escape the ruin which overtakes
wrongdoers it must test its policy by
the standards OF right. This ia the
essential principle Of true American
policy.

Funny.

Nevada legislation is funny thing
sometimes. The On called legislat ure
now in session at Carson enacted a
law relating exclusively to Reno. to
which at least four. iths Of the people
interested were opposed.
On Friday the Senate defeated a
bill relating exclusively to Carson,
which more than four-tiths of the
people Of that city favored, and which
Was also favored by a majority of the
Ormsby county delegation. This
funny business is easily explained.
Both the enactment and rejection
were in the interest Of wealthy cor
porations. Reno journal.
