RIch-Yet Starving.

Doctors frequently have very wealthy
patients who are starving TO death. They
have money to buy food, but their stomach
has not the strength to digest it. 1t lies there
a heavy fermented mass, the sole cause of
dyspepsia, nervousness and biliousness. The
surest remedy to cure a weak stomach is
Hosteter's Stomach Bitters. 1t will restore
yigor to the digestive organs. Nothing is
lust as good. See that private Revenue

Special to the Inter Mountain.
Helena, Mont. Sept. 3O.-Nearly five
hundred North Dakota volunteers re-
turned from San Francisco and the Phil
ippines in two sections on the Northern
Pacific We're given a taste of Montana
hospitality here. The trains arrived here
between and O'clock. each section
stopping about 20 minutes. Despite the
earliness of the hour a number of Helena
people were on hand to offer edibles
and drinkables in the shape of sand
wiches, coffee, beer and cigars and even
stronger drinks.
Many Of the North Dakotans We're
awake and those who We're not We're
aroused The early morning lunch was
appreciated and numerous cheers We're
given for Helena and it's people. 1t was
quite late last night before it was decided
to try to feed the visitors. A special
meeting of the city council was called
together and 5000 appropriated for the
purpose.
The fight the city administration is
making on corporations reached a climax
last night when President Parchen was
arrested for violating the city ordinance
in charging more than cents for fare
on the line to the Northern Pacific depot.
The council recently passed an ordinance
forbidding that charge and claims to
have power to prevent 1t. A merry fight
Is expected. Parchen is having hear

A Fitting Climax.

New York, Sept. 3O.-rhe fireworks
show last night was a fitting climax to
the days celebration. 1t began opposite
the Olympia's anchorage, just below
Grants tomb. where series of scows
We're anchored. These humble mud scows
We're loaded to the gunwales with rows
of rockets, roman candles, an endless
array of mortars, bombs and all those
sorts of fiendish Inventions When seven
bells rang out from the Olympia's deck
the aerial artillery was let loose. From
that time on it was one continuous glare
of many colored fires. and continuous
roll of rafting explosions, till the fiery
trail of the serpent wound its way down
around the Battery, engulfing Governors
island and BedlOe's island in it's contents.
Many new features We're added. Among
these were electric bombs which certain
ly electrified everyone within five miles
by their ear splitting detonations An
other new device was species of bomb
that burst into an enormous stariish fire.
Sporadic arms of fire radiated from the
explosion centre, producing IA vivid eff
feet. While the fireworks popped. the
jackieS on the Olympia cheered and the
steamboat whistles screeched. Then the
Olympias crew, not to be outdone put
their excellent brass band into commits
sion and the strains of "rherell Be Hot
Time in the Old Town Tonight" joined
with the bursting of bombs and screams
ing of fire spirits,
After half an hour of this sort of thing
the cargnes of these Scows We're ex-
hausted. Then three tugs hitched onto
another string of similarly laden scoWs
anchored out in the stream and started
with them down the river. \ pushing
crowd OF excursion boats had gathered in
a black circle about the fire works scows,
almost hiding them from the Olympia
even. The sailors got good view of
the picture of Dewey. however. and

Many Oranges and Tons of Maple

Legislative Committee. 80

Mr.. Krayenbuhl, chairman of the cora-.
mitfee on public accounts1 and expendi-
lures. submitted a final. report Yesterday
The report commended the system of &C
counts in operation in the offices Of the
state treasurer and auditor, and the man.
her in which the affairs of the state
printers department was conducted. The
committee, in part of its report, calls
attention to expenditures at the insane
asylums and 4 dinner given by the state
board of health and paid for by the state
The report says:
In checking up the vouchers of the
insane hospitals, it is noticeable that
there are still too many of the supplies
such as groceries, boots and shoes, cloth
ing, etc, purchased outside of the state
a. such prices as they could have been
obtained for in the state. where all sup
plies should be bought; also there is some
extravaganza shown i'll the purchase of
IuNurleS; such items are shown on some
or the vouchers, where. in two succeeding
months, the Rochester insane hospital
purchased ninety boxes of navel oranges
at an expense of $229; also 6624 pounds,
or nearly three and quarter tons of
maple sugar at a cost of 1896 SO. These
are luXurieS that many of the taXpavers
OF the state never have in their homes
your committee certainly think that If
the insane patients fare as well as the
pected for them"
The committee calls attention to the
TACT that in the expenditures of the state
board of health they found an item OF
six dinners, at $3.50 each, which they con-
slider eXtravagant, with the comment.
We think men who are the servants Of
the state should use the states money In
the same proportion as they use their
own"

report. There was no objection or dis
cussion, and the bill was read a second

have to be revamped, and that 1t would
be impossible to do anything, but redraft
