Legislative Gossip.

Time works wonderful changes.
One year man comes to the capital
as an humble applicant for job in
the legislature two years hence he
presents himself arrayed in the robes
of a solon and is given the opportuni-
ty perhaps to talk imperiously to men
who at the previous session kept him
for days on the anxious seat. The
present session of the legislature pre-
sents fresh evidences of Times per-
mutations. Two years ago Wallace
B. Stanton, one Of the bright young
newspaper men of Lewiston, came to
the capitol to spear position. He
had specially in view the place of SER
geant-at-arms of the house. After
quite an animated contest he sue
ceeded in tumbling the persimmon
into his lap. Today he occupies a
seat in the lower house as one of the
representatives of Nez Perez county.
Senator William Ainsle, who halls
from the northernmost point of the
panhandle, during the Third session
was an attache of the house. His ro-
sition was then at the door, Which he
opend and shut during the long tedi-
GUS days for the entrance and exit of
the wise men. Someone opens and
shuts the door for him now.
Chief Clerk Keat of the house two
years ago was member of that body
and Representative Moody of Sho-
shOne was clerk in the last senate.

Sad Case OF Cora Reinhart.

InfFrmation Filed Alleging Unlawful
Practice and Cruel Neglect in the
Sad Case OF Cora Reinhart,
The murderer of poor Cora Rine-
hart, at least one of them, for there
were two concerned, is to be brought
before the bar of justice to answer
for his crime. The other, he who be-
trayed her ; who, like thief in the
night, stole her young life away as
surely as though he had poisoned her
drop by drop with some slow, turtur-
ing drug, yet skulks in hiding, known
only to his God and his conscience,
and safe from the vengeance of his
fellow man merely through his con-
temptible cowardlce.
An information has been filed
charging DR.. Charles w. Power, of
Spokane, with manslaughter in per-
forming criminal operation upon
the unfortunate girl. The complaint
also charges willful, cruel and inhu-
man neglect of the patient on the
part of the physician !; and after cit
ing certain specific charges of neglect
goes on to say:
"And during the entire period dtd
keep and allow to remain the person
of the said Cora Reinhart in an
offensive and unclean bed, and in
offensive and unclean clothes, and in
a filthy room filled with vile, un-
healty and POISONOUS atmosphere.
"And by the acts and things afore-
said did then and there infict upon
the person of the said Cora Reinhart
certain mortal injuries on account of
which said Cora Remnant died De-
cember IL.
"Wherefore this informant here

said Charles w. Power, on OF about

said Cora Reinhart then and there a

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
mOnia always results from cold or
from an attack of la grippe. During
the epidemic Of la grippe few years
ago when so many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed that the
attack was never followed by that di-
sease when Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy was used. 1t counteracts
any tendency of cold or la grippe to
result in that dangerous disease. 1t
is the best remedy ia the world for
bad colds and la grippe. Every bot
tie warranted. For sale by DR..
