RICHEST BEGGAR ON EARTH.

The richest beggar in the world lives
in Russia. He was born without feet
or arms, and his physical dcfao.s have
brought him great sympathy and much
cash. sympathy would be much better
bestowed if it We're given to the army
of industrious men in this country who
overwork themselves and break down
their health. These men lose their
appetites. and the stOmaChS go back
on them" Their nerves are shattered
and they cannot sleep. The quickest
way for these men to recover their
health is to take Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, which is intended particularly
for those who suffer from any Of the
complaints mentioned. This remedy
is so well known that it is recognized
as one Of the worlds standard medi-
cines.

follows:
zone very meritorious measure, that
making it a fineable offense for ladies
to wear high hats at any entertain

with a single dissenting vote. The bill
grew out of a bantering bet made by a
prominent state officer and a member
of the state senate. They went to an
entertainment together and were pre-
vented from seeing but little OF the
play on account OF two very much be-
plumed hats, worn by a couple OF
ladies in front OF them. The state
Official was exasperated beyond endur-
ance, and said it ought to be made a

senator did not dare to introduce a

THEY WOULD NOT SIGN.
Jurors in Adams Case Did Not Comply
With Courts Order.
Special Dispatch to the Standard

Special Dispatch to the Standard
Bozeman, Aug. 1S.-Eight jurymen in
the case of the state VS.. Adams were
summarily excused for the term by
Judge Armstrong this morning because
they would not sign a verdict of ac-
quittal of Adams.
When court convened this morning
the jury was called and the members
asked if they had signed the verdict.
The foreman said they had not, and
then the judge seemed to have a great
mind to commit them for contempt, ard
stated that this seemed to be about the
parting of the ways. when the judges
order was not obeyed. and the jury took
upon itself the province of both judge
and jury, that they We're apparently
no friends of his, and had no respect
for his legal knowledge.
After scoring them in this respect for
some time, he said that all those who
did not sign the verdict would be eX
cused for the term. and Jurymen Fly,

followed by his instruction in compl1-
ance with section 2,096 of the penal
code. The defense has moved for
discharge of the defendant and it is
very improbable that he will be tried

was some time before he was rounded up
and the journey to Boulder continued. He
