Wife Slept Too Late.

In a western court the other day a
man asked for divorce on the ground
that his wife would not get up early
enough to get his breakfast. In her
contemplation the wife alleged that
her husband snored SO loud that in the
early part of the night she could not
go to sleep. The court granted the
divorce on general principles, with
out prejudice against either side.

1t seems the Mayor and Council

so indecent that it became neces-

In Loving Remembrance Of Our
Mother.

After a lingering illness of more
than three years, Mrs. Mary Eliza
beth Jones passed quietly and
calmly from this life July 23, 1900.
She was born Oct. 81, 1910. Was
married to Henry L. Jones Sept
3, 1857 There were six children
to bless this union: G.. H., e. b
o. NJ, Misses Clemie, Emma and
Nancye Jones. Very early in life
she professed her faith in her Sa
viour and since then has been de-
voted member of the Methods
church. She was devoted wife,
kind, loving mother and grandma
Their, true friend. To know her
was but to love her. She was not
ed for her generosity and hospitali-
ty. Her charity knew no bounds.
There was always a smile and kind
word for those with whom she
came in contact. Forgetful of self
yet always solicitous of those
around her, inquiring in her last
hours of the comfort of those who
watched by her bedside. She pro
fessed her willingness to meet her
God. The only regret was the sep
aration from loved ones. AS she
expressed it "It's the Lords will, l
am ready and willing to CO." Bles'
sed are those who die in the Lord.
Just as the sun in his splendor
Entered in u pom a new day
Death came and rent our hearts asunder
He took the spirit OF our mother away.
Within the portals OF our home
Sorrow and despair were reigning,
But the comforting voice Of Jesus love
Bid our souls to cease repining.
There her beloved form was lying
Devoid Of the spirit OF love-
She is asleep; we can not call it dying,
Only gone to her home above.
She has passed beyond the river
To her home beyond the sky,
To dwell with Jesus forever.
As the countless moments fly
Husband and children will strive to join sou
on the bright celestial shore,
Thy loving spirit beckons us
Onward aud upward foreyermore.

THE OLD MAN.

Old Brother Simon Bolivar
Buckner wants no more third par

Had he seen things this way four
years ago it may be Bryan would

question would have been settled
and the boys every where would
have had plenty of money and
Uncle Sam would not have had so
much debt.

CALEB POWERS.

The Caleb Powers trial for be
ing accessory to the murder OF
Gov. Goebel, continues with much
interest. If there was nothing
more to be said of this case than
where the prosecution rests, Mr..
Powers, without a doubt, is guilty
as charged. We do hope Powers
is an innocent man, and that he
will be able to show to the people
that he had no part in the muir
der. We shall wait for the de
tense to offer itssevidence.

MORE FAVORABLE.

Among the Gold Democratic
Committeeman Indiana, Illinois.
Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin
were opposed to a third ticket.
These states practically won for
the Republicans in 1896, and it
follows with this party off and
voting for the Democratic ticket it
would give additional assurance
that the Democrats are together
and that they will support the reg
ular nominees. It appears there
will be a landslide, and that Mark
Hanna, Mckinley and all Of the
kind will be covered from the sight
Of men.

From what we can gather from
all sources Bryan is more popular
than ever before, and what he
stands for is approved by the COM

Securing Your Scalp.

If your hair is brittle and thinning,
you have dandruff. The merely securing
of the scalp of loose scales, won't cure
dandrnff; because dandruff is nothing
but scales of scalp being thrown up by a
pestiferous little germ in burrowing its
way to the root of the hair where it saps
the vitality, causing falling hair and. in
time. badness. Now you can't stop
dandruff, nor falling hair, nor prevent
badness unless you destroy that germ
and the only preparation that can do it
is the new scientific discovery, Newbro's
Herpicide. In fact no other hair prep
aration claims to kill the dandruf germ
all of them will clean the scalp; soap
and water will do that, but only Newbro's
Herpicide gets at the root of the trouble
and kills the dandruff germ. % 80

! WHAT PEOPLE SAY. !

w. G. Liggett-I returned Saturday
from Soda Springs where with my family
spent several weeks. At one time
there were over an hundred people
camped on the grounds and they were
badly crowded. The sanitary conditions
are poor and will not be much improved
until someone gets into full control of
the property. Parties claim to have
leased the land on which the spring is
situated but the lease is OF doubtful vail
dity. Z w. Dixon, a pioneer preacher
of the Yakima valley, first settled on the
land and made proof under the home.
stead act. He sold the property to the
Yakima Soda Springs Co. and it is now
supposed to be in possession of a mort
gage-loan concern. 1t is claimed, how
ever, that the forty acres upon which
the spring bubbles forth has been re-
claimed by the government and will be
held as public property. If it is govern
ment property it should be looked after
by government agents as everything
seems to be going to rack and ruin, and
at the present rate the camping grounds
will soon be without shade trees.
DR.. p. Frank-THE HERALD miscon-
trued the object of the new ordinance

It is not the intention to make it tax,

There have been several deaths here of
late which should have been investigated
as they have occurred under the treat
ment of those who have not and are un.
able to obtain a physicians certificate.
