GOOD WORDS FOR CONGRESSMAN MINOR.
Mr.. Minor is Regarded by His Associates as
one Of the Most Effective Men in the House.

Party prejudice and political hatred
have OftimeS warped the common sense
of good men and probably will until
the end Of time. A good officer and
servant of the people who, by his hard
and persistent work, is daily demon
Strating his worth to his constituents
is usually the man who brings upon
his head the strongest condemnation
of the opposing faction. A case in
point is that of Congressman Minor Of
this district. Speaker Henderson of
Iowa, and no man knows better of what
he speaks when referring to the house of
representatives than he, in the warm
est terms endorses the good work of
Congressman Minor.
Il regard Capt. Minor as one Of the
most energetic, faithful and useful
members of the house and | do not
object to your saying so as coming from
me. Mr.. Minor is painStaking men,
Der and he is especially energetic in
his care for the interests of the north
west in legislation pending before the
committees of which he is a member
| appointed him to a place on the
merchant marine committee and in
that position he has been diligent in
the discharge of his duties and he has
contributed in a material way to the
improvement Of shipping legislation
pending before the committee. and
his labOrs in that direction have been
Of excellent and important service to
the country. He is friend of labor
and its interests and in respect to
legislation for the Great Lakes region
he is a most valuable member of the
house. He is not only qualified to
attend to the duties of his place, but
he is always in his place and does not
sneak away when important legislation
is pending demanding the attendance
of the majority members in order that
legislation may have the careful con-
Sideration which it deserves. I can
not speak too strongly my convictions
of the merits of Mr.. Minor as a mem

Girls Beware.

Franklin Matthews in Harpers Weekly for
October.
I viii take any one worthy of con-
SideratiOn in the matter to Il man
whose business it is to send out agents
to scour the country for girls who,
under promises Of good situations, are
brought to this city for hellish pur-
poses. Never was that business more
tiOuriShing than at present. In June.
1899, one of these cases got into print.
Fifteen young women were brought to
this city from the neighbOrhOOd Of
Allentown, Pennsylvania. Those
cases got into the courts; hundreds do
not. The details of this commerce
are the most shocking Of all that
flourish. 1t is traffic that inyades
the sancity of the heme, hundreds Of
miles away. 1t tugs at the heart
strings of mothers.

My wife has been using Chamber

for a lame shoulder that has panied
her continually for nine years. We
have tried all kinds of medicines
and doctors without receiving any
benefit from any of them. One day
we saw an advertisement of this
medicine and thought of trying it.,
which we did with the best of
satisfaction. She has used only one
bottle and her shoulder is almost well.

BOY ATTACKED
BY MAD BULL.
Tried 10 Defend Himself Win a
Pocket Knife.
RESCUED BY FARM HAND.

Denver, Jan 3 Near Arvada
at $50 this morning Howard Hunt
was gored by mad bull on his
mothers ranch.
The boy on Saturday broke his
leg. and this morning started across
the ranch on crutches to take the
train for this city. When passing
through the pasture the animal at
tackled him. He threw down his
clutches and attempted to defend
himself with his pocket knife. He
succeeded in cutting a long cash
in the bulls neck, which only in
creased the fury of the thoroughly
maddened brute. He threw the
boy down, trampled on him and
gored him, tearing out a portion
of the unfortunate lads stomach
and breaking three ribs. William
Long, ranch hand, saw the strug-
gle, and, picking up a rifle, killed
the bull at the first shot.
The boy was taken to Arvada,
where he is being attended by Dr.
Fremont. He is still unconscious
and will die.

new departure here in the oil fields,

in interfering with the local Mexican magis-

trial of one Of the two Grigsby brothers
on a charge Of malicious persecution. The

ploye, a native, for malicious persecution
and while the. case was pending before the
Mexican courts the American officials above
referred to interfered, addressing written
request to the magistrate to be furnished
with the record in the case. AS the Mexi-
can government had already shown COM
mendable disposition to accede to all proper
representations from Minister Clayton re-
specting this case. which was running
smoothly in the diplomatic channels, the
action of the naval captain and the con-
sular agent was regarded as unwarranted.
and they have been admonished against a
repetition of the offense. The Mexican gov
ernment is entirely satisfied with the
prompt action of the State Department in
the matter. and the incident as a whole
has really had happy results.
