What to Do Until the Doctor Arrives

1t is very hard to stand idly by and
see our dear ones suffer while awaiting
the arrival of the doctor. An Albany
IN. " dairyman called at drug store
there for doctor to come and see his
child, then very sick with Group. Not
finding the doctor in, he left word for
him to come at once on his return. He
also bought bottle Of Chamberlain g
Cough Remedy which he hoped would
give some relief until the doctor should
arrive. In a few hours he returned,
saying the doctor need not come. as the
child was much better. The druggist,
Mr.. Otto Scholz. says the family has
since recommended Chamberlain =
Cough Remedy to their neighbOrs and
friends until he has a constant demand
for it from that part of the country.

MARCH AND THE LION.
Something Better Than the Old Saw

The saying about the lion and the
lamb in March often proves false, but
there is another and a better one which
is literally true. When March comes
in and finds YOU taking Hoods Sarsa-
parilla to purify. enrich and vitalize
your blood, you may expect, when it
goes out. that it will leave you free
from that tired feeling and with none
of the boils, pimples and eruptions
which manifest themselves because Of
impure blood in the spring. If you have
not already begun taking Hoods Sarsa-
parilla for your spring medicine we
advise YOU to begin today. We assure
you 1t will make you feel better all
through the coming summer.

made a party to tn. suit and her home

made party to the suit and her home
stead rights cut of by foreclosure.
Mr.. Shropshire applied to the district
court for writ OF assistance to put him
into possession as against Thomas Hood
and his wife Martha Hood and claimed
that the mortgage which had been fore
closed was for the purchase price Of the
place and therefore they were not en-
titled to homestead estate as against
the purchase money mortgage.
Judge Stevens denied the application
for writ OF assistance and in giving his
reasons, stated: that under the laws OF
this state every party who had acquired
an interest in the property subsequent
to the execution OF the mortgage and
prior to the beginning OF foreclosure
must be made party to the suit in or
der that their rights be determined in
court ard that they may have the right
to redeem from the sale.
He held that Mrs Hood by virtue of
the homestead entry had an estate in
the property and was entitled to the
possession Of it until such time as she
was made party to the fore reclosure suit
and her right was cut out by action in
court.
He also held, as a matter OF public
policy the husband should not be separ-
ated from the wife, aud therefore, be-
cause the wlfe was entitled to possession
the husband could remain there with
her. This leaves the Hoods in posses
sion of the property until such time as
the homestead estate il cut of by subse-
quent action.

GIRL DIES AFTER A
TWO YEARS TRANCE.

San Francisco-Aftcr two years of un-
consciousness Miss Elida Wilbur died
todty.
In February, 1898, Miss Wilbur Was
found in her room unconscious with tho
gas turned on. She was lying on a sofa
with novel in her hand, and it was at
first supposed she had committed sui
eide, but an investigation disproved this
supposition and it became known that
she had fallen asleep while reading and
that gust OF wind had extinguished the
light, leaving the gas to escape into the
room and rob the young lady Of her
senses
The usual remedies were applied, but
the doctors could do nothing toward re-
viving the girl. The best physicians in
the city were called. and every known
means Of restoring consciousness was ap-
piled without result.
The girl retained in a great measure
her former beauty and to all appear
ances she was but in pleasant and
peaceful slumber

SAVE MONEY
By Patronizing the Mesa County Build
ing & Loan Association-The Is
Difference in Good Things.

aug " AOdA nocOCldIkOA kuCiC 10
Difference in Good Things.
Do not be deceived by advertisements
and statements made by agents repres-
enting foreign Building and Loan asso-
Citations. The Mesa County Building &
Loan association does not charge as
much on given amount borrowed as
outside associations charge, and it also
pays larger dividend on account Of less
expensive management.
| Experience has demonstrated to q
number of our best citizens (whose names
we have) that the liberal promises made
by travelling agents, who talk for the
dollars there are in it, are not carried
out. This they have found out to their
sorrow.
The Mesa County Building i Loan
association will show to any Of it's mem
bers or to those contemplating making
loans that it has been, and is doing bet
ter for its members than the printed
that they can do.
For example we herewith submit a
comparative statement between the FL
deity Savings association Of Denver,
Colo, and the Mesa County Building &
l. ,an association OF Grand Junction,
Colo 3, taking loan of $1,000 on Certif1-
cate No. 284 in the Mesa County Build
ing & Loan association dated April 10Th
1897 which shows difference in favor Of
the Mesa County Building & Loan asso-
citation according to the printed state
ment OF the Fidelity Savings association
entitled "Information for Borrowers
Tor period Of 32 months of $65 76 and
for period Of 1913 (the time required to
mature loan in the Fidelity association
according to their statemenD Of S252.76

Figuring on this basis the same loan
in the Fidelity Savings association for
period Of 1913 months (their time Of ma
turing loan according to their statement)
would cost the borrower $252.76 more
than in the Mesa County Building &
Loan Assn. for the same period.
All other loans in our Association will
compare as favorably with the Fidelity
as the above named loan.
The total amount charged by the
Mesa County B. & l.. Assn. per $1,000
per month is Sl5 90 while that Of the
Fidelity Savings Assn. is SIS 80.
The Mesa County B. & L. Assn. has
always permitted it's borrowers to pay
all or portion of their loans at any
time.
In the face Of the above facts it is cer-
tainly to the interests of all who desire
loans to secure them fron4 the Mesa
County B. g. l.. Assn, thereby saving
money for themselves and building up
their home community and home insti-
tutions by keeping interest money at
home.

b. q M. Extensions.

The B. & M. railroad have filed notice
of extending seventeen miles from Hill

ship 2, range 8; also line beginning on
above branch in section 33, township /.
range 5; O distance of five miles; also a
branch from Harvey in section 10, town
ship 2, range 81 down Battle Creek to
the east line of section 13, township 2
range 8; a distance of miles.-State
Register.
The branches referred to above are,
one from the point where the Keystone
branch crosses Palmer's Gulch, thence
north to Spring Creek, thence down the
creek to Sheridan and the Blue Lead
Copper camp. The line from Keystone
will run down Battle Creek to Hayward
Six miles below Keystone. The other
branch will be from Harnsy City, cross
over the divide to Iron Creek. thence in
q southwsstsrly course to Iron Noun.
tain and probably to Custer. at which
point large quantities of oak and pine
ties are now being accumulated. With
these extensions completed and mar
ket opened fer the fluxing ores at Sheri-
dan and Iron Mountain for which there
is a large demand, the traffic Of the B.
& NJ. in the Black Hills will be greatly
increased. The road will also enjoy
considerable traffic in supplying several
mining districts with machinery, mer-
chandise, etc. which has heretofore
been obtained at Rapid and Hermosa
These extensions will extend to some Of
the heaviest miLeralized and richest
mining districts in the Black Hills and
also pass through the best timber lands
in South Dakota. Mining at Keystone,
Sheridan, Harney City, Hayward, spo-
kane, Iron Mountain, Chilcoot and in
the vicinity of Custer will receive new
impetus during the coming season.

Since the last ssue Of the CHRONICLE
Congressman Gamble has given out the
information that he wonld not be can
dijate for denomination to congress,
but would be candidate for the senate.
This decision was made by him at the
earnest solicitation of republicans
throughout the state who regard Mr..
Gamble as the strongest and most avail
able man for the senate. This leaves
the field open for the Hills to ask for a
ongressman, and it is lime for the peo-
Pile to get together and work unitedly-
for that end, and for one man. M.
Martin, of whom mention was made last
week, appears to be receiving unani-
nous endorsement, and is in every way
qualified for the position. Any budding
congressional aspiration of any other
candidate ought to he regarded with
disfavor, and the Hills should support
Mr.. Martin. If this is done there are
good prospects of success. We need a
member in congress from the Hills, and
by united action the chances are very
favorable for securing one. Work to-
gether.

A Timber Destroying Worm.

Forest Supervisor Ii. G. Hamaker,
while in Deadwood recently is reported
in the Black Hills Mining Review to
have said that worm waJ at work on
the Black Hills timber that would de
yastate the country of timber in a few
years if not destroyed.
Already" says Mr.. Hamaker, -four
and one-half townships have been
worked over and about seyenty-fve per
cent of the pine timber has been killed.
/ examined piece of bark taken from a
dead pine tree, the piece being about ten
inches square. counted seventy one
dead bugs and around each bug there
was cluster of eggs which would hatch
out in the spring in worms. These
worms do the work of destruction. The
first season that tree is attacked the
body part seems to die and the boughs
remain green until the following season,
when they die and turn brown in color.
The tree will retain its life for all pur-
poses for about two years, when it com
msnces to decay and finally falls to the
ground. Daring the past year there
have been about 100000 feet of this
worm-killed timber sold to the mines
and saw-mills for fifty cents per thou
sand feet. Az yet no objection has been
made by the state mine inspector to the
mine owners using this class of timber,
but it is question whether it will al
ways be permitted. Some years ago
there was similar worm in the forests
of Virginia which killed the trees the
same way as the Black Hills worm does.
A bug was introduced into the district
which in short time extsrminated the
wood eating pest. The government is
at present working upon the Black Hills
worm. and some method will be found
for its determination"
Mr.. Hamaker states that there are at
present seven lumber camps in the
| Black Hills, which are producing
monthly about 100000 feet of lumber
that is practically all used within the
Black Hills. The Homestake Mining
Company now buys all of its timber from
the government reserve, the last pur.
chase being 100000 feet. This timber
is first measured standing and is again
measured after being cut. This purchase
will last the Homestake Company about
two years. The annual consumption OF
timber for all purposes in the Black
Hills is about 100000 feet. Mr..
Hamaker is in hopes of getting larger
appropriation for the maintenance OF
the forestry reserve than lie had las,
year.
