Baltimore and Ohio preferred was the
feature OF the railway list. with a quick
advance to S. 5-S. while. the remainder OF
the list was sagging. The common stock
advanced also. but only in a mild way. and
was always two or three points below the
preferred which is a reversal Of the posi-
tion recently held by the two stocks. Sew
eral theories were advanced to account for
the strength Of the preferred. among them
the old one that the stock is entitled to
and may receive more than per cent after
the common has been put on a 4 per cent
basis. This idea is without foundation.
Under no condition is the preferred stock
entitled to any more than 4 per cent, and
an agreement would have TO be secured
from the common stockholders TO change
this The March statement OF the COM
pany is~quite sufficient to account for the
strength Of the stock Of itself The net
earnings were more than a million dollars,
the figures being about 81 csc 900. The in
crease over March last year was S420, COO or
Sc per cent. There is manipulation in the
Baltimore and Ohio securities and at their
present level they are dangerous. but it
would seem much the safest way to gam
bic in them. IL one must, to buy the pre-
ferred and sell the common, for short
time at least Some day the common may
sell much higher than the preferred.

Third Avenue was again one OF the fea-
lures OF the list. with squirt TO l23, and
much strength during the entire session,
although some decline was registered be-
fore the close from the highest price. The
occasion for the boom in the stock was the
publication Of the particulars regarding the

Washington, Dec. 3.-On the floor of

BORNS Is MAD.

SAYS CONDUCTOR HATTON PUT
HIM OFF A MOVING TRAIN AND
HE WANTS DAMAGES.
DR.. J. E. Borns, director Of an cleo
trical surgical institute at Fargo, says
Conductor Hatton put him off a stock
train at Mandan last week and he sus-
tanned injuries for which he wants
balm from the company. Borns was
at Mandan On business and said he
wanted to come to Bismarck. He got
on the stock train in the Mandan
yards without a permit and when Con-
ductor Hatton came in and found he
had no permit after the train started,
he orderd him off the train. Borns
refused to go while the train was in
motion, he says, and then, he alleges,
Hatton threw his grips off the train
and threw him off after them. Borns
says he was bruised in spirit and flesh
and had to walk back to Mandan in a
temperature of Is below zero. He has
put the matter into the hands of his
attorneys.

HARRINGTON'S A
INDIAN RELATES WHAT PUR-
PORT TO BE PARTICULARS OF
HIS DEATH.

INDIAN RELATES WHAT PUR-
PORT TO BE PARTICULARS OF
HIS DEATH. f..
Fort Yates, ~. D., Nov. 26.-After
the Custer massacre in 1876 the re-
mains of all the officers engaged in the
battle were found with the exception
of those of Lieutenant Harrington,
His fate was always an uncertainty,
even to his wife and nearest relatives.
The Indians have always been 10th to
talk to strangers of their own race or
to white people concerning the mas
sacre.
A correspondent has just received
the particulars of the lieutenant's
death from an Indian named Paints
Himself-Brown,. who was present.
His testimony is corroborated by 9TH
ers.
1t appears that Lieutenant Harring-
ton was about the last of the surviv-
ors of that terrible massacre. When
his comrades were about all killed
around him, he made a wild dash on
Ills horse and managed to escape
through the line of fighting Indians
to the open prairie. A party of about
seven pursued him. Their ponies
were tired, however, and one of the
Indians said:
We'll, he is the only one left alive,
let him go and tell the news to the
white man."
So they agreed to abandon the chase
all but one whose name the CORE
spondent is not at liberty to give. This
man, whose horse was not so tired,
said, 81 will follow him a little fur
ther." He says he followed but a
little way when he saw lie lieutenant
raise his pistol and fire and drop from
his saddle. The lieutenant had shot
himself rather than fall into the hands
Of the Sioux. His bones lay in an old
dry lake bed some distance from the
scene of the massacre.
1t is said Mrs. Harrington's mind
gave way under the terrible strain of
the uncertainty of her husbands fate,
and that she is now invalided at West
Point. There is no doubt that the
above is substantially a true account
of the death of her husband.

from inaction and give their shirts

comes around. So with no beaver to
show us the sign we fall back on the
next best authority-the old Indian.
The venerable record keeper Of an In
dian village says we sometimes have
three good winters in succession
mild and without snow--but never
four. The past three winters here
have been all that could be desired in
the makeup of fine weather, and the
time has now come for a change-with
two or three billiards. to remember
the opening of the 10th century.

THE WEIGH CASE.

CORONER'S JURY is FINISHING UP
ITS WORK IN THIS MURDER
CASE THIS MORNING.
The c%oroner's jury in the SimAn
WEIGH murder case was at work this
morning finishing up it's official inquiry
into the death of WEIGH. The verdict
OF the jury has been held in allegiance,
1T being hoped by the authorities that
Chilkotf, the man suspected of the
murder. might be apprehended. AL
though there have been several reports
OF his capture, none of them have been
correct and he is still at large.
The testimony taken this morning
was that of Frank Denzie, at whose
tent Chilkoff had stopped a day or so
after the murder was discovered, when
he worked for the Washburn road at
Wilton. DENIES testimony was of
Chilkoff's coming to the camp, stay
ing there for a. day and then skipping
ont at night, after the m reached
the camp of Welch's murder and that
Chilkoff was suspected.
Joseph Hess testified as to Chilkoff's
having worked there, the Hess place
being a little distance from Welch's.
He said Chilkoff had made several
visits to Welch's place, and had told
him it was rumOred WEIGH had a largo
amount of money about his place.
DR.. Bentley gave medical testimony
as to the cause of Welch's death and
the nature of his wounds.

1.-Two years ago I was a great
sufferer from womb trouble and pro-
fuse flowing each month, and tumors
would form in the womb. 1 had four
tumors in two years. I went through
treatment with doctors, but they did
ME no good, and 1 thought l would
have to resort to morphine.
"The doctor said that all that could
help me was to have an operation and
have the womb removed, but 1 had
heard of Mrs. Pinkham's medicine and
decided to try it, and wrote for her
advice, and after taking her Vegetable
Compound the tumors were expelled
and 1 began to get stronger right
along, and am as well as ever before.
Can truly say that 1 would never had
gotten we'll had it not been for Lydia
E. Pinkham's Compound. MARY A.
STAHL, Watsontown, Pa.
"After following the directions
given in your kind letter for the treat
ment of leucorrhea, 1 can say that I
have been entirely cured by the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham's remedies, and
will gladly recommend them to my
friends."-A. B. DAv1Ds, Binghamton,

TER MASSACRE, LIVES AT FAR
GO.
Fargo Forum: There is a local in.
terest in the story just made public
of the end of Lieutenant Harrington
who was a member of the Custer party
at the time of the massacre of 1876
This story is to the effect that after
getting beyond the Indian lines Lieu
tenant Harrington shot himself rather
than be captured.
H. w. Harrington. physical director
of the Y. NJ. c. A. in this city, is a
son Of the late lieutenant. He was
born at Fort Yates, but has spent most
Of his life in the east. He says that
he has heard the story of the death
of his father from soldiers with whom
he has talked since growing up, and
the account was practically the same
as is now going the rounds of the
press. He is inclined to believe the
story as true.

Sense
Talk with
Women

If a person is i'll and needs a medi-
cine is it not wise to get one that has
stood the test of time and has hun
dreds of thousands of cures to it's
credit?
everything they hear of in the way Of
unknown drugs is a constant menace
to their already impaired health.
This Gems to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no ex-
periments and have been known years
and years to be doing only good.
Take for instance Lydia p. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; for thirty
years its record has been one UNI
broken chain of success. No medicine
for female ills the world has eve
known has such a record for cures.
1t seems SO strange that some people
will take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be, and are, really harmful ;
while on the other hand it is easily
proved that ove one million women
have been restored to health by Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
We have published in the news
papers of the United States more
genuine testimonial letters than have
ever been published in the interest Of
any other medicine.
All this should, and does, produce a
spirit of confidence in the hearts of
women which is difficult to dislodge.
and when they are asked to take some
thing else they say, "No, we want
Lydia Z. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which has been tried, and
never found wanting, whose reliability
is established far beyond the expert
mental stage"
We have thousands of letterslike the
following addressed to Mrs. Pinkham,
