Don't be satisfied with temporary re-
lief from indigestion. Kodol Dyspep,
sia Cure permanently and completely
removes this complaint. It relieves
permanently because it allows the tired
stomach perfect rest. Dieting won't
rest the stomach. Nature receives sup
plies from the food we eat. The SEN
sible way to help the stomach is to use
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, which dlgests
what you eat and can't help but do you
good. w. A. Rembert.

One Of Texas' Mig Ranches.

Texas Is noted for the number and
extent Of its ranches. or n total Of
several thousand, they vary in size
from a few thousand to several mil
lion acres. the large ones averaging
10000 acres. The greatest is the tx.
I. r." In the Panhandle. which en-
braces half a dozen counties and on
tains nearly 100000 acres. 1t be-
longs to the "capitol syndicate" Il
company Of men who received this
vast territory some twenty years ago
In return for providing the magnificent
%statehouse Mt Austin. The ranch is d.
vided into seven sections, each man.
aged by a foreman and each connected
with the headquarters by means Of
telephones. The whole is run with the
system and dispatch which character
lie all great industries.
On this ranch now run considerably
over 100000 head of cattle, and an
idea of the size may be gained from
the fact that the pasture fence extends
21O miles in one direction and 25 in
another, making n total of about 5000
square miles. From time to time small
parcels Of land have been sold, and
meanwhile valuations have appreciat-
ed from so cents an acre to four times
that amount.-Review of Reviews.

"The increased consumption Of tea Is
Of the interesting phases Of modern

prised at the increased number CT tea
drinkers.
Up to Il few years ago IN the more
remote sections of the country tea was
used almost exclusively In the sick

country from the druggist. The man
who dealt in general merchandise rare
iy thought Of selling tea unless he had
n medicine counter IN his store. Tea
was something fuIcky. to be given to
the convalescing patient along with
crackers. tasteless broth and things of
that sort.
'Tl.is Is not the case now. Tea Is
bought in rather large quantities by
country merchants, and the country
folk use IT for other than sickroom
purposes. 1t Is extensively used
throughout the country.
"There is a still more interesting fact
In connection with the growth OF the
tea trade. Negroes are now great tea
consumers. You would be surprised ut

element OF the populations Using ten

used for it's medicinal properties. 1t

kiM Cows and Live LONG.

r."
It has long been noted that butch
ers, other things being equal, are far
less subject to consumption than
men engaged in other occupations. A
physician who has given this circum-
stance much thought has a theory
that the smell of fresh meat, the con
slant inhalation Of the fumes Of the
slaughter house, and the handling Of
the freshly killed carcasses Of healthy
animals drive away any tendency to
pulmonary complaint. In fact, he goes
further and affirms that the atmos-
phere Of the shambles is a cure-all
for any complaint that arises from
living an abnormal life, devoid Of
the bracing qualities necessary to a
robust existence.
Did you ever see a sickly looking
butcher" asks the medical man. A
tour Of the butchers shops Of Chicago
made in the interests of science and
the reading public failed to bring to
view one knight of the cleaver who
showed signs Of departing to an early
grave by way Of the consumptives'
route. Some, when asked, confessed
to having at rare intervals slight at
tacks Of headache or tcothache, but
the butcher whose earnings had gone
to swell the bank account Of any local
practitioner could not be discovered
even after a most diligent search.
1t appears that the healthiness of
the butcher fraternity has SO i'm
pressed itself upon some puny speci-
mems Of humanity that the slaughter
houses are frequented by invalids,
who go there possessed of the idea
that mere association with men who
live In an atmosphere Of blood is cal
culated to put new life into worn
frames. At one of the slaughter
houses 1t was said that consumptives
and anaemic persons were in the hab-
1t of attending when animals were to
be s%laughterer and drinking warm
blood as it dropped from the victim
Of the p~ole-axe or the knife.
1--WE sell it to them at so much a
glass;" explained one butcher. Some
come here with letters from physi-
clans advising them to drink the
blood Of freshly killed animals. No,
we don't drink it ourselves. We're
healthy enough without that kind of
stimulant."-Chicago Chronicle.

ASKS TO DECLINE.
Senator Hoar Gives His Reasons for
Not Acting.

WV VSS1uSs
Worcester, Mass, Oct. 28.-Mayor
Philip ]. O'Connell tonight sent to
the city council a letter from Senator
Geo. F. Hoar, asking to be permitted
to decline the invitation to eulogize
President Mckinley.
In the course Of his letter Senator
Hoar refers to the fact that he will
be extremely busy the next few
weeks, but if business was the only
reason he should endeavor to over
come it. Continuing he says: But
| can in frankness state an even
stronger reason. I think an eulogy
on the president should be delivered
by some person who was in full ac-
cord with him upon the principle
political measures of his administra-
ton. l never questioned his absolute
sincerity; his devotion to public well
fare; his love Of liberty and his de.
sire to do his duty as God gave him
to see it. I was fully in accord with
him on the great financial measures
in which he was identified. But,
as you know, I differed with him, and
his administration, and my opinion
on that subject has been strengthen.
ed and not weakened in lapse of time,
in regard to his policy in dealing with
the Philippine islands,"

Argentine Treaty Not to Be 'ncor
porated in Reciprocity.


porated in Reciprocity.
A Washington dispatch to the Min
neapolis Journal says: 1t has been
decided by the friends OF the reel
procity treaties, in the final battle for
their ratification, which will soon
open, to abandon the Argentine
treaty. This will obs,or,y not be
done formally, for that would be dis
courteous to the Argentine govern
ment, which has renewed the time at
our disposal for the treaty's consid-
Grafton, but the "tip" has quietly been
given to let that compact drop, and,
with it out Of the way, to e what
can be done with the others.
The reason for this move is plain.
The Argentine treaty has been the
Jonah" of the group. 1t attacked
wool, appropriately termed the "key.
stone Of the protective ARCH" and
while the remissions it offered we're
but slight and would still leave a very
handsome protection, the wool grow
ers are sc strongly e%ntrenched po-
l~itically that they do not need to
make any concessions whatever and
will not do so. The treaty, because
Of this effect on wool, has been
more widely discussed and its terms
have become better known than any
other, and hence it has served to dis.
credit the whole group with those
who feel the sorrows" of the wool
grower. It is believed that but for
1t half the opposition which the new
reciprocity movement has aroused
would have been averted. It Is now

CONFESSED AFTER ARREST
Believing That the Wound He Had
Received Would Prove
Fatal.

nan who held up the Oxford saloon
in Butte Wednesday morning and the
Dewey saloon in this city Friday
night, was captured here last night
after IN exciting chase, in which
Aker was wounded in the neck. He
has confessed to both crimes.
Since the bold robbery Of Friday
when a youthful bandit %unmasked, at
6 o'clock in the evening, entered the
Dewey saloon near the Haymarket
and compelled the bartender to hand
out the c%ashdrawer, Notwithstanding
the fact that there were six other
men in the saloon at the time, the
police department has been working
hard to locate the man by the de-
scription given by the bartender.
Tonight Acting Chief George Farm
ham was told Of a man answering the
description, and he Immediately start

man in Peterson's saloon on Broad

diately returned by the latter.
The criminal then fed down the
street and vas headed off by Deputy
Sheriff Scharrinboeich. Aker turned
into Jackson street, followed by the
officers, who kept up a fusillade on
the fleeing bandit. Aker ran down
Jackson street to Breckenridge and
turned up back Of A. Curtin's store.
Here he was seen to fall, and it is
presumed he was hit by a bullet from
Farnham's gun. He regained his feet,
however, and started down Warren
street, past the Grandon hotel, with
the two officers and Special Police
man J. L. Flannery, who had later
joined in the chase, in close pursuit,
followed by a hundred citizens.
The fugitive was a Splinter, but
was overtaken by Officer Flannery
on Seventh avenue, near Main street.
He put up a stubborn resistance, but
was o~verpowered by the officers.
When arrested his gun was found
to contain but n loade shell, the
other five having been discharged at
the officers.
When he was taken to the station

before leaving Butte he had roomed
at 321 South Arizona street. He said
that he vas formerly a canvasser for
picture frames and had worked all
the large cities Of the state. He told
in detail Of the robbery Of the Oxford
saloon and his leaving Butte the next
night, and Of the robbery Of the
Dewey here. He had $7.35 in his
pockets and asked that this be sent
to Mrs. J. A. Collan, 915 Copper
