NERVE WASTE"

One Of the most helpful bcois ON
nerve weakness ever issued Il that en-
titled "Nerve Waste" by DIR. Sawyer,
Of Sen Francisco, now in its Afth thou
sand. This work efan experienced and
reputable physician is In agreeable con-
trast 70 the vast sum OF false teaching
whic4, prevails on this interesting sub
ject It abounds In carefully consider
ed and practical advice, and has the
two great merits Of wisdom and sim
cerity.
1t is endorsed by both the religious
and secular press. The Chicago Ad-
vance says: 'A perusal of the book
and the application fits principles will
put health, hope and heart into thou
sands Of lives that are now suffering
through nervous impairment"
The book is Sl.00, by mail. postpaid.
One of the most interesting chapters

High Water.

Last Monday the Dolores river was
the highest it has been since the spring
of 1884. Considerable damage was done
to ranches, the railroad and wagon
road. The second wagon bridge above
town went out and about forty feet of
the fourth one at West Fork, making
three in all that have been washed
away. The railroad bridge at Stoner
creek was badly damaged, but was re-
paired in time to prevent any delay of
trains. 1t is not unlikely that it will be
as high or higher, as there is still plenty
of snow in the mountains and n few
warm days will turn it into running
water.

A CLIFF. DWELLING PARK IN COLORADO.
BY COSMOS MINDELEFF.
From the Scientific American.

CoTINUED FROM LAST WEEK.
: 1t has been suggested that the circu-
lar towers were in some way connected
with the peculiar rites of serpant wor-
ship, and perhaps were the repositories
for the snakes used in the sacred cere-
monies. In the Moki villages, to the
south, where the snake dance is bien-
nial rite, all that part of the ceremony
which proceeds the public exhibition
takes place in the estufas, and if the
same rites prevailed in the Verde coun-
try, as seems likely, it is probable that
they We're performed in the circular
towers.
Throughout the whole of the Verde
region, in favorable localities, there are
dozens of Photographs, both pecked into
the rock and painted upon it. That
many of these were executed by the
people who built and lived in the
houses now in ruins there can be no
doubt. The figures are engraved or
cut into the face of the rock, which has
been Clipped out to a depth ofa quarter
OF an inch or more. One Of the most
striking groups is about six feet long,
and consists of a procession of men,
birds, and beasts, general movement
to the right being shown. The figures
appear to be tied together in continu-
ous line, with smaller figures, perhaps
representing dogs, above and below,
while number of men are stationed on
either side as if to keep the procession
in order. Doubtless the artist of long
ago, who must have devoted months to
his work, sought to represent some
event Of the highest importance to hi.
tribe, perhaps migration or victory
eret some ether people.

A man above medium height, florid
complexion, wearing greasy and badly
worn clothing, an iron-gny moustache,
giving the name of ]. b. Cooper, age
about So, was in Del Norte ten days
ago selling Butterick Pattern agency.
A letter from the Butterick Publishing
Co., dated May IL, denounces the fellow
as swindler and offers 800 reward for
his arrest and conviction. The man is
probably making other San Juan towns

timized will let him alone. Here is a

The Scheme Of a Fakir.

Exchanges tell of fakir who is work
ing towns and cities and rural districts
in the following manner: He drives
through the country and sells soap at
IS box, which sum includes the price
of forty yards Of carpet selected from
the samples which he has in his wagon.
He takes the S., leaves the box of soap
and promises to deliver the carpet with
in week, and drives away. The soap
is probably worth fifty cents. It stays
with the purchaser. The carpet is
worth probably SIS, but it stays with
the fakir and has not been delivered in
a single Observation-Disclosures Courier.

San Francisco Strike.

San Francisco Aug. 1.-THE local Labor
troubles appear no nearer settlement
than week ago.
"There is nothing new" said Attorney
Michael of the employers association
This was taken as meaning that the EN-
ployers are as firm as ever The forces
of organized labor are equally firm. The
leaders say they are anxious for peace and
that they are willing to make any reason
able concessions to bring about settle
ment, but they are positive in the declar
alton that there can be no compromise
that does not recognize trades unionism
But in spite of the difficulties in the way
of reconciling the views of the parties to
the controversy, many business men OF
the city are working hard to bring the
employers and the employees together. A
better feeling between the draymen's as
ISOLATION and the locked out teamsters is
apparent and there is some hope that an
end may be speedily put to the strike.
All the wharves are heavily congested
with freight. A few of the largest steam
ers are moving, but the fleet of idle vessels
in the bay is continually being augmented
by fresh arrivals, whose crews deser,
them as soon as the harbor is reached.
There was an improvement in the conui
ton Of the principal streets today. A force
of go sweepers was at work and the city
furnished eight wagons and one sprinkler
The executive committee of the labor
council has passed a resolution calling on
Mayor Phelan to remove Police Commits
sioner Newhall on the ground that the
police are being used to subserve the in
terests OF the employers association.
The communication addressed to Mayor
Phelan by the directors of the chamber o.
commerce was followed by another from
the board of trade urging upon the mayor
the issuance of proclamation declaring
that peace must be preserved and perso
nal property rights be respected. Mayor
| Phelan holds that such proclamation il
unnecessary and would be gratuitous in
suit and possible cause of violence rather
than operating to allay it. The mayor 81
| replied to the chamber of commerce ant
his position is not changed since the boart
of trade communication was drafted.
"The strike has not developed violence
| demanding the sort of measure suggested
by the chamber of commerce." said tn,
mayor tonight.
San Francisco, August 13.-Ther'
was no change of Importance in tn,
strike situation today, both sides re
naming firm, while continued, but thu!
| far, fruitless efforts at Cancellation ar
| being made.

Creamery Mt Pullman Burned.

Pullman, Wash, Aug 1.-THE cream
cry plant at the Washington Agriculture
college was destroyed by fire Saturday
The plant is total loss and 1000 pounds
of butter, worth 20 cents per pound, are
lost.
The plant was owned by the state and
was worth from 5000 to $4,000 and was not
insured. 1t was leased by j. L. Harris
who operated it under the name of the
Harris Creamery company. The plant was
one of the best in the northwest, including
a complete cheese making outfit. 1t can
not be rebuilt until the legislature meets
and passes an appropriation. A large num-
Der of farmers will be losers by the cutting
off of market for their milk, as the
creamery was using the milk from many
