BROUGHT TO Chicago for Trial.

Brought to Chicago for Trial.
Helena Mont, Sept. 4. - Deputy
United States Marshal Gage arrived
yesterday from the Yellowstone Park,
having in custody Frank Moore. Moore
was Il soldier in Company l. Sixth
United States infantry, in the memo
rable Indian campaign of 1876 in this

these republicans were invited into the
party what was to become of them?
Gen. James B. Weaver, filled with the
old fire OF oratory, spoke also for silver
and declared that as tactical move
ment that which is proposed here would
prove to be the worst ever made by the
party. 1t would ALLEVIATE thousands who
had come into the party in recent years.
He denounced the entire movement
as an attack on the entire Kansas City
platform.
Judge A. Van wagenen, of Sioux
City, asked for calm and fair discus
sion of the subject. He had been for
that it is not now an issue and there
are other issues which the people
ought to have brought to their atten-
.tion. He predicted abandonment of the
free silver plank at the next democrat
ic national convention. He said that
the silver men had become angry and
he did not believe they meant what
they had said. He urged adoption of
the majority report.
The roll call showed that the anti
silver men had majority in the con-
vention of forty. After the result was
announced. 344 to 3s4. Walt Butler de-
clared that the platform contained not
a word that was not genuine democrat
ic doctrine and he moved it's adoption
unanimously. This was not quite done,
but the enthusiasm of the convention
was for last time uncorked in great
manner.
The debate was the whole conven-
ton. The matter of naming the ticket
was of little consequence and was SO
considered by the convention. The
party has deliberately turned its back
on free silver in Iowa after the most
eloquent appeals ever made to save IT.

Hicks Predi cts stormy August.

August will be month of storms
according to Rev. Irl r. Hicks. The
month will make its advent with a
period of storm disturbances and we
enter regular storm periods as we pass
out of August the crisis of which will
fall in the first three days of Septem-
Der.
Prof Hicks says the 3rd and 4th of
August are to be central days of reac-
tionary storm disturbances. On and
touching these days the temperature
will rise to climax Of warmth and
barometric clouds with thunder light
rains and heavy buster In many Sec
tions.
Excessively warm weather will fol-
low, and if violent electrical storms
do not result seismic disturbances will
be most natural. 1t is questionable
whether reactions to cooler weather
will follow the storm period or wheth-
er general and heavy rains will end
these storms during much of August.
Very warm weather, with light pre-
cipitatlon-even hurtful dreuth-are
in store for most parts of the country,
until the latter part of the month, es-
peeially.
A fact worthy of being remembered
is, when these West India hurricanes
and cyclones appear early, or during
the month of August, if they come
near enough to our south coasts to
affect the atmospheric currents. of
our continent, northerly winds, very
cool weather and early frosts are more
than probable.

PROLONGED LIFE.
Arthur Martin TASTED 2s Days to cure
Consumption.
Connellsville Courier.


Connellsvile Courier.
Arthur Martin of Hopwood, who
died on Friday of consumption tried
TO cure himself by fasting. So me
time ago he was Informed that there
was no hope for him. He had inherit
ed the disease and there seemed to
be no possible chance for his recovery.
Martin knew of the theory of starva-
tion to overcome the disease. At first
he took one meal a day, then tried
going without food for several days
at time Last November he began
his long fast. He intended to do
without food for two weeks, but actu-
ally continued without morsel OF
food for % days, During this time
he continued taking exercise, walking
three miles TO Uniontown daily to see
his physician.
He lost half a pound day. weigh
ing lis pounds at the and of his long
fast. He had lost all desire for food.
Then on diet of milk and eggs his
wonderful recovery began. In short
time he weighed more than he ever
did before and showed remarkable
improvement His disease was too
deep seated, however, and month
ago the final decline set in. His doc
tor believes he prolonged his life by
his remarkable fast and would have
overcome the disease had it not been
inherited.
