The bill introduced in the House by Mr.
Abbey of Essex, creating a cattle com
mission and regulating the treatment OF
bovine tuberculosis is another evidence of
the CHANCES sure to come along that line.
Tho til introduced by Mr.. Abbey differs
from Senator Russells bill In only two i'm
portant points, one is providing for SIX
cattle commits sioners, three from each
side of the State and the other is that
before condemned cattle can be slaught' r
ed the milk drawn from them must also
be tested.
Tho bill introduced by Mr. Perrin of
Berlin to refund that town 1853 30 Is of

Sunday evening George Schlegel
had been out calling and returning
home, passing Mr.. Silas Stofer's, he
was stopped by two suspicious
characters who wanted to know the
time of evening. Mr.. Schlegel
suspected they wanted his watch
and spepped through the gateway
into Mr.. Stofer's yard, played the
bluff by putting his hand on his
hip pocket and and threatening to
make clouds of smoke. George hit
right with the bluff. He suspects
they were followers of the dog
show.

Cape and Tunic Effects Modish.

Little cape effects are the novel
features of the latest walking suits. A
mixed blue and black cloth has a gored
skirt hung from a small yoke, and the
seams trimmed with black and white
braid. The jacket cover the hips, is
half-itted in the back and straight in
front, where it is closed with passe-
menterie ornaments. About the Shout
ders is a fiat cape trimmed with braid
and passementerie ornaments. The
sleeves are slashed on the outside Of
the arm, to show a ruff Of blue silk
gathered into a narrow cuff of white
linen embroidered in black cotton, and
the turnover collar worn over a soft
scarf of blue silk is to match.
In shape the tunic is probably the
most novel feature of street costumes.
1t Is used over skirts that trail a trife
and fits closely over them, fastening
invisible on one side, sometimes under
a cluster of up and down pleats or line
of trimming. But the tunic, in most
cases, is attached to the blouse under
an inconspicuous belt, and the whole
forms a coat worn over a silk or lace

A Cure for Rheumatism.

BRIDGEPORT, Wash, Oct. 20th.-Rheu-
natism and kidney trouble seem to
be the prevailing ailments in this ter
ritory and particularly in Douglas
county.
A remarkable and plainly sur cure
has, however, recently been intro
duced.
1t is called Dodd's Kidney Pills and
although but a short time on the
market, it has already worked many
wonderful cures.
One of the most striking OF these is
that of Mr.. John Higgins, who for a
long time suffered with rheumatism
and kidney trouble. The pains OF
these diseases had combined to make
his life very miserable indeed, and he
could get nothing to do him any good
till he heard of this new remedy. He
tells his experience with it in these
words:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
more for my rheumatism and kidney
trouble than anything else have eve
used. There is more virtue in them
than in any other medicine, and l viii
always recommend them to all OF my
friends highly.

BLOODY RACE o
Three White Men and Eight Negroes
ArekiIIed in Alabama.

Arekilled in Alabama.
Birmingham, Ala, Oct. 21.-Three
white mon and eight negroes are re-
ported to have been killed in a race
riot at Littleton, Ala, a small town
twenty-five miles southwest of this
city yesterday. The number of in
jured has not yet been a~scertained. A
special train carrying Sheriff Andrew
w. Burgin and ten deputies, left for
the scene of the riot at II o'clock last
night. The riot is said to have been
caused by a crowd of negroes attack
ing a white woman who was crossing
over a railroad bridge on her way
home from a visit.
rs soon as the white citizens of the
town learned Of the incident they be-
gan a search for the woman's assail-
ants. The negroes refused to deliver
them up and armed themselves to pre-
vent their capture. When the posse
arrived the negroes opened fire, kill
ing three Of the officers. The posse
returned the fire, killing eight of the
negroes. Owing to the large number
OF negroes the posse was obliged to
retire. The negroes are said to be in
complete possession of the town and
have intrenched themselves. The
negroes r said to have captured the
powder magazine of a mining COM
pany and are strongly fortified.

BRITISH LOSE HEAVILY.
Disastrous Campaign Against The
Mad MuIiah,

"dO "uIiaUs
London, Oct. 21.-The foreign ONCE
has issued ar undated dispatch from
Col. Cobbs, commanding one OF the
columns OF British forces operating
against the Mad Mullah in Somali-
land. The dispatch vas forwarded
through the British vice consul at
Berbera, Somaliland. The British
forces engaged were composed IN
tirely Of native troops and levies.
Col. Cobbs says:
my force reached Erego this mor
ing. When about one days march
north Of Mudug it was attacked in the
thick bush. Two advances were
made and the enemy was beaten back
in the morning. Their losses we're
heavy and We captured one hundred
rifles. Our force then proceeded to
collect animals for transportation
purposes and to join the detachment
at the stockade camp. In the after
noon a reconnaissance was made
and, after sharp fighting, the enemy
were again driven of.
II deeply regret the following cas-.
ualties: Col. Phillips and Capt.
Angus and fifty men killed and about
one hundred men wounded. The lat
ter include Capt. Howard and Lieut..
Everett, but both are doing well.
There were severe losses among the
transport and riding camels. The
fierce will reach the stockade camp to-
morrow and will advance to attack
the enemy"
The vice consul also telegraphs the
substance Of a later dispatch from
Col. Swayne, who says that as a re-
suit of the fighting at Erego Oct. G.,
which was very severe, the Somali
levies were considerably shaken. The
mullah, who is said to be in COM
munication with Kali and Inger, in
the direction of the Webbe river, is
bringing up reinforcements from all
sides.
Col. Swayne is much hampered ow.
ing to the necessity of transporting
the wounded and water. He is retir-
ing on Bohotle. He asks that 600
further reliable troops be dispatched
from Berbera forthwith.

rhe Wealth Of the Bonanza KINGS.

Generally speaking, the wealth OF
"The Four Bonanza Kings" has been
much exaggerated. Basing their be-
lief on such movements in the stock
market as that of 1874, and the $40
dividends they once received monthly,
men have asserted that one or the 9TH
er of the four was worth $3.50, 600, 900.
But unless Mackay accumulated great
wealth after he left the Comstock
mine and the San Francisco stock mar
ket, and after his disastrous deal in
wheat, not one Of them was ever in
possession of $751; 0 900. But they
came up to some such figure as that
from nothing, and kept to the end a
large part of what they m" lie.
And with it all, neither California
nor Nevada can point to orc great in
stitution of art or education or charity
and say: That is an enduring monu-
ment to the Big Four."-E. H. Hamii-
ton, in the Era.

Transformed,

Sir William Vernon Harcourt on one
occasion took dinner on a British man
of-war, and, a storm coming up, was
persuaded by the captain, a very small
man, to occupy the latter's stateroom
for the night. 1t had been the cap
tain's custom, each morning, to take
a cup of coffee at 6 o'clock, as an eye
opener. The steward was not mott
fed Of the arrangement made for Sir
Williams comfort, and, as usual,
knocked at the captains door at 6 in
the morning. Receiving no reply, he
pushed open the door, as had been his
custom when the captain did not read
lily respond, and, as he entered, heard
Sir William snore and turn W heay-
lily in the berth. He dropped cup and
auc with a smash, and went tearing
to the surgeon, to whom he exclaimed:
"For heavens sake, sir, come to the
captains room! He's speechless, and
is swollen to ten times his natural

I have for years past been very sure to

In 1899 The Sangerlust celebrated its

about two years ago I caught .

settled into catarrh of the bronchial

In distress / was advised to try Peruna,
and although I had never used a patent

GAVE ALL TO HIS WIFE.

Zola's Will Requests His Possession
to His Marital Partner.
Paris, Oct. 21.-Zola's will is short,
consisting of not more than seven or
eight lines, and bears the date Of
1883. He says:
Il bequeath, in case of decease, to
well-loved wife the totally of my
fortune and rights"
Then there are a few references to
certain things to be ~bequeathed to
friends. This is almost the sub
stance Of the will. He had made al.
most an Identical testament in 1877,
but there was a slight flaw in it and
he tore it up and wrote the present
one. Nine. lola had made a similar
will, bequeathing all her possessions
to her husband in cas- Of her death.
The two wills had been placed in the
same envelope. When Nine. Zola's
will wa3 returned to her her grief was
