DONE AGAIN.
Local Bowler for the Third Consecu.
tive Time Hub 1t over the
Milexians.

NA1AOWA2h10s
On the Sunday leaf of the hotel re-
gister of the American appears the
following:
''Wm Mcconnell, H. Keenan,, Joe
Meyers, Peter Elliott, f. w. Stein, al
legged bowlers, Miles City,
This roster cons, flutes the team of
bowlers that arrived in Forsyth so un-
tremendously Sunday morning and
J, after spending the major part of the
day viewing the sights of real me-
tropolis and eating young turkey, en-
deavored TO do things tc the local de-
votees OF the popular game.
Play was begun at three O'Clock in
the afternoon and for awhile things
did not loom up over encouragingly for
the Forsythians, but in the third game
the home team got their remnants to-
.gether and the visitors were treated to
their usual .irubbing. The match
lacked enthusiasm as compared with
the previous ones, which was evinced
by the representative of the Yellow
stone Journal, who was supposed 10
oversee the pin setting for the Miles
ia1e, going to sleep and falling into
the pit, but the heroi; efforts of a pin
setter rescued the Young man from
, the perilious position by dragging him
out and tanning him with a pin.
This is the way he relates matters
concerning the contest to his readers:
lin the words of the poet, the Miles
City alleged bowling team had better
80 way back and sit down. AS ten
pin players they appear to be simply
as lamb to the slaughter. There is
no excuse in the world for their defeat
by Forsyth-they were simply out
played. If so-and-so had made better
scores they would have won No doub
in the world about that. But they
didn't make them and Forsyth did
make them and there is the whole sto-
~. Miles made Il good start. They
finished TIE first game Is pins ahead.
AT the end of the second Forsyth had
third Forsyth was 46 in the lead.
Miles reduced this to Is at the end of
the fourth, but the fatal fifth, when
most people were expecting Elliott or
some one to break loose and go to
smashing things, for Forsyth did not
expect their team to win, with one ex-
ception, keenan,, the whole Miles CITY
''aggravation" went down the shaft
'kerplunk" like an elevator accident
and landed at the bottom with an ac-
cumulation of 100 pins on top of them.
Humorously inclined people occasion
ally say man would probably enjoy
hanging if he could get used to it. On
the same theory the Miles City bowl
ers will be an eternal fountain of de-
light apparently to their sympathizers
and abettors.''

whole body is upset the moment that any
trouble arises from indigestion. The blood
is Immediately affected and, in an un-
healthy state, is open to attacks from
disease germs of all kinds.
The FIRST care OF every sensible person
should be to see that the digestive organs
are always in good condition. Slight all
mcnts develope into dypepsia, chronic in
digestion, constipation, and later the kid
neyS and liver are affected.
When symptoms OF indigestion appear,
the best known remedy is Blood Wine. 1t
is a pure tonic, with no oniateS or wine
in its composition. 1t acts Immediately
and its effects are lasting and strengthen

Question of Bank Tax to Be Further
Contested.

A motion for new trial has been made
by Attorney Jonathan Ross in the case
of the State W. The Franklin County
Savings Pank & Trust Co., which involv s
the question of whether the tax of 40 of
one per cent on commercial deposits sub
icct TO check held by trust oomplnlcs
and savings banks and by trust companies
shall be paid by the bank or whether the
whole amount shall he returned by the
individual depostor FOR taxation.
By n recent decision of the Supreme
Court the contention of State Tax Com
missioner j. f.. Cushman that the banks
should ray the tax was upheld and an
amount of 81, S46.7 was involved in the six
banks that refused to pay.
The grounds on which the motion for
q new trial is made are substantially as
follows:

52S, 5S3 and 5S4 Vermont Statutes is am

CIGARS STOLEN.
Crystal Pharmacy Entered by Burglar.
Earlv SUNDAY MORNING.

Burglars entered the Crystal pharmacy
at an early hour Sunday morning and,
although the exact amount of their booty
cannot be determined, they secured about
50 in money and a quantity of cigars.
Nothing in the store was disturbed or dis
arranged. with the exception of the cigar
case and the Yale clock. The lock on the
latter was twisted but no serious damage
was done.
The entrance to the store was effected
from the rear and was evidently done by
some one familiar with the surroundings
The gate OH Main street between the phar
macy and the works of the Crystal Confcc-
tionery company was broken. The thief
then took a ladder from the premises of
the Confectionery company and placed 1t
at window in the office of the pharmacy
with the evident intention of ascertaining
whether or not the store was occupied for
no marks could be discovered that showed
efforts to raise the window. A door lead
ing to a cellar occupied by the Confection-
cry company was then forced and another
door leading to the basement Of the phar-
deavor a fiat iron bar was used to force
the lock and when the door opened the bar
dropped to the floor. The burglar then
made his way to the store.
| The theft probably took place between
$3.50 and o'clock, for at about that time,
Albert Percy, who occupies rooms in the
Woodbury. 81 Walker block, heard a noise
in the basement. but suspecting nothing
made no investigation. The police are at
work on the case.

Letter to William Smith OF
BurlinutOn. VI.

Dear Sir: Suppose you are going to
paint a house and ask all the painters
there are within reach to bid on it-vou
to furnish materials, they to say what to
use. and charge for time and the know
how.
How many will use the same paint? They
generally, will compound their own paints.
There will be no two alike. And this is
the end of the notion that painters know
how to make paint.
They know how to put on paint on: and
that Is their business.
They ought to know what to buy How
many OF them know what to buy?
blacksmith buys nails, because better
shoes and nails than he can make are
made for less than he can make them for
by aobinery. Wagonmakers buy wheels
because better wheels than they can make
are made for less than they can make
them for-by machinery.
Why should a painter make his own
pa int. when he can buy better for less:
We take the risk of how it turns out. be-
sides. Devoe lead and zinc is the paint;
lasts twice as long as the average painter :
pant-lead and oil.
Yours truly,
Sc +. w. DEVOE & co.

EXPERIMENTS IN HYPNOTISM.
Physicians and Medical Students Spend
An Hour with Pauline.

At the request of a number of students
at the Medical college Pauline, the hypno-
fist and mind reader who has been giving
an entertainment at the Opera House dur
ing the week past. met body of students
and physicians, Saturday morning at his
room in the Hotel Burlington and p ,rfor-
Ned & number of hypnotic tests. TIL, y
were somewhat different from those shown
on the stage and were along the line Of
particular interest to the medical profess
sion.
The men met in an informal way and
after pleasantly greeting the visitors Paul
inc explained some OF the effects of hypno-
tism lie said he was unable to expl in
the origin of hypnotism. as it was shrouded
in mystery. He could tell results that
could be accomplished and what would
be accomplished and what should be done
to secure those results.
A subject who travels with Pauline. was
then introduced and before any tests W re
made his pulse was taken, the registration
being 1Oi. Pauline then induced partial
hypnotic state and the purse al once drop
ped to 90. A deep sleep followed and the
pulse dropped to 81
The experiment of increasing the pulse
beats was then tried Pauline sugscsted
to the sleeper that he was on railroad
track and that train was rapidly ap-
.proaching and that he could not move from
the track. Under the supposed excitement
the pulse of the subject jumped to les.
The temperature of the subject WAS
taken and was found to be 9S.2. An at
tempt to increase it was made by suS-
gcstion to the subject that he was suffer
ing from "A fever. The temperature in
creased to 90 and a fraction and the sub
iects face became flushed and heated.
The subjects right arm was then made
rigid and "A long pin was thrust entirely
through the right hand so that it pro-
trudcd from each side No motion was
made by the subject that indicated the
slightest sensation. either when the pin
was thrust in or pulled out. There was
no evidence of blood. Attempts were made
by the visitors to bend the rigid arm but
they were IN vain.
A number of other tests of the move
ment of voluntary and involuntary mus
cles were made. During the entire hour
that the tests were in progress the V s-
tors were privileged to examine the sub
ject and MAKE any tests they chose.
At the close Pauline was thanked by
every man present and everyone expressed
