Volcanic BruptiOnS
In Central America.

CITY OF MEXICO, October 81
There Is no little CONSERVATION felt
by the inhabitants of many towns in
| the remote south country on account
of showers of ashes falling in the ex.

| capital of the State of Tabasco, as far
| north as Salina Cruz. 1t is believed
that hill near Palenque, where there
is great prehistoric city in ruins,
has suddenly been transformed into
an active volcano.
The ashes falling at Palenque have
hidden the sun, and also at Comitan,
and the people are panic stricken. Pa
lenque is the center of the disturb
ance, as the burning mountain Is said
to be near there. There is some anx-
iety felt for Chiapas.

opinion is that all of this is part
of the general awakening of volcanic
forces in the West Indies and Cen
trail America.
NEW YORK, October 2S-A cable
to the Herald from Guatemala CITY
says: The volcano of Santa Maria is
IN still greater eruption There are
serious earthquake shocks through
out Guatemala. The volcano has
thrown deep mantle of ashes upon
the town of Quezaltenango, which
has been partly built since the earth
quakes of April, and upon the town
OF Mezantenango. The volcano is
near both these places.
All towns, villages and plantations
near the volcano are abandoned and
the residents are fleeing. The entire
republic is shaken by the seismic dis
turbances. Guatemala City, although
more than one hundred miles from
Santa Maria, hears the crater's con-
tinuous terrible laundering. The
eruption of Santa Maria volcano must
be tremendous, as it is heard $50
miles away. The volcano has been
extinct for centuries.

chas. Thompson Pleads Guilty to Rob.
berry and is Sentenced.

Zach MCGEE and Chas. Thompson
were arrested last Wednesday even
ing on the complaint of j. c. Corbitt,
who charged them with robbing Chas.
Preston, gentle shepherd, of all his
valuables. Preston had drifted into
town with the laudable intention of
having a good time and proceeded to
fulfill his intentions to the best of his
ability.
While under the influence of liquor
he was relieved of SIS in cash and a
watch and chain by Thompson and it
was alleged McGee. Preston left
town in order to make another stake
and in the interests of justice ]. G.
Corbitt swore out complaint charg.
ing Thompson and MCGEE with TAX
ing the valuables.
MCGEE plead not guilty on being
taken before Justice Mcfarland and
was released on 81 900 bonds, while
i thompson TOOK the statutory time TO
make his plea, and on the time ap-
pointed plead guilty and was sent to
the district court for sentence. On
Monday he was taken before Judge
Cheadle and on his waving all pre-.
liminaries was sentenced to serve one
year in the state prison. McGee was
tried in the justice court on Monday
morning and owing to the paucity OF
evidence his case was dismissed.

Bass got word to Sam that he had sad
died and tied a famous race horse,
Irish Nell. to bush at the back OF
the corral. Larson asked permission
of the officer to remove his handouts
and step back to the corral before
they started for Chinook. Lund allow
ed him to do so. Almost immediate
ly Davis ran around to the front gate
and slammed II and gave an alarm to
attract the officer to the front. As
the officer stepped to the front door
Larson mounted the race horse and
was off like a fash and before Mr..
Lund could get a shot at him he was
out of range and out OF sight. Lund's
horse was too tired for pursuit and
the only thing left for him to do was
to arrest Davis and come home. Dav-
is is at Deer Lodge now serving his
sentence for assisting prisoner. He
will be out about the first of next
year.
After that the officers wanted Lar
son worse than ever, and it so hap
pened that the mounted police ran
across him and after hot little fight
lodged him in the Jail at Maple creek.
That was about the lst of last Octo-
ber. On the evening Of the 22nd one
OF the guards went into his cell to
take him his supper and Larson made
dive for him, hustled him and ran
out, stocking footed and under fierce
fire from the other guards. That
night he managed to steal three horses
from the livery stable at Maple creek
and made his escape.
No picture has ever been taken of
Larson. but the following is the Off
cial description sent out to all Off

Height. feet 10 inches; weight. 100
pounds; age. 26; light brown hair,

While no one knows how many
horses Sam took since his escape from
Maple creek until his death it is
known that he stole several. notably
good one with a new saddle from
the ranch of James Wright on Pig
con creek early in the evening of Oc'
tober 24th, or two days after his SEN
sational escape.

To KILL THE pANpRUFF GERM
Is the Only Possible Way of Having
a Permanent Cure.

If you see woman or a man with
luxuriant glossy hair you may be sure
neither has dandruff to amount to
anything. In nearly every case where
women and men have thin, brittle
hair they owe it to dandruff. There
are hundreds of preparations that
claim" to cure dandruff, but not one
but Newbro's Herpicide tells you that
dandruff is the result of germ bur-
rowing into the scalp, and that per-
manent cure of dandruff and its con-
sequent falling and badness can only
be had by killing the germ; and there
ic no other preparation that will de-
5troy that germ but Newbro's Herpi-
eide. Destroy the cause you remove

down to that country on a diamond
hunt with a party from Utica. Mr.,
Divers was Just behind the times from
the start and missed Mr.. Abbott both
at Utica, Lewistown and Gilt Edge
by reason of the fact that Abbott had
a decided inclination to return to
Utica before he had filled his pockets
with diamonds as the result Of his
trip.
Constable Divers being Of very
tenacious nature hated to quit and
followed the party through the DESC
late wastes of the bad lands and
eventually caught up with them near
Crooked creek. where he was vel
coined as a long lost brother, owing
to the fact that Mr.. Abbott was well
aware that the time OF the return OF
the summons had expired.
The constable lost no time in serv.

that they were void owing to the time

constant applause followed his move
ments. and though he had not been
placed in nomination. a couple OF del
egates persisted in voting for him.
The Ohio men saw that Sherman's
chances were quite hopeless, and on
the sixth ballot they began throwing
their votes to Mckinley. It looked
like the starting Of a landslide. He
had only to sit still, and the prize
would drop into his hands. He had
only to utter an equivocal protest,
and the result would probably be the
same. But there was nothing equiv
ocal about William Mckinley. On
the one side was his loyalty to Sher-
nan, his personal honor; on the 9TH
err the presidency of the United
States. His choice was made with
out an instant Of hesitation. He in
terrupted the roll call and. standing
or a chair at the end of the aisle. he
made one Of the best speeches of his
life. 1t could not have been premedi-
tated, for he could not have foreseen
the emergency. He said;
IL am here as one of the chosen
representatives of my state. am
here by resolution of the Republican
state convention, commanding me to
cast my vote for John Sherman for
president, and to use every worthy
endeavor to secure his nomination.

Major Mckinley prevailed and
there was no stampede. He voted

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition of the Eustachiag
Tube. When this tube gets infiamed
you have rumbling sound or imper-
feet hearing, and when it is entirely
closed deafness is the result, and un-
less the inflammation can be taken

The roads here are in n very bad con-

beautiful land to the country of queues

of the county may be appropriately
called the "Bridgelcss Settlement" You
may travel miles and swim or jump your
