A GREAT many remedies TO iempor-
~ arilyreliev catarrh have been devised
n from time to time. such as sprays.
snuffs, creams and other local applications,
but, as rule the medical profession has
little or no enthusiasm in the treatment
pf caiarrh.
1t is generally pronounced by them to be
incurable.
1t therefore created a great sensation in
medical circles when Dr. Hartman an
nouncei ,ha, he had devised compound
which would cure catarrh permanently.
The remedy was named Peruna and il. a
short time became known to thousands OF
catarrh sufferers north. south. east and west.
Letters iestifying to the fact that Peruna
is 4 radical cure for catarrh began to pour
in from all directions.
Thousands of such letters are on file in
the Office of The Peruna Medicine Co.

FlREMEN's PROMPT WORK.
Efficient Service Prevents Large De-
struction OF Property.

Wednesday morning at 3 o'clock an
alarm called the fire department to
the south side, where their services
were required in extinguishing fire
that had started in a lot Of frame
shanties in the alley of the block
bounded by Second and Third ave-
nues, south, and Twenty-eighth and
Twenty-ninth streets. One of the
structures, barn, in which it is be.
lieved the fire originated, was totally
destroyed, while two others were so
badly gutted as to render them al
most worthless
The shack that burned down was
formerly occupied as a carpenter
shop by R. Lavigne, while one OF
those damaged was still SO occupied
by Ole Nelson. In addition to the
larger of the structures several out
houses and the fence on the east side
of the alley were badly scorched. The
total loss is estimated at about $780,
How the fire started is not known,
but the suposition is that it was the
result of design. In the barn destroy
ed COW was kept, but it was found
that she had been removed, some
say before the fire began, while others
claim she was liberated shortly be.
fore the department arrived.
1t was only by hard work that the
fire was confined to the small area
it covered, as all of the surrounding
buildings are of frame and because
of the dry weather in highly inflam-
I able condition. Some difficulty was
! experienced in securing water from
one of the two hydrants used, fact
that caused considerable delay in

ZlDMAiR GUILTY. OF FIRST DE-
GREE MURDER.
He SHOWS NO EMOTION
Prisoner Hears Verdict Read With
Apparent Unconcern-Will
Move for Rehearing.

Livingston. July 16-Martin Zid-
mair is again in the shadow of the
gallows. The jury which heard the
evidence in his case returned ver-
dict of guilty OF murder in the nrst
degree this morning. Judge frank
Henry will pass sentence next Tues
day.
The jury was out about IL hours,
having retired with the case at 10
o'clock last evening. The trial began
last Monday, and had been prosecuted
vigorously since.
A large crowd of spectators was
present in Judge Henrys court room
when the jury returned it's verdict
this morning. Half an hour before
the jury was ushered in it was pretty
generally known that verdict had
been reached, and many persons went
to the court room.
Zidmair showed no emotion what
ever when the clerk OF the court read
the verdict. To all appearances he
was not interested in the outcome.
The trial just ended was the second
in which Zidmair was defendant. He
was charged with having shot and
killed George Reider on Trail creek
two years ago last April. He was
convicted of murder in the first de-
gree on his first trial and sentenced
, to be hanged. He was later granted
a new trial on errors OF the lower
court.
1t is understood that his counsel
will move for new trial, and that
an appeal will be taken, if an order
denying the new trial is made

"No GOTTA DE PAPE."
Why Game Warden Smith Didn't Get
His Man.

Sheriff Savage returned yesterday
from trip to Glendive and Colgate,
where he accompanied Deputy Game
Warden Smith to help him arrest an
Italian railroad laborer, wanted for
killing prairie chicken, says the
Yellowstone Journal.
The rest of the gang threatened
Smith when he attempted to make
the arrest alone The "dagos'' caught
onto the fact that Smitl had no war
rant and when he tried to make the
arrest the gang said, you no gotta

The man wanted skipped out while
Smith returned to Miles City, but
the boss of the crew says he will be
back about payday, and they will get
him then.

"Two-DoT" WILSON.
Well Known Cattle Man in Failing
Health.

Sam McGregor, superintendent of
the Two Dot ranch, accompanied by
his wife, was in the city for a few
days this week on business and pleas

Mr.. McGregor says that the Two Dot
cattle which have heretofore ranged
in Sweet Grass and Meagher counties
have been transferred to a new range
along the Musselshell and its tribu-
taries, where they will range hereaf-
ter. He says that Mr.. Wilson contin-

Mrs. Wilson was stricken with what
is believed to be paralysis in both
arms and has been removed to White
Sulphur Springs for treatment. Mr..
Wilson accompanied her.
