His Last Hope Realized.
From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.

In the first opening Of Oklahoma
to settlers in 1889, the editor OF this
pr per was among the many seekers
after fortune who made the big race
one fine day in April. During his
travelling about and afterwards his
camping upon his claim, he encount-
cred much bad water, which, together
with the severe heat, gave him a very
severe diarahoea which it seemed al
most impossible to check, and along
in June the case became so bad he ex-
pected 20 die. One day one of his
neighbors brought him ono small bot
tie of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy as a last hope.
A big dose Was given him while he
was rolling about on the ground in
great agony, and in a few minutes the
dose was repeated. The good effect OF
the mediciue was 500 noticed and
within an hour the patient was taking
his first sound sleep in a fortnight.
That one little bottle worked a COM
plete cure, and he cannot help but
feel grateful. The season for bowel
disorders being at hand suggests this
item. For sale by the Horton Co.

A Handsome Textile.

@. H. Kistler. local manager Of the
Knight. Campbell Music company, rs-
csived q very handsome zarrappe, or
shawl, from an American friend At
Leon, Mexico, - souvenir Of the
Christmas holidays. It is OF native
manufacture and was made for the
citizens Of Leon. who had planned to
present it to President Porfirio Diax on
the occasion OF n contemplated trip to
that city. Owing to n change in his
arrangements President Diaz did not
visit Leon as was expected and the
zarrsppe was purchased by Mr.. Kistier's
friend and forwarded to the latter with
the seasons compliments. II is woven
In red, white and green, the national
colors Of Mexico, and shows the coat OF
arms Of the republic in the center.
How much 1t is worth is difficult to
estimate, but its value is probably
$3.50 in the coinage OF Mexico, as IL is
hand woven and there is an almost in
conceivable amount of skill and labor
represented in its fabrication. 1t is
hard for one who has never been In
Mexico to understand the Importance
OF the Zerrappe to the people Of that
country. 1t 10 universally worn by the
humbre, or peon, class in lieu OF coat
or Jacket, and is used for Thousand

working for fifty cents day, will

his FAREWELL 4 & / i SERMON.
Rev. H.B. Cook Greeted With An
Immense Audience at The
First N. e. Church Last
Sunday Morning.

Sunday Morning.
The FRS. Methodist church was hllsd
20 itsf utmost capacity last Sunday
morning BY an audience intent upon
listening to the vaiedictory 81 Rev. H
b. Cook, who recently resigned his
pulpit here to enter upon the pastorate
Of the High street n. e. church ~
Binghampton, New York. Rev. Cook
was personally and ministerially popu-
lar among I'll classes OF people in Canon
City and the outpouring last Sunday
moiuing ives Indicative Of the esteem
in which he is held BY his own densmi-
nation, as well as BY the adherents Of
other churches.
! Rev. Cook spoke at length Of his
admiration for the people Of Canon
City and stated that the reason which
impelled his resignation was the desire
TO be near his aged parents. who re-
garded him as their mainstay In their
declining years. Binghampion is in
the conference in which Rev. Cook be-
gan his ministry and In returning to
that city he goes back to the scenes Of
his youth. where most Of his relatives
are living.
Rev. Cook stated that the co-opera-
tion and helpfulness Of the congregs-
tion here had been . strong incentive
to him in his work, and that much Of
what had been accomplished in the
way OF church history had been due to
the efforts of the isity. The seal Of
the membership to promote the welfare
Of the First Methodist church was an
augury Of its continued growth along
both spiritual and material lines and
the speaker predicted that the progress
which had been made under his super
vision would be accelerated under his
successor.
Rev. Cook said that his relation with
the people Of Canon City had been
cordill in the extreme and that they
would always occupy . large place In
his affections. The religious. social
and intellectual atmosphere combined
TO render Canon City an IDEAL place Of
residence and Rev. Cook asserted that
he knew Of no more delightful COM
nun,ty to live in anywhere and that II
there were no other Considerations
involved he would not leave here under
any circumstances.
Rev. Cook served As pastor Of the
First Methodist church in this city for
. period OF three jean and four
months, and during that time an ad-
vance was made In all OF it's enterprises
unknown In Its annals. The gain In
church membership was large and an
impulse has been given to II. activities
that cannot fail to rebound to its
future influence and prosperity. The
