His Last Hone Realized.

From the Sentinel, Gebo, Mont.
In the first opening Of Oklahoma to Set
tiers in 1889, the editor of this paper was
among the seekers after fortune who made
the big race one fine day in April. During
his travelling and afterwards his camping 6
upon his claim, he encountered much bad
weather, which, together with the heat,
gave him severe diarrhea which seemed
almost impossible to check, and in June
the case became 80 bad he expected to die.
OLe day one of his neighbors brought him
one bottle Of Chamberlain collie, cholera
and diarrhea remedy as last hope. A
big dose was given him while he was roll
ing on the ground in agony, and in few
minutes the dose was repeated. The good
effect of the medicine was soon noticed
and within an hour the patient was taking
his first sound sleep for fortnight. That
little bottle worked complete cure, and
he cannot help but feel grateful. The
season for bowel disorders being at hand
suggests this. Sold by Bamberg Pharmacy.

MISSING STENOCRAPHER
seen near NEWPORT

Pretty Lena King, a stenographer
whose sensational disappearance in
this city on January "a was one of
the leading questions of the writer,
has been seen in Spokane by at least
two of her former acquaintance
within the last three weeks.
One of these acquaintance said to-
day:
II saw the girl at Dutch Jake's pic
mic. She was with a man named
Charlie, and as soon as she saw me
made herself scarce.
There can be no mistake in the
identification, because prior to her
disappearance i saw her daily Fur
thermore. another man who knew her
told me of seeing the woman on the
streets few nights. 1 have good
reason to believe that the girl is liv-

SOMETHING ABOUT
The 2-MINUTE MARE

Built on graceful lines, a delicate
looking, girlish little thing, her eye
bright and her action hawklike in
that she is never perfectly at rest.
Lou Dillon, the fastest mare that ever
lived, is the object just now of great
er admiration than ever before fell
to the lot of a queen of the trotting
turf on account Of her wonderful
record yesterday.
Now s years of age, she was start
ed at the Chenille track last spring
for the first time In her life in a
public performance, and as she SKIM
med over the surface of the belt of
golden clay that Maud s. made IA
nous, it was apparent even to other
than experienced horsemen that this
petite product of California held
within herself far greater speed than
she had taken the trouble to display.
Lou Dillon is businesslike. True
gated. steady as a perfect piece Of
machinery, but showing rather the
poetry of motion than the mechanical
movement SO often praised and yet
SO little liked in a trotter.
Lou Milton, by Milton Medium, Lou
Dillon does not combine fashionable
lines Of breeding. From her dam
she inherits nothing. On her sire's
side comes plenty of speed, but the
Sidney family, though possessing
speed almost without limit, were re-
garded as lacking in endurance, and
hence were never popular producers.
Millard Sanders took her in charge
when he became trainer for the San
ia Rosa stock farm in April, 1902.
He found her speedy but wilfull. She
wanted to run away, and would have
tired herself to death had Willard
given her the way she wanted.
In July. last year. Sanders was
giving her miles around 2:12. but
her owners insisted that she be saw
ed for 1908.
In the winter one Of her owners
died 1t was then necessary to sell
the Santa Rosa stock farm string,
of C. X. g. Billings for s12.500. a
bargain price.
She was then placed in Billings

retaining a watchful eye over her.
