Two women gamblers put the larg- est gambling place in Houston out of business July 4th. They appeared at the gambling house at 10 o'clock. The place was crowded, and they made a stir. They began operations at the crap tables, playing with success. They then staked gold pieces, of which they seemed to have an unlimited quantity, on roulette, quitting the game about $4OO to the good. They ended up at faro, playing the limit. After an hours play they had won all the mon- ey in sight, breaking the bank and causing the proprietor to close down for the night. They won in excess of SIP, 900 at faro. After putting the bank out of business they left the place and were driven to the Grand Central station, where the boarded a westbOund train.

Very Remarkable Cure of DtaSrhoeA.
 "About six years ago, for the first time in my life, had 8 sudden and severe attack of diarrhOea," says Mrs. Alice Miller, of Morgan, Texas. ''I got temporary relief, but it came back again and again, and for six years I have suffered more misery and agony than I can tell. It was worse than death. My husband spent hundreds of dollars for physicians prescrip- tions and treatment, without avail. Finally we moved to BOsque county, our present home, and one day hap pened to see an advertisement of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di- arrhoea Remedy, with testimonial of man who had been cured by it. The case was so similar to my own that concluded to try the remedy. The re- suit was wonderful. I could hardly realize that was we'll again, or be- lieve that it could be so after having suffered so long, but that one bottle of medicine, costing but few cents, cured me-" For sale by all druggists.

COCONINO COUNTY CUARTEL
Contains Seven Prisoners. Whom Business txiIencies Forbade Enleyln1 Mllton's
 Glorious Celebration.

Back in Connecticut they have a war-story of Senator Joe Hawley, who was at that time editor of the Hartford Courier, and whose penmanship was something frightful.
 At one time during the war Hawley learned that one of his compositOrs had enlisted, and called him into his office and praised him for his patriot ism. The soldier stood it for awhile, and then broke out !:
 Patriotism is all right, Mir. Haw- ley, but it isn't exactly that. I'll tell you why I'm going. I've worked on the Courant for three years, and I've never set line of your copy that l didn't have to guess at some part oi it, and I've made up my mind that I'd blamed sight rather be shot than set any more of it."
 No diagram goes with this story as explaining the significance of the wri- ter's going to jail Tuesday, but he did.
 Business at the jail was duller than Fourth of July time generally is. Bob Walker, the pleasant deputy, was making desperate effort to give an imitation of man doing some work on typewriter in the pleasant office room, and was not successful even to his own satisfaction. Sheriff Johnson was busy at the courthouse, but re- turned before the writer got out. Both gentlemen are pleasant fellows, and treat the prisoners in their care as we'll as is consistent with discipline.
 The prisoners are well-fed and we'll cared for-too we'll cared for they themselves naturally conclude when tempted to try any monkey" busi- ness. The jail is, naturally, gloomy on the inside, and although kept clean and wholesome, is not exactly the place in which one would wish to en- joy Fourth of July celebration.
 There are seven prisoners at pres ent confined in the jail, six awaiting trial, 2 for rowing with trainmen, at Williams, l for hOrse-stealing, l white man, l negro and l Mexican for as- sault with deadly weapon, and the seventh is serving a 2OO-day sentence, for an offense committed at Williams.
 Anyone wishing good, quiet board ing-hOuse-no children allowed-is cheerfully recommended to that of Messrs. Johnson & Walker. One thing in it's favor, even though you are known not to be strictly honest, you will not be required to pay in ad- vance.
