DisIocated Her Shoulder.

Mrs. Johanna Soderholm, Of Fergus
Falls. Mimi, fell and dislocated her
shoulder. She had a surgeon get 1t
back in place as soon as possible, but
1t was quite sor and panied her very
much. Her son mentioned that he had
seen Chamberlain's Pain Balm adver'
tised for sprains and soreness. and she
asked him to buy her a bottle of it.
which he did. 1t quickly relieved her
and enabled her to sleep, which she
had not done for several days. The son
was so much pleased with the relief
1t gave his mother that he has since
recommended it to many others. For

What They Are Saying and Doing
About It in Cheyenne, wyo.

To anyone in Laramie annoyed
with an aching back or IL OF the
consequents which follow in The wake
OF that far too prevalent trouble, kid
ney complaint, the following evidence
should prove of untold value:
Mr.. Leroy Grant, state auditor, with
offices in the state capitol, residence
2214 Capitol avenue, Cheyenne, Wyo.,
gave the following for publication in
the month of May, 1899. 1t is exactly
as Mr.. Grant expressed himself, and
should be doubly interesting when
confirmed in an interview consider
ably owe three years after it first ap-
peared in the Cheyenne papers. Mr..
Grant said: Il am not counting pub
licity when | state that Doan's Kidney
Pills were used in my family and
brought unequivocal benefit. When
there are so many preparations on the
market, all claiming especial merit, a
sufferer is in doubt as to which to Sc
lect. Basing my opinions on actual
facts, l advise anyone annoyed with
backache or weakened or overeXcited
kidneys to try Doan's Kidney Pills.
They will not be disappointed" In
the month of November, 1902, Mrs.
Leroy Grant confirmed the above as
follows: "Mr. Grant gave for publica-
ton in May, 1899, a statement about
Doan's Kidney Pills. During the three
years and a half which have passed
that statement has repeatedly ap-
peared in the Cheyenne papers, and
Mr.. Grant has never lost an oppor-
tunity Of corroborating it in personal
interviews. We have told a great
many people that dependence could
be placed on Doan's Kidney Pills, and
we know of quite a few cases where
the treatment brought decidedly sat.
isfactory results. l am pleased 20 re-
endorse the original statement made
by Mr.. Grant"

can be had right here in Laramie.

All Through Billiards.

This queer incident from
Paris. While playing at billiards one
evening recently In his house in Paris
NJ. Reichart hit a ball SO hard that It
bounded from the table and out of an
open window, falling through the glass
roof of a drawing room in the next
house and smashing a valuable Sevres
vase. The crash 80 alarmed an An.
CORA cat sleeping on the table close
by that the animal sprang up and
knocked over q lamp, which set fire to
some tapestry and necessitated the
calling out Of the brigade. NJ. Reich
art was engaged to the niece of the
invalid lady occupying the house in
which the damage was caused. The
commotion, however. had so disas.
trous effect on the old lady's nerves
that she died shortly afterwards. On
learning the indirect cause Of her
aunt's death the young lady refused
to marry M. Reichart. and the heirs
are now suing him for the damage
done.

A GOOD BILL TO KILL.

Senator Badgette of Weston county
will introduce a bill in the senate for
an act providing for district attorneys
In the several districts of the state.
AS the measure is reported to The Re-
publican, it will provide for a district
attorney at a salary of So, 900 per an
mum and a contingent of $500 per an
mum. Provision is made for a stem
ographer and the necessary etceteras.
In all probability the entire cost to
the state would foot up something like
$4,000 per annum, or more than the
present cost of the state supreme
court. This amount would not include
the assistant district attorneys. who
are understood to be included in the
bill.
While the state is not ready to as
sumo this great additional burden, the
matter of cost is not the most objec-
tionable feature of this proposed law.
1t has a tendency to centralize govern
ment and take away from the people
n OF their most sacred rights-the
right to choose their W officers of
the law. This Dill provides that the
district attorneys shall be appointed
by the governor, and not elected by
the people.
1t is a movement to take away from
the attorneys who have settled in the
small towns Of the outlying counties
OF the state that business which legit-
imately belongs to them and give it to
men who have already established
themselves In the larger cities and who
now have comfortable incomes.
under the present system the law
mas been administered in a very sat
lsfactory and credible manner. Lo-
cal attorneys are qualified to handle
the business OF the people without
waiting Tor some great legal light to
come into their midst. take the cream
OF their business and soar on to the
next county seat.

a law. The native trout are not
through spawning in May and the
brook trout begin spawning in Octo-
Der, SO that both these months can
very properly be excluded from the
open season. Mr.. Bristol loves the
sport of trout fishing and hence will
use every effort to secure the passage
of his bill. He should be given the
hearty endorsement of the sportsmen
OF the entire state.

The United States supreme court
has just handed down a decision that
will affect the standing of many per-
son who have obtained divorces I'M
der the laws of Wyoming. Prior to the
passage of the present state law it
was q common thing for parties desir-
ing a divorce to come to Wyoming,
live in the state for a period of SIX
months. obtain a divorce and then
again assume the marital yoke. The
supreme court holds that residence
obtained in this way does not amount
to residence, and that such divorces
are invalid. The case was taken up
from Massachusetts and the law in
question was the law of South Dakota.

Chicken Had One Friend

A resident OF Mount Pleasant con-
tributes the following chicken story. for
the truth OF which he vouches:
A pair of chickens were placed in the
back yard in the hopes that they would
aid in the destruction of the slugs. which
had become very troublesome.
All went well for a time. and bugs,
slugs, etc. became more and more
scarce as the chickens satisfied their
appetites. But there finally came time
when there was sudden and urgent de-
mand for chicken broth which caused
the death Of one Of the pair. The lone
illness OF the remaining chicken was
plainly manifest.
1t formed strong attachment for the
gentleman of the house. but for no one
else. and II would follow him about
whenever he appeared. trying as best
1t could to tell in chicken language its
pitiful story. It even allowed itself to

silver Dollars in Cremation.

The Washingtonian within the past
few weeks has received a silver dollar
or two in change in making purchases
at the department store. These coins
are scarce in washington. and arc

The superintendent Of the Chesapeake
and Potomac Telephone Company was
in The Times Office the other day. and
the conversation turned upon some of
the mistakes made by persons using
the telephone One day not long ago
a lawyer up in the Bond Building
wanted to talk with his friend Jones"
about a matter which concerned the
two. He called up Jones Office. and
was told that he was at home that
day. Looking again in the telephone
book the lawyer found, as he supposed.
Jones house number and rang the
phone. Shortly there was a feminine
answer at the other end of the wire.
The lawyer called:
who is that?"
This is Mrs. Jones'
Ian you tell me where your husband
is?''
There was an expression of disgust
and the receiver was hung up with a
bang. The lawyer did not know what
to make of it. but he saw Jones
the following day and explanations fol-
lowed. The Mrs. Jones who was at the
phone was his brothers widow. her
husband having been dead about four
years.
