that of a sheep herder. Bauer told
the police he had walked all the way

sole purpose of having an interview
with the president. 1t had required a
years time to make the trip, he de-

Acting Sanitary Officer Hoover was

Finally one day a detachment of the
surveyors was pursued by Indians and
escaped by hard riding straight toward
the top of the range. When the pur-
suit ended they were on Sherman hill
and while they rested one of the en-

driven them a long ways out of their
path, but that he believed they had
forced them W the only pass of that
region suitable for a railroad line.
The engineers later investigated the
pass and found that such was the case
and the building of the first overland

southern and central Wyoming stock

and those who did not feed lost from Is

he fed heavily all winter and lost 6

stockmen to ship close and run only
stock that could be fed. Had it not

Danger Of Colds and Grip.

The greatest danger from colds and
grip is their resulting in pneumonia. II
reasonable care is used. however, and
C~hamberlain's Cough Remedy taken,
all danger will be avoided. Among the
tent of thousands who have used this
remedy for these diseases we have yet
to learn Of a single case having result
ed in pneumonia, which shows con
clusively that 1t is a certain proven
tive of that dangerous disease. 1t will

Three years and a half have passed

have noticed it in our papers repeated

ion discussed the item contained
therein and also the remedy l recon-
mended, namely, Doan's Kidney Pills.
A course Of the treatment taken at the
time stopped backache and other in
cidentals which always accompany
kidney complaint, and although have
had slight attacks during the interval
an appeal on such occasions to Doan's
Kidney Pills prevented them from be-
coming complicated. l advise others
suffering from their back OF kidneys
to procure Doan's Kidney Pills and

WITH ENBEZZLEMENT NoLLIED.
Suit Pending i'm Superior Court Ex-
peeled tn SETTLE Points at Issue Be-
tween Bradley Heirs.

The affidavit charging George " Cater
son with embezzlement was nollied yester-
day by Judge Afford on motion of Prose-
cutor Ruchelshaus. John s. Duncan, who
had been retained TO assist the prosecution,
Joined the prosecutor in his statement that
case could not be made against the de-
feadant.
The charges against Catterson were pre-
ferred by Mrs Robert Bradley, formerly
Miss Ida Nail. Miss Nail was the ward
OF the late James Bradley and received
the interest on $4,000 worth of bonds held
in trust by Catterson. Upon the death of
her guardian Miss Nail claimed the bonds
and Catterson disputed her ownership, as
no provision had been made for their trans
fer.
The heirs Of the Bradley estate filed a
petition and Catterson was discharged as
executor OF the estate and full account
ing was demanded. 1t was over the 500
900 of bonds that were not accounted for
satisfactorily that the prosecution was be-
gun.
suit Is now pending in the Superior
court to settle the points at issue between
Miss Nail. Catterson and the heirs of the
Bradley estate. Since the filing of the
civil suit, however, Miss Nail has become
the wife OF Robert Bradley. a nephew of
James Bradley. and IL is likely that the
controversy will be settled out of court
