WILL CURE LOCK JAW.

A telegram from Buffalo says: A cure for tetanus has been found in the formalin compound, according to phy- sicians here. Since January a series of experiments mas been performed in the Maryland Veterinary Hospital. These experiments have proved that tetanus may be cured by formalin. and it is the opinion that the cure may be applied to man with the same result.
 The subject for treatment was a magnificent thoroughbred horse. Lockiaw resulted from an injured eye. Dr. Spranklin first injected into the iugular vein of the animal the formalin compound. Within five hours the animal which was thought to be dying. revived. aud its improve ment was marked for three days, when it appeared again to be dying. The solution was injected a second time. and within Gte hours the same i'm provement lat had marked the first injection V IS noticed.
 Later the animal had another re- lapse, and a third injection of the same size was used. Since then there has been no more trouble, and the animal is now declared to be entirely cured.

Our territorial legislature has over looked an opportunity to pass another bill. It has succeeded in getting two up to the governor for his consider ation. One made liberal appropri- ation to members to pay their ex- penses on junketing trip while the other appropriated s3GO for postage stamps for their use. The Missouri legislature has just passed bill ap- propriating S457.60 to supply foun- tain pens to its members. Now if the Arizona legislature would pass a bill donating a fountain pen to each of its members it would help them to use up the postage stamps by writing letters with the pens. By all means the legislature should provide toun- tain pens for its members.

Physicians are calling attention to the fact that influenza or grip has come to stay. In the larger cities there has been a marked increase in diseases affecting the organs oi respiration, which increase IS attributed to the prevalence of influ- enza. Persons who are recovering from grip or influenza are in a weak condition and peculiarly liable to pulmonary dis ease.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures coughs, bronchitis, lung vtroubleD and other diseases of the organs of res piration. IL is the best tonic medicine for those whose strength and vitality have been exhausted by an attack of grip.
 It purities the blood, cleansing it of the poisonous accumulations which breed and feed disease. It gives increased ac- tivity to the blood-making glands, and so increases the supply of pure blood, rich with the red corpuscles of health.
 "A word for your Golden Medical Disoov. cry" writes Mrs. E. A. Bender. of Keene. as family medicine for more than four wears. As cough remedy and blood purifier there is noth ns better, and after having the grip Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is just the right medicine for complete braciug up."
 Accept no substitute for rGolden Med ical Discovery" There IS nothing viust as good " for diseases of the stomach, blood, and lungs
 The sluggish liver Is made active by the use of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.

A complete effacement of the hazing
 at the naval academy might help to get officers for the future navy, so says the Cincinnati Enquirer, and We would add, such an effacement would also guarantee better officers, because big fellows who abuse little fellows have a streak of cowardice somewhere in their make up. and that's not a good streak to have in the material of which American naval officers are made. The government should spare no pains to wipe it out. que Democrat.

THE LEGISLATURE
Felony Committed in the Council By the Theft of a BiIl-0ther
 Thefts.
Both Houses Make a Visit to the Tempe Normal School During
 the Afternoon.

The legislature does not show any
 signs of breaking its record in law
 making-the passing of one bill every
 sixteen days. That was its record
 during the first thirty-two days ses
 sion and the progress being made since
 it does not look as though the next sixteen days would see another bill
 ready to go to the governor.
 When house bill 3l was called for
 in the council on Tuesday for consid- eration the discovery was made that the bill had been stolen. The an nouncement of the theft of this bill brought out further announcement that two other bills and the journal of the assistant chief clerk had also been stolen since the opening of the ses- sion.
 A previous legislature having had a similar experience in having bills stolen passed law making it felony to steal legislative bill While the law as passed did not provide that the thief had to be caught before being convicted, this is the case and there is little probability of the felon being convicted who stolei these bills. In the house the committee on counties and county boundaries reported un- favorably upon Marlar's bill concern ing boards of supervisors and later the bill was indefinitely postponed. It provided for the election of five su- pervisors in counties of certain class and of three in others. The counties were to be divided into supervisor dis tricts and the elections were to be by districts. All road districts were to be abolished along with the office of road overseer. The supervisors of the various districts were to discharge the duties hitherto devolving upon the overseers and the only remuneration for this work was to be the mileage The compensation of supervisors was to be 8 for each meeting and mile age but the total compensation could not exceed $500 year.
 Bills were introduced by Ingalls, to protect fish in rivers by putting wire netting over the heads of canals and by Marian, providing for the display of the American flag over school houses and for patriotic cele- brations by the schools on Washing -on's birthday and other holidays.
 The council adopted ihe house me norial protesting against ceding a strip of Arizona to Utah.

cheering Tn these climatic changes, MI for with the return of cold weather, VI all the disagreeable symptoms of Catarrh appear: binding headaches, dizziness, a stuffy feeling about the nose that makes breathing difficult, chest pains, and as the disease progresses, a discharge of nauseat- ing matter from the throat and nose keeps one continually hawking and splitting.
 Catarrh is most disgusting disease. The foul mucous secretions that are con- stantly dropping back into the stomach contaminate and poison the blood and ic distributed throughout the body, and il then becomes a deep-seated, systemic. persistent disease that must be treated through the blood, for 1t is beyond the reach of sprays, washes, powders or ex- ternal treatmt mtnt of any kind.
