A Judiei us Inquiry

A we'll known travelling man who visits the drug trade says he has Ostt n heard druggists inquire of customers who asked for cough medicine, whether 1t was wanted for child or for an adult and if for child they almost invariatly ly recommend Chamberlain'S Cough Rem edy. The rrason for this is that they know there is DO danger from it and that it always cures. There is not the least danger in giving it, and for coughs, colds or croup it is unsurpassed.

who wants to see Rodey run, Is one

money, influence and brains, Catron
IL doubtless willing to put up in order
to crafty his delight for trouble
breeding. but Mr.. Rodey Is much too
heavy a load for this distinguished
ex.republican to assume alone.
Nothing is more certain than that
Frank and Tom Hubbell are work
Ing overtime to induce Rodey not to
run. They will support Andrews
and will see that the county rolls up
a big majority for the regular ticket.
The best friend Mr.. Rodey ever had
In New Mexico Is Sol Luna. He re-
NAMED his friend through the stormy
Albuquerque convention. He is still
his friend and he assures Mr.. Rodey
that IL will be political death for
him to run on an independent ticket;
that the movement is entirely in the
interest OF the democrats; that he
will forfeit the esteem and good will
of his best friends in the territory, il
actuated by spleen and a desire for
personal revenge he plays the baby
act and attempts TO ecure the cleo
ton Of a democratic delegate to con-
gress. Other good friends Of the
delegate have urged him for his own
sake not to take so farcical and fool
ish an action as to run for congress
on an independent ticket, because
the democrats talk nice to him and
tell him how shamefully he has been
treated by his party. The result is
that at the present writing the del
egate is again hating between two
opinins and it is believed that he
may decide to remain regular and if
he does not support Andrews for
congress that he will make no effort
to defeat him.
Expecting the aforesaid neon
s%equental Gales, it is difficult to
find a man in Albuquerque who does
not condemn Rodey. Among the
leaders, there is no fear that the can
didacy Of Rodey would place in ques-
ton the election of Andrews. The
general feeling appears to be that it
is regrettable that the delegate who
has worked so hard for the people of
the territory should make a fool Of
himself and at the same time place
himself beyond all hope of political
rehabilitation.

KANSAS CITY, Oct. S.-The sup

cipally beef steers, so that the weeks
supply was largely from the range
country. Prices were lower on most
grass stuff, both steers and she stuff,
but declines did not amount to more
than 10 to 90 cents. Shippers are
meeting with continually settling mar
kets, it seems, but the stuff could
not be forwarded to advantage last

A BURNING LAKE OF OIL.

Surplus Product of Wyoming Wells
 Burning-0ther Lakes Threatened.
 Lander, Wyo., July 1.-The keeper of the Belgo-American oil property, south east of Yellowstone, while burning sur plus oil that escaped from the wells there, lost control of the blaze, which swept down a small rivulet that com municates with a lake one hundred feet from the wells. Immediately vast column of dense smoke rolled into the air, while flames leaped hundreds of feet high.
 The burning like is in close touch with two more, even larger, and should the wind change, they, too, probably will catch fire. If the fire reaches these two lakes 1t will mean total loss of at least 100000 barrels of oil, as well as the destruction of all the ma chinery. derricks, etc. The gravest ap- prehension is felt.

 Tokio, July 7.-Operations of para mount importance are going on within the war zone, but the government sue ceeds in yelling them in almost abso- lute secrecy. Since the occupation of Dalny the government officials have been silent concerning conditions at Port Arthur. It is generally believed, however, that the Japanese army and navy are daily tightening their relent- less grip on the besieged city, and that la final assault, followed by the fall of the fortress, is now only a matter of weeks.
 It is known that engagements or va |rying importance are constantly occur ring on the hills surrounding the city. The fleet of Admiral Togo is in motion day and night and is frequently engag- Ted, but the forces and number of guns of the besiegers as well as their posi- tions, details of past operations and fu- ture plans, are secrets which probably will not be revealed until the final and decisive action.
 Fragmentary information from vari- ous sources, especially Chinese, reaches Japan, but it's publication here or send Ing 1t abroad is forbidden under severe penalty.
 Chefoo, July 7--N In the fighting which occurred on July for the pos session of one of the hills northeast of Port Arthur the Russians lost. accord ing to Chinese reports, 100 men killed and fifty wounded. Fifty Chinese were sent out to bring in the Russian dead and wounded.
 The Japanese, having occupied the second range of hills around Port Ar thur, are now massing men to march upon the Russian marine camp that commands the pass through the hills, (which Is directly back of Port Arthur. This camp is considered vital to the safety of the fortress, and it is guarded, according to the Chinese, by 10000 ma |rines and sailors. Tn the Chinese-Jap- anese war the Japanese occupied this camp for several days before they took possession of Port Arthur.

Miss Leila Darlington, of This City,

 The Hartford courant yesterday had the following dispatch from Madison, dated June 6:
 Miss Leila Darlington, daughter of U. B. Darlington of New Haven, and one of the most popular society young women in the Elm City, is hailed as a heroine. With her parents she is spending the season at the Darlington residence here.
 Yesterday afternoon, while seated on the veranda her attention was attract led by screams for help from one of their maids. who was bathing. There was an unusually rough sea and 8 strong undertow. and the maid had gone beyond her depth. Miss Caring ton, with great risk to herself, without removing any of her clothing, plunged into the water and swan to the rescue #of the maid. Both went down twice, but Miss Darlington pluckily clung to the maid and brought her to the shore in the presence of a large crowd. The maid was unconscious, but after two hours was resuscitated
