turned his attention to Dunn and spoke
of the public examiners report. Ray
Jones was nominated within three weeks
after he had been convicted in the Unit

from the people of the state almost 81

Mr.. McDermott made an appeal for re-
publican votes for the democratic ticket.

Of Birds and Animals.
From Waduesdav's DailV

From Wednesdays Daily.
The public library board held regular
meeting last night, and voted to buy
list of books, including 'Younk Folks
Literature" comprising twenty volumes.
The matter of receiving donations OF
birds and animals from local hunters to
start a collection was talked over, and
the proposition of j. B. Bean of Nicollet
to sell his to the city was preached
again. 1t was stated that some of the
members of the board have seen the col
lection, and that Mr.. Bean desires that
the other members see it. Those who
have not seen it will do so before the
next meeting. The matter will probably
be brought up again then.
The committee on library, rules and
regulations expects to be prepared at
the next meeting to report some amend
ments. Some have already been reported
upon and adopted.

Mrs. Miller Tells How She Succeeded

Recovering Lost Interest in Life,
Others May Profit.
For eight years." says Mrs. Mollie
e. Miller, of Wilmington, Ohio, 60 suf-
fered from dizziness and palpitation of
the heart, and after the birth of my little
girl five years ago remained very weak.
was nervous, down-hearted and could
not sleep. Every month I lost full
week in prostration that left me scarcely
strength enough to drag myself around
the house. Whenever. that time ap.
preached it always filled me with dread.
1t often seemed to me that I would
rather die than live.
"One day last spring friend of mine
strongly recommended DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, and was in
duced to give them trial for my
troubles. Before got through the first
box experienced great relief For the
first time in all these years 1 felt that /
was gaining little strength. I con-
tinued to use them with hopefulness,
and by the time had taken four boxes
did not feel like the same woman. The
weakness, the melancholy, the restless
ness from which suffered so long have
disappeared and life is entirely different.
1 am glad that I took them myself and I
heartily recommend them to others for
what they have done for me.''
When the blood is impure, or weak, OF
scanty, every nerve and muscle and or.
gan of the body feels the harmful effect;
for the blood goes everywhere and the
vitality of every part depends upon it.
The cure Of complicated cases like that
of Mrs. Miller. i'll which body and mind
both suffer, shows what wonderful re-
suits follow the use of the greatest of
blood remedies.
Dr.Williams' Pink Pills are what hun.
dreds of women need to change
wretched into happy existence, to en-
able them to get rid of small worries al
together, to bear heavy burdens easily
and to find daily enjoyment in life.
Anamia, irregularities, nervous debility
and prostration yield promptly to the
invigorating influence of these marvel
ous pills. They not only cure all forms
of female weakness, but they supply
fresh store of vitality TO the blood and
the nerves and create conditions that
insure lasting good health. They are
cold by all druggists.

From Goldheld, Nevada, the report
comes that the lost Breyfogle mine has
been found by a man by the name OF
Frank Hyde The discovery was purely
accidental The location Is near Bull
frog and two or three miles from the
head OF Furnace creek In the Death
valley country A brief history Of the
mine IL told In the following
In 1865 Henry Breyfogle left Austin,
the seat Of Lander county with sew
eral pack mules, ON prospecting tour.
He was alone, and he Travelled in a
southerly direction passing what Is
now known as Tonopah and Goldlled,
prospecting as he proceeded. After
travelling for what h. thought was
abOut60 or ,Omles he discovered a mar
velous ledge OF gold ore, the yellow
metal fairly standing out In ledge
CT almost Incredible richness. His pro-
Visions WCec running low, but for sew

He worked until his food was almost

note of the location, started back for

IN safety. and when ne displayed his

fever Of excitement A large party was
formed ana with Breyfoge at It's head
! Travelled into what was believed 10 be

could be located
A heavy sJudstorm had swept over

searched the hills and finally an re-
/ turned to Austin, with Breyfogle under
/ the cure Of several men, who feared
that ne would commit some insane

Since that time thousands OF prospec-
tors have ranged the hills south Of
