500 Reward, 500,

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at
least one dreaded disease that sci
ence has been able to cure in all its
stages, and that is catarrh. Hali's
Catarrh Cure is the only positive
cure now known to the medical
fraternity. Catarrh being a con-
stitutional disease, requires con-
stitntional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, act
ing directly upon the blood and
mucuous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the
patient strength by building up the
the constitution and assisting ma
ture in doing it's work. The pro-
prietors have SO much faith in it's
curative powers that they offer
one hundred dollars for any case
that it fails to cure. Send for list
of testimonials. Address F. J.

School Notes
BY CLAUDE WOODWARD,

Friday will close the second
month of school and monthly ex.
aminations are in order. The
month shows great Improvement
ovea the first and all the grades are
beginning to get down to work in
earnest. All OF the books have
arrived and during the coming
month most of the grades will be
studying their advance work, they
having mostly been reviewed.
The junior class is feeling rather
proud. They are studying the
same Latin and English literature
lessons as the seniors.
Another fire drill was held Tues
day and though it wasn't what it
should be-, it was a great improve
ment over the other. 1t is ex-
pected to have such a drill at least
once month during the rest of
the term.
The juiors and seniors have
taken up the study of Pancoast's
English literature.
There are two new pupils in the
high school.
The seats in Mrs. Spedden's
room have been rearranged. They
are now facing the west. 1t was
thought the light would be better
by having them this way.
Two other debating clubs have
been organized in the high school,
one OF girls and the other of boys.
1t is reported that basket ball
team of girls will be organized in
the high school soon.

Death of Mrs. w. E. Cook.

Mrs. Warren f. Cook died on
Thursday evening, October u, at
her home on Salmon river, near
the Campbell ferry. The immedi-
ate cause of her death was Apo
plexy, brought on apparently from
premature child birth. Deceased
was aged about 43 years.
Mrs. Cook has been IN Idaho for
some three years, coming here from
Salem, Oregon. Most of her resi-
denco in Idaho has been in and
around Elk City, where she was
well and favorably known. She
was married two years ago, and to
friends has expressed herself as
having since that time led an ideal
life. This was her second matri-
monial venture, her former hus-
band having been Mr.. Aiken.
Mrs. Cook was stricken with
appoplexy on the 18th, aud her left
side was completely paralyzed. She
was attended in her illness by Mrs.
G. Z. Churchill, aud everything
was done for the unfortunate suf-
ferer that kindness and matured
Judgment counseled. Mrs. Pete
Campbell and DIR. Cullen of Elk
City were summoned to the bed
side Of Mrs. Cook, making the long
ride in day and night, but did
not arrive until after the Angel of
Death had claimed its own. The
interment was on ranch Saturday
AFTERNOON, and was attended by
many friends from Dixie and Elk
City.
Deceased is survived by her hus-
band, Warren f. Cook, a Salmon
river rancher; her mother, Mrs.
Bernardo of Salem, Oregon; and
three brothers and four sisters, who
live at various points on the coast.
During her residence in this Sec
ton of the country Mrs. Cook, by
her cheerfulness aud kindness, has
endeaaed herself to all who came
in contact with her; and her un-
timely death is sincerely mourned
by the entire community. She was
a devout Catholic christian, and as
near as possible was buried under
the rites of that church. Elk City

has since given that gentleman such
deep satisfaction.
Why this proceeding should have
been so displeasing to their friends re
port says not; but that it was so is
evident from the fact that great re-
joicing took place on all sides when
Veronica suddenly developed into a
healthy child, and the probability of
David Moore inheriting the coveted
estate decreased to minimum. 1t
was not long rejoicing, however, for
John Judson followed his wife to the
grave before Veronica had reached her
tenth year, leaving her and her half
sister, Cora, to the guardianship OF a
Grabbed old bachelor who had been his
fathers lawyer. This lawyer was
morose and peevish, but he was never
positively unkind. For two years the
sisters seemed happy enough, when,
suddenly and somewhat peremptorily,
they were separated, Veronica being
sent to western school, where she
remained, seemingly without a single
visit east, till she was seventeen.

these served only to increase my ardor.
