Laguna. n. NJ. Nov. 3.-Neither the

the question as to whether the devil

inexhaustible fund of amusement in

Some young Indians have been going
over to Cubero lately, getting drunk,
and acting in such manner as to re-
quire stringent measures for the pro-

Ii would be difficult TO get evidence
against the men who sold the liquor,
hut high legal authorities declare that
the Pueblo Indians are citizens for the
purpose of getting drunk, though here
their citizen duties and privileges

Their sole distinguishing mark as

Our benevolent government is ,ex-

WIfE'S REWARD FOR
MISSING HUSBAND
BRINGS HIM BACK TO HER AND
HE CLAIMS REWARD OF $4,000.

Louis Barring, after six months abb
sence from his chosen partner for lie,
discovered through a newspaper that
she was pining away for lack of him
so badly that she was oherlng a re-
ward of $1,000 for information OF his
whereabouts, says the Trinidad Ad-

reward himself. He sent telegram
to his wife in Philadelphia announc-

Barling was at one time a rising
young business man of Philadelphia,
but owing to reverses, he lost great
part of his fortune.
He decided to seek a new location,
and left Philadelphia about six months
ago for Los Angeles, where he in

After leaving his wife, the reverses
which he had met began to prey up
on Barling's mind, and he began
drinking heavily.
He arrived in Trinidad several
months ago. and, with the proud mind
of the descendant of one of tie
wealthiest families in the union, pre-

A DEEP WATER MAN.
For This Reason He Didn't Scare"
When the Boat Hit a Sandbar.

Captain Coomers had sailed over
all the seven seas and the mighty bay
| Of PenObscOt. Therefore he felt only
contempt for the little bug-shaped
steamer that carried passengers from
the mainland to the island resorts
which at that time were just begin
| ming to have summer population.
This was in the days when all good
sailing men locked on steam craft as
mere landSman's toys. Their con-
tempt was warranted by the habits
Of the Belle of breaking down in mid
channel, Of steering off her course in
wind, and of staying at dock dis
creetly when there was any "consid-
cradle breeze of ar"
In one passage across the bay she
fell foul of a current that pushed her
upon a sandbank. The passengers be-
gan to run for the boats and hunt in
impossible places for life preservers.
Capt. COomers sat Oh deck. his big
frame supported by a camp stool, and
his game leg stretched on another
others, crew and passengers, were
rushing about in futile activity. He
looked at the strip of island. then out
at the bay, then at the sky. Then
ne rested his chin on his chest and
studied the deck planking.
A passenger ran up to him and
cried: "Oh, captain, We are wrecked"

The passenger seemed satisfied at

permanent harm. 1t is remarkable
that he was never hit in the eye, nor
sustained broken wing.
Another thing peculiar 20 the loon
is that after the chicks are Matched,
If the mother wishes 10 move far she
will make a shallow dive and come
up under her babies and swim off with
them on her back. The person that
succeeds in photographing her under
such conditions may we'll claim the
pennant. Only once have seen a loon
shoulder her young, although for over
twenty years | lived in the part of
Michigan where then there was the
best chance imaginable to watch
looms. Now the timber has been cut
off around most OF the lakes and such
favorable conditions for observation
no longer exist.
Although | have only once seen a
loon shoulder her babies, l have seen
her swimming with them on her back
many times. Once one swan within
twenty feet of me and never suspect
ed my presence.
One of their calls when sitting on
the water, for volume beats that of
any other bird or beast that | know
of. l have heard them in the night
when they were more than five miles
distant, for they only make that kind
of call from the water, and there.was
no lake in that direction short of
that distance. To say that the loon
is very interesting bird is as mild as
l can express it.-CorrespOndence in

THE LOON.
Some of the Peculiarities for Which
This Bird Is Noted.

The loon differs frorc other birds in
number of ways. | have reason to
think that many people are unaware
Of some, at least, of those peculiari-
ties. The lU0n has hide as tough
as an OK. and its feathers can not be
plucked without first scalding the
bird as you would a hog. This Incl
dent will give some idea Of the tough
ness of the hide. About thirty-five
years ago, when | was living in Micn-
lgan, loon was shot at with a shot
gun industriously all summer, with
out apparently doing him any harm
In the fall | killed him with a rifle.
just to convince the people that a
loon could be shot and killed. He
had many times been shot at with a
rifle by the same people who had
used shotgun, and they had become
convinced that ne dove SO quickly
that he lodged the shot in that way
l had seen them SnOOt at him a num-
Der of times, and l could see the
splash of bullet or shot in the water
before the loon dove. l ridiculed the
idea of the lodging, and that led to
my shooting him to support my con-
tentiOn. When l skinned the bird

No. shot, all of them stuck to the

Airs. III. NVi0kf

Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by a
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary indigestion,
cannot be relieved without medicine
which not only acts as stomach tonic,
but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects
also.
AS proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, n. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
- For two years / suffered with dyspepsia

The journeying clouds; beneath

KelIiher Says ex-state Agent Got Land
ON Butter Creek.
That J. w. Morrow bought 4500
acres of state school land in the Butter
creek irrigation district while he was
state land agent, such purchases being
made on private tip, is the charge
A. I. Kelliher makes in letter to
Governor Chamberlain. Kelliher cites
this transaction in answer to Cover
nor Chamberlain declaration that
he has no friends to protect in the land
fraud investigation. Morrow was an
appointee of Chamberlain, but held
the Office only short time, resigning
soon after he made the purchase re-
ferred to and has since been land and
tax agent of the O. r. & N. Co.
Kelliher's letter is in answer to one
written few days ago by the COVER
nor denouncing the operations of Kell-
iher in state lands. He asserts his be-
lief in the honesty of Morrow, but
thinks his own transactions are no
worse than those of the ex-state land
agent, who was not summoned before
the grand jury at the time when other
large land dealers were under investi-
cation.

FARMERS SUFFER LOSS.
Unthreshed Grain Injured by Continu-
Gus Downfall of Rain.

Unthreshed Grain Injured by Continu-
Gus Downfall of Rain.
Deep gloom has settled upon the few
farmers of Ithe Palouse country who
have their grain crop unthreshed, and
they will suffer serious loss. While
the amount of unsaved grain as COM
pared to the entire crop of the country
is small, the aggregate will run into
thousands of acres. One farmer liv-
ing between Steptoe butte and st.
John declared there are 10, 900 acres of
unthreshed grain in that section and
most of this will be lost. In the
neighborhood of the Saints Home"
ten miles south of Colfax, there are
said to be eight farmers whose crops
are standing in the shock and are bad
ly damaged, if not entirely lost.
More than four inches of rain has
fallen since September 3, and the end
is not yet. Rain has fallen every day
or every night this month, and is
still falling. Conditions are quite
similar to the fall of 1898, when the
largest grain crop grown in the county
up to that time was destroyed by heavy
rains before it was threshed. One
noticeable difference in conditions now
prevailing is that the bulk of the crop
was threshed before the rainfall be
gun, while in 1898 harvest had hardly
begun when the wet season set in.
But for the fact that harvest was fully
one month earlier this year than in
1898, the conditions would have been
almost identical.
While there will be several heavy
individual losses the percentage of the
crop which will be lost is quite small
and will not materially affect the total
yield of the county. Thresbing ma
chine men declare that fully SO per
cent of the crop has been saved with
out loss or damage by wet weather.
The rains began about two or three
weeks earlier than usual and the con-
tinuance and heaviness of the rain
fall is almost unprecedented.
