honor. The rooms were thronged with
guests all the evening, all the church
es being we'll represented and gladly
extending welcome to the new pastor
and his wife. Refreshments were
served by the young ladies of the So
ciety. The table was decorated in
pink carnations, the table cloth had a
circle of pinks and bouquet of the
same flower in the centre. Carnations
also decorated the side board. Mr..
and Mrs. Stull made very pleasant
impression on our people. 1t was a
very graceful thing for the young peo-
pie of the church to plan so elaborate
and large affair, making it an oppor-
tunity for the older members to enjoy
themselves care free. Mr.. and Mrs.
Jones added the cordiality of their
welcome to that of the young people
and Mr.. and Mrs. Stull's.
Mr.. and Mrs. C. A. Jones expect
Mrs. j. Thomas and family of Omaha
and AL Dean of Rockwell City to
spend Thanksgiving with them. We
hope Mrs. Thomas beautiful voice
may be heard in the Thursday church
service.
On Friday night the pupils of Miss

The pupils belonged to the younger

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and nat is by constitutional rem
edies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have a rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothin. but an inflamed condition
of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by

RAILROADS NOW RECEIVE CAT
TIE FOR SHIPMENT AT CENTS
PER HUNDRED POUNDS.
of Western Lines Being Watch
ed BY American Stock Growers
Association, Which Sends Circu-
lar to Interested Stockmen in the
Cattle Growing States.

The American Stock Growers as
sociation. of which Hon. Ora Haley
of this city and State Treasurer W. c.
Irvine of Cheyenne are members OF
the executive committee, has issued
the following interesting circular let
ter, dated at Denver, Colo, June "a,
entitled Special Notice. and address
cd 10 the stock growers in Colorado,
Wyoming. Utah, Idaho and Nevada,
and signed by 7. w. Tomlinson, the
secretary:
During the week of June - to June
II, 1900, representatives of western
railroads met in Denver for the pur-
pose of changing, into cents per hun
drcd pounds, such rates on cattle and
sheep, from your section Of the coun-
try, as are now published in dollars
and cents per car. In making this
conversion some of the railroads were
inclined to use as a divisor a weight
per a much less than the average
customary loading per car, which
would of course result in a material
advance in the railroad charges.
On behalf Of the interested live stock
shippers, MurdO Mackenzie, President,
and T. w. Tomlinson, Secretary, OF
American Stock Growers association,
appeared before this committee of rail
road officials and protested against any
reimbursement Of rates that would
cai4e an advance in the total charge
PER car. We Informed them that tris
association would not object to the
change in basis from du,ll:s pei or
20 cents per hundred pounds, but that
the conversion should be made diJu 4
fan average loading per car, SO that
the live stock shippers You'll nCt be
compelled to pay more for the trans,
portatiOn of their stock han at pres.
ent. 1t should, however, be said, in all
fairness to the railroads, that some OF
their representatives claimed there
was no intention to advance rates by
this plan. The check of rates by the
railroads was not completed last week,
but it was agreed that whatever
change was to be made would not go
into effect until January l, 1906. Mean,
time, this association will carefully
watch the matter, thoroughly examine
the new rate, and take such action as
is necessary.
We would like to have all the stock
growers in the territory affected by
this change advise us their views on
this matter and any suggestions on
this or other kindred questions of in.
terest to the live stock industry will
be given careful consideration.

A A CASE.
Many More Like 1t in Laramie.

The following case is but one of
many similar occurring daily in Lar
annie. 1t is an easy matter to verify
its correctness. Surely you cannot ask
for a better proof than such a conclu-
siye evidence.
John E. Burke, carpenter, of 1866
Front street, says: "If sharp pain
across the loins especially after stoop-
ing, added to an annoying difficulty
with the kidney ]secretions, are positive
signs that a mans kidneys require the
use of medicine to correct their action
then mine did. Noticing Doan's Kid
ney Pills advertised as a specific for
the kidneys and knowing that they
were highly recommended induced me
to go to the Laramie Drug Co.'S store
for a box. This remedy acts directly
upon the kidneys as stated. 1t washes,

false swearing and ~tax-dodging. The
honorable citizen who steps sQuarely
to the front and gives in all his proper
ty is the notable exception and it may
also be stated that he pays about three
times his share of the taxes. The
last number of the Saturday Evening
Post contains an able editorial upon
this important matter, which is quot
ed in full:
Newport will be less gay this sum
mer. The assessor has discovered and
listed for taxation Sl3,313,1 100 of per
sonal property which has not been tax
ed before.
THE amount of the tax, if grossly
measured in dollars and cents, is a
bagatelle to Newport, but the calling
fact that these particular owners of
personal property were unable to es-
cape paying these taxes must sadden
and humiliate them as often as they
recall it-intruding its %grinning head
at their richest feasts and derisively
poking them in the ribs as they lie
on their downy beds. 1t is something
that few self-respecting property own
ers can stand. Many millionaires have
been driven from their homes by it,
and gone wandering from state to state
and township 10 township in order to
escape.
"Once there was a resident of Chi

A BEING AS
MORALLY INSANE
ROYAL COLLEGE PHYSICIAN OF
LONDON ADDRESSES COMMITS
SION ON THE SUBJECT.
Deco Laid Plot BY Child of Seven
Years Reverted to by Speaker,
Showing Tendency Of Mind-Stole
Clothes and Wore Them in Pres.
ence of Their Owner.

London, June 2S.-Testifying before
the royal commission on the care and
control Of the feeble minded. DR.. c. a.
MERCER, representing the Royal col
lege of physicians, said:
Il certainly think there is such a
thing as moral insanity"
Some remarkable cases were men
toned by DR.. MERCER. An intelligent
child of I had learned about the pawn
broking business by reading an article
in a magazine. having learned while
at dinner where some rings were kept,
he took an opportunity of slipping in
to the rooms, DOL the rings, and went
out and pawned them. 1t was a deep
|ly laid plot.
Dr.. MERCER did not say that the
child was responsible at that age, but
certainly it was not the conduct of a
normal child who had that very day
been soundly thrashed for stealing. a
normal child would be made to appre-
ciate and recognize what he had done,
but this child could not be made to ap-
p~reciate it.
There a another case OF a young
man, who, while attending one of the
military colleges as a student, stole
some clothes and wore them in the
presence of their rightful owner. He
was amply supplied with clothes and
money by his parents, but he liked
these clothes better than his own, and
took them. He could not be persuad
d that it was a wrong thing 20 do
but there was no other symptom in HIM
of imbecility.
DR.. MERCER went on to give another
,ase Of a nurse, who, he said, had
poisoned as many as forty of her pa
tents. 1t was impossible at that time
to dicover any intellectual defect in
ler. She Vas found morally insane be
cause no motive could be traced. In
Iced the persons she poisoned were
her intimate friends. After she had
zen in an asylum for several years
symptoms of definite insanity began
o exhibit themselves, and she soon be
came very deeply insane.

LEGEND OF THE OSTRICH.
DWells in Solitude as Punishment for
Presumption.

Among the Arabs there is a curious
legend to account for the ostrich's
residence in the desert. "On a certain
day appointed" so the story goes,
"all created beings met together to
decide upon their respective order
and precedence. All went smoothly
until the ostrich, pleading its inability
to fly, disowned the birds and claimed
to take rank with the mammals.
These, however, would have moth
ing to say to a creature clothed not
with fur. but with feathers, while the
birds, when the ostrich wen detected
ly back, re%pudiated it also as a traitor
to Its race. But the ostrich was equal
to the occasion and declared that being
neither mammal or bird it must be an
angel.
AT this all the other animals indig-
nantly rushed upon the ostrich and
drove it before them into the desert,
where it has lived in solitude v e
since. with no one to contradict It."

ken0sha Lass Escapes Jail ON Va
grancy Charge by Agreeing TO
Remain at Home.

Kenosha, Wis, July 29.-The most
unusual punishment ever given in a
Justice court in this section of the
state was imposed on Mary Decker, IS
years old, by Judge McCarron. By
the terms of a contract. signed by Miss
Decker, she consents to become a
voluntary recluse for the next five
years. The girl is a daughter of a
farmer in Bristol. A short time ago
she tired of life on the farm and came
here seeking for the excitement of
''city life" She was arrested on the
charge Of vagrancy.
When the case was called in court
the father Of the girl appeared and
asked that he he allowed to take his
daughter back to the farm. This the
court consented to, providing the girl
would sign 4 written promise not to
appear in any public place without the
company of her father for the next
five years. The girl, in signing the
promise, stated she had seen enough
of the world and she would be glad
to remain under the parental roof with
the protection of her father for the re-
mainder Of her life.
