 Ill the year 1870 the government forced the MOdocs to move OH to the reservation of the Klamaths.

These golden beZants contained about 30 shillings' worth of our gold. but to go to market with would buy then as much probably as 72 sovereigns now would Were the scorner allowed to break forth here he would probably tell how this high priced and saintly carcass was treat cd by his people when Louis died at the siege of Tunis. twenty years later.

The leading guide Furrer, was making his way over when stone. dropping from considerable height struck him on the head and instantly killed him. The two others. attached by their rope to his dead body, were unable in their precarious foothold to resist the shock and were immediately swept away down the couloir at ter rife speed. Their axes were torn from their grasp. and Gentinetta. who never lost consciousness, was convinced that death must await them at the end of that awful journey. But this man of iron nerve kept his presence of mind and showed what a stout heart and keen intelligence can do even In the most desperate situation.

Priceless, Yet co.tle..-pure Air

There is no menace to vitality and to the sum and the value of the products of vital energy so continuously lmmi- nent. SO insidious. so effectively active as are the invisible wastes of the body. The dead by the weapons of the worlds battlefields are few compared With those whose lives have been either blighted or prematurely ended because of failure to maintain the body in correct relation to the atmospheric source of abundant energy waiting to be transformed into vital force and who have died for want of proper breath. He who would live at his best must breathe air at its purest. There is no material necessity to life greater than that of pure air. There is nothing so priceless and yet so costless as air There is no financial investment which does or can yield so sure and so large returns as money wisely expended for pure air.-Professor s. H. Woodbridge in Good Housekeeping.

TALON of negro troops because of their
failure to disclose the identity OF some
OF their number who had been guilty
OF violence and murder. AS an evi'

fair to the colored troops, the presi'

an order which may amount to the

of high grade who was charged with

This is the outcome of the riotous

address of the case OF Countess de

band, Count Boni de Castelane that
there was not the faintest possibility
of a reconciliation, II is by no means
certain that the count has abandoned
hope OF such an outcome. His con.
duct since the suit began appears to
have been based upon the belief that
his wife must yield in the end. This
theory will explain the counts refusal
of liberal offers of a life income. 1t
is also disclosed that the count never

which he begged for reconciliation
and in which he mathematical tho

NeRvY RoseER HOLDS UP TRAIN
Attempts to Make Rich Haul Single.
Handed, But is Outwitted by Porter.

Kansas City.--A lone robber. heav.
fly armed. boarded the rear sleeper of
eastbound California Limited train on
the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific,
known as No. A. between Slater and
Glasgow. Mo, at 11:5S Friday night,
robbed three passengers and escaped
in The darkness According to the
local officers of the Pullman company
the robber secured but $65. The rob-
Der. who is described as being tall
and wearing a long black overcoat
and a mask, boarded the train at
Slater When the train had gained
Roadway he entered the sleeper, an
observation car He encountered the
Pullman conductor a flagman and a
negro porter.
Leveling two revolvers' at the trio
of trainmen, the robber commanded
them to proceed ahead of him and
wake up the passengers. As his COM
mand was carried out, the robber,
forcing the conductor, porter and flag
man ahead of him. secured what
booty he could In his hurried march
through the car. When he had
reached the front end OF the car he
started for the second Pullman. The
porter, however, had managed to get
far enough ahead Of the others to
make dash for the second car and
slammed and locked the door in the
face of the robber.
The train then was at a point about
one mile from Glasgow. Realizing
that he could proceed no further with
his work the robber pulled the air
rope. While the train was slacken.
ing its speed he jumped off and disap-
peared in the darkness.

Entire state Ticket Elected by Re-
pubIieans, While Legislature Will

Boise, a.-Thesmajorfty for Gov
ernor Gooding in the state stands at
about 1000. IN the southeast he ran
with the rest of the state ticket, but
in the southwest he ran behind In
this (Ada) county he lost by 500,
while French carried the county by
1877. 1t is possible that the majority
on the state ticket will run 5000
more than the governor. Lansdon for
secretary of state was badly cut In
some of the southern counties, but
not enough to prevent his election,
His opponent carried Ada county by
637. The state ticket generally had
about LOO, though the figures varied.
In Washington county Galloway beat
Lansdon 500 and the rest of the state
ticket got 500, excepting Stocks
lager, who got 1000.
The legislative situation stands 40

Republicans have thirteen senators.
