Cody, telegraph operators employed by
the Western Union company, are under

The men worked a very clever game.
Allison dropped into the Cody bank a

In 1893 the summit of Carguairazo
a burning mountain near Quito, 1900
feet high, crumbled together, so that
nothing more than two enormous
rocky horns of the crater's edge re-

two square miles was desolated with
liquid tufa, and argillaceous mud, en-

Nothing will cure INDIGESTION that
doesn't digest the food, ITSELF and give
the stomach a perfect rest.
You can't reasonably expect that
any weak stomach will regain its
strength and get well when it Is
compelled to do the full work that a
sound stomach should do.
You wouldn't expect a sick horse
to get well when it is compelled to do
full days work every day of n week.
Your stomach must have rest.
But it isn't necessary to staroe your
self in order to rest your stomach.

can stated that indications pointed to
a walkaway for Mr.. Gillette, candidate
for state treasurer, that the north was
supporting him solidly. The state
ment was contained in the Cheyenne
correspondence of that paper. One of
two things are certain, the writer Is
either p~rejudiced against Mr. Schnitger
or is not in possession of accurate in
formation. The present outlook does
not warrant the statement that Mr..
Gillette will have a walkaway. He has
friends all over the state, but they
fully appreciate the fact that Mr..
Schnitger is strongly intrenched and
that his friends arc loyal to him. If
an effort were made to divide the state
on north and south lines, as the Den
YER Republican correspondent appears
to believe, there would still be no rea.
son why Mr.. Schnitger should feel that
he is distanced, as a majority of the
convention will come from the social.
ed south. But such a division will not
be made. Mr.. Gillette and his friends
will be willing to abide by the decision
of the majority, no matter from
whence they may come. Present indi.
cations point to the conclusion that
both contestants for the treasurership
may be on the state ticket. Such a re,
suit would be a happy contamination,
as they are men of great ability and
would give the people splendid service,

The Truth of 1t.

Says a Georgia philosopher: You
can't outrun lightning, you can't growl

in spending two.thirds of your life

Hon. II p. Fuller, state commissions

land near Basin City at a good figure

SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich, Jan.
11.-Isaac Eagle, who was recently
convicted of numbering his wife and
sentenced to the state prison at Jack
son for life, was grantd a new trial
by Judge Steere today on the ground
that James Ferguson, a member of the
jury, is not a citizen.
Ferguson at the time of the trial
swore he was a citizen 1t is alleged
that later he made an affidavit that he
was not An investigation will follow.
Eagle was for many years prominent
in political circles in the upper PENN
sula, holding office and amassing a
fortune in Chippewa county lands. The
evidence at the trial showed that he
chased his wife out of the house into
the back yard and blew her brains out.
The defense was that Eagle was in
sane. The case will come up in the
February term of court.

THAT is WHAT GOVERNOR BRADY
SAYS IN HIS ANNUAL
REPORT.
Has Been Suggested That Country
Would be Good Place for Match
Making Mothers.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.-Women!
Women!! Young women of healthy
minds and bodies!!! That is the press
ing need of Alaska today. So the chiv-
alrous John G. Brady of that territory
sends out in his annual report, just
made public an appeal for young
gentle words of love told by the mighty
men of the northwest and to try home
building His is the true cry from the
wids for wives.
"As fine specimens of manhood as
ever stood on two feet, are there, who
would become husbands" declares this
governor VINO ought to know. All
health and courage, they have come to
country in search of fortune. They
have not been as successful as they
expected, but they have not given up
the struggle. Man was not made to
live alone, even when prospecting. But
why not return to the states for a
wife? Governor Brady says they have
too much pride to come back to their
old homes for a visit and wife as long
as they have not the fortune.
1T is noticed says the governor,
that schoolma' ans and other young
women wno come here, do not reside IN
h,,+ CHI hof0ra
worthy admirer turns up and tells the
old story A number of these chose
matrimony during the past year.
There should be no such thing as
race suicide in Alaska, where We have
more tnan nine square miles per CAPT.
ta But to get these young women, that
is the question. Shall the government
resort to the importation of them, as
women were brought to Virginia cen
turtles ago to marry the man who would
pay her passage? How to do it, the
governor can't decide. ct is a delicate
matter and not easy to arrange, but it
is desirable to nave more women of
good mind and health to try this west
ern life and ome-building," says he.
! Those who have love of children and
desire to rear a family should learn
what special advantages Alaska has
to mold to Them
1t has been suggested Alaska would
be a good place for a match making
mother to take her daughters.
