to the Associated Press:
"The demands on the finance CON-
mittee are very great, and we do not
see how we can meet them if the con-
ditiOns continue. There is no money of
the community in circulation. The
banks are closed because they dare not
open their heated vaults. and when
they do open them they will prob

"The means of support of the hos

TRIED To ESCAPE
FROM PENlTENTiARY.

Noah Richardson of Crook county,
confined in the ~peniteEtiary under sen
tence to hang, made an effort to escape
last night by saving out through the
west window of the cell house, says
the Rawlins Republican.
He failed to get enough of the bars
sawed off to allow him to crawl out on
the roof, but his story to the warden
is that his conscience began hurting
him and he gave up the job. The war.
den, however, thinks he broke his saw
and had to give up.

De subjected in every way to the same
treatment as others. Richardson has
been given the freedom of the CORR
doris, and this gave him the advantage
he started to take.
From now on, however, the warden
will take no chances and Richardson
will not have the same freedom as
heretofore.

a substitute for coal as fuel will be
found entirely satisfactory. 1t is evil
dent, for instance, that where water

tricity may be looked upon as entirely

Nevertheless, the warning which Mr..
Hill uttered was timely, for, however
great our faith in the inventive genius
of future generations, we must admit
that as yet adequate substitutes for
coal and iron have neither been invent
ed nor discovered. The generation of
today is certainly d~iscounting the fut-
ure so far as the consumption of coal

fulness thus shown should be checked.
1t needs the warning words Of great
leaders like Mr.. Hill to force the peo,

and they cannot be uttered too often
or with too much emphasis.-Denver

Attorney Jerome of New York has

The boss, he says, is a man who Sc.

methods for the purpose of graft, while
the genuine party leader seeks party

munity in which he lives, renouncing

JAMES ]. HILLS WARMING.

Mr.. James ]. Hill, the railroad build.
Ell of the northwest has been talking
a great deal lately about the exhaus
ton of our iron and coal resources in
the comparatively near future. His
mood is somewhat pessimistic, and SC
far as he thinks civilization and its
progress are dependent upon the ex.
tensiye use of iron and coal, he has
reason for his pessimism, for since
iron and coal do not renew themselves,
the supply of each must in course of
time be exhausted through use.
Whether the day of the exhaustion
of our supplies of coal and iron comes
within fifty or within five hundred
years, it must of necessity come some
time, If the present rate of consump-
ton is maintained. So philosophers
and statesmen who build upon these
two commodities as cornerstones of
civilization, cannot avoid contemplate
ing a time when progress will be check
ed and mankind will ask whether it
has reached the limit of possible
achievement.
OF course it is impossible to CON
ceive of a high degree of civilization
without the use of metals. 1t is rath-
er their e-xtravagant and wasteful use
which should be considered here: and.
happily, it is by no e impossible

Edward Taylor Says Ike Abraham and L0rsis smith Formerly of This City are in Jail Charged
 With Crime.


 Edward Taylor. well known young railroad man of Montgomery, returned to his home yesterday from San Fran cisco, Cal, where he had an exciting experience, having been held up by footpads and robbed. Two well known young Montgomerians aye now in jail in San Francisco charged with com plicity in the crime.
 MT. Taylor, son of Deputy Sheriff Albert Taylor, of Montgomery county, left the city several weeks ago for the Golden West. In San Francisco Ne met Ike Abraham, formerly of Mont gomery. well known as a gambler, and Louis Smith, formerly a young Montgomery stableman.
 He lived with the men for several weeks. Finally he grew tired of life near the Golden Gate and decided to return home. An express money or der was forwarded him by bis father for something over $50. Abraham and Smith were with him when 1t was cashed.
 The same night he says he was fn- Vited to go summing" He accepted and Taylor, Abraham and Smith wis ited d number of opium Joints" saw the sights and started on their return home. As the three men passed dark alley, Mir. Taylor says two or three

Constipation and Its
 Causes.
A weII-Known Remedy.


 Constipation is one of mans worst enemies, and half the bodily ills we suffer from are a result thereof. Ma ture meant that the bowels should be kept free and open-that we should have a free movement at least once a day. Of course, we ourselves are to a large extent responsible for our trou- bles by failure to observe Natures laws. Our habits are irregular. and we eat improper food with undue haste, and when we find our bowels do not move, have resort to powerful drugs and medicines. which are so drastic in their action that. although they may purge at first, they damage the ten- der lining of the stomach and bowels so far as to leave a worse condition than before. And why take such inju- rious and expensive drugs when we can obtain from any druggist, much cheaper, a bottle of Natures own rem edy-the famous Mineral Laxative Water-HUNYADI JANOS-bottled at the springs in Hungary; in use nearly half a century. Cne dose. one-half a tumblerful drunk on arising in the morning, (slightly warmed for best results), will bring within an hour a refreshing movement-gentle, natural. and thorough-without any gripping or purging or other bad efefcts. A whole bottle costs but a trifle. Keep

one always on hand. At all Druggists. footpads stepped out and covered them with pistols. Abraham and Smith promptly backed against a wall, threw up their hands and offered no resistance. MT. Taylor. however charged forward. grasped tho pistol arm of his assailant and was getting the best of him. when another of the
 footpads felled him with blow on the head. He was then relieved of what money he had.
 The matter was reported to the po- lice department and MT. Taylor was sent to a hospital.
 The detectives immediately became
 suspicious of Abraham and Smith.
 They were both arrested and accord
 ing to Mir. Taylor, Abraham confessed
 that the footpads were his and Smiths confederates; that they had lured Tay- Tor into a trap.
 Mir. Taylor had started on his return
 to Montgomery. when the alleged con fession was made. He was called back and his deposition was taken. The two young Montgomerians were bound
 over to the county grand jury and are now awaiting trial in prison.
 Abraham is reported to be in wretch ed health.

The ticket sales at the Montgomery Union Railway Station for tho month of December broke all records and ex- ceeds by s6.000 anything ever before known at that office.
 The December sales amounted to s69, ,64692, the heaviest business in the history of the office. Last July brought the next heaviest business. the figures running something over $s3.00o.
