There is more catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced it a local disease and prescrib-
ed local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treatment pro
nounced it incurable. Science has prov
en- catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. ]. Cheney C Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken intern
ally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system.

case it fails to cure. Send for circu-

NEW RIFLE
FOR ARMY
MOST POWERFUL ARM EVER is.
SUED TO SOLDIERS OF ANY
COUNTRY COMING SOON.
Springfield Model of 1905 Considered
Ahead of Anything Heretofore At
tempted for Soldiers-Muzzle We
locity of More Than Two Thousand
Feet Per Second.

All eyes of the world are turned to
the new American rifle, which the gov
eminent will issue, says the st. Louis
Republic. 1t is called the new
Springfield" and when equipped with
it the troops will have the most pow
erful military rifle known.
Its principle is based on the latest
and most up-to-date ideas in small arms
construction. In view of this, it may
be interesting to compare the new
Springfield" with the rifles now in use
by other nations. The new gun en-
bodies the main features of the Mauser
model of 1898, having the best maya
zine system ever introduced. This
model is used, with slight modifca-
tons, by thirteen governments, but
has been greatly improved by United
States ordnance experts.
Magazine in Reserve.
In the new Springfield, model 1905,
we find the Mauser magazine equipped
with a cutoff" enabling the soldier
to use his gun as a single-loader, hold
ing the full magazine in reserve. The
"stumpy" appearance of the gun is
caused by the reduced length of the
barrel-being only twenty-four inches
long. The complete hand-guard pro
lection is "a necessary feature for the
safety OF the soldier in these days of
~high-powered smokeless powders and
muzzle velocities of 1000 feet a second
This is the second model of the "a
inch barrel rifle made in Springfield.
The first, 1903, was equipped with a
ramrcd bayonet. 1t was the testimony
of experts in favor of the great service
of the bayonet in the recent Japanese
war that caused the knife bayonet to
be revived in America.
Has Sixteen-lnch Bayonet.
To make up for the 6-inch shortening
of the barrel, the new bayonet is six
teen inches long, making the total
length of the gun the same as the pres
ent regulation Krag-Jorgensen. The
arm will be issued to all land and naval
forces n the carbines discarded. The
muzzle velocity of the gun is 1900 feet
a second, or 300 feet faster than the
present Krag. The powder pressure
is $4,000 pounds a square inch and the
bullet will penetrate $50 inches of
white pine at 1900 yards distance. The
recoil is greater than the ordinary gun,
but is not to be compared with the kick
of the old 45-caliber, famous some years
ago for its formidable backward move
ment when exploded.

Geological Survey Makes Important
Announcement Of Reservation and
Some Facts Concerning the Miner
al and Timber Belts-Present Set
tiers Are Indians and White Men
Who Have Married Indian Squaws.
Special to The Republican

Washington, d. c., March 6.-The
geological survey makes the following
announcement concerning the Sho-
ishone Indian reservation:
"The coded portion of the Shoshone
Indian reservation to be thrown open
to settlement this summer, is the area
lying north of Wind river and east of
Pope Agile and Big Horn rivers. 1t
lies in the northern-central portion of
Fremont county, Wyoming, and in.
icludes also a small portion of Big Horn
county adjoining Big Horn canon south
of Thermopolis. The total area is
about 1000 square miles. The north
ern third of this area lies in the Owl
creek and Shoshone mountains and
the southern portion comprises a wide
area of rolling plains in the Wind riv-
er basin. The area is bordered on the
mouth of Wind river and its eastern
margin is crossed by the Big Horn riv-
ier. These Streams carry a large volume
of water and flow in narrow but fiat
bottomed valleys, along which there is
a moderate acreage of land which is
Immediately valuable for agriculture.
Irrigation. Is Necessary.
With a mean average rainfall of
about fifteen inches a year., the climate
is too arid for the raising of crops with
out irrigation, but a large amount of
water in the two large rivers is avail
able for this use. Along the bottom
lands bordering the rivers, the water
can be taken out in small bitches, al
though, owing TO the spring floods,
there will be difficulty in maintaining
these and especially their headgates,
and the amount of land that can be ir-
Irigated by this means is small. BY the
construction of irrigation canals, how
ever, wide areas of the basin lands
could be brought under cultivation, es-
|pecially if the flood waters of the
mountain slopes could be stored for
use during the dry season. The great.
er part of the region is well adapted
for grazing and this undoubtedly will
be its principal use. Fully two-thirds
of the land bears a fair growth of nu-
tritious grasses and water for stock
and is within reach, excepting in a few
districts.
