DIED-At the Wood Live Stock
ranch, at the residence of his
daughter, Mrs. Chas. Matley,
on Friday, Oct. 18th, 1907, at
$50 p. M, Mr.. Wilson Ellis.
Aged rs years and , months.
Mr.. Ellis is one of the early
pioneers, and came West by slow
team crossing the Plains in 1862.
He was born at Bourne, Eng
land, August 18th, 1882, and
came to America in 1856 and set
tied at Milwaukee, Wis, and
came West in 1862 and settled in
Auburn, Oregon. In February
1863 he moved to Centerville,
Boise Basin, Idaho. Here Boise
Ellis, son of Mr.. Ellis, was born.
Boise was the first white child
born in Boise Basin, and he was
killed a few years ago at May by
an accident. In 1864 Mr.. Ellis,
the subject of this sketch, went
to Rocky Bar where he remained
one year, then moved to Boise
City where he lived two years.
In the spring of 1867 he went to
Salmon City where he lived un-
til 1878 when he went to Pah-
samaroi valley where he has re-
sided ever since, except one } ear
-1S79-he spent in Challis.
Mr.. Ellis leaves three daugh-
ter and one son who survive him,
viz Mrs. Emily Shook of Sal
mon; Mrs. Jas. Shoup of Alaska
Mrs. Chas. Matley and Geo. A.
Ellis of Pahsamaroi.
Mr.. Ellis has been in feeble
health for more than a year past
and died without pain from ole

spected citizen and had many
friends.
Mr.. Ellis and Royal A. Pierce
crossed the plains in the same
freight train, both starting from
Wisconsin.
The funeral was held at May

was largely attended.

Harris
''Dr. Harris and staff, of the
Medical institution in Liverpool,
England, and Charlottesville,
Ind, branch Office, Portland,
Ore. ,lectured to large audience
Monday night. The doctors are
agreeable and forcible speakers
and held the audience in close
attention while they explained
the theory and usefulness of their
wonderful discoveries.
Many promises were made
which seemed utterly impossible
to believe and when the doctor
invited those who were hard of
hearing to come forward and be
cured, Lewis Mackey, SC. Mann
and S. A. Meyers responded to
the call and we're made to hear a
whisper in a few seconds.
The doctor then called for
cripples on crutches and John E.
Erickson responded. He was
afflicted with rheumatism, for 10
years and he was unable to walk
except with crutches and great
difficulty and pain. He was OPP
Grated on with medicine for 20
minutes and walked off the stage
free from pain and stiffness, fol
| lowed by the wondering crowd,
while the doctor broke his
crutches. To say the audience
was astonished and wild, would
be putting it mildly. Ministers
and doctors were in the audience
and they seemed as we'll pleased
as any.
"They treat the following dis
eases: Paralysis, catarrh, deaf
ness, big neck, bladder and kid
ney diseases, rheumatism, scrot'
ula, loss of manly vigor, female
diseases, bowel complaint, debil-
ity, dropsy, heart, liver and
nerve diseases, tape worm, sore
legs, all ear and eye diseases,
cancers, piles and tistula cured
without cutting or pain, and all
kinds of chronic diseases treated

The Narracoote caves, in south
Australia, are situated in the south
eastern portion of the state, the
principal chamber, known as the
big cave" with its magnificent
profusion of beautiful stalactites
and stalagmites, forming a dazzling
spectacle when illuminated by the
magnesium light. In second cham
Der, or cave, nature has been prod
igal of the mystical ornament with
which the whole place abounds.
There are pillars so finely formed
and covered with such dainty trel-
lis work, curious drippings of lime
creating such wonderful masses of
lovely scroll work, that the eye is
bewildered with the extent and rari-
ty of the adornment. 1t is like a

Of frozen silvery cascades and foun-
tains all around. Western Austria

rival those of New South Wales,
