PIGS
OHIO MAN rs TO TEST A NEW
THEORY.
Believes That the Animal Is Natu-
rally Lover of Cleanliness
But Has Never Been Given
Chance to Prove 1t.

r. K. Rutter of Lexington, O., has
leaped into fame at one Jump by an
nouncing that hereafter he is going
to keep the pig in the parlor, says
the Chicago Record Herald. Mr.. Rut-
ter, from advices from the correspond
ent at Lexington, is a man with a
theory His idea as he has evolved
it is that pigs are naturally lovers
of cleanliness, all reports to the con-
trary Notwithstanding.
He will attempt to prove his theory
by taking six tiny little porkers and
bringing them to bright adult age in
his parlor. They will never know the
contamination of the muddy slough
and the pen. They will be raised as
real ladies and gentlemen and then
turned loose to choose their future
career in the parlor or in the muddy
bog. Mr.. Rutter is willing to bet dol
lars to doughnuts that the swine will
give the merry "oof-oof" to the mud
dy bog and waddle back to the par
lor.
Mr.. Rutter says that pigs are set
down by the unthinking as being
lovers of dirt because usually all their
early environment is dirt. The ordi-
nary or garden variety of pig, says
Mr. Rutter, has never had an opportu.

reserve that each one Of them was ofun-

eases, and had stood the test of many
years experience in the treatment OF
such diseases. THERE CAN BE NO
DISPUTE ABOUT THIS WHAT
EVER. Peruna is composed ofthe most

remedies for catarrh. Every Ingredient

Peruna brings to the home the COM
BINED KNOWLEDGE OF SEVERAL
SCHOOLS OF MEDICINE In the treat
ment of catarrhal diseases; brings to
the home the scientific skill and knowl-
edge of the modern pharmacist; and last
but notleast, brings to the home thevast
and varied experience of DR.. Hartman,
intheuseofcatarrh remedies, and in the
treatment of catarrhal diseases.
The fact is, chronic catarrh is a dis
ease which is very prevalent. Many
thousand people know they have
chronic catarrh. They have visited
doctors over and over again, and been
told that their case is one of chronic
catarrh. It may be ofthe nose, throat,
lungs, stomach or some other internal
organ. There is no doubt as to the ma
ture of the disease. The only trouble
is the remedy. This doctor has tried to
cure them. That doctor has tried to
prescribe for them.
BUT THEY ALL FAILED TO
BRIG ANY RELIEF.
Jr. Hartman's idea is that catarrh
remedy can be made on a large scale,
as he is making it; that it can be made
honestly, of the purest drugs and of
the strictest uniformity. HIS idea is
that this remedy can supplied direct
lyto the people, and no more be charged
for it than is necessary for the
handling oft.
No other household remedy so uni
versally advertised carries upon the
label the principal active constituents,
showing that Peruna invites the full
inspection of the critics.

General Agent Scanlon was inter-

and gave this outline of the Mil
waukec's work to the Post:
"We crossed the Dakota line into
Montana Saturday night" said Mr..
Scanlon to the Post Monday. The
point of entrance into Montana is
ABOUT SO miles south Of the boun-
Diary line Of North and South Da-
kota. Dawson county is the first
part of Montana touched by the St.
Paul. "We are in operation from a
point 50 miles east Of Terry, and
track is being laid very rapidly.
About four miles of steel per day
is being spiked into place. We are
working from both ends, laying steel
east from Harlowton and west from
our present terminus We have 100
miles of track laid east Of Harlow

at Miles City by February Is. Our
line is now past the Musselshell
crossing.
1T is problematical just when
we'll pull trains into Butte, as much
Of the construction of that line de-
pends upon steel manufacturers, etc.
However, am certain that we will
go into Butte on our own rails in
the early part of next spring.

made in the road near Dorsey.

1t is understood that the St. Paul
road will build fine wagon road to
connect with their line south of
Dorsey. From official sources also
It is understood that the liberal policy
of the St. Paul, which it has always
pursued east of the Mississippi, will
be in vogue on its Pacific extension
and that shippers will be given ev-

GRAIN MARKET STRONGER.
Wheat Went To Seventy Cents Per BusheI On
The Local Market Yesterday.-A Drop OF
Two Cents TOday.-Mil viii Start.

The local wheat market struck the
highest point yesterday it has reach
ed since the crash came two months
ago when 20 cents per bushel was
paid for No. hard. The price fell
off couple of cents today but the
eastern market is strong and it is be-
1ieved that another raise is due to
come soon.
Reduced Freight Rate.
The change in the freight rate from
S. cents to IS cents per hundred will
come next Tuesday and the Mon
tana Elevator management are now
buying wheat for delivery after that
date at the higher price.
This reduction means an increase
of six cents per bushel and this will
be a considerable item to the grain
growers of Fergus county.
Will Start the Mill.
Considerable wheat is coming into
the local elevator, being brought by
ranchers who pledged about twelve
thousand bushels to be ground into
-four at the Judith Basin mill. The
miller is ready to come over when
ever the gentlemen who have the pro-
ject in charge are ready for him and
it is thought that the mill will be
started within few days. There are
few minor details yet to be ar
ranged but it is not believed that
they will, in any manner, disarrange
the plans which have been made.
Line to Be Closed.
A dispatch from Great Falls states
that farmers wishing to ship grain
and other material from points on
the Billings & Northern, south of
Arlington, should hasten their ar
rangements, as trains will stop rum
ming between Arlington and the
southern terminus of the line after
January IS. In order to accommo-
date those who wished to ship ranch
produce from points in the county,
the line was opened several weeks
ago for limited period, but the
officials of the road have found it
necessary to discontinue the running
of trains after the date mentioned.
During the time the road has been
open for freight traffic, considerable
grain and hay has been shipped to
this city and other points east and
west, and the farmers living along
the road have been benefited not a
little.

A special dispatch from Kendall to

Francis, for several years one OF the
best known men of the North Moe
casin camp, committed suicide last
Friday afternoon about 2 o'clock by
taking a dose of poison.
It was at first thought that Francis
died of heart failure but, after a
searching examination, the coroner's
jury, whose deliberations were pre-
sided over by Justice of the Peace
Kelly, reached the conclusion that it
was a case of self destruction.
While the friends of Francis can
not conceive OF any cause for such
rash act, they know that he has
been exceedingly respondent for sew

had never made any threats of self
destruction.
Francis was about so years of age

MRS. LONG IS BADLY HURT

Injuries which may yet terminate
fatally were sustained last Friday af-
ternoon by Mrs. A. B. Long, the
wife of we'll known rancher who
lives on Spring creek, few miles
below this city.
Mrs. Long and her son were on
their way to this city when the ac-
cident occurred AS they started to
ascend the hill just this side of the
poor farm, the team became fright
ened at canvass which was spread
over the fence, wheeled around and
threw the occupants OF the buggy to
the ground.
The son, Charles, was but slightly
injured, but Mrs. Long was declared
to be very seriously hurt after an
examination by DR.. Att1., who was
summoned to the county hospital, to
which the lady was taken shortly
after the accident.
