ORIGIN OF THE NAME IDAHO

The name idaho" is ascribed to
Colonel Craig by his friend, Joaquin
Miller, the poet of the Sierras." All
authorities do not agree with Mr.. MIL
Ter. but his letter on the subject is at
least interesting, II not authoritative,
reprinted from an old time issue Of
the Owyhee Avalanche:
Guelph, Ontario, Canada,
July 80, 1880.
Dear Sir.--The distinction Of nam
ing idaho" certainly belongs to my
old friend, Colonel Craig (since de-
ceased), of Craig's mountain, Nez
Perez county. AS for some fellow
naming 1t In congress, bah! The
name was familiar in 5000 mems
mouths as they wallowed through
the snow In 81 on their way to the
Orofino mines long before congress
or any man Of congress had ever
heard of the new discovery.
The facts are these: was riding
pony express at the time rumors
reached US, through the Nez Perez
Indians, that gold was to be found
on the headwaters and tributaries Of
the Salmon river. had lived with
the Indians: and Colonel Craig, who
had spent most of his life with them,
often talked with me about possible
discoveries In the mountains to the
right as we rode to orofino. and

USE AND ABUSE OF PATENT
MEDICINES.

In this day and age of fakes and
takers, perhaps the most noticeable
fakes are the patent medicines, face
lotions, etc. We cannot pick up a
newspaper or magazine but we find
therein flaring advertisements of pat
ent medicines. Consumption, typhoid
fever, catarrh and thousand other
ills are pictured in direful attire.
Long lists of symptoms are given in
Guiding conditions from which no
healthy persons are free. And all
this is followed by a promise to
promptly cure all these ills If the
patient will but use the advertised
medicines.
Thousands of persons use patent
medicines. They read these adver-
tisements and with a great credulity
and faith, worthy of better cause,
send away their well-earned dollars
to some fake doctor for a trial Of
the great remedy. When the medi-
cine, with its vague directions, is
received, 1t is taken bottleful after
bottleful until the patients faith
cures him or he becomes Disguised.
In some instances the victim remon-
strates and demands his money re-
turned but instead is told that he
failed to follow the vague or impos-
sible directions accompanying the
medicine.
Not all patent medicines are worth
less and not all manufacturers are
deceivers. But the majority are. The
doctors are not physicians, except in
their own imagination The engrav-
ings of the factories where these
medicines are made are not engrav-
ings of real buildings, but rather of
buildings existing only in the print
er's brain. II one were to search for
these buildings he would be woefully
disappointed for instead of finding
DR.. So and So in large factory he
would be found washing bottles and
preparing compounds In little four
by-six laboratory in his own private
dwelling u
Patent medicines are usually not
all that they would seem to be. They
consist of very large per cent of
alcohol and very small per cent Of
drugs. "Peruna, the World Rene
dy," is of this type, and thousands
Of persons taking this medicine are
being stimulated by alcohol and not
cured by drugs as they so fondly
believe. All Differs" are of this
character and person imbibing too
much of this so-called medicine may
become intoxicated
Other patent medicines are com
posed Of few harmless and CHEAP
compounds the object Of such reme-
dies being to not violently iniure any
patient while putting plenty of money
in the manufacturers pocket. OF
this class of medicines are the many
vegetable compounds"

many as fourteen or fifteen different

east of Jeremie, one of the disaf-
fected ports. After severe fighting the
government forces were routed and
driven back to Miragoane, about 20
miles distant. Miragoane is about 20
miles from Port au Prince
1t is reported that General Cyriaque
has taken refuge in the German consul
late there. Some of the wounded were
brought to Port au Prince by the Hal
tian gunboat Centenaire
President Nord Alexis, who has al
ways shown confidence in the ability
of the soldiers to suppress the revo-
lutionary movement, has decided to
take the offensive with three divisions
of disciplined troops, which have been
concentrated here.
The United States cruiser Tacoma,
under command of Captain John Hood,
and the French training ship Duguay
Trouin have arrived here and this has
gone far toward reassuring the foreign
residents.
Reports have been current that the
revolutionary army is marching on
Port au Prince, but even if these re-
ports are true, a considerable time must
elapse before it arrives. The residents
have shown no signs of excitement,
but the diplomatic corps have decided
to prevent the entry of the ,revolu-
tionists for the purpose of pillage by
having forces landed from the waFships
here.

TAFT DENIES Offer
OF CABINET PLACE
Frank Hitchcock May Become
Postmaster General, but
'Tis Not Decided
Especial Dispatch to The Call

HOT SPRINGS. Va. Nov. 2S.-Maybe
Frank III. Hitchcock will be post
master general in Taft's cabinet; prob
ably, in fact, but there is no certainty
about 1T tonight. The president elect
this evening denied that he had offered
the place to Hitchcock. He denied it
with considerable anger. He could not
understand why the the fiat statement
that the portfolio had been offered and
accepted had been sent out, when he.
Taft, yesterday had said that he had
not authorized the statement.
I deny it, he said heatedly. Il can
not build my cabinet that way
Those responsible for the unqualified
statement of the offer and acceptance
said they were led to believe it's truth
by the words and manner of Hitchcock
himself
All these answers were given in re-
ply to Taft's demand for details of
Hitchcock's manner and conversation
on the subject.
What adds to the embarrassment OF
Hitchcock's position is that an author
itative" announcement was made in
New York and not here.

remarkable woman she was. She is
now called "the charmer of men," Her
salon was dazzlingly brilliant.
Her last lover, the rich widower
Bordel, in whose eyes she declared she
wanted to justify herself, furnishes a
clew to a motive for the crime. He is
very wealthy and lives in a famous
chateau near Mesiers. in the depart
ment of the Ardennes. He is not inn
plicated in the crime. When seen by
q journalist this man, who is the father
Of three children, protested frantically
at the disgrace an exposure would
bring. He said he was ready to COM
nit suicide, but nevertheless he made a
clean breast of his relations with Nine.
Steinheil. He described how he had
met her at a reception at the Stein
heils. The gathering was a distin-
guished one.
''WAS EXQUISITE IDYL,
He soon got into the habit of meet
ing her at the Green Lodge" a villa
at Bellevue, which Mime. Steinheil
rented under the name of Nine Pre-
vost. Mariette Wolff, the cook, whose
son was accused by Mime. Steinheil of
being guilty of the murders, lived at
the lodge and was her mistress con-
fldante. This was early last year.
For a month it was an exquisite
idyl' said this man in describing the
episode. Nine. Steinheil said she
adored me, and at each meeting she
made new avowals and swore I was
the only lover she had ever had.
She told me of her past" the wild
over continued to the newspaperman,
''and denied this gossip of her rela-
tions with other men. She insisted par
ticularly that the Faure story was q
legend, and said she could prove that
she was home I'll at the time of NJ.
Faure's death. She admitted, however,
that she hated her husband and said he
led an Infamous existence She de-
tested her mother also for having
forced her to marry Steinheil She
assured me that she would get q di-
vorce and marry me-"
SCALES FELL FROM EYES
Continuing his explanation, this man
related how the scales gradually fell
from his eyes. When the spell was
broken he returned home. Nine. Stein
he'll, however. continued to pursue him
and telephoned him every day. On the
by long distance telephone, but the
wire was not working well and he
could barely understand what she said
Finally she exclaimed:
Il am satisfied, for I have heard your
voice; that is enough for me-"
The next day, when he learned of
the murders, he suspected the truth
and came to Paris. He saw Nine Stein
he'll and told her never to see him
again until she had cleared herself.
The prevailing belief in Paris today
is that Nine. Steinheil deliberately had
her husband and mother assassinated.
