Exceptional
Equipment

Of the California Fig Syrup Co. and the
scientific attainments of its chemists have
rendered possible the production of Syrup
of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA, in all of its
excellence, by obtaining the pure medic
inal principles of plants known to act most
benefcially and combining them most
skillfully, in the right proportions, with
its wholesome and refreshing Syrup of
California Figs.
As there is only one genuine Syrup of
Figs and Elixir of SIENNA and as the gen.
uine is manufactured by an original
method known to the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, it is always necessary to buy the
genuine to get its beneficial effects.
A knowledge of the above facts enables
one to decline limitations or to return them
if, upon viewing the package, the full name
of the California Fig SyrupCo. is not found
printed on the front thereof.

MONEY MADE IN LIVE STOCK
IN CENTRAL CANADA.

w. J. Henderson, visiting Seattle,
writes the Canadian Government
Agent at Spokane, Wash, and says
Il have neighbors in Central Canada
raising wheat, barley and oats for the
past 20 years, and are now getting
from the same land 20 to 80 bushels of
wheat per acre, 40 to 60 bushels of
oats.
1T was the first week Of May when
got my tent pitched, but the farmers
all around had finished putting in
their crops, so only got fifteen acres
broke and seeded. They advised me
as it was late not to put in much
wheat, so l put in five acres Of wheat
and ten acres oats, one-half acre pota-
toes and vegetables. All kinds of veg
etables grow well up there, sweet corn,
tomatoes, onions, carrots, peas, beans,
cabbage. My wheat yielded about 20
bushels per acre, for which I got rs
cents, others got 80 cents; oats
threshed 35 bushels per acre, for which
l got 35 cents per bushel. You see
was three weeks late in getting them
in, still l was satisfied.
From my observation, there is more
money made in stock, such as cattle,
horses and sheep, as prices are high
for such, and it costs nothing to raise
them, as horses live the year around
out on the grass. In fact, farmers turn
their work horses out for the winter,
and they come in fresh and fat in the
spring. Cattle live out seven or eight
months. They NOW the prairie grass
and stack it for winter and give oat
straw. My neighbors sold steers at
$40 each, and any kind Of horse
that can pillow, from $4,000 up. raised
60 chickens and pigs, as pork, chick
ems, butter and eggs pay well and al
ways a good market for anything
man raises, so l have every reason to
be thankful, besides, at the end of
three years l get my patent for home
stead. l heard Of no homestead sell
ing for less than $4,000, so where I'M
der the sun could an old man or
young man do better?"

BLIZZARD IN COLORADO.

Denver, Colo, Feb. 15.-The worst
blizzard of the winter ragged in the
mountains Saturday and Saturday
night. and as a result railways lines
that have been tied up nearly a week
and which the officials believed were
about to be opened, will probably con-
tinue blockaded for several days more.
The blizzard struck Denver about 1
o'clock Saturday afternoon and con-
tinued until 9 o'clock Sunday night.

Remarkable Robbery.

The robbery was remarkable for its
originality of daring. 1t took place
within eight miles of Denver, within
less than two miles of Fort Logan, the
United States military reservation,
and at spot where habitations are
plentiful. Yet so thorough was the
work of the robbers, and so well were
their plans laid, that they had fully
an hour and a half start of the Off
GERS.
Search of the vicinity of the hold
up indicates that third man and pos
sibly four were engaged in the rob-
berry, that a rubber tired buggy was
in waiting for the actual hold-ups, and
that torpedoes and red signal fires
were used in an attempt to stop the
train before the automatic revolvers of
the men on the tender succeeded in
doing so.
From the manner in which the hold
I'D was accomplished it is thought pos
sible that the robbers are the men
responsible for the holdup of the Den
yer & Rio Grande train last May,
when Messenger Wright was killed.

MAIL CAR ROBBED;
$4,000 SECURED
BANDITS TAKE EIGHTEEN PACK
AGES OF REGISTERED MAIL.
HOLD-UP OCCURRED NEAR DENVER
Climbed on Coal Tender and Made
Engineer Stop Train.

Denver Feb. 15.-Almost within the
city limits of Denver, at what Is
known as Military Junction, masked
robbers at 2:50 Saturday morning ap-
peared on the coal tender and COM
PEELED the engineer to stop the west
bound Denver G. Rio Grande passen-
ger train No. 4, known as the ATTAIN
tic Express" Amid a fussilade of re-
volver shots from one of the robbers,
the other forced the mail clerk to open
the door of his car. The robber then
searched each piece Of registered
mail in the car, threw the packages
he desired into a sack and jumped off.
At the points of revolvers, the en-
gineer, fireman, mail and baggage
clerks were marched up the track a
distance, then told to go back to their
train. The robbers then disappeared
with their booty.
That they were thoroughly familiar
with the railway postal business
seems evident, as the robber in the
mail car threw aside package after
package after examining them care
fully.
Armed forces of deputies and
squads of soldiers from Fort Logan
and police are searching the country
around Fort Logan and the foothills
in search of the bandits, but no trace
Of them has been found.
Secured Much Loot.
Denver, Feb. 15.-That the hold up
of the Denver & Rio Grande passen-
ger train No. near Denver Saturday
morning was the work of three in
stead of two robbers and that the rob-
berry of the mail car gave them loot
of possibly $4,000, is indicated by
the investigation of the postoffice and
railroad officials. So far no tangible
clew to the identity or whereabouts of
the robbers has been found but it
seems probable that the men came to
Denver and are now hiding in this
city.
Eighteen packages of registered
mail were secured One of these
packages is said to have contained a
large sum of money, but until thor
ough stirring up Of the missing pack
ages is possible, the exact amount Sc
cured by the robbers cannot be ascer
tanned.

Mack to be i'll. and has had Moore at

When Manager E1dredge had the house

was signed with Mr.. Mack, and the prop
OsitiOn was made to Moore that he work
with the company at the salary he was
getting and be ready to lake Mr.. Mack's
place whenever Mr.. Mack became III.
Moore refused at that time to have any
thing to do with such an arrangement
and the result was that Mr.. Mack be-
came very i'll one night and Miss Doug
las refused to play with such a sick man.
and there was no entertainment. Man
ageT PeltOn. however. has been able to
overcome Mr.. MOOTe'S scruples. and was
threatening on Saturday night that If
Mr.. Mack's health did not improve he
would put Moore on in his place. which
MI. PeitOn seemed to think would have
a beneficial effect upon Mr.. Mack's
health.
Mr.. Mack has been feeling so badly,
however. for a week, that il has been
necessary to have a raine nurse with
him for a part of the time. This trained
nurse, a male nurse. was with Mr.. Mack
in his room at the TOuraine hotel last
night.

tire last night what had become Of Mir.
Mack and said that Mi. Mack's physician
had ordered the actor to take three days
rest.
Mr.. Mack is not drinking. is he. Mr..

HE was around here a while tonight di-

He is not well and his doctor has ordered
him to rest for three days."
