DIR. J. K. GLIDER, JR.
Is Pleased With His Work in Cordo-
va, Argentine Republic-1etter
To DR.. Wolling.

MANY have asked me about my young
friend, James Glider, now in the far
south, that T have thought it best to
give to The H.rald and News the fol-
lowing interesting letter received
from him by the last ship.
And now a word OF explanation.
DR.. Glider is now in the Argentine
Republic. Sout,,l America, at a city
Of $4,000 inhabitants called Cordo'
va, far to the west, not very far from
the foot Of the Andes mountains. The
trip from New York takes % days,
with a stop Of one day in Rio, Brazil.
When he reached Buenos Aires he
was received by my friend DR.. Me-
Laughlin, pastor Of the English
American church, in that city, and
by him presented to DR.. Newhery, an
English dentist. at whose homo he is
now living. With these words Of ex-
PLANTATION 7 hand you the following
letter.

please pardon my delay in writing
YOU, but while in Buenos Aires I was
continually on the 60, and since ar
irving in this city have been very
hard at work. At present am living
with DR.. Newberv, and only get out
of the house about three times a
week to take a walk somewhere. He
has his offices in his home. which
makes things very convenient tor
working. I like the doctor and Mrs
Newbery very much, and they are
very nice to me.
He is the only dentist in the city
that amounts to anything. and OF
course has everything his own way IN
regard to practice and prices. This
is a nice. quiet city. entirely differ
ent from ANYTHING American. From
a business standpoint, though, [ think
that it offers a great opportunity.
It seems to be almost as natural

citv in the States.
Well. we had an awfully nice trip
coming down, but a bit tlresome

The American party made nearly
a clean sweep in Salt Lake last Tues
day. Mayor Bransford received
more votes than the republican and
and fusion candidates combined,
while the other candidates on the
American ticket were elected by
good pluralitles. The American
party candidates for councilmeu
were elected in every ward except
the Third, where one republican
and one democrat won out.
In Ogden the republican ticket,
headed by VIM. Giassman, was
elected.

GEORGETOWN NOTES.

Georgetown, Nov.-The resi-
dence of John G. Hoff, Jr., was de
stroyed by fire last Saturday night.
The fire started about 9 O'Clock and
before help could be summoned the
blaze had gained such headway
that it was impossible for the men
to enter the house for the pur-
pose of removing any of the furni.
ture, consequently but very few ar
tlcles were saved. Mr.. Hoff esti.
mates his loss at about $1,000 and as
he carried no insurance, the loss
falls quite heavily on him. How

to rebuild once. The fire started

OF IRRIGATION
Big Exposition at Chicago This
Month to Demonstrate what
the West is Doing.
w hat has the farm TO offer?

What has the farm TO offer?
The reply to this question will be
evident to all who visit the United
States land irrigation exposition
that is to take place in the Chicago
Coliseum from Nov. 20 to Dec. 4.
The exposition will be the first of
its kind, and the novelty of it has
appealed all who have heard of the
plan.
Pledges already given render II
certain that the display will outclass
any of the shows ever seen in the
Coliseum, which has become famed
as the best place in the middle west
for high-class exhibits. In addition
to complete display of the pro-
ducts that have bought wealth from
the soil, there are to be specially
designed decorations, panoramas
and paintings, all arranged artist
ically, and these are to surpass all
previous efforts.
The exposition is not to be mag
nified country fair, it is to be unique
its success Is assured beyond the
shadow Of doubt.
Primarily the exposition is meant
for those who lack knowledge OF
the wonderful opportunities open
to the settler. There are thousands
toiling III eastern offices and factor.

sort will come as blessing, fol
they are tired of their chains, but

will mean the revelation of ne,

horizon will be boadened and the
will receive a new inspiration.

CASHED TWO
BAD CHECKS
Nose Lewis and Jack
WedeI the Victims
Forger Captured at
North Platte.

A week ago last Friday one A.
J. Smitt, alias w. A. Smith passed
two forged checks in this city. One
for s75, payable to A. J. Smitt,
was cashed by Nose Lewis, and the
other one for S25, payable to w. A.
Smith, was cashed by Jack Wedel.
The checks were drawn on the
First National bank and each was
signed, "E. Strong by F. M.
Stark"
At each place the fellow repre-
sented that he had been working
for Stark on his ranch at Soda
Springs. Al Nose Lewis store he
purchased a $25 overcoat and pre-
senting the check in payment, re.
ceived $50 in cash. A few hours
later MIR. Lewis thinking the check
might be forgery, took 1t to the
First National bank. After care
full inspection of the writing CASH
ier Sullivan expressed himself AZ
believing that the check was worth
less. Mr.. Sullivan got in telephone
communication with Mr.. Stark at
at Soda Springs ana from him
learned that no one by the name of
Smltt had been employed on his
ranch and that he had not issued
a check payable to anyone by that
name. About this time Jack Wedel
discovered that he had been
"caught" to the tune of $25 and by
comparing notes with Mr.. Lewis,
it was learned that Smith and Smltt
were one and the same fellow.
Sheriff Bulge was Immediately.
notified of the transaction and after
obtaining description of the forg-
er, started on his trail. Wednes-
day of last week the Sheriff OBJ
tanned information which led him I'd
believe that the fellow had started
east with shipment of cattle from
Soda Springs. Sheriff Bulge started
in pursuit Wednesday night on
lNo. 8, and nabbed Smitt at North
Platte, Neb., arriving there just in
time to get out to the stoekyards
as Smitt was alightly from the
stock train.

DRY FARM
POTATOES
Nels Hairup Has Good
Success Raising Po-
tatoes without Ir-
eating.

III some one had declared IeW
years ago that potatoes could be
grown IN Idaho without irrigation,
he would have been laughed at; in
fact most people would have de-
clared the author of such statement
to be fit subject for an insane
asylum.
However, within the last two or
three years it has been proven that
irrigation is not absolutely essential
to the raising of good spuds.
Last spring Nels Hairup, one of
the enterprislng farmers of St.
Charles, concluded that he would
try raising a small tract of potatoes
without irrig t,ioi,, aud planted two
and one half acres in what are
known as the Blue Button potatoe.
He gave them proper cultivation,
but the land did not get a drop of
moisture aside from what little rain
that fell As result of his expert
Inent last week lie harvested very
close to 500 bushels of potatoes
mot little, warty, measly potatoes,
but as fine spuds as could be grown
anywhere in the United States, many
of them weighing three pounds and
over Tuesday Mr.. Halrup brought
1900 pounds of these potatoes to
Montpelier and sold them at q
slight advance over the regular
market price.
He stated that next year he in
tended TO grow larger acreage OF
dry land spuds, and will plant none
but the Blue Button, as they seem te
Yield better under that method thar
any other variety that has beer
tried, so far as he has been able tC

for seed.
Mr.. Hairup also raises consider
cradle fruit, and this year be wa
awarded the first premium at tn,
Paris fair for the best display o
fruit He had on exhibition /.
Varities of apples, besides pears
plums and other fruit.
The results obtained by Mr.
Hairup should stimulate the grow
ing of dry land potatoes in thi
county, as many of the farmers hav
patches of land that cannot be irri
gated, which would probably pre-
duce just as good yields of potatoe
as Mr.. Hairup's land did.
Fruit growing should also /,

ASKS governor
FOR A PARDON
Petition of Illicit Retailer Was Signed
BY Members of Law Enforce
ment League.

Jackson, Miss, Dec. 14.-Governor
Noel has been petitioned to grant a
pardon to A. Correro, an Italian con.
victed in the circuit court of Washing
ton county of illicit retailing, and
whose sentence on the county farm
was recently affirmed by the Supreme
court.
A singular feature Of the appeal for
clemency is the fact that the pardon
petition is signed by the members Of
the Law Enforcement League at
Greenville, an organization which
brought about the conviction of Cor
zero, and employed counsel to aid in
his prosecution.
Sympathy plays a prominent part
in the case, as Correro is an old man
and broken in health. He has given a
pledge to the Law Enforcement
League that, in event of a pardon, he
will not again violate the liquor laws.

DEATH
CAUSES FEUD
A Girl, Love Sick Youth, Quarrel,
Fight, Suicide and Family Feud
In Alabama Town.
(By Associated Press.)

Cuba, Ala, Dec. IA family feud
has sprung up here between the fam.
lilies of oliver C. Ulmer and Ben Bruis
ter, both prominent and old families
of Butler, Ala.
Miss Lucy Ulmer prevented her
father from killing Bruister here Sun
day. Ulmer became involved in a
quarrel with Bruister and was badly
stabbed in the neck and may die. VI
mer was about to fire on Bruister after
being stabbed when his daughter
grabbed his arm.
The fight grew out of the death of
| Cromwell Ulmer, the son of the
wounded man. Young Ulmer is said
to have committed suicide by shoot
ing himself on Bruister's doorstep a
week ago to-day. The boy was in love
with Bruister's daughter, but the
Bruister family objected to the match
on account Of the age of the boy and
girl. After delivering some letters to
Miss Bruister, Ulmer is said to have
drawn a pistol and fired into his own
brain:
Some of the young mans friends
laugh at the suicide story because he
had bad bruise on his head and he
was allowed to lie dead on the ground
for a long time. This has caused bad
blood between both families and fur
Their trouble is expected.
Barton Ulmer another son, was ar.
rested here Sunday night for swearing
to seek vengeance upon his fathers
assailant. J. B. Ulmer, a brother of
the wounded man, reached Butler to-
day. Miss Ulmer is Frustrated.
The feeling in the community is
running high and many threats are
heard against both sides.

Against Bond observation-disclosures

Special to The NeUs.

Special to The NetUs.
Jackson, Miss, Dec. 13.-When the
city council of Jackson meets Tues
day afternoon to receive the protest
from taxpayers against the proposed
$25S, 1000 bond issue for municipal i'm
provement purposes, alleged to bear
the names of 20 per cent of the tax
payers of the community, a careful
comparison of the document will be
made with the tax rolls to ascertain
whether all of the signers have legal
right to protest against the proposed
expenditure.
Members of the aldermanic body
have reasons to believe that sigma
lures have been obtained in haphaz-
ard fashion, especially among the
negro population, and that goodly
number of the signers are not bona
fide taxpayers. In event the petition
still bears the names of 20 per cent
of the taxpayers after the purging
process is completed, special elec-
ton on the bond issue question will
be ordered, to take place about the
middle of January.
During the past week number of
towns in Mississippi have made ar
rangements to float bond issues for
public purposes. Hazelhurst is ar
ranging to expend bond issue of 49,
600 for the purchase of a public park.
The town of Water Valley will float
an issue of $4,000 to buy depot
site and right-of.way for the Water
Valley & Southeastern Railroad Com
pany. Centerville will expend $4,000
on the improvement of her water
works plant. Leflore county is thor
oughly enthused on the subject of
good roads, and the board of super
visors has decided to float a bond
issue of 100000 to be used in build
ing better public highways. In Lau-
derdale county similar enterprise,
and on a much more elaborate scale,
is proposed, the plan being to issue

Curing Catarrh
Accept Our Advice and Try This
Remedy at Our Risk.

Catarrh is a disease of the mucous
membrane. The mucous membrane
is, one may say, the interior lining
of the body. Catarrrh therefore may
exist in any part of the system.
When the catarrhal poison attacks
the mucous membrane, inflammation
and congestion are produced and ma
ture fails to throw off the accumu
lated poisons. The organ which has
been afflicted ceases to perform its
proper function as nature intended IL
should. The result is, complication
upon complication, which may lead
to other even more serious Affections
We honestk believe RexapMucu
Tone will a wonders t9~ard over
coming catafh. 1t is p6de from the
prescription pf an eminent physician
who made huestudy of catarrh. and
his great success with this remedy
was an enviable one.
We want you If you are sufferer
from catarrh in any form, to give
Rexall Mucu-Tone a thorough trial.
Use it with regularity and persistency
for reasonable time, then If you are
not satisfied, come back and tell US.
This is certainly the fairest offer that
anyone could make and should attest
our sincerity of purpose. It comes in
two sizes, prices so cents and $1.00.

WHILE YOU ARE YOUNG.

A great writer puts something of
the whole of himself into every book
he understanding of the child he
once was as well as the man he now
is. So when you read his book both
as a child and when you are grown,
you are in the same sort of relation
ship with him as with the friend who
has been your friend all your life.
And that is one of the finest and most
complete things that can come to you.
But especially the tales first written
when the world was young, should be
read while you, too, are young; or
you may never understand the adven-
turous, fanciful quality that, for all
Its apparent humdrumness, goes to
make up so large a part Of this old
world. - Hildegarde Hawthorne's
