frame up story which they think

Of this kind with silent contempt but
thought we would squash this one
just for instance.
Old Blabmouth, who always hides

says that the city marshal went down
to Butchers park the other day when
the turkey shoot was on and made
the crowd quit shaking dice for tur-
keys, and that the mayor then went
down to the park and told the crowd
to 60 ahead and shake dice for tur-
keys as long as they wanted to and
that ut would be all right"
The place where the turkey shoot
was pulled off Is outside Of Solomon
and Dickinson county, and neither the
mayor or marshal have any authority
there whatever We are not keeping
cases on the movements and actions
Of the marshal, but we do have some
knowledge of what the mayor does,
and we desire to remark that the
mayor did not, at Butchers park or
any other place. either one day this
week or at any other time, tell any
person or persons that It was all
right for them to shake dice for tur1
keys, etc. And to make It q little
more interesting we will make Old
Blabmouth a present Of nice. crisp

produce who ever saw the mayor in

the two days that the last turkey

ID DON'T D SCARE sALINA.
Old Patents Likely to Protect the
Land Owners.

Commenting on the Union Pacific
survey through Abilene 400 feet wide
the salina Union says:
The announcement that the Union
Pacific is preparing to claim the zoo
feet on each side of Its tracks does
not frighten Salina people. It's be-
lieyed there will be no trouble here.
There Is little doubt, however, that
il the Union Pacific is sustained In
its case, It could, If it wanted to, seize
some property in various cities along
its route, and take buildings or what-
ever else might be on that property
Bnt It would mot be apt to do It.
However, in Salinas case, most OF
the land lying along the front ana
a,nce built on, comes from patents
given prior to the Union Pacific land
grant. Consequently the railroad
grant cannot effect this land.
There have been numerous incidents
IN this nelghborhood wherein this
care was tested
FOR instance some years ago, the
I-niou Pacific claimed certain land
along the schipple estate, The late
Mr. schipple fought the case in the
courts. He proved that his patents
were issued prior to the railroad
grant and the court held that the land
belonged to Mr. schipple. The rail-
road company accordingly had to have
ne land condemned and pay apprais-
ers' values for It.
some yearh ago. when s. 2. Don

assessor assessed Donmyers elevator
located near the UniOn Pacific tracks
as personal property. Mr.. DOnmyeI
saw the point at once. If he paid q

Former Abilene Man Has Write Up
in Church Paper.

From the Christian Endeayoi
World: 1t would be interesting ID
find out how many OF the governors
Of commonwealths of the United
States are not only moral men, bui
distinctly religious men. We believe
that there has been very great
gain along this line Of late years, An
immoral man, II his immortality were
known, would have no chance to BE-
elected In any one Of our many com
mohWealths. II the candidate Is .
distinctly Christian man, SO much
the better, in the mind Of the average
eIector.
These are the men that are sought
more and more for positions Of trust
and responsibility, and this is the
kind Of a man whom the great state
Of Idaho has chosen for It's chief ex-
ecutiYe. Governor James H. Brady
Is q man who has made his own way
in the world, but that way is a good
way, and in the prime Of his man1
hood he has reached the highest Of
ficial position which the people Of his
state can confer. What other honors
await him in the larger field OF ma
tional politics, the future must deter
mine. He would be a credit beyond
doubt to any position to which he
may be elected.
Our readers Will be particularly In
terested in him because OF his dis
tlnctively Christian characqS A
member Of the Congregational church
he throws his influence on the right
side Of every religious and moral
question.
When the Christian Endeavors met
in Boise last spring for their annual
convention he was one Of the first to
welcome them, giving them in his
beautiful home ana official residence
In the capitol the state q great re-
ceptIon, which was attended By some
400 Endeavorers. In addition to this,
he invited the ministers Of Boise and
Of the state who we're attending the
convention to meet the president Of
the United Society at dinner at his
home, and expressed unbounded in-
terest and confidence In the organiza-
tIon and in the work that II 10 doing.

CHARGES AGAINST DR.. COOK

CHARGES AGAINST DR.. COOK
There are so many cranks abroad
in the land and so many people who
are hunting and creating sensation
that the affidavits of Capt. Loose and
Mr.. Dunkle to the effect that they
were hired by DR.. Frederick A. Cook
to manufacture his North pole data
must be taken by the public with a
grain of salt until the matter is in
vestigated. On their face the aft
davis of men who would sell them
selves for such purpose are sub
jects of suspicion, and furthermore,
the acceptance of the statements as
true stamps DIR. Cook as not only a
knave, but fool. A knave because
he is undertaking to perpetrate a
colossal fraud upon the public, and
a fool because he has handled his as
sistants so clumsily. At any rate an
investigation will follow, at DR..
Cooks instance if he is innocent GER
tainly, and upSn the demand of the
public otherwise. We have all along
felt and expressed great sympathy
for and belief in DR.. Cooks sin
cerity, but if he is the colossal fraud
these men have painted him, he
ought to be exposed and held up
for public seorn as an imposter.

There they found her lying on a

protect her from the cold. She was

THE COMMANDMENT.

At dawn of the dark and dreary
day of December 18th, 1862, the
firing of a signal gun from Scott S
Hill began one of the most merciless
bombardments in the annals Of the
dreadful war of 1876. The
shrek of shoe and shell was mingled
in indescribable horror with the crash
of falling timbers as the bombs tore
their way through the houses and
homes Of the doomed town. Forum
ately for them, many Of the inhabit-
ants, taking fright at the panOply OF
war on the hills surrounding their
city, had sought shelter and safety.
The few remaining could not or
would not leave. The suffering and
sacrifice of these people cannot be
fully told.
Gen. Lee, in letter to his daugh-
ter describing the scene, pays a
beautiful tribute to the heroism OF
the women of the place. Today, near
the anniversary of the bombardment
of Fredericksburg, we are fortunate
in being able to publish in another
column the experience and recollec-
tons of one of our ladies, who, as a
little girl, was among those whose
fate it was to remain in the city.
Her beautiful and thrilling narrative
Of this never-to-be- forgotten day
will be read with interest by all our
people, and especially by the younger
generation. Lest we forget" lest

ARE MICROBES IN YOUR HAIR?
II Has Been Proved That Microbes
Cause Badness.

Professor Unna Of Hamburg. Ger
many, and Dr. Sabourand, the leading
French dermatologist, discovered that a
microbe causes badness. Their theory
has time and again been amply verified
through research experiments carried
on under the observation of eminent
scientists This microbe lodges in the
Sebur. Which is the natural hair oil,
and when permitted to flourish il de-
stroys the hair follicles and in time the
pores entirely close. and the scalp gradu-
ally takes on a shiny appearance. When
this happens there is no hope Of the
growth Of hair being revived.
Dandruf is a contagious disease,
which is largely due TO a destructive
microbe, which when left to pursue its
course causes itching scalp, falling hair
and badness. Dandruff is caused by the
microbe affecting the glands which
produce the sebaceous matter, which
latter then unnaturally dries up and
scales off.
We have a remedy which will, we
honestly believe, remove dandruff, eX-
terminate the microbe, promote good
circulation in the scalp and around the
hair roots, tighten and revitalize the
hair roots and overcome badness, so
long as there is any life left in the hair
roots.
We back up this statement with our
own personal guarantee that this rem
edy called Rexall "93' Hair Tonic will
be supplied free Of all cost to the user
if il fails 10 do as we state.

disease; yet it is in no sense a dye. Rex
all "93" Hair Tonic accomplishes these
results by making every hair root,
follicle and pigment gland strong and
active. and by stimulating natural
flow Of acknowledgement throughout the
hair cells.
Rexall "93" Hair Tonic is entirely

ceedingly pleasant to use and will not
gum the hair or permanently soil the
