The Whiskey Pirates (boot Ieggers)
are getting busy again. Last Wednes-
day night as the patrons of the New
Opera House were going to the Fall

IN front Of Brown 5 restaurant obstruct-
ed by an excited crowd standing around
2 bo0ze-soal1ed man VINO had been as
saulted by two or tnres other booze be
fuddled individuals. HIS nose was bad
" mashed, he had d cut over his left
eye, and his face looked like scramble1
eggs. lie had bled profusely and the
Sidewalk, where ne lay looked like a
slaughter house sham0Ies. Dr. Snyder
was called and ordered him taken to
the hospital where he was properly
cared for at the expense, we presume,
OF the county or city. Another one ef
the rioters, we learned next day, was
lying upstairs over the restaurant with
q broken head, caused by coming IL
contact with 2 booze bottle welded by
one of MS drunken companions. The
marshal could not be found, so the de-
patty sheriff was called and dispersed
the crowd.
4 resident VINO was present remarked
that over thirty years ago, the building
in which the restaurant is situated,
contained a dance hall and booze en-
poriun, and that two soldiers from Fort
HAYS were shot and killed and fell on
almost the identical spot where lay the
booze-soaked individual, Z victim of the
modern whiskey pirates History had
repeated itself as it were.
On Thanksgiving evening, another
aItercation occurred in which a few
brains mixed with vile rotgut whiskey,
caused a citizen of the city to strike his
neighbor over the head with a baseball
bat-friends thought he was dead-but
he came back to earth again.
On Sunday, November 18th, another
citizen of Hays got booze muddled-so
he says-and broke into box car and
stole a five gallon keg of whiskey, a
case of beer, a quantity of canned
goods and bucket of candy.

Girls With Beautiful Faces
or Graceful Figures

American girls have a worldwide
reputation for beauty, but, at the same
time, there are girls in our cities who
possess neither beauty of face nor
form, because in these instances they
suffer from nervousness, the result of
disorders of the womanly organism.
AT regular intervals they suffer so
mitch that their strength leaves them;
they are SO Frustrated that it takes days
for them to recover the.r strength. OF
course, such periodic distress has its
bad effect on the nervous system. The
withered and drawn faces, the dark
circles and crows feet about the eyes,
the straight figure without those
curves which lend SO much to feminine
beauty are the unmistakable signs of
womanly disorders.
When girl becomes woman, when
a woman becomes mother, when a
woman passes through the changes of
middle life, are the three periods of
life when health and strength are most
needed to withstand the pain and
distress often caused by severe organic
disturbances.
AT these critical times women are
best fortified by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, an old remedy
of proved worth that keeps the entire
female system perfectly regulated and
in excellent condition.
Mothers, if your DAUGHTERS are weak,
lack ambition, are troubled with head
aches, lassitude and are pale and
sickly, DR.. Pierces Favorite Prescrip-
ton is just what they need to surely
bring the bloom of health to their
cheeks and make them strong and
healthy.
If you are a sufferer, if you daugh-
ter, mother, sister need help, get Dr..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription in liquid
or tablet form. Then address DR.. Pierce,
Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, and re-
ceive confidential advice from staff of
specialists, that's free; also 136-page

i w. BIGGANE SEEKS TO BE AID
MINIsrRATOR OF PETERSON
ESTATE WHICH HOLDS MIN
ING GROUND AT HAMILTON

j. w. Biggane cashier of the First
National bank, fled a petition In the
clerks office last Friday for letters
of administration OF tho estate oi
Peter A. Peterson. who was found
dead in August, 1916 in a tunnel at
Hamilton.
The lure of the white metal which
sent clouds of prospectors into the
unoccupied sections of the state In
an almost frantic search caught Pc
terson In It's tentscled grasp. Yet
prosperity never knocked at the
door of the silver miners cabin.
The petition recites that the en-
tire assets of the aged pathfinder
include the Coe and blackjack mining
claims In the White Pine mining dis
trict. II is also set forth that the
properties have for long time been
unproductiye and that the value ot
the ground is uncertain.
Peterson had made his home al
Hamilton since the halcyon days ol
1869 and devoted his energies almost
entirely To mining. When his re-
sources dwindIed to mere nothing. the
aged prospector would seek employ
ment at other vocations. utilizing his
savings toward further demonstrating
the worth of his mineral zone.
II was while engaged In his fayorite
task that the aged prospector met his
death. Peterson had been a member
of the Odd Fellows lodge for more
than forty years and was constant
attendant at meetings A delegation
from Cherry Creek Lodge No. 80 went
to Hamilton last year to initiate
several candidates into the order.

A. I. SHEPHERD AND ASSOCIATES
ORGANIZE COMPANY TO DE-

SCHEELITE ORES

That keeping everlastingly at 1t

ed through the fling of articles of in
corporation In the clerks Office last
Thursday of the Tungstonia Mines,

itatzed at 100000. the par value
OF the shares being $500 each.
The incorporators are A. r. Shep-

development of one Of the largest de-
posits OF low grade ores containing
tungstic acid In the state makes the
fulfillment Of several years of en-
deavor on the part of Shepherd and
others who were Interested In what
once was an uncertain undertaking.
Here's the place where tales of woe
may be told. Shepherd suffered pri-
vations that the enterprise might en-
dure. His enthusiasm continued to
bu bible In spite of the various diff
culties that were strewn in his path
way.

There was no doubt as to the extent
of the resources, but 1t required mon

plant. Payments on the ground tina,
Shepherd and those interested with
him had acquired had to be met al

sary to buy a milling plant. Al
times the situation looked like a pic
ture OF decay and ruin but the spirit
that was strong and still burns white
and clear won the battle.
The undertaking in now a definite
