The last chapter in the beaver
skin case, which attracted much local
attention, was written in the justice
court at Diamondville last Monday,
when Charles Bagely, who made the
sale of 20 beaver hides to L. Leav-
lit. the Rock Springs hide buyer,
was taken before the court there and
found guilty, or rather plead guilty
and was fined $3.50 and costs, the
latter amounting to $50.
Bagley swore that his brother,
"Toots' had no part in the transac-
ton from beginning to end, and there
being no evidence before the court
to the contrary, the latter was dis
missed.
The game department is not thru
with this case, as the officers are now
attempting to locate the final pur-
chaser of the hides and determine
their destination, so further develop
ments may be looked for in the near
future.

been worse and after nearly every
meal / would have aching pains all

couldn't sit down and read for ten
minutes at time. / was badly con-
stipated and my blood circulation was
so poor that my feet, knees and
hand were cold nearly all the time.
Night after n ght walked the floor
until three or four O'Clock In the

went down the hill so fast that /
lctually lost thirty five pounds in
weight.

happy that l feel Just like shouting
f1r joy. NY stomach is in perfect
condition and can eat just anything
please and never have any indiges-

culation is good now, and I'm not
constipated and when night comes 1t

of my lost weight and haven't felt

 "To Hell With the Kaiscr" is a clever commingling of fast and fancy The war lords of Germany, the Pots dam gang" presided over by Wil- helm of Hohenzollern, are shown planning the conquest of the world To each is allotted a nation as a reward, the United States reserved for the last, intended for the Crown Prince. The new historic incidents are shown in which Wilhelm the monster tore up the treaty of Bel gium declaring it to be only "a scrap of paper" and acknowledging to the world that he disregarded all honor and decency. The sacking of Bel gium. the burning of convents and the violation of nuns and young girls are indicated in a way that makes the blood boil with righteous indig- nation against the Huns, but these matters are so delicately handled that the youngest child can see them without harm.
