11, 1H88, und was 18 years. 0 months, and
11 days old. He never had been very

On our visit to Alliance, Mnrsland and
other points last week, we found the
snow very deep, aud crusted to such an
extent that it is almost impossible for
stock to reach the grass. Considerable
loss is reported at different points and it
seems only a question of stock bucking
providence, and we faar that some of our
stockmen will realize that snow sand
wi-.hes can not be relied upon to carry
stock through Uie winter. We do not
like to chronicle such news, but such
are facts and we hoe that in the future
stockmen will be more careful and not
over stock their ranges, for it is shame
ful to have stock perish for want of food
and shelter.
We were pleased last Sunday night to
listen to Cuptnin W. R. Alters of Alli
ance give his lecture on Jerusalem, at
Mamland in behalf of the Christian en
deavor of that plnce. We have heard
several lectures given on the Holy land
but never have been aide to hear one
that could give such a life like presentat
ion of the subject as did Mr. A kers.
Tliere was a large audience, n,t from
the attention given by all present, wa
was not the only one present that enjoy
ed It. We learn that this lecture is only
the forerunner of a lecture that he is pre
paring on the fioly land; well if it it to
be any better than this one was, wa will
wait in anxious suspense until we hear it.
The singing by the Mainland choir was
second to none that we have heard in any
of the towns that wa have visited.

The tendency of medical science it to
ward prevsntiye measures. The best
thought of the world it being given to
the subject It is easier aud better to
prevent than to cure. It has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of the
most dangerous diseases that medical
men have ta contend with, can be pre
vented by the use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy, Pneumonia always re
sults from a cold or from an attack of
Influenza (grip), and it has been observed
that this remedy counteracts any tend
ency of these diseases toward pneumonia.
This has been fully proven In many thou-
aids of oases in which this remedy has
been used during the great prevalent of
colds and grip in recant years, and can be
relied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from slight
cold whan no danger is apprehended un
til it is suddenly discovered that there is
fever and difficulty in breathing and
pains in the chest, then It Is announced
that the patient has pneumonia. Be on
the mi fe side and take Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy as soon as the cold la con
t meted. It always curse. Far als by

Mr. William L. Baldwin died auddaol
last Saturday morning about half pai
fouro'cleck. Mrs. Baldwin gave hiiu
a drink of water se veral times duriog the
night, and the last time was about four
o'clock, and later on when aha called
him to get up ha was dead. Ha has been
suffering from a bullet wound received
in the Civil war, and no doubt this helped
to bring on hia death. Mr. Baldw

been one of her respected citixeos ever
since. ' .

Yes, Buds and Blossoms, we w uld be
pleased to visit yo ur noted city and if
ever it is convenient to do so, will surely
avail ourselves of the opportunity. Of
course wa will need a guide, but we
would prefer a white one. No doubt Mr.
Black is a good old time guide, but the
contrast is too great. No danger of be
ing kidnapped by one of Andrew's Belles
as wa have met on several different
occasions. Why bless you, Bud-t and
Blossoms, we captivated the eyes, and
captured the heart and tW of one of
White River's school mams almost thir
teen years ago. Whenjwe used to range
White creek, Andrews was in an em
bryotic state, and White River was only
a littla brook. At that time several
prominent men resided in and near And
rews. There was Lewis of Lewis, and
Clark's expedition in 1804, Russet Sage,
Old Dan Tucker came to late etc; Ferris
of the Ferris wheel fame; Scott of the
war with Mexico: and Mason of t he Trent
affair; Nelson the famous English Ad
aural, noted for the battle of Trafalgar,
besides other noted parsonages. Time of
course has wrongbt great changes io
White River and Andrews and wa would
not risk ourselves "it all without a guide
as wo might be kidnapped by th Lillie
of the valley. Zekiel.
Wa sea from the daily papers, that 'the
ladies of Crawford are making somewhat
of a'cruaade against the saloons, of that
place. We will say that if there is any
one thing that the mothers of our
country should have a right to do is to
protect their homes from this damnable
curse, the saloon, It is true a grat
many citizens in our towns hold up the
saloon it a great necessity, in the way of
getting flnaeces for the support of the
public schools We believe we are ns
much interested in the education of our
children as the average person, and what
we want it the right and pnvelege of vot
ing a direct tax for the support of our
schools. We are sure that if every wife
and mother could have that all seeing
eye so far ns would pertain to her hus
band that she ought see hi) at all times
and in all placet, there would not be a
saloon left. In our visits to different
towns where the saloon element predom
nates, we learn that some of the best
citizent as they are called visit houses of
prostitution, and'place themselves upon
a level with ita inmates,
You may wonder dear
readers how such a thing aa this can be
hut it is very eaayily explained, for it is
the hell-holes of saloons that some of
our good citizens visit, and whan their
brain is set on fire by the social drink as
it is call d; man theo condescend to
humiliate, andrput to sham th on
that has c rented him for grand and nobler
purposes. We hop thef geod mother
of Crawford will not cease in their effort x
until every saloon in that place is closed
and that their children may be able to go
upon the'streett without having to listen
to langusges that would put to shame th
devil himself war it not that it is his
business to tear down the strong, and the
weak. The queetioo has often been put
to us is it right for a christian to dance?,
and our answer has always been this; can
you meet your Saviour la th ball room
without blushing: and th tame rule will
apply to husbands can you not only meet
your Saviour, but your wives in anv
p lac that you may go. W ara sure
that If all could adopt this rl there
would b mor happier bom, and less
place of degradation. Stand by your
calling christian fathers and mothers sml
may all the mothers that ar not christ
ian become our allies that this gr. i
cur, the saloon may be wiped from
l-tmic e end that the name of Christ nm
be upon th lips of avary oa io tba place
