Rice went up to Merri- ( man and Cody yesterday on busi ness. ness.The The Weather Bureau reports for ihe week ending August 2ith , that the highest and lowest tem perature was 93 ° on the 20th and 43 ° on the 22nd. The tempera ture on the 22nd may have .pro duced very light frosts in low and damp places , but if so , it was too light to do any damage to the corn crop. The rainfall during the- week was .87 of an inch , making for the month of August to date 2.7-7 inches. The greatest rahfall for any August in 15 years was 4.82 inches in 1892. There have been considerable high winds dur ing the week , ranging from 27 to 33 miles per 'hour from various directions. ' x S'j'i vut' * rJ Ruirx Am n civ. Private Harrison of Co. T of the 25thInfantry got gay at a sport ing house next to the river Satur day night and with one of the army pistols took possession of the house - and made several threats to shoot. The proprietor of the place seem ed tobe the subject of his abuse principally , but contented himself with striking two or three persons over the head with his sixshooter and shooting promiscuously about the dance hall until he had the oc cupants coming his way , so to spearc. Complaint was made to Lieut.-Ma pes of Co. I , and Mon day a search was made for the re volver , which Harrison claimed to have given to a woman at the sporting house. A sergeant was dispatched for the gun which he secured , but in returning was way laid in the timber near the bridge by liarrisdn who took the gun away from the sergeant and came up town ; ' presumably with intention - ; ion of getting few dollars to i - gefcher. and deserting the army. Somewhere he nad changed his suit for citizens clothes and when city raarshall , Webb Hilsinger , discovered him , had tried to cash a check ma'de ' payable to his order but as he was not known he couid not get the money without being identified. Upon inquiry Webb learned from the assistant cashier that the man claimed to be Harrison risen , and as Webb had received a message from Lieut.Mapes to ar rest a negro bearing his descrip tion , Mr. Hilsinger promptly plac ed him under arrest , intending to hold him until the arrivalof Lieut. Mapes , but as Harrison began to get unruly and madeseveral threats as to what he would do with the marshal if he followed him around too closely and finally when he started across the street without permission and probably with the intention of making his escapp , Webb caught him by the collar and halted him. Sheriff Layport w4s standing just across the street and thinking that possibly then was trouble was looking toward ? , them when Webb motioned for him to come over and upon the di rection of the marshal started to take Harrison to jail. Harrison refused to go and being a large strongman , Webb threw him down and struck him a couple of jolts , which seemed to be a pretty good coaxer. Up at the water tank' Harrison got unruly again and made resistance when Sheriff Lay- port downed him with a lick in the face. Upon reaching the jail he was put in a cell and kept until the arrival of Lieut. Mapcs and a couple of sergeants , one of them being the man from whom Harrison risen had taken the gun near the bridge. They had some difficulty at first in pursuading Harrison to go with them and after getting down the road with him a ways , Harrison jumped out and started to run. Lee Shepard was driving the team , and , turning around , soon overtook the fleeing desper ado. One of the sergeants ' -was about to shoot him , but the other taking advantage of the opportun- I ity , struck Harrison over the head with a gun whild he had his hand down to his shoe , searching for a knife probably. They brought him back to the ( jail where they got a pair of handcuffs which held TJ _ him safe enough , though they had trouble in getting them on him. Harrison is said to be a desperate - , ate man and is strong. He made J several threats of violence against different persons and it is thought that he will be put in a place of safe keeping for some time. Walter Cogswell Killed by a Train.

I consider Wino of Cardui superior to andoctor's medicine I over used and I know- whereof I speak. I euf- iered for nine months with suppressed menstruation which completely prostrated - tratod me. Paina would shoot through my back and sides and I would have blinding headaches. My limbs would swell up nud I would feel BO weak I could neb stand up. I naturally felt discouraged for I neemod to be beyond the help ot physicians , but "Wino of Cardui came as a God-send to me. I felt a change for the better within a week. After nineteen days treatment I mcnatruatod without suffering the ngoniea I usually did and soon became regular and without pain. "Wine of Cardui is simply wonderful and I wink that all suffering vromen feiew of its good qualities. Treasurer , Portland Economic League Periodical headachca tell of fe male -weakness. Wine Cardui cures permanently nineteen out of every twenty cases of irregular menses , bearing down pains or any female weakness. If you are discouraged and doctors have failed , that ia the beat reason in the v.'qrld you should try Wine of Cardui now. Kemember that headaches mean female weakness .
