mostly to minor cases.
Tooman and Cole , charged with murdering
J. P. Krlechbaum , were brought Into court
and both made affidavits that they were too
poor to hire lawyers to defend them. The
court named A. H. Hyrum of Hloomlngton
nnd A. F , Moore of McCook to defend Cole
and George W. Prnther to defend Tooman ,
allowing him to pick his assistant , he nam
ing Kd Dayley of Mlndcn.
The county attorney , in behalf of the i
state , made n motion that Tooman nnd Cole
both be tried nt the snmo time , which tlio I
court granted. The defense objected to this , I
however , nnd both will have separate trlnls.
It will bo at least Wednesday before the
cases will commence nnd the finding of n
Jury will probably be very difficult.

'
PINE I1LUFF , Ark. , March G. The Order
of Hallway Conductors nnd the Brotherhood
of Hallway Trainmen are endeavoring to
obtain a modification of their contract with
the Cotton Uelt road.
The men claim that the contract under
which they are now working is unsatisfactory
and they want concessions from the com
pany. A big union meeting of members of
the organizations was held here tonight at
which the general contrnct committee , repre
senting the organizations on the system ,
were present. The committee , tias been
earnestly at work endeavoring to
obtain the revision nnd the ob
ject of the meeting was to obtain
a genera ? expression of feeling from in
terested members. The committee wns given
to understand that It would have every
support , financial and otherwise , of all con-
ductorti and trainmen on the system. There
Is much speculation ns to the outcome should
a revised nnd acceptable contract not be i
forthcoming from the company. The meeting - I

CHEYENNE. Wyo. , Mnrch G. ( Special. )
The heirs of James Brldger , the Wyoming
pioneer , have been recompensed by the
Fifty-fifth congress for the old Fort Brldger
trading post. Brldger erected the trading
post In 1843 , the premises enclosed by him
embracing 3,893 acres. In 1S57 the United
State army , under General Albert Sidney
Johnston took possession of the property ,
the government making a lease on it and
ngreelng to pay Brldger a rental of $600 a
year nnd reserving the right to purchase
it for $10,000 , when Brldcer should establish
his title to the land. The validity of his
claim against the government has at last
been recognized and Brldger's heirs will
receive { 0,000 from tlio government on ac
count of the transaction of 1857.

ment and garnlshco proceedings nnd In the
nllldnvlt It Is alleged that several firms have
property belonging to the defendant com
pany. The attorney general alleges tbnt the
American Sugar Hoflnory company Is a for
eign corporation and following this the peti
tion gives the usual data connected with the
Incorporating nnd passage of the law which
Is alleged to hnvo been broken. This law
reulres that thirty days after the pnssngo

"May good diges
tion wait on appetite
and health on both. "
That sentence from Shakespeare is a
genuine benediction of the body. In this
as in so many other things the intuition of
his mighty
mind seems
to have fath
omed the facts
) which scieuce
has slowly
discovered.
Science has
shown that
disease in any
part of the
body is al
most always
accompanied
by weakness
and failure of
the digestive
and assimila
tive ore .ins.
Under these
conditions the
stomach , liver
and blood-
making-
' glands fail in
their appoint-
edwork. Then
the symptoms
of disease appear , often in organs appar
ently remote from the real cause. Vitality
is lowered. There is a dull and sluggish
feeling often accompanied by headache.
The heart may seem affected. There may
be lack of ambition and energy with mental
irresolution. With such symptoms ns these
"delay is dangerous. " Such a condition
affords the favorite starting point for con
sumption. It is useless to doctor" fortlje
symptoms. The remedy that reaches the
case must reach the cause of disease. The
greatest medicine for all diseases of the
stomach and other digestive and nutritive
organs is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. It restores the appetite , reestablishes
lishes a sound digestion- , purges out the
bilious poisons which infect the blood , car
ries off waste and builds up sound and
healthy tissues. The " Discovery " is not a
stimulant. It contains nonlcoholorwhisky.
No other medicine has so great a record of
cures , therefore accept no substitute.
