FERGUS COUNTY ARGUS, MAY 17, 1907. QUEEN OF ACTRESSES PRAISES PE -RU -NA. \I Am Glad To Write My Endorsement Of The Great Remedy Pe-ru-na. I Do So Most Heartily.\ 7ulia Marlowe. MISS JULIA MARLOWE. • • • • •00430000•0 0000 A NY remedy that benefits digestion strengthens the nerves. The nerve centers require nutrition. If the digestion is impaired, the nerve centers become anemic, and indigestion is the result. 1 r Peruna is not a nervine nor a, stimulant. It benefits the nerves by. benefiting digestion. Parana frees the stomach of catarrhal congestions and normal digestion is the result. In other words, Peruna goes to the bottom of the whole difficulty, when sue disagreeable symptoms disappear. Mrs. J. C. Jamison, 61 Merchant street, Watsonville, Cal., writes: \I was troubled with my stomach for six years. I tried many kinds of mad!. etne, also was treated by three doctor.. \They said that I had nervous dye- pepsia. I Was put on a liquid diet for three months, \I improved under the treatment, but as soon se! stopped taking the medi- cine, I got bad again. , \I took the medicine for two years, then I got sick again and gave up all hopes of getting'eured. \I saw a testimonial of a man whose case was similar to mine being cured by Peruna, so I thought I would give it a trial. \I procured a bottle at once and com- menced taking It. I have taken several bottles and am entirely cured. e 1 ••I have gained In strength and feel like a different person. I be- lieve Peruna Is all that is claimed for It.\ Nervines, such es coal tar prepara- tion., are doing a great deal of harm. Sleep medicines and headache powders are all alike,—heart depressants, and should not be used. The nerves would be all re -ht, If the dicestion were good.

Officer Kills Fleeing Prisoner and a Great Mob Gathers. Butte, May 11.—For three hours last night the business streets of Butte were in the hands of a mob, the lead- ers of which threatened to lynch a po- lice officer who had shot and killed Harry Cole, while the latter was mak- ing a break for liberty after being placed under arrest on two felony charges. Patrol Driver Charles Jack- son, who shot Cole, understood the fugitive was implicated in the North Coast Limited holdup of last Tuesday. Incited to fury by the frenzied appeal of the dead man's brother for ven- geance, several hundred men who did net know the circumstances surround - Mettle tragedy made a demonstration In front of the court house and later at the city hall, where scenes of vio- lence were enacted. These men were joined by thousands who were drawn there through curiosity and who surg- ed through the streets in the wake of Mime who clamored for the officer they believed had done the shooting. Wild stories of the tragedy circulated through the crowd and it was not un- til a late hour that the real circum- stances of the killing became general- ly known. While the demonstration Was at Its height leaders of the mob broke into the Elngel gun store on Park street and a number of weapons were carried off, boys securing most of the plunder. To the coolness of the officers and the fact that the mob lacked determination and leadership worthy of the name is due the fact that last night's riot was not attend- ed by bloodshed. Frank Conley of the Deer Lodge penitentiary, standing in front of the city hall last evening while the crowd was Id the vicinity of 5,000, remarked to a friend: \This town has a notorious band of criminals in its midst at the present time. I can pick seventeen ex -convicts right in that crowd now and there may be more I cannot see. Look out for trouble unless they are looked after In some way.\ Mrs. S. Joyce, 180 Sullivan St., Clare- mont, N. H., writes: \About a year ago I bought two bottles of Foley's Kidney Cure. It cured me of a severe case of kidney trouble of several years!' standing. It certainly is a grand, good Medicine, and I heartily recommend it.\ C. H. Williams. ro. RETURN FROM MUSSELSHELL OFFICERS RETURN FROM INVES- TIGATION INTO THE WIL- LIAMS MYSTERY. Sheriff Edward Martin and County Attorney Roy E. Ayers returned home Sunday night from the Samuel Wil- liams ranch, on the Musselshell, in the vicinity of Weede, having gone out there to make a thorough investigation of the strange disappearance of Mr. Williams. They had intended to stay considerably longer, but on arriving, found that much of the work they had planned in the way •or searching had already been performed. A letter from Judge E. K. Cheadle had started the ranchers on a search, and they had practically completed it when the offi- cers arrived. After going over all the information condcted by these neigh- bors, and making a personal inspec- tion, the officers came back fully sat- isfied that Williams has been mur- dered. Ayers Is Emphatic. \I am sure the man was killed and his body thrown into the Musselshell,' said Mr. Ayers, on arriving here. \There Is no other theory that is sup- ported in any way by what has been discovered. Wle cannot say yet what the motive was. When the man start- ed from his ranch, he left all those things that he would certainly take if he had intended to be away more than a matter of hours. The accident the- ory 'will not hold, because if Williams had been hurt, or even killed that way, something would surely be found of the horse. There was not a single reason why the man should have gone away, and every reason why he should remain. He was missed before he had been - away from his ranch any great length of time and the first man to go there found Williams' dogs barking and apparently much excited, so he made an investigation. A little later the search was taken up, and a trail was discovered. It was of two horses, and the rider on the first watt leading - the second. This was followed for quite a distance, when a storm came up and obliterated it.\ Dragged the River. Sheriff Martin also believes that the body is In the river, and he had the holes near the Williams place dragged with improvised appliances, but noth- Mg was found. This work is to be done again and done thoroughly. The neighbors are deeply intereated, and will never rest as long as there is the slightest chance of shedding light upon the mystery. There is one portion of the country that has not been search- ed, and before leaving, the sheriff di- rected that this be gone over. The ranchers will look into every nook and corner, and the officers are strongly of the opinion that they will discover something. MANY SHRINERS MEET DEATH THIRTY-FIVE EXCURSIONISTS ARE KILLED IN CALIFORNIA WRECK. Santa Barbara, Cal., May 12.—While hurrying northward over the coast line of the Southern Pacific railroad yes- terday afternoon homeward bound, af- ter a week of fraternizing and fiesta In LQ8 Angelesaetne hundred and forty- five shriners of Ishmalta temple of Buffalo and Rajah temple of Reading, with their families and friends, were hurried into the midst of death, when their special train, running 50 miles an hour, struck a defective switch at Honda, a lonely station on the sand wastee of the Pacific beach, derailing the train, smashing the coaches into flinders, killing thirty-five almost In- stantly and injuring more than a score of others. The bodies of twenty-five Ile in the morgues of Santa Barbara this after- noon and ten more are at San Luis Obispo. The injured, many of whom are terribly hurt, and will probably die, are in two sanitariums at San Luis Obispo. Was a Terrible Scene. San Franciem, May 13.—Three trains bearing Shriners arrived yester- day from the scene of the wreck. An excursion train containing twenty-five Shriners which had been but a few miles behind the wrecked train, arriv- ed late last evening. The train was switched around the wreck, and the passengers agree In the statement that it WRB the most deplorable sight they ever witnessed. Dr. Ware of Cincinnati, who was the first physician to reach the scene, ar- rived last night and told a graphic story of the terrible scenes he wit- nessed. The most pathetic was the death of a bride and groom at almost the same Instant, each believing the other still lived. Mr. Ellenbogen and his bride were members of the ex- cursion party. They were thrown In the coach on opposite sides of the track as It rolled over the ground. Both were mortally Injured, but retain- ed consciousness and exhibited won- derful bravery. \Tell my wife that I am all right,\ murmured Ellenbogen to the physician. \Give her my love and let me know how she is.\ Mrs. Ellenbogen in return sent a message of love to her husband, with the assurance that she Was all right. Before the doctor could carry anoth- er, both had passed away. State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Lucas county, as. Frank J. Cheney makes oath that he is senior partner of the firm of F. J.

Many Men Brought West as Graders Quit Jobs. Two more coach loads of railroad laborers from the east arrived in the city yesterday morning and were tak- en out to Armington on the forenoon train, where they will be given em- ployment on the Billings & Northern, says the Great Falls Tribune. Many hundred men have been brought out from the east during the past spring with the expectation of keeping them upon the construction of that line, but great difficulty is ex- perienced in keeping them. If all the men who had been brought out had remained on the work the contractors would have been troubled with a surplus, but many of them will work for a few days only, while oth- ers never show up at the camps. Var- ious reasons are assigned for this. Some of the men take advantage of the cheap transportation }yid to enable them to get west. Others would not week if given the opportunity, others are not satisfied with the wages and many will not put up with the accom- modations provided at the camps. Many of the men object to sleeping in the bunk houses with the rest of the workmen and it is said that al- most as many men come back to Arm- ington from the camps as are hauled out In the conveyances provided for them. Many of them drift back to this city and then to other points, some get work at ranches, while others contin- ue west. There is a sufficient number of men coming west to handle all the big works in progress if they will only ap- ply themselves at this work. Disturbed the Congregation.

Supplemental Opinion Given Out by Attorney General Galen, Great Falls, May 15.—Supplemental to a recent opinion, Attorney General Albert J. Galen has rendered an opin- ion elaborating on the collection of road taxes, from whom they are due and under what circumstances they may be collected. In essence, it is held that the tax is due from male persons under the age of 50 and more than 21, who have actually taken up a residence in the county. No speci- fied time 14 required to subject a per - 0h to the operation of the law. Fail- ure to vote is not a valid excuse, nor failure to declare an intention to re- side permanently in the county. The oplalon states that the right to collect this tax may be likened to the right to tax goods of one who tempor- arily comes into the state to dispose at \fire -sale\ or the like. If a person can show that he has an established residence elsewhere to which he in- tends to return in seasons of repose when his labor in Montana is finished he cannot be considered a resident of the county.

One of the greatest engineering feats ever planned by the United States Coast & Geological Survey is now under way near Vernal, Utah, in the Strawberry Valley, to irrigate several thousand acres of unproduct- ive soil in the southern part of Utah county. A storage dam having a ca- RacitY_Sit Rear)X 5 billion Cubic feet of water WiTr be thrown across the Strawberry river and the water will be led through a tunnel more than three and one-half miles long to the distributing points, where it will be diverted into canals for irrigating the various ranches. This stored water power will also be used to develop electrical current, which will be used to light neighbor- ing towns and to drive the centrifugal irrigating pumps. A temporary power house is being erected at Spanish Fork, so that electricity will be avail- able for construction work. The elec- trical equipment will be furnished by the General Electric company. Work on the tunnel is already under way, and during the month of March over 200 feet of excavating was done. It is expected that the work will be greatly facillated when the tem- porary power house is complete and electricity can be had, Kidney complaint kills more people than any other disease.
