' Oh, when a mother ji'cis on high

Hath she not then for ... and fears,
The day of woe, the '-v atcliful night,
For all her sorrow, al" r tears,

When a baby is take a iv by thr ar.g-el
of death from its sorro-. mother she has
some sense of consolai i--n which denied
to the sad hearted wo-- ir rho ha never
been blessed with the jot - f chnirii-jr ltie

".i-t h-- i'
besom. It is sad indeU, ictLcihcud,
isa Y Y Y Y YVESa
the most complete and perfect of womanly
delights is denied so often to those most
fitted by their loving nature to enjoy it
It is impossible to avoid the feeling that
kindly nature would not allow her own
best purposes to be defeated, without some
fault or short -coming on the part of the
woman who longs to be a mother; and ex
perience shows that in a large number of
cases the difficulty lies in some unnatural
weakness, which, by proper and reasonable
means is altogether remediable.
So delicate and sacred a subject cannot
be treated in any but a serious, and rt the
same time a sensible spirit. It is pt' Ely a
feeling of gratitude and a desire thaf other
women like themselves shall be made
happy and contented that prompt d the
writing of the following letters wi h the
express permission that they be published
here:
" My baby girl is now five weeks old and is fat
nnd healthy as can be," writes Mrs. Elizabeth
Wright, of Spring City, Sanpete Co., Utah. "I
commenced using Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription when about two months along and
continued to use it until I was confined. I used
about ten bottles in nil. I have been subject tt
miscarriage, having ten of them and two pre
mature children. I was not troubled in the least
this last time. I got stronger as each month
progressed and went to my full time. I shall
recommend Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
to all I meet who are troubled with female weak
ness. There are several ladies taking the ' Fa
vorite Prescription ' since they have seen the
benefit I received, and more no doubt, will com
mence its use after knowing my condition, as
my progress was watched with much interest by
many of my neighbors and friends,"
" My wife has vised Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prc
scriotion when Itva critical condition, and finds
it the best medicine on earth," writes W. J.
Journigan, of Rhinehart, Catahoula Par., La.
" My wife had miscarried seven times, but with
the last child she took nine bottles of the ' Fa

combined. It is the only proprietary rem
edy devised for this express purpose by an
accomplished, scientific physician.
When you ask your druggist for Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and he says
"let me sell you something else just as
good " ask him gently but firmly if his
"just as good" medicine has a "just as
cjood " record as Dr. Pierce's, a "just as
good " physician behind it as Dr. Pierce,
and carries with it "just as good" privi
leges of consultation and treatment, as do
Dr. Pierce's medicines,
There are no medicines for female dis
orders as good as Dr. Pierce's.
In fact it is the only successful specifie
remedy for women prescribed and prepared
by a graduated physician in regular prac
tice and sold through druggists.
Every woman would be benefited by the
clearer knowledge of her physical self
which she would obtain from Dr. Pierce's
Common Sense Medical Adviser, a splendid
thousand - page volume, illustrated with
over seven hundred engravings and several
colored plates. More than half a million
copies of this valuable book were sold at
S1.50 each; but a paper-bound copy will
now be sent free for the mere cost of mail
ing 21 one-cent stamps, which should be
inclosed to World's Dispensary Medical
Association, Buffalo, N. Y., or if a hand

ten stamps extra should be sent.

LIFE IN THE WILD WEST.
Described by Hank Brown to a Tender
Foot Reporter.
Hank Brown, who says he is the
oldest stage driver and the boss
Endian killer in the West, is in the
city. The visitor is 66 years old,
swarthy and wrinkled, and very
picturesque in his attire. The last
stage he drove was between San
Bernardino and Tucson, for which
he had- the government mail con
tract
miju: t lie ad
:.t o; tne
, r.r !ro;id in the ttection he has en -
.1 in the mining business, and
lie and P. M. McGrath of this city
are now the owners of several work
ing claims twenty-five miles this
s'de of the Colorado River, in the
McCoy Mountains.
In his younger days Hank was
('adventurous, for, according to his
own story, he has driven stages in
the early days, variously in Califor
nia, Oregon, Washington Territory,
fdahn, rnd Utah. He tells stories
which-are designed to show an in
limate acquaintance with the not
ihles cf the West in those days, and
hat he was an active participant
n many stirring adventures and
occurrences. But now Hank is a
man of family, with a boy in Manila
and a home five miles out of San
Bernardino, lie picked up a tender
foot reporter yesterday, and got
himself interviewed.
"1 began stage driving in Cali
fornia in 'n0," said Brown, "and was
at it almost continuously up to the
time the Southern Pacific built
through San Bernardino and Tuc--on.
In '54 I was driving between
Columbus House and Marysville,
and Hank Monk, whom Mark
Twain mentions in 'Roughing It,5
was driving between Marysville and
Virginia City. Mark Twain oftei:
rode with me, and I carried Horace
Greelev alfO.
On this trip Horace
- ,w.ivw, .v. j...
Marysville at 7 for they
Were expecting Moraee the e to sue: k
oeiore lie tooK dinner at ine notei,
I knew that for the manager Ol the
UUC U'.u 11 C, HU IIC SARI.
. t: i .1 1 l. : j
'Hank, Horace is a visitor among
ih, and get him in on time.' I got
Horace there at. 7 sharp, but he
nearly h;id the liver shook out of
him. Horace gave my partner
Hank Monk, who ran into Virginia
City, a gold watch for a little service
in good driving. Hank died five
years ago, hut his family's got the
watch yet.
"In '51 the stage I was driving
between Columbus House and
Marysville was held up by Joaquin
Murietta and twelve others. There
was $45,000 in dust in the stage
I" thnfe d:'ys the stage company
was alwavs expecting a hold-up.
and the manager said to me before
leaving CYiumbns House, 'Hank,
yon'er working for me, and you
ain't on that seat for a target; all
you got to protect is the horses and
the stage.' So when Joaquin jumps
into the road, followed by his men,
and says nothing, but just covers
me, I reins up and lights my pipe
and takes a new chew. Joaquin
got off with every ounce of that I
dust. 1'e is living in a house built!
fo nobody en gt at him Tne'
fact, that Joaquin was killed thirty-J
odd' years ago has escaped from-;
Hank's rHemory.
"In 'of 561 was mnnin? a butcher i
shon in Jacksonville, Or
That
was about tho time Mrs. Wagner
was killed, and the Hayes family
were murdered'. There was an
Indian uprising and the country
was scared. The da3 the Hayes
family were murdered theseltleis
had just about got tired monkeying
with those Indians, and we made
! up our minds to' put a'n end' to them. !
We sent to Hungry Hill to Capt.
A. J. Smith of the armv for his 400
dragoons, and then I organized a
company of men, com posed' entirely
of gamblers and such like, the finest
lot of fighting irien you ever saw. '.
j That afternoon' the Indians attacked !
my place while my company was
forming some distance a'wav. I ran
jout with a bu cher knife in one
i hand an(1 a six'shooter in the oilier.
jjant. killed seven Indians quicker ;
J i than that; 1 5tood the rest off until j
j J ni' ,nen c.a:,1. and then we set on '
g4j,them. c drove them through
l,nuM" lK!,l"J!!inTV;il
ley, where Capt. Smith's men join
ed us. Before the Hayes family
massacre there were over 4000 In- !
dians in the district,- and when we
got through with them there were
less than 500 left. Lots of the boy?
made good money from the govern
ment on rewards. The way I figured
it up at the time, I killed 107 In
dians myself.
lI was driving out of Bannack'
Idaho, in '64. AH the county of
ficers were thieves, as every one
ew, but they couldn't do any-

aticallj. Bill Plnmraer was sheriff; j
Jack Gallagher, Justice of the peace; :
George Ives under sheriff and 4Fat"
Jack,' Constable. One day the set
tlers just natural-like got tired of
their doings, and organized a vigi
lantes committee. Tom Coover.
who was reported lost in Arizona a
f-w weeks ago while sea.ching for
the Pegleg Smith mine, was one of
the head men on the committee
An hour after tho committee had
been formed Plummer was locked
up. They found him. going into a
saloon, got the drop on him and
shot him dyad. In one of his pockets
was found a list of the names of the
gang, 110 of them. The committee
found twelve in a room over a saloon,
threw their guns on thm and hung
them up in short order. Plummer's
body was carried to East Bannack.
where it was Strug up alonside
fifteen of his pals, who were found
there. The rest of tho gang were
found in Virginia City and in Hang
town, and were ail hung, and not a
member of the gang escaped
'My last experience was in Indio
in 'SO. I was hauling ties for the
buildining of the Southern Pacific
and had a hundred Indians work
ing for me cutting wood. They
got it in for me for some reason.
and wine of them were sent to kin
me. Thfty jumped me near the
station house. I had a shotgun
with me, and began pumping lead
into the crowd. I powdered Ihre
of them, killed one ritb a knife and !
another with an ax. But before i
this was done they gave me some
work, I want to tell you. They had
my gun away from me once, and
ail that saved my life was that they
didn't knw how to work it. While
they were wrestling with me for the
gun, the housekeeper, as fine a
woman as you ever saw. came out
with a butcher knife and cut an
Indian for me. When they got the
gun away from me, she handed me
the ax, and then it was all over,
and five of those Indians were dead
"But they got back on me. They
et my house afire, killed every
head of cattle I h:id, stole what
they .ould find, and left me nothing.'
I put in a claim for -$25,000 against
the government, but the Indian
agent reduced it to $1800:, and I
haven't even' got that vet."
Hank did not say that he had j
been in Cuba, writing war dispat-i
thes for Weylcr and Blanco, but
the character of the Despatches sent
out by those able warriors might
justify the 'inference that he had
been running their typewriter.

appreciation of gold and deprecia
tion' of silver began, Mexican min
ing men at once realized the profit
able nature of gold mining and
thtir peculiarly favorable condition?
Mexican legislators gave great con
cessions to corporations and indi
viduals investing in gold mining,'
the result being a rise in the gold
product of Mexico from $1,224,621
in '93 to 84,744 542 in '94; '$6,054,-'
078 in '95'; $7,584,182 in '96; and'
nearly nine and one half millions
last year. Up to and including '94;
for the ten years previous, there
was in Mexico an annual average,
yield of 855,000.000 silver to $1,
225,000 gold a ratio of 44 to 1.
Taking last year's figures, the ratio'
of production computed in ounces'
without reference to coinage value'
is about 6 to 1.
