What is Scrofula
It is that Impurity in the blood, which, •rrumn
lating in the glands of the neck, produces un
sightly lumps or swellings; which causes painful
running sores on the arms, legs, or feet; which
developes ulcers in the eyes, ears, or nose, often
causing blindness or deafness ; which is the origin
of pimples, cancerous growths, or many other
manifestations usually ascribed to « humors."
It is a more formidable enemy than consumption
or cancer alone, for scrofula combines the worst
possible features of both. Being the most ancient
it is the most general of all diseases or affections,
for very few persons are entirely free from it.
How can it be cured ? By taking Hood's Sarsa
parilla, which, by the cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be a potent and peculiar medicine
for this disease. For all affections of the blood
Hood s Sarsaparilla is unequalled, and some of the
I cures it has effected are really wonderful. If you
suffer from scrofula in any of its various forms,
be sure to givefllood's Sarsaparilla a trial.

The senate committee on privileges
and elections held a meeting Saturday
afternoon and decided by an almost
unanimous vote in favor of Senator F.
T. Dubois of Idaho, in the contest of W.
H. Claggett for the seat now occupied
by the former in the United States sen
ate. The committee also decided by a
unanimous vote to report in the case of
Senator Chilton of Texas, that his ap
pointment was regular.
A Denver dispatch of the 24th says:
A sensation was caused today by the re
port that Deputy Sheriff Wilson, to
whom Graves is said to have acknowl
edged that he poisoned Mrs. Barnaby,
. ,
has retracted the statement, saying the
doctor confessed nothing to him. Wil
son emphatically denies he has made
this retraction. Judge Furman, attor
ney for Graves, says he is confident a
new trial will be granted his client.
Minister Lincoln has been instructed
invite Great Britain to join
the international conference on the
silver question, if, in his opinion, the
feeling of the English cabinet is such as
justify the invitation. It is learned

tional silver convention, and that nego
tiations to that end are now in progess
with Great Britain, France and Ger

The Ogden Standard of Saturday con
tains an interview with Captain Schley
the United States steamer Baltimore,
who passed through that city on his way
Washington, in which he says: "The
Chilians have not the slightest concep
tion of the power and magnitude of the
United States. In their estimation their
navy is vastly superior to ours. In my
estimation they have none. I would
like to give them just one hour's brush,
and probably by that time they would
materially change their opinion. The
United States should treat Chili as a
spoiled child and spank it."
The democratic national committee
issued a call for the national
democratic convention, June 21, at Chi
cago. Each state is entitled to represen
tation therein equal to double the num
of representatives to which it is en
titled in the next electoral college, and
each territory and the District of Col
umbia shall have two delegates. "All
citizens of the United States, irrespective
past political associations and differ
ences, who can unite with us in
effort for pure, economical and consti
tutional government, are cordially invi
to join us in sending delegates to the
convention." The call is signed by Cal
S. Brice, chairman, and Simon P.
Sheerin, secretary.
The correspondence on the Chilean

message was sent to congress Monday.
is of great volume, and would prob
ably fill more than 100 columns of an
ordinary newspaper. It dates back as
as August 15,1890, eighteen months
ago, and much of it has been described
with sufficient accuracy in the presi
dent's message sent to congress at the
beginning of the present session and the
copious newspaper publications that
have been made. It is divided into three
portions, the first comprising corres
pondence between Mr. Blaine and Mr.
Egan, or Mr. Wharton in Mr. Blaine's
absence, correspondence between Senor
Lazcano, the Chilean minister under the
Balmaceda administration, and lastly
notes exchanged between Secretary
Blaine and Dorn Pedro Montt, the pres
Chilean minister to Washington.
Denver dispatch, 24th: Quite a sen
sation was caused here today by the un
founded report that Deputy Sheriff
Wilson, who had escorted Dr. Graves
from the court house to the jail, and to
whom the doctor is said to have ac
knowledged his guilt in poisoning Mrs.
Barnaby, had retracted hie statement
and said that the doctor had not con
fessed anything to him. Mr. Wilson em
phatically denies that he has made this
retraction, although Judge Furman, at
torney for Dr. Graves, says he is confi
dent of a new trial for his client, for he
has discovered a point on which to arge
rehearing. He says that Judge Rising
erred in his instructions to the jury in
that he instructed them to return a
verdict of guilty if they thought the
doctor had committed the crime, not
withstanding the circumstancial evi
dence m the case was complete. Judge
Furman has unearthed a similar set of
instructions in an old case here, in
which the defendant was convicted, but
was granted a new trial by the supreme
oourt on account of the error in the
judge's instructions.

Laur, the Boulangist member of the
French chamber of deputies, who was
struck by Constans, minister of the inter
ior, at the time of the stormy scene in the
chamber last week has sent a challenge to
the minister to fight with pistols. Cons
tans answered that he would not fight.
When Laur received this answer he sent
a letter to Constans repeating the insult
ing language he used which led to the
attack upon him by the minister.
At the meeting of the national demo
cratic committe in Washington, on the
21st inst., Chicago was selected as the
place and June 21st as the date of the
next democratic national convention.
The committee was called upon to estab
lish a precedent in the case of Montana's
committeemen. Dr. Mitchell of Deer
Lodge had credentials as a territorial del
egate of 1885, and Col. Broadwater as
committeeman named by the state con
vention at Anaconda in 1889. Both gen
tlemen agreed to submit the case to the
committee to determine the legal question
involved, and the decision was in favor
of Broadwater, who was represented by
A. W. Lyman as proxy. Montana's vote
was for St. Paul till the last two ballots,
when it went to Chicago.
Billy Madden called at the office of the
Sporting Clipper in New York on the 21st
and presented a certified check for 85,000
as a deposit for 810,000, with which
he wished to back Peter Maher in a fight
against Sullivan. The Clipper refused to
hold the stakes and Madden and his
friends went to the World office to depos
it the money. At the World office the
85,000 deposit was received by Geo. Rich
ardson, sporting editor, and a formal
challenge drawn up. In it, Maher chal
lenged Sullivan to fight for 810,000 and
for any sum from $500 up, and expresses
a willingness to have the fight take place
under the auspices of the club offering
the most favorable terms. Two weeks is
the time stated within which Sullivan
may accept or decline the challenge, and
if he declines it or fails to answer it
Maher will claim the championship of
the world.
At Chicago Wednesday the national
conference of representatives of various
political reform movements now exist
ent in this country, including prohibi
tionists, farmers, laljorers, greenbackers,
general reformers, etc., was held in se
cret session. Miss Frances E. Willard
presided and stated the object of the
conference to be to devise ways and
means of selecting a president of the
United States who will with one blow
kill the rum traffic. Ignatius Donnelly
was down for the opening speech, but
failed to appear. The idea is to unite all
of these elements on one candidate for
the presidency in the belief that they
outnumber either of the regular parties.
It was decided that representatives of
various movements hold separate meet
ings and decide upon planks which they
would insist on, respectively, in the joint
platform. When the meeting reassem
bled and reports Mere made, it was
found that many things insisted on by
one party would not be tolerated by an
other, and tbeprospect for united action
is remote.
Sc u ai or Power Speaks.
A Washington special of the 27th to
the Helena Herald says: Senator Power,
who was seen this morning, appeared
little disturbed by the controversy which
more or less misquoted remarks of his
delivered before the irrigation conven
tion at Helena has occasioned between
Justice Field and himself. The senator»
referring to Governor Toole's published
criticism of the cause he (the senator)
had espoused, said he presumed the
governor had discovered that opposition
to Pacific railroad interests is a barbed
wire fence, as he had kept far enough
away from it to convey that impression.
The unfavorable comments that Gov
ernor Toole reports, said the senator,
arise wholly from the attorneys and
friends of the vauous interested corpor
ations here. Ol course, as servants of
the land grant roads they are bound to
resent interference with their plans, and
this circumstance of itself amounted to
a vindication of himself, and, so to speak,
a verification of statements he had made
to his neighbors and constituents at
home. The senator thought that Jus
tice Field himself had given force, by
his own admissions, to the charge of en
deavoring to influence judicial appoint
ments. "I think," said Senator Power,
"that Montanians will sustain my posi
tion which their representatives in the
Helena irrigation congress endorsed.
Especially should the executive aid
rather than impede any action taken by
the people for the presumble welfare of
the state." The senator added that tel
egrams, letters and other documents
were being received by him daily from
the northwest and southwest heartily
endorsing the stand he had taken.
Montana's State Ruildius
Journal: I. J. Galbraith, of the firm
of Galbraith & Fuller, of Missoula, the
successful designers of the plans for the
Montana World's Fair building, was at
the Helena yesterday evening on his
way to Great Falls. He said the plans
to: the Montana building were not en
tirely finished, but at the meeting of the
board of commissioners at Butte on Mon
day next, they will be completed to the
smallest details. Montana's building
plans are the only ones yet accepted by
the board of construction at Chicago.
Immediately after the Butte meeting
the plans will be placed on exhibition
and contracts will be received for its
construction. Only Montana contrac
tors will be allowed to bid. The build
ing will be constructed under the super
vision of Galbraith & Fuller, who re
ceive 1200 as the first prize for drawing
up plans and 5 per cent, of the cost of
construction. The interior of the build
ing will be entirely of Montana material,
while the material for the exterior will,
of course, be procured from the most
available source. Mr. Galbraith says the
building will be completed by Septem
ber of this year, and Montana's building
will be the first state building to be com
pleted on the exposition grounds.
Death of Justice Bradley.
Justice Bradley of the United States
supreme court, died at Washington on
the 22nd inst. His death was not unex
pected, as it had been known for some
time that he was far from being well.
An attack of grip last spring left him in
a much debilitated condition, from
which he seemed unable to rally. Dur
ing the greater part of the present term
of court he was unable to be present.
With his declining years and cold, damp
weather prevailing it was impossible for
him to recover. The funeral arrange
ments, in accordance with the wishes of
the dead justice, were private. Private
service was held at his residence in
Washington Sunday afternoon and the
remains taken to Newark, New Jersey,
where the interment took place Monday.
The supreme court adjourned immedi
ately after assembling on the 22nd inst.
until Tuesday.
Montana Wool.
River Press: A close reader of the
various market reports during the past
few months has not failed to notice that
sales of Montana wool in consitierble
amounts have been quite numerous,
and while no accurate account of such
sales is available, the totals reported seem
to have already been in excess of tiie
amount shipped from the state last sea
son. It has been ascertained from relia
ble sources that Montana's wool product
for 1891 did not ecxeed thirteen million
pounds, and the weekloy reports from
the variouseastern wool markets indicate
that more than that amount has already
changed hands under the name of Mon
tana wool. Similar transactions will
doubtless continue to be reported, and
it is evident that the reputation of the
Montana product is being used to dispose
of wool not grown in this state. This
method is not conducive to the best in
terests of the Montana wool grower, and
his reputation may suffer from some de
fect in clips wrongly credited to his pro
duction. Such a condition calls for pro
test from flockmasters of the state,
since it is obvious that values should be
based upon merit alone, without trading
upon the name of superior goods.
Ida Glyndon.
Independent: Last Monday morning
a baby girl was born on the Pullman
sleeper Glyndon on the Northern Pacific
while the train was passing through
Idaho. The passengers took up a sub
scription and bought a handsome pres
ent for the little one. They gave her
the name Glyndon, from the car in which
she was born, and Ida was contracted
from Idaho. The mother gave her
name as Mrs. S. C. Brant and said her
husband was a carpenter at Seattle.
Mother and child were taken to the Sis
ters' hospital when the train reached
Spokane. There is an air of mystery
about the identity of the mother. It is
believed that she is a San Francisco
actress whose stage name is Theresa
Ellsworth and who was recently a pupil
of the tragedian, Daniel E. Bandman, at
his ranch near Missoula. II. O. Collins
of the Missoula Gazette, who is ac
quainted with the actress, went to Spo
kane to establish Mrs. Brandt's identity.
He was refused permission to see her.
A Spokane reporter who had seen Mrs.
Brandt described her to Mr. Collins,
who says the description answers tothat
of Theresa Ellsworth.
The Doctor's Answers.
Independent: A n interesting ease was
heard by Judge Buck Monday. It was
the appeal of Dr. W. E. Try on of Castle,
from the action of the state medical
board in refusing to grant him a certifi
cate to practice. The doctor's attorney
said that he did not answer certain ques
tions seriously, but in a spirit of fun.
Tlie medical board looked at the matter
differently. One question was as to the
treatment of hemorrhoids. The doctor
answered, "Set on a hot potato." Some
of the other questions and answers were:
"Give prophylaxis of thermic fever."
"Don't knew what it is, unless keep
cool."
"Give prophylaxis of scarlatina."
"Salicylate of sodium and moving out
of the neighborhood."
"What influence has the purity of
water upon it's power of dissolving lead?"
"Don't know of any. Understand the
dirty springs and mud baths are out of
sight in this country, but for cleanliness
would prefer clean."
"What is meant by the term cataract?
Mention the varieties and treatment."
"What I don't know of these would
fill volumes.''
"Give the general symptoms of glau
coma in its acute form, with treatment."
"Similarly posted here, too, prospects
are would do what I could to keep eye
ball in if I had to sew lids while sending
him to Helena."
The doctor also stated that he had
been in business eight and a half years.
Frank E. Corbett of Butte represented
the medical board. C. E. Miller of Cas
tle, and Hon. T. C. Bach of Helena, ap
peared for the doctor. The court took
it under advisement.
Holocaust at Indianapolis.
One of the most appalling fires in the
history of Indianapolis occurred late
Thursday night of last week. The Na
tional Surgical institute, one of the most
famous of its kind in the country, burned
to the ground. The fire started at mid
night in the office of the building.
Above the offices were the wards for
the babes and mothers. Smoke was dis
covered a few minutes before midnight
issuing from the advertising room, and
is believed to have been caused by spon
taneous combustion, and in fifteen min
utes the whole lower floor was in flames.
The attendants barely awakened all pa
tients and in the halls and upper rooms
pandemonium reigned. Shriek after
shriek for help went up as the inmates |
realized their terrible situation In a

At Pittsburg last week the jury in
the famous criminal libel suit of Quay
against the Pittsburg Post Publishing
company, A. J. B arr , president, and Jas.
Mills, editor, brought in a verdict of
guilty in the manner and form as indi
cated. Judge Horcer, in his charge to
the jun, said if the publication was
without negligence then the jury must
acquit. The jury must be satisfied be
yond a reasonable doubt that the publi
cation was made negligently and ma
liciously, otherwise their verdict must
be for defendants. Continuing, he said:
It is the duty of the commonwealth to
pro\e malice. If tlie words used were
necessarily of a character to blacken
reputation, and tlie charge is false, the
law presumes malice. In this case there
is no evidence or allegation of any spéc
ial meaning, and therefore the meaning
is to be gathered from the whole article
eu fij e Çt, and after obtaining all
light possible. The jury, after being
out one hour, returned a verdict as
above.

RED LODGE NEWS.
[From the Picket.]
Major H. J. Armstrong had to kill six
of his horses last week on account of the
glanders.
Hon. Thomas H. Carter is a stock
holder in the Red Lodge Republican
Publishing company.
Bill Nichols came in from Grove creek
Tuesday and reports that a new strike
has been made on the Eva L. mine in
that camp. There is very little work
done on this property. The owners are
running a tunnel in and encountered ore
when in only thirty feet. The owners
will have the ir ineral assayed at once.
There is some talk of organizing a
combination among those owning coal
oil reigons out near Rosebud lake for the
purpose of working the properties in the
spring. The object, as near as we can
learn, is for all parties to put their prop
erty in a pool and buy machinery and de
velop it and sell it in bulk to some com
pany. It seems to us that this is a good
idea if all interested could agree upon
some plan. The Standard Oil company
would not put a dollar in the oil claims
unless they were thoroughly developed.
CASTLE CULLINGS.
[From the Tribune.]
Over twenty men are employed at the
Yellowstone. In each of the two drifts
now ljeing run on the 400 foot level, good
ore is encountered.
It is claimed that six men could get
out of th« Cumberland all the ore that
is needed to supply the two furnaces in
the next ninety days.
Henry Kurtz c.alculates to remove the
machinery now stationed at the working
shaft of the Iron Chief to the one in
which ore was recently found on that
claim.
On Wednesday afternoon tlie large fur
nace of the Cumberland was blown in.
The smelter is now running out bullion
at the rate of about thirty tons each
twenty-four hours.
It was T. S. Ash who managed the
Cumberland when the Yellowstone smel
ter made the successful sixty days run on
the Cumberland company's ore. Now
that that company has acquired this
plant and this gentleman is manager, the
people here expect of him the same suc
cess that was formerly achieved by his
company.
