The funeral services were held on Thursday. Porter had been at St. Johns for more than a year past working in the St, Johns Herald office and bad been home only a few daya when he met his death.

Editor. Death of Brigliam Nagle. It is with sorrow that we announce the death of Brigham Nagle, of Concho, who expired last Sunday afternoon af ter a short but violent attack of ty phoid fever. Mr. Nale was one of our most promising, rising young men, and a legion of friends extend their sym pathies to his mother in this great af fliction. Dr. Piatt informs us that the present water system of Concho is a menace to the health of the citizens. Some steps should be taken for its immediate im provement, as a sanitary measure, or we will hear of more untimely deaths. District Court.

The jury was drawn last Mon - dav and the Sheriff commenced at once the work of servine summonses and getting ready for Court. There are quite a number of criminal cases and several investigations for the Grand Jury. Value Recognized by Physicans. As a rule I am opposed to proprietary medicines. Still I value a good one, especially when such is the source of relief from pain. As a topical (exter nal) application I have found Chamber lain's Pain Balm the best remedy I have ever used for neuralgia of any kind, have conscientiously recommended it to many persons.

Disastrous Fire Shortly before 8 o'clock on Saturday evening last, smoke was seen issuemg from the stable in the rear of the old Monarch Saloon, the property of Severo Vigil. An alarm of fire was given and the citizens immediately turned out and went to work with a will, tearing down adjoining fences, gettine out bug giea and harness, and wetting down the roofs of the houses where there was any danger. They thus succeeded in keeping the fire confined to the sta ble, which was totally destroyed, burn ing to death three horses, which were unfortunately tied in the end of the stable where the fire started, and de stroying about eight tons of 'hay and half a ton of grain. The horses were owned bv Dionicio Duran and Tomas Ortega, and the hay and grain by J. R. Armijo. The total loss will amount to about 600 and was uninsured. A heavy rain had fallen during the afternoon which wet everything in the vicinity and was a great help towards keeping the fire from spreading and saved St. Johns from a destruction of property which is fearful to contem plate. In a recent letter to the manufact urers Mr. W. F. Benjamin, editor of the Spectator, Eushford, N. Y., says: "It may be a pleasure to you to know the high esteem in which Chamberlain's medicines are held by the people of yourown state, where they must be best known. An aunt of mine, who resides at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit me a few years since, and before leaving home wrote me, asking if thev were sold here, stating if they were not she would brine a auantitv with her. as she did not like to be without them." The medicines referrd to are Chamber- lam's Cough Bemedv, famous for its cures of colds and croup; Chamberlain's Pain Balm for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the side and chest, and Cham berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy tor bowel complaint. These medicines have been in constant use in Iowa for almost a quarter of a century. The people have learned that they are articles of great worth and merit, and unequaled by any other.

The deceased was- about 32 years of age, he had been complaining of pains his side for several days, but not thinking it anything serious had made arrangements to go out to the shearing camp on Tuesday afternoon.

Mary L Sherman. The Woman Suffragists. A reception was given at Armory Hall last Tuesday evening by the ladies of St. Johns, to the delegates of the Democratic Convention, and others m sympathy with the cause of woman suffrage. Mrs. Linda Scott presided t and being assisted by Mrs. W. A, Ten-1 ney, Mrs. J. B. Patterson, Mrs. John Patterson, Mrs. Ritchey and Misses Maud, Stella and Lottie Sherwood, and Mary L. Sherman. An interesting pro gramme was successfully carried out. The remarks of Miss Mary L. Sher man were listened to with careful at tention and heartily applauded. The common sense view of the issue at hand was explained in a way which made those who were wavering decide in favor of the justice of woman's 'claim to the privelege of the ballot. Major Piatt assisted in making the reception a success by a few appropri ate remarks. At the close of the exercises a dance was given under the management of Mr. W. A. Tenney. The young folks 'joining in the merry making, a most , delightful evening was spent. The guests were unanimous in their praise ! of the manner in which they were en- tertained. District Court was convened at this ' P'ace on Monday, , Sept. 14, by Judge obn Hawkins,, but owing- to the Judge being in poor health but little was accomplished and on Thursday morning Mr. Hawkins decided to ad- journ court for this county until Oct. 19, at which time he hopes to be able to clean up the docket. Holbrook Argus. Came in Handy. The foiling little campaign story il lustrates how the clever wife of a far mer utilized two candidates : "If it is not too eariy I would like to tell you acampaig story." remarked the chief of one of the bureaus of a downtown department. "One of the actors in it was very fre quently spoken of as a possible candi date before the Chicago Convention, though he was by no means the most prominent, and the other, by a pecu liar combination of events, has been spoken of in connection with the nom ination as Governor of his State. "The scene was .in a Western State, though neither of- the gentlemen re sides in that Statenow- "Both were candidates for a small county office, and both men, as they are now, were hustlers for anything they were after. "Thej' were making a house-to-house canvass, which was necessary at that time, owing to tne sparse population, and while they endeavored to work in different sections they frequently found themselves in the same neighborhood at the same time. "The occurrence. to which I refer to was at a farm about a mile distant from the village where both candidates were to speak the following day. The can didates kept their eyes pretty well on each other during the early part of the day, but during the afternoon they started out to do missionary work at the farmhouses. By a singular circum stance they landed at the same farm, though one did not know the other was there until later on. "The man first referred to, finding that the owner of the farm was absent, devoted himself to the wife, and, of course, said all kinds of nice things to her, making special inquiry after the children, whether they had caught the measels, which prevailed at the time, etc. The lady seemed charmed with the attention shown her, but said she would have to be excused, as she had to milk the cow. The candidate kind ly offered to assist in that performance saying that though he could not milk he could keep the flies off the cow, or at least hold her tail. "wniie "engaged holding the cow's tail he ventured to ask if his compet itor for the office had been around yet. 'Oh, yes answered the wife, 'he is here now. He is in the back barn and id holding the calf, for this cow will not give down her milk if the calf is in sight.' " Republic. DISEASES OP THE SKIN. The intense itching and smarting inci dent to eczema, tetter, salt-rhenm, and other diseases of the skin is instantly allayed by applying Chamberlain's Eye and Skin Ointment. Many very bad cases have been permanently cured by it. It is equally efficient for itching piles and a favorite rem edy for sore nipples; chapped hands, chil blains, frost bites, and chronic sore eyes. For sale by druggists at 25 cents per box.
