**INDIGNANT BECAUSE HE WAS ARRESTED ON A VAGRANCY CHARGE**
With his head swathed in bandages, which were secured in place with tape, Ed Wilson appeared in the police court this morning and indignantly denied that he was a vagrant. The charge was made that Wilson found his way to "Red" Foley's saloon last night with a wound in his head that appeared as though it was made by a sharp instrument. Foley told him to leave; he refused to go and the police were notified. Wilson claimed he came to Butte from Anaconda yesterday and begged to be let off with a suspended sentence, but the police judge sent him to the county jail for 20 days.

# GIRL BUYS MAN IN ONE INSTANCE
**More Details of Workings of That Alleged "Marriage Market."**
Los Angeles, Jan. 6.—As a result of charges made by Elsie Kandorff, a 17-year-old Russian girl, that her parents had tried to sell her in marriage to a man whom she never had met, at a consideration of $500, it was announced by the authorities who investigated the irregular matrimonial doings in the Molokane colony, that investigation of the colony had indicated a willingness to have the ceremonies performed over again after they had received the purchase price.
Mme. J. Van Wagner of the city home mission society stated that at least one illegal marriage a week was performed in the Molokane colony.
"These people are ignorant and follow the ceremonies of their church in the most resolute faith," she said. "I do not think there is any such thing as buying brides or forced marriages in the colony. I do not know of any specific case of actual payment for a bride, but am told of many where 'gifts' are exchanged. These 'gifts' are always of a money consideration and are received by the father of the bride from the groom, but I have knowledge of exactly where the bride benefits from it."
The immigration service and the district attorney's office are investigating the matter.

# REASONABLE COAL RATE IN DISPUTE
**Issue is Submitted at Helena. Large Sum in Hands of Court.**
Helena, Jan. 6.—The question of whether 35 cents a ton is a reasonable rate for the Montana, Wyoming & Southern railway, running from Bridger, in Carbon county, to the Bear Creek coal mines, a carbon district, was argued and submitted to Circuit Judge William H. Hunt today by the application of the railway company for a permanent injunction to prevent the Montana railway commission from enforcing its ruling for a 35-cent rate. The case, which embraces about the first important rate control culmination of this state, was heard before a master in chancery, whose reports findings supporting the claim of the railway that the 35-cent rate for the 40-mile haul was confiscatory and holding that about $50,000 representing freight and property remaining order was counsel to the federal court upon the filing of the case in October, 1910, under the terms of which the railroad company has been collecting from the shipper at the 40-cent rate and paying into court 10 cents for each ton of coal hauled by it. The money now in the custody of the court amounts to over $55,000.

**Mail Wagon Takes Slide From Granite to Park—No One Hurt.**
The United States mail wagon went down Main street faster last night than it ever went before, and those who heard the story of the runaway will be assured that a record must have been established.
The peg pin broke on the wagon, and in a flash the wagon was at the corner of Granite and Main. Nobody, however, was deceived to swerve as they passed by the Oregon Short Line office. The driver, Tom Harrington, was not on the wagon. The horses swung to the saloon on the west side of the street, and went down and on the other side of the pole. They were finally captured on the corner of Park street and Quartz. The wagon broke away from the harness, stopped quickly gathering speed, took hold of the gravel and until the team were released. Harrington was not hurt when the horses. The horses belonged to Tom Lavell.

**Are You Blue and Worried?**
Nervous? Some of the time really ill? Catch cold easily and frequently suffer from biliousness or headache? The reason is that your system demon is finding itself at others expense. It is as impossible as it is for the grate of a stove to rid itself of ashes. The blood—the great carrier by which the doctors do to the stores of the system—the one thing which poisons have accumulated and thus prevented its burning at all. Your liver is sluggish—you are dull and heavy—sleep disturbed—your vision troubled. It is the poisons from an overworked liver. Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery eradicates the poisons from the body—it stimulates and gives extract made from bloodroot, golden seal root, Oregon grape root and queen's root, without the use of alcohol. No matter how strong the constitution
---the strength is not to be impaired in consequence the blood is disordered, for the stomach is the laboratory for the constant manufacture of blood.
Mrs. Berta Blank, of Fort Dover, Col., Rt. 5V, writes: "I have been taking Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and find it beneficial for female troubles, bloating, constipation and nervousness—at times I would be unable to be up and about for from one to two weeks. Three years ago I began getting worse, got so bad I had to go to bed every month for several days, caused from chronic inflammation of stomach, etc. For nineteen years I feel this condition and the last year of the disease I had to have the doctor. My brother told me about Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and Dr. Story's Cascarets Remedy. I have taken the Golden Medical Discovery faithfully for three years and can say it has entirely cured me. I go about my work and walk with pleasure. I feel like a new woman. I enjoy everything I did before. Doctor Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate liver and bowels."

**LA FOLLETTE ON WAY TO INDIANA**
**Closes Speaking Campaign in Illinois—Harangues Wall Street.**
Danville, Ill., Jan. 6.—That Wall street is responsible for every panic the country has suffered and none would have occurred if the federal government in whose symptoms appeared had threatened to sue those who offended, was the theme of the institutions unless they censured the disorder or corrected the wrong. Speaking at LaFollette in the closing address of his Illinois campaign, he declared monopolies should be squeezed out of over-capitalized corporations, he said, and the government should take over their earnings with banks to exploit the public for profit.
Senator La Follette goes to Terre Haute, Ind., where he is scheduled to speak Sunday before leaving for his address at Richmond, Ind., tonight.

**LIKE A TATTOO ARTIST.**
Richard la Tablette, the poet, said at a luncheon: "A tattoo artist, thinking of the policy pending recently granted by the government, made a remark to me in Venice:
"'Sir, I am a good tap for poetry. The poet might work his eighteen hours a day, copying day and night at an untidy, but nevertheless Edison, and still lack food and shelter.'
"Edison was a red-haired man in Philadelphia. Devouring all the evil that industry can't hold, he painted a great artist literally.
"'I am a poet, not a tattoo artist; yet it is a literal fact that I do all my art-ing—thinking with an empty stomach.'—New York Tribune."

**FOR RHEUMATISM**
Rheumatism is caused by an excess of uric acid in the blood, which grows into the joints and muscles, impairing digestion, constipating the kidneys action, and other irregularities of the system which are sometimes considered as separate and distinct ailments. The real cause of them all is an impure condition of the blood, and the circulation instead of nourishing the different parts of the body has been neglected. The acid deposits itself into the muscles and joints, the irritating, pain-producing acid with which it is filled. Rheumatism, whether chronic or acute, can only be cured through the blood, and this is just what B. B. S. does. It goes down into the circulation, and by neutralizing the uric acid and driving these impurities from the blood quickly and surely removes the cause. S. & S. strengthens and invigorates the blood so that it can properly nourish the muscles and joints and other parts of the entire system; it becomes an invigorating, nourishing fluid, furnishing health and vigor to every part of the body and relieving the suffering caused by this painful affliction. S. & S. stands at the head of all purely vegetable blood purified and cure for Rheumatism in any of its forms. Book on Rheumatism and any medical advice desired free to all who write.
