a ona STOPPED BY SOLNIERS. Montana’s Commane Intercepted at Forsythe by Troops. An Order to Surrender is Promptly Obeyed by General Hogan.—Four Hundred Men Taken in.—Leaders Of The Army Are Charged With Grand Larceny. Forsythe, Mont, April 26.—Mid- night saw the end of the Butte con tiogent of the Coxey army that is marching on to Washington. For sixty hours all traffic on the North ern Pacific tracks had been stupped in this State, and during all that time a train has been runnivg wild from the mountains to this point, where it was taken in charge last night by Colonel Page, with 500 men from Fort Keogh. This place is forty three miles west of the fort, and the military had been ordered to hold themselves in readiness to intercept the train wen it arrived at that point. At dark last night the stolen train was at Sanders, fifteen miles west of here, and coming very slowly witk an old “hog” engine. The authori ties came to the couclusion that an aggressive movement was desirable, as it was feared that the Coxeyites would remain all night at Forsythe and there paint the town. Two special trains were quickly made up and the regiment loaded on board It wasa grim sight as the men stood at rest, with the flickering lights shinivg on muskets and faces almost happy looking at the chance for alittle relaxation from garrison duty. The regiment, with ten days’ rations, all field equipments and usual wear, but expect to use their conserved energy there to make more noise than the weary plodders who are on their toilsome way. They expect to start the first of May. DROVE OUT OPERATORS.

He suid tbat he did not belong to any of the armies advancing Washingtun, being, in fact, a whole army himself, but he had undertaken to see that the people were allowed a hearing in Washington.

It cannot be denied that the intlu ence of climate upon health is great, and it is in recognition of this fact that physicians send patients suffer ing with pulmonary diseases to great distances for “change of air.” But when the sufferer happens to be too poor to act upon the advice his lot is hard indeed. But it is not nece:- sarily hopeless Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery can be had at ay medicine store, and to it thousanay whose cases were considered desper ate owe their lives. Up toacertain pointin the pro gress of Ccnsumption, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is a posi tive remedy. But delay is danger ous with Consumption. In all the conditions that lead to it, the “Dis covery’ is the remedy. With seveer lingering Coughs or Weak Lungs, nothing acts +o promptly. Every disease that can be reached through the blood yields to this medicine The Scrofulous affections of the lungs that’s called Consumption is one of them. For this, and for every other form of Serofula, for all blood- taints and disorders, and all chronic Bronchial, Throat and Lung aftec ticns, the “Discovery” is the only remedy so certain that it can be guaranteed.
