The mo: interesting part of his testimony was Lus ck on Colonel Picquart, which will ndoubtedly lead to the confrontatiop of | the two men. He treated Dreyfus with- | out_mercy, both in words and _attitude. In fact, it seemed at times as though he would vrovoke the prisoneg into striking | him. The general's manner was most passionate. In his outburst &t the end of his -testimony he uitered the most | ruthless attacks with the air of one de- | livering a pleasant Sunday-school ad- dress, leaning over the front of the wit- ness rall, sipping from a glass of water, | wiping his 1ips and mopping his brow | with perfect self-satisfaction. But again | and again he would half-turn in his chair | and, pointing his finger at Dreyfus, would repeat some cruel accusatlon, at the same | time fixing his eyes on the prisoner, his head inclined forward like that of a cobra waiting the moment to strike. Dreyfus was not affected and steadily re- turned his gaze, sometimes throwing a glance at the president of the court, though appealing for permission to reply. Once, when General Roget had flung one | of these darts, he stopped and deliberate- paused. One could see the fire in llr() fus’ eyes and In his tightly clenc¥ed B jaws could be divined the atruggle that was going on within him.

C., Aug.:16.—Miners who reached here this morning 3 by the steamer Dirigo bring news of the findirig of a strange lake, about a quarter of a mile wide, a few miles from the canyon of the ‘White Horse. The water of the lake is lukewarm, and strange to say, considering that it js so far from salt water, as bitter as any salt water. The miners, after investigating the stories of the Indians of that vi- cinity in reference to their find, bélieve the lake lies in the crater of an b extinct volcano.

John Newton and Alexis Yeager, two. young ranchers of Augustus, near here, had an encounter this morning with a huge snake, which had for hours terror- ized the people in’ the business section of the town. ‘The snake was first seen when it was wiggling its way from a sewer trap, it having forced the huge iron cap from its setting. The business men fled to their stores, locking the doors, and ‘securing Euns and crowbars and other Weapon: efore venturing out. The local druggi: declares the snake to have been twenty | feet in length and as large in dlameter as ordinary fire hose. Several shots were fired at it -as It crawled along between the car tracks, | and one stray bullet killed a horse tied | to_a barber’s pole. The snake, on the approach of a street car, coiled itself into a cone-like shape and struck at the car, trlghtenln§1 the horses, which in turn ran away with the car full of passengers. Fortunately the horses were soon caught and no one was Newton and Yeager, two cowboys, rode into town, and were almost u ’an the rep- tile before discovering it. hey pulled | their guns, and, mounted on their horses, began to pour lead on the snake. The lat- ter did not present a good target, and the men dismounted and fought it on foot.

But it You ‘Have Kidney or Bladder Trouble It Will Be® Found: Just the Remedy You Ne Kidney trouble preys upon the minad, discourages and lessens ambition; beauty, vigor and cheerfulness: soon disappear when the kidneys are out of order or diseased. Kidney trouble has become so preva- lent that it is not uncommon for child to be born aflicted with weak kid- neys. If the child urinates too often, | if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when | the child reaches an age when it should | be able to control the passage, and it | is yet afflicted with bed-wetting, de- pend upon it, the cause of the difficuity is kidney trouble, and the first step should be toward the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble is due to a diseased condition of the kidneys and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose. So we find that women as well as men are made miserable with kidney and bladder trouble and both need the same remedy. The.mild and the im- mediate effect of Swamp-Root is soon | realized. It is sold by druggists, -in fifty-cent and one dollar -sizes. You may have a sample bottle by mail free, also pamphlet telling all about it, in- cluding many of the thousands of. tes- timonial letters received from sufferers cured.
