Mn. iI. R. STEVENs :
Dear SIr-I have been a great suffer.r from
Dropsy. I was confinsd to my houso more
than a year. Six months of the time 1 wus
entirely helpless. I was obliged to have two
men hell) me in and out of bed. I was swollen
nineteen Inches larger than my natural sizo
around my waist. I suffered all a mai could
and live. j tried all remedies for Dropsy. I
had threo different doctors. My friends all
expected I would dlie, many nights I wus ex.
pected to die before morning. At. last Vegetlne
was sent. in by a friend. I never shall forget
the flrst dose. I could realize its good effects
from allay to day : I was getting bettor. After I
had taken some five or six bottles I could sleei
quit,e well at nights. I began to gain now
(Iu(te fast. 4fter taking some ten bottles. I
could walk frotr one part, of my room to the
other. My appitito was good t.ho dropsy had
at. this tim' disappeared. I ept toking the
Vegetlne until I regained muy usual health. I
beard of a great many euros by using Vegetlne
after I rt out and was able to attend to my
work. f am a carpenter and builder. I will
also say it has cured an aunt of my wife's of
Neuralgia, wi)o had suffered for more thani
twenty years. Shesays she hris not. had an.
Neuralgia for elght months. I have given it
to one of my cl hidren for Canker itumor. I
Iave no doubtl. in m,yl iintd it will cure any hu
mor ; it is a great cleanser of the blood ; it, is
safe to give a child. I will recommend it, to the
world. My father is eighty years old, and he
says there is nothing like it to give strengtil
and life to an aget pIrson. I cannot be tot
thankful for the u.,e of ,. I am,
Very gratefulily yours,

4'.?RADO,
How Captain Slad-, the Terror of
Montnna, Was Strutlg up by the
Virginia (ity Vigtlant3,.
[ Rom the St. Iis Globe-Democral. ]
No sooner ha.d gold been dis
covered on Salmon River, at Daar
Lodge and along Qrasshopper
Creek, out in Montana, in tho spring
of 1862, than those and other gold
bearing localities wore at once
overrun with a crowd of gold
hunters from C.ifornia, Ocegon
and other W3storn Territories, and
by parties from the E istern States.
In duj courso of time the mines
west of the mount:ains sent in their
quota of men, among whom were
min my outlaws and desperadoes, in.
cluding~ such men as Henry Plum
mer, chief of the road-agent band,
Clatrley lRaevos, Moore and Skinner;
and no soon had these worthies got
the lay of the country than they
commenced operations, Around
the men just uauned gathered all
the desperate, dishonest an4 dis
loyal ele:nent, and these, quickly
organizing themselves into a baud,
with captain, lieutenants, secretary,
road agents and outriders, became
the terror of the country. Well
arinod and well r.onnted, the road
agents stoppel. coacles carrying
passengers and valuable freight,
and throve on booty wrung from
passengers by persuasion of arms.
In March, 1883, joore and lReeves,
in a drunken spree, killk a French
man, an Indian chief, a lame boy
and a papoose, and wounded sev
eral other parties, by protgiscuously
firing into a tapeo, whic4 so arous
ed the citizens of B .uocl that a
public meet.ing was held, and
Pluxtmer, Moore and )$eevea were
tried before 4 jiry of citizens.
JFlumtner was acquitted, but Moore
and Reeves were banished, and the
leniency of this verdict gave the
road agents and their associated
rougha an undisputed supren icy
for a time. Plummer got elected
sheriff of Bannock and of Beaver
)ead coi nty, and ljsed b is of%ce to
protect his gang. Robbery after
robbery and murder after murder
occurred in rapid, monotonous sue -
cession. Finally a prominent and
estimable citlzon nan ed Lloyd
agr.uder was robbed and killed
while returning from Virginia City
to Lewiston, and this stirred up
the citizens of B.mnnock, Virginia
And Nevada to form a vigilance
eoemittee. In a week or two the
raniiatiot s of k.b ).eag ue of safety
and order e,tended all over the
Territory, and on the 14th of
January, 1864, the power of the
banad was broken by the summary
execution of five of the chief
villains at Virginia City. Of these
tho most notorious was James A.
Slade. The Judge of the People's
Court in Virginia City at the time
of Sladet's hanging was Alex. Davis,
for.spr.ly a partner in the law iArm
.of Davis, Thoroughmau Ar, Warren,
Sof this city, and, understanding that
he was well posted in regard te
Slade's tragic end, a Glo1,e-.Der,o..
cr'at reporter asked him about his
iacquaintance with Slade.
"I heard of 8iade," Judge Davis
said, "long before I went out to
M5on.tana, in 1863. le was Super
intesdent of Hlolliday's Oyed.and
Expiess, having supplanted one
Jules ,in that pomiti, and between
Slade a.nd Jules ther~e was bit.ter
war. I got to Montana in 1868.
At that time Slade was off down
the Missouri River. He got in very
late that winter, some time in DeA
,ecember, I think. The Vigilance
B Committee had ou~t organized by
the the time he got Ikapk, .and he
joined it, and was one of the lead.
ing men, and very active in aiding
its operations.B ut he soon com-.
menced getting drunk, going inte
-saloons, slapping men in the face
,and.committing other insults and
,outrages. ,T;e had always a band
.of his men around him, so that if
any one resentinag an insult got the
.better of hi:n, ,theore were othere
t: behind to shoot him down. A corn
mon feat sof Slade's when on a spree
was what he ~called 'takcing the
town:' When he started on such
expeditions It was to uncoimmon
ting for the store-keepers to close
their stqres and pyt on thei igts,
so much was'~iIStaanh fwar
Thd Vigilane Oommlttae got L.
talking about this thing, and they
threatened to clean Slade out, or
take some action in regard to hie
conduct, Mater Brookle, Paris S.
Pfouts and myself were apologistq
for Slade, and whenever the people
threatened to hang him we would,
plead for him. We did that several
tiies, and for three months they
did't hang him. One day he caine
into town and got on a big spree,
during which he got into a fuse
with a nla naned Fairweather, one
of the first discoverers of Alder
Gulch, where Virginia City was
situated. Fairweather was a miner
and a hard working man, but he
had got drunk, and Slade had drawn
his men around him and there was
trouble of some kind, which ended
in the officers of the law arresting
Fairweather and bringing him into
the People's COurt, of which I was
Judge, Slade came into the court,
too, and commenced talking to
Fairweather, tolling him he would
not submit to tha officers of the
law, &c. The aherif-a man named
Fox-took out the writ to read,
when Fairweather grabbed the writ
out of the officer's hands -Slade
standing by him, whoopigg and
hallooing with all his right---and
then, shaking himself free, drew
his navy revolver with his right
band. Slado said, #'Go in, Bill i
I'm with you," and what with the
noise and the clicking of revolver
locks, there was quite a sensation ill
the court-room, I assure you. I
got down off the bench and told
Slade I had done a great de:l for
him, but that if this thing was to
go on he might just as well make
the issue right then and there. At
this Slade quieted down, said he
was my friend, that he had always
liked me, but didn't like this follow
Fox, the sheriff. I told him that
Fairweather would have to submit
to the law which the people had
made, wheregpon Slade and his
crowd marched.
There was by this time quite 4
conmotion among the miners all
along the gulch. Couriers ran down
to Nevada "ity, a mile and a half
off, and gave the alarm, which soon
becar4e general. I was in a store
talking to a man named Locke, who
had had some goods stolen, when
S)ade came in with a cooked Der,
ringer, caught me by the collar an'l
aaid, "You are my prisoner." I s.&ici
"All right, Slade," and kept on talk
ing to Locke. Slade then gave me
a little jerk and said, j'$y --
mean what I say. You are my pris
oner. They are going to hang me,
and I am going to hold you as e
hostage." I saw the cocked Der.,
ringer in his hand, and I put my
hand up to his arm, and as I did so
a man by the name of Bill Runt
stepped up-he had two revolvers
in his hands-and he said to Slade,
"You let 4.in go," and, turning to
me said, '"Go where you please; if
he touches you I'll kill him." I told
him I didn't think Slade was going
to hurt me. Slade then asked Hunt,
"What have you got to do with it t"
to which Hunt replied that he had
nothing to do wito it, but that I
was a representative of the people
tbere, and in addition to that I was '
his friend, and he didn't intend to
see me hurt. With that the two
men got into conversation. Hunt
said, "Slade, if I had been sheriff
this morning the Srst thing I'd have
done when I got up would have
been to arrest you, and if I'd done
it, 1 shiould, .perhaps, have- saved'
your life. The way you are going
on now yoiu will be hanged before
sunset." Slade says, -"By ---
we'll elect you sherifft" Hunt said,
No, he didn't desire to be Sheriff;s
he didn't desire to do anything but
what he had 4onse. Just then 8hle
coremenced apologising-he was
just that bind of man-.saying he
was only joking with me, didn't in
tend harming me, but that he lik.e4
me very much. Hunt said, "All
right," and the two finally started
out to get something to drink.
Slade soon came book, and again
apologized for what he had done,
said he didn't intend anything 'by it,
and asked mny pardog. I told him
it was granted, apd oommendd
p leading with .bin to get on his
horse and gp home. WIe promtised
to do it, We started ont as if be
.was going' home' In .e short ~tinie
he was agailn in front of the store oul

'wanted to asbake hands. with me bem,
