DURRANT'S HEW LEASE OF LIFE- His Hanging Indefinitely Postponed by the Court. W. H. T. Durrant, the condemned murderer of Minnie Williams, and pre sumably of Blanche Lamont, at Sacra mento, Cal., who was Thursday, sentenced to be hanged Friday, has secured another respite from the gallows. The Supreme Court has granted a writ of probable cause and Warden Hale, has been instructed not to hang Durrant until further orders from the Court. All the Judges concurred. OME OF TWO WAYS. The bladder was created for one purpose, namely, a receptacle for the urine, and as such it is not liable to any form of disease except by one ot two ways. The first way is from im perfect action of the kidneys. The second way is from careless local treat ment cf other diseases. CHIEF CAUSE. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kidneys is the chief cause of bladder troubles. So the womb, like the blad der, was created for one purpose, and if not doctored too much is not liable to weakness or diseases, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very close to the bladder, theiefore any pain, disease or inconvenience mani fested in the kidneys, back, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of some sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided. To find out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty four hours; a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble. The mild and ex traordinary effect of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp Root, the great kidney, and bladder remedy, is soon realized. If you need a medicine you should have the best. At druggists fifty cents and one dollar. You may have a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mail. Mention The Columbian and send your address to Dr. Kilmer & Co , Binghamton, N. Y.

Welsh at Orangeville, was shipped last week, to Youngstown, Uhio, via Adams Express. This calf is only abotit 4J mos. old, but in ap pearance was more like one six or seven months old. He is very finely bred. His dam is a young cow "Queen of Orange"' No. 7733, but one of most remarkable qualities. This is her second calf and at the end of her fourth month in profit she had to her credit a 10 pounds of butter.

" To produce a superior and profit able dairy cow, it is of the utmost importance that we select a sire bred cn dairy lines for generations, and the further back we can trace him de scending from superior dairy sires and dams, the better.

Supposing that you milk these cows ten years, you have a grand profit of $360 on the investment of $40 to $50. How a dairyman can say he cannot afford to use a good bull is beyond my comprehension. It is a fact that dairying has be come the foremost and most profitable industry for the farmer. No other branch of his business has, for a num ber of years, given him so good re turns, and yet in no other branch does the average farmer show so much neglect as in the breeding and raising of his dairy stock. Little or no thought is given as to the proper selection of a dairy bull. In many instances any bull at all is used, no matter how ill-bred ot scrubby he is, or how inferior individ ually, as long as he can be had for little or no service fee. Others use sires of true beef type and breeding. Would a breeder of trotting horses ever think of using a draft sire to pro duce trotters, or a breeder of draft horses use a trotting-bred sire to pro duce heavy horses? I think not; they breed for their special purpose. How, then, can the dairyman ever think of obtaining the best results under the manner m which he fre quently pursues his calling? When dairying can be made to pay under such circumstances, what would the possibilities be if intelligent use were made of the material within the reach of all ?" Well Pleased. The following letter has been received from the purchaser of the calf shipped from Dr. Welsh's farm last week. The' purchaser is a promi nent breeder of high-cjass Guernsey's in Ohio. 1 Ohio, Nov. 11, 1897. Mr. Mahlon Sager, Orangeville, Pa. Dear Sir, The calf arrived Tues morning shottly before I got into town. He was in good shape, though stiffened up as they always are after being shipped, but he is getting all right now.

Paris, Nov. 16. Dr. Thomas W. Evans, the famous American dentist, who assisted ln the escape of ex-Em-tress Eugenie, died here Sunday night. Dr. Evans was born In Philadelphia bont seventy-five years ago, and went to Paris in ISiC, where he won a great reputation. lie attended Napoleon III. md many other royalties. His fortune was estimated at from twenty-five to thirty-five million dollars. The secret of Dr. Evans' success as 1 dentist may be said to be due to the fact that he was practically the first person to introduce gold tilling for teeth Into Europe. One of his first customers was the Duchesae de Rochefoucauld, one of the most prominent ladles in Paris, and she was go satisfied with his work that she spread his fame throughout Paris, and from there to every capital 'jf Europe. The French Emperor, Napoleon III., vas one of Dr. Evans' best friends, as well as best patients. He was thor oughly trusted by every one at court. Many of the improvements under taken by Raron Haussmann, which made Paris the pleasure capital of the world, are said to have been under taken by the advice of Dr. Evans. Hull a Million Lout.
