(Special to the Herald) Waldo, Nov. 20th—A fareas of unusual proportions was staged n the Waldo Hotel here on Saturday evening last, which turned out to he a rather serious affair. lt appears that a bunch of Russians from the Baker Lumber Company's camp near Haynes Lake wero drowning what sorrows they had in tlie cup tliat cheers, as also wore four Hindoos. Several of the Russians started In to Rive a cali- |a*r dance Intermixed with a few calisthenics around the Hindoos, and this to them was indicative that they wished a scrap, and a rough house started. Altogether thero wore twenty-five Russians against the four Hindoos, nnd for a ehoise or weapons this had n Donnybrook Fair bucked clean oft Uie map, such articles as conl oil lamps, while whiskey, bottles nd chairs figuring prominently in the lime light. Several of Uie participants wero knocked clean out of business, others receiving sculp ond face wounds which Kept the doctor busy until tho wee sir a hours of Sunday morning applying dressings.

In deed, the United States has mor** regular and State troops under the flag today than General Scott and General Taylor together commanded in their conquest of Mexico 70 years ■go. They had in the field 90,000 men. The biggest army Washington ever ' commanded which Included all the troops under arms at one time dur-' lng the Revolution, was only 68,000,; There are more American troops with he colors on the Rio Grande nt pres- j ent than there were at any one time in the war of 1811!.

The reception accorded to that old- time favorite "Ten Nights in a Bar- Hooin" on its appearance here last Saturday was nulto different to tbe manner in which it wus received u dacade or more ago and as far as lhe size of the crowd was concerned more nearly resembled a frost. "Ten Nights iu a Bar-Room" apparently litis outlived its welcome, at least in territory which has already voted In favor of prohibition. The supporting company wus fair though, not as well adapted to tlie parts as ou Iheir pre vn.iis appearance hen- in "Oilicei- tifiU." Tbe above represents the Dumber of yenrs spent in fruitless efforts to cure a bad case of eczema witb ordinary ointments, compared with the time it took Zam- Buk to effect a complete and permanent cure. Thii was the experience of Mr. II. C. Buckley of 461 East Broadway, Portland. Ore. Writing t» the Zam-Buk Co., he says: "For fifteen years 1 suffered with a bad case of eczema, and used all kinds of so-called "cures" and treatments, but nothing waa capable of curing me until I tried Zam- Buk. This wonderful balm, however, completely cured me In less than a year, and nol only so, but 1 have b.i.i no return of the dls* ease. I strongly recommend Zam- Buk to anyone afflicted aa 1 was." Tbis is but one of the hundreds of canes when Znm-IUik has effected a cure when everything else failed. Tbe reason Is easily explained. Zam-Ruk being unusually refined—containing absolutely no unlmfil fats or mineral drugs such as arc contained In ordinary ointments—is capable of penetrating to the underlying tissues where skin diseases have their roots. Ordinary ointments, on the contrary, never get beyond the surface skin and so are incapable of effecting permanent cures. Zam-Buk is just as good for salt rheum, ringworm, bolls, ulcers, abscesses, blood-poisoning*, piles, cuts, burns, scalds and all skin Injuries. All druggists or Zam-Buk Co., Toronto.

Here'* One on Jim Thistlebeak The peaceful atmosphere which generally pervades the Roosville Valley and International Boundary was somewhat rudely disturbed one day last week with Queer and peculiar noises which seemed to come from nowhere and which gave the residents chilly sensations. All sorts of notions and thoughts entered the minds of the people, and one rustic climbed to the roof of a barn and gazed long and anxiously towards the heavens expecting every moment to see a hostile airship hove in sight, but was doomed to disappointment, and is now suffering from a distorted neck. Some of the more venturesome inhabitants got together, and after holding a somewhat hurried convocation, decided to go further afield and investigate the mys- [jhry, and arming themselves with pike poles, cant hooks, hay forks and other ancient weapons of warfare sallied forth. After cruising around for some little time the leader of the party much to his amazement on climbing ovr a fenco discovered the source of alt the trouble stalled in the King's Highway, and which on closer investigation proved to be none other thau our old time friend and contemporary Jim Thistlbeak of Elko with his Ford Car which ho recently purchased. $5.00 SHOES $5.00 AT the present time when lt Is so difficult to procure Shoe Leather, Tf hen green hides are selling at 20 cents per pound, lt ls exceed* lngly difficult to get any kind of shoe to retail at 95.00.

Aeencv PICTORIAL REVIEW PATTERNS Vour Money Back If floods ore Dot as lie |,ro»rnl» d Butter Has Again Gone Up in Price! Dut I am going to lay In a stock of the Cranbrook nutter Company's finest Creamery Butter that they are still offering at the old price. I am mighty particular about the Butter I eat, it is so easily tainted, and unless made under the most perfect sanitary conditions and with the most rigid care I would not have it at any price. When a local concern like the Cranbrook Creamery stands behind every pound they turn out, with a money back guarantee, I can fell confident that everything is all right. For a limited time they offer the following low prices: — SELKIRK BRAND CREAMERV MTTER-per lb. 45c; 8 lbs for $1.80 KOOTENAY BRAND CREAMERY BITTER—per lb SOc; 8 lbs for $1.45 Both are first quality Creamery Butter that we sell with a money-back guarantee if not satisfactory. The Kootenay Brand is just Fresh Made, and many prefer it, but both brands are first class. These prices subject to change without notice. CRANBROOK BUTTER CO.
