A 2-year-old child was carried away by a mountain lion on Casper mountain on Thursday morning. A fruitless search has been made by herders of I flocks and miners, day and night, to find the baby. The little one is an orphan- whose mother ciled last year, and whose father had it put in the care and keeping of a family by the name of Henderson, who are herding sheep teir miles from at the head of "Cy" canon.

At daylight Thursday, Mr. Henderson arose and followed his flock, leaving his wife and the orphan charge sleeping in camp. When he returned at 9 o'clock for breakfast the woman was still fast asleep and the baby was gone. It had awakened and toddled off in its night dress. A search was at once made for the little one and its bare tracks were found leading to a spring nearly aj mile away.

Near the spring were found also fresh tracks of a huge mountain lion. No other trace of the babe has been found. There is known to be a den of four lions on Casper mountain. No hopes are entertained of findinof the baby alive. VaJaable to Women Especially valuable to-women is Brcm3' Iron Bitters.
