influence is healing. To continue their
effect in constipated or chronic cases, they
need only be taken in diminishing instead

habitants Or travellers in sparsely settled
countries where physicians arc not at

There is hardly q sickness they will not

promptly. To young girls Just entering

simon's Comedy Company.

OF this excellent company which APP
pears here for three successive nights, the
Milwaukee Sentinel says
Sinlon's Comedy company have been
giving an excellent and attractive series
Of performances at the Academy during
the week, including "The Ticket.o of Leave
Man." "The Long Strike" 1.-The Little
Detective" "Too Late. and Solomon
Isaacs" This company, which has now
been in the theatrical circuit for four
years, is growing into greater popularity
and reputation each succeeding season.
Mr. Simon, whose family all reside in
Milwaukee, and who is himself scion OF
the Cream City, was in the first flush OF
his dramatic career somewhat apprehen-
sive that some of the self made and sell
appointed local critics would visit upor
him the aff1iction which is usually heapei
upon prophets in their native territory
and he would be denied the honor Il
which he was justly entitled. Mr.. Simon
has, however surmounted all difficulties
and has placed himself at the head of ont
Of the most promising theatrical organ
izations in the country. He is himself al
actor of no mean pretensions. His inn
personation of the character of Solomon
| Isaacs" has won for him as striking al
individuality as that achieved by NJ. B
Curtis, in the equally characteristic play
of s'Sam1 of Posen, and he bids fai
before another season is over to rival hi
felicitious prototype.

Albert Lesson claims to be the head
dyer at the cotton factory in South Rock
Islam. Last evening he was found near
Rinck's grocery on Seventh avenue,
beastly drunk and almost unable tomove.
Officer McCabe got the Armory wagon,
and brought Lesson to the station house,
where he sobered off during the night.
This morning Police Magistrate Chopper
fined him SO and costs. Lesson says he
went over to Davenport to hire some
hands to work at the factory, but he i'm
bihed too much "ire water" and was laid
out.

Regular correspondence to the Argus
MILAN, Nov 12-The Presbyterian
church choir gave their concert last Fri
day evening, according to announcement
previously given through the columns of
the ARGUS. The good people of the
village did not evidence as great interest
in an entertainment given by home talent
as they should, whether it was exceptionally
good or passably pleasing. Our capabili
ties are not those of first class critic,
and we desire to speak only as an attentive
listener, yet we do not wish to make any
one person the darling theme of contem-
plation.
Miss E. A. Young presided at the piano
the entire evening. The Introductory of
the exercises was a selection by Miss
Young, Music Among the Pines" The
Interpretation was good and justified
Miss Youngs claim to artistic work on
the piano. Daughter of Zion was rem
dered by Mr.. Charles Owens and chorus
Mr.. Owens has better control of his voice
than any other of the male participants
and he displayed this power to good
advantage.
Miss Alice Dixon gave the audience a
rich treat in the song, ''Just Beside the
Golden Gate" She was assisted by a
quartet. 1t was one of the most difficult
songs of the evening and Miss Dickson
handled it admirably
Messrs. Zahn, Owens, Muse and Goble,
of the Owl club, gave "Three Buzzing
Bundle Bees with their usual accuracy
of time and adherence to expression. One
| fault, however, is plainly apparent, viz:
the sacrificing of melody and harmony to
noise. This is bad for every one of the
four except Muse, as it is as one of the
"kids" remarked, che is a roarer.'
An excellent diversion from the usual
concert program was the drill of the
Broom Brigade" Being tastefuliy
uniformed and well drilled. they made a
very fine appearance, and yet they were
only girls.
, A duet, "Star of Descending Night" by
Mr.. Zahn and Miss Jennie Owens was a
pleasing song, yet it was marred some
what by faulty tones. Miss Owens has a
| strong voice and her singing would be
much better if she would use little care
in the formation of tones.
Hear Dem Bells" of the burnt cork or
der was given by Mr.. Owens in good
style. The pleasing effect of the echo
was especially noted. The rendition Of
, Golden Years" by Miss Hattie Howens,
was a surprise to many, as Miss Hattie is
a new candidate for singers honors
Il Know Bank, by the Misses Alice
Dickson and Jennie Young was higt
!, order. Miss Young was very sweet alto
! voice that is seldom equalled in the coun
, try side.
A very comical song was "ProfundC
' Passo," by William Muse. 1t was tick
ler,' and appealed strongly to the ''ear.

Some Interesting Facts Ab0ut the Lum-

Mr.. E. W. Durant, the well known
lumber man of Minnesota, was inter-
viewed the other day by Chicago re-
porter, in regard to the lumber interests.

100000 feot of logs Some idea of
the strong conservative feeling there is
in logging circles Can be obtained when
tell you that our cuts this year will not
exceed 12,000,000 feet. All over the
state there is this conservative feeling, and
there is TO be much smaller cut this

Croix, last year there were cut 325, 900.
600 feet of logs; on the Upper Mississippi
and its tributaries, $50, 100000 feet-this
covering the entire state-and this amount
will be reduced to so per cent this year.
There is feeling that the present prices
do not justify the cutting Of an equal
amount with former years, and added Il
this is the fear of the forests becoming
exhausted. The feeling of the urgent
need of preserving the timber enters
largely into the matter"

years. There are good many logs cut
along the lines of the railroads, but the
main cut is on the St. Croix and the Upper
Mississippi and its tributaries. There is 1
singular fact about the land which is lef
bare by the cutting down of these pint
forests. No pine trees grow up in the
place of those which have been cut down
Poplar, birch and black jack Norway, q
species of pine, grow up in place of til,

When the forest lands are burned over
