Sioux Falls is nov o prohibition city q
fact that some of the NorwesiaDs who
advocated the reform cannot ssyet fully
comprehend, Those of that nationality
who voted for prohibition last November
and we're refused their regular quart of
alcohol upon their visit to this city on
Monday, the date upon which the new
regime went into effect, expressed q
good deal OF dissatisfaction with the new
order of things. They were under the
impression, it seems, that the refusalsto
grant county and city retail licenses for
the sale OF liquor would cheaper alcohol,
Some even we're inclined to the belief
that prohibition would give them free
alcohol, and therefore they worked for
the success OF the measure early and late,
casting an almost solid Norwegian vote
aRainst the saloons, in the rural precincts
How this ides gained currency among
our foreigh-born agricultural voters is
not very clear. hnt SIS the prohibitionistf
were about the only c%anvasaers in tbe
farming districts, it is just possible that
they deviated from their usual straight
and narrow courRe to create this deln-
sion IN the minds of this element Ii
| county politics.

A Dream Of Fair women.

Tcnnyson in his exquisite poem
dreams of O long procession of lovely
women OF ages past. This is all very
well, but the laureate would have done
the world q greater Eervice if he had only
told the women of the present how they
coHld improve their health and enhance
their charms. This he might easily have
done by recommending the use of DIR.
Pisrce's Favorite Prescription. Health
is the best friend of beauty, and the
innumefable ills to which women are
peculiarly subject, it's worst enemies.
Long experience has proven that the
health OF womank;nd and the "Favorite
Prescription" walk hand, in hand and
are inseparable.. It is the only medicine
for women, sold by druggists, under q
positive guarantee from the mannfac-
lures, that 1t will give satisfaction in
every case, or money will be refunded.
This guarantee has been printed on the
bottle-wrapper, and faithfully carried
out for many years.

New York special: The six great coal
companies to-day decided to make .
reduction Of 80 cents q ton in coal, and
the new schedules have been made up
on that scale. The following are the
new prices for the spring schedules:
Broken, $3,75; egg, 81; stove. 1925, and
chestnut, $4,25. This reduction is re-
gulsrly made every spring, but the new
schedules, were delayed about two weeks
in order to wait for a general resumption
OF production in the coal field before
deciding On the prices. The spring
prices as given above are 10 cents higher
than the spring schedules In 1887. One
OF the most prominent coal presidents
says that after the reduction was made
the dealers who have been waiting for
the schedules began to rush orders in SO
fest thst it was impossible to handle
them. He states that there is no bitter
ness between the companies, but all are
working in harmony for tie best inter
ests OF the trade.

Washington, March 10--There is much
interest 30 ASCERTAIN what the action of
the president is likely 10 be upon the de.
pendent pension bill, sshish he's passed
ths senate. The assumption Of those
who have supported this bill, especially
for It's promoters, the Grand Army OF
the Republic, has been thes the president
would sign ii. This assumption is based
upon ~inferences which the pension COM
mittee of the g. A. e. drew from the in
terview with the president while here
this winter. The bill was accepted by
5the senate on the principle that half 8
losf is better than no bread. To-day it
went to the house. There does not
seem to be any very earnest effort to
bring IL mp for immediate confederation
there, and there are slready rumors that
the democratic leaders in that body,
fearing that the president might veto ii
il sent to him, do NOT dare to take the
risk prior to the presidential campaign
OF an sct Of the executive which
would be so disastrous. Theirs is great
probability that the bill may be pigeons
holed until after the presidential CAM
paign.

TAKEN TO THEIR HOMES.
The Two Ladies From Milwaukee
Who Were Injured in the Cable
Accident

The Two Ladies From Milwaukee
Who Were Injured in the Cable
Accident.
In special car, attached to the Chi
cago, Milwaukee q ST. Paul train which
left the union depot last evening, were
two of the victims of the cable road
accident of Jan. 81, who since that event
have been confined to their apartments
at the Ryan. They were Mrs. Seaman
and her sister,. Miss Thorsen, both of
Milwaukee. and daughters of John
ThorSen, the wealthy lumberman of
that city.
Mrs. Seaman, who was injured about
the face. has recovered her health and
strength in great degree, but her face
is terribly Scared, and will ever be a
horrible reminder of that dreadful day.
Not so with Miss ThOrsen, for while
she escaped any facial Disagreement,
the fire which started in the wrecked
car burned her terribly from the waist
down to her feet, and it is thought that
she will never fully regain the use of
her limbs, but will be MANNED for life.
III removing her from the hotel to the
, cars, twas found necessary to splinter
the injured members. and a stretcher
was called into requisition to make the
transportation more easy.
incidentally it has transpired that
neither of the injured ladies will bring
suit against the cable company for the
accident, but that the company will
settle literally with the sufferers with
out having recourse to the courts. Since
they have been confined to their rooms
at the Ryan everything possible has
been done for the comfort of the two
