During the absence of Mr.. Slater
from his store at Davis last Sunday
some person or persons entered the
store, passed into an adjoining room
where he slept, and raising the lid of a
trunk, took therefrom roll of bills
containing $3.50. BY the side of the
bills was a sack containing $3.50 in
gold and three dollars IN silver, which.
for some reason was not molested.
The money had been drawn out of the
Turner County Bank here in Hurley
the day previous. and was to be used
in paying Fred Boterman's hog checks.

picions as to the guilty parties, and it

Mr.. Thos. Blundell remarked to the
editor Of the Herald this week that
Notwithstanding the poor crops of
Turner county this year he would not
return to Wisconsin to live for deed
of the best 160 acre farm in the state.
He stated that berore leaving that
state he was troubled with asthma to
such a degree that there would be
weeks at a time in which he could not
lie down, but that he was obliged to
get what rest he could while sitting in
chair. Since coming here, however,
he has been able to sleep soundly
every night, his old disease not troub-
ling him in the least. This talk with
Mr.. Blundell brought to mind a COM
munication recently published in one
of the state papers. in which the writ
er, who was an eastern man, and who
had been greatly benefited by this eli
mate. stated that one mistake of Da-
kota editors was that they did not full
ly set forth the healthfulness of the
climate, that its dry atmosphere was a
grand sanitarium for those suffering
from consumption and kindred dis
eases.
