JAY HICKS
South Dakota Murderer Pays the Dealt
Penalty for an Afracions Crime.

South Dakota Murderer Pays the Death
Penalty for an Atrecious Crime.
Jay Hicks, at StnrgiS, the county
seat of Meade County, suffered the
death penalty for one Of the most
brutal murders ever committed in the
Black Hills. Hicks had often made
the assertion thai he would die fight
ing, and as a consequence more than
ordinary attention Asas attracted to
the execution. When sentenced a
month or so ago it required the united
efforts of all the court officers to o
troll him. and so i%ncensed were the
Spectators that it was with the great
est difficulty that the officers prevent
ed the people from taking the law in
to their own hands and anticipating
the sentence Of the court.
Contrary to expectations, Hicks was
very quiet and mate no resistance,
but marched to the scaifold conlly and
maintained an air Of bravo until the
drop fell. But beneath the assump-
ton OF courage could be detected the
ralior OF fear, and before the drop fell
he percep.iblv weakened.
The crime for which he was exc
cuted was the murder last December
Oh an Olu farmer nanlcu meyer, WhOnl
he thought possessed considerable
money. The murder was a most brutal
one, and the confession of his brother,
who was an a%ccomplice. and Il man
named Walker, who assisted in the
killing, stamped Hicks as u man de-
serving Of no sympathy whatever and
whose death was merited ten times
over. Walker aud Hicks brother are
serving long terms inthe penitentiary
Tor their share in the crime.

PIERRE HEALTH RESORT.

Mineral waters Said 10 Possess Marvellous
Curative Properties.
With the tapping Of an immense
flow OF water at a depth OF l, 200 feetln
the new artesian we'll, began a new
epoch in Pierre's history, which Will
make it one of the leading health re-
sorts Of the country. About eighteen
lion,hs ago the United States Govern
ment drove Il well at its Indian INDUS
trial School at that place, tho water
Of which was found TO contain many
medi, inal properties: both for Internal
and external use. BY permission OF
the Government a small bath mouse
was erected near the well, and people
came from far and near, both from
this state aud others, 10 try its cura-
tive powers, and many, some almost
wonderful. cures were reported:
especially in cases Of rheumatism and
diseases of the skin. liver, spleen, Kid.
neys. stomach and intestlneS. ohe OF
the most noticeable and ~pronounced
cures effected by the water was that
OF scrOtulOus sores on Indians. L ne
man, owing to his filthy manner OF
living and the fact that their principal
food is meat, are always subject to
scrofula, and there seemed to be no
remedy that would cnre II. soon aftor
the putting in of the baths at the
school it was noticed that this malady
was disapl caring, and upon lnvesti-
cation it was found that the water
was curing it. The great crowds go
ing TO and from the baths disturbed
the little redskins in their studies and
the authorities ordered the house re-
moved. . Seeing and approaching the
great value that such IL we'll would be
to the city. Pierre's enterpris!ng bust.
ness men decided to have u we'll of
their own. In July last they began
their lubors, and now standing IN the
glare of the light from the natural
gas which flows from the well, they
have realized their fondest hopes.
The new we'll must have tapped the
same vein as the n at the Indian
School, for in volume. temperature
and pressure they are almost identical,
and local physicians say that, upon
hasty examination. the water appears
to contain the same mineral medicinal
properties. A sanitarium and nata-
forum will be built immediately in
connection with u hotel, which Is
owned by wealthy New Workers who
are on the ground and who say they
will spare no expense to make Pierre
bne of the greatest health resorts OF
the North west.

of all cases of consumption can, If taken III
the earlier stages of the disease, be cured.
This may seem like a bold assertion to
those familiar only with the means gener-
ally in use for its treatment as, nasty cod
liver oil and its filthy emissions, extract
of malt, whiskey, different preparations of
hypophosplites and such like pGh!afiors.
Although by many believed to be incura-'
BILE, there is the evidence of hundreds OF
living witnesses to the fact that, IN all its
earlier stages, consumption is a durable
disease. Not every case, but a large per-
csniaee Of cases. and we believe, JmHy qS
per- cenk. are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
b%lcedlngs from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoratior tinclud-
ing tubercular matter, great loss OF flesh
and extreme ernaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds Of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need mo- take
our word for it. They have, i'll nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have no interest whatever in mis-
representing them. and who were often
strongly rrejudiced and advised against
a trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
II surpasseS, Ill curative power over this
fatal inalady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted. Nasty cod.
liver oil and its filthy "emulsions'' and
mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
INT, or had only seemed to benefit a little for
a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey,
and various preparations of the hypophos-
phltes had also been faithfully tried in vain.
The photographs of a large number of

Murder Of Sam irvine.
The grand jury of McCook County,
In session at Salem, returned indlct-
ments for murder against Constable
Frank L. jackson, Thomas Wiley and
ex-Marshal n. L. Halle OF Montrose.
They are charged with the malicious
murder Of sam Irvine Of that town
early on the morning Of January /,
1894. Irvine and his wife had had
some trouble and had separated. Not
long after Irvine forcibly entered her
house and was arrested and jailed.
While attempting to break Jail he
was shot by Constable Jackson, who
claimed that Irvine was lying in wait
for him in his cell with an iron bar,
and refused repeated demands Of the
constable to throw out the bar and
surrender. Witnesses testified at the
time that it was only when Irvine vas
apparently about to spring on the con-
stable and brain him that the latter
fired the fatal shot.
The grand jury, last spring, by a
vote Of 4 to 4. failed to indict the men,
and its action now is a surprise to
The witnesses for the state
before the grand jury were Alexander
Irvine, brother of the alleged muir
dered man, and Mary breckenridge,
the latter's divorced wife.
