A Terrible Ordeal.

Miss Ruth Baily was the victim of
a terri lie experience on Tuesday
night which seems much more Ike
the strangest fiction that a real fact.
She had been out riding in the even
ing and a little past 8 o'clock had
returned home, put her horse away
and gone to her O upstairs. On
rising Wednesday morning her par
ents discovered that she was miss
ing, nor had she ven retired. An
ordinary bed sheet tied to the bed
post and hanging suspended out of
the window Of her room told the
manner Of her departure and search
was at once instituted, but no trace
OF her could be found. When the
morning mail came it brought a let
ter from the missing girl dated at
Hermosa. She was brought back
to this city WEDNESDAY and made
the following statement:
After gong to her DON Tuesday
evening some indescribable power
which she was utterly unable to re-
si,t compete to leave her room
through the window. 1t was impos-
siple to get out of the house any
other way. Leaving her home she
states that two great eyes seemed
to be following her and forcing her
to hurry onward, and between the
hours OF 10 O'Clock Tuesday night
and 6 o'c ock Wednesday morning
she walked from Rapid City to Her
mosa, a distance of % miles. Ar
rivlng tired and footSore at the
home Of Thomas Monahan in the
latter town she asked to be allowed
to rest. Seeing that Miss Ruth was
temporarily deranged Mrs. Mona
han took her in and an hour later
she had become herself again and
by request wrote the letter above
referred to She remembers moth
ing Of her journey other than that
she was forced to 60.
She now lies bruised and sore at
her home, slowly recovering from
her terrible experience.

A Voice for McGoe.

EDITOR UNION.
At the request of many voters we
desire to suggest the name of Judge
Levi MCGEE as a proper person to
make the race for Judge Of the
seventh circuit at the coming cleo
ton, believing as I do that the Office
should seek the MAI for this m
! p%ortant position.
Five years ago Mr.. MCGEE was
fairly elected to this office, and at
his own expense carried the cas- t o
the Supreme Court, where by a
decision of that court, which to say
the least, smacked SO loudly Of par
tisanism rather than legality, that
every citizen of the state blush d at
it's absurdity.
The following year he again made
the a C against great party odds
and was only defeated by a small
majority made up out Of an importa-
ton of illegal voters from Nebraska.
There are still other reasons Of
more Importance than the above.
Judge MCGEE is regarded by all
parties as thoroughly honest. He
has never been connected with any
of the schemes to plumber the tax
payers, and if elected no one would
be afraid to have a case tried before
him for the reason that some other
mans attorney had strings on the
Judge.
Another reason I wish to mention,
that not another man in the circuit
can harmonic the party forces as
well as he, and the fight now being
waged tends only to divide the party
Of silver men in this circuit. This
can be avoided by his nomination..
1 do not believe that this office
should be obtained by schemlng
and no man should be allowed tc
sacrifice the interests Of the party
and people for personal ambitton
To my mind this slate making
throughout the county other ,har
publically should be stopped.
Let the people act freely and spne
level headed men to tn, conNe ton
unpledged, and let them use lnrt1
Judgment in selecting the nomiare
There is too much artificial senti
ment being produced throug gu
this county.

THE UNFAIR practice prevalent at the present day
Of using or attempting to use the church as factor
in business is extremely reprehensible. Only few
days ago Richmond furniture house had an adver-
tsement that read: " Mr.. - Of the Rev. Mr..
49,, is with us and will be pleased to see his many
friends 1t will be admitted that the tenor of this
paragraph was not to point out special superb
orty of their goods, but to do business the fact
that they had minister's in their employ
Another and more serious aspect of the case is the
minister using his influence to get positions for
church members and their friends. Ofcourse there is
nothing wrong in clergyman using his good Offices
in behalf of man, but how about the person who
is thrown out of place thereby In these days of
business depression it is nundoubted fact that when
one man gets job another loses it. short time

asked how about the who discharged to
make room for him he had nothing to say.

 James Rowland of this village states that for % years his wife has been suf ferer from rheumatism. A few nights ago she was in such pain that she was nearly crazy. She sent Mir Rowland for the doctor, but he had read of Chamber lain's pain balm and instead of going for the physician he went to the store and secured bottle of it. His wife did not approve of MT Rowland's purchase st first, but nevertheless applied the balm thoroughly and in an hours time was able to go to sleep. She now applies it whenever she feels an ache or pain and finds that it always gives relief. He says that no medicine which she had used ever did her as much good.-[ [Fairhaven, N.
