HURON, S. D., Jan. ia heavy
snow storm has been in progress since
noon. Four inches of snow were added
to the three feet that had already
covered the Jim river valley, and fears
are entertained that railroads will be
again blockaded. Efforts to open the
Great Northern railway between Wa
tertown and this city have been aban-
doned. The rotary snow pillow, after
getting as far as Willow Lakes turned
back and was sent to raise the block
ade on the Aberdeen line, and nothing
will be done toward opening the Huron
line until the other is clear Of snow.
No trains have been operated on the
Great Northern between Benson, Mimi,
and Huron for two weeks.

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass
with urine and let it stand twentv-four
hours; sediment or settling indicates a
diseased condition of the kidneys. When
urine stains linen it is positive evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire
to urinate or pain in the back is also
convincing proof that the kidneys and
bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge so
often expressed that DR.. Gi!mers Swamp
Root, the great liver remedy fulfills ev-
cry wish in relieving pain in the back,
kidneys, liver, bladder and every part of
the urinary passages. 1t corrects inabil-
ity t" hold urine and scalding pain in
passing it, or bad effects following the
use of liquor, wine or beer, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during
the night to urinate. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its wonderful cures of the most distress
ing cases. If you need medicine you
should have the best. Sold by drug
gists; price fifty cents and one dollar per
bottle. For sample bottle and pam

"A U0OrS1a Belle rays her wager IN
Kisses.
From the Dublin Dispatch.
An amusing bet was made last week
on the great prize fight by young man
and young lady in Dublin. The terms
of the bet were as follows: If Fitzsim-
mons won the young lady was to kiss
the young man; and if Corbett won the
young man was to kiss the colored cook
at the home of the young lady. The Q
was great ex element on the day of Il e
fight. The young man could see himself
in his Imagination engaged in osculatory
exercise with the black cook, whose face
was unusually black and greasy by con-
tact with the kitchen pots. The proba-
bility of having to pay his bet almost
shattered his nerves. But FitzsimmOns
won out in the fourteenth round, and
there was not a happier individual in
Georgia than our betting friend. We
learn that the young lady adhered to
her part of the contract and paid the
bet.

CEORGlA'S PENSIONERS.

The widows of veterans in Georgia
get $240,000, disabled veterans $3.50, 200
and there is an appropriation OF $780,
900 for INDECENT veterans. The apprO-
priatiOn seems to be sufficient in the
two first classes mentioned, but the ap
preparation for the third class is said to
be wholly inadequate. When the APP
preparation was made it was estimated
that there were IN the state about
$500 veterans who, on account of old
age or disease, ought to be assisted by
the state. 1t was decided to allow such
veterans $50 each per annum.
The applications of 1000 have been
granted and there are 1000 more on
file. The number is certain to increase
as the veterans grow older. AS only
$500 can have pensions under the
present appropriation, and as 1000
have been granted pensions, the selec-
tion of 500 from 1000 applicants is a
serious problem. The applicants are
SOdOUClCu UIII Ou ilOuU UlIC oUdUCs 1lOW
are 800 Of the most deserving to be Sc
lected from the 1000, and may there
not be among the 1000 many who are
much more deserving than some of the
1000 who have been given pensions?
That's the question. 1t is said that
the pension roll in Georgia would be
nearly $86O,000 now if pensions were
granted to all whose applications have
been filed. And yet the amount given
each INDECENT pensioner and each wild
ow of veteran is very small-only $50
a year.
