MILBANK, S. D., If. Feb 24.-The
most serious fire from a financial
standpoint that has occurred in Mil
bank since 1884, and the only one which
has caused a loss Of life,visited the city
last night. Seven business buildings
were burned to the ground. Andrew
Veig, a man who was blocked here
with a carload Of stock was lodging
over Miss Malish's bakery, the build
ing where the fire originated, and was
caught in the flames and burned to
death. The corpse, or rather the trunk,
was recovered this afternoon The fire
was caused by a defective f1ue in the
Malish bakery, and when Miss Malish
and her mother, who reside over the
building, were awakened by smoke en-
tering their bed room the fire was so
bad that they barely escaped with
their lives. They called to Veig twice
and he answered them, but it is
thought he lost his way in the smoke.

success. 1t cures every form of piles
and cures them to stay cured. 1t 10

cause II has taken the place of surgical
operations, once considered the onlv
sure cure.
People often wonder that so simDie

Known to be. Yet the greatest remedies

the simplest, and the fact that it does
cure is all the sufferer from piles wants
to know.

cases reported each time.
From Geo. G. Check, Owens Mill Mo. :.
Some time ago. bought a package OF

had suffered very much. The first trial
did her more good than anything she
had ever tried. 1t is just as repre-
scented.
From Richard Loan, Whipple. Ohio. :.
i have used the Pyramid and am en-
tirely pleased and satisfied with re-
suits. 1t does the work and no mis-
take.
Mr.. w. r. Hines, Of Magnolia. Ark.

W0MAN'S
GREATEST
ENEMY.

Laura McHenry, in the Ladies
Home Journal, says:
The headache par excellence
or rather ad Hbttum among
women is the "sick headache"
and by that I find is meant a
headache which is attended in
any stage of it's action by
nausea, which increases until
vomiting ensues, when the pa
tents skin becomes naturally
moist again.
And yet every woman can
lessen the number and frequency
OF her headaches by assisting
nature by natural means. The
Carlsbad Sprudel Salt, which is
evaporated from the natural
waters of Carlsbad, taken early
in the morning before breakfast,
and if necessary at bedtime
(about half a teaspoonful dis
solved in a II nblerful Of water),
will supply these means.
IS an Alternative and elimina-
tive remedy, which dissolves ten
acious bile, allays irritation, and
removes distractions by aiding
nature, and not by sudden and
excessive irritation, as most ca
thartics do. 1T is of great benefit
in temporary and habitual con-
stipation, liver and kidney dis
eases, chronic catarrh of the
stomach and bowels, rheumatism
and govt, ETC., and should be
used early in the morning before
breakfast, specially during the
spring and summer months.
Care must be exercised to obtain
the genuine article, which is i'm
ported in round bottles and has

CUT SOME, RAISE OTHERS.
EquaIi=a ton of Salaries Agreed
Upon.

The council committee on salaries held an
executive session after the council meeting
yesterday afternoon and debated long and
earnestly over the prospective cuts and
raises in the salaries Of different city officials
and employees. Aid. Kiichli was in favor OF a.
sweeping reduction in the salaries of officials
who receive over $1C00 and informed the other
members of the committee that he would not
under any circumstances agree to compro-
mise He did not believe in cutting some
salaries ard leaving o hers undiStUrbad which
would look too much like partiaIity. If there
was to be reduction It should be felt by ali;
otherwise, no ones salary should be touched
AS to raising salaries, he wouldn't hear of it.
believe said he, that the officials
should be cut In proportioni to the amount
that they are receiving for their services
the high-priced one should suffer the largest
reduction; and the low salaried officials should
be cut the least. l would recommend that
officials getting between 81 600 and 81 500
should have their salaries reduced per cent:
those receiving between $1,000 and $1,000, 10
per cent, and those getting $4,000 or above, Is
per cent"
This proposition did not meet the approval
Of the other members of the committee Aid
Lloyd, Schwartz. Phillips and Currler. They
ridiculed Aid. Kiichli's motion. and voted it
down emphatically, much to the disgust of
the latter.
The four aldermen having decided to ad-
just the salaries as they saw fit without con-
sulting Aid. Kiichli, the list was gone through
with and the salaries touched up or down, as
thought best.
ms ulOSI important changes In salaries
which will be recommended at the next meet
Ing Of the council, is as follows:
Superintendent of Police Smith, present sal
airy, $1,000, cut $500; City Attorney Healey.

itor, small raise; scrub woman at central sta
ton, small raise.
Secretary Forbes Is at present drawing two
salartes-$1 100 as police clerk and $500 "a
secretary. It was shown that his duties were
not particularly heavy, exacting or burden
some in either position, and there was even
disposition to subject his joint salary to a
heavier reduction than that recommended

HALE PULLS OUT,
Champion Distanced i'm the Chicago
Sfx-Day Race.

CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-At 9 o'clock tonight
Schinneer, the Chicago rider, was still lead
ing in the six-day bicycle race at Tattersalls
with zoos miles to his credit. Teddy Hale
was hopelessly out of the race being almost
400 miles behind the leader. lief, the legiess
rider, continues his remarkable feat, having
made 402 miles since the start.
Hale. the wc~,d's champion, quit the track
at 1920 o'cloe:. tonight with SIT miles to
his credit. When Hale quit the track It
was the fourth or fifth time he had declared
that he would ride no more. After he had
gone there were rumors that he had been
doped. Hale himself made no such claim,
merely saying that he had been taken iii
suddenly and 1t was strange that he should
have had no warning of the impending ill
ness. He asked his trainer if he thought
It possible that his food could have been
doped, but neither Hale nor his trainer would
make the assertion. 1t is believed generally
that Hale's poor showing is due to poor con-
dition.
The score at midnight Of the nine leading
contestants was as follows ch'nneer, l. O5011
miles; Miller, 1882: Ashnger, 941; Lawson,
932; Stewart, 1896: Bradis, S54; Hansen, 1873

Crow Wing is estimated at 21O. 600

CrOW wing is estimated at ZIG, 600.
Another class Of lands that are briefly
touched upon are those that belong to the
state and state institutions. If the practice
OF individuals in sweeping off all marketable
timber to get immediate returns during their
own life time, and then abandoning the lands
seems unWise, what may be said of the state
and the state institutions, whose lives do not
cease II they with especial need of a perma-
nent and increasing income convert their
growing endowment of forest stock imperfect
ly into money and place that money into
banks that pay little or no interest, when by
keeping growing stock of timber they might
perpetuate their income? The state has or
will have, when the surveys are completed
3127, COO acres in the forest regions of this
state. This is equal to the area of the
eight counties of Dakota, Freeborn, Goodhue
Houston, Olmsted, Steele, Wabasha and
Washington, or about the area of the state
of Connecticut. If it were properly managed
it would be made to yield large annual in
come from the natural increase.
The taxpayers Of the state directly and
deeply concerned in these endowments, for it
is important that the state realizes as much
as possible from these that much direct
taxation as possible may be avoided.
The bulletin also discusses some of the
principles which should be applied to the
original timber land in Minnesota. 1t puts
special emphasis On protection from fire, and
says that without this protection there is no
use of attempting anything else. In order to
get the land reseeded it is important while
cutting the natural timber that nature should
be encouraged by leaving the young stock
on the land n favorable condition for grow
ing and to leave some seed producing trees
1t is impossible for fire to run over any for
est land without doing great damage. This
damage is difficult to estimate, but 1t is plain
that whatever land is kept non-productive is
at least being kept from yielding 500 feet
board measure, for each acre, per year, which
is considered the normal amount of increase
on well stocked timber land. The greatest
aggregate damage is probably done by light
fires. that repeatedly run over the land and
prevent a new growth. The planting of trees
is expensive. and it is quite impractlcable
with a large proportion Of the area of the
forest lands N this state, and the result will

fourteen large half-tone illustrations, and is
supplemented by quotations from a large
number of prominent lumber men.

Mr., Kelly, and said that he was ready to
