VIII 1t soon wear away? Oh! No!
How many thousands of unfortunate
sufferers have gone down to an untime-
ly grave because they needed not the
warnings. A weak heart never cures
itself. Because of it's feeble action, cir
culation Is impaired, the digestive or
gans are deranged, the liver and kid
neys fail to cleanse the impurities from
the blood. Disease and decay affect
the whole body, but DR.. Miles New
Heart Cure will put things to rights. It
stimulates digestion and assimilation,
while it assists the liver and kidneys in
their work of purifying the blood. 1t
gives new strength to the heart and
builds up the wasted tissues.
Mrs. Alice Clark, Elkhart, Ind, re-
Iates her experience in the following
words: About two years ago I began
to have occasional fainting spells, which
gradually became more frequent and
more severe. After each spell would
be very weak and nervous, and my
heart exhibited signs of functional dis
order. My physician was unable to re-
lieve me, my trouble developed into ner-

Course for 25 Miles.

sheboygan, Wis, Nov. 5.-A number
of men who broke the Wisconsin fish
laws the last few days have evaded the
Wisconsin fish warden and escaped into
Illinois waters. Today the tug Hoff-
nung Bros. of this port returned from
an exciting chase up the lake after the
law brakers.
Thursday the fish warden at Port
Washington % miles south of here, re-
ported to Fish Warden GundersOn Of
Sheboygan number of men were fish
ing off Port Washington, which is con-
trary to Wisconsin fish laws at this Pc
Rod.
Arrangements were quickly made by
Fish Warden Gunderson, and, accom-
panied by Sheboygan and Port Wash
ihgtOn fishermen, he boarded the Hoff-
nung Bros. and went in pursuit of the
offending fishermen.
When they came in sight of the fish
ermen's boat, said to be the Hannah
Sullivan, the offenders shifted trouble
and quickly sped away southwark, and
after them went the Honnung at full
speed.
A long, hot chase followed, but the
Hoffnung was unable to overtake the
Sullivan, and she safely sped into Him

Will Be Compelled to Support His
Poor Old Mother.

Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 5.-The first
conviction in the state under the new
law compelling children to care for
aged and INDECENT parents was accomp-
lished in this city today. Brent Nc
Coy, a college graduate, was convicted

and of laughing in her face when she
was put out of a boarding house for the
nonpayment of board. The McCoys
were formerly wealthy people in this
city.

relative, and was released under bond
of 1000 and a suspension of sentence.
The moment he fails to make the prop
er arrangements for his mothers well
being he will be sent to the work house.

ssMANOEUVREs OF JANE"
Jones' New Play Scores a Hit at
Haymarket, London.

london, Nov. 5.-Henry Arthur Jones'
new comedy, 1.-The Manoeuvres Of
Jane,' was produced last night at the
Haymarket theater with great success.
The house was crowded with a fashion
able audience, which laughed and ap-
plauded the witticisms Of the play and
the clever acting. In some respects
1.-THE Manoeuvres of Jane" resembles
1.-THE Liars but it has no blot of the
sex problem on its escutcheon. It is a
pure, comm on-sense comedy, with many
drou situations Of modern society life.
The English idea of a strict chaperon-
age over young girls furnishes the
theme for the play.
The first two acts are laid at Lord
Bapchid's country residence, CLANCY
Court. The third act is at the seaside,
while the last returns to CLANCY Court
Cyril Maude as Lord Bapchild and
Fredick Harrison as Jervis Pushon, his
uncle, carried the leading roles finely
while the unfortunate manoeuvring

chaperonage, was played by Winifred
Emery with great success, amid the
surrounding Of many doWager aunts

play" said Mr.. Harrison. II think it
Mr.. Jones' cleverest piece, and it is
sure to be a great go, both in England
and America" Mr.. Charles Frohman

NAPOLEON SOLDIER DEAD.
Joseph Hebert Passes Away at the
Home of His Daughter.

Chicago, Nov. 5.-Joseph Hebert, once
a drummer boy in Napoleon's army, died
at the home of his daughter, Mrs. e. Che
nier. $40 West Congress street, at the age
of 1O1 years. Death was the result Of
severe cold which the old man contracted
about week ago. Mr.. Hebert was born

He was with the general during the four
years in which he engaged in war and
often in latter years gathered visitors
about him to whom he could recount his
trials and adventures during campaign life
under Napoleon. After NapOleon's final
defeat at Waterloo, Mr.. Hebert returned
to Canada and engaged in farming upon
his fathers large estate and it is to the
rugged life he led during his years as a
farmer that he attributed his ripe old age

WOMEN NAY WIN.
Hopeful of Victory in South Dakota's
Suffrage Fight.

RrookIngs, s. D., Nov. 5.-South Da-
kota's campaign for woman suffrage
Is drawing near its close in manner
that is entirely satisfactory to its pro-
motors. This campaign has been most
vigorous, but quiet. It is believed that
its effects will be more far-reach1ng and
stable than those of the effort that was
made eight years ago to swing the state
into line on the same issue
In the campaign of 1890 the tom-tom
method of agitation was largely used
There were flags waving and prasS
hands and torches. This time the Wo-
men have put their energy into taxing
quietly to the men and women OF me
state, and hope is running hlgh III tie
bosoms of the suffragists. Especially
era tifving has been the universal cour-
tesy that has been paid the women ora
tors by the men. Then, too, the women
have worked hard during the last eight
years, and have won numerous FRIENDS.
Another marked difference between
the two campaigns is this: In 1880 no
politician who was opposed to woman sui
frage hesitated to say so. This year no
T,oIitician is openly opposing the move
ment.
The distinctly new feature Of this
years work is the introducing Of New
York's anti-suffrage women into this
state It seem almost incredible that
the women of commonwealth so far
removed from South Dakota should
come out here and spend money and
time in trying to defeat the women here
In their effort to induce their brethren
to give them the ballot. This invasion
by New York women has served to help
the suffrage work wonderfully. 1t has
caused South Dakota women to rise in
indignation, and has aroused even the
most lukewarm.
Thes women of South Dakota have a
peculiar hold on the affections of their
brothers. Men and women were pio-
neers together, and together builded up
the commonwealth. The New Workers
have only succeeded in creating increas-

agony from ptomaine poisoning. There
was no time to take them to the division
hospital. Our surgeons had no tents IN
which to take care of them and the men
were laid on the bare ground protected
by scant shade afforded by few pine
trees, the thermometer registering 50
degrees. About 2 p m rain storm

scant quarters for the protection Of the
sick men and if it had not been for
this outside aid the condition OF the
men would have been intolerable.
1.-THE soldiers on the Santiago cam
paign were not the only ones who had
reason to complain of insufficient ra-
lions. When we were ordered to leave
Camp Alger our colonel as well as our
division commander protested against
leaving on so short a notice for the
reason that we had no transportation
for food supplies. This protest went not
only to Major General Graham who was
in command of the corps but to the war
department at Washington and the or
der came back march at six o'clock
We started without knowing when
wagons could be had to haul our sup
plies. A detail was left behind to bring
them as soon as possible. At noon the
men had nothing to eat but a few hard
tack. At night they had nothing what
ever. Before morning our wagons had
arrived bringing rations for one day.
We stayed in camp one day and on the
next started on the march to Bull Run.
We went into camp about 10 a. m. ana
at once sent our wagons to the railway
station where we were informed sup
plies sent from Washington would be
waiting None was there and the men
had no dinner. None came in the after
noon and there was nothing for sup
per. 1t was not until noon of the day
following that we received any COM
missary supplies. During that night
considerable fora ging was done. AS
soon as the war department heard OF
the foraging an fnquisition was COM
menced and a great deal of energy was
shown in prosecuting the men who had
done the fOraging. These men were
treated as criminals simply because they
gratified their hunger after going sc
hours without rations. No Kansas SOL
dfers were apprehended but others were
sent to a military prison.

who raise their hands in horror when
the government is criticised FORTS treat
ment of the soldiers. The private SOL
der has good cause for complaint"
