DISCUSSED EVOLUTION.

The Social Science club held an in.
teresting meeting at the Saulpaugh last
evening. Prof. U. 0. Cox read most
interesting and ably prepared paper
upon "Organic Evolution" IN which
he traced the history of evolution as ii
has been placed before the public. He
showed that the process of evolution
had been discovered and was an estab-
shed fact before Darwin took it up.
Much has been attributed 10 Darwin,
he said, that that gentleman did not
put forth He simply told f what he
discovered and saw, and did not theor-
ize as to origin. Prof Ley'nberger OPP
ened the discussion. Among those pres
emit were w S. Hammond ST. James,
and DR.. H. A. Tomlinson, s.. Peter, both
of whom responded to invitations to ad-
dress the club DR. Tonlinson gave
quite an extended talk upon the sub
iect, taking up the featuH of heredity.
The next meeting vii be held on
Tuesday evening, Jan. A, when Rev.
S D. Works will read a paper on the
Evolution of Glasses, and Gen. E. M
Pope will lead the discussion.

RHEUMATIC MISERY

Dodd's Kidney Pills the Only Cure For 1t
They Are the Only Medicine That Re
moves the Cause of the Disease.

Duluth, Jan. 10 The climate of this
state is such that Rheumatism is very
common disease Almost every family
suffers from it's ravages. Young and
old are victims. Thousands of people
are crippled Tor life by it. A medicine
that Can cure Rheumatism is God

ments and oils are of no more value
than is cold water rubbed on the cheek
to cure tooth ache That Rheumatism
is due to diseased kidneys allowing poi
son to remain in the blood, instead of
filtering it out, has been abundantly
proved by the remarkable success of
Dodds Kiddey Pills, which act solely on
the kidneys, and which have cured
every case of Rheumatism for which
they have been nsed
A specimen case is that of Mr.. Pat
rick WEIGH of 404 Lake Avenue, this
city, he says:-I have for years been
tortured by Rheumatism and Heart
Disease My case was very severe, and
my sufferings very great. I tried sew
eral kinds of medicine but they did me

was induced to use Dodds Kidney Pills,

RAILROAD LOSES.
Supreme Court Sustains Nicholas
Heinzeman in his Action.

The supreme court yesterday rem
dered a decision in the case of Nicholas
Heinzeman VS., the Winona & st Peter
railway company. When the railroad
was put through, the company secured
a right of way three hundred feet
wide. Mr.. Heinzeman brought suit
to recover one hundred feet of this,
eighty rods long, basing his action on
the ground that the company has never
used more than one hundred feet of
the right of way. He was successful in
the district court, and the railroad ap-
pealed. How the supreme court sus-
tains the decision of the district court,
Pau & Pau are Mr.. Heinzeman's at
torneys, and Brown & Abbott, of Wi
mona, appeared for the railroad
company.
This decision may be the means of
de priving the railroad of more of its
right of way, as other farmers are
similarly situated as the plaintiff in this
action.

SOLDIERS In ARMS.
SaIyationists After Disturbers
of Their Meetings,
Capt. Simpson PrOcures Warrant for
the Arrest of Half Dozen Young
Men.

There was trouble at the Salvation
Army hall last night. For some time
members of the Army have been COM
Dlaining of the actions of certain Wis
itors who come there seemingly for no
other purpose than to taunt the soldiers
and raise disturbance, These people
have been cautioned to behave them
selves, but will not take the hint. Last
night there was repetition of this
scene, only on larger scale.
Today, Captain Geo. Simpson, who
has charge of the barracks, made COM
plant before County Attorney Hughes,
and procured warrant for the arrest
of David and Stephen Huntley, Benz.
Simmons. Oscar butcher, David Oglesby
and Lafayette Watson, on the charge OF
disturbing a religious meeting The war
rant was placediin the hands OF the Of
ficers this afternoon, 1t accuses the
parties named of having disturbed a
meeting of public worship in rude and
bOisterous manner, and using vile and
vulgar language.
Capt. Simpson stated to reporter to-
day that matters have come to such a
pass in the Salvation Army hall that
something must be done to suppress
the disturbers of the meetings. He
said that respectable people will be kept
from the services if lot of fellows who
are big and old enough to know better
are to be permitted to interfere with
their right to worship in their own way
He said that last night was not the first
time that these same parties have
created disturbances They had been
cautioned in civil manner and almost
appealed to to act like gentlemen, but
had continued last night to act in such
a manner that it was difficult if not USE
less to proceed with the meeting.
Several of the parties were locked up
this afternoon.

nal Injuries.

injured yesterday afternoon by being
run down on the Mulberry street hill

nicely today Tt was thought for a
while yesterday afternoon that the boy

At one time while the fracture of his
leg was being reduced. the boy appear

ed large quantity of blood, but he re-
covered subsequently,, and the blood is
thought to have come from the injury
to his head. :.s...9a
The Mulberry street hill is so smooth
that Charley did not hear the bobsled
coming until it was almost upon him
Then he turned around and was struck
upon the leg and thrown into the air,
coming down on the frozen surface on
his head, making large confusion
over his left eye. closing the optic en-,
tirely. The boy who was steering the
bobsled tried to turn out. but Charley
stepped the same way.
Miss Annie Jones, the teacher, is de-
serving of much credit, for she stated
with the boy through all of his suffer
ings, and did all that she could for him.
DR.. Frisbie reduced the fracture, but
was unwell today and could not go out
to the Hoatling home, and DR.. Davis
made the call, finding the boy doing
