aud even now are ready for the treat

and even now are ready for the treat
ment of patients. Mitchell will be
made the headquarters for the state
and the cure will undoubtedly attract
a great many people to the city who
are addicted to the use of alcohol, NOR
phine or tobacco. The names of the
gentlemen connected with the company
are sufficient guarantee that the cure
can be relied upon as being one in
which dependence can be placed with
the utmost confidence.
A few days ago Or. Disbrow under
took the cure of lady who WAS using
morphine in large quantities, taking so
grains day. After using the remedy
five days she freely acknowledged her
utter adherence OF the drug and that
she had no more desire for it than if
she had never tasted it. 1t was cure
that even astonished the DR.. himself,
thinking at the time he took the case
there was little hope of effecting a
cure.
The managers of the South Dakota
branch are thoroughly impressed with
the success of the remedy, having seen
for themselves just what 1t will do in
the worst cases, and they ubtedly
will meet with gv,at SUCCESS as soon as
they get the remedy thoroughly adver-
tised throughout the state.

he should 30 far forget himself as to try
to use this great office to further his
own personal inclinations. His theory
is about rs tenable as it would have
been during the time of the rebellion
for Gov. Kirkwood, of Iowa, to have
refused President Lincoln the control
of the Iowa troops to help free the
negro, or to send them to the west to
put down the Indian uprising, or the
theory that they enlisted only to put
down secession" Yet Gov. Kirkwood
never once interposed any such object
ion, and the memory OF that dear, old
war governor" will be cherished in
the bosom OF our Iowa boys as long as
they live.
A. E. Hitchcock: The sentiments
expressed by Governor Lee, az whole.
are sound and patriotic and represent
the highest Christian thought of the
nation. Much of the adverse criticism
1 hear and read raises an issue not sug-
gested by this letter. Until congress
establishes policy toward these
islands, the operations of the army and
navy should be wholly defensive in
protecting Manila, which is the only
city placed in our charge at the close of
the war. This duty can be performed
by the regular army. The Spanish
war having finally closed by the treaty
of peace, the South Dakota regiment il
entitled by law and fairness to be i'm
mediately mustered out, and if any of
the volunteers desire to remain and
fight for old glory" in subjugating
these half savage people, an immediate
subjugation meaning nothing else than
determination, they can re-enlist and
not return.
J. M. Adams: The sentiments ex-
pressed in Gov. Lees letter referred to
are my sentiments-bring our brave
boys home. appreciate the valor of
of our young men and after s years
service with the End D. N. G.. know
whereof I speak. They are too noble q

loving people like the Filipinos, who
received us with open arms last May.
Turn back the pages of history one
year, and see if we are not trying to
deprive them Of what one bright states
man advocated was the birthright of
the Cubans and why not the birth
right of the Filipinos-liberty.
Geo. A. Johnston: The letter from
Gov. Lee to the president is certainly q
very extraordinary document. I be.
lieve he very much underestimates the
courage and patriotism of the brave
boys comprising the South Dakot,
volunteers. His letter in effect asks
the president to Internationally sur
render to the Filipinos and leave Il
their mercy the people and property o.
those islands, that we are not only
morally but legally bound to protect

break, and feel confident he will not b.

otic people of South Dakota.

JAMES LESLIE DEAD.
He Died at the Home of His Son in Min
neapolis Wednesday Morning

He Died .t the Home of His Son in Min
neapolis Wednesday Morning.
When Mr.. and Mrs. James Leslie
left Mitchell several weeks ago to make
their home in Minneapolis with their
son it was with the hope, though faint,
that Mr.. Leslie would be benefited by
the change, but it proved to the con-
trary. The Minneapolis journal of
Thursday announced the death of Mr..
Leslie as having occurred the day
previous at the home of his son. Mr..
Leslie has been in feeble health for
several years, his physical condition
being very poor, and it was but five or
six months ago that he reluctantly
gave up his business, unable to give it
his attention. For several weeks be-
fore leaving for Minneapolis he was
able to sit up and be around the house,
able to talk and showed some degree OF
improvement.
The deceased gentleman moved to
Mitchell along in the spring of 1879
and located with his family on farm
in Perry township. In the fall of that
year he came to Mitchell and followed
his trade as cobbler for some years,
later adding to it the grain and feed
business. His family moved to town q
few years later and five OF the children
died in succession Of diphtheria about
eight years ago. MIR. Leslie was a
member of the Methodist church OF
this city and was devout Christian
gentleman, being closely associated a
few years ago with the Y. M. G. A
His age could not be ascertained but it
is thought he was about IS years. 1t
is not known as to whether his body
will be brought here for interment.

COMPLETED THE ORGANIZATION.

Mitchell Citizens Interest Themselves in
Establishing tho Disbrow Cure.
The Northwestern Disbrow Cure Co.,
is the title OF the organization which q
number of the prominent citizens OF
Mitchell are interested and which was
completed Monday. There are about
eighteen stockholders and they elected
the following officers:
President-W. l. Graham.
Vice-president-I. w. Seaman.
Secretary-S. b. Scallin.
Treasurer-J. T. Morrow
The directors include the above
officers and H. G. Clark.
Some four weeke ago DR.. A, Disbrow
came here from Chicago and interested
several gentlemen in his cure for alco-
holic, morphine and tobacco habit with
the idea of organizing company to
handle the remedy in this state. The
DR.. was we'll fortified with recommend
ations and references and al once set
about to demonstrate that his remedy
would accomplish everything he
claimed for it. A correspondence with
the eastern references gave the DR.. the
highest of recommendations and that
his cure was truly wonderful in its
effectiveness. The Or. TOOK several
gentlemen under his care on his arrival
here and in weeks time after using
his remedy they said that the cure
had the effect OF removing all desire
for alcoholic stimulants, and that they
stood relatively in the same position as
before they first tasted liquor. The
gentlemen having pretty well salts
fed themselves that the cure was al
and even more than was claimed for it
the stock was soon sold and they pur
chased the state right for the exclusive
use of the cure. A thirty day option

states of Iowa, Minnesota, Nebrask,

Marvellous accounts are given by me-
diaeval authors of perpetually burning
Lamps found in ancient tombs.
When the tomb of Pals, son of Evand-
or, who is mentioned by Virgil, was dis
covered, about the twelfth century, by Il
countryman digging near Rome, it is
said that a lamp was still burning over
his head, which must have been lighted
more than 1000 years before.
Baptsta Porta, in his treatise on natu-
raj magic, relates that about 1850 a
marble sepucher of the Roman period
was discovered in an island near Naples.
On opening the room wns found vial
containing burning lamp. The lamp
became extinct on breaking the vial and
exposing the lamp to the open air. 1t
was supposed that it had been concealed
before the Christian era, and those who
saw it reported that the lamp emitted q
splendid fame.
In 1850 n remarkable lamp was found
near Atestes, Padau, by n rustic, who
unenrthcd terra Gotta urn containing
another urn in which was n lamp placed
between two cylindrical vessels, one Of
gold and the other of silver. Each was
full Of a very pure liquid by whose virtue
tho lamp had been kept shining upward
of 1900 years.
This curious lamp was not meant to
scare away evil spirits from tomb, but
was an attempt to perpetuate the pro-
found knowledge Of Maxmus Olybius,
who effected this wonder by his skill in
the chemical art.
