A MT. PLEASANT SENSATION.
Considerable Interest in .. Case
Growing Out of Shooting Affray.


Mount Pleasant, March 2.-There is
considerable interest here in the case
now on trial of William Flamm against
Samuel Lee for $4,000 damages. The
suit GROWS out of the mysterious
shooting of Miss Jennie Lee, daughter
of the defendant. and the arrest of
Flamm as the alleged perpetrator of
the crime. William Flamm was suit
or for the hand Of Miss Jennie Lee, the
daughter of Samuel Lee. of New Lon
don. Flamm declares that they We're
engaged to be married and that on the
strength eff that understanding he UNI
dertook the preparation of a home for
his bride. Miss Lee. however, insisted
that she did not understand any such
thing and when Flamm pressed his
suit refused to marry him. One even
ing last October while Miss Lee was
sitting in a room in her fathers house
some one on the outside fired revolv-
er thru the window at the young wom-
an. A slight wound was made. The
assassin escaped. Suspicion was al

seems to Possesn Remark able Merit.

Tho New Discovery For Cntarrh
Seems to Possess Remark able Merit.
A new catarrh cure has recently APP
peared which SO far as tested has been
remarkably successful in curing all
forms of catarrh, whether in the head,
throat. bronchial tubes or in stomach
and liver.
The remedy is in tablet form, pleas
ant and convenient to take, and no spe
cial secrecy is maintained as to what 1t
contains, the tablets being II scientific
combination of guaiacol, eucalyptol,
sanguinaria, hydrastin and similar val
liable and harmless antiseptics.
This safe and effective catarrh cure
may be found at any drug store under
the name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Whether the catarrh is located in the
nose, throat, bronchial tubes or stom-
ach, the tablets seem to act with equal
success, removing the stutfy feeling in
head and nose, clearing the mucous
membrane of throat and trachea from
catarrhal secretons. which cause the
tickling, coughing, hawking and gag
ging so annoying to every catarrh suf-
ferer.
Nasal catarrh generally leads to ul-
tent as to destroy he nose entirely
and in many old cases of catarrh the
bones of the head become diseased,
Nasal catarrh gradually extends to the
throat and bronchial tubes and very
often to the stomach. causing that very
obstinate trouble, catarrh of the stom-
ach.
Catarrh is a systemic poison, inner
ent in the blood, and local washes
douches, salves, nhalers and sprays
can have no effect on the real cause OF
the disease An Internal remedy which
acts upon the blood is the only ratona
treatment and Stuart's Catarrh TAB
lets is the safest of all Internal rem
edies as well as the most convenien
and satisfactory from a medical stand
point.

he had successfully used stuart.

Lee, the father of the young lady.
When the case was called for trial,
however. there was no evidence con-
Meeting Flamm with the shooting and
he was discharged. The identity of the
person who fired the shot is still mys-

Flamm began suit against Mr.. Lee for
$4,000 damages on account of his false
arrest. A similar suit was also begun
against Edgar Peterson. a brother-in-
law of Miss Lee, who is also charged
with being instrumental in the arrest
OF Flamm.

Device to Locate Sounds.

In heavy and foggy weather 1t is
very difficult for the captains and
pilots of ships to ascertain the direc-

which the sounds emanate. Journaled

tie extends to point level or above
the animals head. The invention also
includes an arrangement for taking up
the slack in the rope, without in any
way pulling on the halter sufh-
ciently to annoy the animal.
The rope is passed through the
front Of the manger, resting on
pulley, which may be adjusted
to any desired height. and small
weight is attached to the outer end,
which is sufficient to hold the rope
taut, no matter in what position the
animal puts his head. A p.-tent on the
device has been granted to William

Cloud Turrets and Thunder-Storms.

A scientific explanation of the con-
nection between imposing masses Of
cumulus clouds, piled up in aspiring
white turrets, which are popularity
called thunder heads" and the ap-
proach OF thunder storm is offered in
a recent report on cloud studies at the
Blue Hill observatory. 1t appears
that the form of cloud called turreted
cumulus is most common when there
is a rapid vertical decrease of tenn
perature in the upper air, combined
with heating at the ground, which IA
vors the ascent of columns of air to
great heights, and this is, at the same
time. a condition favorable to thunder

Gss-Pipe Lines to Distribute Power.
The attention of electrical engineers
has been attracted to the prospective
use OF the gas engine on vast scale
for the generation and transmission OF
power. Mr.. George Westinghouse be-
lieves that great saving of expense
as compared with present methods
would result from the distribution Of
gas generated at central points and
conveyed in pipes along the lines Of
railways for the operation Of gas en-
gines and electric generators. He
suggests the installation of such a sys-
TEN in connection with the electrical
equipment of railways. especially met

also the use of fuel gas and gas engines

FAVORABLE CATTLE REPORTS.

Comparatively No Winter. Losses to
,-ra, Ranchmen in the Northwest. !.
!, Decidedly encouraging reports continue
to be received from the n great cattle
ranges in 1.-The western part Of South
Dakota. There. have been comparatively
no losses of cattle during the, winter.
This is remarkable ip view OF, the fact
that on the upper White river alone more
than 1000 young Southern cattle were
last fall turned loose on the range. On
other portions Of the range many thou
sands of these animals have been rust
ling for themselves all winter. Ii, there
had been any losses at all they would
have been among the Southern born cat
tie. which, Of course, would not have
been able to withstand the change as well
as native cattle had the winter been a
severe one, The fact that thNe have
been no losses from storms and that cat
tie are at present in much better cond-
ton than is usual ct this time Of the
year will make the coming season one of
the most profitable ever enjoyed by the
cattlemen Of South Dakota.
