The Act of Congress.

The particular regulation now COM
planned of and which is attacked in the
srgumen. of counsel for complainant is the
act OF Congress and not the act of the
Commissioners. II is true that the Com
mi$sioners have given notice TO the com
munity that the contingency has occurred
which Congress deemed necessary 10 put
its act in force; but what was to be re-
quired of the citizen in the event of that
contingency happening is definitely pro-
yided in the statute itself. The Supreme
Court has held that it is competent for
Congress to pass law which shall not be
operative in the event that a future con-
tingency shall occur such contingency to
be known by proclamation OF the Presi-
dent.

that the facts which we're 10 make IL the

law, have not been shown, but it is claim

CONFESSION.
Convicted and Executed Murderer Made
Confession Several Days Be-
fore Execution.

Joe Hurst, who was hanged at Glen
div Friday last, made a confession to
a Glendive minister several days be-
fore his death, but requested that it
be withheld until after he was dead,
for the reason he said that mis- attor-
neys might W his life at the last
moment" The confession is published
with the account of the hanging in a
Glendive paper, and is signed by the
minister to whom it was given. Hurst
confessed that he had followed Cav
anaugh through the alley on the night
of the 23d of December, and that after
talking in a friendly manner with Cav
anaugh, struck him with a heavy iron
bolt when his back was turned. Cav
anaugh fell, uttering two slight cries.
Hurst turned and saw a woman some
distance away and struck at Cavan-
augh again while looking at her and
missed him, breaking the bolt on the
ground. He then stuck him sew
eral more times and fled. When asked
why he would not make this confess
sion to the officers of the law Hurst
said: Damn them, they have thirsted
for my blood and l won't give them
the satisfaction"
Hurst's body was taken through on
No. , Saturday night. accompanied by
his father and wife. 1t will be buried
in Minnesota, where Hurst formerly
lived.

THE VILLAGE CROAKER.

Out on the restful dry goods box,
The village croaker stands,
No sweat e'er his peaceful brow,
Or labor grimes his hands,
But the muscles of his brawny jaw
Stand out like iron bands.
Day in, day out, from morn to night
You can hear his hammer clang,
AS he knocks the country, state and
town
With rattle and biff and bang,
And his voice is hoarse and over
worked,
His arm like mill sweeps hang.
At morning tide or at noon or night,
You can hear his bellows blow,
You can see him raise his tired arms,
And wave them to and fro,
And knock and knock and knock and
knock
With measured beat and slow.
He hammers everything in signt
Nor aught makes him rejoice,
Unless it be to listen to
The sound of his own voice,
And he knocks the entire neighbor-
hood,
With language hot and choice.
And on and on through all the years
His sad chin music flows,
At night he lays him down to sleep
In peace, for we'll he knows,
Somebody hammered, something
Has earned a nights repose.

DICKE1 ON PUERTO RICO.

Alfred Dickey Of Jamestown spent
IL days in Puerto Rico in February and
secured quite an accurate idea of con-
ditions existing here and of the peo-
pie. The hurricane that swept over
the island left devastation and de-
struction which it will take years to
efface and that, coming with change of
administration and ownership, has
brought about conditions which re-
quire good judgment to handle prop
erly. Mr.. Dickey believes the people
of the island in their disturbed con-
dition should be granted free trade
with this country for their former
markets have been cut off and they
are dependent upon Is. That their
condition is not worse is due to the
fact that they never felt so strongly
as Cuba the despotic hand of Spain.
They are a gentle, kindly, pleasant
people, more pleasant than the people
of Cuba who have been harassed by
Spain so many centuries. One planter
whose revenues were over 10000 a
year will not receive $1,000 this sea-
son, his plantation having been ruined
by the storm and it will require time
to again make it productive. Others
r in the same condition.
The Puerto Ricans range in color
from the blacklist Africans up through
the yellows to pure white; the better
class are white and fully as we'll edu-
Gated as the same class of Americans.
It was a profitable and interesting
trip and Mr.. Dickey has many inter-
esting "reminiscences and much infor-
nation to relate. The trip from New
York to the island occupied fivesdays,
six IN the return.

AN INTERRUPTED RHAPSODY.

Dreaming Of her liquid eyes,
Blue as heavens tinted azure,
Fleeced with light Of love that flies,
Hair like FURNISHED gold that glitters
Where the sunlight streams its rays,
Voice like robins, sweet, that twitters
Welcome to the waking days.
Foot like fairy's light that tinkles
Sweet through dew drenched dells
and bowers
Eye like the dew drop that wrinkles,
Natures tear shed DER the flowers.
Lips like bow of winsome Cupid,
Whence a winged arrow flies,
Lids like lily's petals, dropped
Ger the glory of her eyes.
Drifting, drifting down the river,
Dreaming, dreaming, idly, free,
Lulled by linnets lays that CULVER
Songs the whispering winds watt
me,
Lips like cherries, cheeks like roses
What the dickens makes this sag
In my boat? Well, Holy Moses!
If she hasn't struck a snag!

Questions
for
Women

If you were offered sure aid in time
OF trouble would you put it aside
and accept something of doubtful
efficiency?
If you saw before you q strong and
safe>bridge leading to your goal, would
you ignore it to try some insecure and
tottering structure?
The answer to these questions is
plain. You would, of course, choose
without hesitation what all evidence
showed to be the safe thing, and you
would risk nothing in useless expert
ments.
Why, then, do some m risk one
of their most precious possessions
their health-in trying medicines Of
unknown value, which may even prove
hurtful to them?
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound has stood the test of years. It
has the largest sale of any remedy for
female ills in the world, and nothing
could have given it this sale except its
own merit.
Do not try any experiments, but buy
what is known to be reliable. Mrs.
Pinkham's Compound can do all that
is claimed for it, and all statements in
regard to it can be easily verified.
Write to Mrs. Rinkham at Lynn, Mass,
for a little book she has just published
containing letters from the mayor of
Lynn, the postmaster and others.
Mrs. Pinkham's advice is offered free
of charge to all women who write to
her for aid. This invitation is con-
stantly renewed. A million women
have been cured of serious female ills by
Mrs. Pinkham's advice and medicine.

HURST IS HANGED.
Convicted Murderer Hanged at Glen
dive for Murder of cavanaugh
Friday Morning.
Protests His Innocence of the Gallows,
and Says He is Not the Murderer
Claimed.

Joseph Hurst was hanged at Glen
dive at 2:3O o'clock Friday morning for
the murder of Sheriff Cavanaugh at
Glendive in December, 1893.
Hurst made an address from the
scaffold protesting his innocence, and
stated he was not the man who muir
dered Cavanaugh.
The Hurst cast has been the most
Interesting in many way in the GRIM
inal annals of Montana. The crime for
which he was hanged was committed
on Christmas eve. The dead body of
Sheriff %Cavanaugh was found, beaten
and bruised, near a barn back of his
residence on the following day. Cir
cumstantial evidence convicted Hurst
OF the murder, although one witness
testified that he saw Hurst following
C~aVanaugh a little while before the
murder must have occurred. It trans
pred after the murder that Hurst had
made threats against Cavanaugh. The
Two men a been rivals for the nom
nation for sheriff. Hurst had been
heard to say, according to testimony.
that if Cavanaugh were elected he
would never live to take the office,
$1,000 . 11lulu Cl I1uiSL WAS
one of the principal candidates for the
appointment to fill the vacancy and
lacked only one vote of the board of
commissioners for the appointment.
There was a number of other cir
cumstances brought out in the trial
that looked bad for Hurst. After his
conviction an appeal was taken to the
supreme court, but that tribunal held
that the sufficiency of the evidence was
a matter for the jury and refused to
interfere with the finding of the lower
court. Final appeals were made to
Governor Smith, but he took the same
stand and destroyed the last hope of
a communication of sentence. n
Hurst was married and had a wife
and children. BY many he was we'll
liked, and there were many who could
not bring themselves to believe he had
committed so cowardly a crime. He
resided in Mandan for some time and
was well known in Bismarck. Cav
anaugh, the murdered man, had a
brother living in Stutsman county.
