COW QUESTION is SETTLED
Citizens Voted to Have Stock Herded
Through the Day and Closed
Up at Night.

At special meeting Saturday night
called by the Town Board, about Is
citizens were in attendance, and the
question of herding the stock was ar
gued pro and con. The speeches by
the different citizens were all on the
same strain, and when vote was
called for by the chairman to have
COWS herded through the day and
closed up nights, the vote was carried
unanimously, and the Town Board
were instructed to pass an ordinance
to that effect, as being the wish Of the
citizens. Thus one of the greatest OF
evils which our town has had to con-
tend with was put down. Now let
our citizens beautify their places with
shade trees and plants and make ou1
town one of the prettiest places to be
found. No more sleepless nights and
COW chasing through the day as in the
past, to keep out of your gardens
stock with a reputation for opening
any gate and jumping a seven foot
fence. The ordinance will go in effect
in short time. Who can say Eagle
River is behind the times?

said, always more victims than love.
The treatment Of nightmare consists in
awakening the subject and, if there is
perturbation Of mind, giving some mildly
sedattve potion such as warm water
sweetened with syrup of lettuce Fol-
lowing this, care should be taken to re-
move the supposed cause to prevent
recurrence Of the nightmare. In the
case Of children intense moral impress

Nightmare is especially distinguished
from dreams by the sensation of depres-
sion and suffocation. It is, in fact.
true, temporary, miniature delirium.
Sometimes, long after awakening it
leaves the subject a prey to nervous
anxiety, violent palpita ton, and unusual
debility. In fact it has a marked alogy
with insanity and If it is constantly re-
curing it may be Of serious portent
pointing to some affection of the brain
or mind. Not that nightmare causes
nervous disease or insanity but that
nervous disease pre-existing causes on
the contrary this special disposition
OF the brain to temporary delirium.

Sometimes nightmare is due to pro

diet, or faulty position Of the body, such
as lying upon the back or face Some
times 1t is due to some mechanical In

swollen tonsils. West has reported a
case in which, in spite Of all hyglenic

Medical Notes.

The nightmare has nothing to do with
horses, although they occasionally have
it, the word mare really means, in this
connection, a specter According to the
Bavarian popular belief the nightmare
is woman who appears in the morning
asking to borrow something, and to keep
her away at night they promise her the
three white gifts il she will come for
them the next morning, and when she
does come, as she surely will, she is
given a handful of flour, a handful of
salt, and an egg. In Morocco it is Gus
tomary to place a dagger under the pill
low at night to ward off the nightmare,
and in Greece a blacE-handled knife is
supposed to have the same effect.
The ancient Germans believed that
nightmare was due to a demon, who,
during sleep, seated himself upon the
chest of the sleeper and oppressed his
breathing. IN the middle ages, when the
devil was supposed to interest himself in
all matters of. evil, people. talked. of in
cubus and Succubus demons who were
supposed to cause nightmare, and this
belief, owing to initiative exaltation
and nervous contagion, caused serious
disturbance in the religious as well as the
secular world. These dreams, which
were interpreted as actual experience
and not phantasmic visions, were fire.

nations, which Pliny had already spoken
Of. in his day, under the name of ''ludi-

tween the two was that the incubus was

succubus assumed the. form of woman,
both being of loose characters. ,l->.s.

MINNEAPOLIS.

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov Foreign grain
markets We're off this morning. follow
Ing our setback of yesterday. On this
the local wheat market opened in hest
tating mood. Chicago was lower and
nervous. Considerable selling pressure
was ielt, but the price held against it,
and very little long wheat was dislodged.
There was a strong undertone and firm
resistance in coarse grain futures. Corn
Wavered and then turned strong, helping
wheat
Primary receipts were 961, o30 bu. and
shipments 272,0G0 blu. against 665, 900 and
S22 eco last year. Wheat and flour clear-
arces equal 1,457 600 bu. Minneapolis re-
ceived- 316 cars, and Duluth 2l3, against
go and lbs last year.
The market was very strong towards
the end. Chicago wired that speculative
interest was increasing. In the local mar
ket more attention was given to May. and
that option was more active. December
closed at 711sc; May, at 731sQD7314c. Chi
cago closed December at 72a4@727sc.
Cash demand was as active, and the
market firm as ever, except for a slightly
easier tendency in the poorer low gfirades.
No. l northern was in sharp demand at
124c over December. Millers bought this
grade to arrive on a range of T21st072Iac
No 2 was unchanged as to general tone,
the car situation still ruling prices in this
grade Some lots sold to 1ac nuder De-
cember, but much of it went at a full cent
under. In this grade there was also an
active demand to arrive. No. 3 WHEAT
ranged from 671ac for the bulk. Very lit
tie rejected was seen. No grade sold
from Gle to 64c.
