Legislative.

The state legislature began work
at Pierre Tuesday in its sixty days
session. The senatorial question
was quickly disposed OF by II caucus
Of the republican members Monday,
at which Congressman Gamble re-
ceived the unanimous endorsement
for that distinguished honor. There
were other candidates, of course,
but Mr.. Gamble had such an over
whelming majority that all other
boons were quickly and good
naturally puncturel. This result
was expected and will be satisfactory
to the party and the people. Ssna-
tor Gamble will be an able, clean
representative for the common
wealth of'South Dakota. Senator
CANDLES election will follow in a
short time, Jan. ~
Both Senate and House members
caucused Monday on organization.
Everyt hing was harmonious at
these caucuses. and the selections
we're endorsed Tuesday when the
two houses convened. Hon. A.. G.
Somers. OF Grant. was again select
ed speaker OF the house, with
Reemer of Deadwood as chief clerk.
Deyine. of Faux. was made SER
geant, and Rev. Ellis OF FIT. Pierre,
chaplain OF the house. Speaker
Somers will be remembered az q
Hand County nan in theearly days.
Chaplain Ellis a recently located
at Rec Heights, and is also well
known to west Hand County people.
The applicants for positions were
numerous. There are lit republic
can members, and every member
nearly had friends who Ewanted po-
sitioDs, but hah of them had to fall
by the wayside. 1t is quite q dis
tinguished honor for Speaker Som
ers 10 receive such strong endorse
ment. He il q good pariiamen-
tartan, and manages the turbulent
House with credit to himself.
With the senatorial question so
quickly and harmoniously settled,
tho legislature can and doubtless
will get down to business right
away.
Among the matters OF interest to
this section is the talk OF rsorgan-
ization of judicial circuits. The
SHINE effort that failed last session
will again be made to form a circuit
of Miner. Kingsbury, Beadls. Spink
and Hand counties. with the Judge
at Huron. With Wilmartb, OF Hur-
on, RS chairman OF the judiciary
committee and a republican COVER
nor to appoint a Judge, 1t looks a.
if the movement may be successful
this time. The difference to Hand
County is perhaps not material,
although Huron is only 40 miles
while the present circuit headquar-
ters is at Pierre, so miles.

howled and jeeredin the most threat

hand Major House was engaging in
every Diversion which IA calcu-
lated to kill time and delay the at
tack. As the sun vas the noise and
confusion Of the Indian camp chang
ed to the mo rfotonous chant OF
the death song and the warriors
came out panoplied for the massa-
ere. Unable to secure the usual war
paints they had bedaubed their
bodies with a blush mud from the
lake shore and presented a hideous
aspect. To the Indian mind it was
to an execution of prisoners, and
not a battle, for from the moment
Major House came upon the camp
his force had virtually been prisoners.
sULLY COMMAND COMES UP.
Scarcely was the first shot fired
when General Sully and his com
mnnd appeared upon a hill top less
than a mile away, coming at the top
most speed. His approach was dis
covered by thu soldiers and the In
dams at the same instant and the
old men and squaws began to pull
down the lodges and in an incredibly
short time the camp was In full
retreat to the James river, q few
miles to the east. House managed
to cut into the east of them, while
Sully came up and struck them from
the west. They were caught in a
deep ravine and for O moment q
hush fell upon the wholesome. Then
came the death song again and the
warriors plunged forward to the at
tact. 1t lasted but a moment, but
that moment was a bloody one.

calvary horses were stampeded and
in the growing darkness thousands
OF the Indians escaped. The engage

an hour. sully went into camp for

Anderson says he met you on the
avenue yesterday, but he was not sure
that you recognized him." said Jack,
with a troubled look in his honest
eyes.
Il am delighted to hear it, an
swered Madge, with a trill of gay
laughter. THAT was precisely the
state of mind that wished to produce,
but l was not certain / had acquired
the necessary manner. l believe my
education is now complete. What an
unsophisticated creature 1 was year
ago."
81 liked the old Madge best" said
Jack, bluntly.
Did your" said Madge, Indifferent
ly. But what a goose l was! / had
so many illusions. l believed in so
many things and so many people, al
most everything and everybody, /
think, absurd as it seems"
Il had hoped you would always be
kind to my friends, Madge. Anderson
is no carpet-knight; but he is an hon.
est man and a good fellow"
THAT was simply one Of your little
misapprehensions." replied Madge,
lightly. 81 shall always choose my
own friends"
81 did not mean that you should
make my friends yours in the nearest
sense. That would be unreasonable"
said Jack gravely. "All ask is COM
mon civility."
THAT also is at my own discretion"
retorted Madge wilfully.
81 could never cut any one except
for the gravest reasons" said Jack.
soberly. Il never cut any one in my
life but Dick Foster"
"Dick Foster? And what has he
done to incur your displeasure?'
Madge asked, with bright, hard look.
you know that Ella Parsons is in
the insane asylum and you know
why" said Jack, sternly. "He ought
not to be received in decent society"
Madge's face grew still harder. ut
may as we'll be understood once for
all that l shall recognize whom
please, and when and where l please"
she said, icily THAT is a matter in
which l would not be guided by the
Prince of Good Form himself"
"And who is that?" asked the aston
ished Jack.
"Dick Foster" she responded with
another hard glance.
Jack rose unsteadily. He was not
going to quarrel with Madge just then.
He was not fit. For days he had been
aware that his head and legs were a
little queer. Nothing serious, he said

up all the self-control she possessed.
Il will go home now, If you please.

HE has simply been overworked.

ed, soothingly. LAS you know, his
father was obliged to go to Europe for
a prolonged vacation; and that threw
the whole responsibility of the bust
ness on the boy. He has carried the
weight nobly for one so young; but l
warned him weeks ago that he was

suppose he couldn't see his way clear
to do it. He has a trained nurse and
the best of care, and we'll pull him
through all right"
Although Madge went home con-
vinced that she had flattered herself
too much in thinking that her insig-
nifcant doings had brought about
Jacks Illness, she was not entirely re-
assured. Even If she had added little
to the load he had been carrying. she
had done nothing to tighten it, and
she might have done so much. She
had not dreamed it was so heavy.
"And while he was toiling like
slave, you-you were flirting with Dick
Foster" she said contemptuously to
the pale face that confronted here as
she took the fading flowers from her
hair and shook down the shining coils.
Jacks hands lay like withered leaves
on the snowy coverlet, and the wan,
shriveled face on the pillow seemed
hardly human, but his eyes were bright
with returning life and dawning hope.
HAS the princess escaped from the
tower at last? Is it really the old
Madge?" he whispered, doubtfully.
1T is the old Madge, dear" she
answered, tears and smiles struggling
for the mastery of her mobile face, in
spite OF the Doctors injunction as to
excitement "Mr. Anderson is down.

and he brought me here. Shall l tell
him to come up?"
mot just yet" said Jack. happily
studying the face bent over him, and
finding in 1t all he had so loved-and
more. The cynical curl of the lips was
gone, the dewy freshness had come
back to the eyes, and brought with II
sweet, grave womanliness that had
never been there before.
1T is worth far, far more than a
brain fever COSTS" he said at last. with
a sigh Of satisfaction.

to himself, as he descended the steps;
and yet his feet were still unsteady
and his head curlously light.
1t would have been easy for him to
give Madge up had he not firmly be-
lieved that the sweet-souled, dewy-
eyed girl who had won his heart still
dwelt somewhere within that cold and
worldly exterior, IKE a princess shut
in a tower. waiting for some bold
knight to release her from the spell of
the enchanter.
II fear I'm not the knight" he
thought sadly, as he walked heavily
down the street; and still, he could not
decide to give her up-not just yet.

Home of the Oyster.

Oysters are widely distributed
throughout the worll. Their chief hab-
itats are in the United States and in
France, with scattering colonies in
England, Holland and other places.
But the whole number in other parts
of the world is inconsiderable as COM
pared with that of the United States.
Maryland alone produces twice as
many oysters as all the rest Of the
world put together Oysters and pow
erty. Dickens says, go together, but it
is not so in this country. Baltimore
cans an immense number for both for
eign and domestic consumption, the
revenue from which is enormous. The
Indians of the coast, before the dis
covery of America, used them in great
quantities. Near the mouth of ST.
Johns river, Florida, there is a forest
clad mound of over so feet in height
extending over many acres Of ground
consisting entirely of old oyster shells

Jack Downing rs downed at last"
said some would-be wit among the
swaying figures on the ball room floor.
Brain fever"
The words drifted into the conserva-
tory where Madge was sitting, and for
a moment she thought the lights had
gone out. Then they blazed up again
with ten-fold brilliancy, and at the
same time the white light of reason
and common sense that had been so
long obscured in the girls soul flashed
out with all its old power, shattering to
atoms the shell OF worldliness and
scepticism which had closed around
her heart.

raised as To quality or weight.
Benson's Porous Plaster sells on its repu-

be certain of is that the plaster offered him
realty is Benson's, and not worthless imi-
tation of it or substitute for it.
A plaster is the best form of external rem
edy, and Bensou's is the best plaster: 5000
physicians and druggists, and multitude
of people no man can number, have settled
that. "You can trust it," they say.
Coughs, colds, lame back. lumhago, mus
cular stiffness and rheumatism, troubles of
the liver and kidneys, influenza or grip,
pneumonia, and all other diseases open TO
external treatment, are at once relieved and
cure by Benson's Plaster.
Do not assume that Belladonna, Capsi-
cum or s rengthening plasters are "just as
good as" Benson's. They are vastly in-
ferior.-No other plaster is as good as
