Beware of a Cough.

A cough is not disease but symptom.
Consumption and bronchitis, which are
the most dangerous and fatal diseases,
have for their first indication persistent
cough, and if properly treated as soon as
this cough appears are easily cured.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy has proven
wonderfully successful, and gained its
wide reputation and extensive sale by its
success in curing the diseases which cause
coughing. If it is not beneficial it will
not cost you cent. For sale by f, T.

Sale of Black Hills & Fort

Anxiety.

North. Western and Elkhorn officials
are suffering no anxiety over the re-
ported purchase by the Burlington of
the Black Hills q Fort Pierre road,
despite the fact that the line has for
years been extensively tributary in
traffic to the Elkhorn at Piedmont, the
point of interception and the south
east terminal of the Hill road.
Since the deal became matter of
general credence the newspapers of
that section have been giving much
space to stories of how hard the Elk
horn was hit by this sale, how it
would lose all its transfer traffic at
Piedmont and how it would be COM
PEELED to build at once track of its
own from Central City, the nearest
point, into Lead in order to get a
hand IN the traffic from there. 1t has
even been published broadcast

had already surveyed up Poorman

Concerning the s @ & P Him

the following to say regarding the
responsibility for the accident:
On Monday Superintendent Ma
hanna, OF the s y & p, and Su-
perintendent Dixon, of the Chero-
kee division of the Illinois Cen
trail, were in town to ascertain
which train was in the blame for
the wreck. Railroad men always
keep their business close, but it
he's gotten out that each company
will stand it's own loss, with the
understanding that the Sioux City
& Pacific wreckine crew put the
wrecked cars on the Illinois Cen
trail flat cars. This was done on
Tuesday. Neither engineer or
conductor has been laid off.
