The name of Samuel K. Deverill on
the republican county ticket is an
assurance to the taxpayers that in his
election tc the Office of county treas
urer the people will not inaugurate
kindergarten school in the treasurer's
office. Mr.. Deverill did not solicit
the nomination 1t came to him as
the unanimous choice of the party in
the county and with it the assurance
from many democrats that he would
be supported by them at the polls.
An unfortunate feature of the race
for the county treasurship is the fact
that the bank deposits for the coun-
ty have been injected into the cam
paign by the opponents of Mr.. Dever-
il. The latter has made no pledges
along that line, believing that the sew
eral banking institutions of the coun-
ty should not be made part of the
issues OF the campaign. Mr. Deverill
is business man and as such be-
lieves that the Office to which he as
pires should treat the banks upon
safe and just business lines. He is
allied with no particular business or
financial concern.

HE REMOVED THE CORPSE

New York, Oct. 26.-Three stowa-
ways, Johnson, Jensen and Hansen,
have landed in New York, despite the
immigrant officials, who were bent On
shipping them back to Norway and
Sweden.
They came over on the steamer
Oscar H., and Johnson broke the rec
ord for ingenuity in hiding himself
away by crawling into a coffin, where
he remained for several hours The
three men slowed away on the Oscar
II. the night before the steamship
sailed. On the second day out all
were discovered by an officer. They
were hauled before the captain, who
set them at work in the stoke hole.
There they heard startling stories of
the fate that awaited stowaways when
they arrived in New York.
It was too much for Johnson. He
learned that steerage passenger had
died, and that his body had been en-
closed in a pine box to be brought to
port. Johnson saw his opportunity
and, going down into the hold that
night, he tore the top off the box, took
the body out and hid it under pile
of mating. Then he crawled into the
coffin himself. He replaced the top
so carefully that the nails fitted into
the holes from which he had wrench
| ed them.
Twenty-four hours later he was
dragged out after the ship had been
searched from stem to stern. He
was half famished and badly frighten
er, but, with his companions, he man
aged to dodge about from the deporta
tion pen at Ellis island into the booth
for admitted immigrants and reached
shore.

Near Wibaux.

From Mondays Daily Gazette.
A report came from Wibaux this

BILE EYE STRAIN.
Or. OODD'S GLASSES DID IT
Was Unable to Work at His Trade
Other Doctors Advised
Operation.

Probably no case of eye strain has
so baffled the opticians as that Of
Mr.. T. J. Jellison. Several have ac-
knowledged that they did not under
stand his case, while many have at
tempted to furnish him with glasses
that would afford him relief; the fail
ure to do so left Mr.. Jellson with lit
tie hopes Of obtaining relief unless an
operation was performed on both
eyes as several doctors had advised.
He stated these facts to Dr. Dodd and
acknowledged that he had very little
confidence in glasses, but after the
doctor had examined his eyes and
explained his trouble to him. he was
convinced that he had at last con-
suited a man who thoroughly under
stood his case and he was therefore
not surprised when his glasses came
to find that they did as the doctor
had assured him they would, j. e. re-
lieve him Of all optical defect and
muscular trouble. His eyes were 50
bad that he could not use but one at.
time, seeing one object above an
other when both were open He says.
he is convinced that DR.. Dodd is a
specialist of high ability.
The following are a few who are
equally pleased with DR.. Dodd's;
glasses: Mr.. Willis Spear, Mrs. Will
lis Spear, Mrs. Lydia Trask, Mr.. w.
F. Broach, Mrs. H. T. Lovette, Mrs.

When Christian Yegen goes to Hell
ena next winter to represent Yellow
stone in the state senate he will go
as the representative of all the people
of the county, irrespective of politics.
Mr.. Yegen's name is known to every
taxpayer in the county. He has been
here 20 years and in the building up
at this point of the largest CONNER
cial institution between st. Paul and
Butte, with very limited capital to
start with, has shown the people that
he is possessed of marked business
ability.
In all matters in which the city and
county are interested Mr. Yegen has
always taken leading part. While
in no sense a politician, he has had
experience in the legislative halls Of
the state. With Colonel Babcock he
served the county in the legislature
some years ago and gave a good ac-
count of his stewardship.
Owing to pressing business inter
ests Mr.. Yegen has not found time
to visit all the voting precincts in
the county, but that does not indicate
that he is not in the senatorial race
to win. Mr.. Yegen is devoting him
self to the canvass where the votes
are the thickest and is making an eff
fective campaign in the interest of
the cause of republicanism.

When the republicans named War
rem A. Evans for the Office of county
assessor they se4ected one of the
most competent men in the county to
fill that position. Years of expert
ence in banks, commercial institu-
tions and county Offices have brought
to him ripe knowledge in business
affairs which will accrue to the ben
eft of the taxpayers should they by
their ballots decide that Mr.. Evans
shall fill the Office of county assessor.
In his canvass among the voters,
Mr.. Evans is adding many friends to
a long list of former admirers, and
! it is freely predicted that his will

ENGLISH TAKING GREAT PRE-.
CAUTION AGAINST UPRISING.
WARNING TO GUN MAKERS
Birmingham Manufacturers Must Not
Ship Arms or Ammunition to
Proclaied Districts.

London, Oct 26.-The apprehension
with which the governent views the
condition in Ireland can be judged
from the fact that the chief constable
Of Birmingham has issued warning
to all arm and ammunition manufac-
turers not to sell goods for shipment
to the proclaimed districts of Ireland.
4 special order has also been issued
that even to such parts of Ireland
as are not proclaimed shipments of
arms must be clearly marked as such,
under pain of stringent penalties.
With this echo of Irelands storm
lest days comes the announcement
of the release of three Joyces who
were undergoing life sentences at
Marlborough Jail for the murder of a
whole family of similar name in 1882.
The crime was known in those days
as the Maamtrasna massacre.
The three Joyces were released, ow-
ing to the clemency of the lord lieu
tenant of Ireland, the Earl of Dudley.
The Earl and Countess of Dudley
during the inaugural trip through Gal
way, were approached by the wives
and other relatives of the imprisoned
men. The wives begged that they
might have a chance to meet their
husbands again after 20 years of sep
aration. One of the women seized
Lady Dudley's hand and wept bit
terly as she begged for her interces-
sion. Lord Dudley was much affect
ed and promised to do what he could.
The pardon of the three men followed.
