for mayor of Grand Forks, has hand
some gold watch which was presented
to him by the First National Bank of
Northfield in remembrance of his SER
vices in assisting in repelling the at
track on that bank in 1876, by the
James and Younger brothers A his
tory of that famous raid was written by
Professor Huntington and he tells of
the bravery and qIick action of DR..
Wheeler at the time. He was visiting
his home during his vacation and was
one of the first to suspect that an at
tempt was being made to.rob the bank
Mr.. Allen was the first to give the
alarm and at the same time DR.. Wheeler
stepped into the street from his
fathers store where he had been sit
ting and shouted robbery" and then
turned to get his gun, but remarked
that he had left it at home and then
went to the Dompier hotel where an
old army carbine with three cartridges
was secured, and he was soon at the
second story window. His first shot
was at Jim Younger, but the shot car
ried high, and Younger looked for the
gunner and then rode by Wheeler

fallen to the floor and had burst the
paper, and a fresh supply was then
brought him by a friend, and immedi-
ately followed several shots at Bot
Younger, by Mr.. Manning, but the
former lodged behind a stairway and
returned the fire and this was repeated
several times, when DR.. Wheeler shot
at Younger, the ball striking the rob.
ber's elbow. shattering the bone. YOun-
ger cody changed his pistol to his left
hand and continued to shoot at Man

FORMER GOVERNOR OF NORTH
DAKOTA, IN A RECENT VISIT TO
THE ISLAND.
Hon John Miller of Duluth has re-
turned from trip to Cuba, where he
spent some time with his family. OF
conditions in Cuba as he saw them he
says:
| was very much pleased with the eli
mate of Havana. 1t was about like
our midsummer. with trees and flowers
all in blossom and people clad in their
light summer clothing. Under the
present management Havana is about
the cleanest city ever saw. While
we were not able to talk Spanish, we
were able to get about quite comfort
ably as we always found someone who
could talk and understand English.
ann convinced that Cuban indus
trial conditions have been affected
rather adversely by the results of the
Spanish-American war. I was told by
large manufacturers of tobacco that
their output was not more than half
of what it was before the war; and the
sugar and other agricultural industries
are in an unsatisfactory condition
owing, in a measure, to the high du-
ties imposed by the United States
which leave them no market in which
-. =
Z to dispose of their products at profit
Added to that is the feeling OF uncer.
tainty as to the political future of the
island which has much to do with re
Y tarding development and attracting
American capital There seemed to be
"a good deal of uncertainty among ths
most intelligent as to what would be
the result Of the attempt of Cuba tt

! predict there will be an insurrection ii
less than six months. It can be read
lily understood how all this uneertainty
has a tendency to retard new enter
Drises and the investment Of American

both in dictionaries and in the speech

JUMPED ABOUT

What a hades some people go through be-
cause their food does not supply the right
kind of punishment to the body. Take
the following for example:
A gentleman in Baltimore says: About
two years ago / began to experience a Pc
culiar depression occasionally, with pains
in the back part of the head and down
along the spine. Gradually my eyesight
began to fail and my memory grew poor.
A general nervousness set In. ! used all
the will power / could command to help
myself, but / was forced to give up a good
position and seek the advice OF the family
doctor. He said neurasthenia and sent me
to q great nerve specialist. So, for four
months was massaged and dosed with
medicine. but all TO no benefit; then l went
to New York and consulted Dr.. He
sent me to another great specialist, and he,
in turn. sent me to - Sanitarium,
where l stayed for a long time.
1T was the same old story. l wa dosed
with medicine and massaged and bathed.
Finally l left there and went to another
specialist. who told me / would only live a
few months. This rather frightened me
and I placed myself under DR.. --. He
said the stomach was at fault and probably
I had not been given the right kind OF
food.
He put me on a certain line Of treat
ment and insisted that / use three or four
teaspoonfuls Of Grape-Nuts each meal. I
was under his care for several months. /
steadily improved until now / am fully re-
stored to both mental and bodily vigor.
He explained to me that Grape-Nuts
contains a goodly portion Of potash. a
nerve and brain food. and that the food be-
ing partially digested, the system could
make use OF 1t easily. At any rate, / got
well, and both the doctor and myself know
that Grape-Nuts made It possible.
Il sincerely believe that practically all OF
our nervous troubles are caused by imper-
feet nourishment 1t was fortunate for
me that / could get such a food as Grape
Nuts. You can use this letter, but don
publish my name. please" Name given By

est indication that he was considering any

every locality was quiet.
President Mitchell will leave late this

in the bituminous regions, but this he
emphatically denies.
