IRRIGATION BILL
Hansbrough Is Loaded With Facts
Concerning the Measure.

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Hans
brough Of North Dakota will fire the
opening gun in the irrigation fight this
week, when he will deliver an elaborate
address on the subject. Mr.. Hansbrough
has charge of the bill in the senate. He
has collected large amount of data in re-
gard to the area of land proposed to be
reclaimed and the effect of an increase
in the productive area on the agricultural
interests of the United States. Senator
,Hansbrough denies that the reclamation
of the arid lands Of the west will have a
serious effect on the price of agricultural
commodities. He calls attention to the fact
that while more than 112, 900, 900 acres Of
agricultural lands have been patented dur
ing the past nine years, the price of the
principal grains and other products of the
farm have not varied much except in
times of business depression.
Senator Hansbrough states that the
opponents of irrigation legislation are
endeavoring to prejudice the cause by as
serting that vast areas will be made
available for cultivation shortly after the
proposed law is enacted. Mr.. Hansbrough
SAYS that reclamation will be effected
gradually He says that under the pro-
posed bill less than 100000 acres would
be reclaimed by 1915, and that this portion
would be continued Mr.. Hansbrough is
hopeful that congress will act favorably
on his bill. $500

FREE TO MILLIONS
A Valuable Little Book Sent Free for
the Asking.

Medical books are not always Interesting
reading, especially to people enjoying good
health. but, as a matter Of fact, scarcely one
person in ten is perfectly healthy, and even
with such, sooner or later, sickness must
come.
1t is also a well-establshed truth that nine
tenths of all diseases originate with break
ing down of the digestion; a weak stomach
weakens and impoverishes the system, max
ing it easy for disease to gain foothold.
Nobody need fear consumption, kidney dis
vous system as long as the digestion is good
and the stomach able to assimilate plenty Of
wholesome food.
Stomach weakness shows itself in a score
of ways, and this little book describes the
symptoms and causes and points the way to
cure so simple that any one can understand
and apply.
Thousands have some form of stomach trou-

ONLY ONE WAY
FLESH AND STRENGTH AND TO
CURE INDIGESTION.
SECRET PATENT MEDICINES WILL
NOT Do 1T.


There is only way to purify the blood,
only one way to increase the flesh, and that is
through the, stomach and digestive organs.
Why? Because the stomach and digestive
organs make blood and flesh bone, nerves
and sinew. Did you ever person blessed
with healthy, vigorous stomach and diges-
ton who had impure blood muddy, salow
complexion; or who had weak nerves, sleep
less nights and the thousand and one pains
and aches arising from poor digestion? No,
because perfect digestion converts the food eat
en- into pure blood, strong nerves and muscles,
and all the flesh person needs to have fol
health, fsymmetry and beauty.
Every person knows whether or not his OF
her digestion is what it should be; but every
person does not know what is the safest and
best way to secure and preserve a healthy
condition of the digestive organs. 1t is not
done by the use of any wonderful secret pat
ent medicine, but by the use Of certain
harmless digestive principles, which, taken
at meals, will digest the food anyway, re-
CARELESS of the weak condition Of the
stomach.
Dr.. Brooks recommends a combination OF
vegetable essences, fruit salts, pure aseptic
pepsin and Golden Seal, prepared in con-
venent tablet form and sold by druggists
everywhere under the name OF Stuart's Dys-
These pleasant tasting tablets are to be dis
solved in the mouth after each meal, and
mingling in the food in the stomach. digest
it perfectly. There is nothing wonderful
knows that Stuart s Dyspepsia Tablets will
do this because repeatedly tested and proved
and thousands of cured dyspeptics have found
it to be true also.
Dr. Harlandson states that these tablets in
crease flesh because they digest hesh-formne
food like eggs, meat and ordinary every
day food; for the same reason they purify
the blood and strengthen weak nerves. In
other way can it be done, because flesh
blood and nerves are obtained from the foo(
eat.
Dr.. Jennison once stated that he believed
a 50-cent package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets would give real benefit than $5(
worth of ordinary doctors fees.
These tablets may be found at any drug
store.

FOR MURDER OF WEIGH
CHILKOFF CAUGHT IN THE NORTH
Said to Have Confessed a Crime Conn
mitted Near Bismarck
in 1900.

Bismarck, N. D., Feb. 3.-After being at
liberty eighteen months and wanted for
the murder Of Simon Welch, Uric Chilkoff
is in custody of police officers at West
Superior.
Chilkoff is charged with having MUIR
dered WEIGH at his farm in May, 1900.
Welch was miser and believed to keep
large sums of money in his house. Neigh
bors found him dead in his house and in
vestigation revealed the fact that he had
been shot. box in the cellar of his house
in which he was supposed to have kept his
cash, was ri1ed.
Suspicion was attracted to- Chilkoff
from the fact that he had been seen about
Nelch's place on several occasions prior
to the murderer and was known to have
endeayored to gain the confidence of the
old man.
When Welch's death was discovered
Chilkoff was at a grading camp on the
Washburn road, twenty miles north OF
Bismarck.
Rumors reached him he was suspected
and he left in the night only few minutes
before officers came to arrest him. He
was working in the woods near Superior
when arrested, and is said to have con-
fessed his crime to supposed friends when
under the influence of liquor.

lNIMICAL TO ADM. SCHLEY
AdmiraPs Cause Hurt by His Persis-
tence in Pushing His
Claims.

Neso York. San Special SesvicS
Washington, Feb. 3.-Before the close of
the week President Roosevelt will proba-
bly, hand down his answer to the appeal
of Admiral Schley. The president is
studying the documents in the case close
ly and conscientiously. He has not yet
come to a conclusion on all questions,
but in a general way it is believed that
his mind is pretty we'll made up. That
he will decide against Admiral Schley on
the principal points at issue there is
little reason to doubt The president
regards the statements prepared by Mr..
Hanna in his comment upon Schley's ap-
peal as remarkably strong document.
This document contains great deal
that it might be incorporated in the docu-
ments before the court of inquiry, but
1T was decided at the time that it was
unnecessary to go into the question OF
command at Santiago, as the court had
uniformly ruled against admitting testi-
mony on that point. Mr.. Hanna and
Captain Lemly are gratifed, therefore,
that Admiral Schley in appealing the case
to the president has given them an OPP
portunity to place their argument on rec
ord.
On the question as to who was in
command at Santiago, the president will
sustain the court of inquiry and will hold
with the great body Of naval officers and
participants in the battle that Schley
had nothing to do with the battle beyond
the control of his own ship, the Brooklyn.
It will not be strange if he goes further
than this and expresses the opinion that
Schley should have been relieved and
tried by court martial as soon as his
dispatch was received during the retro
grade movement declaring that he could
not obey the orders of the department.
By taking his appeal to the president,
Admiral Schley has lost the sympathy of
some of his strongest newspaper and po-
litical friends.
The admiral's republican friends in con-
gress have dropped his case altogether
since it began to take on political as
pect. Moreover, some of the more as
tute democratic leaders are displeased by
the persistence with which Schley and his
counsel have kept his grievances before
the public Senator German of Maryland
is one Of these. There is perceptible
change also in the popular sentiment in
Washington.

Heart troubles, at least among Americans,

Real, organic heart disease is incurable:
but not one case in hundred Of heart trou-

The close relation between heart trouble
andO poor digestion is because both organs
are controlled by branches of the same great
nerves, the Sympathetic and Pneumogastric.
In another way also the heart is affected
by that form of poor digestion which causes

Poor digestion also poisops the blood,

POULTRY POINTERS.

Game chickens have more meat in
proportion to their height than any
other breed Of fowls.
When the chickens are growing fast,
it is good plan to mix a little bone
meal in their soft feed.
Smearing whole wheat with kerosene
or turpentine and feeding it to the
chickens is good remedy for gapes.
Adding some carbohc acid and put
ting on hot will secure much better re-
suits from the whitewashing of the
poultry house.
While it is at no time advisable to
keep food Of any kind before the fowls
all the time, it will be an advantage to
keep milk where they can drink all
they want.
Fowls do not run together in large
numbers. They will always divide into
fiocks Of small size and will select diff
ferent feeding grounds, always pro-
vided they have the opportunity.
A growing chicken, like a growing
animal, requires plenty Of good, whole
some food supplied literally and often
in order to enable them to grow and
mature rapidly and to develop proper
lv.

The Sensitive Tortoise.

Few animals seem more impassive
than the tortoise, but those who have
ever watched its movements know that
the creature is really very sensitive.
A few drops Of rain will send it home
with all speed. Even the distant APP
proach of a shower makes it uneasy.
Hence Gilbert White remarked that his
tortoise showed "as much solicitude
about the rain as lady dressed in all
her best attire"
The bright light of the sun seems
especially grateful to tortoises. They
rarely stir out at night, and the APP
proach Of winter drives them into their
retreats. This physical sensitiyeness
shows their temperament to be less
sluggish than is commonly supposed.
The animal also learns to recognize
persons and remembers those who feed
it, instantly distinguishing them from
strangers.
