UNDER INVESTIGATION.
Ranchmen Who Have Fenced Gov
eminent Lands.

Omaha, Neb., Dec. 1.-The alleged
Illegal fencing of several millions of
acres of government land by extensive
cattle owners and ranchmen of western
Nebraska occupied the attention of the
federal grand jury today. Several
prominent men, among them state and
United States officials. are said to be
among those whose cases are under
investigation. Although not officially
given out it is stated that one extensive
cattle owner, and a leader in the move
ment to keep fences standing has al
ready been indicted. The court, how
ever, refuses to make public the in
dictment until arrests have been made.
For several months the government has
been collecting evidence against illegal
fencers, which is being laid before the
grand jury.
The cases to be brought to the atten-
ton of the present jury are those where
notice has been served to remove
fences, and in which it has found after
the expiration of the sixty day limit
allowed by law, that the fences are
still standing. Only those involving
very large tracts of land are expected
to be brought to the attention of the
jury at this time. It is estimated that
the lands said to be Illegally fenced in
western Nebraska approximate seven
millions of acres, occupied by between
700 and 800 ranchmen. Many of these
men have as high as $4,000 acres and
in a few instances as much as 100, 900
acres. Some have obeyed the injunc-
ton to remove their fences, but these
amount to less than one-tenth of the
entire number.

A REED SHAKEN
WITH THE WIND.
without VIII Power. Courage Ambition
Energy or Hope, the Dyspep5ic Is Will
ing to Give UP the Struggle.

The confirmed dyspeptic has as little
interest in life as any human being. He
is untitled for its duties and is indiffer-
ent to its charms. He is unable to en-
joy the business and social relations
that constitute the life of the average
man. All his hopes are absorbed by
the one hope to get well and again be
able to enjoy the good things of life
Until this is realized, he is sick 1t heart
and feels himself to be of little use.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
sufferers tree of life. They will cure
him and bring him health and happi-
ness just as sure and certain as he
takes them. They are sure because
they are natural and no other cure but
a natural one is sure. They act on the
food and digest it just as well as a
stomach would. They contain exactly
the same chemical properties as the di-
gestive fluids of the stomach
BY putting Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets in a bottle or jar with any kind Of
food meat, eggs or vegetables. with
sufficient amount of water, the process
of digestion is carried out just as it is
in a healthy human stomach and in the
same time There is consequently no
unnatural disturbance of the digestive
organs resulting from the use of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. They re-
leve the weak and Worn-out stomach of
its work and permit it to rest up and
recuperate and regain it's normal health
and strength.
A well-known Buffalo physician says
Il prescribe Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
on all occasions as relief for weaken
ed and rundown stomachs. 1 find they
contain all the ingredients necessary
for the proper digestion of the food and

needed rest than any medicine I could
