Dan O'Leary and Pierce Cahill

Canada in a few days for the purpose
of looking over the country.
The children of S. Gold of Big
Stone, who have been visiting at
the Wallace home for several weeks,
returned home the first of the week.
Cahill Bros. intend to start to

the work completed.
DR.. Sasse reports that Raymond
Quirk, who was kicked by a horse
last week Monday, is now much
better and that his recovery is
beyond a doubt. 1t was feared for
some time that brain fever would
result, but the doctor thinks that all
danger of this has passed, and his
recovery will now be but a matter of
time.
The dedication services at the Con-
greg ational church last Sunday
we're largely attended considering
the state of the weather. The dedi-
cation sermon preached by Rev.
Thrall was quite impressive, and the
music furnished by the Milbank Male
Quartette and the instrumental music
by Mr.. A. Ainsworth of Watertown
was fine. Rev. Thompson of Frank
fort, this state was also present and
delivered an address. On account of
the rain in the afternoon there was
not a very large attendance at the
afternoon services, but in the even

and is something that should be en-
couraged. If every person living in
the prairie states would make a duty
to plant as many trees as possible
each year they would notice a great
change for the better in the looks of
the country in the course of a few
years. There is no better time than
the present in which to start this
work, and every person who plants a

improve and beautify the country, so
get out the spade and don't be the
last one.

A WOman'S Wealth.
Paine'ssC Celery
Compound
GIVES VIGOR AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.

1t is maintained by many distinguished
writer's that the greatness of a nation depends
much upon the physical condition of its
women. The general conditions which con-
tribute to health and long life, are these which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovable, we cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing to overwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion of life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debili-
tated.
We bring to the attention of all weary,
respondent, hopeless, and siclly women
earth's great rescuer and health builder,
Pane's Celery Compound. Thousands Of
healthy women around us owe their present
vigor, activity, and robustness TO Paine's
Celery Compound. Mrs Stephen Smith, St.
Paul, Mimi, tells how she was snatched from
the grave; she says;-
81 had bad attack of la grippe this spring
and was at deaths door, and no one ever
expected me to recover. l was so weak that
as soon as they brought me out of one faint

nourishment, and doctors medicines did me
no good. A friend advised my husband to
get me a bottle of Paines Celery Compound,
which he did. but had no faith in it. The
second day after taking the Compound, |
began to get real hungry and took an interest
in things. had everything that money and
loving care could supply, and with that and

HENRY T. ALLEN
Rapid Rise Of An Army officer
From Kentucky.

Maj. Henry T. Allen, of Bath
county, Ky F., who is well known in
Lexington and for whose promo
tion to the rank of Brigadier Cen
eraI bill has been introduced in
Congress, has probably made the
most rapid stride of any young man
that ever entered West Point from
Kentucky.
After graduation from West
Point young Allen was sent on an
exploring expedition in Alas ka,
where he remained through the
winters of 1884 and 1885, furnish
ing to the Del tment at Washing
ton much valuable information.
I've was appointed First Lieutenant
after u term as tutor at West Point,
going to Walls Walla, Wash in
1886. In 1892 he was attached to
the United States legation at ST.
Petersburg, where he remained
for FIVE years. He was finally re-
turned to Fort Riley, Kansas,
where he did splendid work in
physical and mental training in
the cavalry service, being highly
complimented by Gen. Miles and
by Gen. Wesley Merritt.
Relieved at Fort Riley on June
8, 1897, he was ATTACHED to the
United States embassy at Berlin,
where he remained until the wal
with Spain. He at once asked fol
and was given charge of Troop D
United States cavalry, in Cuba
and supported Capt. CaprGn July
and 9 in the battle of FL Caney
For courage and valor displayed
in this battle he was made assis-
tant Adjutant General of the Unit
ed States Volunteers.
Inspector General Joseph c
Breckenridge wrote: Ellis gal

In commenting upon the worl

Rnts and Their Food.

The capacity of rats for discovering
fresh stores Of food is astounding and
often leads to those united migratory
movements that periodically create
alarm and are described as plaques
Of rats" These great, movements are
undoubtedly initiated and personally
conducted by old and experienced
rats, the aldermen Of the colony, at
once proof Of highly developed In
telligence and unselfishness. Rats in
large centers Of industry, If not pres
ent in commercial plague form, do a
great deal of good as consumers Of
garbage that would otherwise become
a perilous nuisance. 1t is also popular
delusion that a rat bite is unusually
dangerous from this fact of sewer
garbage eating. On the contrary, rats
cut as clean as a new lancet.-Pall Mall

the Bedouins long marches across dry

nicely calculated to just outlast the
journey, and they rarely allow them

their next water fast all the harder.
They are accustomed from infancy to
regard water as most precious COM

nook in the mountains where water
may be found. Their camels and goats,
which they take with them on their
marches to supply them with milk

scanty herbage and foliage Of the
thorny mimosa. Neither men nor ami
mails drink more than once In forty
eight hours. No wonder they can sub

MUCH INTEREST MANIFESTED

| The city election is passing off quiet
| ly today, although there is much inter-
est manifested in the contest. A heavy
vote is being polled, and men who are
supposed to have accurate ideas Of such
things said late this afternoon that the
total would probably reach 1400.
A remarkable feature of the election
Is the small number Of voters being
sworn in. Precinct No. 1 led in this
respect at 2:30 this afternoon, with 10,
lwhile,only four were sworn in at No. 2.
| At No. 3seven or eight were sworn in,
and at No. only five or six. In the
Fest End precincts little more than a
dozen voters had been rut through the
| formality e
interest in todays contest centers
around the fight for the offices of po-
| lice commissionership, treasurer and
auditor and police Judge. The friends
Of the candidates for these offices have
been working hard and there was no
lack of interest among them.
There Is also much intrest in the al
dermanic contests, but generally the
fight seems to have centered around the
police commissionership Republicans
said their candidates were polling the
full party strength and seemed conf
dent of the outcome.
At 2:3O oclok the total vote cast in
the city was 1872, out of total registra-
tion of 143O., There were COS votes yet
to be cast at that hour. The showing
at 2:3O indicated heavy vote, for there
are many laboring men who had not
then gone to the polls. The heavy vote
will be cast late in the afternoon, when
tn efactory employees finish work. Re
publicans and democrats expressed the
opinion that the number Of votes would
come up to the number of registra-
tions The vote at 2:30 in the several
polling places, as compared with the
registration. was as follows:
