J. G. Hackmann of Milwaukee, who
with DR.. G.. Rowland was here in July
and August for the purpose ofrelieving
the distressed, by sending them to
medical institute in St. Paul or selling
them treatment at home, was here for
short time last week in the interest
of his business. -,
: Senator Somerville appeared before
the supreme court last Wednesday in
the case of the county seat trouble
between Lake Benton and Ivanhoe.
The county seat was moved to Ivanhoe
two years ago and that is now being
held as the capital of Lincoln County.
Hon. John Lind appeared for the
people of Ivanhoe. .s~
The minstrel show that is billed for
this city on tomorrow evening is put
on by a troupe of white people, not a
colored man in the lot. For this reason
the performance may be expected to
be better than if the troupe was made
UP of colored people, for it is we'll
known fact that colored MINISTRIES are
the best when there is not a colored
man in the performance.
It is we'll as matter of record that
it be stated that the grass and foliage
was as green on the first of October
this year as it was in the middle of
summer, and that in some cases plants
have bloomed and put on the appearance
of spring. In more ways than one this
has been a remarkable season, and
would have been ideal if some of the
rain could have been reserved for
future use.
The eight o'clock provision of the
ordinance regulating the curfew for
children will 60 into effect the first of
the coming month and then it will be
expected that all children will be in
the family domicile just one hour
earlier than at the present time. This
will cut off the fun of a good many of
the youngsters, but at the-same time
it will teach them that there is no
place like home. "
c. A. Zelle has unique way Of ad-
vertising his store and at the same
time selling shoes. He gives a ticket
with each pair of shoes that he sells
and that ticket entities the holder to a
chance for a pair of shoes free. The
tickets are only good for one week and
the brewing takes place every Monday.
The scheme has worked very we'll the
short time that it has been importation,
as the lucky person has the choice of
the store to pick from.
DR.. G. r. Merrill, who was to have
preached at the Congrega tional church
Sunday morning, disappointed his
audience and sent substitute in the
person of a young fellow by the, name
of Winfred Altvater who is a resident
of the city of Cleveland, Ohio. He is
young man and is interested in the
7. M. @. work, not being an ordained
minister. He made interesting and
quite extraordinary SMILES in the
progress of his discourses.
G. W. Barnes, O. J. Duane and D..
Kogge, of this city have spent the past
week in the northwestern part of
Wisconsin in search of homestead
land, upon which they expect to file.
According to all accounts they have
found what they were looking for and
the question now is whether or not
they have enough of the farmer about
them to do their part towards proving
up on the claims. The party returned
Monday evening, having picked out
some fine pieces of land upon which
they will file later.

Tonopah DOings.

About half the force of the Val
ley View mine was laid off the past
week. This move was made in ohe-
dience to instructions received
from the east to reduce the force
at all the company's mines, which
was begun yer a month ago. OF
the $50 men employed two months
ago on the Mizpah, Burro and VAL
ley View, only about one-half re-
main, the rest having been ''draft-
ed" The mines are all opened up
now to such an extent that their
future is assured, and the company
has decided to go slow in develop
ment till means are at hand to re-
duce the ore. The properties are
all practically opened up to a depth
of 800 feet, and ore enough is in
sight to keepa 500-stamp mill in
steady operation for a long term of
years. For months past the CON-
pany has underworld to pay the
working expenses of the properties
by the regular shipments of ore,
and while it has succeeded in doing
this, it has been done at a great
loss. To handle this ore that was
shipped to the smelters has cost
from $40 to $50 per ton, besides
the losses occasioned by leakage,
and as from 1000 To 1900 tons were
shipped monthly, the loss can be
readily appreciated when it is
understood that the ore could be
worked at an expense not exceeding
$40 per ton if it were reduced at
home. In this connection the
Bonanza is authorized to state that
the visit of John Brock, president
of the company, and c. c. Berger,
assistant and consulting engineer
to John Hays Hammond, who will
arrive here next Tuesday means
the almost immense reduction
plant.-Bonanza.

TERMS.
The Home Pro-
mOter.

Not so very long ago a gentle
man of our acquaintance had a
mining deal on, and was expecting
an investor from the East who in
tended to examine the property,
says the Leadville Herald Demo
crat. The local man had not come
in contact with that particular
species described above, and
thought it the proper thing to tell
some Of his friends about the arri-
val. The first man he met took
him to one side and impressively
breathe1 these words in his ear;
"Son said he, you hold your
tongue about that Eastern party
coming here, if you want to get
that deal through. Take the adj
vice of a philosopher, and do as I
tell you. When you learn that
your party is to arrive, meet him
at the depot, and don't let him out
of your sight until he leaves. Eat
with him, sleep with him, il neces-
sary: don't let any one else talk to
him, unless you are certain you
can trust the man be talks to.
"There are men who prowl
around seeking just such fellows
as your friend, the investor. If
they can get next to him they will
blast your reputation, and, after
sowing seeds of distrust, they will
seek to lead the man to look into
their schemes. Take my advice
and be wary"
This is not a dream but a true
story. The home promoter" is a
dangerous character. He turks in
our midst and is very poisonous.
But if the public is made acquaint-
ed with some of his characteristics
those in danger from his poison
can guardthemselyes.

When Bedtime
Came.

On the Santa Fe train coming
out of Kansas City, recently. were
a mother and q brood Of fve-four
girls and one boy. They were from
Illinois and on their way to the
"new country" where the husband
and father had a claim which is to
be their new home, says the Well
ington, Kansas, news. The eldest
girl appeared to be about fifteen
and from that age they ranged
down to the boy, a chubby little
fellow Of about four. Their dress
and manners showed that they had
not been reared in the midst of
luxury and opulence, butthey were
model children and scrupulously
clean. The mothers face was thin
and haggard from the worry of the
long trip and the care of the pre-
cious flock, for there were twenty
four hours yet before the journeys
end. 1t was after dark when the
train left Kansas City, and the
youngest ones were soon yawning
and scarcely able to stay awake.
In fact the boy, the pet of the
family, had closed his eyes and
was fast approaching "shut eye
town." while the next older tugged
at him as she looked appealingly
to her mother. The others began
whispering among themselves and
then to the mother as If something
exciting had happened or would
happen soon, which attracted the
attention of the other passengers.
Presently the cause of all this
excitement was made plain-it was
bedtime and they had not said their
prayers. Quietly and modestly
mother and children knelt together
the baby bowling his head with
the rest, and rubbing with chubby
hands eyes that would hardly stay

open while night prayers are said.
Then they arose, the children made
as comfortable US possible for the
night, and soon all but the mother
we're asleep, while the moistened
eyes and quivering lips of the
other passengers paid a silent but
mighty tributet to the greatest civil
izing agent of all ages, religion.

A WISH,

To a Two-Weeks-Old Baby Roy.
If one were choosing out the ways
He'd like to have you tread,
If one were picking out the skies
To arch above your head,
No doubt he'd pick the same old ways,
And skies the same bright blue,
AS those OLD ways and those blue skies
That his own boyhood knew.
And so wish for you the things
think may bring you joy;
That you may be harum-sca
Good old-fashioned boy;
That you may, where the placid branch
Lies whipping in the sun,
shuck Off your duds and swim and have
Some good old-fashioned fun.
That You may climb the wooded hills.
And find grapevine swing:
mat you may know and mock the tunes
Of all the birds that sing:
That you may find sweetheart wee,
And take your knife and mark
her name and yours, heart-bordered, In
Some craggy oak trees bark.
For If you know not things like these,
These good old-fashioned joys,
The good old ways and things we loved
When we were little boys.
Manhood won't mean so much to You.
Nor be so full of joy;
And so just wish you may be
A good old-fashioned boy.

FOOTBALL ACCIDENT.
E"phasizes Fact That Only the
strongest and Physically Fit
Should BE Allowed to Play.

80 many accidents have been laid to
the game of football and so many lads
have been crippled thereby that we sell
dom hear of, the injuries and deaths
that might have been avoided. The
death OF a young medical student of
Baltimore during q contest, but at a
time when the ball was not in play,
says the New York Herald, affords a
striking instance Of an easily prevent
ible accident.
The victim had been a sufferer from
heart disease for a long time and yet
was allowed to take active part in the
game. His condition should have
been, If it was not, known to his med
ical associates.
There is no account of his having
received any injury previous to the
time he was stricken with collapse.
No better proof CT his unfitness for any
extra physical exertion eau be given
than the suddenness of his death while
he was merely resting. The lesson OF
the sad story is emphatic and con-
vincing.
There is no game that requires more
careful and systematic training than
football and only the strongest are
capable of bearing the strain. If there
is any physical weakness in the can
didate it becomes quickly manifest as
he goes on with his exercises, and why
such incapacity could not have been
discovered in time to have saved the
unfortunate youth is difficult to mag
inc

liable Speculation ON City
Cemetery Lot.

Zone of those things which go to show
that where there is will there is way
is well exemplified by happening in a
certain southern city," said a we'll
known former railroad man in the New
Orleans Times-Democrat "a man be-
fore his marriage had purchased a
beautifully located lot in the city GEM
etery and paid 500 for it. After awhile
he married and some ten or twelve years
afterward died and was buried in the
aforesaid beautifully located lot and his
grave was carefully attended for awhile
by his widow.
when the big show came of in Chi
cago and all the world was en- route to
that mecca the widow took notion she
must see the show. AS result OF
long cogitation over ways and means
she had the body Of her deceased hus-
band exhumed and railroaded so miles
away and reburied at cost of about
SIS, when she sold the cemetery lot for
$500 and had good old time at the big
worlds fair. Somewhat of financier,
wasn't she?"

PAPER BED QUILTS.
They Are Said to Be as Warm or Even
Warmer Than the Old-Time
Wooden Blanket.

Although it has long been known
that paper is a bad conductor of heat,
little use has been made of this fact
until recently. A few years ago one
heard of newspapers being laid over a
bed in winter to supply extra warmth
in emergencies, but the idea seemed SO
absurd that it never was extensively
tried. Besides, at best it was only a
temporary expedient. The improvised
cover was sure to be displaced or torn
in short time.
Of late two methods of employing
the principle have been found. One is
to work up thick. soft material that
can be used for lining women's jackets.
For that commodity a considerable sale
has been found. Being introduced, like
wadding, between the inner and outer
layers of cloth, it is protected from
friction, and thus may last for a long
time.
The other plan is to manufacture a
durable bed quilt. For this business
a company has been organized in
North Carolina No doubt thickness
and f1exibility are insured by the
choice of material and mode of prepa-
ration. Some parts of the process n are
novel enough, it is Sid, to lead the in
ventors to seek a patent According
to a dispatch from Lexington, N. c.,
the quilts are made Of two sheets OF
crimped paper, with cloth outsides.
The quilts are absolutely air tight
and are said to be as warm as or
warmer than wooden blankets 1ne
paper used will be disinfected. and
many prominent physicians say the
quilts will be more healthy than the
quilts now in use. The rustling noise
noticeable about paper is absolutely
done away with by the use of the
crimped paper, and when finished the
quilts are very plant and almost as
soft as wooden blankets. They are to
be quilted on sewing machine.

DEATH THAT IS PAINLESS.
Many Tramps Who Take Their Last
Sleep on Burning Culm Banks
in Pennsylvania.

Death comes in many forms In the
anthracite mines Of Pennsylvania, but
only one form is painless and pleasant,
and to only one the victims go uncon-
sciously. 1t is the death of the burning
culm bank, says the New York Sun,
Many times during the year is such
a death recorded when one of these
great culm banks is burning. The fire
is not seen in the daytime, and at night
it shines only with a faint glow
through the layers of ashes which sep
arate the live Goals from the outer air.
To these burning banks tramps and

A NEW CANCER CURE.
Testing, Although They Have
Been Disappointed Frequently.

Important results have been attained
by the new cancer treatment.
1t was discovered by DR.. Otto Schmidt,
OF Cologne, and Investigated by DR..
jesse Johnson, of London, who has
given the results of his observation to
the medical society of London. \
DR.. Schmidt does not claim finality for
his discovery, but he asserts that he has
isolated the specific parasite which
causes cancer.
Many parasites have already been dis
covered, notably by DR.. Gaylord, in
America, as associated with cancer,
DR.. Schmidt maintains that they all are
one and the same, their shape and ap-
pearance being determined by varying
conditions. By altering the conditions
Schmidt has made his parasite assume
all these different appearances. He uses
this parasite in two different forms.
either sterilized or as serum obtained
in the usual way by inoculating ami.
mails.
BY injecting the sterilized parasite
into a cancer patient he becomes fever
ish, and in about ten hours the cancer
GUS growth becomes painfully inflamed.
Injected into healthy persons, including
himself, the preparation produced no
result, SO that it also constitutes test
of doubtful cancerous growths.
In every cancer case of 20 tried the
cancerous growth gradually became sur
rounded with scar, the tissue contract
ing the growth and leading to it's de-
generation.
The treatment reduces malignant
tumors to innocent growths, limits
their spreading power and renders re-
moval effective.
The discovery has been received by
the profession here with the greatest
reserve in view of so many previous dis
appointments, but it is admitted that
the method is worthy of a trial.
DR.. Schmidt's treatment was brought
to DR.. Johnson's knowledge by mill
lionaire whose wife has obtained great
benefit from it.

CONDEMNED MURDERERS SING.
They Greet Death Sentence in Merry
Style-IndulEe In Lively Song
on Way to Prison.

Two criminals were condemned to
death by the court of Tuebingen, in.
Germany, recently for a murder and
robbery which they had carefully
planned.
On the death sentence being passed
one of the men calmly drew out his
snuff box and took a pinch of snuff.
When the question was put to the jury
whether the prisoners should be rec
commended to the kings grace, he re-
marked that he did not place the slight
est value on his life, and jocularly prom
ised to pay the police sergeant a visit
some day, carrying his head under his
arm.
On entering the prison van the men
took leave of the public with a hearty
"Good-by, gentlemen; amuse your
selves" During the drive to the prison
they sang lively song, and their prison
they greeted with hurrahs.
