"Ihere was pleasant round of social
events last week that were especially
planned In honor of the visitors who have
been enjoying Celiua hospitality Of late.
On Thursday evening large reception
was given by MIR. and MIS-. D. Helwarth
that their many friends might greet DR..

Just to please his wife. Isn't be lovely"

"You wouldn't do that much to please

KEEP OFF THE TRACK.
Everyone Should Help Get the Race
Track in Condition

Owing to the continued dry weather
and the large amount Of driving on the
race track 1t will be hard to keep the
track in condition until the fair next
month. There are horses here now that
will be worked on the track until the
fair races. In order to keep from making
the track too hard to be used 1t will be
necessary to abandon 1t az a town drive
for the next two weeks. No doubt every
one will appreciate this fact and use some
lof our other nice drives until after the

Last December female hobo dressed
in male attire was in Dodge City for two
or three days. A young man who
claimed to be her husband was with her.
They claimed they were married In CAL
ifornia and were beating their way to the
east where the woman's people lived. AT
Danville, ILL.,, two months later they got
into trouble with a man and In fight
which followed shot him. The girl who
was only II pleaded guilty to the crime
to save the man and she Is now In the
Illinois pcnltentiary. The story has just
been brought out through efforts to OBJ
tain pardon that lt-was not the girl who
did the shooting. While the pair were in
Dodge City last winter the girl attracted
considerable attention by her odd ap,
pearance, but probably not many who
saw her thought at the time the little
hobo In blue overallS and coat four or five
sizes too large was woman.

Peddler Law.

1t is not yet two months since the legis-
lature adjourned; but the Grand Forks
district court has passed on the new ped.
dler's law and has held it good. The case
will be appealed to supreme court, which
will be called to pass upon the constitu-
tionality Of the law. There are a large
number of peddlers in Grand Forks and
the immediate vicinity, and it is a mat
ter of importance to them that the law
be construed. The business men of the
state are very much interested in the
law, also, and it is hoped on all sides that
there is no question as to its constitution
atty. The farmers, too, who often have
their homes invaded by these travelling
nuisances, will be a good deal better of
if the tax imposed upon them is made to
stick. There have been many instances
where peddlers have terrified women
and children that they have found, with.
out their natural protectors on the lonely
prairies, and in the judicial district cases
have occurred where serious assaults
have been committed by peddlers travel
ing in companies upon lonely household

him rs a surprise and which he says
will aid him very materially in ex-

legacy gift by Mrs. Mary E. Hyer of
New York, a devout church woman
who was always DESTROYS Of giving
practical assistance to the home mis-

SOME people are coming to the
conclusion that the'Elkins law was
an unfortunate thing for those who
had been in the habit of riding on
railroad passes. The 500 road
recently addressed a circular let
ter to all legislative members,
state officials and all others fortu-
nate enough to be in possession
of passes, to return the same at
their earliest convenience, as the
Elkins lawmakes it a misdemeanor
punishable by a heavy fine, to is
sue passes of this kind. The most
of the N. P. passes issued this
year expired by limitation about
the middle of March. The fell
lows who tried and failed to get
passes this year will feel better
now.

ALASKA'S NEW ZINES,

The recent report of expert miners in
Alaska confirm the former reports of the
discovery OF a new silver mine in the
Valdes district, also of finding of several
mountains of tin I5omiles distant, making
this season of discoveries the greatest
Alaska has ever known. Among family
remedies the greatest discovery was made
about fifty years ago when Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters was first introduced. 1t
is a specific remedy for such ailments, as
loss of appetite, dizziness, belching indi-
gestion, dyspepsia, constipated bowels,
or b~iliousness often effecting a cure when
other remedies have failed. If you arc
weak and sickly try a bottle of the Bitters.
1t will restore you to robust health by
strengthening the entire system. The
genuine is for sale by all druggists.

never runs less than 100 per cent and as
