WILSON DREW FOUR YEARS.
Foreer Is Sentenced to the South
Dakota Pcnitentiary.

Sioux Falls, s. D., : Nov. 29.-Four
years in the penitentiary is the sen.
tence imposed upon j. H. Wilson, an ex-
pert forger who has been in the county
Jail in this city for some time, and who
is wanted by the authorities of Min
neapolis, Sioux City, Dubuque and other
places.
Wilson pleaded guilty to the charge of
assault with dangerous weapon, and
it was upon this charge that he was SEN
fenced. Two other charges still stand
against him here, that of forgery and
for attempting to break Jail.
Wilson is one of the most desperate
criminals with whom the local authori-
ties have had to deal Just after he had
been sentenced to the penitentiary, Ry-
an, another desperate prisoner, was ar
raigned on the same charge-that of
assault with a dangerous weapon-to
which he entered plea of not guilty.
As the two men resumed their seats
Wilson was heard to say to Ryan:
cts wonder I didn't get the other
spot and make it fve.'
Then, noticing that Deputy Sheriff
Voelsch, who is a German, was close be-
hind him, Wilson raised his voice and
said:
"Just wait till get up to the pen. I'll
kill half dozen Dutchmen up there"
When arrested here last summer Will
son was accompanied by woman, who
was also arrested and transferred to the
authorities at Mankato, Mimi. She re-
Gently pleaded guilty at that place to
the charge of forgery and was sentenced
to prison.
During the time he was in the county
Jail, Wilson kept the officers in con-
slant turmoil. When originally arrested
last summer he escaped from deputy
sheriff by jumping out of a third story
window in the Cataract hotel to a roof
below, from which he made his way to
the ground.
1t was several weeks before he was
officers at Dell Rapids final
ly locating him at that place. He was
then lodged in the county jail in this
city, and it was not long before he and
Ryan took advantage of an opportunity
to make their escape. Wilson struck
Deputy Sheriff Crooks on the head with
a piece of gaspipe, inflicting a serious
wound.
1t was for this that the charge of as
sault with dangerous weapon was lodg-
ed against him, and for which he will
serve term of four years. Both pris-
oners were recaptured after an exciting
chase.

NERVE PILLS.

The world is full of women whose
daily life is one long struggle against
diseases peculiar to their sex-whose
days and nights are full of quiet, pa
tient suffering. The head of the seat of
pain and pressure-the result of nerve
depression and physical weakness
brought on by uterine or ovarian trou-
ble-the nerves on inclined to
laugh or cry at anything ever
present dragging in the back, hips and
limbs-a feeling of utter weariness-las-
situde and dependency. To these peo-
pie DIR. A. w. Chase's Nerve Pills are of
incompatible value, having as they do
the power to rebuild, to reinvigorate and
resupply every organ, every nerve, every
muscle with the last energy, and to in
sure a complete return to health,
strength and vigor again.
Mrs. John Bailey of Jackson St., Penn
Yam, N. Y, says:

Nerve Pills were a great nerve medi-

box. My nerves were very weak-I
lacked ambition and strength and my
heart action was very weak. used the
pills as directed and they made my
nerves quiet and steady-the heart ac-

altogether like another person. 1 think

All of Next Week.
OWN SPECIAL TRAIN

The great Mundy shows which will
be the main feature of the Druids'
Jahr Markt, all next week will arrive
over the c., c. & l.. railway some
| time tomorrow evening, and all will
| be nreadiness for the opening on
the new show grounds, corner South
Eighth and H streets long before the
hour set for the opening of the main
gate. Perhaps the following article
clipped from the Racine Times OF
Tuesday, August 80, will convey as
good an idea of the greatness and
moral standing of Colonel Mundy's
aggregation as could be found just
new:
"That the Red Men of Racine are
wide awake and capable of doing
things as they should be done was
freely demonstrated last evening
when the Mundy Carnival company,
which was brought to this city under
their auspices, opened for business.
"The best thing that can be said
of the show is that, although it was
widely advertised, and "boosted' to
the skies by the local management,
the attraction. unlike the majority
of its kind, is everything that is
claimed for it and more. There is
mot one advertised feature that is
not produced and the manner in
which the entire show is conducted
has certainly won the hearts of the
amusement loving people OF the Belle
City.
although the carnival company
arrived in the city too late to get all
of their attractions in running order
for last nights performance, several
of the more prominent attractions
were open and the immense crowds
that attended We're to a man more
than satisfied and pleased with the
entertainments offered by the great
Mundy shows. At O'Clock Monu-
! ment Square was packed with an
eager throng. When the doors to the
animal show and beautiful Lolita
were thrown open, crowds surged
> around the ticket offices and the
agents were for time wholly unable
to meet the demands for tickets. Sc
, great was the throng that street cars
wereb locked for several minutes
while the passing of teams was abso-
lutely prohibited by the good natured
crowd. All of the shows were open
this afternoon and the Red Men 's
carnival is now in full blast and will
continue so all week with perform
ances every afternoon and evening.
..Of the individual attractions to
: be seen at the Red Mems carnival
probably the one that caught the
fancy of the crowd nthe opening
