an artillery officer at Port Arthur,
dated April 20, that GeneralStoessel,

then daily expecting the cutting of
OF his communications.
The officer reported that every.
thing was ready to withstand asiege
and expressed surprise at the fact
that the enemy had delayed so long
He said the fortress was practically
impregnable, adding that there was
triple row OF forts around the Port
Arthur glacis, each position being
fronted by a moat with hedge oil
barbed wire beyond with bomb
proofs behind all the batteries. The
officer further declared that they had
plenty OF supplies and ammunition
and that the garrison was in excel
lent spirits and confident OF being
able to hold Tor nine months or
year against any number of the enc
my, even il they possessed siege guns
General Kuropatkin offered Gener

latter declined them, saying he hat
enough men and did not care to rul
the risk OF an epidemic as the result
of overcrowding.

of an Omelet.

st. Louis people in Paris are protest.
ing in letters TO the newspapers
against Jules Huret's stories about
their city. In recent letter to the
Figaro he wrote that on ordering
poached eggs at St. Louis hotel he
received at the end of half an hour
an enormous dish containing not only
eggs, but fish. chops and vegetables
in fact, an entire meal, even to cheese.
The name of the hotel is demanded.
Huret also writes: ION arriving at
St. Louis learned that all the horses
had been monopolized during three
days for fetes given in honor OF
Roosevelt. During this time there was
no interment and from so to 100
corpses waited on ice until horses were
ready to conduct them to the cemetery.
However. | descended from the
train with pleasure. knowing that the
city was founded by the French in 1764
and that my compatriots built fac
tory, although in 1904, when Napoleon
coded Louisiana. ST. Louis had only
900 inhabitants.
"Thus realizing that | was arriving
in a French city. my melancholy dis
appeared. l was not disappointed,
for there | met real Parisians and
Parisiennos, among them NJ. Lecoewn,
a great contractor, and his beautifur

The Creation.
BY KENNETH BALDWIN.

The first OF Genesis is history OF
the earth's stages Of development
and preparation for the habitation
OF mankind. 1t is divided into days
or periods as follows:
First. God created Heaven and
earth, which contained no life or
light. He created light, which He
called DAY" aud divided it from
darkness, which He called, Might"
Second. God created armament
and called it Heaven"
Third. He gathered the waters to-
gsther aud called them Seas" and
the dry land. He called Earth, "
which, at His command, produced
vegetation-grass, herbs yielding
seed and trees yielding fruit.
Fourth. God GRATED lights in the
heavens TO divide days and nights
and for signs, seasons, days and
years. He made the sun, moon and
stars.
Fifth. God created animal life in
the waters and fowls in the air, bless.
ing them and causing them to multi.
ply abundantly.
Sixth. He created beasts Of the
earth, cattle and every creeping
thing; then made man in His OWL
likeness, blessed him and gave hin
governing authority over all created
life.
Seventh. God rested from the
work OF Creation and blessed ant
sanctified the seventh day.

Gibe, aged IA, of Findlay, snored
herself to death.

They amused Themselves in thii

found Mary dead. Mary had beer

MOTHER'S FRIEND

makes childbirth easy by preparing the
system for parturition and thus shortening
labor. The painful ordeal is robbed Of its
terrors, and the danger lessened to both
mother and child; the time of confinement
is shortened, the mother rested, and child
fully developed, strong and healthy.
Morning sickness, or nausea arising
from pregnancy, is prevented by Its use.
As pregnancy advances, the breasts en-
large, become swollen and hard. Long
before the child is born, they are prepar-
ing for the secretion Of milk. 1t is import
ant that they receive early attention.
Mothers Friend softens the skin and
facilitates the secretion Of Life Fluid.
Undeveloped breasts, hard-caked shortly
after delivery, are the result Of nom
treatment, and likely to eliminate In
Mammary Abscess, from which 90 many
suffer excruciating pain and are left with
these organs permanently impaired.

Mr.. A. G. Schulz, prominent
attorney of Sioux City who owns a
large amount of land in the CEN
tral part of this state, is quoted by
the Huron Huronite as follows:
II own great deal of land in
South Dakota, which | purchased
several years ago and which | in
tend to hold and improve as fast
as possible. l do not make a prac-
tice of selling my land, but when a
man pays me my price | generally
accommodate him. However | in
tend to hold the most Of my land
for a future advance and [ am Of
the opinion that these very lands
that are selling today for $40 to SIS
per acre will in the course of the
next ten years advance to from $5C
to SIS per acre. The soil is just
as good as in the southern part OF
the state where land is being sold
at the above prices, and the crops
are equally as good. think South
Dakota is the banner state of the
union and I have great confidence
in it and think a man can make
more money by investing in Soutl
Dakota lands now than in any 9th

If Mitchell succeeds in securing
the capital, thus putting the state
seal of approval upon removing
public inatitutions, the state Uni
yersity would look we'll Oh the plat
of ground in Huron set aside for
Capital purposes in 1881. Why
not?
Why is it that the capital has
never been set on that plat of
ground in Huron? Is it because
the people of Huron have enter
tanned conscientious scruples a.
gainst "putting the state seal of ap-
proval upon removing public in
stitutions % If we mistake not
that argument was never advanced
by the Huronite or by any citizen
of Huron until after that city had
been defeated in its multifarious
attempts to get the capital, yet
the argument will apply to remov-
al to Huron just as we'll as to
Mitchell. Huron as a location
would be preferable to Pierre, yet
Mitchell is more accessible than
Huron, having both of the great
railroad systems of the state while
Huron has but one of them, and it
is nearer to the center of popula-
tion than Huron.

lessness experienced at that place
during the registration was dis

fault of the town authorities who
