Sheriff Garner was in town Tues
day on bis way to Sioux City fol-
the purpose Of getting two more
men who were held under arrest
charged with being implicated in
the Springfield Bank robbery. II
appears that last Friday a detec.
tive who has been working on the
case, in going north from Scotland
on the train got his eye on two
suspicious looking characters who
were ticketed for Parkston. In
stead of going to that place how
eve they slipped off the train ut
Trip. AS Trip was the place
where the stolen team was found
the next morning after the robbery
this act strengthened the SUSPECT
ons Of the detective, so the follow
ing morning he came back from
Mitchell on the early train. At
Trip the same fellows boarded
the train for Sioux City. The
detective wired the officers at Sioux
City to meet him at the depot, and
when he reached that place, in
company with the officers, followed
the fellows to q saloon. The sa-
loon was then surrounded and
when the fellows came out they
we're arrested. They had in their
possession a sack containing a
large quantity of small coins done
:upin wrappers identical to those
used by the Springfield Bank. It
is practically certain that this
money had been buried near Tripp
since the night Of the robbery, and
that these fellows had been there TO
secure it. This makes six Of the
gang supposed to have been in the
Springfield deal now under arrest.
Two were taken at Aberdeen
and are now in the jail at
Tyndall two were arrested at
Ponca, Neb. last week, and two now
in custody at Sioux City. One
other, supposed to have been with
the gang escaped when the arrests
were made at Ponca and is still at
liberty.

Making railroad rates is like playing
a game of checkers or chess. Com
munitles 10 be benefited, producers.
manufacturers or shippers to be aided
represent the pieces used. Every poSsi-
bic move is studied for ITS effect on the
general result by skilled traffic mama
gers. y false move in the making of
freight rates may mean the ruin of Il
city, of Il great manufacturing interest,
of an agricultural community. Rail
roads strive to build up all these so
that each may have an equal chance III
the sharp competition of business. So
sensitive 10 this rivalry are the raii-
roads that in order 20 build up business
along their lines they frequently allow
the shipper TO practically dictate rates.
Rate making has been matter of de-
velopment; Of mutual concessions for
mutual benefit. That IS why the rail
roads of the United States have volun-
tarily made freight rates so much lower
in this country than they are on the
government-owned and operated rail
ways Of Europe and Australia that
they are now the lowest transportation
rates in the world.

SAYS MEN CAN LIVE FOREVER.
English Lecturer Tells How T. May
Be Done.

Treating lightly the habit of dying
to which men have been slaves for
thousands of years, Henry Gaze of
London told a small company of per-
sons gathered in Odd Fellows Tenn
pie, Philadelphia, that they could live
forever if they would just apply
their minds to the effort.

titled How to Live Forever" Anxious

lasting physical life, he is making a

diet and fegenerative life" are the
first principles of Gazes scheme. He
holds up perpetual youth as being Sc
easy of attainment that one is fool
ish to grow old.
If one is old he can regain youth,
and if he doesn't like his body he
can, by giving thought to the matter,
transform it into any mold of form
and cast of features that he desires.
Thus. he can get rid of any defects
that happen TO mar his beauty or at
tractiveness.
Gaze would get rid of the death of
the body by dying little by little, an
atomic or ''up-to-date" death, as he
described it, while the "rejuvenating
diet" and "regenerative life" get in
their work by building up the body;
replacing the dead atoms, as they are
given off, with new ones.
Control over the subconscious soul
that governs the rebuilding of life is
all that is necessary.

Many women long for child to bless

bility or displacement of the female
organs they are barren.
Preparation for healthy maternity is
accomplished by Lydia e. PinlIham's

than by any other medicine, because it
gives tone and strength to tho entire

A woman who is in { BOD physical
