Wichita, Kan, Feb. 17.-Edward III.
Loosely of this city has filed suit in the
district court against the Kansas
city, Mexico & Orient Railway COM
pany and the Kaw Valley Construction
company for $4,000 damages. 1t is
probably the first damage suit for per-

working for the company as con-
ductor in April, 1903, he was thrown
from the top of a box car and badly
injured. The accident occurred at
Carmen, o. T, while switching in the
yards.
Mr.. Loosely lost an eye and was in
sane for a period of several weeks.

KAISER ACCEPTS.
VIII Be Made Ii. d. by University of
Pennsylvania.

Berlin. Feb. 17.-Emperor William
will accept the degree of doctor of
laws from the University of Pennsyl-
vania. 1t will be conferred. upon him
in Absentia, February %, at the same
time that it is bestowed upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Instructions have
been cabled to Baron Won Speck-
Sternburg, the German ambassador, to
represent the emperor. This is the
first instance so far as known in which
a reigning sovereign has taken an
American university degree. Charles
Gusts Harrison provost of the univer-
sity, wrote to Ambassador Tower a
few days ago, saying the university
would be pleased to bestow the degree
of doctor of laws upon the emperor
in recognition of the exchange of
American and German professors. Mr..
Tower had the opportunity of telling
the emperor that the university is one
of the oldest and one of the most re-
spectacle American institutions and
that it had conferred the same degree
July 4, 1888, upon George Washing
ton. The emperor said he appreciated
the distinction and accepted the honor
with pleasure.

A physician puts the query: Have
you never noticed in any large res
taurant at lunch or dinner time the
large number of hearty, vigorous old
men at the tables; men whose ages
run from so to 80 years; many of
them bald and all perhaps gray. but
none of them feeble or senile2
Perhaps the spectacle is so common
as to have escaped your observation
or comment, but nevertheless it is an
object lesson which means something.
K you Will notice what these hearty
old fellows are eating you will observe
that they are not munching bran
crackers nor gingerly picking their

A GREAT MEDICINE
BRINGS HEALTH TO THREE MEM
BEERS OF SAME FAMILY
Cures a Wife's Debility After Malaria,
a Husbands Rheumatism, a
Daughters Nervous Pros


The claim of DR.. Williams Pink
Pills to be a genuine household remedy
is based on the fact that they make
the blood sound and the nerves strong
and so overcome a variety of diseases
IT have recommended DR.. Williams
Pink Pills to many people" said Mrs.
Gossett, because I have seen such
good results, time after time, right in
my own family. There are three of
US who do not need to take anybody's
word on the subject, for own expert
ence in the past ten years has taught
us how well they deserve the praise
given them by so many others.
1T was just about ten years ago
that I first read about Dr. Williams
Pink Pills in a newspaper article
which gave the testimony of some
woman who had been cured by them.
Her symptoms were so much like
mine that 1 thought I would try them,
and I then bought my first box.
st was at that time all run down in
health, was weak, nervous and with
out ambition. I couldn't walk any
distance on account of shortnesS of
breath and palpitation of my heart,
and I had no appetite I had been
dOctoring all summer for malaria and
stomach trouble. Everybody thought
I was going into consumption, as my
mother had died of that disease.
1 am now alive and hearty. I began
to improve as soon as I began to take
them. The first box reused up my
appetite, so I got three more boxes,
and when those had been taken I
was a well woman I always take a
few as a tonic every spring and fall,
and have found them of great bene-
fit just before and after confinement.
Everyone wonders how I keep SO well
and am able to care for my home and
six children without help. DR.. VIII
liamS' Pink Pills explain it.
MY oldest girls health began to fail
when she was about fourteen, as the
school work. She was nervous, COM
planned of sharp pains in her head,
would get deathly sick and have to
leave the school room to get fresh
air to revive her. I gave some pills to
her. She took only a few boxes. but
they cured her troubles and caused
her to develop into a perfect picture
of health. Then my husband took
them for rheumatism and found that
they would cure that too. So you
see we have all got great good from
using them and that is why we rec |
them to Others"
Mrs. Minnie B. Gossett lives at
Tuscarawas Co, Ohio, !
and is well known, as she has resided |
in the same neighborhood for more
than thirteen years. DR.. Williams
Pink Pills are sold by all druggists |
everywhere. They have cured other |
diseases also, such as anaemia, neu- |
ralagia, partial paralysis, irregularities |
and all forms of weakness in women. |
They have also cured the most stub

them to good use and generally is re
spected in the business world for MS
personal qualifications and ability as
he is liked in the social world for his
charm Of manner, good taste, ana un-
bounded liberality in entertainment
To the world generally Hyde is better
known for the magnificence Of his prl-
vate entertainments than for his &C
comp1ishnents as a business man. his
recent costume ball at Sherry's Whlch
is said to have cost him 100000, IS a
sample of the social entertainment of
which he is extremely fond and when
he amply can afford to give when the
Whim strikes him. The world at large
knows him, too, for his featS at COACH
ing, and his unceasing interest in pro-
noting the French language and
French literature in this country. a
work for which he was decorated with
the red ribbon Of the Legion OF Honor
by the French government several
years ago.
Hyde is a Harvard man and has trav-
eled extensively. He was a great stud
interested in French history and the
French language. He carries his love
for things French into his daily life
his clothing. his hats, his shoes, and
even his beard being the Frenchlest
things to be seen in all New York. He
ance Franchise, has founded French
clubs all over the country, personally
promoted tours of celebrated French
lecturers in America, and arranged for
the placing of number of French
students in American universities.
Hyde is believed to be ambitious some
time to represent his country at Paris,
to be thought of in the capacity Of an
AMBASSADOR.

A HINT FOR THE ELK POINT BUSINESS
MEMS ASSOCIATION.

SIN ne place in Iowa are the roads
kept in as good condition as at and
around Eagle Grove. The town OF
Eagle Grove keeps the streets and
roads smoothed after every rain and
thaw with the King road drag, and
have denoted these harrows to the
farming com muaity for many miles
around the town."
The above is taken from the press
dispatches one day this week. The
editor formerly lived in Eagle Grove
and we can truly say that nowhere in
Iowa fifteen and twenty years ago were
then poorer roads than at and near
Eagle Grove. The transformation has
been wrought by the means mentioned
above. Great Improvement on the
roads leading to Elk Point, where the
situation is practically the same as the
vicinity of Eagle Grove, has been made
in the past few years. Our Business
Mems Association could do not hing
better in continuation of this work
another year than to adopt the Eagle
Grove plan which has wrought such
p easing changes there.

ANoRnAL AND NOTABLE CONVERSION

A ANORMAL AND NOTABLE CONVERSION
VIII 9 hamberlain, the SSweet
Singer of the Sioux" in his column in

quietly and modestly announces his
conversion to present day republican
principles. We have long felt that
"Our Will" was somewhat out of place
in the -populisdc ranks, and
gladly welcome him TO the fold OF true
republican reform. Mr.. Chamberlain
has twice been nominated by the dem
ocrats of this county, once for clerk OF
courts and once for superintendent of
schools. In the campaign following
the COURIER never had one word to
say against his qualifications and he
was defeated both times only because
of the company he was in. Following
are his words on the subject:

Dakota Republican has never b ZEN de1i-
Gated to politics. During this writer's

there we're all the marks of future bud
