But in most cases, they're wrong;
because Dyspepsia is so much more
common than Consumption
And Dyspepsia causes chronic
Cough, just like Consumption.
The dyspeptic cough. it IS we'll to re-

No need to be alarmed about it, I'M

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
result Of the most thorough investiga-

cure Of Indigestion, that has ever been
attempted.
They have solved a problem. the an

NEWsY A NOTES.

Owing TO the cold weather, work on
the embankment OF the dam of the
Belle Fourche s. ID. irrigation project
has been discontinued and probably will
mo- be taken up again before April.
The total progress on this embankment
TO date is $4,000 cubic yards. The men
employed by different contractors, as
well as those under the direct super
vision Of the government engineers,
have been placed on canal excavation,
finishing structures, etc as soon as
u~nfavorable weather made concrete and
embankment work impossible. In many
respects this is one Of the most remark
able irrigation projects yet undertaken
by the government. 1t involves the
construction OF one of the greatest earth
dams in the world, n structure over one
mile long, 100 feet high in the highest
places, and 20 feet wide on top. Its
cubIcal contents will be nearly half
those of the pyramid of Cheops, which
is estimated to have occupied 900 years
in construction The Belle Fourche
dam will be completed in less than one
year. This dam will create Il reservoir
sixty feet deep, with a water surface of
abont 1900 acres when full. More than
one thousand new farms will be created
by this project in a valley where the
principal project has been low-grade
range cattle, and the value of lands
which now ranges from s. to $40 an acre
will be increased to SIS and upwards.
With assured forage crops the ranch
men can greatly increase their herds,
and with winter feed the gu ility Of the
stock will be materially improved and
the prices correspondingly better. Small
grains. such as oats, wheat, rye and
barley, and such fruits as apples, pears,
plums, cherries and email fruits can be
raised. Sugar beets will also probably
prove q profitable crop. The demand
for farm and garden products is great on
account of the proximity of the mining
regions of the Black Hills. The mining
industry will undoubtedly undergo a
fresh boom, as food supplies at a reason
able price and increased transportation
facilities make the working of low-grade
ore profitable.
A new candidate for appointment TO
the position oil adjutant general of the
national guard of South Dakota has
appeared in the field in the person of
Capt b ID. l. Dudley of Canistota, who
has a wide acquaintance throughout
the state, especially in G.. A. r. circles.
Petitions urging that he be appointed

adjutant general are being circulated
among a number of the G.. A. r. posts
Of the state and these will before Jan. ]
be forwarded to Coe l. Crawford, gov
ernor elect, who may appoint ar adju-
tant general soon after he assumes the
duties OF governor early in the coming
year. Captain Dudley is an insurgenr
and hopes TO win from G. II. Englesby,
the present incumbent, on this score.
The corr industry in South Dakota,
which has been growing steadily for ten
or twelve years, the corn belt extending
with each succeeding year, will be given
a great impetus by means Of the corn
show which will be held in Mitchell
Dec IL, 10 aud 20. This enterprise was
started last fall by A. E. Chamberlain
and Fl. O Warner, both of whom are
deeply interested in the farmers insti-
tutes under state direction. Both have
taken a strong interest in working up
enthusiasm among the farmers OF the
state in making an exhibit and encour-
ageing their attendance at the show to
hear the corn lectures which will be
given. These lectures will be given by
Professor A. N. Hume OF the depart
ment Of corn of Illinois Agricultural
College, and Professor j.. S. Cole of
Brookings Agricultural College.
Postmaster Nipple, of Pierre, who is
also custodian of about 100000 worth
of government property at the new pub
lie building, according to his tell, iur
nishes the following interesting bit of
news ill his paper, the Capital-Journal,
which WI take pleasure in copying:
The postoffice receipts for November
were 81 200 compared to $760 last Novem-
Der. This means another month of
increase with So per cent to the good.
The Pierre office has for five months
shown a decided increase, so much so
that the business has been nearly double
any corresponding period. The capital
campaign year showed increased
receipts over former years, but that was
attributed to one source only. AT pres
ent the increase means new people and
new life in the city.
The officers of the state Anti. Saloon
league, representatives Of the w. @. T..
U. and Of the prohibition party were in
session in Mitchell concerning the for
nation of the option bill, as an amend
ment to the present state liquor law.
The three organizations will unite their
forces to secure the passage OF snch an
enactment. The bill will provide that
entire counties shall vote upon the
question of license, and that if a
majority is opposed to license, no
license shall be granted within any city
or town in such county, regardless of
the sentiment In such locality.

The annual meeting of the Black Hills

president, Henry Schnitzel of the Golden
Reward; treasurer, J v. N. Dorr of the
Lundberg Dorr mill and of the Mogul;

Gov. Elrod has re ceived a letter from
Deadwood asking him to call upon the
people of the state TO assist in the cloth

Meade for the winter. There are sew
eral hundred women and children in the
party, ali in need Of clothing to keep
them from suffering this winter, and
charitable people of the Black Hills are
attempting to meet this want. but feel
that the people of the eastern part of
the state should be given an opportunity
to assist in the work if they care to do so.

FLOWERS REPLACE SHEDS
Philadelphia Market Place, Built Be-

Philadelphia Inquirer.

BY an ordinance Of the councils,
which wetn into effect Jan. l, the
dilapidated market sheds on cambridge
street, from Third to Fifth street,
which were erected prior to the Revo-
lutionary War, will shortly be RACED to
the ground. The vacated plots will be
fitted up in a. manner that will be an
ornament to the neighborhood.
At the solicitation Of the tenants Of
the stalls, who made an appeal to
Director Potter for more time, saying
that they had been unable to find &C
commodations in the neighborhood at
hits season of the year, operations on
tearing down the western section will
be postponed until April /. During tho
Revolutionary war, when the British
occupied the city, the sheds were used
as stables for cavalry horses. The only
remaining market sheds in the city are
those on Second street, between Poplar
street and Paramount avenue, and be-
tween Pine and Lombard. .ts hi ..
A suggestion to. convert, the Balm
bridge street sheds into, backgrounds
for children was considered by Director
Potter, but rejected because Of the de-
structiveness evinced by the small boys
who live in the neighborhood. The
$4,000 appropriated for the improve
ment of the sites will be spent in con-
verting the places into floral beds,
which will be surrounded by a stone
coping and ornamental iron fence.

charge more for travel over their lines
than other roads, except, perhaps, that
they are allowed to do it. In Ohio and
Pennsylvania similar campaigns are be-
ing waged by the U. O. T. with pros
pect Of early success.
Another reform that seeks to do
away with a discrimination is the
amendment Of the national bankruptcy
law to include travelling and city
statesmen among preferred creditors.
The justice Of this is obvious, espe-
cial1y in the case Of travelling men,
Being away from home they are not in
a position to protect their interests in
the case of the failure Of house that
employs them. 1t sometimes happens
too that their salary is in the posses
sion of the firm for weeks and months
at time, pending settlement at the
end Of a trip. The Minneapolis coun-
ellis have written to Congressman
Fletcher, urging him to support the bill
introduced by Representative E. L..
Taylor from the Fourteenth Ohio dis
trict and now before congress. Sim
liar action is being taken by u. G.. T..
councils all over the country.
At Aberdeen, s. D., every Sunday
afternoon at the Commercial club a

advantage in other cities, especially
those at which travelling men make a

the road.
Travelling men in the last Minnesota
election showed that they can become
a power thru united action, and as a
result there is more Of tendency to
take heed whenever they get together
and announce what they want in the
way Of legislation. Consequently it
may be expected that there will be laws
that will be operative passed by the
next legislature. The travelling mon
can: make their influence felt in other
directions and are waking up to the
fact, too.
