MIssLOTzE KILLEDHERCHUM
Duel Over Love Affair Hinted Ait,
But Denied.
Geoicsy Class at vermnIicn, S. b.
Were in Camp Target Prac-
lice, Say Friends.

Vermili0n S. D.-As the result of d
mysterious shooting affair which oc-
Cured in the dense woods across the
Missouri River from here, Miss Lillian
Young. daughter Of State Senator War
rem Young, is dead at Sioux City, and
Miss Hazel Lotze, daughter Of G. A.
Lotze, of this city, who fred the fatal
shot, is dangerously i'll from prostra-
ton.
Both young women have been stu
dents at the State university here. It
was twenty -four hours after the shoot
ing occurred that those who saw il
were induced to talk about it. They all
told the same story-that it was acct
dental
In the meantime il had been asserted
very positively that the young women
had fought a duel to settle some differ
ences over love affairs This story il
forcibly denied by everybody interest
ed, but it continues to be repeated.
Only three besides the two young
women saw the shooting. The univer
sity authorities are deeply grieved over
the matter, and are anxious that no
more be said about it, so it is likely
there will be no further investigation.
1t was jolly crowd of students,
composing the class in geology, that
boarded the ferry aud crossed to the
Nebraska side, in company with Pro.
lessor e. G. Perisso, to study rock for
nation.
The camp was pitched in pretty
spot, and while the main body of stu
dents prepared the meal few others
strolled off into the woods These were
Miss Young, Miss Lotze, Miss Lillian
Stafford, of Flandreau, S. D.. daughter
of regent of the university; Thomas
Scroggs, of Beresford, S. D.. and Clar-
ence H. Nee, of Centreville, s. d.
After awhile those in the camp heard
number of shots and a scream. Run
ming to the scene they found Miss
Young on the ground with bullet
wound in her side. She was hurriedly
taken to Vermillion and then to Sioux
City, where an operation was per-
formed, which revealed that the bullet
had penetrated the intestines.
The students said the party had been
shooting, using tree as a target, with
80 calibre revolver owned by Nee
Several shots had been fired and it
came Miss Lotze's turn TO try the pis-
tol.
She fred twice and presumably
thought the cartridges had all been ex-
ploded. At all events she turned to-
ward Miss Young, who was a few
yards away picking vlolets, and pulled
the trigger.
Miss Young fell with cry Of pain.
She tried to walk, but fell, and then
she was put on an improyised stretcher
and carried to the ferry.
When it was announced that Miss
Young was dead there were few dry
eyes among the students, as she was
exceedingly popular.

What shallIDo9 p.

That Is the problem which frequently
confIonts everyone especially parents
with small children. A slight Illness
treated at once often saves long
period of sickness and expense-some-
times prevents death. The trouble is
that so few people can think on the In
slant what treatment to apply, even If
they have the knowledge necessary to
recognize the disease and know what
simple remedies are best. To meet t is
want at small expense the Book Pub
fishing House, 1874 Leonard street. New
York City, is sending postpaid a doctor
book on receipt OF sixty cents In
stamps. The book is Illustrated, con-
tains sos pages, explains symptoms,
causes and simple means of overcoming
ordinary illnesses. 1t was written by
the eminent ]. Hamilton Ayres, A. NJ,
M. D. 1t is volume which should be
in every household, as DO one, can tell
what moment he may require the
knowledge 1t contains.

Raifer Than We Feel.

President King, of Oberlin College,
speaks on the duty of acting better
than we feel: zone may be feeling, at
given time, without courage and far
from cheerful" he says. "This, at
least, he can do: He can take good
long breath, and stiffen his backbone.
and put on the appearance of cheer
and courage, and SO doing he is far
more apt to become cheerful and cour-
ageous. There are two sorts of selves
in you, a lower and higher. You can
be true to your higher self, or you can
be true to your lower self. But you
are bound to be true to your higher
self. And. one of the sensible, helpful
ways to get the feelings you think
you ought to have is to act in the line
Of them. 1t is to no ones credit to
act as badly as he feels He is rather
bound often to act much better than
he feels. And so acting, he will be
helped to better feeling"

TRANSFORMATIONS.
Curious Resu Us When Coffes Drinking is
Abandoned.


It is almost as hard for an old coffee
topper to quit the ilse Of coffee as it is
for a whisky or tobacco fend to break
of, except that the coffee user can quit
coffee and t~ke up Postum Food Coffee
without any feeling Of loss of the
morning beverage, for when Postum is
well boiled and served with cream, it is
really better in point Of favor than
most Of the coffee served nowadays.
and to The taste of the coEnoisseur it
is like the flavor of fine Java.
A great transformation takes place
in the body within ten days or two
weeks after coffee is left of snd Pos

that the poison to the nerves has been
discontinued and In It's place is taken a
liquid that contains the most powerful
elements Of nourishment.

San Francisco Solvent.

New York City.-E. II. Hartman ar
rived here, having completed at fifty
nine minutes past o'clock, his record
breaking trip between Oakland and
New York in the unprecedented time
of seventy-one hours and twenty-seven
minutes.
He came back full Of hope as to the
future Of the stricken city. 1t will be
rebuilt. he said. was even now rising
from the ashes, and any sum that was
actually needed. even up to 100000
600, could be raised. The work of per-
manent rehabilitation, however, would
be slow.
Asked about the New York syndicate
which has been organized to raise
$100,000,0O0 for San Francisco, Mr..
Hartman replied:
Il don't know anything about that
movement. believe, though, that
$100,000,000 could be raised for the
stricken city if it was shown that the
money was actually needed It would
not be easy to raise such fund unless
the necessity were demonstrated.
There is no question about the solv-
e4cy Of San Francisco. The per capita
debt there is very small, and even if
the burned district were not rebuilt,
every obligation could be met.
THE food supply is becoming ex-
hausted. They will soon have to draw
on the relief fund. Up to the present
it has been used to re-equip profes,
sional men-lawyers, for instance, who
have lost their libraries. Such men
are not being unfortunately aided,
but all who apply for aid receive 1t to
a reasonable extent. For a long time
100000 or more persons will have to be
fed"

All women work some in their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores,
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject to the same physical
laws all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularify or
suppression, causing backache, ner-
vousness, irritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatigues
of the day. to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing to see a woman
struggling to earn a livelihood or per
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is Sc
tired she can hardly drag about OF
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin Of which is due tc
some arrangement Of the female or
ganism.
Miss +. Orser, of IA Warrenton Street
Boston, tells women how to avoid such
suffering she writes:
