STUART, Iowa, Nov. LIST.
From the time my son Dan
lei was born his eyes watered,
con inually flowing over his
cheeks and blurring his sight.
When out of doors in the
winter, his cheeks would near
~ freeze and it was almost
impossible for him to attend
school or do anything that
required much use of the eyes
l wanted to have his eyes
cured long before I did, but
think the eye to delicate an
organ to trust everybody with
treating it. DIR. Weber had
so successfully treated so
many in my neighborhood,
that 1 decided to have him
treat Daniels eyes. DIR
Weber examined them and
found he had been born with
out tear ducts and that he
would have to form artificial
ones. This looked almost
impossible to me, but assur-
ing me that he would not in
jure the sight, I had the DR.
proceed. So successful was
he that the trouble is now
entirely cured and the tears
flow into the new ducts as
we'll as any natural ones and
his eyey do not water even in
the coolest weather.
Yours respectfully,
JOHN O'BRIEN.

LOST IN THE BAD LANDS.
THRILLING EXPERIENCE OF TWO
HOMESTEAD SEEKERS.
NARROWLY ESCAPED DEATH

For More Than Thlrty.six Hours They
Wandered In the Locality Known as
Hell, With the Fires Burned Out"
Finally Found Narrow Path.
A report from Presho, s. d., says
that two Iowa men, Il. r. Bradshaw,
aged 90, and John Turpin, aged Go,
had a thrilling adventure in the famous
Bad Lands region of western South
Dakota, and narrowly escaped death
by hunger and exposure.
They were searching for homesteads
and set out on foot from the little
frontier town of Kadoka with the in.
tention of walking through to Dakota
City, another little frontier settlement
and locating there. During the after
noon of the day they set out the sky
became overcast with clouds. They
were unable to see the sun and lost
their way.
In attempting to guide themselves
by some bad land mounds they wan
dered into the bad lands proper and
were unable to find their way out of
that strange region. which years ago
was referred to by Gen. Alfred Sully,
the veteran Indian fighter, as "hell,
with the fires burned out"
The two weary and alarmed men
finally reached deserted and par
TALLY demolished cabin, where they
took refuge. There they remained
throughout the night, the following
day and the next night, with nothing
to eat but one small bird they sue
ceeded in shooting. They saw some
range cattle grazing in the vicinity,
and in the effort to escape death by
starvation they endeavored to shoot
one of the animals.
But the wild range cattle were SO
"skery" that 1t was found impossible
to get near enough to any OF them to
shoot and kill them. Had they been
mounted 1t would have been an easy
matter to have approached the ami
mails, which are accustomed to seeing
cowboys on horseback, but readily
take alarm when approached by any
one on foot.
On the third day of their involunta'
ry Imprisonment the two old men
again made an effort to find their
way out of the bad lands, and this
time they succeeded in finding mar
row path which is the only means OF
exit from that part of the bad lands
Had they not discovered the path by
the merest chance they would have
persisted. After weary journey they
finally reached civilization once more
more dead than alive. but thankful
to have escaped with their lives.

Tiers great grief, successfully kept
silent his own condition.
Since that time the lonely father
and widower his entire family gone,
has suffered much. He is being cared
FOR by Mr.. and Mrs. Theodore Wiley,
Mr.. Wiley having for years been a
trusted and faithful employee in the
coal Office of Mr.. Braasch.
Everything that medicine, friends,
neighbors, comrades of a war can do
is being done for the comfort of this
patient-a patient who has filed
prominent niche in the community
ever since there was Norfolk, but
how long he may survive is by no
means a certainty. Mr.. Braasch is
well-to-do, owning, besides a prosper
GUS coal business, much property in
and around Norfolk.

RANK DISCRIMINATION.
But Nebraska Paper Finds JustifIca.
ton for RAILWAYS Act,


The Stamford, Neb, Post has caught
the Burlington in discriminating be-
tween passengers, but it finds justi-
fication for the act. This is the story
of the Post:
"The passenger train stopped at the
crossing mile west of town yester-
day morning to allow Miss Alma Wei
denhammer, of McCook, to alight
This is rather unusual occurrence,
even on the branch and it caused some
comment. A politician who was in
town telling the boys how to save the
country, evidently thought it indicated
more liberal policy to the Burling-
ton, and he at once prepared to take
advantage Of the new order of things.
He asked that the evening train stop
at farm house between here and Or
leans long enough for him to kiss the
baby and whisper a few confidential
words to the farmers ear, and when
the soulless corporation refused his re-
quest he began to howl in a wierd, dis.
NAL way. He said the jim-dasted rail
road was depriving him of his inalien-
able right of life, liberty and the pur.
suit of happiness. He said it was
rank discrimination and it was. But,
honestly now, would you have any.

jim ROBLEY PASSES THROUGH
NORFOLK IN CUSTODY.
SHERIFF MALcHoW IN CHARGE

The Sheriff Takes His Prisoner
Through the City on the Evening
Train and Has Him In the Cunning
County Jail Before Mronne.
[From Fridays Daily.l
Sheriff Malchow of Cunning county
passed through the city last night hav-
ing in charge James Robley, wanted
In Beemer for crime committed
upon the person of little girl near
that town. The sheriff brought his
prisoner from Wayne on the evening
train and took him directly through
Norfolk, riding on the freight from
Norfolk Junction to West Point, where
the man was lodged in Jail. Robley
appears to be man of fifty years of
age and Is said to have a wife and
family. The charge against him Is
old, the daughter OF Mrs. 2. Gardner,
living short distance from Beemer.
Robley was farm hand employed on
the Gardner farm and last Saturday
afternoon he enticed the little girl to
the barn and committed the crime.
He Immediately made his escape on
foot, with no coat or vest, and was
captured Wednesday evening by the
sheriff Of Wayne county.
There was good deal Of excitement
in Wayne when 1t was known for what
crime Robley had been arrested and
1t would not have taken much to have
had him summarily dealt with before
he left Wayne. The GOODNESS Of the
Wayne sheriff, however, prevented
trouble and the prisoner was safely
taken away yesterday afternoon.

CALLS FOR DEAD SONS.
Pitiful Incident Marks Present Illness

IErnr, Sctrrdau,a DnIlvl


William c. Braasch, old-time pioneer
resident and business man of Norfolk,
is today for the fourteenth day con-

and his friends continue to feel much
apprehension over his condition. At
verses with those about him, but for
the most part he is not just himself
and at these moments, calling as he
does much of the time for the sons
who have only recently left this earth,
his words are deeply pitiful. One
moment the old soldier in his day

he will summon "Will," another dead

MANY SHOWS FORCED QUIT
NEW RAILROAD RULING CAUSES
SMALLER ONES TO QUIT.
PASSES ARE NOT oRrAINARLE

Former Competition for Theatrical
Business and Free Passes Has Ceas-
ed-5ig Factor in unemployment
of Show People.
Failure to secure a certain percent
age of free railroad transportation Is,
say those interested, the biggest fac.
tor in the unemployment of so many
show people of different classes. Hun
dreds of the smaller show companies

Was Heavy Item.
For years it has been customary
for the railroads, in their competition
for theatrical business, to deal very
literally with owners and managers of
companies and the different booking
and producing syndicates. Before jan
uary l, last, all advance agents were
furnished passes, and it was not un-
usual to give the big companies from
three to five free tickets. Of course,
the smaller roads were the heaviest

and the retention of positions by ad
vance representatives have frequently
depended on ability to get the most
out of the railways.
