For the past two years Rev. Ecker

Bar list church in a manne accepts
abie to the members OF the church
and congregation. Recently he re-
ceiVed a call to the pastorate OF tle
Baptist church at McCook, Neb..
and after looking over the church

church people here OF his action a
unanimous resolution was adopted
asking Mr.. Burton to reconsider his

Sunday morning and evening Mr..
Burton spoke to the members OF the
church as his closing efforts as

interesting and in the evening there

the church and his W ife's efforts
have had much to do with their
success.
Saturday evening the members OF
the church met in the church parlors
for a farewell reception to Rev. and
Mis-. Burton. and aside from the fact
that the departure Of the couple
saddened the affair, there was much
good feeling shown between The
pastor and his took. Some time
was spent in a social way and hight
refreshments we're served. a day OF
two before a subscription paper

OF the church and everyone in til,

The WATER CURE WORKS
lit Has Been Administered to a Large
Number of Hobocs Who Have
Infested Mitchell.

OF recent date there have not been
so many tramps hanging around the
depot and iltering their way up
town, according to the statement of
the night policemen. A short time
ago they adopted the practice of adj
ministering the water cure as the
best method to keep away members
of the profession, and it has been
quite successful. This water cure is
not the same hat the soldiers adj
ministered to the Filipinos during
the Spanish war, but it seems to be
just as effective. A bunch of tramps
is located and the officers get them
in a corner inc douse them with
water. 1t usually takes three to sfx
pals to make them move, but eventu-
ally they get the suggestion soaked
into them that their presence is not
very desirable. Occasionally n or
two are stood up in the corner and
the water is poured down their shirt
asked for.
A little while ago there was a
bunch Of five or six Of the hoboes
who had been giving the officers
quite a good deal of trouble and they
refused to leave town, notwithstand-
ing all kinds of inducements and
threats were handed out to them.
One night the officers discovered
that the bunch were located down
near the railroad track in an unoc-
cupied house and they went after
the crowd. They opened the door
softly and had with them four or
five buckets of water which were
placed conveniently near. The Off
GERS flashed their electric glims on
the bunch and then gave them a
couple of buckets of the cold fluid,
and at the same time they discharged
, their revolvers. Well, it created
quite a good deal Of CONSERVATION
, among the tramps. The got up and
i went to fighting each other, thinking
] that they were being held up. An
other dose of water and a discharge
of the revolvers started the whole
y bunch through the windows, taking
l glass and sash with them, and they
departed for parts unknown. At
T least nothing that had their appear
o ance has shown up around Mitchell.

AROUND The CORN PALACE

The corr fields have commenced
to yield their ears for decoration of
the building, and there is no need
to fear that there will not be sut1i-
Gent corr to cover the big structure
and then have plenty left to show the
eastern people when they come out
the latter part of the month.
Much of the work which has been
left to the last in previous years
is done at the present time, and there
will be room to spare with the last
days.
The doubtful ones have already
commenced to question DR.. Dundas
and want to know if the decorations
will be completed in time for the
opening of the palace. The doctor
usually reaches for an a of corn
for a reply. There neye has been a
failure to have the building in read
mess in past years and there is no
reason for being behind this year
as just early a start was made on the
work.
County Commissioner Nash has
commenced to gather W the pro-
ducts for the exhibition Of Dawson
county in the agricultural display. If
you have anything exceptionally good
the commissioner would be glad to
know about it. Dawson county
wants to make a good showing. The
commissioners appropriated sufficient
money to make a fine exhibit.
Col. Robe is getting into his work
of decorating with his old time vigol
and when he gets the work done he
ment a very handsome and attractive
affair. The colonel stands at the
head of his profession in this clas'
of decorating and for the tenth sue
cessive time he has commenced hi
work on this building. We hope tn
colonel will live forever for then W
!, will always have somebody to do th
!, corn palace decorating. There ma
). be some such other individual in th
, world but we don't know where t
!, find him.

Representative Gillespie
Shows Inconsistency.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov q
(SpeciaD Oscar w. Gillespie, of
Texas is the first Democrat reaching
Washington to give intimation that
the Administration is to be attacked
for its action in the financial furry.
He declared that the aid rendered by
Secretary Cortelyou went to the re-
lief of Wall Street only, Disseminated
against the rest of the country, and
was an extraordinary exposure of the
weakness of the Republican financial
policy.

FORSOOK HUSBAND
FOR AN AFFINITY

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. l.
(SpeciaD Justice NJ. Davis, who is
trying the divorce of Joseph Boggia-
no against his wife, Bella, in the Su-
preme Court, was surprised when
in the examination of Mrs. Boggaino
she told the Justice that she loved
a sculptor named Bertilo, and the CO.
respondent in the case.
why do you not live with your
husband?' inquired Justice Davis.
Because | love the other man bet
ter was the reply.
In reply to questions Mrs. Boggia-
no said that she told her husband
she was going to leave him, and that
he did not appear angry. She sup
posed she would marry Bartoli if she
is divorced from her husband, she
said.
In closing the case Judge Davis
said:
81 suppose the husband is entitled
to a divorce on the evidence | have
heard, but the other phase of this
case is interesting Here is a wo-
man who because she loves another
man better than her husband leaves
her husband and goes to live with
this other man. She seems to regard
if as an eminpntIv prODer thing to do.
l do not think that this case is indi-
cative of any general state of immor-
atty in this city, but that rather it is
an isolated instance"

No Aid to Producers

Think of another phase of the
situation: Millions poured into the
vaults of the banks to relieve the
stock market, and we are told stocks
and bonds are going up, while the
farmer is forced to put his products
upon the market with the prices fall
ing steadily-driven to sacrifice, when
but for the Wall street panic they
would be selling their stuff at good
profits. The honest producing classes
can get no relief.
Thirty millions more are suddenly
given to the banks of New York by
the Government Did those banks re-
lieYe the situation all over the coun-
try? Certainly not. The banks of
entire sections are closing, being Civ
en- holidays by Governors of States
and Territories, and money is with
held from cotton, wheat, the tobacco
farmers and live stock raisers, sim
ply because no relief can be had from
New York.

stock of paints, wagons and farm i'm
plements, has used Doan's Ointment,
and has found it thoroughly reliable,
as is always the case Speaking of
his experience with this remedy, he
says: Il learned the virtues of
Doan's Ointment by using it for &c
zema, and itching hemorrhoids, from
which l had been a sufferer for many
years. It was a constant torment, day
and night, and l could find no relief.
1t is impossible for me to describe
my sufferings. I tried all kinds of
ointments and salyes, but nothing had
any appreciate effect until | got
Doan's Ointment and began using it.
1t was more as an experiment than
anything else, and / had no faith
