stated LIST The Southern railway was
found guilty of violating the North
Carolina law forbidding, under $500
penalty, tickets to be sold for more
than ~ cents a mile, was fined
$4,000, and two of its officials were
sent to prison. Then Federal Judge
Pritchard Immediately released the
officials on habeas corpus and in
weighed against the law as "conhs-

WATCH FOR cockLEBuRRs
The Illinois Pest is Finding its Way
Into This Section of the
State.

Just now this section is threatened
with one Of the worst pests that has
ever come to this country from some
outside locality. The days of the
Russian thistle has been about
numbered, bu5 it seems that it is
goiDg..to be succeeded by something
much worse. We have reference to
the oldtime cockleburr and there is
not a farmer from Illinois or Iowa
but what will know what that means
when they get into the corn fields.
Parties living north and south OF
town have Informed the editor that
in those sections the cockleburr is
fast developing into a wide territory
at an alarming pace, and that it will
not be long before its presence will
be every Ahere. Out near the hos
pltal tn re is also a small patch of
the burls which stand ready to
spread over the city by the usual
means of the distribution of the
seed.
In these places where the hurrs are
growing so rapidly and in places
where they are just developing The
farmers should take the earliest
%precaution of Stamping them out.
for there is nothing which will
cause 81 much trouble and dis
turbance as these same old lOckle-
burrs. In the corn fields they grow
quite large and the burrs distribute
themselves with splendid generosity
in the tails Of animals, while the
injury to the ground amounts to
quite a good deal.
One farmer said that if a mad dog
should break loose in the comm unity
everybody would be up in arms to
kill him. He thought that there
was very little difference between
the mad dog and the cockleburr,
when 1T comes to a question of
injury to the soil and human life.

WHAT The KIDNEYS Do
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
Strong and Healthy.

O NAA
All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every
three minutes. The kidneys filter the
blood. They work night and day.
When healthy they remove about
500 grains of impure matter daily,
when unhealthy some part of this
impure matter is left in the blood.
This brings on many disease and
symptoms-pain in the back, head
ache, nervousness, hot, dry skin,
rheumatism, govt, gravel, disorders
OF the eyesight and hearing, dizzi-
ness. irregular heart, debility, drows-
mess, dropsy, deposits in the urine,
etc. But if you keep the filters right
you will have no trouble with your
kidneys.
Paul stowell, living at 4O6, E.
Seventh street, Mitchell, S. D., says:
Il think that my kidney trouble came
OH back in the early sixties while
serving in the army. 1 often suffer-
ed very severely with this complaint.
The first symptoms of the disease,
was a dull ache in my back, directly
over the kidney regions, after which
l soon became stiff and sore. NY
limbs gradually grew so weak, that
L could hardly do my work and at
such times l had to have assistance
to put on my shoes. I also suffered
from dizzy spells, my kidneys were
disordered and my health was grad
ually becoming undermined. Doan's
Kidney Pills were brought to my
attention, and l procured a box at
Diehl & Browns Drug Store. Their
use soon banished the trouble, and 1
have regained my old time strength.

to state that Doan's Kidney Pills

The Hermit Kinodom.

The recent abdication Of the en-
peror Of Korea and the ascension of
the crown prince to the throne have
turned the eyes Of the world toward
the Hermit Kingdom. Since the close
of the Russo-Japanese war the Japa-
nese have been absolute masters of
Korea, and the recent change of rulers
Is attributed to their influence.
The ex-emperor of the Hermit King

forty-four years and was induced to
abdicate under stress Of pressure. His

WILL OPEN NEXT MONDAY
sousa Will Come, the Building Will
Palace Win Open.

Things are shaping themselves for
a most suspicious opening for the
tenth annual corn palace which will
take place next Monday afternoon
and for six days and six nights
Mitchell's gates will be thrown open
to the widest possible extent, that
all who choose might enter and enjoy
the festivities of the week.
The work of decorating the build
ing is being carried on under the
direction of Col. Robe and the
designs and intricate figures that he
is working out day by day will show
in a general way one of the most
beautiful palaces that we have ever
had. Its effect is being heightened
by the very happy combination OF
bright colors which stand out re-
splen1ent in rich designs. In the
gallery the ladies are at work as
usual making something that will
attract the attention Of the visitors
to the palace. The gallery is a never
falling place of beauty and richness
OF color and design, and the ladies
are to be congratulated on their
cleverness and ability to produce
things of such originality and beauty.
Toward the latter part of the week
the agricultural exhibits will be
here. These will include the counties
-
of Hand, Douglas, Stanley, Lyman,
Belle Fourcl.e irrigation exhibit,
Hanson, Lincoln, Jerduld. Dawson
and that from the Bookings agricul-
tural college. The agricultural dis
play fails to interest the entire
crowd OF people who come to Mitch
ell, and this year the Hills country
will be@represented In the exhibit,
which has never before occurred,
but with. the connecting link estab-
lished it is an easy matter for that
part of the state to be represented
In Mitchell's big show.

band of musicians will reach Mitchell
In time for the opening concert of
the afternoon of Monday, and when
the famous march king comes to
town he will W H. for the week,
because everybody knows Sousa and
knows that his band can make the
music which sets the heart atire
with enthusiasm. MI. Sousa and
his band are playing at the Pittsburg
exposition and they come direct.f1om
that engagement to Mitchell. Mr..
Sousa has q new march in store
for the people this year entitled
"Powhatan's Daughters" and it
has played itself into great popularity
in the east. This year Mr.. Sousa
has four brilliant soloists: Miss
Jeanette Powers, violoniste; Miss
Lucy Allen, soprano; Herbert T..
Clarke, c%ornetist; Leo Zimmerman,
trombone soloist, and they will he
heard at different times during the
afternoon and evening concerts.
The street attractions are assured
by the management to De equal TO
anything in past years, although Of
a different character, and they will
be e e every afternoon and evening.
The Milwaukee road will run four
teen special trains to Mitchell dur
Ing the week and will give the best
service to all parts Of the state that
the palace has ever enjoyed. A fare
for the round trip is cheap enough
to bring thousands of visitors to
Mitchell every dav in the week.

FINE STRIKE
IN DOUGLAS

We were shown some very rich speci-
mems of ore from a new strike in the
Nevada Douglas this week The strike
was made only few days ago, and is in
the big tunnel being run on the west
side of the property. This tunnel is now
in 800 feet and has cut numerous zones
of good ore. At a distance of about 170
feet from the portal of the tunnel a short
drift was run and winze started, and
it is at this point that the nice ore was
encountered. The ore is cuprite which
will run over SO per cent in the red
metal. Just how extensive this strike is
has not yet been learned 1t seems that
it is hard to stick a pick into Nevada
Douglas ground without uncovering ore
of some kind.

BUCKSKIN GOLD NUGGET

Emory Gates, manager of the Buck
skin Gold Nugget Co., at the new camp
of Buckskin, was in town this week on
business. He gives very favorable re-
ports about his property and the camp
in general. A shaft is now down 20 feet
on the ledge in this ground, and gaso-
line hoist of Is horse power is now at
Wabuska and will be installed at the
mine within the next ten days, when
the work of dropping the shaft to the
depth of 800 feet will begin in earnest
At this depth the ledge will be crosscut
and drifted on to determine its size
and value. The ledge crops on the surface
for considerable distance and has been
found to be from s to 100 feet wide The
groupings give an average value in gold
and silver of $3.50 per ton, but assays
have been obtained that run as high as
500 per ton. The ground lies about a
mile and half west of Buckskin, and
the company believes it has good
piece of property. To show that they
are convinced of this they will expend
considerable money in development

BROCK BUYS MONO ROAD

The Brock syndicate, composed of
Philadelphia capitalists, and who own
the Tonopah & Goldfeld railroad, have
purchased the Mono Lake railroad and
expect to begin surveys at once for the
extension of the line to Tonopah. En-
gineers will begin work within a few
days and the work will be pushed with
all speed.
Brock admits that the road is part of a
transcontinental line which will go from
Salt Lake via Ely and thence to the
coast. The line will make the eastern
connection at Salt Lake.
Such deal has been rumored for some
time but no confirmation could be OBJ
tained until recently, when Engineer
Harvey of the Brock interests and also
President Brock of the Tonopah & Cold
field admitted the deal. The extension
from the new road will strike at Tono-
pah Junction. Bridgeport Chronicle.

LITTLE YERINCTON co

The above caption is the title of a
company organized to operate some
promising gold claims just inside the
Reservation lines to the east of Yering-
ton. 7. l.. Hoppin is one of the pro-
moters of this company and believes that
the company has some valuable ground
1t is his opinion that the great copper
zone of this district crosses the divide in
the vicinity of the Little Yerington
ground. A big prospect tunnel has been
started to open up the ground of this
company and it is confidently expected
that the property will soon develop into
nice gold and copper producer. The
vein on the surface carries good grade
of copper ore and assays of $85 to $136
per ton in gold have been received from
the ore. The property is located close
to the railroad and ore can be shipped at
reasonable figure.
