CITY MAY CHOOSE PAVING,
Special Tax May Be Levied Even II
Residents OPPOSE Selection.

Judge MCGEE Of the circuit court It
Deadwood has just decided in favor Of
the city in the injunction proceedings
sought BY property owners who were
opposed to brick paving. AS q result
workmen were put at work at once by
Mayor Adams tearing up the city
streets, preliminary to paving. The
main point at issue in the injunction
was whether the city had the right to
levy a special tax for brick paving
when some Of the property owners pre-
ferred macadam, which they alleged
was cheaper and more durable. They
now threaten to take the case to the
supreme court.

Dodging Officers.
"There's no fun in keepin' outen
the way of officers when it's SO blamed
easy" Tom Condo nsaid, as he gave
himself up to Deputy Sheriff William
Trthen at Deadwood. "The first week
looked like l might have a leetle sport,
but nix for yours truly. 1t was a lead
pipe and didn't have to hang round
me old shack either. You might as
we'll settle my case now"
Condor has been missing since the
last term of the federal court at Sioux
Falls. He was charged with having
sold liquor IN the Rosebud Indian res
ervation, but when the time for trial
arrived he was gone, and forfeited a
$500 bond, when he gave himself up to
Deputy Sheriff Trathen.
United States Marshal Bullock was
notified, and Condor will be hailed be-
fore the Deadwood term of the federal
court next month.

GIANT GUARDS BANK CASH.
LEGISLATOR Is So Big He Doesn't Need
Help in Conveying Silver.

"
A sack of silver was hurriedly taken
overland in open buggy to the new
bank at Rec Heights, a branch of the
First National bank of Miller, by J. D.
Humiston. a man nearly seven feet
tall and built like a giant. He went
unarmed, but M man in Miller be-
sides the bank officers and himself
having knowledge of the precious
cargo that made up the load in his
buggy. The road over which he had
to travel is lonely, and he must have
met numerous tramps on the trip.
Under ordinary circumstances a half
dozen common men would stand little
show against him in bodily strength.
He was a member of the last legisla-
ture from this county.

The Soul and the Beard.

In Russia it was the common belief up to the time of Peter the Great that beardless men were also soulleSs and that a man who purposely admitted having his beard marred could never enter heaven. The great Peter above referred to ordered his heathens to shave up," so as to appear more civi- lized, and when they refused to comply with his edict he fined the wealthy and middle classes 100 rubles for each beard that was permitted to grow and each peasant and laborer kopeck for the same privilege. Finally the priests were appealed f6, and they informed their parishioners that unless they sub mitted to having their boards shaved they need not expect that St. Nicholas, the gatekeeper of heaven, would be able to distinguish them from the bearded Turks. That had the desired effect.

Edward HIS Drum Ccrps,

Probably introduced from the east, Is frequently mentioned ill the accounts of the first crusade. When Edward III. and his queen made their trium- phal entry into Calais, "tambours,' or drums, were among the instruments which were played in their honor. An other of these was called "naker," or kettledrum, taken, together with it's name, from the Arabs. The poet Chau- cer also mentions this instrument in his description of the tournament in the ''Knightes Tale:'
 Fyfes. trompes nakeres and clarounes That Tn the batailie blowen blody sounes.
 The king generally kept a troop of these bandSmen or minstrels in his employ, and we read that Edward Ii on one occasion gave sum of Ca shillings to Roger the trumpeter, Janino the nakerer and others for their per formances.-Ch Chambers Journal.

A Thinc of Many Names,

The Thames has been the cause of much controversy. It's name has been variously stated as Tamcses, Tamese, Tamises Cat the iuncture of the Isis and Tame, near Dorchester) Tamisa, Tamesa, ThaInlsia, Thamess and final ly Isis (where it flows between the OK fordshire and the Buckinghamshire shores). Thus at Oxford it is still of ten called tie Isis until it receives the shallow river Tame just below Dochcs- ter, from which point it is called Thames. Historians trace this error 10 an early attempted division of the Latin word TameSis into two words, Tame ess or Tame isis, suggested per haps by the existence of the Tame i,4 Buckinghamsbire. The Saxons called it the Thames, ancient maps and doc,l- ments designating it Thamesis FlGvius From "In Thamesland."

Both cinnamon and cassia contain tannin, and toe much of either has the same effect as excessive tea drinking. There are cinnamon and cassia topers who are as much addicted to the habit of chewing the bark as some men are to chewing tobacco.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
 Strong and Healthy.

Their Unceasing Work Keeps Us
 Strong and Healthy.
 All the blood in the body passes trough the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood. They work night and day. When healthy they remove about 800 grains of impure matter daily, when unhealthy some part of this impure matter is left in the blood. This brings on many dis eases and symptoms-pain ill the back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hear
 ng, dizziness, irregular heart, de- hilty, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits
 h the urine, etc. But of you keep
 he filters right you will have no trouble with your Kidneys.
 E. Levy, dealer in tobacco and cigars, at 215 Main st., and living tft' S23 West Sixth st., Little Rock, Ark, says: There was a miser- able feeling in the small of my back and a feeling of weakness. As do a great deal of driving blamed the constant jolting for causing the severe pain across ny kidneys. Whatever the cause of the trouble was after I started to use Ooan's Kidney Pills my back gave me very little annoyance, the use of this remedy having driven the lameness entirely away. I have rec commended Doan's Kidney Pills to several of my acquaintances and shall continue to do so for I know they can be relied upon to bring re- lief in cases of backache."
