Scotland's Electric Lichts.

Alter figuring since last May
with various companies the city
council has finally succeeded ID
getting matters SO shaped that the
city IS in q fair way to 6 an
electric lighting system. Efforts
to organize . local company were
not successful and it was then de-
clded to invite outside companies
to take the franchise. An offer
was made to the company owning
the plants at Wagner, Geddes
Platte and Armour, and on Tues
day evening of this week Messrs.
John Absher Of Wagner and e. p.
Wanzer of Armour, representa-
tlves of that company, met with
the council to consider the terms Of
the franchise. An agreement was
finally reached and the franchise
was given its first reading. The
company agrees to establish the
plant as soon as possible, though.
probably not much work can be
done before spring. They will give
an all-night service eight months
in the year and an evening service
during May, June, July and Au-
gust. The city agrees to take six
arc lights and nineteen single lights
for street lighting, the cost of the
former to be So, and of the latter
So each per month. For dwelling
houses probably the meter system
will be used. It is also the inten-
ton of the company to furnish day
service for power purposes as soon
as the plant is we'll established.
j. M. Dunmire received q letter
last week from Pres. Chamberlain
OF the state farmers institute board
stating that dates for an institute
for this place could be given some
time in February, and asking what
the people of this community would
be willing to do for the support of
the meeting. Of course the con-
ductors of these institutes are fur
nished by the state board, but to
make them successful exhibits
should be made of various farm
products and prizes offered for the
best exhibits. There are many
farmers in this community who are
Interested in the breeding of fine
stock, and in the improvement of
the grains and grasses produced
on their farms. We would suggest
that they form an organization. IF
this is done we are confident that
liberal assistance will be- given by
the grain buyers and business men
of the town and in this way a sue
cessful institute can be held here.

Ell.
Geo. Schneider, who accompa-
MED r. R. Loomer on a hunting
expedition to northern Minnesota
several weeks ago, returned on
Wednesday. He says they bagged
one deer and trapped quite a large
number of mink and other fur
bearing animals, but the snow up
there got too deep for successful
trapping. The antlers and pelts
are not in evidence-not even a
slice of venison-but we wouldn't
think of doubling Georges word,
even if he were accused by the
president himself of nature taking.

The old fashioned way Of dosing a
weak stomach, or stimulating the heart
or kidneys is all wrong. DR.. Shoop
first pointed out this error. This is
why his prescription-nr. Shops Re-
storative-is directed entirely to the
cause CT these allments-the weak in
side or controlling nerves. 1t isn't SO
difficult, says DR.. Shoop, to strengthen
a weak Stomach, Heart or Kidneys, il
n goes at it correctly. Each inside
organ has it's controlling or inside
nerve. When these nerves fail, then
those organs must surely falter. These
vital truths are leading druggists every.
where to dispense and recommend DR.
Shops Restorative. Test it a few
days, and see! Improvement will,
promptly and surely follow.

One Way,

FROM harper 3 weekly.
A story, sal to be characteristic, 10
told Of an Arkansas Judge. It seems
that when he convened court at one Of
the towns on his circuit 1t was found
that no pens. ink, or paper had been
provided. and, upon inquiry, it devel-
oped that no county funds were avail
able for this purpose. The Judge ex-
pressed himself somewhat forcefully,
then drew some money from his own
pocket. He was about to hand this to
the clerk. when a visiting lawyer, q
high-priced, imported article, brought
on to defend O case of some import
ance, spoke UP, in al aside plainly aud
tble over the room.
Well" he remarked, with infinite
contempt, "I've seen some pretty bad
courts. but this-well. this Is the Inn
TT"
The old Judge flushed darkly.
You are fined s25 for contempt, siri
Hand the money to the clerk!" he said.
and when the pompous visitor had
hu1nbly complied, he continued:
Now. Mr.. Clerk, go out and get
what pens, ink and paper the court may
require, and If there is anything left
over you may give the gentleman his
change"
