GIRL CHOOSES TO BE BLIND.

Cheyenne Reservation Woman Prefers
Loss of Sight to Going Under Knife.
Filled with the traditional hatred
of the surgeons knife, Frances LIE
Beau, an Indian policeman at the
Cheyenne River agency, has turned
her back upon WATERFOWL to return
to her tepee and certain blindness
rather than submit to an operation for
the removal of a defective eye.
Some time ago the girls eye began
to fail, and now she is totally blind
In one eye and the other is becoming
affected. After an examination the
surgeon declared that the only hope
OF saving the sight of the good eye
was to have the diseased one removed.
After much persuasion the maid con-
sented to the operation, and the time
was set for her to go upon the table
Immediately after dinner. But when
the time came she refused to go to the
operating room. An old friend of her
fathers. Frank w. Lyon, of this city,
was brought in to try to persuade the
girl.
white medicine mans talk good"
said Mr.. Lyon. formerly agent at her
fathers agency. "He will save your
good eye. II you do not have your
blind eye taken out now you will be
blind. You will have to sit around
with the old women. You cannot en-
Joy life with the Indian girls. You
will never be happy"
II will go blind, then" said the girl.
II cannot let the medicine man cut
out my eye" And further persuasion
was useless.
During the day the stoical Indian
father, who had accompanied his
daughter to the city, kept his own
counsel. He accepted the word Of the
white man in regard to his daughter.
but he said no word to influence her.
He quickly gave his consent when told
that an operation was the only help,
but he left the problem for the girl
to settle for herself. The result
seemed a great sorrow to him, and
when he turned homeward he did so
In silence.

BOND FEATURE OF LAW VOID.
South Dakota Court UphoIds Licens.

South Dakota Court Upholds Licens-
Ing Nursery Stock Dealers.
The supreme court upheld the IL
cense and inspection features Of the
nursery stock law passed at the last
legislative session.
The case was up on an application
for release on habeas corpus of Henry
M. Hawley, who was arrested for at
tempting to sell stock without having
complied with the provisions of the
law which required license fee, in
spection by an entomologist and a
bond. The court denied the release
prayed for, and ruled against the bond
provision, but the license and inspec-
ton provisions are upheld.
The suit was brought as a test and
1t is now up to Mr. Hawley to pay the
fine assessed against him for violation
of the law.

"Brocky Kid" Is Cleared by Woman

One of the first instances in years
where an attempt to prosecute for hop
smoking In Deadwood occurred with

en- name is unknown, but who is
styled among his acquaintance as the

LOVE is PART or PRICE.

Love and affection and $1,000" Is
the unique consideration entered in
the records as the purchase price of
240 acres OF valuable farming land in
Carlisle township, few miles north
Of Aberdeen. This morning the reg
lister OF deeds received a warranty
deed from Joseph T. Peck Of Marion
county, Oregon, the grantor. The
grantees are Peck's two married
daughters. Mrs. George Tooker and
Mrs. Whitman Stone, both of whom
live at Salem, Ore. This is the first
time in the history of the country that
cash and affections have figured in
the transfer of land. In this instance
the money consideration is about one
sixth the value OF the property and on
that basis Of figuring 'love" and '.af-
lection are each worth about $500,

Not a drop Of alcohol enters into
DR.. Pierce's leading medicines. A
much better agent is used both for
extracting and preserving the me-
dicinal principles, viz.-pure triple
refined glycerine of proper strength.
This agent possesses medicinal
properties of its own, being most
valuable anti-septic and anti-fer-
ment, nutritive and soothing de-
mulcent.
Glycerine plays an important
part in DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery in the cure Of indi-
gestion, dyspepsia and weak stom-
ach, attended by sour risings,
rheartburn," foul breath, coated
tongue, poor appetite, gnawing
feeling in stomach, biliousness and
kindred arrangements of the stom-
ach, liver and bowels.
For all diseases of the mucous
membranes, the vGolden Medical
Discovery" is specific. Catarrh,
whether of the nasal passages or of
the stomach, bowels or pelvic or
gans is cured by it. In Chronic
Catarrh of the Nasal passages, it is
well, while taking the "Golden
Medical Discovery for the neces-
sary constitutional treatment, to
cleanse the passages freely two OF
three times a day with DR.. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. This thorough
course of treatment generally cures
even in the worst cases.
In coughs and h0arseness caus'

DIVISION SENTIMENT.
Towns Want to Divide the Big West
ern Counties.

Towns Want to Divide the Big West.
ern Counties.
The county divisicn question prom
ises to keep several Of the counties
west of the river stirred through the
coming year. In Butte county the
town of Lennon wants to carve
county out of the northeast cor
ner of Butte, in which as the only rail-
road town they expect to be the coun-
ty seat, even If they do have the exis-
tence with the state line as one OF
their streets. The people Of Meadow,
q new inland town about thirty miles
south of Lennon, in a mass meeting
have declared against any county di-
vision scheme for the present year,
and take the position that 1t is better
to wait until something more definite
is known as to development. Grand
River, west of Lennon, takes practi-
cally the same view of the situation.
About Camp Crook they are In favor
OF division II the county Is cut into
three parts, with one of them on the
'jog," the line between ranges 9 and
10, with the rest of the county cut
through the center east and west, max
ing another new county in the north
west corner OF the state, and leave the
southwest part OF the present county
remaining as Butte. With these di-
verse views, 1t will be hard to make
much progress.
The people Of Philip, in western
Stanley. are circulating a petition for
division of Stanley into two counties.
Midland, which would be practically
on the dividing line of the two coun-
ties, stands in opposition to such
move. Fort Pierre would not put up
much OF fight on the division scheme
to save themselves any future agita-
ton in regard to county seat removal
to more central point in the county
While there appears to be certain
amount of division sentiment in Ly-
man at present 1t is being allowed to
rest. and the people of Presho are
pushing their petitions for county seat
removal from Oacoma. II the county
should be divided into two equal parts,
Presho would be left on the dividing
line, and they are holding down divis-
ion sentiment to the best Of their abil-
ity. With all the agitation. some new
counties may be created before the
close Of the year, but there is scrap
coming on any of the projects.

sc Discovery" Is not so good for
acute coughs arising from sudden
colds, nor must it be expected to
cure consumption in its advanced
stages-no medicine will do that
but for all the obstinate hang-on,
or chronic coughs, which, if neg
lected, or badly treated, lead up to
consumption, it IS the best med
icine that can be taken.
It's an insult to your intelli.
gence for dealer to endeavor to
palm off upon you some nostrum
of unkn0wn composition in place Of
DR.. Pierce's world-famed medicines
which are OF KNOWN COMPOSITION.
Most dealers recommend Doctor
Pierce's medicines because they
know what they are made of and
that the ingredients employed are
among the most valuable that a
medicine for like purposes can be
made of. The same is true Of
leading physicians who do not hes
itate to recommend them, since
they know exactly what they con-
tain and that their ingredients are
the very best known to medical
science for the cure of the several
diseases for which these medicines
are recommended.
With tricky dealers 1t Is diff.
ferent.
Something else that pays them q
little greater profit will be urged
upon you as ujust as good, !" or even
better. You can hardly afford to
accept substitute Of unknoyn COM
position and without any particular
record of cures in place of Doctor
Pierce's medicines which are OF
KNOWN COMPOSITION and have a
record Of forty years Of cures behind
/ them. You know what you want
and it is the. dealers business to
supply that want. Insist atOm Il
