ell Monday night and accepted, Hardy
Sayre being elected to succeed him.
The reasons prompting his retirement
were not stated by Mr.. Taylor in his

vitality. Mr.. Taylor requested in his
resignation that Hardy Sayre, his law
associate, be chosen as his successor,
which was carried out.

rested four farmers who had
liquor in their possession. which
according to these gentlemen
was . violation Of law. Monday

IN reference to intOxicants on
the coded portion Of the Yank-
ton reservation was thoroughly
gone into and it was then de-
cided that Anyone could have
all the liquor they wanted for
their own use, but not to sell OF
give away, and this same de
cision was reached again last
Wednesday. The men who
were arrested Saturday were
men who have never in any way

Little Craft Crosses Bows of Armored Vessel, and Twenty three of Her
 Men Die In Channel Waters.

Portsmouth, April 3.--A wireless re. port received here says that during night maneuvers in the channel the cruiser Berwick ran down the torpedo boat destroyer Tiger and a number of men were drowned.
 The Tiger was cut in half and speed fly sank. Boats from the Berwick and the cruiser Gladiator picked up twenty two men, one of whom died later of his injuries. It is believed that the Tiger had crew of forty-five men and that all the others were drowned.
 It appears that the Portsmouth re- serve fotilla was having maneuvers and that during night attack the ri, ger crossed the bows of the Berwick, which crashed into her Most of the crew of the destroyer were below at the time. dressed in heavy oilskins and sea boots.
 The torpedo boat destroyer Tiger was launched in 1900. Her length was 210 feet, breadth of beam 21 feet and indicated horsepower 6,400. Her max. imum speed was 30 knots and her or dinary compliment of men sixty.

Few civilized places are so isolated in the winter time as is Prince Ed ward Island. which is one of the maritime provinces of the Dominion of Canada. It lies north of the province of Nova Scotia and east of the province of New Brunswick. being separated from both by North umberland Strait.
 So much for geography which Is familiar, for Prince Edward Island has become popular summer resort. lt will not be popular winter re- sort, however. until the climate changes radically.
 Northumberland Strait promptly freezes over for the most part pret- ty early in the winter and cOmmuni- cation is a hazardous matter. It is just as bad as getting across Great South Bay in the depth of winter and the method of crossing Is the same. 4 variation of the scooter. or that contriyance which is part sled and part boat. is the sole means of travelling.
 There is one difference between the winter navigation Of treat South Bay and of Northumberland Strait. Trafie across Great South Bay Is not regular. as those who are forced 10 inhabit Fire Island know to their sorrow. But ieeboats make regular trips to Prince Edward island all through the cold spell The cold spell is prolonged. usually from mid December to May.
 Tho favOrite route for she ioeboats is from Cape ToTmentiue in New BrunsVick to Cape Traverse on the Island" as the insuIsF province is called locally. That makss a trip of about twenty-five miles.

 People afflicted with one of thes4 parasites are nervous and depresseds Their chief sensation is sone of lans guor, and they tire very easily. Lack of energy and ambition affect the bodys and the mind becomes dull and slug~ gish. The. memory becomes not sd good, and the eyesight is generally poorer.
 "The New Discovery, in freeing stomsI ach and bowels of all impurities, seems to be fatal to these great worms, and almost immediately expels them from the system.
