FILLED WITH GRATITUDE FOR MANY BENEFITS,
SICK ONES PRAISE DR.. MELVIN |. GATES
Raised Up From Beds Of Sickness Brought Back to Perfect
Health and Strength, They Testify With Grateful Hearts
to the Wonderful Power Of Vital Science IN Healing
DSeaSe---Read This Womans Story.

II any further evidence OF the great
success of DIR. Gates were needed than
the voluntary testimonials of cured
ones which have appeared from time
to time in this newspaper it could be
produced from every corner of the
country where the man is known and
his work has been tested.
1t is really remarkable when viewed
in connection with the non-success OF
many physicians that this man can
take the worst cases and in what seems
an absurdly short time bring them back
to health and strength, at the same
time teaching them the way in which
to retain this precious blessing. Here
is only one of a vast number of let
ters that come TO DR.. Gates from CRATE
full cured ones:
DIR. M. L. Gates,
Minneapolis, Mimi:
Dear Sir: / am DESTROYS of giving
some expression of the high esteem in
which / hold you and of gratitude for
my restoration TO perfect health.

with what the doctors pronounced tu-
berculosis of the bowels. / had had
four OF the best doctors, but they did
me no good. At last became so weak
and sick that could scarcely walk.

was afraid could not stand 1t.
Some of my friends advised me to
go to you, and heard of so many who

cided to send me to you for treatment.

trouble of any kind.
To say that am thankful for what

GIVEN MONTH TO

CITY COUNCIL ASKS FOURTH
WARD PROPERTY OWNERS TO
GET TOGETHER BEFORE oRDI-
NANCE Is PAssED-HoRSE
THIEVES AND OTHER EPITAPHs
ARE HURLED.

For a time the proposed warrant
sale, the ventilation of the city nall
and other former live questions, were
forgotten at the council meeting last
evening and the city fathers became
court of equity with Fourth ward
property owners as the parties to the
litigation. certain heating main
through block Seven, original town
site, from Seventh to Eighth streets
is the bone of contention.
Not until certain of the parties had
been likened unto horse thieves and
common criminals was the matter dis
posed of, and then only by postpone
ment for a month with the request
from the council that all parties reach
an amicable settlement before any
official action is taken.
The heap big smoke started when
the report of the ordinance committee
recommending that a certain ordin-
ance granting Messrs. Nichols & Nc
Fadden the right to lay a heating
main on the above description, do not
pass on it's second reading This ordi-
nance was introduced at the last meet
ing and in a formal manner passed
it's first reading and was referred to
the ordinance committee for investi-
cation.
Chairman Hall of the ordinance
committee; in support of the COM
mittee recommendation, took the floor
and stated that he desired the matter
thrown before the entire council and be
thoroughly aired before being disposed
of
Thereupon Atty. w. s. Stambaugh
representing the applicants explained
the situation. The main in question
was laid about year ago, the owners
claiming that they proceeded under
the impression that the franchise
which the Union Light, Heat and
Power Co., were granted, covered their
case.
This fall Dave Shields tapped the
main for heat for his new building.
The applicants claimed that he re-
fused to stand his quota of the orig
inal expense OF the construction cost.
Following Mr.. Stambaugh, Mr..
Shields took the floor handing out
some remarks that sizzled for time.
He claimed That in installing the main
that no effort was made to do first
class job and that he was put to con-
siderable expense in putting the alley
around his building back in shape
again.
There was some sharp cross firing,
until e. e. Cole poured oil on the
troubled waters. There was a strong
sentiment in favor of passing the ordi-
nance. Alderman Lewis moved that il
be placed on its final reading when the
Alderman from the First took the
floor.
I'VE don't want to engender any
bad blood between these parties who
have known personally ever since j
nave lived here. 1 think that Dave
Shields will pay his share for the con-
struction of the main, II he uses 1t

and with several veteran players to
choose from, the PROSPECTS are very
bright.
The gym work has been revived by
Coach Watkins to such a degree that
everyone is interested and partici-
pating in the fun, generally consfd-
cred irksome. A fine new outfit OF
apparatus has been installed and
things are kept going from $3.50 to 6
every evening.
Another duty of the physical direct
or is that of coaching the interclass
teams which meet after the Christ
mas holidays for the championship
game which was recently postponed
With all these things Coach Wat
gins Is a busy man, and the students
are kept busy. 1t is generally ac-
cepted. however, that this gymnasium
feature will eventually raise the attn
letic standard of Fargo college by
putting on the gridiron, diamond, or
track, men who are sound OF body, and
rigid with sets of good firm muscles.

l am in favor OF putting this matter
over to the next meeting. Let's give
these parties time to get together be-
fore we take any action" said Alder
man Cole in substance.
Mr.. Shields contended that all the
time that Nichols & Macfadden had no
right to lay the main originally with
out permission Of the council and that
the council should at this time refuse
to grant the franchise.
BY a vote of FIVE to six the ordin-
ance was laid over until the next
meeting.

LYNCH'S ELECTION
BOON TO LEAGUE

Cincinnati, Dec. 21.--That the dim
cuIties encountered in the election of q
president of the National league clubs
in New York last week win eventually
prove boon to the league was the
declaration Of August Hermann.
president OF the National Baseball
commission. upon his return here to-
night from New York.
The statement OF Mr.. Hermann to
that effect was concurred in by John
T. Bruce, secretary of the national
commission, and Julius F1eischmann.
one of the largest stockholders in the
Cincinnati club, both of whom came
home on the same train with Mr..
Hermann.
Good Umpires Assured.
They united in saying that Thomas
j. Lynch, the newly elected president.
first of all, will fill the National
league with the highest class Of UNI
pires and that there will be fewer
compliments and protested games un-
der his administration than ever be-
fore.
Mr.. Hermann said a mistaken idea
had gone forth that the meeting OF
the magnates in New York developed
great deal of bitterness. On the
contrary he declared the utmost good
feeling prevailed
Tn The future" he said, Eve will
not have any deadlocks over the eleS.
ton of president of the league, for we
are going to amend the constitution
so as to make such a thing impos-
sibIe.'

the constitution which reads: "All
other appropriations shall be made by
special bills each embracing but one
subject" is equivalent to requiring
specific appropriation for each subject
other than those embraced in the gen.
eral appropriation bill.
5. To constitute an appropriation
under the provisions of the constitution
of this state quoted in the opinion, an
act must set apart from the public
revenue definite sum of money for
the specific object in such a manner
that the state officials are authorized to
sue the amount so set apart, and no
more, for that object.
6. Chapter 1879, Laws Of 1903 pro-
viding for the payment of reward TO
persons who shall secure the arrest
and conviction of violators of chapter
SO of the penal code, known as the
prohibition law, while creating an OBJ
legation on the part of the state to pay
the rewards earneed under the terms of
that chapter, is inadequate as an APP
preparation and does not authorize the
auditor to draw his warrant on the
state treasurer for the same so earned.
for the reason that the act does not
limit the total amount which may be
paid as such rewards in any year.

END OF PET DEVASTATION.
New Yorker Finally Rid of the Dis
pissed High Hat.

There is certain man in New York
whose pet detestation is a high hat.
In his journey through life he. has ac-
CURED many dislikes, some prejudices.
and few hatreds-but his feeling
toward a high hat goes far beyond the
limits implied by the mild word
hatred"
However, family influences were
brought to bear on him when he had
reached the proper milestone in his
life, and these influences were so
strong and insistent that eventually
the man in question purchased a high
hat; what is more. he actually
donned it. ....,......
But his hatred abated not jot. In
fact, 1t grew. He used to open his
Eatbox and eye the hat viciously, MUIR
derously. But thoughts Of what the
family would say If he should adopt
violent measures always deferred him.
and every time he shut the box again,
leaving the thing unframed, and
vented his rage in profanity. -
Once he and his family went to
live at hotel in the country. And
one night, with appalling suddenness,
that hotel caught fire.
Fortunately, everybody in it was
able to get out in safety. The young
man of the hat, after counting heads,
and seeing that his people were out of
danger, decided TO dash into the burn
Ing building once more-there was
still bit of time-in order to see
whether he might rescue few more
things from his room. In the excite
ment attendant on the discovery of
the fire the hotel guests had been
obliged to look to their personal safe
ty, without thinking overmuch of that
of their belongings.
Well, the young man, plunging gal
lantly through flame and smoke,
reached his room. There, the first
thing which caught his eye was the
high hat
With look OF diabolical glee he re.
garded 1t for a few seconds. Then
with an exclamation of delight-he
kicked it into the inmost part of the
room, into cracking flame and eddy
Ing smoke, far from all possible
means of escape
Then, diabolical glee still illumining
his features, he emerged happy
man.

Winter Drainage Suggestion.

Winter drainage is not the same as
summer drainage, and 1t must be at.
tended to very carefully at this clos
ing up season. In summer we simply
want capacious tiles running through
the soil capable of keeping 1t from be-.
ing waterlogged, and we want a slo-
ping of drives so that swift showers
shall be. carried. quickly by surface
bitches. But in. winter there is often
a body of melting snow very suddenly
let loose, that will wash the best soil
off your land, tear cutters through
your strawberry beds, and possibly
even heave out your young trees. 1t
is extremely important just as you
wind up your work, to cut surface
drains of temporary sort, where the
slopes are likely to be washed, and so
as to catch the flush of water before it
accumulates, and throw it out of your
garden and off your lawn. These SUI
perficial drains can be closed in the
spring. or, if left at all, can be modi-
fled to very shallow and almost I'M
noticeable suices.-Outing Magazine.
