No One with a
Sluggish
Liver
Can Enjoy Life

Few people appreciate what an i'm
portant organ the liver is. It is the
largest organ in the body, AND THE
LATEST. Given the least excuse it
will shirk its work most shamefuIly.
Many people whose Ivers are made
miserable by common Ills such as Sick
Headache, Stomach Upsets, Heartburn
or Constipation, do not know that that
big lazy loafer, THE LIVER, is caus-
ing all their trouble. Make the liver
perform its functions properly and
these troubles Immediately disappear.

NEWSY STATE NOTES.

In drunken effort TO raise disturb
ance. George Godfrey, foi years noted
tough character of Deadwood, known as
"Savey," finally met tragic fate.
Godfrey was at Sundance, Wyo., near
where he had a ranch and was on a
rampage. He entered a saloon and soon
got into an alteration with William
Vine, an old man, by abusing the latter
without reason. Vine stood the torrent
as long as he could and then whipped
out a knife and went after his tor
mentor. Godfrey was terribly slashed
and cut, and died few hours later as
the result of his injuries. Vine, who is
passed 90, was arrested, but released on
the finding of the coroner's jury that ne
acted in self defense. Godfrey once
served a term in the South Dakota pen
itentiary for using brass knuckles, and
is supposed to have had knowledge of
several crimes committed in the Black
Hills some years ago.
According TO authoritative information
that has leaked out from railroad
sources, three of the railro9d systems
that traverse South Oak ota, are actively
preparing TO take early advantage of
the forthcoming opening of the Chey-
enne River reservation to settlement by
building extensions through the new
country The Milwaukee will build an
southwestward from Mobrldge
through the reservation, the western
terminus of the extension yet to be
detel mined. The Minneapolis & st
Louis is preparing to build in a westerly
and slightly southerly direction from
LeBeau, its present western terminus,
the reservation, and the North
western will build in a northwesterly
direction from Philip, on the Pierre
Rapid City line, mp into the Belle
Fourche country.
Missing from his home in Sundance,
Wyo., for over q week, John Marchant,
county commissioner from Crook county
Wyo., is believed to have persisted in an
attempt to ford the Belle Fourche river
q, a time when it was swollen over its
banks. Mr.. Marchant's team of horses
was found near the point WI ere he
started to ford the river, the harness
having been cut away from the animals
in an apparent effort to save their lives.
and latter the hat and coat Of the miss
ing man were found further down the
river. When the stream subsidies 1t will

Delta Holds Banner
Fruit County Title.

Some contention has arisen over the
claims of Delta county as the largest
shipper of fruit of any county in the
United States. The only way to get
at these matters is from the records Of
such shipments. and Delta county ap-
pears to be in the lead. 1t is a ques-
ton whether or not all of this county's
shipments for the year closing have
ever been carefully complied. In speak
ing of them carload lots have been
mainly II not entirely taken into ac-
count, and no shipments claimed that
were not of Delta county raising; nei
ther were cantaloupes and potatoes cat
alogued as fruit
In addition to the carload shipments
of some two thousand cars of fruit,
tons of crates were shipped daily
through the berry. peach, cherry, prune
and apple seasons, and any number of
wagon loads were distributed to mining
camp and other surrounding markets.
