HIS TREATMENT NOT 50 BAD
Prof. Isgrigg is Able to Show
Results Without Viola
ton of Laws.
PRACTICES SUGGESTIVE THERAPEUTICS
DR.. Minty and Others Cause his
Arrest Alleging No Value to his
Cure by Faith Professions.

Suggestive therapeutics as a cure
for bodily ailments is all right accord
ing to a decision of Justice Worth,
rendered Tuesday in the case entitled:
"Dr. Minty VS.. Prof. L. NJ. Isgrigg." !"
The decision, however, is with the
proviso that the person treated by the
laying on of hands and thinking is fa-
vorable to the treatment.
Prof. Isgrigg and wife have been
residents of the city several months,
during which time he has practiced
the Weltmer method of suggestive
therapeutics, treating many patients.
The warrant for his arrest was sworn
out before Justice f. +. Joy and the
case was tried before Justice Worth.
Mayor Wood prosecuted the case and
the defense was represented by Attor-
ney c. w. Brown. Testimony was
offered by Drs. Minty, Rattle and Rob
inson, their testimony tending to show
that practice engaged in by defendant
was of no medical standing and that
not being licensed physician he
should not be allowed to practice in
the state.
The defense admitted the allegations
and then presented testimony to show
that no drugs were used and that,
Notwithstanding their absence, the
professor was able to relieve suffering
as he claimed. A diploma from the
Weltmer college at Nevada, No., was
offered as, an exhibit. This was fol
lowed by testimony of Ole Peterson,
z. B. Mccarthy, { Sam Faulk Hugh 'l
A. III. Tyrell and others, all of Whom
claimed to have ;la been b treated and 1t5
Justice Worth, after hearing the
testimony and listening to the argu,
ments, concluded that no crime hao
been committed by the practice o1
suggestive therapeutic" and so de
cided the case.

Sl50,OOO IS
now ASKED
Congressman Martin Intro.
duces Bill for Government
Building Here.
BILL IS NOW IN THE HANDS OF COMMITTEE
Means Building to Cost st5o,ooo.o 90
When Completed-Govern
Now Owns Site.

Believing Rapid City entitled to a
government building Congressman
Martin introduced a bill shortly after
congress convened, asking an appro-
priation of $3.50 900. The bill was at
once referred to the committee on
public buildings and grounds and
stands fair chance, provided there is
any money for expenditures Of this
nature. Mr.. Martin is a member of
the committee and promises to do all
in his power to secure the appropria-
tion. In letter to Tom Sweeney of
this city, under date of December I,
he says:
81 have your good letter of Dec. Sd.
My bill for public building at Rapid
City is already introduced and l will
inclose you a copy. You may be sure
it will not be neglected. II there is
any public building legislation at this
session Rapid City will be on the list:
AS am again member of the com.
mittee on public buildings and grounds
/ will be in position to see that this
case is not overlooked. 1t is not pos
sible thus early in the session to know
whether or not we can legislate on
public buildings at this time, but l
personally consider this ought to be
done. 1t will of course depend upon
the question of revenues, but for one
think that a public building bill
should be passed"
THE BILL REFERRED
In the House OF Representatives,,
Mr.. Martin, of South Dakota, has in.
troduced the following bill which was
referred to the committee on public
buildings and grounds and ordered to
be printed:
sFor the erection of public build

5Mondell, head of the public land COM
mission in the hope he will recognize
the hardship depicted and take action
to remedy it, as it is belived within
his power to do so. The modification
asked would not be for South Dakota
only, but would apply to all states
where lands are 10 be had as home
steads.
The land being taken up in north-
east Mead county is SO far removed
from railroad points that coal for. fuel
is next to impossible to secure, now
costing S3S per ton by the time it is
on the homestead. Another instance
of Importance is offered. NJ. Langdon,
a barber by trade, went upon his land.
To do so it required seventeen days
time, with the drive made in biting
cold over rough, slippery roads.

House at an Estimated Cost of

There is a movement on foot to have
a part of the new building to be
erected by the Merchants Loan and
Trust company converted to use as a
modern opera house. The structure
is to be at the corner Of Seventh and
St. Joe streets and is believed an ideal
location for such purpose. Another
location now suggested is the property
owned by Corbin Morse at the corner
Of St. Joe and Sixth streets. It is
stated the owner would be pleased to
consider a proposition for such pur-
pose. 1t is claimed that theater
building with stores on the first floor
could be erected at an expenditure of
approximately $4,000 and that the
rentals would take care Of the interest
on borrowed money, or If built by local
capital would pay a fair percentage on
