We believe that a large majority
of the voters in South Dakota will
consider principle before prejudice
when they cast their ballot next
November. To assume that they
would deliberately trample upon the
self governing right of mothers
and wives and sisters because they
fear they might not be able to con-
troll their votes. is to brand democ-
racy as a failure. 1e we cannot de-
pend upon the integrity Of the
masses then popular government Is

CHOKED THE WRONG MAN.

Belle Fourche Post: AS the depot
crew was busy taking the express
from the car after the arrival of the
regular train on Friday afternoon
last, a man named Harry Dillon
stepped off the train and without any
warning stepped up behind Agent
McClanahan and grabbed both hands
around his throat and choked him
till his tongue was hanging out to
a greater or less extent before any Of
the bystanders could make up their
minds whether the assailant was in
earnest or merely joshing. Mac had
his hands full of express packages
and was the most surprised man in
the bunch, but he hung to his pack
ages and squirmed around and final
ly turned his head enough to see
who was onto him. He also then
made a pass at the head of the fell
low and landed just as others began
pulling Dillon off. Chief of Police
Brooks arrested the assailant and
later in the day he was taken before
Justice of the Peace Poznansky,
where he plead guilty to the charge
of assault and was fined s25 and
costs.
It was afterward explained that
Dillon had been at work for the COM
pany as a brakeman on Bob Blair's
stock loading train; that he was adj
dicted to drink to such an extent
that a report was sent in from this
station to headquarters as to his do
ings while on duty, and the superin-
tendent notified the gentleman that
his services were no longer needed
by the company.
He explained that for the reason
that the report came from this city,
he naturally supposed that It had
originated with McClanahan and he
came here on the regular especially
to chastise the man whom he believ-
ed had caused him to get fired. He
apologfzed to Mechanism after pay
ing his fine and he now has another
man to lick because Of losing his job.

WOMAN HAS SLEPT
FOR TWO MONTHS

paris. August 1S.-A most peculiar
casa of its particular KIND is inter-
esting the medical profession here.
A servant named Josephine has fal-
len into a cataleptic slumber and can
not be awakened She is at present III
the hospital at Alencon, where she mas
been since January. Josephine, VINO Is
80 years old, has for the last is years
been subject to nervous hts, Wnlch oc-
Cured every few hours. She was COM
pletely Frustrated after these attacks
and was incapable of working for sew
eral DAVIS. Her cure was extremely
slow in the hospital. Her spirits were
affected and she became convinced that
she would never work again AS her
character became more somber her ner-
vousness increased.
On June II last after a day in which
she exhibited unusual mental agitation
she fell into a sleep from which she
has not yet recovered Hearing, sight,
and taste are suspended. Only the
sense of smell remains in a certain
measure The eyelids frequently trem-
Bile convulsively, whilst at intervals the
patient give utterance to inarticulate
groans.
DR.. Paul Fares, professor at the
School of Psychology, Is extremely IN
terested in this remarkable case and
il using his best efforts to convert the
pathological sleep into hypnotic sleep
in which state the patient would be
more accessible to suggestions OF
therapeutic efficacy. His labors in that
direction have been crowned with sue
cess. When she fell into the sleep JOS
ephine was completely speechless; to-
day she articulates in a loud voice
the effect of suggestion. Responding to
the same influence. she sits up with out
assistance in bed. Under the guidance
of the doctor her faculties return lit
tie by little. But her muscles have lost
their most elementary motions of move
ment. Her medical attendant is now
working upon the muscle memory.
He believes that presently the dreamer
will be called back by scientific mir
| acle from the limbo where her mind
wanders, and she will be restored to
