Files Plat of Route

Pierre-The Northwestern Railway
company has filed with the state land
department a plat showing what state
lands they expect to cross with their
line from Dallas to the northwest, in
dicating that they will begin active
work along that extension within a
short time. The state lands which
they will cross are section 20. town
ship 1915; section 38, township 1915,
and section 16, township 99-77. This
would indicate that they will soon be
at work on their line for which a res
olution of extension was filed with
the secretary of state last year. This
line is to extend from Dallas in a
general northwestern direction to a
point practically at the southeast cor
ner of Mellette county, which is to be
opened to settlement under the pro-
visions of the bill passed a few days
ago.

Colorado Lands Richer
Than Gold Mines

There are bigger profits in eastern Colorado in proper
ton to the cost of land than almost anywhere else.
Colorados agricultural products are more than double tho
value of its mines.
Irrigation is unnecessary: BY deep blowing and con-
tinual shallow cultivation the soil never dries out during
the growing season, making big crops and surprising profits
on g.. 90 to 5000 land.

SAD DEATH OF POPULAR YOUNG WOMAN AT WYERVILLE-EN- TIRELY NEW JAIL MAY BE BUILT AT GREENSBORO.

Greensboro, January 12.-(Special.)- Miss Hattie Lou Parr, daughter of MT. and Mrs J. W. Parr of sawyerville, was buried here yesterday morning at 9:So o'clock. The circumstances of Miss Parr 8 death are extremely pathetic. During the Christmas holidays she left her home at Sawyerville and went to visit the family of the Rev. pr. Clark in Livingston.

Miss Parr was just budding into young womanhood and was of such an attractive character that she was beloved by all and her death has cast pail of sadness over this community, where she was we'll known.
 The commissioners court of Hale coun- ty was in session here today It has a problem on it's hands as to what to do with the jail. The court made a contract for the remodelling of the jail, the ex- amining architect giving as his opinion that the present walls could be retained in the remodelled building. As the work of wrecking the jail progressed, and the walls could be more fully examined, 1t seems that a doubt has arisen to whether not they will support such re- pairs as it was determined to put on the building. The court will in all probability make change in the contract, and have the present walls torn down entirely and an entirely new jail built

The Formation Of Stomach Gases
Many Different Causes Are Concerned In Gaseous Accumulation in
 the Stomach.
A Trial Package of Stuart's Charcoal
 LozenQes Sent Free.

In cases of chronic gastric catarrh tho secretion of digestive juices in the stoul- ach is deficient the food is digested slow ly, the secretion is not normal and fer -mentation occurs with the evolution of much gas.
 It is evident, however, that a consid- erable time is required to allow gas to be formed in any large quantity in the stomach, and therefore, fatulence from this cause is not likely to occur untn some time after food has been eaten. If the pylorus, or opening from the stomach into the intestines, does not close prop .erly, gas may pass from the duodenun1 into the stomach. and distend it: and such distention may occur at any t1me of the day or night, and is not entirely de- pendent upon the decomposition of food fin the stomach. although this may be a prominent cause in many cases.
 There Is still another cause of excessive fiatulence, and that is the swallowing of air. There Is no doubt about air befng carried down Into the stomach by the food eaten; but it ia also known that liquids force a much greater quantity of air into the alimentary tract than foods do.
 sTUARTs CHARCOAL LozENGDs were especially designed for the relief and cure of stomach and intestinal gas-form- ation and accumulation, no matter what the cause may be. Over century ago physicians discovered that charcoal pos sessed wonderful powers of absorption. not found in any other remedial agent. Charcoal is definitely known to lessen and cure fatulence by oxidizing and ab- sorbing tho excess of gas from the stom- ach; but, in addition to that property, 1t also acts as . mechanical stimuiant and cleanser to the stomach and intestinal walls, and it exerts a purifying and an- tiseptic effect on the alimentary canal, which is similar to the action of tooth powder in the mouth
 Stuayt's Charcoal Lozenges are highly recommended by all sufferers from fiatu- lence or gas in the stomach and other parts Of the alimentary tract, as the one remedy which has given complete re- |1ief from all such disagreeable symp- toms Many persons who had been using various other remedies without relief. have given these powerful charcoal loz- ehges a trial. and have obtained imme- date relief and . permanent cure.
 EThese little lozenses will absorb one hbndred times their own volume in gases: villl antfseptize the stomach and intes- tines, destroying al polscns and disease gkrms, and deodori8ing. oxidixing and de- stroying all foul odors

The Kings Tailors.
m the Pail Mall Gazette.

From the Pail Mall Gazette
King Alfonso, who has gone back to
Spain, is one of the best dressed mon
archs of the day, and this, not only be-
cause his physical conformation lends it
self more readily to the art of the cutter
and the tailor, than is the case with some
of his brother monarchs, and because he
has his clothes made in London, but also
because he has acquired the art of put
ting them on, and of avoiding ultra
decorative soleciSmS. And yet Madrid
is not happy because Madrid does not
dress him, so there has been a little
difficulty. This, however. has been ar
ranged. The English cutter. imported
ad hoe, is still to cut his majesty's gar
ments and the Madrid tailor is to tailor
them.
This recalls the case of the third Ma
poleon whose tailor was the great Dusan-
