FAITHS HOPES
ARE REALIZED

Arthur G.. Keene, formerly editor
Of The Mobridge News. is putting
in some spare time on the Faith
Gazette these days as a relief from
the monotcny of life on claim. !,
The last Issue Of the Gazette has
SO many Of Mr. Keene's earmarks
on its first page that he who runs
may read. 1t is an excellent issue
and is designed to celebrate the
advent of the railroad into that
place.

at noon, Jan. s. A well written
article in the Gazette entitled
What is found at Faith" is in
terspersed with scriptural quota
tat;ons such as For we walk Iy
faith, MT by sight" Thy faith
hath made thee whole, The just
shall live by faith etc. In a
story about what this great pio-
neer rallioad system has done, the
Gazette says: The construction
OK this line commenced over two
years ago upon the completion of
the Pacific Joast extension of the
Milwaukee railroad and was de-
sigred as feeder or branch line
to that great system, and was
pushed rapidly forward with two
objects in view, one of which was
to prevent the threatened INVASION
Fof this territory by the Nj. & st.
IL by building west from LeBeau,
and the other cause for hurry was
desire to get the lucrative busi-
ness of hauling in the rush of set
tlement into the Cheyenne reserva-
ton which hsd just opened.
The branch leaves the main line
at Wahpala just west of the Mis-
souri, river brid e, but since it is
operated across the bridge to Mo-
bridge it is for all practical pure
poses hranched from that place

Marmarth Mail; The Mobridge
News of last week contained an
article claiming that \. j. Sharp
of our city was intending to move
his laundry from here to Mobridge.
Mr.. Sharp says: "You can deny
that every word Of it. | did think
some of star ing a new laundry in
MObridge hut have given up all
idea of it. Marmarth is in every
way superior to Mobridge and |
wouldn't thing Of moving there. "
Now wouldn't that give YOU a
pain? The article in The News
referred to by the Mail was written
after the editor Of The News hal
interviewed Mr.. Sharp personally
and had been told by him that we
could quote him as saying that he
liked the push and go-ahead here
and much preferred Mobridge to
Marmarth as location for his
launlry and was going right back
to Marmarth to move his laundry
here. Nothing was said about a
n.w laundry. His plan, a. given
to US. was to move his Marma"th
laundry here, enter into partner
ship with l.. r. Stacy and enlarge
the equipment. His last remark
to us was: We have never liked
it at Marmarth and my wife was
greatly taken with Mobridge while
on visit here last summer, so we
will move here, for like to get
among nice people such as | have
met since | have been in your
city"
1t is said that in the late census,
two-faced people were couEted
twice. Wonder where Mr. Sharp
was them Yes?

Extend CourteSieS
To French Officers

ANNAPOLIS, Md. March 20.-Capt.
J. NJ. Bowyer. superintendent OF the
Naval Academy. today notified the Of
hcers of the visiting French warships,
through Admiral LaJarte, that the
Academy was at their disposal. and that
officers of the United States navy
would be detailed for the purpose IL
escorting through the grounds and
buildings any might care to in
spect the institution.
No reply has been received as yet, but
there is no doubt that the invitation will
be accepted. and that parties of diff
ferent grades of officers and men will
tour the Academy until practically all
have made thorough inspection of II.
On account of the demands made upon
the time and energy of the French Wis
itors by their Coaling, no detailed pro-
gram for their entertainment has been
made out, the only event fixed being
that of the bah and reception this even
ing. However, there is no doubt that
the French officers will return this in
some way. and there will be numerous
smaller affairs Of a formal or informal
nature.
The visitors will also be afforded an
opportunity OF seeing the national
American game played, as on Wednes-
day the Mdshipmen will open their

Johns, the local college. Facilities will
be afforded for as many of the officers
and men of the feet who care TO do so
to see the game.

THIEF'S LIFE WEIRD
TANGLE OF ROMANCE
He Tells of Trips to Strange
Parts, and of Queer
Means of Travel.

Thousands of miles of wandering
which in seven years led George Stevens
through every State in the Union;
through every South American Republic
save Haiti and Venezuela; which found
him at times riding brake beams on
freight trains, or at others working as
stevedore on Panamanian tow boats or
tramp cattle steamers. ended in Police
Court this morning
He pleaded guilty TO being a boarding
house thief. So for the next ten
months, unless he is paroled, he will re-
main at the District jail-a longer
period of fixed residence than he mas
known since childhood.
Stevens declares that when he came to
Washington he was honest, and as he
is penitent, Judge MullOwny, who SEN
fenced him, is willing to investigate the
case farther with view to placing him
on parole If he is found worthy
According to the police Stevens came
TO Washington about two weeks ago.
He engaged a furnished room at a Il
street boarding house: Then. they

others. In the meantime, they say, he
went to Baltimore, and, obtaining

No progress has been made in nego-

cordlng to Wilton ]. Lambert, attorney

Mrs. Dyrenforth
Agrees to Terms

Another step to set aside the eccen-
tric provisions in the will of the late
Gen. Robert Dyrenforth was taken to-
day in the District Supreme Court
when his widow, Mrs. Jennie Dyren-
forth filed an answer to the suit Of At
torney w. II. Dennis, collector of the
estate, Consenting to an amicable set
tIement OF the dispute between the
heirs.
Mrs. Dyrenforth states she is willing
to have payment made to Collector
Dennis of $4,000, received from life in
surance companies by her husband
executors.
The action OF Mrs. Dyrenforth re.
moves a great obstacle in the proceed
inEs She Is said TO be satisfied with
the recent decree of the court giving
her the family home of "Laurelwood.'
as her share of General Dyrenforth' s
estate.
Other neirs are expected 70 join with
Mrs. Dyrenforth for payment Of the
life insurance assets and equal dis
tribution to avoid probate OF the un-
usual will of General Dyrenforth.

THE NATURE OF
NEURASTHENIA

or nerve exhaustion, has been fire.
quently misunderstood by the public,
and quacks of all kinds have not
hesitated to invade this rich field
with extraordinary promises of cure
from various methods of impressing
the imagination. Rest, recreation
and distraction have been appealed
to, not without success, as they are
aids to relief; but physicians have
always known that the basis of neur-
asthenia lay in the actual physical
starvation of the body and nervous
system. Before mental suggestion
can be effective 1t is necessary to
feed body and nerves with their own
proper nourishment-a combination
Of albumen, the most important bod
fly constituent, with phosphorus, the
source Of nerve power. How this Is
best accomplished may be learned
from a most interesting book issued
by The Bauer Chemical Company
562 Everett Building, New York, who
will send a copy free and prepaid, to
any applicant. The able physician
author discusses the causes of neur-
asthenia, but goes quickly to the
remedy, the food-tonic known as
Sanatogen, which combines the ele-
ments above referred to in a soluble
powder, easily taken in tea, cocoa, or
'even water. The authors impreg-
nable reasoning the publishers have
reinforced by striking testimony not
only from unimpeachable medical
sources, but also from world-known
novelists, playwrights, social lead
ers, philanthropists and others whose
sense of justice has impelled them
to contribute their grateful acknowl-
edgment of benefits sustained; the
portraits of several of these distin-
guished persons adorn the book No
one with a logical mind can read
this striking work without being
convinced; although devoid of mys-
tical nonsense and written in plain
words, it is as entertaining as a good
short story. AS indicating a sure
means of prevention, the book will
interest all hard-driven individuals
or those not quite up to par physic-
ally.

freight and passenger rates between
the east and the western inter-moun-

Interstate Commerce Commission to-
day by attornys representing ship

The cases, affecting practically every
railroad in the West. were decided
condlttonally several months ago To-
day the shippers asked that the con.
ditional rate reductions be made per-
manent. while the railroads attempted
to show by their statistics that some
of the reductions suggested were too
sweeping.
Arguments in the cases probably
