/ the break AT Hardwick, making four
burglaries within six weeks.
| The boy directed the officers where
| they would find some of the tickets
stolen and Detective Wallace and the
sheriff went TO the home of the boy :
parents and located mileage tickets,
valued at $3.50, which were taken from
the Hardwicl and Wolcott stations.
They were concealed in a partition over
a she'd.

| Hardwick as newspapers reported at
the time of the break. Tuthill said
that he got only 1895 in cash at the
| Hardwick job.

the Evelyn was steaming along the
Dutch coast and was going to skirt
the German coast on the way to avoid
the mine fields.
The Evelyn was outside of the war
zone established around the British
isles by the Germans. Responsibility
for the accident cannot be fixed. One
man from the Evelyn was frozen to
death in an open boat. One boatload
of the crew is missing, and it is fear
ed the men persisted at sea.
Another victim Of German subma-
rines was reported Sunday night. The
small Irish coaster Downshire was sunk
last night off Calf of Man, a little is
land south of the Isle of Man, in tho
Irish Sea.
The submarine ordered the Down
shire to stop off the Isle Of Man, but
the little steamship tried to get
away and did not heavp to until three
shots had been fired at her. The crew
of five men were taken aboard the sub
marine and detained for a while. hut
were subsequently, released and landed
at Dundrum, on the coast of Ireland.
! Men from the submarine boarded
the steamer and put explosives amid
ships. Then they retired, and in a
few minutes the explosion sent the
vessel to the bottom.
Another aerial attack on the east
coast Of England was delivered Sun
day by the Germans. this time with
aeroplanes instead of Zeppelins Sc
far as can be learned the effect OF
| the raid was inconsequential.
| The first town attacked was Colches
ter, in Essex, on the Colne river, l.
miles from the sea. Only one bomt
was dropped there and the aeroplant
squadron, the number of machines be
ing unknown, disappeared to the west
ward. Later reports say that Brain
tree and Coggeshall had been hit by
! bombs. but that nobody was hurt anC
the damage was slight. At that time
the hostile aircraft seemed to be fly
ing in the direction of Harwich. upol
which the Germans made an aerial at
tack on November 10, according to al
announcement by the Berlin war Office
at that time

Are Women Naturally Despondent?

A prominent writer so claims. Wo-
men are constituted with delicate
organism and in nine cases out of 10
mental depression may be attributed
to an abnormal condition of the sys-
TEN, which expresses itself in nervous
ness, sleeplessness, backache, head
aches, causing constant misery and as
a result dependency. Lydia E. Pink
ham s Vegetable Compound, simple
remedy made from roots and herbs, is
the one great remedy for this condi-
ton. 1t goes to the root of the trou-
BILE and overcomes dependency.

LAND FOR SETTLERS.

There is still plenty of room for
more settlers in this, the bismarck
district of North Dakota. as the fol-
lowing table shows. Now is the
golden time of opportunity for set
tiers in one of the finest districts OF
the whole Northwest. Now is the
time for prospective home seekers to
find rich, splendid land that wilt yield
an abundance CT crops, end the lime
to enjoy the privilege of picking and
choosing in order to Obtain j'St what
one likes, with the special advon-
tages which one may nave in mind
as desirable for his po.nt of view.
Later, when the state becomes more
thickly settled this will probably not
be the case. Tic following shows

land in the Bismarck district by coun-
ties, on June 80, together with the
