LONG PRAIRIE

Todd county will vote on the license
question Monday, June 7. This is the
first opportunity the farmers of the
county have had of voting on the Ii

Without any trouble and with very

Fire of unknown origin destroyed
over $4,000 worth of records of H. C.
Andres Todd County Abstract Co., at
midnight last night. "Wednesday,
April 28.) The blaze started in the
back office and rapidly spread to the
front, making total wreck of all the
records and office equipment. The vii
lage records in charge of Recorder
Gillian were also burned. Louis Steen
at the West Hotel telephoned in the
alarm and the fire company was soon
on the scene and had two streams
playing on the blaze. In half an hour
they had it under control but did not
until it had done large damage. The
stock of the City Millinery Co., which
occupied the east half of building was
damaged by smoke. Mr.. Andre was
sleeping in his room at the rear of
his residence when awakened by
Claude Radabaugh. Mr.. Andres car
was run out of the garage before the
flames reached it. 1t is hard to esti-
mate the amount of damage to the alb
stract records as they can only be re-
placed by years of hard labor. Mr..
Andre carried $4,000 insurance on
them alone and 81 900 ON the house.

BELGRADE
(From the Tribune.)

Nelson Bros. had quite an exciting
experience some time ago. While
burning out their meadow the fire,
which to all appearances seemed dead,
was again famed into a sudden blaze
by a whirl of wind which carried the
fire to a nearby hay stack setting it
afire. A team of horses was tied to a
wagon close by and one of the horses
caught fire and ran home in a mad
dened condition setting fire to the
barn from a piece of burning sweat
pad. The timely arrival of neighbors
who put out the blaze, saved them
from a heavy loss. 1t was necessary
to kill the horse, the flesh having been
burned nearly to the bone.

GjaD SAGE TEA IN
uFELESS, GRAY HAIR
Look young! Common garden Sage
and Sulphur darkens SO naturally
nobody can tell

Grandmother kept her hair beautifully
darkened, glossy and abundant with a
brew of Sage Tea and Sulphur. When
ever her hair fell out or took ON that
dull, faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect. BY asking at any drug
storo for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you will get large
bottle of this old-time recipe, ready to
use, for about SO cents. This simple
mixture can be depended upon to restore
m tural color and beauty to the hair and
is splendid for dandruff, dry, itchy scalp
md falling hair.
A well-lnown downtown druggist says
everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur, because it darkens so naturally and
evenly that nobody can tell it has been
applied-it's so easy to use, too. You
si.nply dampen comb or soft brush
and draw it through your hair, taking
ore strand at time. By morning the
nay hair disappears; after another appli-
e. sion or two, it is restored to its natural
ro'or and looks glossy, soft and abun.

"and you may sleep as long as you
like in the morning. I shall break
fast at the club with Mr.. Delorme,
and you need not get up to wait upon
me. Lay out what things will need
now, and let II go at that"
So Feltner went away to his small
room which Moreaux had bad built
expressly for him on the roof of the
building above one of the two rear
rooms of the apartment, and which
was reached only by a special stair
case which led from a closet in that
room.
Moreaux, left to himself, smoked on
In silence and evident enjoyment of
the solitude and isolation that he
could find in no other place.
He was smiling to himself in mental
contemplation of the ultimate discon-
future of the two officers who had
toiled to the top of that tall building
tn see him, when he was startled by
the sound of the bell at the studio
door,
For a moment he sat quite still,
thinking, and then the solution of that
summons at the door suddenly oc-
Cured to him.
Smiling and pulling the cords of his
bathrobe more tightly around him, he
crossed to the door and opened it; but
he placed himself squarely in the
opening, so that the two men who
were outside could not enter. Need
less to say that they were Muchmore
and Bunting.
"Well, what do you want, Much
more?" Moreaux demanded coldly
Don't you think that you have dis
turbed me quite enough for one
night?"
1--WE went to the top of another
building and saw that your skylieht

"Why did you give him key to

to return here after his business was

"Why"
"That is rather an intimate ques-
ton, is it not, lieutenant?"
Don't you appreciate the signif-

"Let me tell you, then, than on in

"That will suffice, lieutenant" Mo-
reaux interrupted him, leaving his
chair suddenly, crossing to the door,
and throwing it open. "This is the
way out, sir, and l will ask you not
to return until you bring that warrant
with you-and the laughter ard deri-
sion of the whole detective bureau
with it."
He turned, then, ignoring Much
more, and addressed Bunting. II have
not the pleasure of your acGuaint-

from his position, stepped forward
quickly then.

Possibly I will be able to make some

you down in the elevator and let you
out of the building. AS for the stolen
jewels, gentlemen" he added when
they were descending the shaft, "i
have an idea that they will soon be
recovered, and that you will get the
credit for it."
Late as the hour was when he re-
tired, Birge Moreaux was seated op-
posite Richard Delorme in the peak
fast room of the club at eight o'clock

breakfast was by his invitation.
"Mr. Delorme," he said when the
morning meal was half consumed,
did you ever know or hear of a Wall
Street man named Mccormack, who
was collector of rare paintings and
rarer jewels? He is dead now, but
his remarkable collection, and the
basement room downtown which he
fitted up to hold 1t, remains in the
memory of great many people. Did
you ever know him."
"Oh, yes. knew him quite well,
Birge," was the instant reply, given
with interest.

Several times"
"And have you listened to his dis
courses upon it?"

very splendid man, loved by every
body who knew him. Did it ever oc-
cur to you that he was what one
might call jewel worshiper?"
Jewel worshiper? l do not re-
member to have heard the expression
until now"
There are many such, Mr.. De-
lorme-and it is never the intrinsic
value of stone that attracts them. 1t
must be unique, unusual. For exam
pie, Mr.. Mccormack once showed me
large diamond that was perfectly
flawless, but which was as yellow as
the yellowest topaz. He considered
it priceless, because there was not
supposed to be another like it in the
world"
Eyes, yes; ! recall it myself"

There were houses with high stoops

GOOD PRICES AT
AUCTION SALE.

The auction sale of John Moliter
last Monday was a hummer, in fact
it was the largest sale held in this
territory for several years. A large
crowd was in attendance, due to the
extensive advertising. Everyone
seemed to be in the buying mood and
all articles put up were sold at good
figures. The total amount Of the sale
was $3.50. Eight horses sold at an
average price Of 5000 head; two
year old colts averaged $3.50; spring
colts from $55 to $3.50, and the hogs,
cattle and chickens sold good.
Capt. d. A. Kramer acted as auc-
tioneer and it was the consensus of
opinion that there is no better auc-
tioneer in the northwest. He kept
the large crowd in good humor and
undoubtedly got larger prices than
any other auctioneer could have OBJ
tanned. Those planning on sales would
do well to secure the services of Cap
tain Kramar. There is no better auc-
tioneer in the business.
The fame Of Capt. D. A. Kramar as
an auctioneer has spread to foreign
lands and some time this month he
goes to Swift Current, Canada, to con-
duct sale for Tom Erickson.-Mc-
