BLUNT-The local authorities are look
ing for a swindler who attempted to vic
timize a Blunt bank out of s25. The
stranger presented a draft for this amount
purporting to nave been issued by a Salem
bank, but the bank officials here would
not cash it until they sent 1t to Salem for
collection, only to be advised that the
draft was worthless. While in Blunt the
swfndler evidently secured possession of a
blank check of the Dakota State bank, for
a few days later a bank at Midland sent
to the bank here a check for $12, which
the Midland bank had paid in the belief
that the swindler had money in the Blunt
bank. 1t is reported here that the swind-
Ter also victlmized a bank at Philip.

and hunting resorts in this part Of the
state. The wells are each eight inches in
diameter. The new well has a flow Of
such force that the water is thrown a dis
lance OF four feet above the top Of the
well casing. 1t is estimated that it has a
flow of 1000 gallons per minute.

u. one of the pioneer residents of Mont
rose and vicinity. died suddenly as the re-
suit OF a stroke of paralysis. She had
been in the business district only a few
hours before her death and expressed her
self as feeling fine. She is survived by five
children. two of whom are residents Of
Montrose. Mrs. Cross and husband came
to the Montrose. territory in 1882, locating
on a farm, which they conducted until

NEXT SPECIAL NUMBER

Mitchell. S. D.. Sept. is. The
Mitchell corn palace. September q to
October 2, is the next big amusement
event in South Dakota. INC the general
entertainment offerings this veal are
greater than ever before. The corn
palace, in itself, is a work of art and
worth coming miles to see. Farmers
in the vicinity of Mitchell have had
unusual success in growing the fancy
varieties of corn, used in the decorating
and it is claimed that nothing so elab-
crate in the way of corn effects ever
have been displayed in the United
states The beautiful palace of corn,
as an attraction is reinforced by a big
daily program. including Signor Fer
rulo's famous band, high class vaude-
vile numbers and the Corn Patch"
the carnival section. Mitchell con-
Adently expects that the attendance
this yea will break all previous rec
ords, although the event has been a
great drawing card in past years.

MEANEsT MAN LOCATED;
STILL RUNNING AT LARGE

Aberdeen, S. d. Sept. 1S.-The mean
est man in South Dakota is running at
large in Brown county. Late In the
evening Hugo Hazel and E. M. Chris
tian, two young Aberdeen business
men, with two Groton young women
were a~utomobiling, and when they
neared a bridge across the James river
near Groton, Heel. who was driving
the car at a rate of about 25 miles an
holr. slowed up to cross the bridge.
Feering ahead he discerned some OBJ
stacle on the bridge. Stopping the car,
he and Cristian got out to investigate.
They found four strands of heavy wire,
such as that used for telephone or tele-
graph wires, strung across the bridge
and tightly fastened to the Orders on
either side. The wires were placed Just
high enough to strike a person riding
in an automobile cross the face, and
If Heel had not stopped his machine
a serious accident would have occurred.
1t Is believed the person stringing the
wires may have planned on robbery.

SCARCITY INDICATED OF
ALFALFA AND CORN SEED

Pierre. S. d.. Sept. 1s.-A represen-
tative of n of the large seed houses
has been in this vicinity buying al.
falfa seed ana corn from last years
crops, paying fancy prices, He claims
that Iowa will produce very little safe
seed corn this year, and that alfalfa
seed is a very vague prospect in the
entire northwest this year because of
continued wet weather. The killing
frost two weeks ago in northwestern
Iowa, he said, had put that entire ter
ritory under the necessity of going
outside for seed corn next spring.
Farmers here feel confident that they
will have an abundance of safe seed
in this years crop and little hesita-
ton is shown now in selling the emer-
gency corn held over from last year.
Local authorities claim that persons
who use last years corn for seed are
running the risk Of having weak
plants, even If tests show terminating
qualities.

Public Market Booths
Ready For Occupancy
Plans Adopted In Eugene

Eugene also feels the need of a pub.
lie market. Sheds have been erected
and the market. uhEer the supervision
of certain municipal regulations, will
be ready for business early next month
The Eugene idea of handling a public
market, according to ordinances passed
is as follows:
The market shall be under the charge
and control of the local Pomona grange.
Producers may sell through an agent
but this agent must be on flat salary,
and not sell on commission.
Only produce raised or manufactured
from produce raised'by those associated
with the public market can be offered
for sale.
The stalls in the market are to rent
for % cents day. Several members of
"a family may sell from the same stall,
but an outsider will also have to pay
25 cents, if selling from a stall par
TALLY occupied. Associations pay 80
cents day for stalls
The grange shall appoint a market
master and his assistant, to be con.
firmcd by the city council. The grange
shall decide the amount of salary to
be paid them, and they shall have con.
troll and entire management.
The market shall be open on Satur.
days from o clock a. m. until 0 clock
p. m, and on otner days, except Sun.
days, from Z O'Clock u. m. until 1890
O'Clock p. m.
There shall be no outcry or public
music to attract business, but the pro.
dueer may place signs over his stall
calling attention to his goods.
All poultry for sale must bear the
name and address of the seller; eggs
must bear the name OF the producer
and storage eggs must be properly
marked.
No produce may be sold at prices
higher than the prevailing prices.

Stomach rouble
Due to Acidify

Stomach troubles such as Indigestion
wind, and stomachache are simply evi'
dence and fermentation is taking place
in the food contents of the stomach
causing the formation of gas and acids
Wind distends the stomach, and causes
that full, oppressive feeling sometimes
known as heartburn, while the acid ir'
ritates and inflames the delicate lining
of the stomach. The trouble lies en-
tirely in the fermenting food. Such
fermentation is unnatural, and acid for
nation is not only unnatural, but may
involve most serious consequences If not
corrected. To stop or prevent fer
mentation and to neutralize the acid, a
teaspoonful of bisurated magnesia,
probably the best and most effective
corrector Of acid stomach known, should
be taken in a quarter of a glass OF
water Immediately after eating, or
whenever wind or acidity is felt. This
stops the fermentation, and neutrallzes
the acidity in a few moments. BIS
urated magnesia can be obtained from
anv druggist. 1t enables the stomach

hindered by poisonous gas and danger
