A young man giving his name as
Frank Simonds, and his age as %,
called at the Offices of Madison ply
sicians and begged that they give him
poison. He declared that capitalists
are striving to kill him. The mental
condition of the young man is belieY-
ed to be due to the excessive heat Of
the past week. He claims to have
come to South Dakota from Water

and had a suitcase full Of wearing
apparel. The Lake county author

PICTURES MADE IN VALLEY
ATPALACE THEATRE FRIDAY

The Land Just Over Yonder which
is to be shown at the Palace theatre
tonight, is from the story Of tha. name
by Peter B. kyne. 1t appeared in
the Saturday Evening Post and IS
considered one of Kyne's best short
stories.
Arthur n. Millett, who takes the
part of the lovable old desert pros
pector, has always had the lure of
the desert, and whenever he has the
opportunity to get a pack burro and
90 prosnecting, always avails himself
of it. He never tells anyone where
he is going and always comes back
with interesting tales of his expert
ences.
Mr.. Millett had a little time be-
tween pictures last week and decided
to take q trip to "The Land Just Over
Ionder." He is now out on the Mo
lave desert and is just as likely to
show up here as any other place with
in a week or so.
This versatile man can act the So
ciety favorite as well as he can the
old desert prospector. His work in
Damaged Goods" The Quest ''The
Divinity of Motherhood" will be re-
membered by many of the picture
fans.
The picture to be shown Friday has
a great deal of local interest, as many
81 the scenes were taken in and around
n Certro and also near Coyote Wells,
some 1900 people being used at dill
ferent times in the picture.
A great deal of money was spent
in this production amongst the Val
ley merchants and, in addition to 1t
being a wonderful desert picture, 1t
is deserving of a packed house.

CIVIL WAR MAJOR GENERAL
is DETAINED IN GERMANY
By Carl W. Alderman

United Press Staff Correspondent
Duisburg, Germany, Nov 10 (By
a little apartment on Hin
dcnburg strasse today sits an old
American general, who is waiting for
the war to end so he can return to
the United States.
This aged hero of Lincoln's day is
Major General Osterhaus, oriy sur
viving major general of the Civil "ar;
father Of Admiral Osterhaui OF the
United States navy, and gra ldfather
of Lieutenant Osterhaus, u. S. n. Ma
ior General Osterhaus will soon be
95.
The general, whose hair and beard
are creamy white, sat in his library
reading war news when American
newspaper men called today to pay
their respects. He is vigorous and
alert and appears still to be in his
seventies. His joy at seeing Ameri-
cans was great and he beamed with
happiness. Repeatedly he asked that
his greetings be sent to America and
to say that he was "going back as
soon as the war was ended"
Major General Osterhaus discussed
many phases of the war with the
greatest zeal. He is a great admirer
Of Field Marshal Won Hinderbu s and
he believes the war would nave been
ended long ago if HindoH&'Ag had
been made chief of the general staff
at the beginning.
"Hindenburg is the greatest general
the world has produced" he said. "He
would have defeated Napoleon the
first day."

/ Sebastian Maure is a man with nc
respect for God and has never known
the softening influence of good
woman's love. He is the type of man
who takes a keen delight in realizing
and knowing that he is held in awe
by all those about him, and extends
that influence still further by his dar-
ing books. Society, with its usual
inconsistency, lionizes Maure and
everywhere he is catered to, all of
which he receives with a bored air.
Tren comes Ghirlaine Bellamy, q
young American girl, who, with her
aunt, Mrs. Bellamy, is visiting Rome.
She is being courted by Vincent Pam
fort, a young English officer of good
standing, and, while she likes him,
still she hesitates to give him the an
swer he wishes, but before he leaves
for England she promises to marry
him. How she affects Maure's life
and is the cause of his rejuvenation,
which later turns to love, is splen
didly portrayed in the Red Feather
feature "The Isle of Life"

FOX FARM STARTED IN
 THE koYuKUk COUNTRY.

Advices from the Koyukuk country are to the effect that Roy King has started fox farm about fourteen miles above Bettles, on the Koyukuk river. He really started the ranch about three years ago, but his stock of foxes became so large that he found it necessary to ship a large quantity of wire fencing in from the outside, and is now engaged in enlarging his corrals.
 When MT. King started the fox rais- ing business he had only a few red fox and couple of cross foxes He now has eight silver grey adults, three of which are nearly pure black. In fact fur experts pronounce one of the foxes as being the most valuable ever seen in interior Alaska.
 The Koyukuk Is a good fox country. MT King is therefore adding to his stock by trapping the animals as well as raising them. He now has three filters of silver grey pups. One of the most valuable of the pups, however, was killed by it's mother.

SALT AS REMEDY TUBERCULOSIS
 SWEATS

BERLIN, Aug. 24. - Encouraging results from the administration of common salt as a remedy against the enfeebling night sweats of cOnsump- lives and against excessive perspira- ton in the cases Of marching soldiers are reported by Company Surgeon Link in an article in the Munich Me dical Weekly.
 Dr. Links first experiments were made with sufferers from tuberCulO sis. It occurred to him that their ex- cessive fatigue mornings might we'll be due to the loss of salt, and that this might be counteracted by salt ra- ton. He began by giving a level tea spoonful of salt (about five grams) in small glass of water just before patient retired. The result was a greater freshness and absence of weariness on the following morning but the patients either had no night sweats or else very slight ones. All patients except those suffering also from stomach catarrh and high fever stood the salt dosing without any i'll effects whatever.

ALASKA HUSk|E FINDS FRIEND
 AT FRONT

In letter to John Nestcr. and ~ rit ten at some point on the Flanders front, Father Bernard mentions d sin, gular development in connection with the shipment of Nome dogs to the French war zone. This consists of the remarkable fact that Father Bernard found one dog formerly owned by himself among the animals employed in the French service.
 Concerning the discovery of the dog Bernard says that he was for two months with the French forces in Alsace and the Vosges mountains. There he lived a life similar to that in Alaska, and was engaged in train ing the soldiers how to handle the dog teams.
 Much to his surprise, among the 435 dogs brought to that section he found the dog mentioned, which he formerly owned and drove in Alaska The animal was named Sussuk, and re ported to the name Bernard recOg- nized him immediately. He says that the hardest part of his work in con- nection with the dogs was teaching the men how to drive them. He fin- ally succeeded in the task, however, and was later transferred to the British, where he was at the time of writing He says the dogs were em- ployed in hauling food, shells and did very good work. There was much snow in the Vosges and things were very much like in Alaska.
 The dogs are reported to have done very good work during the winter cam paign. Bernard was sent back to the British at the end of February last and has since been engaged as in terpreter.
 He says that he is now well used to the smelling, as he has been on the front nearly all the time SO a few shells do not bother him much any more He says the Germans sent eight hundred shells into the camp where
