AMKS, IOWA.What promises to prove an ex tensive swindle came to light here to-day. Two silver-tongued men secured signatures of 300 county teachers to notes for the payment of a membership in a summer school to be held In Ames by the National Reading club next summer. The members were to receive ten books besides a course of studies. A smooth agent secured the confidence of County Superintendent Weltv who was used in deceiving their victims. The swindlers discounted the notes at the banks, clearing up $2,300, and decamped. The swindle was first disclosed when it was found the notes were altered from a year to thirty-day litres, JOHN OTT'S $2,000 How a Lat Long Prairie Resident Re covered His Purse Full of Drafts. IOWA FALLS, IOWA.Losing a wallet con taining $2,000 in the Illinois Central station in this city, tracing a chance acquaintance who found the purse to Waterloo and recovering the money while the finder was flashing a $20 bill and "setting 'em up to the house," is the usus ual experience of John Ott of this place. Mr. ott recently returned from Long Prairie, Minn., where he has been living for several years, having sold out there. With the proceeds of his sale, amounting to about $2,000, of which all but $100 was in drafts, he came here to visit at his old home. Ott recovered his drafts and all the money but $5, which had gone for drinks. The "chance acquaintance" refused to give his name, and elated over the recovery of his money, Ott declined to prosecute. N MM something to stimulate the appetite and strengthen digestion. Theories are all right In their way, of course, but there is nothing like a practical demonstration to prove anything in this world clearly. For example, when a young cavalry officer, who has been serving in our troops lu tho Philippine islnnds, comes home weak ened from fever and the new life of those far-off islands, he is inclined to have faith in the remedy which restored his health. You will find our story told for us in the follow ing latter: Ft. Keogh, Mont,. Nov. 14, 1003. Dear Sirs: When I was In the Philippine islands I contracted a fever which left me very weak and much run down in health. Since returning to this country I have been troubled with indigestion and general weak ness of the entire system. I had tried various tonics and remedies, but it was not until 1 took Ozomnlslon that re lief came to me. I needed something not only to stimulate my appetite for food and strengthen my digestion, but also to furnish my entire system with nourishment especially intended to give vitality. I found that Ozo mulsion contained the properties of both food and medicine. It increased my appetite at once and I found I had no trouble In digesting my food. This, in itself, was a great deal to me, but when I Boon found I was gaining strength every day and feeling more like myself, I could not help but wonder at the wide scope of Ozomnlslon. From a practical test I can unqualifiedly praise Ozotnulslon- Very gratefully yours, (Signed) E. M. Sealey. Troop M, Sixth Cavalry. Tho reason why this young cavalryman was so greatly benefited by Osomulelon is because Ozomnlslon offers, in their best form, for the system, "cod liver oil and hypophos phltes. In Its perfectly emulsified form Or.o mulsion does not tax the stomach and con sequently the oil finds Its way speedily into the blood, where it goes to all parts of the system and Increases vitality and resistive power.

Indigestion Is often only the result of a lowered vitality, and when we give the system vital strength, digestion responds to the treatment as well as all other parts of the body. We think that in the foregoing letter on* of the most important statements is that the patient needed something not only to stimu late his appetite, but also to furnish the entire system with nourishment, especially intended to give vitality. His whole system was evidently languishing for the want of nourishment, and this is the real trouble with hundreds of thousands of people to-day who are in poor health. Taking powerful drugs and various specifics does not seem to do one-half the good that it does to take Ozomnlslon and thus supply the system with Just what It needs most. A splendid example of the nourishing pow ers of Ozoroulslon is afforded by cases of children who do not thrive in growth. Their food does not seem to nourish them and they do not make satisfactory progress until they take Ozomulsion. They will respond to Ozoroulslon, however, and soon become vig orous and In good flesh, with a good appe tite, when, no other remedy seems to do any good. You must remember, however, that Osomul sion is peculiar to itself and no other emul sion will take Its place. Ozomnlslon Is the best emulsion of cod liver oil in the world to-day. It has surpassed all others In merit and is rapidly gaining ground in public fa vor as it is becoming better known. Druggists sell Ozomnlslon at O cents and Free SampleBottle If your druggist does not keep Ozomulsion in stocky he can easily order it for you or If you desire a small sample to see what it is like, you can obtain the same by mention ing the name of this paper in which you read this advertisement and sending yonr name and address to the OZOMULSION 00., OS Pine St, New York City.

Drilling to Started South of Aber- deen Next WeekBankers and Merchants Put Up/the Money for Preliminary Work and Will Organ- ize a Regular Company if the Pros- pects Justify It. Special to The Journal. Aberdeen, S. D., March 14.A syndicate of Aberdeen business men has been formed and leases of land secured for the thoro investigation and exploration of the ex tent and quality of the veins of coal struck south of this city last fall and winter in artesian wells. The leases, which, run fifty year3 under- the condi tions usual in such cases, .coyer several quarter-sections of land, and- the -work of., drilling and taking out cores of the formation down to the coal and thru it will begin next week. C. M. Hopkins secured the leases, and the men associated with him in the in vestigation to be made are P. B. Gan non, president of the First National bank J. H. Buttle, cashier of the same institu tion W. G. Wells, president of the Aber deen Wholesale Grocery company S. W.

They purpose to put up money enough for a complete examina tion of the prospects, and, if the finds warrant, will organize a company for the opening and operation of the mines. W. L.. Cochrane, city superintendent of schools of Aberdeen, is calling the atten tion of the citizens thru interviews in the News and reports to the board of education to. the fact that the city is confronted with a. serious proposition In providing room for its school children, notwithstanding the fact that a large building was provided last year. There are just ten 'vacant. seats in the school buildings of Aberdeen, and there are many children unprovided for, the number be ing placed at 125 to 150, tho the normal accommodates over one hundred in its model school and nearly as many more are in parochial and private schools. It is deemed necessary to build another large school the coming year to accommodate ALMOST A MURDER Prominent Farmer of Minnehalia County Under Arrest for Stabbing. SIOUX FALLS. S. D.Assault with a dan gerous weapon is the charge which has been preferred against Hardy Hughey a prominent farmer living near Humboldt, this county. It is sfild that had it not been for the fact that Hughey's victim wore unusually heavy clothing the charge against him would have been murder or manslaughter. Hughey and the Teghtmejer brothers had a dispute over a rented farm. This resulted In :t pitched battle between the brothers and Hughey and two companions. During the encounter Hughey struck one of the brothers in the face with a heavy rock, splitting the cheek bone. At this juncture an employee of the brothers took a hand in the battle, when Hughey is alleged to have plunged a fcnlfe into Ms abdomen. The heavy clothing worn by Pease is believed to have saved "his life. There is every reason to believe that a "fire bug" is operating at Brandon on the Omaha rail road. The latest work of the fiend was to burn the grain elevator of the American Elevator com pany. The flames were discovered and extin guished before serious damage had been done. Once before an attempt was made to burn the same building. Some t^me ago the*stores of W. J. Jones, S. J. Erlckson and Mr. Crafts at Brandon were burned and it is believed that all the fires were set by the same person.

Dissatisfaction, Says, I Centered at DeadwoodHe Returns for an Amicable Settlement, but I Pre- pared for a Finish Fight if I I NecessaryHis Populari ty Shown by His Welcome Home. Special to The Journal. Deadwood, S.D., March 14.Congressman E. W. Martin has arrived from Washing ton, D. C. He was given a cordial recep tion at the station, many of his friends as sembling to greet him. How long he will remain depends largely upon the local situation politically. "My friends haw been conducting a vig orous and efficient campaign in my be- half," said Mr .Murtin,"and I.fel.t it was due to them as" well as my.Opponents, that I take the field in person. 1 consider the opposition locally as confined to a few who have disagreed with me in some of my reepmmendations for appointments, by the president, and I also find that the only op position is in Deadwood. I have arranged with my colleagues. Senator Gamble, Sen ator Kittredge and Congressman Burke, to look after my affairs in congress. "I am fully disposed to compromise with my local opponents on' any reasonable terms, provided they are inclined that way. If not I am also prepared to fight to the finish. My fight, will be conducted from the Cheyenne to the Belle Fourche and already my men are on the line and en trenched. As I said, I desire to settle this controversy amicably and shall give the opposition every opportunity it desires to know that I am inclined that way. I can not say at this time how long I will be In Deadwood. I am satisfied that the only fight on me is here and that there is no disaffection at any other point in the Black Hills." Had there been any doubt as .to the pop larity of Mr. Martin with trie rank and file of the republican party in his home town it would have been dissipated by the expressions heard from republican voters upon his arrival. Four years ago when Mr. Martin was first mentioned for a member of congress his candidacy was violently opposed and by practically the same element that is arranged against him at this time. Then without any organiza tion, practically a novice in politics, un heard of as a successful attorney, Mr. Martin triumphed over his opponents with ease. To-day he has a capable organiza tion and many of those who opposed him in 1900 are among his strongest .adherents at this time.

Mr. Millspaugh contended that the acquirement of learning for learning's sake served.no. good end, and that education was only valuable In so far as It fitted the learner to discharge efficiently his duty to himself and to his fellows. He contended, however, that that object, was gained hy present educational methods, but urged greater atten tion to the teaching of manual training In the schools.

VALSTEAD IN REDWOOD His Managers Want His Sta nd Against Canadian Reciprocity Indorse d. REDWOOD FALLS, MINN.It transpires that Congressman Volstead, who "franked" a lot of personal political appeals to friends In Redwood county, asking them to watch the caucuses and conventions, also sent out another style of let ter to prominent political workers, but paid the postage oh the letters. Mr, Volstead's managers In Redwood county are unmoved in their determination to force to morrow's convention here to adopt resolutions Indorsing his stand against Canadian reciprocity, notwithstanding the fact that they have been told that such a move will leave a lot of sore spots and make Mr. Volstead a good many ene mies out of voters who thus far have felt frieild ly toward blm. The managers deply noncha lantly "We do not care. We can renominate and re elect Mr. Volstead without the help of Red wood county." The convention to-morrow is likely to develop a lively scrap.

Acts Like Oxygen MARCH IOO SKffSf^a TOWNSITE CASE FOOfiYEARSOLD FORT BUFORD LITIGATION AGAIN BEFORE A COMMISSIONER. Effort to Have the Town on the Line, S that Whisky Conld Sold on the Montana Side, Thwarted by the Great NorthernTownsite Men Ex- pect to Win Against Mercer. Special to The Journal. Fargo, N. D., Maroh 14.Colonel C. A. Lounsberry, special examiner, left last evening for Wllliston to become a witness for the occupants at the hearing of the Buford townsite case before United States Commissioner Brownson. The case has hung*fire about four years, and during that time various attempts have been made to change the townsite at Buford to the Montana line. At one time l%e Great Northern sunk a well on the line in an at tempt to secure water that was free from alkali and spent $13,000 unsuccessfully. The company gave the proposition up and as far as the railroad is conoerned Buford will remain the station. There was an effort to have the town on the line so that whisky could be sold on the Montana side. The Great Northern was not after that kind of a place and its disapproval is a black eye for the proposition. The Buford townsite is government land and when the entry which, was allowed more than a year ago, is adjusted to the public surveys the occupants will obtain title to their lots on payment of their pro portion of the expenses of entry, includ ing the townsite survey and costs growing out of the litigation. John Mercer, who went to Buford as a soldier thirty years ago and was custodian of the buildings, first under the war and after under the interior departments, is protesting against the townsite entry, claiming the right to make a homestead entry, embracing the land on which his buildings and others sold by the Mlnot landoffice people, stand. The townsite peo ple say the act opening the reservation gives them the right to obtain title and there is no other law under which titles can be secured. So far the general land office has sustained their contention and the present hearing is to give Mercer a chance to present his claims and to adjust the lines of the townsite to the public sur vey. The townsite people have a paper, edited by W. R. Mumby,- who lias made a hard fight for four years and feels confident of winning. Independent Elevator Men. The meeting of the independent grain elevator men in Fargo to form a state as sociation was not a success, as the chief promoters of the plan were unavoidably detained. The proposition to establish in dependent or farmers' elevators is meeting with approval and many are being estab lished over the state. O. G. Major, former mid-road candidate for governor, is the organizer and arranged for the erection of a large number this summer. The farm ers' companies seem satisfied with their own local organizations, however, and ap Wilson and ex-Mayor Johnson with the chances in favor of the last named. The withdrawal of Wilson is regarded as more favorable to Wall than Johnson for the friends of Mayor Sweet were back of Wil son and the majority of them would never support Johnson under any circumstances. Twenty candidates were initiated by the Elks.In the basket ball games between the girls of the Fargo high school and those of the Valley City high, the latter won and the Fargo college boys were again defeated by the Fargo highs. Street Railway Developments. Fargoans are beginning to have renewed faith in the street railway proposition. Re cent developments are the passage of the bill introduced by Congressman Spalding for a bridge across the Red river and the arrival here of more steel rails. The com pany first proposed the erection of its own power-house, but a proposition has been submitted by a local concern to furnish power that is so favorable that its accept ance is probable. It has been learned that John Halversen, who committed suicide a few miles north of Fargo last week by drinking liniment, has a wife and son living at Kirkhogan, Minn. The jury brought in a verdict of suicide, tho many think Halvorsen drank the liniment to wind up a long debauch and had no suicidal intent, parently take little interest in the state association. C.
