Mr. Mills, remarking that it would be

country for representative, named A. S.
McKenzic, of Yelm, for the house.
Joseph Deer nominated T. P. Mentzer,
of Tcnino. On motion of M. E. Reed,
both wen nominated unanimously.
Mr. Menlzer was called out and made a
telling lin.li' speech, creating an excell
ent iiiiprci'Siim. "What's the matter
with Mentzer? He's all right," was
shouted as they retired.
M. J. Gordon, who was a state sen

AsIc Your Friends
Who have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla
what tliey think of it, and tlie replies
will be positive in its favor. One has
been cured of indigestion and dispepsia.
another finds it indispensable for sick
headache, others report remarkable
cures of scrofula, salt rheum and other
blood diseases, still others will tell you
that it overcomes "that tired feeling,"
and so on. Truly, the best advertising
which Hood's Sarsaparilla receives is
the hearty endorsement of the army of
friends it has won by its positive med
icinal merit.
A I'rolMble Divorce Case.
Judge Palmer of Sioux Palls has been

unexpected return of tl'c wife to her

A Great Show.
The greatest of all shows this year

expense in gathering what is conceded
to be the best display oyer within the
walls of the building. The whole world
has been ransacked for novelties that
will not only please, but instruct as well.
The collection showing a fac simile of
the abodes of the Clill' Dwellers is alone
well worth several times the price of
admission. This unknown race is tho
marvel of the scientific age, and it is
only within the past few years that
anything definite has boon known about
them.

Fell Dead.
These words are very familiar to our
readers, as not a day passes without the
report of the sudden death of some
prominent citizen. Tho explanation is
"heart disease." Therefore beware if
you have any of the following symp
toms: short breath, pain in side, smoth
ering spoils, swollen ankles, asthmatic
breathing, weak and hungry spoils,
tenderness in shoulder or arm, flutter
ing of heart or irregular pulse. These
symptoms mean heart disease. Tho
most reliable remedy is Dr. Miles' New
Heart Cure, which has saved thousands
of lives. Book of testimonials free at

LADIES FAIR COMMISSION.
ftlltchell IiccomeH Interested in tlie Work—
Organization Formed.
The ladies of Mitchell have as yet
had 110 opportunity to demonstrate tiu'ir
fealty to tho Ladies World's Fair Com
mission. From the interest manifested
last evening at the court house we be
lieve the ladies of this city will raise
sufficient funds to place our town on a
par with other towns in the state which
have already made a start, in this di
rection. The warm weather had a
good deal to do in preventing a major
ity of the ladies from being present,
if®
however there wore enough there to
show the willingness and desire to as
sist all they could in promoting the
work laid out for them to do. Mrs.
Geo. A. Silsby, commissioner for this
district, called the meeting to order and
appointed Mrs. Dr. I. Windle as tem
porary chairman and Mrs. P. A Bid
well temporary secretary. Mrs. Gov. rri
Mellette of Pierre and Mrs. J.S. Oliver of
Huron were invited to attend the meet
ing and oiler some suggestions as to
what was being done and what would -I
oe expected of this city. The chair
man called on Mrs. Mellette to make a
few remarks relative to the object of
the meeting. She spoke of the work
that had been done by the committee,
of the benefits that would naturally be -i
derived from an exhibition and believed
it to be the duty of every South Dakota
woman to take an interest in this work. ssj
After she had spoken on other subjects
she gave way to Mrs. Oliver. She gave
a report of her yisit to Chicago, saying
when first she went there she felt very
much discouraged because we were HO
far behind with the work. But after
having talked with several ladies she ,'
felt more encouraged to go on with the
work. Mrs. Oliver gave an adequate I
and interesting description of South
Dakota's building and how it was to be
built and decorated, both inside and
out. The second floor is to be given
entirely over to the ladies and she ex
plained thoroughly what the commis- ji
sion expected of the ladies of South
Dakota. The methods pursued in other I:
towns to raise funds was to give enter
tainments of different kinds and in this
way quite a sum had been realized.
This was offered as a suggestion that if.
Mitchell might follow or not, just as
they thought best. There is a pleasant
rivalry between the ladies of the Black
Hills and this side of the river to see
who can raise the most money, and so
far we are ahead. Mrs. Oliver was
thoroughly conversant with her subject !,
and talked very entertainingly, and un
der the guidance of these two ladies
there is no doubt but what the exhibi-::
tion will be vigorously pushed forward
to a successful completion. Mrs. R. T.
Robinson made a motion that Mitchell
ladies join in the work and it was unan-
iraously carried. A business organiza
tien was then formed with the follow
ing officers:
President—Mrs. A. M. Bowdle.
Secretary—Mrs. P. A. Bidwell.
Treasurer Mrs. Dr. I. Windlp.
Tho above officers, with Mrs. Silsby, it
were made an executivecommitteewith:i
power to appoint other committeessuch^
as entertainments, antiquities, and adis
play of fruits, fine arts, etc.. At another
meeting the committees would be en
dorsed by the ladies. As to the security of
the funds Mrs. Oliver said that the
treasurer. Mrs. Bennett, had given
bonds for $10,000 and the money would
hi safe in her hands. An organization
having been completed we expect to see
the ladies make things hum.
