From the natural impulse to "put some thing on" a painful spot all applications for the relief of pain have arisen. The most successful h&ve ever been poul tices or plasters, and the best of these is Benaon'i Porous Plaster. No other has anything like the same power as a curative agent it is highly and scientifically medicated, and its standard is advanced year by year. Use Benson's Plaster for coughs, colds, chest diseases, rheumatism, grip, neuralgia, kidney trouble, lame back, and other'ail. ments that make Winter a season of suffer ing and danger. It' relieves and cures quioker than any other remedy. Do not accept Capsicum, Strengthening or Belladonna plasters in place of Benson's, as th«y possess none of its curative power. Insist on having the genuine. The people of every civilized land have testified, for years to the superlative merit of Benson's Plasters and 5,000 physioians and druggists .of this country have declared them worthy of public confidence. In official comparisons with others, Ben son's Plasters have been honored with fifty-five highest awards.

The action and story of the play occur two days before this famous batr tie, and while General Hooker and Gen enrl Bragg were manouvering for por tions. Special incident around which the play hinges is that of the delivery of an important message to General Hooker, which has to be carried through the confederate lines.

A young union officer succeeded in passing through the ene my's lines with an lentire trainload of soldiers, he telling the confederates that it was supplies and amunition for Gen eral Bragg.

Sioux City, Dec. 28.—'The first contest on the Titus amendment question to be decided wan decided at Orange City to day. P. D. Vanooster, who has been county attorney of Sioux county, con tested the right of A. Tepask, republican, who was elected last November, to assume the duties of the office. The contest board was made np of William Dealy and I.. M. Black, of Orange City, and John Hutchinson, of Hawurden. The case was urged for several days, five attorneys appearing. The court found that the Titus amendment was carred and extended the office of the incumbent officer one year, and that Mr. Tepaska has no claim whatever to the office. The case will he appealed to the district court and, if necessary, to the supreme court. Cut this out and take it to W.

AUDITOR M'QUISTQN WILL RESIGN Believes It the Only Way to Avoid Possible Complications and Litigation. County Auditor John S. McQuiston, whose term of office it was supposed would expire January 7, but the tenure of which has been made uncertain be cause of the Titus amendment, has de cided to tender his resignation to take eflect January 7. The resignation will be presented to the board of supervisors either at its Monday meeting or at the first meeting in January. To a reporter, Mr. McQuiston said: "I intended to step down and out of the office January 7 and to take up my new duties as a deputy in the office of the state treasurer without oflering any objection to the succession of Mr. Cope, should it be found tha*. under the Titus amendment I am entitled to serve long er in the auditor's office, and had hoped that my resignation would not be neces sary, thinking that possibly the muddle would be straightened out by that time and the board could fill the vacancy by the appointment of Cope. "It is my opinion and the opinion of those I have consulted that the only way to avoid all possibility of wholesale complications, if not litigation, is for county officers to resign aud to permit the board to appoint the person elected to succeed them. Should it so happen that the incumbents will not resign, then it strikes me that it is best for the boards of supervisors not to pass on the bonds of the persons elsected to succeed them because it is the rule that all offi cers are elected to serve until their suc cessors are elected, anu have qualified and without the approval of bonds the qualification is incomplete and 1 believe the incumbents can go on and legally discharge the duties of their offices. The safe way, however, is for incumbents to resign and for the boards to appoint the persons elected to succeed them."— Des Moines Leader.

Funeral services were held at the home of the deceased Wednesday even ing'and the remains were interred in our cemetery the same evening.
