Wells, formerly a wealthy physician of Wheeling, W. Va., from his wife, Maud. Both are socially prominent in the east. Dr. Wells came here with his wife aud two children two years ago. According to witnesses, he announced that he would take up a sheep ranch in the northern part of the state and would live in a sheep wagon. Mrs. Wells declined, and over a year ago was called to her home in Sisteiville, W. Va., on account of the illness of her father. A few weeks ago Dr. Wells commenced divorce pro ceedings charging desertion, cruelty and infidelity, and the wife and chil dren at once returned here. Mrs. Wells was given custody of the children and |100 per month roain tainance. Her attorneys were Bene dict, of Belle Fourche Russell of Dead wood and Garvin, of Wheeling, while Maxwell & Armstrong of Belle Fourche, represented Wells. Mrs. Wells was formerly Maud Mc Farland. daughter of prominent West Virginia parents. Deafness Cannot he Cured by loeal applications, as they reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the ruueous lining of the Eu stachian Tube. When this tube is in tin uied you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirelv closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube is restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucoua surfaoes. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness i caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. F. J. CH BXEY fc CO Toledo, O.

Y., writes: "My little gi*l was greatly ben etitted by taking Foley's Orino Laxa tive, and I hiiik it is the heat remedy for constiprtion and liver trouble."

Anderson BOOZE SEIZED Sheriff Martin and Deputies Capture Contraband Goods at Nunda. Nunda, in the northeast portion of Lake county, on the South Dakota Central railway, is a "dry'' town,but uioie or less booze has been sold and consumed in the village, to tde annoy ance of residents who are opposed to tne liquor traffic. Accordingly, com plaint was made to Ftates Attorney (Jrdhal and he caused to be sworn out of Justice Sponholz's court. search warrants for an investigation of condi tions in the village. Today,May l?th, Norwegian Fouith of July, was to be the scene of a celebration at Nunda. and it was decided by the official* that perhaps it would be an oppoitune time to make a killing at the booze joints. Armed with the search wax rants, Sderiff Martin with three depu ties -J. p, Nighbert, Roy Lee and Walter Winters—went to Nunda last evening, arriving between 7 and 8 o'clock. They immediately get busy and searched three or four places, find ing booze at two places. One of these was the pool hall of Axel Thorson where five barrels of bottled beer was found and confiscated. In order to evade, if possible, the prohibition laws, a club house has its existence in Nunda, with a membership of about fifty. Tnese members are provided with keys to the club room, according to rules usually adopted under similar circumstances in prohibition towiiH. At the club room the officers found five cases and two kegs of feer and one case of hard liquor. Tne liquors wen loaded into a wagon and brought to Madison by N. O. Helgerson, assisted by Walter Winters. The stuff was itored at the police station, and unless claimed within thirty days the drink ables will be destroyed according to law. Sheriff Martin and Deputies Nighbert and Lee remained at Nunda to take in the celebration today and also guard against the sale of liquor in the village during its progress, ami if opportunity offers to seize any con traband goods that may be found. GOOD PROSPECTS Millers Say State Crop Will Be Good On* Wheat Watertown. May 16.—At the closing session of tne eastern South Dakota and Western Minnesota Millers clut, held here yesterday afternoon in the parlors of the Grand notel, all officers were re elected, and Huron chosen as the next meeting place. Following are the officers: George Sexauer of Brookings, president C. A. Laurson, of Howard, vice president Henry Niell of Madison, secretary. The l)oard of control is composed of C. A. Lumm of Aberdeen. J. L. Davis of Revillo, George H. Baxter of Water town, John Larkin of Madison, and H. R. Griffith of Huron. Pleased by the outlook for the north west crop this fall, every miller pre sent was of the opinion that the en i» has not been injured by the dry speil nor the high winds. In light Bandy soils it is probable that some of the grain has been blown from the fields and in heavier soils it has been buried a little deeper, but in either case then nas been no material damage. Crop4 which are out of the ground for a short distance have been withered and flayed by the winds, but the recent shower will offset this damage. The acreage, as discussed by the millers, was thought to be about the same, espe cially in milling wheat. In the north eastern purt of the state, there is a larger acreage of durum wheat, but as this is not desirable for lirst class milling purposes, it was givwi little attention.
