Briggs, representing the Merchants Retail as sociation of South Dakota, is travel ing about Soutn Dakota, seeming sig natures to a petition under the initia tive provision of the constitution ask ing the legisalturr to amend thu exist ing laws on exemptions from execu tion. The merchants have made sev eral unsuccessful attempts to have this law changed by the legislature and now they propose to present a peti tion that can not be ignored. The present law, passed in 1W90, it is claimed, was adapted to entirely dif ferent conditions than those now found in the prosperity of the state. Under that law absolute exemption from at tainment is given libraries worth |200, wearing apparel, provisions and fuel for a year's supply for the family of the debtor, a homestead worth $5,000, and in addition ier»onal property amounting to $7ru if the debtor is a married man and fttOO if be is single.

Brooks, Buspected that he bad made1 for this shack as he was well known to them and they knew he had been here before. He was reported to have been seen yesteiday, going in that direction and Van Horn, Hess and Brooks drove to the shack. They were well armed aud picked up a farmer on the way, who took them to the place. The farmer fiist rode ahead and reconoitered but the door was shut and the curtain in the window was drawn. Nothing could be ascer tained so Van Horn, Broeks and the farmer approached the shack caiefully keeping a sharp lookout. It was rain ing and the men were obliged to wipe the water from their gun sights. They tried the door and found it locked so Van Horn and Brooks aimed at the door and the other party kicked it op en, and lan to one aide pulling his gun. For a moment all was still and then a man's arm reached out of the door way and fixed two shots from a heavy revolver at one of the parties. Tbey returned the fire, one bullet piercing the arm. The murderer as'it proved to be then quickly tired three shots at the other fellows with no effect other than a return fire, and bullets went through the shack where Lansing's body was. These were followed by ahrieks and the arm disappeared, the gun falling to the floor and a commo tion as Lansing staggered and fell on the bed. The door swung shut and several more snots were fired by the at tacking party through the building and one party went after assistance. 8everal other posses were rounded up and drove to the scene at once, the sheriff being with them. The murderer meanwnlle bad been groaning and calling for assignee, saying he was helpless. He was told to throw the gnn out but answered. "I can't reach it." Of course he could Pot be believed and after the other V.' cW v 5 :h parties arrived, volleys of shots were fired througa the bonee. As Lansing could or would not come oat of the shack the rear of the building was net in flames with beroHenp procured by one of the parties. While replenish ing the flames Lansing conld be seen through the window, lying on the bed. As ne did not move, the fire was quenched and the poeee cautiously en tered. They found Lansing on the bed bleeding from five wounds. He was helpless and in a stupor. A half filled bottle of chloroform, showed that he had drank of it after being wound ed. An examination who wed that he had }een shot three times through the chest, once through the arm and through the ankle. The last shot he had received evidently while lying on the bod. He nad taken off his shoes, socks and coat and had been Bleeping, his long walk evidently having tired him and made him footsore as he is a man weighing over two hundred pounds and had not slept the night oefore. He had probably awakened at the sound of the searching party He was lnought to town after dark and lived a couple of hours.

Deafness Cannot he Cured by local applications, as they oannut 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 mucous lining of the Eu stachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is en tirelv closf d, deafness is the result, and unless the inflamation can be taken out and this tube ie 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 mucous surfaoes. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free. P. J. CH ENEY & CO., Toledo, O.
