She could not sleep and the eruptions
got sore, and yellow water came out
of them. I had two doctors treat her,
but she grew worse under their treat

This was in February. She has never

CONGRESS
Resume of the Week's
Proceedings.
Washington, Jan. 20—The salary of
the president of the United States was
yesterday fixed at $100,000 per annum,
so far as the senate could fix it, and
salaries of the vice president and the
speaker of the house of representa
tives |15,000 each.
The salary of the chief justice of
the supreme court of the United
States was increased from $13,000 to
$15,000 per annum, and those of asso
ciate justices from $12,500 to $14,500.
These changes were made as amend
ments to the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill, and after
an extended debate amendments al
lowing $5,000 to the vice president
and the speaker of the house for
horses and carriages were stricken
from the bill.
Washington, Jan. 21.—The Browns
ville affair was again before the sen
ate yesterday, Senator Frazier of
Tennessee speaking in opposition to
the passage of any measure for the
re-enlistment of the discharged sol
diers of the Twenty-fifth regiment.
He insisted that the guilt of some
men of the regiment had been estab
lished beyond any doubt, although
the indiviuals who had committed the
crime had not been determined.
The legislative, executive and judi
cial appropriation bill was under con
sideration also.
After adopting v.-ithout opposition
a resolution by which Gov. George F.
Lilley of Connecticut ceases to be a
member of congress, the house of
representatives yesterday proceeded
with the naval appropriation hill.
There were few amendments offered
to the measure, the items under con
sideration being those of maintenance
and improvements to navy yards, sta
tions and other public works of th»
navy.
Washington, Jan. 22.—A debate on
the propriety of increasing salaries of
federal circuit and district judges
consumed nearly the entire time of
the senate yesterday, with the result
that the compensation of the twenty
nine circuit judges was increased
from $7,000 to $9,000, and that of the
twenty-four district judges from
$6,000 to $8,000.
Strictures ppon the efficiency of of
ficers of the navy in the care of ma
chinery of war vessels were uttered
in the house yesterday during the
consideration of the naval appropria
tion bill, with the result that an
amendment was adopted requiring
tiie secretary of the navy annually to
report to congress those instances
where more than $200,000 is expended
for repairs.
After futile efforts to obtain legisla
tion looking to the restoration of ma
rines aboard ships, an amendment
was agreed to prohibiting the pur
chase of powder "manufactured and
sold in violation of" the Sherman
anti-trust law.
The bill was still pending when the
house at 4:44 p. m. adjourned.
Washington, Jan. 23.—Exactly as
reported by committee the naval pro
gram for the fiscal years 1910 was
yesterday adopted by the house of
representatives, and the naval appro
priation bill was passed. The op
ponents of the bill found themselves
in a hopeless minority. The only
vital alteration made in the measure
was the striking out of the provision
restoring marines to naval vessels.
The aggregate amount appropriated
by the bill is $155,000,000.
Feb. 12 next was yesterday declar
ed to be a special legal holiday, and
a survey and plans for a highway
from Washington to Gettysburg, to
be known as "The Lincoln Way," as
a memorial to Abraham Lincoln, was
provided for by a joint resolution
passed by the senate, after an extend
ed debate.
Final action was also taken on the
legislative, executive and judicial
bill, the senate refusing by a vote of
41 to 27 to fix at $75,000 the salary
of the president, previously increased
by an amendment to $100,000.
Washington, Jan. 26. The postal
savings bank and the omnibus claims
bill were before the senate yesterday
for discussion and amendment, but no
substantial progress was made on
either measure. An amendment was
made to the postal bill limiting to
$500 the amount of the deposits of
any one person and fixing the rate of
interest to be paid at 2 per cent, with
the understanding that the amend
ment would be subject to further
change by the senate. Senator Car
ter, in charge of the measure, an
nounced that he would keep it before
the senate on every opportunity until
it was disposed of.
The urgent deficiency bill was pass
ed.
Legislation afTecting the District of
Columbia was considered by the house
yesterday, almost the entire session
being devoted to that purpose.
Demands Big Fleet in Pacific."
Sacramento, Cal., Jan. 27.—Nathan
C. Coughlan of San Francisco intro
duced a joint resolution in the assem
bly yesterday calling upon the Califor
nia delegation in congress to urge the
establishment in Pacific waters of a
fleet whose war strength shall be as
great as that of any other nation'on
the Pacific.,
NEW TRIAL REFUSED.
"Lumber Company May Be Put Out of
Business In South Dakota.
Judge Boucher refused to grant new
trials in either of the criminal or civil
cases which have been brought by the
state against the Central Lumber
company of Leola. In both cases the
question at issue was the constituion
ality of the law of last session passed
to prohibit discriminations in restraint
of trade. It was one of the platform
measures of that session.
The state officers took advantage
of the right of search under the law,
and secured the letter files and books
of the company, and with this evi
dence begau the suits. An appeal has
been taken to the supreme court, if
the lower house is sustained, the suits
will put the lumber company out of
business in this Htate.
Articles of incorporation have been
filed for the State Bank of Winona,
at Winona, Tripp county.
The State Historical society held its
biennial meeting at the state house
last week. A par.t of the business

tlio executive committtt to (ill vacan
cies. and the selections for these
places were: Rev, C. T. Notson of
Alexandria 13. P. Fair, Pierre IJ. F.
McClure, Pierre, and George W. Nash,

J. J. HILL GIVES TEN THOUSAND.
Makes Donation in Aid of South Da
kota College.
President Kerfoot. of Dakota Wes
leyun college, has been in the east
for a week in the interests of the col
lege. On bis way he stopped in St.
Paul for a consultation with James J.
Hill, the Great Northern magnate.
President Kerfoot is trying to raise
the $30,000 indebtedness that hangs
over the college, and he made a suffi
ciently strong plea with Mr. Hill that
the railroad king finally agreed to pre
sent the university with $10,000 when
the rest of the debt has been provided
for by the supporters of the institu
tion in this state.
Dr. Kerfoot will set to work at
once to take advantage of the bene
faction promised by Mr. Hill, and
while in the East he was presented
with $1,000 by a lady friend of the
institution.
While away Dr. Kerfoot visited sev
eral large cities with a view of finding
a suitable pastor for the Methodist
church of this city to recommend to
the committee.
FROM ORIENT TO PLATTE.
Report Again Current That Milwau
kee Road Will Close Gap.
Rumors have been received that in
the spring the Milwaukee Railroad
company will close the gap between
Orient and Platte, in Charles Mix
county. The line between Loyalton
and Orient now contains several sharp
curves, which will be removed. This
will leave two small villages east of
the new route, but itfis probable they
will tie moved bodily to the straight
ened line and thus retain railroad
communication. From Loyalton the
road will bear somewhat westward
of the present line, and will cross the
Minneapolis &e St. Louis railroad at
Carlyle.
MOB VISITS W. C. T. U. LEADER.
Deadwood Crowd Angered by Lid En
forcement Calls at Midnight.

the "lid" was clamped down at Dead
wood was shown when a mob visited
the home of Mrs. Juliet Marohn, head
of the W. C. T. U., and attempted at
alate hour at night, to force her to
appear and argue with them on the
liquor question. Although the crowd
threatened damage, it was dispersed
by the ringing of the fire bell. Mrs.
Marohn was active in circulating the
petition to the governor for the en
forcement of the liquor laws, which is
declared to have been responsible for
the present closing.

By direction of the attorney gen
eral of the United States the United

kota lias commenced an action in the
federal court at Sioux Falls for the

hotel at Aberdeen, fell down the ele
vator shaft from the fourth floor to
the first floor, a distance of sixty
feet, and escaped without a scratch.
Plans are being made for the erec
tion of a new Methodist church in Ar
lington. Tile present edifice will
probably be sold to the Norwegian
Lutherans, who have a large and
growing congregation.
The supreme court sustained the
demurrer of Olivet in the Hutchin
son county seat contest. This action
puts Parktson out of the phra. and
leaves the county seat at Olivet for
at least four years more.
The body of James Cromwell, pro
prietor of the Eagle cafe in Water
town. was picked up on the street at
o'clock one morning last week.
Death was due to exposure and heart
failure brought on by excessive drink
ing.

the lives of her children. Her hands
were terribly burned before she could
safely drop it.

met his death while thawing frozen
water pipes with gasolene. He was
pouring the fluid On the pipes aild
firing it with matches, when the can

rived from North Dakota, is being
closely guarded in the county jail to
save him from possible violence at
the hands of excited citizens.
Farewell to the green cloth and to
the all-night and Sunday saloons in
historic Deadwood. Last Sunday
night at 11 sharp the lid was clamped
down, and hereafter at that hour all
saloons must close and the horde of
"sleepers" must find some other rest
ing place. Such is the order of the
state attorney general that will be
carried out.
Madison is now practically assured
of a Y. M. C. A. building at an early
Jate. The organization is already per
fected, and the work of raising funds
is now progressing. W. H. Parsons
of Minneapolis has charge of the
work of planning the raising of the
funds, and the structure as well. A
building to cost $20,000, including
fqupment, is proposed.
Over a hundred stockmen, repre
senting Black Hills counties, met at
Deadwood and passed a resolution
urging the legislature not to amend

kind in South Dakota, in a town with
no greater population than Orient.

completed and occupied, and the up
per floors are nearing completion and
will he ready for occupancy in the
near future. The new school building
