from the Tribnuo JohnT Oogau A F Pay and W J Crisp of Sioux Falls spent last night at tho Garrotsou Thoy arrived from Doadwood in tho afternoon whore they had assisted in the installation of a big lodge of Elks Thoy report a mammoth time On tho way to Sioux City yesterday after leaving Norfolk there occurred a free-for-all fight in which somo eight men engaged aud the other passengers niado a hasty escape into other cars fear ing some gun plays Mr Cogau says tho Sioux Falls men were in the smoking car playing whist when at Norfolk five grafters got on who were going to a big picnic at Dixon Neb to day On the car was a young Italian boy with a couple of valises and tho tough quintet for some reason began picking on him They pretended that they were goiug to throw him out of tho window and did push him half way out They went through his pockets and va lises and tormented the lad until he be gan to cry The brakemau who was in the car laughed at tho proceedings while the other passengers got angry at the big burlies because of their bullying ways Finally the uproar became so loud aud tho boy so troubled that Mr Pay went to the brakemau and threat ened to report him if he did not compel the grafters to behave themselves One of the tinhorns overheard the re mark and threatened to whip Mr Pay At this juncture a stalwart German who had been about on the verge of interfer ing on behalf of tho boy said something in tho lads defonse Here the grafter threatened to slap tho Germans mouth if he didnt shut up and finally did so He had scarcely delivered his slap how ever until he was tangled up with the seats and then sprawling in the aisle of the car Tho German had hit him a terrific blow The other crooks came to the aid of their companion aud several men who were with the German mixed in the melee It was a hot fight which followed and the other passengers fear ing some shooting ran into other cars Conductor Gary came in having been hunted up by one of the outraged pas sengers and endeavored to get the men quieted down This was finally accom plished but no effort was made to have tho disturbers punished Tho South Dakota law empowers a railway con ductor to make arrests in cases of this kind and tho South Dakotans asked tho conductor of tho train if he oould not arrest the men He seemed to think it was too much of an undertaking The grafters got off before the train reached Emerson Here a defect ive of the Omaha railroad interviewed tho young Italian boy who cried and affirmed that the men had taken 25 of his money The detective telegraphed back

no doubt being ublo to afford temporary relief but S S S is absolutely tho only remedy which completely cures it Scrofula is one of the most obstinate deep Heated blood diseases and is leyond tho reach of tho many so called purifiers and tonics because some thing more than a mero tonic is required S S S is equal to any blood trouble and never fails to euro Scrofula because it goes down to tho seat of the disease thus permanently eliminating every traco of tho taint The serious consequences to which Scrofula surely leads should impress upon those ufllicted with it tho vital im portance of wasting no timo upon treatment which can not possibly effect a cure In many cases where the wrong treatment lias been relied upon complicated glandular swellings have resulted for which the doctors insist that a dangerous surgical operation is necessary Mr II EThompson of Milledgeville Ga writes A bad case of Scrofula broke out on tho glands of my neck which had to be lanced and caused me much suffering I was treated fo a long while but tho physicians were un able to euro me and my condition was as bad as when I began thoir treatment Many blood remedies wero used but without effect Somo ono recommended 8 S S and I began to improve as soon as I had taken a few bottles Continuing tho remedy I wan soon cured normanentlv any one fV and havo never had a sign of tho disease to return Swifts Specific S S S FOR THE BLOOD is tho only remedy which can promptly reach and cure obstinate deep seated blood diseases By relying upon it and not experimenting with the various so called tonics etc all sufferers from blood troubles can be promptly cured instead of enduring years of suffering which gradually but surely undermines the constitution S S S is guaranteed purely vegetable and never fails to euro Scrofula Eczema Cancer Rheumatism Contagious Blood Poison Boils Tetter Pimples Sores Ulcers etc Insist upon S S S nothing can take its place Books on blood and skin diseases will be
