A KAKMKK KIOCKES IN THE CASE AN ALL NIGHT TIME OF IT Ou Tuesday afternoon a farmer drove into town, and putting bis team up at the Round Front barn spent a few hours takiDg in the town and apparently surveying the lay of the law) preparitory to engaging in a well laid plau to carry out some particular object in view. He was well dressed and had tin appearance of a gentleman instead of a suspicious looking character as i. sometimes want to travel through tin country. His deportment did Dot cause any alarm or suspicion as be seemed to be friendly and familai with those whom he met and with any and all subjects introduced Rut as the shades of night wore on it became apparent to a close observer that his stop over was being made for some special purpose. An other noticable circumstance was the presence of two full uniformed sol’ diers in town and who had suddenly appeared on the scene. Those who noted the actions of the first named gentleman was free to express an opinion that he was bent on doing something out of the ordinary. The editor’s attention wascalledto the circumstance and we being of an inquisitive nature, as most editors are, at once approached the gentleman to learn what we could ot Liin and the mysteries surround ii g the case We at once recognized him to be a person of no less im portance than A. L. Baillie, who, as he stated to us, was going to spend the night in the city, and meet, for the first time in six years, with his brother masons at their fes tive turnout. When this became known Mr. Baillie was given the freedom of the towo, took supper with ye editor and family, took in the Masonic banquet and spent the remainder of the night with his brother mason, John II. Travis, thus making an all night stop-over in the city. Two well dressed, full uniformed government soldiers came in town last Tuesday and of course our peo pie were a little curious to know who they were, where they came from and why they came. It was not long however until they made knowu their business, which was to give themselves over to the sherifl of this county for having deserted their post at Port Niobrara. They are bright looking young men of perhaps 22 years of age, one by the name of Hamilton and the other Ilopeman. formerly of Pennsylvania and New York. According to their own story they left home soon after they became of age and deciding to join the army at once enlisted and was soon thereafter stationed with the troops at Fort Niobrara After being ou duty several months ihey became tired of the work, and one day while out on a spree deserted camp. For several days they have been traveling on foot through the country, keeping most of the time in the hills and out of sight as much as possible. Nearly all day Wed nesday they were in the bills not far from this city when they made up their minds that it would be bet ter to be a true soldier than to trv longer to evade the officers under such difieult circumstances and so gwe themselves over to Sheriff Snyder. Thev were at once placed in the county jail and the intelligence was at ouce communicated to the bead officers at the Fort. In due time the order came to hold the pris oners until the arrival of the officers who would lake them iu charge ami pay the reward usually given in such cases for theii arrest and de tention. Later the sheriff was noti fied to take them to the government | < tliciala at Omaha when tic would r< • cieve a reward r hotel in grand Island.

HEAD NOISES CEASE IMMEDIATELY. F. A. WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS: Baltimore, Md., March 30, 1901. Gintlrmm : — Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give yon a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five years ago my tight ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this car entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a num ber of physicians, among others, the most ciuineut car sjiecialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the hearing in the affected car would be lost forever. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treat ment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day. after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased car has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours. F. A. WURMAN, 730 S. Broadway. Baltimore, Md. Our treatment does not interfere with ifour usual occupation.
