] Froni the St. Louis , Mo. , Chronicic. ]
The effect of using Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for rimeumatimirn was brought to , lmght
lately by a Cimronlele reparter who muter-
viewed John Ferguson all 70tt ) SoutltBrOad
way , St. Louis , who had been a sufferer
with this ixicaacitating dmscase.
"Those pills , " he said , "imztvo proved of
fn'cttt benefit not only to inc btit to mywhfo.
tniimgo to say we both suffered from the
same atimnent , although my wiTo's condi-
thou was much worse than mine. Neither
of us could sleep at night ; we had sharp
shooting pains in our armssides and lmrnbs
and a continual soreness alt over time body.
'What we suffered from was imothtng more
or less timim rimeumatismn. At tmmncs my
wife had to crawl up stairs on her hands
and knees and as for mc , I would at night
twitch an jerk despite lilY utmost efforts
to control myself. We suffered the torture
of timedamned. .
"But in three weeks the IaIn began to
leave us. My case not being as severe as
my wife's I soon got weli , but it took itcarly
tlmrce nionths before Mrs. Ferguson could
say sue vas entirely free from rhotimnatC
pains. Of course I rocoimunend Dr. Will-

From time St. l'aul [ 'ioneer Prcss.
C1A3IhmInrIx , S. D. , Dec. 10.-One
day during the latter part of last , June ,
William Franklin am ! lmis daugimter ,
Mrs. Frank Stone , happened to stroll
up a gulch in l'ennington county , and
and stopping to rest , Mrs. Stone idly
broke in two a small piece of rock ,
which in the break , upoim examination
showed some particles of gold. A little
digging exposed more of time rock ;
which , upon being panned , proved.
very rich. Everybody in time vicinity ,
having nothing to do , visited time spot ,
mmnl for pastime were allowed to ( hg
out some of time rock and pami omit time
gold. As every man in that vicinity
was in bad condition fiumaimcially , and
without other means for raishmg time
money for the propereclebrationof time
approaching Fourth of .July , quite an
opening WitS made and the Proceeds devoted -
voted to that purpose.
From this little izmcident dates the
discovery of gold in the holy Terror
mine , wixiclm from day to day cammses
greater excitement iii mining circles.
With five stamps the owner recently
pounded out $3,5i0 ( in gold in ten hours.
IiIucim of time ore runs $500 to the ton.
l'ersistent prospecting revealed no
other place where time vein came tthmc
surface save this one spot. which has
been walked over every day for years.
Mr. Franklin took in I' . (2. ( Blair as
partner , and a shaft was begun , time
ore taken out being treated iii time Keystone -
stone mill , and returnei value immuch
above time expense of sinking the
shaft. When time shaft reached a
depth of forty feet , deveioping a ve1t
defined vein , which steadiiv imnproveI
with width and value as depth was
gained , time owners made aim arrangement -
mont with J. .r. Fayel and Albert Amns-
bury , by which they agreed to erect a
stamp mill on time property imm coimsid-
oration of a imahl interest in tIme mine.
A. five stamp mill with an en.rimme en-
pacity of ten stanlpsormore was quickly -
ly built at a cost of about Si00 , and
put in operation three weeks ago.
