Prof. Yamaa has been drawing large

week and furnished lots of amusement
for the spectators. He put his wife

attracted large crowds of people all
day. The professor put a young man
into a state of catalepsy Wednesday
evening , placing his head on the back
of one chair and his heels on another ,
and put a large stone , weighing 275
pounds on his chest , and had E.
"Breuklander smash it with a 20-pound
sledge hammer. There seems to be a
great many skeptics in Valentine ,

and give Yamaa a fair trial , we guar
antee they can see rats or fight bees
asell as others who have given him
a trial. Prof. Yamaa as a hypnopist
cannot be excelled. He gives illus
trations in his peculiar art that are
astonishing , such as having a man
eat red pepper by the spoonful , and
other funny acts he works on animals
as well as man. On Wednesday even
ing he put large "Billy" goat into
a sound slumber after a few magic
passes.

Sam Terry , one of the oldest old-
timers this country has , is down from
Rosebud last week. Sam has a war
record as long as the moral law , and
although 75 years of age , he is as spry
as a young buck , and has an eye for
women and flowers that makes him a
connoisseur of these two forms of
beauty. Sam has been here so long
that he remembers when the Rosebud
was a ridge of sandhills , and he claims
to have straddled every stream from
the Pecos to British Columbia.
Frank Fischer was arraigned in
county court last Saturday on a
charge of selling liquor to Indians ,
the case having been continued last
month for thirty days. The local
brach of the W. C. T. U. interested
themselves in the matter and em
ployed F. M. Walcott to assist in
the prosecution. The defense proved
that Fischer had given the liquor to
the ludian on the order of John
Cordier , not knowing what the pack
age contained , and that the Indian
was merely acting as a carrier from I
Valentine to Rosebud , on which show-1
ing the defendant was turned loose. '
The women , we understand , wished \
to appeal the case , but on advice of
their attorneys will let the matter
rest.
Last Thursday , thirty miles south
of Ainsworth , while H. C. Savage , ac
companied by his brother , C. G.
Savage , and James Rowe. a hunting
party from Sargent , in Ouster county ,
were camped on Ender's lake , the
former in handling a shotgun received
the full contents of both barrels in
his arm about half way between the
wrist and elbow , tearing away bone
and flesh , maksng an ugly wound.
He was immediately brought to Ains
worth wheie Drs. Lambly and Ely
dressed the wounded arm , and he is
doing as well as the seriousness of the
wo'und will allow. He will remain
here until it will be sate for him to
continue on his journey up to Simeon
in Cherry county , where the party
were headed for when the accident
occurred. Ainsworth Star-Journal.
Woman's Suffrage Convention
By request we publish below a call
for a 'woman's suffrage convention.
Those from abroad who expect to be
present should address Mrs. Helen
Hornby :
All friends ot justice and equal rijrhts In
Cherry county , are urgently invited to meet in
mass convention in tlie court house at Valen
tine. October 25 and a ; , 1899. The convention
will be held under the joint auspices of the Xa-
tioiril American Woman Suffrage Association
and the Nebraska Equal Suflrage Association.
Able speakers will be present , and an enter-
taming , instructive program will be provided.
Four states , Wyoming. Colorado , Utah and
Idaho , have already granted full suffrage to
women , while twanty-six additional utates have
admitted the justice of the claim bv extending
partial suffrage. The states which have hail
full opportunity to observe the ad vantages of
woman suffrage unite in the testimony that it
has proved bcnelicial in every direction. It has
in no way injured men. women or the ste-te.
Instead , under its influence , women have be
come more intelligent and self-reliant ; good
men have been encouraged by the moral aid of
women , and have sought the purification of
politics , which they were unable to accomplish
alone , while the state has gained a new dijrritv
by the introduction of this moral force.
Important business concerning methods of
work best suited to hasten the establishment of
woman suffrage , in order that the state maj
gain its consequent goou effects , will be considered - >
ered in the convention. The friends of suffrage 1i
are Invited to aid in the formation of thee I
plans ; the indifferent are invited to attend the
sessions that thev may be converted ; and the
opposed are invited to participate in the di
cussioH. presenting their side of the question C
Js.veryone.is invited. Come one. Oomeall , V
