by Sol Bloom, a former resident of this
City hut now In business in South Dakota.
The building, which in. early days was
used as a theater and dancing hall, adjoins
the Bono building, now In course of re
construction. In, excavating for the re
pairs to the Beno building It was dis
covered that the foundations of the Bloom
building were unsafe and that the structure
might come down at any moment. Investi
gation showed that the building waa to a
great extent supported by the Stewart
building on the, north and that if the
latter building was torn down, as It is said
is contemplated by the owners to make
room for a modern structure, the Bloom
building would be likely to collapse.
Shortly after the work of repairing the
Beno building was begun It was discovered
that the foundations were faulty and the
owners have decided that It will be neces
sary to put m an entirely new front as
well as a new foundation.

LOOKING UP CONSUMPTIVES
Bute Board Gathering Statistici for tho
Next Legislature.
LITTLE CHANGE IN TAXABLE VALUATION
Falling OS in Personalty Mostly
Dne to Decrease In Live Stock
Silver Men Are Dismasted.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES, July 10. (Special.) The
coming week the members of the State
Board of Control will send out to different
persons In the state a list of questions re
lating to the number of persons in the
state who have been or are afflicted with
tuberculosis, the number who have been
treated, the method of treatment, etc.
These queries will go first to the super
intendents of the four state hospitals and
tho feeble minded asylum, the members of
the State Board of Health, officers of the
medical societies who have urged the es
tablishment of a state tuberculosis retreat
and to others. ' They will be asked to give
not only Information, but advise as to
treatment and opinions as to the value of
state or private sanitariums for such cases
and all other like Information. This will
be followed by circulars to all the regis
tered physicians of the state, securing ex
act Information as to the extent of con
sumption In Iowa. The whole will be
used, with much other Information now
being secured by the board, as the basis
of a report to the next legislature, as re
quired by a special resolution of the Thir
tieth general assembly, so that the next
legislature can act intelligently on the
proposition to have established In Iowa
such an Institution. Judge Klnne of the
state board has just visited the new State
Institution for Tuberculosis now being
completed, at Saranao lake, and also the
private sanitarium for the same not far
away, where he gathered a vast amount of
Information to be used in the report. He
also visited a similar institution in Mas
sachusetts, the only state Institution of
the kind in existence, and secured statis
tics. It is expected that the report he
will prepare will be one of the most com
plete ever presented to a legislature.
Iowa Values Little Changed.
The reports from counties of Iowa On
which the state executive council will base
the tax levy for the next year will show
very little change from last year In the
taxable value of property of all kinds that
Is assessed locally. The total taxable valu
ation of personal property last year was
returned at 1112.043,989. This year the foot
ing shows, with one county added In as
last year, a total of $110,064,049. The pne
county is Linn, which has not reported.
The difference is $1,989,960. The one miss
ing county will probably run it a little oyer
the $2,000,000 merk. This loss on personal
property vaWes Is almost entirely on live
stock, but the reports show that will be
about made up in new buildings added to
the real estate values. Polk county, for
Instnnce, reports new buildings added of
r unl value $1,434,386 and Pottawattamie
i.unty $349,308. Other large counties make
similar reports.
Dsaliaase Engineer.
' Prof. A. P.- Ashbaugh of Ames is in the
city for a consultation with' Governor. Cum
mins tomorrow in regard to the survey of
the lakes which it is proposed shall be'
drained in northern Iowa. He will secure
data as to the extent of the area proposed
to be drained and instructions as to the
surveys to he made. Work will commence
at once and some of the drainage may be
done this yetr.
Silver Ma to Leave Party.
A large t.un&ier of those who became
democrats a fenr years ago on the silver
question am spying that they will leave
the party. Tl'ere are a good many of
these In Iowa. The Iowa delegation to St.
Louis was nUroIled by this class of dem
ocrats, who tlatl their faith to Hearst and
are disappointed because of the failure
of the convention to adopt their views at
St. Louis. Interviews here with a num
ber of .these men indicate that they will
not longer be active in party affairs. The
state convention, which is to be held in
two weeks at Iowa City, is almost certain
to be dominated by the reorganlsera, and
the ticket named will be acceptable to
them rather than to the silver element.
Indian Mounds In Iowa.
The Iowa Historical society, with head
quarters at Iowa City, has been carrying
on an investigation Into the Indian mounds
along the Iowa river. Dr. D. H. Ward
of the State university has succeeded In
disclosing the location of over 100 of these
mounds, many of them being In the vicin
ity of the famous Amana society, in Iowa

tinued In this direction.

GAMBLERS WORK SWEDE FOR ROM,
Give t'p Part of It and Attorney Is
After Remainder.
FAIRFAX. S. D., July 10-(Speclal.)
Yesterday afternoon a Swede by the name
of Ola Johnson came to Fairfax completely
heartbroken, and broken financially to the
amount of $325. About one week ago he
landed in Bonesteel from Chicago, with
something over $600 to his credit In a Chi
cago bank, every dollar lie had in the
world except a, few dollars In cash with
him. He was Immediately spotted by a
smooth-looking and smoother-talking man,
who laid claim to Norway as his place of
birth. Of course that made the man from
Sweden feel at home Immediately. The
next move the Norwegian took him Into
one of the Joints where a three-card monte
game was In progress; together they talked
of the game and were Joined by a farmer
looking Individual purporting to be from
Kentucky. First, the Norwegian would
stake a small sum, then the farmer, and
turned the right card every time. The Nor
wegian told the Innocent Swede he had
pinched the card so he could tell it every
time and it was a cinch sure, so Mr. Swede
man bet a small sum against $300 and won,
of course, but they Insisted. on not paying
him uritll he produced his $600. Here they
Induced him to go to Chicago and get his
money. On his return to Bonesteel before
they paid over his money the Norwegian
insisted In counting the Swede's money In
the presence of the several men connected
with the scheme. While this performance
was on, a supposed policeman raids the
place, all escape but the poor Swede, who
la Immediately placed under arrest. In the
meantime, the policeman advises him to
flee from the town and nothing will be do
ing. Half scared to death, he walked to
Fairfax, but returned to Bonesteel again
and demanded his money. The gamblers,
fearing trouble, refunded $175 and scared
him into leaving again. He again came to
Fairfax and told his troubles to a lawyer.
What makes the above case a very pitiful
one, Mr. Johnson has a wife and five chil
dren In Sweden, has worked and saved
every way to get a home and enough to
send for them. , He came to this place
thinking he might secure a home. Steps are
being taken today to recover the money
and unless It is forthcoming, every gambler
In Bonesteel will be arrested and every
gambling house closed.
Settling" on Other Lands.
CHAMBERLAIN, S. D.. July 10. (Spe
cialj The Rosebud registration has pro
gressed sufficiently to demonstrate that the
opening to settlement of this tract of land
will be far-reaching In its effects and will
work a wonderful transformation In the
entire country, not only immediately west
from Chamberlain, but the border counties
on the east sldo of the Missouri river as
well. The Rosebud opening Is bringing
thousands of people Into the state who
might otherwise never have came, and
after they reach here the country proves
both a revelation ' and a surprise to the
visitors. While but comparatively few will
be able to secure land In the Rosebud open
ing the overflow' that will drift into the
lands already subject to homestead entry
in Lyman and Stanley counties will cer
tainly retire all lands open to settlement
during the summer and fill erery quarter
with an occupant, hastening the settle
ment of the country by many years. In
fact, the officials of the general land office
look for a much heavier filing the next
two months on the,'' vacant Sioux lands than
in th Rosebud, jicif, especially because the
former are better. . but because they are
more extensive end the people are here
to acquire them.
Establish Dipping; Station.
HURON, B. D.; July 10. (Special.) The
Board of County ' cbmmlaaioners has de
cided that there Is no law to warrant the
establishing of dipping stations by the
county for the dipping of cattle, In .ac
cordance with Instructions sent out by the
government A meeting of stockmen and
farmers was held here and steps taken to
prevent the spread of the disease, and to
eradicate It as rapidly as , possible where
It has made Its appearance. An immense
vat has been established by Clark A Ven
ables, and many hundred cattle can be
dipped dally. A elope. lookout is being kept
by all Interested parties and there is rea
son to believe that no serious results will
come of the disease In this locality.
Favorable Report on Dltcb.
ONAWA, la.. July 10. (Speolal.) R, 8.
Fessenden, engineering the big Monona
Harrison ditch, says the commissioners on
same will file their report on the Harrison
county part at Logan Tuesday next, and
on the Monona end at Onawa on Wednes
day. The report will be favorab'e to the
establishment of the ditch. The ditch, as
laid out, is a little over twenty-two miles
In length, about seventy-five feet wide
on the top snd forty-five to fifty feet on
the bottom, and from eight to fourteen
feet deep the entire distance. The en
gineer says It is calculated to drain $0,000
acres of laud, which In the wet season Is
too wet for cultivation. The waters of the
West Fork river will be turned Into the
new canal, from which the Monona-Woodbury
ditch empties, and is expected to
make it a running stream and gradually
deepen ' the canal so as to carry off e'.l
overflows.

If coffee has you where your nerves de
mand it each morning you have a wreck
ahead sure.
Think back for a year and notioe how
the sick spells grow on you Instead of
getting leas.
Tou are running into nervous prostration
or some fixed disease absolutely certain,
and when It suddenly takes full possession
you will find nothing, absolutely nothing,
in drugs that will heal you. Nature de
mands penalty for the dally hurt to the
nerve centers by coffee, and you must pay
the full price.
A. physician of Cornwall, Ont., says of
himself, "For years coffee was to me what
rum is to the toper, but I kept getting
worse and worse in health.
"I suffered from continuous nervous
twitching, insomnia, restless, miserable
nights, nerves all gone. Craving for cof
fee was Intense, but It put roe lower and
lower In health. Something must be done,
so I tried leaving off the coffee and using
Postum Food Coffee. The first trial, wife
and I were both disgusted, for we were
careless In brewing it, but we went care
fully into the subject of preparing Postum
and found we had only allowed it to brew
about five mlnutee, and that won't make
good Postum. So next time it was boiled
full fifteen minutes after boiling began,
then served with good cream, and It was
toothsome and delicious. That marked the
beginning of my return to health. Now I
sleep well, the old twitching has disap
peared, and in short, I am well again. My
good wife has also been much benefited
by leaving off coffee and using Postum
Food Coffee. We have abandoned the old
coffee for all time." Name given by Pos

There's a reason why so many Intelligent
people and physicians drink Postum In
place of ordinary coffee.

Commissioner Rosenthal of Austria has
been appointed their representative and he
has been conducting the negotiations. To
thn Associated Press Mr. Rosenthal said!
"The foreign exhibitors do not consider
themselves In the same position as the con
cessionaires and refuse to pay a royalty of
X per cent on goods sold. We have of
fered to make eome concession In the way
of a present, but before we will allow
ourselves to be treated as concessionaires
the exhibits will be taken back home."
President Francis said:
"We will allow foreign exhibitors to sell
their exhibits and deliver them at the
close of the exposition; they may sell
duplicates for delivery outside the grounds,
but we will not allow them to sell to be
delivered on the spot unless they pay the
royalty."

DAVIS IS WELCOMED TO HIS HOME
Neighbors Torn Ont to Greet Demo
cratlo Candidate.'
ELKIN8, W. Va., July 10. Fully 2,000
people had gathered at the West Virginia
Central & Pittsburg railroad station here
to greet ex-Senator Henry O. Davis, who
arrived on his special car from the con
vention at St. Louis at 1 o'clock this aft
ernoon. When the train pulled in at the
station the music of the Elklns band,
which headed the throng, was drowned by
the shout' that went up when the demo
cratic candidate for vice president ap
peared on the platform of his car.
At Belington, in Barbour county, at least
100 men. Including the Belington band, had
boarded the train to which ex-Senator Da
vis' car was attached, and their shouts
joined those of the crowd at the station.
Hon. T. W. Dailey and Senator Elklns each
delivered an address of congratulation, to
which the ex-senator responded, voicing
his appreciation of the honor which the
democratlo convention had conferred upon
him and commented upon the fact that In
bis home town at least the demonstration
that marked his home coming furnished
evidence that party lines had been lost
sight of. He spoke from the rear plaform
of his car and his words were wildly
cheered.
Hundreds of those in the throng marched
to the rouslo of the bands to the Davis
home as an escort. At his home, which
Is on a commanding hill west of the town,
Mr. Davis slept most of the afternoon. He
felt much worn as the result of his work
in the convention. He received the news
of his nomination when the train stopped
at Grafton. When he slept this afternoon
hundreds of congratulatory telegrams were
received from every part of the country.
These were read to him by his private
secretary. P. S. Robb.
This evening Mr. Davis attended services
with his daughter, Mrs. Lee, at the Memo
rial Presbyterian church, whose building
was a gift from him to the congregation.
He positively refused to make any state
ment for publication today, laughingly de
claring that he hardly had time yet to
find out that he Is a candidate for vice
president.
