charla Scene.
BERLIN, Feb. . Sun Pao-Kl. the
Chinese minister at Berlin, received lnstruc
tlons some weeks ago from Pekln to dis
cuss with the German office the Japanese
treatment of trade In Mar.churla and to
broach the possibility of the United States
and Germany entering Into a special agree
ment concerning the maintenance of equal
trade opportunities in all the Chinese terri
tories. Sun Pao-Kl communicated hla In
structions to the foreign office and dis
cussed the subject In the most general
terms, the foreign office receiving his sug
gestions In a courteous, Inquiring but non
committal manner. It presumably has cor
responded with the German embassy at
Washington and the legation at Pekln as
to the extent of the Chinese proposal and
what was thought of It. In Washington
It Is understood, Wu Ting Fang, the Chinese
minister, will receive Identical Instruc
tions and will lay them before the state de
partment. Crlna's idea of special agree
ment between the United States and Ger
many appears to rest In the belief that
these two alone of the great commercial
states would bo likely seriously to oppose
Japan's disposition, as China avej-s, to die
criminate in Manchuria in favor of her own
merchants.

MITCHELL, 8. D., Feb. 25. (Speclal.)
W. B. Holmes, who recently came to this
city from some point In Wisconsin, has
made a good start as a forger, but he has
been brought up standing iti the early
part of hla career. Several weeka ago he
came to Mitchell and presented a draft for
$980 at one of the banks to have cashed.
The cashier, however, declined to cash it,
but accepted it for collection against the
Wisconsin bank which, it waa alleged, la
sued tho draft In tha meantime Holmes
issued several checks against funds In the
Wisconsin bank, which later proved that
he did r.ot havo any money deposited there.
In all he got about J25 from the local bank
on forged checks, and then he skipped the
country. The officers have been looking
for him and finally located him at Milbank,
In the northern part ot the state. He was
arrested and brought back here today. At
Aberdeen and at Webster Holmes was suc
cessful in passing some forged checks, and
In this line he has created quite a career
In the last three weeks. He was taken be
fore a Justice of the peace and bound over
to the April term of circuit court. He Is
the son of respected parents In Wisconsin,
whom he expects to come to his rescue In
this case and help him out.

panies in South Dakota. L. M. Doyle, a
banker of Letcher, Is the treasurer of the

plus to his letters were so enthusiastic
and In favor of the move that Mr. Doyle
has called a convention of managers of
farmers' elevators, to be held at Bio ox
Falls on March 6. In the last year or
two, It Is alleged, that the old line grain
companies have endeavored to put the
farmers out of business In buying grain,
and that they feel the need of organization
to a great extent. Mr. Doyle has received
replies from over ?0 per cent of the man
agers and they have expressed & willing
ness to attend the convention. In the last
three or four years tha farmer elevatera
have been growing In number right along,
until they command quite a large business
throughout the state. At the present time
there are three or four elevators of this
class getting rtady for bustnee.

Io Y'on Deliberately Torture Yourself
Alive by Neglecting Yonr Stomach?
Bemtdy Tree for the Asking.
A great outcry has arisen during the last
fsw years against scientists who torture
dumb ayilmala alive In the Interests of
science. How many people are there, how
ever, who needlessly torture themselves by
oeoalng thslr stomachs to overwork. Dys

itable result

Why not give your stomach a rest?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will relieve
yeur stomach of all Its work and do It for
you. They are compounded of ths very
elements and do the work which the stom
ach performs when In normal health, asep
tic pepsin, malt diastase and like Ingred
ients. . .
Dr. Richardson In writing a thesis on
treatment of dyspepsia and Indigestion,,
closes his remarks by saying, "For those
suffering from acid dyspepsia, shown by
sour, watery risings, or for flatulent dys
pepsia shown by gas on stomach, causing
heart trouble and difficult breathing, as
well as for all other forms of stomach
trouble, the safest treatment ia to take
one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
after each meal. I advise them because
they contain no' harmful drugs, but are
composed of Valuable digestives, which
act promptly upon the food eaten. I never
knew a case of indigestion or even chronic
dyspepsia which Stuart's Tablets would not
reach."
Cheap cathartic medicines claiming to
cure dyspepsia and Indigestion can have
no effect whatever in actively digesting
the food, and to call any cathartic medi
cine a cure for Indigestion Is a misnomer.
. Every druggist In the United States and
Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
and they are not only the safest and most
successful but the most scientific of sny
(treatment for Indigestion and stomach
troubles.

A lady writer who not only has done
good literary work, but reared a family,
found in Grape-Nuts the Ideal food for
brain work and to develop healthy child
ren. She write:
"I am an enthusiastic proclaimer of
Grape-Nuts as a regular diet. I formerly
had no appetite In the morning and for s
years while nursing my four children, had
Insufficient nurtshment for them.
Unable to eat breakfast 1 felt faint
later, and would go to the pantry and eat
cold chops, sausage, cookies, doughnuts
or anything I happened to find. Being a
writer, at times my head felt heavy and
my brain asleep.
"When I read of Grape-Nuts I began
eating It every morning, also gave it to
tha children, including my 10 months old
baby, who soon grew fat as a little pig,
good natured and contented.
'Within a week I had plenty of breast
milk, and felt atronger within two weeks.
J wrote evenings and feeling the need of
sustained brain power, began eating a
small saucer of Grape-Nuts with milk in
stead of my usual indigestible hot pu Id nf,
pie or cake for dessert at night.
"Grape-Nuts did wonders for me snd
I learned to like it. I did not mind my
housework or mother's cares, for I felt
strong and full of 'go.' I grew plump,
nerves strong, snd when I wrote my brain
waa active and clear; Indeed, ths dull
head pain never returned."

Mrs. Llssle Burns snd her brother, James
Donnelly, who were shot by W. Jobson of
Council Bluffs, an unsuccessful suitor of
Mrs. Burns, Monday night, are resting well
at the home ef Mr. Donnelly, SOJ North
Fprty-flfth street, and will. In the opinion
of Dr. F. A. Nelson, reoover without seri
ous results.
The shooting occurred In front of the
residence of Sam Peterson, 43G9 Cuming
street. Jobson waa arrested on the charge
of shooting to kill, while Mrs. Burns and
Donnelly were removed to their residence
nearby and attended by Dr. F. A. Nelson,
who found that the woman had received
a serious wound between the third and
fourth ribs on the right aide of the breast
and another bullet entered her right arm,
while Donnelly had received a bullet wound
In the right shoulder as ho grappled with
Jobson.
From the story told by Donnelly and
Mrs. Burns, the two were returning from
the grooery store of A. K. Nuckolls at For
tieth and Cuming streets, where Donnelly
Is employed, and when turning around Pe
terson's house to go to Donnelly's home
Jobson called to thorn from the sidewalk,
having preceded them down the hill. The
couple returned and when directly In front
of the Peterson residence Jobeon pulled a
revolver from hla pocket and fired two
shots at Mrs. Burns, who fell to the side

tering Donnelly's right shoulder and com
ing out at the back of the neck.

the Burns woman had recently kept house
for him and had attended to his mother,
and left for no apparent reason. He stated
that she refused to return after numerous
endeavors on hla part to get her to do so.
Mrs. Burns claimed that she hsd been em

left because she had had some trouble In
collecting money due her for her services
and that since leaving Jobson's shs had
been keeping house for her brother.
Dr. Nelson recovered the bullet which
had entered Mrs. Burns' right arm, but was
unable to extract the one which had en,
tared her chest, but stated that tha wound
was net necessarily fatal.
