I must have money, and ail persons indebted to me are requested to square up old accounts by the 10th of this month and save costs. I mean busi- ness. M. S. Robinson. The blizzard of last week was much more severe south and east of here, but for a November storm It was quite sufficient at this point. No causualties are reported in this vicinity. Dave Gowdy's " bat 1 eye " is not the result of his visit to Chicago, but was caused by a piece of steel lodging there- in. A physician at Clinton, Iowa, re- moved the troublesome object. Information was received Tuesday afternoon that a blizzard was approach- ing from the west at the rate of forty miles an hour, and that it would strike this section at about midnight. It ap- pears however that the storm kept to the north of us, and as a consequence the roads in the vicinity of Aberdeen and EUendale are blockaded. J. W. Kennedy, who so ably repre- sents Chamberlain & Co., of Des Moines, Iowa, made his annual visit to the Herald sanctum last week. Of their own accord this house has each year increased the rates paid to the Herald for advertising, thereby expressing more plainly than words could do, their estimate of its value as an adver- tising medium. From personal knowl- edge we can recommend their goods. Miss Bessie Sharp, niece of Mrs. U. S. Grant, and for several years a resi- dent of Yankton, was to have been married to Lieut. Pettit of the regular armv at the residence of her-parents in Levenworth, Kansas, last week Wed- desday. But, on Tuesday night, as her affianced was going from a late train to a hotel he was attacked by a high- wayman, who shot and then robbed him. The .bullet struck the breast bone glancing downward, and had not been found at last accounts. Ft. Scott, (Kan.) Monitor: While talking with D. A. Camp, the popular book-keeper at Page's Implement House, the subject of Cough Medincines was brought up. Says Camp, "there is one to which I feel deeply indebted. It has given relief time and time again to my wife and children. In fact I feel under the greatest obligations to Prichard Bros., Druggists, for persuad- ing me to buy a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I would not be with- out a bottle of it in the house for twice its cost. In regard to all throat complaints of children and for colds it is unsurpassed. You just try it once and you will be surprised at the re- sults." r The Hurley I. O. O. F. lodge is grow- ing, Gowdy Bros, ship five cars of hogs this week. Great Scott! how the coal has vanish- ed for the past week, John Wormwood's team took a short run around town yesterday morning. The Ladies Mite society will meet at the residence of Mrs. Harneiss, if riday, at two o'clock p. m. James McKinney commenced his winter term of school at the Buchanan schcol house, Spring Valley, last Mon- day. If you want a large amount of read- ing for a small amount of money, call at the Herald office and see what wc have to offer. Owing to the non-arrival of the pa- per for this week's issue of the Herald, we give our readers the patents they should have received last week. An exchange remarks very wisely: Some newspaper man who has been there says: "Newspaper editing is a very funny amusement. If you give a man a puff he never sees it; but let one line against him appear and he sees it before the paper is off the press; and while he would not have time to stop on the street and say "thank you," he h:is time to run all over town to denounce the editor who seeks to print the news. 'Twas ever thus. Canton Advocate: The rubber stamp abortion is receiving favor in certain parts of Dakota. As one of our busi- ness men remarked the other dav there is nothing that gives away a business man so thoroughly as to daub up his letter heads, envelopes, etc., with a rubber stamp. The work always looks bad and it denotes a lack of enterprise on the part of the proprietor which does injustice to this portion of the country. The rubber stamp is quite popular among a certain class of ante- deluvian so-called business men of the east, but in the glorious northwest it obtains but little favor. 1*KKSU NAL. Mrs. E. Brauch is visiting in Yank- ton. Dave Gowdv went to Canistota yesterday to purchase hogs. Will Sill returned home Tuesday night from a visit with friends at Sa- lem. Jos. Frick returned from Yankton Monday. Can you give us a ray of light on the subject, JoeV Dave Gowdy returned from Cahicago Monday morning. Four days of the time occupied in making the trip were passed in a car at Sutherland, Iowa, waiting for the snow blockade to be raised. The legislative Vote, OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT OF TIIE RE- SULT IW THIS DISTRICT. The board of canvassers for the sec- ond legislative district, including the counties of Yankton.Turner and Hutch- inson, completed their labors Tuesday night.

Raridan, democrat, Yankton county 675, Hutchinson 275, Turner 262, total 1,202. Smith, Morris, Schnaidt and Ward, all republicans, are elected by sweeping majorities. To "W horn it may Concern. On Monday next, Nov. 15th, we will close all boob accounts, and from that time on, do a strictly cash business. PIEII & FERGUSON. Keep It Before the People. Temperance lecture, by Father Burr, under the auspices of the I. O. G. T, at the Baptist church in Hurley, Friday evening. Dec. 3d. Everybody invited. No admission fee. The Coming Storm. Tress and Dukotaian. Professor Foster, a Burlington, Iowa, meteorologist, enjoys the distinction of having predicted the blizzard which has just swept across the territories and states of the northwest. Flushed with succcss he has again put forth a prophecy which contains a dismal out- look for the immediate future. He says: From December 4 to 17 will occur some of the most destructi--. winter storms of recent years. The storm force will be greater than that which caused the great storms of October 9 and 15, anil many lives and much pro- perty can be saved from loss by making preparations for this uncommonly great storm period. These storms will be of much the same nature as were the terrible blizzards of last January 3, 7 and 10, which were predicted by us long before their occurrence", but the storm inlluence will be verv much greater during the storm period of next December. As Professor Foster seems to have an advantage in the department of «torin warnings, it will be well to treat his prognostications with the respect which is their due. He has just hit the nail square on the head. He says his December storm will affect Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska. Nothing is given relative to DaKota's fate, but the corner which lies in the angle formed by Nebraska and Iowa should keep its snow shoes handy. Prol'sssor Foster goes on to remark. About December 4th is likely to com- mence a mild, light rain with heavy fogs, and on the 5th one of the worst storms of the year will set in, reaching the ninety-first meridian near Decem- ber 6th. A great electric ground cur- rent will sweep around ttie west and south sides of the storms on December 5th similar to but greater than that re- markable current ot January 3d, which telegraphers will remember almost totally disabled the telegraph through Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri. On December *Jth these storms will have reached the eastern states, and will there be very heavy. At the same time a cold wave will spread over these western states, while the high winds will make the drifting snows very troublesome. These storms will be re- newed on this meredian with less force on December 11th and 16th. We advise every precaution against these great winter storms. All this would be sufficient, but the professor, haying his hand in, proceeds to relate: The electric, or earthquake disturb- ance wil commence on the 4th and 5th and will be very heavy during this period of great storms. We will be surprised not to hear of great electric storms and earthquakes during this storm period. Professor Foster bases his predic- tions upon the inlluence of the major planets. He is now man in the field and h^s not yet lost his reputation. Until that occurs his views are entitled to consideration. DAKOTA ITEMS. Attention, Company!

A special feature of the occasion will be the exhibition of a number of magnifi- cent stereopticon views of collossal size, illuminated by a powerful Drummond light. These views will include statu- ary. paintings, scenery, etc. The ladies will take all possible pains to give an entertainment worthy of the grand old festival day of New England. They earnestly solicit the patronage of all their friends. Don't forget the time and place—Nov. 25th, at Presbyterian church, . > The Fuel o f the Future. From Demorest'tt Monthly. It is a fact well known in manufac- turing circles that the vast bulk of the heat contained in coal is wasted. Only fourteen out of the hundred parts of carbon is actually utilized, llence. one of the problems of chemistry has been to get more power, in the way of heat and light, out of a given quantity of coal. Prof. T. S. C. Lowe claims to have solved this problem, a matter which is of vast importance, if it is a fact. The process is to pulverize the coal, and, in converting it into a gas, the coal is reduced to a powdered form so fine that it*wil'f lioat in the atmos- phere, and it is carried into the burn- ing furnace by a current of air artifici- ally produced. In the powdered form everything is consumed, as it makes no smoke and leaves no asher. This would utilize the mountains of so-called waste, now piled up near coal mines and manufactories. But Prof. Lowe's invention goes farther. The coal is converted into a water gas. A ton of anthracite coal will generate from eighty to a hundred cubic feet of giis. The cost will be about nine cents a cubic foot. This invention is already in use in the city of Troy, in the laun- dries of that place, and is also used for power and for heating and cooking in hotels and restaurants. The gas furn- ished is non-luminous and resembles that from alcohol. It has no odor and is intensely hot. These facts have come out in a report to the Scran ton Board of Trade, which calls the new invention anthrcite gas. The result will be a marvelous economy in the heating of houses and the cooking of food, while one ton of coal will go as far as a hundred of tons nowadavs. We publish this week combination prices of a number of eastern newspa- pers and magazines when subscribed for at this office. To receive the bene- fit of these prices all arreages to the Herald must be paid to date of sub- scribing. At the prices offered, none should be without reading matter. The Way They Got Votes. Bismarck Journal. What the farmers of McLean county want to know, now, is whether Council- man-elect Hughes and Representative- elect Williams intend to have the seed wheat delivered or will they require the farmers to come to Bismarck with their teams and bigs. The farmers understand that, these gentlemen hav- ing been elected, they will get seed wheat from the legislature, and it is important to them to know where and « hen they are to receive it. It would be embarassing to Messrs. Hughes and Williams to have two hundred farmers waiting on them, each carrying a bun- dle of bags and crying that seed time is come. Let them announce their pro- gramme early. ''••'.'*3^ Chamberlain*. Eye and bltin Ointment Is cooling and soothing, when applied to sensitive parts, it promptly relieves inflammation, chafing and soreness of skin, and all smarting and itching dis- esises.

Minnehaha county contains seventy- nine pensioners who receive $646.75 every month. Water in the wells at Canton and vicinity was never so low. V good time to try for an artesian flow. Itoscoe has been incorporated anil is now striving for a new school house and other substantial improvements. ltedfield is greatly rejoiced over the county-seat victory, and celebrated the event with a grand banquet and ball. Three men broke, jail at Columbia last week but were soon caught and re- turned to closer confinement than be- fore. Thos. McConnell, formerly of the Carthage Prairie Home, is still in a critical condition at his home in Carth- age. A lake in Foster county is reported to have risen two feet lately without any visible supply of water from inlets or from rains. A new railroad town thirteen miles south of Lake Preston is called Leora. One ten miles from Madison will be known as Otoham. Charles Mix, Douglas andt Aurora county farmers have plowed more ground by nearly one-half this fall than they plowed last year. The Mitchell Republican announces that it will hereafter charge half price tor advertising church fairs, socials and other ri'ligeous entertainments. The Rapids City street car line has been a paying investment from the first and now there is a prospect of an extension of the line before spring. An old man named Thomas Buckly fell down stairs at Wagner, Brown countv, a lew days ago and was killed. Mis body was buried by the county. A railroad meeting was called at Olivet the 15th to consider propositions toward the early construction of a rail- road through Hutchinson county. The literary society of Roscoe dis- cussed the question "that it is better to marry for love than for money" recent- ly, the decision being made that it was. John Wilson, a well known resident of La Moure county, died a few days ago from the effects of a gun shot wound accidently inflicted by himself. The largest locomotive in the world has lately been sent to the Cascade division of the Northern Pacific rail- road. It is a ten wheeler and weighs eighty tons. The Galena district is believed to be the coming mining district of the Black Hills. Several of the mines only par- tially developed, are already paying handsomely. The following Dakota post offices have been recently discontinued: Bar- ker, Benson county; Bethel, Clay coun- ty; Groverill, Union county; Shelby, Brown county. J. W. Ross, recently discharged from the railway mail service for drunken- ness, was found Monday between Mitchell and Alexandria, with three bullet holes in his body. A three year old child fell into a well forty feet deep at Andover, the other day.lmd when rescued its arm was broken in two places, hip dislocated and head badly bruised. It was thought its wounds would not prove fatal. Lake Preston isljubllant over the fact of the location of depot grounds, round house and turn table at that point. The conclusion is that when the road is extended south and north that town will be made division headquarters. Articles of incorporation of the Se- curity Investment company of Yank- ton, have been filed with the territorial secretary. It proposes to buy and sell real estate, loan money, etc. Its capital stock is 8100.000. E. T. White, J. C. McVav and E. Odiorne, of Yankton, and six Boston capitalists are the di- rectors. Sully county keeps its prisoners in the Hughes county jail and during a late settlement of accounts the sheriff of Hughes county made.oath that he had fed the prisoners, five in number and three of them children, for their dally fare each for six months two and half pounds of beef, six pounds of pota- toes, two loaves of bread and all the incidents and et ceteras. .

The blizzard of last week was much more severe south and east of here, but for a November storm It was quite sufficient at this point. No causualties are reported in this vicinity.

Dave Gowdy's " bat1 eye " is not the result of his visit to Chicago, but was caused by a piece of steel lodging there­in. A physician at Clinton, Iowa, re­moved the troublesome object.

Information was received Tuesday afternoon that a blizzard was approach­ing from the west at the rate of forty miles an hour, and that it would strike this section at about midnight. It ap­pears however that the storm kept to the north of us, and as a consequence the roads in the vicinity of Aberdeen and EUendale are blockaded.

J. W. Kennedy, who so ably repre­sents Chamberlain & Co., of Des Moines, Iowa, made his annual visit to the Herald sanctum last week. Of their own accord this house has each year increased the rates paid to the Herald for advertising, thereby expressing more plainly than words could do, their estimate of its value as an adver­tising medium. From personal knowl­edge we can recommend their goods.

Miss Bessie Sharp, niece of Mrs. U. S. Grant, and for several years a resi­dent of Yankton, was to have been married to Lieut. Pettit of the regular armv at the residence of her-parents in Levenworth, Kansas, last week Wed-desday. But, on Tuesday night, as her affianced was going from a late train to a hotel he was attacked by a high­wayman, who shot and then robbed him. The .bullet struck the breast bone glancing downward, and had not been found at last accounts.

Ft. Scott, (Kan.) Monitor: While talking with D. A. Camp, the popular book-keeper at Page's Implement House, the subject of Cough Medincines was brought up. Says Camp, "there is one to which I feel deeply indebted. It has given relief time and time again to my wife and children. In fact I feel under the greatest obligations to Prichard Bros., Druggists, for persuad­ing me to buy a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I would not be with­out a bottle of it in the house for twice its cost. In regard to all throat complaints of children and for colds it is unsurpassed. You just try it once and you will be surprised at the re­sults." r

Owing to the non-arrival of the pa­per for this week's issue of the Herald, we give our readers the patents they should have received last week.

An exchange remarks very wisely: Some newspaper man who has been there says: "Newspaper editing is a very funny amusement. If you give a man a puff he never sees it; but let one line against him appear and he sees it before the paper is off the press; and while he would not have time to stop on the street and say "thank you," he h:is time to run all over town to denounce the editor who seeks to print the news. 'Twas ever thus.

Canton Advocate: The rubber stamp abortion is receiving favor in certain parts of Dakota. As one of our busi­ness men remarked the other dav there is nothing that gives away a business man so thoroughly as to daub up his letter heads, envelopes, etc., with a rubber stamp. The work always looks bad and it denotes a lack of enterprise on the part of the proprietor which does injustice to this portion of the country. The rubber stamp is quite popular among a certain class of ante-deluvian so-called business men of the east, but in the glorious northwest it obtains but little favor.

The Coming Storm.

Tress and Dukotaian.

Professor Foster, a Burlington, Iowa, meteorologist, enjoys the distinction of having predicted the blizzard which has just swept across the territories and states of the northwest. Flushed with succcss he has again put forth a prophecy which contains a dismal out­look for the immediate future. He says:

From December 4 to 17 will occur some of the most destructi--. winter storms of recent years. The storm force will be greater than that which caused the great storms • of October 9 and 15, anil many lives and much pro­perty can be saved from loss by making preparations for this uncommonly great storm period. These storms will be of much the same nature as were the terrible blizzards of last January 3, 7 and 10, which were predicted by us long before their occurrence", but the storm inlluence will be verv much greater during the storm period of next December.

As Professor Foster seems to have an advantage in the department of «torin warnings, it will be well to treat his prognostications with the respect which is their due. He has just hit the nail square on the head. He says his December storm will affect Illinois, Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska. Nothing is given relative to DaKota's fate, but the corner which lies in the angle formed by Nebraska and Iowa should keep its snow shoes handy. Prol'sssor Foster goes on to remark.

About December 4th is likely to com­mence a mild, light rain with heavy fogs, and on the 5th one of the worst storms of the year will set in, reaching the ninety-first meridian near Decem­ber 6th. A great electric ground cur­rent will sweep around ttie west and south sides of the storms on December 5th similar to but greater than that re­markable current ot January 3d, which telegraphers will remember almost totally disabled the telegraph through Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri. On December *Jth these storms will have reached the eastern states, and will there be very heavy. At the same time a cold wave will spread over these western states, while the high winds will make the drifting snows very troublesome. These storms will be re­newed on this meredian with less force on December 11th and 16th. We advise every precaution against these great winter storms.

All this would be sufficient, but the professor, haying his hand in, proceeds to relate:

The electric, or earthquake disturb­ance wil commence on the 4th and 5th and will be very heavy during this period of great storms. We will be surprised not to hear of great electric storms and earthquakes during this storm period.

Professor Foster bases his predic­tions upon the inlluence of the major planets. He is now man in the field and h^s not yet lost his reputation. Until that occurs his views are entitled to consideration.

The Fuel o f the Future.

From Demorest'tt Monthly.

It is a fact well known in manufac­turing circles that the vast bulk of the heat contained in coal is wasted. Only fourteen out of the hundred parts of carbon is actually utilized, llence. one of the problems of chemistry has been to get more power, in the way of heat and light, out of a given quantity of coal. Prof. T. S. C. Lowe claims to have solved this problem, a matter which is of vast importance, if it is a fact. The process is to pulverize the coal, and, in converting it into a gas, the coal is reduced to a powdered form so fine that it*wil'f lioat in the atmos­phere, and it is carried into the burn­ing furnace by a current of air artifici­ally produced. In the powdered form everything is consumed, as it makes no smoke and leaves no asher. This would utilize the mountains of so-called waste, now piled up near coal mines and manufactories. But Prof. Lowe's invention goes farther. The coal is converted into a water gas. A ton of anthracite coal will generate from eighty to a hundred cubic feet of giis. The cost will be about nine cents a cubic foot. This invention is already in use in the city of Troy, in the laun­dries of that place, and is also used for power and for heating and cooking in hotels and restaurants. The gas furn­ished is non-luminous and resembles that from alcohol. It has no odor and is intensely hot. These facts have come out in a report to the Scran ton Board of Trade, which calls the new invention anthrcite gas. The result will be a marvelous economy in the heating of houses and the cooking of food, while one ton of coal will go as far as a hundred of tons nowadavs.

We publish this week combination prices of a number of eastern newspa­pers and magazines when subscribed for at this office. To receive the bene­fit of these prices all arreages to the Herald must be paid to date of sub­scribing. At the prices offered, none should be without reading matter.

The Way They Got Votes.

Bismarck Journal.

What the farmers of McLean county want to know, now, is whether Council­man-elect Hughes and Representative-elect Williams intend to have the seed wheat delivered or will they require the farmers to come to Bismarck with their teams and bigs. The farmers understand that, these gentlemen hav­ing been elected, they will get seed wheat from the legislature, and it is important to them to know where and « hen they are to receive it. It would be embarassing to Messrs. Hughes and Williams to have two hundred farmers waiting on them, each carrying a bun­dle of bags and crying that seed time is come. Let them announce their pro­gramme early. ''••'.'*3^
