UBLICATION In The Court of Common PleaS of Wy andotte County Kansas. Isaac Whitseett ..... Plaintiff vs. Charles Jackheck, Rosa Jackheck George E. Tewksbury ..... Defendan State of Kansas to the defendants above named Greeting: You and each of you will take notice that you have been sued by the above named plaintiff who filed his Petition against you in the above entitled court on the 30th day June 1903, and that you must answer a petition on or before the 14th day of August 1903 or said petition will be taken as true and judgment rendered against you accordingly quieting the title of the plaintiff to lots 1, 2, 3, 4, a and 5, in block 7. Brigham and Lloys O chard Highland and addition located in Wyandotte County Kansas and forming a part of the city of Rosedale as the same is designated on the recorded plat thereof, and forever excluding you and each of you from any estate in, claim to or lein, upon said premises, or any part thereof, and forever enjoining you each of you and all persons claim under or through you from asserting any claim the reto adverse to the plaintiff. Everybody do not think alike; some think foolishly, some think wisely and good many do not think at all. Now the man who thinks is almost always the safest one to follow; the fellow who thinks but little or never thiuks at all, is a sure oser in his efforts to lead a thinking people-Florida Sentinel. Rev. M. Phillips and his members attended the Primitive Baptist church association at Fort Scotte Kansas last week. Dr C. H. C Jordan, s south American English Slang in France. Never have the French made use of so many English words as during the past season. The world of "sport" began the practice some years ago, and it had this excuse, that it drew its horses, its "trainers" and its "jockeys" from the other side of the channel. But nowadays French society indulges in a positive debauch of exotic terms. One goes no longer "sur le champ des courses," but "on the turf." The horses go round the "ring." The "donneurs de Paris" are "bookmakers." The "gross pontes," "plungers." A "thoroughbred" (pur sang) is no longer "bolteux," but "broken down."—Paris letter. Some Useful Recipes Among members of the Greek church in Macedonia the following recipes are regarded as highly useful: To pacify one's enemies write the psalm "Known in Judea," dissolve it in water, and give your enemy to drink thereof, and he will be pacified. For a startled and frightened man take three dry chestnuts and sow-thistle and three glasses of old wine and let him drink thereof early and late; write also "In the beginning was the Word," and let him carry it.

Uncle Sam is a stern stickler for corn, and the amount of red tape employed in the custom house is really remarkable. It was demonstrated the other day that not even a tiny mouse can creep into our domain from foreign shores without paying duty, says the Philadelphia Record. A gentleman returning from Europe brought with him a pet white mouse, of which he had grown very fond. His "mouselees" was assessed at 20 per cent, which so enraged its owner that he vigorously protested. The case was appealed, and the board of classification of the board of general appraisers, after mature deliberation in solemn conclave, handed down a decision in which the protest was overruled.

I have used the free trial and two full boxes of Doan's Pills with the satisfaction of feeling that I am cured. They are the remedy per excellence.” B. F. BALLARD. Not Over Particular. Again has the Wichita Eagle done its worst. It calls Kansas City a "predaceous abrection." The Ottawa Republic's department of "In Railroad Circles" includes news from the round house. The state asylum for the deaf and dumb in Olathe has been provided with a telephone. Farmers living within a day's march of Ft. Riley are beginning to appreciate how the people of Georgia felt when Sherman marched to the sea. Only one complaint has been made in the past week of a shortage of freight cars, and it came from Rush county, where they are always in a hurry. A few years ago Wichita would have immediately called a special election to vote bonds for the purpose of keeping Cresceus there. Hereafter the drug store in Chillcothe will close at 7:30 p. m. sharp, and scratching on the back door will not go any more. The asylum in Winfield for feebleminded children is to be "investigated" as the result of the death of Lizzle Snell, a girl from Johnson county. Following the Topeka asylum precedent, it will probably be found that she was "killed in self defense." While the musical critic had only kind words for Suzanne Adam's singing, he adds that her dress added greatly to the gaiity of the frivolous "She appeared last night," the Gazette says, "in a gown that was ten degrees and eight minutes lower than Emporia propriety tolerates, and the train was so long that when the owner stood at the front of the stage the end of the train was said to have not left the dressing room. Sometime, somewhere, somehow, somebody may come to me and unselfishly commend me for something I have said or done, but I do not expect it," says Bent Murdock in the Eldorado Republican. "On the other hand, I expect to go on to the end dodging swipes, edging away from ill-mannered criticisms, and in other ways trying to avoid as many of the rasping things of life as possible, trusting that when peace finally comes nobody will take the trouble to throw stones at the vehicle that is hired to haul me to the graveyard." Latest reports from Fort Riley confirm the earlier rumors that the Blue army was done up Brown. In the meantime, messengers from the bedside of the Coal trust bring the tidings that it is Just About the Same. Several weeks must elapse before the Rev. C. M. Sheldon, of Topeka, who broke a leg a few days ago, is able to walk in anybody's steps. Although the Minneapolis Messenger contends that it hates the devil and all his works, it admits that it can't help admiring his industry. According to Ed Howe, the real "problem" that will be worked out at the Fort Riley maneuvers is how to remove mud stains from clothes. Great restraint is shown by the Wichita correspondents in admitting that Crespeus clipped only ine-fourth of a second off the world's trotting record. A sad finish is being predicted for the young woman whose name is Claudia, who is going to tour Western Kansas this fall with a series of re-citals. William Allen White, who has been delegated to write a play for Ezra Kendall, might base a mirth-provoking comedy upon the antics of the Boss Busters. Abilene's latest claim to distinction is that a citizen of that town is one of 'Lige Dowie's "Restoration host" which is trying to show New York the error of its way. A goose in Leavenworth is said to have laid $267 worth of eggs in the seventeen years of its life, and perhaps the goose may be able to convince some of the other geese that it is true. If Representative Curtis get an act through Congress appropriating one million dollars to straighten the Kaw, Father Beck of Holton serves notice that he will insist upon a generous creek and the Delaware river, in Jackson county, which also are addicted to the overflow habit. Although the Howard street fair was held two weeks ago most of the citizens are still able to shed confetti every time they shake themselves. It is feared that unless something is done speedily to subdue them, the Marlon Record and the Troy Chief will discontinue diplomatic relations. Now that a year and a half has elapsed since the Atchison Champion changed hands, the proposition to name it Presto has been abandoned.

Pure food history clearly proves, however, that I was working along correct and practical lines. No better illustration of this can be given than the fact that seven out of every ten American housewives unhesitably admit that the Baking Powder and Flavoring Extracts that bear my name are unmistakably the best. During all these years I have devoted myself to the single purpose of creating a scientifically prepared, ready-to-eat wheat flake celery food. Finally, after nearly half a century of effort, I confidently launched DR. PRICE'S FOOD, the only celery cream wheat flake. This food I consider a triumphant success. Its inherent merit and quality will win its way to the top as have my Cream Baking Powder and Flavoring Extracts. I invite criticism from culinary chemists and from the educated palate of the罐.

Seventy-five per cent of our foreign born population in 1900 was of Teutonic and Celtic stock—the very same that made the English. Of course, a still larger percentage of the native born are of these races and of their admixture. It is an error, then, to talk of the American people as a conglomeration of races. There is an American race, formed by fusion of the original races that made the English. Ask You Druggist for Allen's Foot-Ease.

England's Iron Imports. The large imports of iron ore into England—about one-third of the total amount consumed—is not due to any fear of the exhaustion of the supply in Great Britain, but to a desire to save the nonphosphorous iron used in the acid process. There is a large, almost unlimited supply of iron, containing phosphorus in Scotland and in the Cleveland and Staffordshire mines. The imported ore is largely from Bilboa, Spain. Opium Smoking in France. For some time past doctors in France have been warning the public against the dangers of the latest craze—opium smoking. The habit has been introduced by officers and others home from Indo-China, and gradually extended to society at Marseilles and Toulon. After being adopted in other seaports, the mania has now reached Paris, where it is reported to have widely spread. Miss Ethel Bailey of Crystal Springs, Miss., sister of Senator Bailey of Texas has entered Mississippi politics as a candidate for state librarian. For a Bad Back. Sabra, Montana, Oct. 19th.—A great many men in this neighborhood used to complain of pains in the back, but now scarcely one can be found who has any such trouble. Mr. Gottlieb Min is largely responsible for the improvement for it was he, who first of all found the remedy for this Backache. He has recommended it to all his friends and neighbors, and in every case it has had wonderful success. Mr. Mill says:— "For many years I had been troubled with my Kidneys and pains in the small of my back. I tried many medicines but did not derive any benefit until last fall, when I bought a dozen boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills. After using them a few days I began to improve, my back quit aching and I felt better and stronger all around. "I will keep them in the house right along for in my opinion they are the best medicine in the market to-day, and if my back should bother me again, I will use nothing else."

CONSUMPTION FAILURES CEASE TROUBLE SEEMS TO BE AT AN END IN BALTIMORE. $4,000,000 FROM BANKS IN NEW YORK Big Shipment of Currency Tended to Restore Confidence—Many Conferences Were Held During the Day—Prominent Banker Said That No Further Trouble Was Probable. BALTIMORE, MD.—(Special.) All the banks and other financial institutions in Baltimore were opened promptly at the customary hour Tuesday. Among financiers generally there was a uniform expression of confidence that no other suspensions are now probable and that whatever of panicky feeling was manifested Monday over the failure of the Maryland and Union companies has practically disappeared. On the stock exchange the sentiment during the whole day Tuesday was optimistic and in the closing hours there was evidently not a member who feared further trouble. A factor in allaying apprehension was the knowledge that many of the financial institutions had strengthened their resources during the night. A large amount of currency from New York, Philadelphia and Washington was sent to Baltimore during the night and this morning. How much was received is not definitely known, but it is estimated that between $3,000,000 and $5,000,000 is in the vaults of banks and trust companies which was not there Monday. One of the reassuring incidents of the day is the announcement that the Union Trust Company, one of the suspended companies, will resume business in a few days. Another incident that gave confidence was an inquiry from the treasury department at Washington, asking if the national banks needed assistance. Four millions of dollars which arrived here early Tuesday morning by express from New York, Philadelphia and Washington, cleared the financial atmosphere and at the closing time of the various monetary institutions Tuesday afternoon there was every confidence that the crisis in the financial district of the city had been safely passed. Every incoming train during the afternoon and evening brought packages of money to the banks and trust companies, and it is estimated that there is at least $8,000,000 of currency in the vaults of the financial institutions of the city. Conferences were held during the evening between various interests and it was stated by a prominent banker that no further trouble among the banks or financial institutions of the city was probable. The directors and the receiver of the Maryland Trust Company, the first to close its doors on Monday, held a conference and discussed ways and means, but late Tuesday night Receiver Allen McLane said he had nothing to make public, although he expressed the opinion that the company would in the near future be in position to pay dollar for dollar to all its depositors and creditors. The directors of the Union Trust Company also held a long session during the day. While the statement of assets and liabilities of this company is not ready to be presented to the courts, Receiver White expressed the opinion that the company will in a few days resume business. Other banking and trust companies have been well fortified with currency and not further trouble is expected from any quarter. NEW YORK.—(Special.) The local banks in response to calls from Baltimore correspondents shipped a large amount of money to that city Tuesday, $800,000 being sent through the subtreasury up to noon, and $700,000 being sent through private channels to the same place, making a total of $1,500,-000. A considerable amount was also sent late Monday. The money went to various institutions in Baltimore which wanted to be prepared for any emergency that might happen. It was thought here that this precaution would enable Baltimore to get through without any further trouble. Arrest Editor for Libel. GUTHRIE, OKLA.—(Special.) T. F. Hensley, editor of the El Reno Daily Democrat, has been arrested on a charge of criminally libeling John W. Clark, city attorney of El Reno. Hensley, it appears, printed statements claiming among other things that Clark tried to extort money in his official duties. Hensley is out on $100 bond. The case will be heard soon. Military in Charge of a Woman. LINCOLN, NEB.—(Special.) The military affairs of Nebraska are in the hands of a young woman, owing to the absence from the state of Adjutant General Culver.

General Culver and his alces are attending the maneuvers at Fort Riley and the affairs of the office have been left in care of Miss Greer, who is the adjutant general's chief clerk and stenographer. THEY BOUGHT HIS Two Chinese In Canada Pay a Count Ayman Ahmad of Confirm Pay tryman to Confess to Murder. VANCOUVER, British Columbia. (Special.) Three Chinese here are accused of the murder of another Chinese at French Bar last summer. The trial will begin at Clinton, British Columbia, this week. It is said that the two younger prisoners have induced the third and oldest to accept the onus of the crime. The provincial police say that, following a Chinese custom, the two young prisoners have paid the old man for his life One morning two Chinese, who lived and worked at French Bar, appeared at the nearest neighbor's with a story that their partner had been murdered and his body thrown into the river by a Chinaman who lived six miles below French Bar. The accused was arrested. He was a weak-minded, decrepit old man. He denied knowledge of the crime. The two informing Chinese, lusty young men, were arrested and accused of the murder. Although he denied knowledge of the crime when arrested, the old Chinese now stoutly maintains that he did the killing. SAILORS IN CANADA'S WILDS. A Shipwrecked Crew Walked 600 Miles to Safety. OTTAWA, ONTARIO.—(Special.) After suffering terrible hardships in a 600-mile march through the wilds of Northern Canada, Captain Ferry and forty-seven members of the crew of the steamer Eldorado of Liverpool passed through this city Sunday for Montreal. The Eldorado, of 550 tons burden, struck an uncharted rock at the entrance of Hudson bay, near Fort George, and sank. All the crew reached shore, but were restitute of provisions, and saved only the clothing they wore. The ship and crew comprised an exploration and trading expedition sent out by a stock company. Nothing was saved from the wreck. The men marched through the wilderness forty-two days. Their suffering was intense, but no one succumbed. They found the Temscaming railroad and were taken on board a passing train and brought here. MANY REPORTED DROWNED. A Steamer Sunk Off the Coast of Oregon. MARSHFIELD, ORE. — (Special.) The steamship South Portland, which sailed from Portland Sunday morning for San Francisco, was wrecked near Bandon, and it is feared that many of her passengers and crew drowned. The vessel struck in the darkness and sank in a few minutes. The vessel had thirty-four persons on board, twenty-three in the crew and eleven passengers. Two boats were manned but both capsized and several of the occupants were thrown into the sea and drowned. The captain, the cook, and five passengers reached shore in safety, but it is feared that at least eighteen persons are dead. A life raft was seen in the breakers with twelve people on it, and the life saving crew is now endeavoring to find them. A MILLION FOR NAVY YARDS. Details of the Estimates for 1905. Have Been Issued.

Other important items are magazine shells and filing house, Philippine islands, $50,000. PITTSBURG, PA.—(Special.) In the United tSates district court Tuesday, I. N. Ross pleaded guilty to an indictment for embezzling moneys of the United States. Ross is the former deputy surveyor of the port, who, September 11, took a package of money from the office of the collector of the port to be shipped to the subtreasury in Philadelphia. The package contained $3,000, and when received in Philadelphia $600 was missing. Since his arrest it is said Ross has made restitution to the government. BRIEF BITS OF NEWS. L. J.

Hurls It With Mighty Sound Against the idle Rich—"They Society? Has Caliban Grace? Is Tom Thumb Manhood?"—Mr. Watterson Lectures Small Audience. PITTSBURG, PA.—(Special.) Henry Watterson delivered his lecture on "Society," Friday evening in Carnegie Music Hall, Alleghey; before a small but enthusiastic audience. The unusually cold weather that prevailed during the evening was responsible for the light attendance. Mr. Watterson said: "Something over a year ago a most lamentable tragedy, taking for its scene the very vestibule of the temple of fashion—the sanctum-sanctorum of the Four Hundred led me, in the line of my duty as a writer for tue press, to say some exceeding plain, and, it may have been thought, some very harsh things about the nouveaux riches—the idle rich, the God-forgetting, world-defying, pleasure-seeking rich—who set themselves as a law unto themselves, who submit to no restraint except those fixed by nature and the surgeon's knife, who have no intellectual perspective except that the longest purse brings down the biggest titles, no rule of conduct except that impelling them to eat, drink and be merry, for to-morrow it may be some one else's turn; a code which I am told became altogether the rage in Babylon some centuries ago.

Indeed, one would think so, reading some of the reports that come to us from the inner circles of that apotheosis of boredom, that incarnation of stupidity and affectation, which takes its cue from Leicester Square and the Corinthian Club in London, which emulates the demi-mondaine of Paris, which eddies around the abodes of luxury and alimony at Newport, and thinks no more of running down an ordinary pedestrian in an automobile than you and I would think of brushing away a spider or a fly. "Sursum Corda, lift up your hearts. I at least have never wasted my thoughts, or nursed any serious fears, about such cattle, nor shall I do so until monkey-dinners become as popular in Pennsylvania as they seem to be in Rhode Island. I know that in each of our centers of population and wealth there is a little coterie of silly women and simpering Johnnies which would imitate the imitators; but they are too shallow and too scattered to make much headway against society, and by society I mean not merely those who, by their character, their genius and their good fortune, have earned the right to dwell in great houses, without the suspicion of the astentious display of wealth—to have picture galleries and libraries and horses and carriages, and, if they please, yachts and automobiles—but behind them that great army of the well-bred and well-to-do, that noble American commonalty, clean of birth and clear of girth, those cultivated scandal and travel without adventure—not rich, indeed, but quite able to pay as they go—the rose and expectancy of true manhood and womanhood, the very buttress and bell-tower of our free republic. "These constitute what I call society, Radiating from the home-thrice blessed in 'dad' and 'mam' and 'granny' yea, in 'Bill and Joe, Sis and Co',—its influence penetrates the dark and the light, reaching from the fireside to the counting room, from the counting room to the asylum and the hospital, and, somehow, finding its way back again to the roof-tree and the heartstone via the school house and the house of God: never a thought of the divorce court—not so much as the shadow of 'a noble lord' to disturb its serenity or to frighten its dreams.

Makes 18.05 Knots an Hour Under Adverse Conditions—Tidal Corrections Will Increase Speed to 18.22 Knots—New Record for Battleships of Her Class. BOSTON, MASS. — (Special.) The new battleship Missouri, steered by Captain Howse has proved herself the queen of the seas in her class in a speed trial trip over the Cape Ann course, with weather conditions of a considerably handicapping nature. Steaming over o course of thirty-three nautical miles and return, the battleship made the trip in 3 hours, 39 minutes 24½ seconds, an average speed of 18.05 knots per hour, which with tidal corrections greatly in her favor, it is believed, will advance the average speed to 18.22, a new world's record for battleships of her class. The first part of the run was made against a strong northwest breeze, which kept down the speed to 17.64 knots, but coming back the conditions were more favorable and the thirty-three knots were covered in 1 hour 47 minutes 9 seconds, a speed of 18.46 knots per hour. The battleship at one time attained a speed of 18.75 knots per hour. The contract requirements call for 18 knots, and a margin was very gratifying to the government officials on board. The best previous record made by a battleship in the Missouri's class is that of the Maine, a sister ship, which was 17.98 knots per hour. The Missouri had on board the naval trial board and a number of naval officers stationed in and near Boston. The weather was clear, but a stiff quartering breeze blew from the north-west and roughed up the water considerably. The vessels marking the course were stationed 6.6 knots apart and the Missouri's lowest elapsed time between any two of the mark boats was 21 minutes 8 seconds, made on the homeward leg, which makes her best actual speed 18.75 knots per hour. On the northern leg, the engine attained a speed of 121 revolutions a minute and the average for the entire trial was 117. Commander Cowles said that the tidal corrections would no doubt add .17 of a knot per hour to the speed of the ship. At the conclusion of the speed test, the Missouri was tested as to her steering abilities. She described the figure 8, turning in from 20 to 25 seconds, with an angle of heel of about 4 per cent. The usual stopping, backing and anchoring tests were then given, at the conclusion of which the vessel returned to Boston light and after landing her passengers started for Newport News.

"I was always a delicate, spoiled child and my parents used to let me drink coffee because I would cry for it," says a Georgia young woman. "When I entered school my nervousness increased and my parents thought it was due to my going to school, so they took me out again. But I did not get any better and my headaches got worse and weakened me so that I was unfit for any duty. Sometimes I would go a whole day without any other nourishment than a cup of coffee. "Last spring I had a bad attack of the Grippe and when I recovered I found that coffee nauseated me so I could not drink it and even a few swallows would cause a terrible burning in my stomach. It was at this time that a friend who had been much benefited by the use of Postum suggested that I try this food drink. I found it simply delicious and have used it ever since and the results speak for themselves. I have gained 12 pounds and my nerves are as steady as any one's. "I consider myself well and strong and I make it a point now to take a cup of Postum with a cracker or two as soon as I come home from school in the afternoon. Postum with crackers or a biscuit makes my luncheon. It certainly saved my life for I know coffee would have killed me a time had I continued drinking it. time here I recommend "I have a young girl friend, a step grapher, who declares nothing strengthens and refreshes her like Postum and she has a little oil store in her office and makes a cup of Postum at noontime. I have recommended this wonderful beverage to many of my friends who know what it has done for me." Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich. tum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.
