We know we have enemies and na-
re has made them so.
EDITORIAL
We are not going to retract one single item if the "smart set" to whose reference is given don't like it come back.
When the "boss busters" get through with us we will have our say. And don't be angry "darlinge" you will get your full share.
Our highest ambition is to "even up" with our blood thirsty "assassins" after that we are willing to go any old place. It will not be long when we will be able to "even up" either from the way things are shaping,
The fact on the newspapers opposing us because they don't like our style is simply fun and good for thou hought. Those "perfect rascals" should have a chance to have their linen aired and we are of the utmost certainty those who have lied on us will get their just deserts for all they have done.
We are no more guilty of committing a crime than those scamps who have circulated it. It seems to be an exquisite pleasure for the "good y goody" to always gayly harp on something that they will injure us but echo says not so. It will never harm us only harm those who rejoiced and kept it going the rounds of the, "long tongue liar."
We never have been as drunk as a number of "stinkers" who have lied on us and the majority of people in this state knows it to be true. We have even drank booze with fellow who rejoice to tell the people we were drunk.
The charge of drunk against us holds good and we are told of good authority that the man who crushed us out of the Supt office is pretty good "boozer".
After 27 years in this state a cranny Negro from Reno county tries to disgrace us.
The president of the United states has told the fellows to let Mr Curtis done. They are only silly enough to continue they don't know the use of a competent man. An oid "darkey" in heavenworth told us that he wanted a white man to represent his people that Curtis was an Indian. We told him how "silly" he was and for God sake he was liable to get assassinated over such remarks. In view of all Mr Curtis, good work for Negroes hence one can easily see what false doctrine an and will do although the man as silded may be "Christ-like."
It is strange to repeat that she big early Negro "bouncers at the State house, who interfere with reputable colored citizens who go there on business are not wearing a gold medal as they thought at the time of our ejection they would but now it is our time to talk and you tellows keep silent. We are going to put an end to this damnable tyrannical work and justice or be the means of putting everyone connected with this unpleasant affair off the state ticket so help so they will consider her help but we have rights that shall be rejected. It might be fun now but it will be no fun then.
The sheriff of Leavenworth county is a democrat and we are proud to say ex newspaper man and a mighty capable sheriff. Justice Meyers is a gentleman rebellious of his politics and it is not doubtful of his re-election when his present term of office expires. It will be remembered the writer is a Republican but we need it an unsafe venture to turn a good capable man down on his second term before he was born a democrat, the State Ledger don't things that way, any man who has seen service on a newspaper, trying to reach the goal can always get the best of things at, outends and at the hands of our needs, so mote it be.
Kansas City Kansas can still
coast of not a "drop."
We may be run out of business
but let us give you a pointer
while we are in business the a-
le will continue to scream.

C.F.T. COLLINS.
Captain John C. Collins, of this county has been appointed Custodian of the state Capitol and grounds, Tampa, as a salary of $100 a month toook charge of his office October 1. The position was tendered him by the executive council which is composed or the Governor State Treasurer, Auditor Attorney General, Secretary of State and State Superintendent of Schools, Mr. Thomas T. Kelley proposed the name of Captain Collins, Governor Bailey was the only one of the executive council who voted against him.
Captain Collins is one of the best known Republicans in Eastern Kansas. He came to this county 38 years ago and located in Richland township where he lived until 1903, when after the death of Mrs. Collins, he removed with his family to Paola. From January, 1885 to January, 1891, he was Probate Judge of this county, selected 'each time on the republican ticket
In politics he is a vigorous worker, always loyal to his party and to his friends. Born in Kentucky, he entered the Union army a few hours after Lincoln first call for troops first reached his home and he served clean through the war. He belongs to that class of republicans whom Plumb decribed as those "who stand without hitching." In a campaign he fights to win—fights hard—but as soon as it is over he's ready to forgive and forget. His methods is clean and his honour is above repression—Western Spirit
The editor of this paper was pleased to meet Captain Coln nss for the first time and found the "genial" at his desk The Captain is no stranger to the colored people and have a large number in his employ at the Capitol making g
great effort to treat them kindly, Capt Collins is a new addition to the State House fraternity and will from the way he began become one of the most popular officians in the department.

The continued advance in the prices of Whistler's pictures reveals the wisdom of the scriptural observation that to die is gain.
Perhaps Mr. H. B. Marriott Watson thinks that by making savage attacks on American women he can get them to read his books.
When the Norwich Bulletin says that the czar's verses are not of the royal rank, we presume it means that they are just rank.
What Lord Kitchener said while he was lying alone and helpless in that Simla tunnel—well, as Klipling would say, that is another story.
Prof. Hussey in New South Wales announces that he has discovered ten new double stars. Where had Prof. Hussey spent the evening?
Astronomers say our sun is one of the younger sets of stars. May not the spots now reported as having broken out be only a sort of infantile rash?
W. B. Yeats, the Irish poet, says Kipling has sold his soul to the devil. But what is more to the point, Kipling sells his poetry right along at stiff prices.
Holland is in a panic on account of stocks, and banks are bursting. We hear other suspicious sounds from Holland besides "Rotterdam" and "Amsterdam."
There is a man in the East who claims to be 161 years of age and a steady drinker of whiskey. The name of the poorhouse in which he resides is not mentioned.
Lord Cromer, the ruler of Egypt, has published a book of poems, and the Egyptian critics are giving it high praise. Become a ruler first and then write your poetry.

A Chicago newspaper tells a story of a jackrabbit who bounded straight toward a hunter, landed on his gun, discharged it and nearly killed the sportive gentleman. A hare trigger, as it were.

To read that 3,000 witnesses and 50 lawyers will appear at the trial of the persons charged with the Kishlneff atrocities—that is interesting. To read that the trial will be in secret and that no officials or leading persons incriminated will be tried—that is instructive.

MY LADY.
Upon her face
A thousand timples smile for me:
Of love the work of love the grace;
Beside the rest you cannot see
Upon her face.
Her pretty lips
Are full of laughter and of mirth,
And all your words outwit eclipse;
Love makes his palace upon earth
Her pretty lips.
Her rounded throat
Of marble seems that lies beneath;
No mortal yet has dared to note
Save with the eyes of love and faith
Her rounded throat.
Her tender voice
So sweetly strikes on lover's ear;
And when she sings the notes rejoice
Once more the harmony to hear
Of her sweet voice.
—Regnard in New York Tribune.
Above, a stretch of sapphire blue flecked with little fringes of fleecy white; here and there tinted with delicate purple and gold, into which the grey heads of the hoary mountains, standing firm and rugged against the shaded back-ground, peered inquisitively as though seeking to penetrate the vast unknown of the illimitable space; below, the peaceful vales, turf-grown and heavily wooded, the sparkling ripple of the little brook, babbling in its twisted journey through the dale—the little flashes of gray color, as the golden arrows of the sun struck the shy wild-flowers. Altogether it was a spot for an ideal home.
So thought Ernest Hardy, as he dallied at the gate of his cabin, bidding farewell for the day to wife and child. The light played about his powerful face; it flashed back, reflected the deep, dark eyes—and it glided lightly over the brawny form, pictureque in the blue-fannel shirt and velveteen riding breeches. He wore a black sombrero, tilted back across the dark brown curly hair. He looked what he was—a son of the plains—the simple, credulous, earnest 'offspring of Nature.
The girl, for she was but a mere girl, seemed strangely out of place midst the craggy surroundings. Slight of form, with a dainty, little head, poised bird-like; a dreamy, pensive, almost babyish face, crowned by a great mass of golden-brown hair, and most wonderful blue eyes, innocent and confiding, with the surprised gaze of a little child in them, eyes that thrilled the man to the very soul, as he drank in her beauty and loving looks. She wore a pink gown; her white hands were devoid of rings, save the plain gold band.
The baby, a little bundle of white, nestling in her mother's arms, did not prattle and chatter as usual, but looked out at the vast world, with sad, helpless eyes—the eyes of the girl who held her.
The man first broke the silence saying: "Sure you're not afraid, Puss? You know I can't be home till suppertime, and that means nine hours alone."
"Why, Ern," answered the girl, "no one has ever bothered me these three years, and I don't see why to-day should prove an exception; but I am worried about baby. She does not seem to feel well, and isn't as bright as usual."
But Ern, after the fashion of his sex, was not disturbed so easily, and tossing up the dear little child in his arms, he said: "Papa's baby's all right, isn't she?" Why, pshaw, Puss, her eyes are bright and her cheeks are full of color. I guess there's no danger. Blackly is in prison, and Gentleman Fred hasn't been 'round this section lately."
"And besides, Ern, I have giant Lars, whom nothing is able to overcome," said the girl.
"Except the whisky bottle," answered her husband, as throwing kisses in farewell, he rode down the slope, into the valley, only pausing to shout back: "I'll send the doctor up to look at Amy. Puss!"
Baby Amy soon entered the land of Nod, and Dorothy Hardy went about her household tasks, thinking how much she had to be thankful for. Husband, child, and the dear home, to say nothing of the rich silver vein discovered on the ranch. Never had the garden appeared so glorious. The golden pilfers hummed drowsily among the fragrant heliotropes; the
A son of the plains. heavy-headed roses nodded in their sleep, and the fuschia bells seemed to tinkle hazily in the dense morning maze.
"Come, sweetheart," she cried to the little one, who was slumbering with the kitten by her side; "come, pet, we will call Lars and have dinner." But baby said frettly: "Me don't want no dinner; baby sick." Dorothy was thoroughly terrified now. She ran to the stable, to call Lars and send for the doctor. Alas; during the few hours of her husband's absence, Lars, the sturdy Scandinavian woman, a match for any new
only enemy, and there he lay on the stable floor, an empty jug a short distance from his hand.
Much troubled, Dorothy was endeavoring to find out what she could do when she heard the sound of norse's hoofs coming up the road.
"The doctor," she cried out, joyfully, and running out of the yard she called, "O, hurry, doctor; the baby breathes so strangely."
A blond, boyish-looking man alighted before the house, and tied his realess horse to one of the fencopalings. His face was humorous in its expression; his eyes were mild blue, his nose long and thin, and his
Worked faithfully over the child
sandy hair inclined to waviness. He was smooth-shaven, and carried an eyeglass tied to a black silk cord. He was attired in a navy blue riding suit; a soft hat, pulled down low over his forehead, shadowed an intelligent countenance. He took from the saddle a small emergency case, and followed the anxious mother into the inner room, where the baby was tossing feverishly upon the bed. "Did Mr. Hardy tell you what was the matter?" asked Dorothy.
"No," answered the man; then in one glance he saw that the dreaded croup was making fast headway. "Bring me some hot water and sugar, quick," he cried, drawing a bottle from his case. The mother swiftly and quietly did his blinding. Hour after hour he worked faithfully over the child; the perspiration began to come, the breathing grew more regular, the blue eyes opened, and with a contented smile, and her fingers clasped tightly about the stranger's hand, little Amy fell into a calm sleep. "How can I ever repay you, doctor?" began the girl. Far away upon the road the man heard the thud of hurrying horses' hoofs. He smiled and glanced up in a quizical manner. "Do you know who I am?" he asked. "Why," replied the girl in astonishment, "you're the doctor I told Ern to send up from town this morning, aren't you?"
"Unfortunately," he answered, half pathetically, "I am not the doctor, but an outlaw, a road agent—the desperado, whom the marshal and his posse are even now hunting—and his rope is at its end," he added, as the horses galloped around the bend. "Call them in quietly, but don't wake the child; this sleep is worth tons of medicine. I won't make a disturbance, but will surrender without a row. Good-by, baby!" and with this he bent over and kissed the golden head.
But the girl confronted him with flashing eyes as he was about to step forth into the clutches of the men, who were rapidly drawing near. "Sit down by the bed," she commanded; then she quickly darkened the windows, closed the door, and ran out to the gate, just in time to meet her husband and the men.
"Don't make any noise, Ern," she called out, "baby has been very sick, and the doctor has just got her to sleep. Where are these gentlemen going?"
"Oh, we thought we were on the trail of a road agent," answered the marshal; "of course you haven't seen any such person pass to-day, have you?" "I have seen and heard nothing but baby," answered the girl. "It was a good thing that the doctor was so prompt, Ern!"
The men after wishing the baby continued good health, rode away to the west.
"But I didn't see the doctor at all," said the puzzled husband; "he was over in Pine Center and would not be back until evening."
"Ern, the doctor is the man they are hunting—the road agent. Lars was drunk; the baby almost dying. I mistook him for the doctor, and called him in; but for his prompt measures, our little Amy would now be far beyond the reach of medical aid. Shall we give him up to justice?"
Husband and wife entered the
ing the little figure of the smiling sleeping child. Ernest Hardy was a brave man, but his heart stood still as he gazed, as though fascinated, upon the youthful countenance of the most notorious outlaw in the west. "Gentleman Fred!" he gasped. "Do not be alarmed for your little one," said the outlaw, slowly; "once upon a time the world knew me as Dr. St. Ermund, although that period is long gone by." Holding out his hand, Hardy said, huskily: "God bless you." And the girl added, with tears in her eyes: "Good-by, Dr. St. Edmund; ride quickly to the east." And Gentleman Fred went forth to a new life, saved both in body and soul, by the hand of a little child.
CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY.
And it Cost the Smart Drummer a Dinner for Three.
A book agent, a drummer and a life insurance man were chatting in front of the sub-treasury in Wall street the other day. The book agent, who is said to be an artist in his profession, began to blow about his success. He said he never found much trouble in persuading people to buy books, and then he claimed that he could approach an utter stranger and borrow a dollar from him by the sheer force of his personality. This was disputed vehemently by the other two, and while the argument was waxing warm an elderly man, with a shrewd, clean-shaven face, happened to pass.
"That's Russell Sage," remarked the insurance man to the drummer, with an air of superior wisdom.
The drummer thought he saw a chance of getting a shade the best of it. Turning to the book agent, he said: "Til bet you a dinner for the three of us that you can't borrow a quarter, let alone a dollar, from that old man, walking up the street."
"I'll go you," replied the book agent, starting in pursuit.
The man of nerve accosted his victim, apparently got him interested, and then steered him up against a store window out of the way of the passing crowd. His two chums could not hear what he was saying, but they could see by his motions and expression that he was doing the pleading of his life. It was a long, hard job, but at last nerve wont out, and the book agent returned with a satisfied expression on his face and a bright new quarter.
A broker who was passing was told about the wager, and they pointed out to him the old man walking slowly up the street.
"Gosh," shouted the broker, "that ain't Russel Sage."

Mark Twain's Experience with the Irascible Painter.
Mark Twain described recently his first meeting with James McNeill Whistler.
"I was introduced to Mr. Whistler," he said, "in his studio in London. I had heard that the painter was an incorrigible joker, and I was determined to get the better of him, if possible. So at once I put on my most hopelessly stupid air, and I drew near the canvas that Mr. Whistler was completing.
"That ain't bad," I said. "It ain't bad, only here in this corner"—and I made as if to rub out a cloud effect with my finger. "I'd do away with that cloud if I was you.
"Whistler cried nervously:
"Gad, sir, be careful there. Don't you see the paint is not dry?"
"Oh, that don't matter," said I. I've got my gloves on.
"We got on well together after that."
Burden Bearers.
Here's a prayer for the man that's tired,
Tired in the tail and moll and stress,
For the man whose feet are heavy mired
When the man falls, and doubts at
When the man lies black, and doubts at
When the path lies black, and doubts attack. And the heart within cries. "Turn thee
And hear her within cries. Turn them back,
"Then a prayer for the man that's tired!"
Here's a hope to the man that's worm,
Worn, and far from the man's end, With the weary weight of a burden borne For a life and a love and a friend.
When the day is long, and the way is long.
And the shoulder shrinks from the burning thong.
Here's hope to the man that's worm!
Here's a song for the man that smiles,
Smiles on the shoulder to oom ahead,
Snares on presses on the wince. With a face that shows no dread.
Since each must bear, as the others
And never a man but has his care—
Then a song for the man that smiles!
Makers of the New Congress
A rancher came up to Washington from the southwest last session to see congress at work. Delegate Rodey of New Mexico took him to one of the galleries in the lower house. They sat together for an hour. Rodey pointed out the leaders on the floor and explained what was going on. "There don't seem to be any great big men there," said the rancher: "Perhaps not," Rodey replied, "but it is a mighty good, fair, average lot of legislators." "I see," said the rancher, "plenty of tableland, but no peaks."—Collier's Weekly.

Commissioner Kerr, a British magistrate famous for his blunt speech, was hearing a case one day in which a plaintiff was seeking to recover $65 for milk supplied. The commissioner said to a milkman: "I thought every one paid for his pennyworth of milk each day it was delivered." Plaintiff: "Oh, no, they don't, your honor. I serve your honor's house with milk, and they have not paid me for two months." The commissioner: "Ah, well, you'll not supply me any more; you will be watering my milk to make up for this money you are going to lose."

Proposal to Disinter Remains of Author of "The American Flag." The little graveyard at Hunt's Point on the Westchester shore of Long Island Sound.

In this cemetery are buried many members of the Hunt and Tillou families.

The people of the Bronx who live in that vicinity are much opposed to the plan for removing the poet's bones.
Music Taught by Phone:
A pupil of a Utica cornet player who lived many miles from that city broke his leg and was unable to leave his home. The teacher determined that he would give his pupil in town his usual lessons and proceeded to transmit his musical instruction over the telephone. The experiment worked most satisfactorily, the notes of the cornets of both instructor and pupil were heard distinctly at the receiving end, and whatever verbal suggestions the professor had to make were sent, of course, just as readily over the wire.
Lifeboat Pulpit.
In one of the seamen's missions in London a pulpit has recently been installed in exact imitation of a ship. The pulpit is built of oak and is constructed exactly like the prow of a ship. The design follows the line of
the ships of the ancient Vikings. The pulpit is the gift of the commodore and officers of the flotilla of torpedo boat destroyers which are used as a school ship at Medway, England.
Potatoes Grew Above Ground
Potatoes Grew Above Ground.
It is stated that scientists have produced tomatoes and potatoes on the same stalk—potatoes in the ground and the tomatoes on the vine on top. In the garden of Mrs. F. J Ault, above Niset, Penn., where she had planted some "stray beauties," one of the vines, without any manipulation from the hands of scientists, was found hanging full of potatoes from the ground to the top, there being about a dozen of them, and they were as red as a tomato could be. The same stalk had also its full quota of potatoes in the ground.—New York Journal.
Carving 1000 Years Old Four
A remarkable piece of antique Indian carving, which must be nearly a thousand years old, was dug up in making an excavation in the center of Vancouver, B. C. The carving is o brown sandstone, and the work must have been done with a sharp piece of flint or slate. It is in two sections one being a bowl and the other a bear's head. It was found under the decayed stump of an immense cedar tree, and may have been placed there before the tree began to grow and long before Columbus had any thought of discovering America.

Z" In one of his most recent "Fables" Tom McNeal relates that a man who was never known to have a cew was seen one day going down the street whistling a tune as cheerfully as if he had the income of a price. "How does it happen," asked a mystander, "that that man never worries about anything?" "The reason is plain enough," answered a merchant who had been trying in vain for three years to collect a bill of $2.50 from the cheerful man. "That man hasn't enough credit in this town to even be able to borrow trouble."
"Several weeks ago," writes a correspondent from Elk city, "the supply of gas gave out and the people had to resort to the old methods of lighting and heating their houses. It was supposed that the gas wells had gone dry until Tuesday, when millions of cinder beetles emerged from the location of the gas mains and made for the Missouri Pacific yards where several carloads of cinders were stored. On the way the beetles stopped at the Shaffer elevator and drank a tank of gasoline and ate a keg of chemically pure salt. It transpires that the beetles have devoured all the gas mains in the city.

Value of Walking Exercise.
Men who go in for out-of-doors sports entirely ignore the physiological benefit of walking. Many of them will ride for 'miles to enjoy an hour's exercise at golf or tennis. They would acquire more robust calves, stronger lungs and fresher conditions if they would merely walk to the scene of their accustomed activity and then walk back again without touching a golf stick or a racquet.
Too Much Whisky Aboard
Sometimes it is best for a man to take his whisky without any water. The farmer living near Palmyra drank large amount of whisky a few day ago and started home. On his way he stumbled into a stream, and the whisky weighing him down so he could not get out, he was drowned in less than six inches of water.

The fact that day birds become nocturnal at migration time, uttering notes used on other occasion in the year; that they fly at a speed beyond their ordinary powers and at hights beyond their ordinary haunts, leads Dr. Catke to believe that they possess in their powers of flight and soaring some principle not employed on any other occasion and hitherto not taken into account by naturalists.

Bright's Disease Cured.
Whitehall, Ill., Dec. 7.—A case has been recorded in this place recently, which upsets the theory of many physicians that Bright's Disease is incurable. It is the case of Mr. Lon Manley, whom the doctors told that he could never recover. Mr. Manley tells the story of his case and how he was cured in this way:
"I began using Dodd's Kidney Pills after the doctors had given me up. For four or five years I had Kidney, Stomach and Liver Troubles; I was a general wreck and at times I would get down with my back so bad that I could not turn myself in bed for three or four days at a time.
"I had several doctors and at last they told me I had Bright's Disease, and that I could never get well. I commenced to use Dodd's Kidney Pills and I am now able to do all my work and am all right. I most heartily recommend Dodd's Kidney Pills and am very thankful for the cure they worked in my case. They saved my life after the doctors had given me up."

RECORD RUN TO KANSAS CITY.
Wabash Train Makes Trip in Five Hours and Fifty Minutes.
Wabash train No. 9, fast mail between St. Louis and Kansas City, made a record-breaking run from St. Louis to Kansas City Sunday afternoon.
The schedule time for starting is 2:20 p. m., and the regular time for the run is seven hours and ten minutes. No. 9 started one hour late, lost twenty minutes on the way and pulled into Kansas City on time, making the run in five hours and fifty minutes, five minutes faster than any previous record.
There was a full equipment of a mail car, combination car, chair car and diner. At many places along the route the train showed a speed of seventy miles an hour, and between Mexico and Montgomery City a mile a minute was reeled off. The distance is twenty-four miles, and it took just twenty-four minutes to make the trip.
The train was in charge of Conductor J. S. Gould. The engineer was George Nelson and the fireman was Charles Summerville—St. Louis Republic.

ABOUT FEAR
Often Comes From Lack of Right Food.
Napoleon said that the best fed soldiers were his best soldiers, for fear and nervousness come quickly when the stomach is not nourished. Nervous fear is a sure sign that the body is not supplied with the right food.
A Connecticut lady says: "For many years I had been a sufferer from digestion and heart trouble and in almost constant fear of sudden death, the most acute suffering possible. Dieting brought on weakness, emaciation and nervous exhaustion and I was a complete wreck physically and almost a wreck mentally.
"I tried many foods, but could not avoid the terrible nausea followed by vomiting that came after eating until I tried Grape-Nuts. This food agreed with my palate and stomach from the start. This was about a year ago. Steadily and surely a change from sickness to health came until now I have no symptoms of dyspepsia and can walk 10 miles a day without being greatly fatigued. I have not taken a drop of medicine since I began the use of Grape-Nuts and people say I look many years younger than I really am.
"My poor old sick body has been made over and I feel as though my head had been too. Life is worth living now and I expect to enjoy it for many years to come if I can keep away from bad foods and have Grape-Nuts." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

Three Deaths and Twelve New Cases
Yesterday — Whole Families Are
Sick—Several Cases of Fever Have
Appeared at Greece City, Ten
Miles Above Butler.
BUTLER, PA.—(Special.) The fever situation seems more discouraging in Butler than it has been during the past four or five days. Three deaths occurred and twelve new cases were reported. A new feature in the fever situation and one which is causing great alarm among those who have knowledge of it, is the report that there are four or five cases of typhoid fever at Greece City, ten miles north of Butler, on that branch of the creek on which the Boydston dam is located. The state board of health officers will investigate and if there is any possibility of future pollution from this source, the danger will be promptly removed and heroic methods will be used if necessary. The Thorn Run dam, which now supplies the city, is on a different branch of the creek and will not be affected by Greece City cases.
Dr. Salom Hellman, the supreme medical examiner of the Protected Home Circle, has issued his report concerning the fever cases here. The Protected Home Circle has 300 members in Butler, and a number of them are fever victims. Dr. Hellman does not hesitate to announce that the conditions are deplorable, that he is firm in the belief that the infection has not reached its worst stage. Butler's only hope, he says, lies in a complete dis infection. Burgess William Kennedy has issued a general appeal to the American public for aid. He wants $100,000

more to stamp out the epidemic and earnestly urges the support of the people of the United States. The burges has issued this appeal after holding the matter under advisement for several days. The letter is addressed to the American public and reads: "In justice to all, in behalf of the borough government and the entire people of Butler, I beg leave to state so far we have been able to help our people without a general call for outside aid. We contributed $8,000 to the relief fund and outside cities raised this amount to $16,000. We have been carefully using this since November 10. Now we are forced to admit our funds are getting low.
"We are now thoroughly organized and working together as a committee and as a people perfectly in harmony, sympathy and kindness as a single individual, doing all in our power to relieve the suffering and needy ones in our community. We will be able to give to the public an accurate account of all money received and expended. "It is stated that it will take $100.000 to carry us through this siege of disease. We cannot raise it. Necessity compels us to issue a general appeal for outside aid and assistance. We want the public to realize that we all have been and are doing our very best, giving time and money where needed. But we feel we have exhausted our supplies in every way and many precious lives may still be sacrificed if outside aid is not furnished us.
If every man could profit by his own mistakes we should all be rich.
"Grafting" in Denmark.
COPENHAGEN. — (Special). The lower house of the Danish parliament Wednesday agreed to increase the payment of members from $1.62 to about $2.70 per day, with the travelling expenses to and from the capital. With the view, however, of discouraging an over prolongation of the session the increase of pay will only be given for the first six months of the session. Thereafter the payment of members will revert ti the present remuneration. $1.62. 3
Slain by a Gambler.
ENID, O. T.—(Special.) Herman Kersting, proprietor of the Bank Exchange saloon, at this place, was shot and instantly killed Wednesday by Tom Wood, a gambler. Kersting and Wood had an alteration over the changing of money, and before Wood could be stopped he had shot Kersting four times. After the shooting, Ward surrendered himself to a deputy sheriff. Kersting was not a man who sought trouble. He was 35 years old,
NEW IRRIGATION LAW.
Secretary Hitchcock Reports That If Fills the Bill.
WASHINGTON.—(Special.) Secretary Hitchcock transmitted to the house Wednesday a report of the reclamation service, showing the work done and in progress toward reclaiming arid lands during "the season of 1803." The secretary says: "The director has stated that a practical application of the provisions of the law during the one and one-half years of its existence has shown them effective, and that, so far as can be foreseen at the present time, no further legislation is required, the present law having been found to be of such scope as to accomplish its purpose of reclamation."
The report shows that while examinations and surveys have been made in all sections of the arid region, Nevada is the only state where actual construction has begun, and Arizona the only territory. In other states and territories plans and specifications are in various stages of progress and the work is being pushed. Criticism has arisen in some quarters because the law is not sufficiently elastic to authorize various small projects of individual interests and to permit a more general distribution of funds through out certain states. What appears to be the slow progress of the work is also stated to be a matter of criticism. The irrigation fund, accumulated from the sale of public lands in the thirteen states and three territories to which the irrigation act applies, now amounts to a total of $16,191,836. This fund has been accumulating in the treasury since 1901.
The question of drilling artesian wells has been one of considerable moment in view of the fact that many persons have importured for such work simply, says the report, to develop the mineral resources beneath the surface. A ruling precluding such experiments has been made on the ground that information possessed by the geological survey on the subject does not warrant the expenditure of

the irrigation fund for that purpose. Large areas of the public lands have been withdrawn from entry under the act pending further developments. Contracts have been let for three sections of the work on the Trukeean canal in Nevada and also on the Salt river dam in Arizona. The policy has been, the report says, to divide the work into small units so as to engage a large number of contractors and encourage competition.
"Bad Man!" Laid Low.
LAWTON, O. T.—(Special.) James Harbelt was killed Wednesday night at Siboney, on the Frisco, in Kiowa county. Harbelt was "shooting up the town," when a farmer named Donahue shot him. He had been a "bad man" in the Indian country for several years. He was a member of the gang that held up the train at Canadian, Tex., killed a deputy sheriff an robbed the express company of $75,000. He was sentenced to ninety-nine years in the penitentiary. Afterward he got a new trial and was acquitted.
Grief May Kill Her.
OKLAHOMA CITY, O. T.—(Special.) Oscar Leverich was arraigned before Judge Harper in probate court Wednesday for killing of Oscar Smith at the Smith home Sunday. He asked permission to plead next Monday and the request was granted. The wife of Leverich, now living at the Smith home, and who is a consumptive, is said to be declining rapidly on account of the shock caused by the death of her brother.
Pensions for Workingmen
KNOXVILLE, TENN. — (Special.) The Tennessee state labor convention, in session here Wednesday, passed a resolution asking congress to pass a law granting a pension of $12 a month to every working man who shall have reached the age of 60 years and have earned less than $1,000 per year. The law is to be modeled along the lines of the New Zealand pension law for laborers.

BRIEF BITS OF NEWS.
Attorney General Crow is the
Mir. Whidbey
"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM: I heartily recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as a Tuteonic Tonic and Regulator. I suffered for four years with irregularities and Uterine troubles. No one but those who have experienced this dreadful agony can form any idea of the physical and mental misery those endure who are thus afflicted. Your Vegetable Compound cured me within three months. I was fully restored to health and strength, and now my periods are regular and painless. What a blessing it is to be able to obtain such a remedy when so many doctors fail to help you. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is better than any doctor or medicine I ever had. Very truly yours, Miss Easy WHITTAKER, 604 39th St., W.Savannah, Ga."
No physician in the world has had such a training or such an amount of information at hand to assist in the treatment of all kinds of female ills as Mrs. Pinkham. In her office at Lymn, Mass., she is able to do more for the ailing women of America than the family physician. Any woman, therefore, is responsible for her own trouble who will not take the pains to write to Mrs. Pinkham for advice. Her address is Lymn, Mass., and her advice is free.
A letter from another woman showing what was accomplished in her case by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
The testimonials which we are constantly publishing from grateful women prove beyond a doubt the power of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound to conquer female diseases.
$5000 FORFEIT if we cannot forthwith produce the original letters and signatures of above testimonials, which will prove their absolute legitimacy. Lydia E. Pinkham Med, Co., Lynn, Mass.

"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM: I am so grateful to you for the help Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has given me that I deem it but a small return to write you an expression of my experience.
"Many years suffering with weakness, inflammation, and a broken down system, made me more anxious to die than live, but Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound soon restored my lost strength. Taking the medicine only two weeks produced a radical change, and two months restored my recovery. I am awed by changed women, and my friend wonder at the change, it is so marvellous.
