In one place you see desolation, in another abundance. Then I thought of the governor of thisstate and the infamy of the legis- lature just adjourned, who, in the politics to dominate their action and withheld the aid from the stricken valley that the people were not only able but willing to extend. } there is not a better manin the state] killed “Tt makes me feel ashamed to think Iam a citizen of this great state. There is no politics in this utterance, but I am simply applying religion to the offices of men. I should think the governor of Kansas and the mem- bers of the legislature, whose conduct cannot be described without depart- ing from religious language, would feel like hiding their faces, not only from God’s sunshine, but from the gaze of their fellow man.” Mr. McHale preached upon the “Handwriting on the Wall.” He drew a prophetic comparison of Belshazzar and his thousand lords and Governor Bailey and his 125 representatives and forty senators, derks and doorkeepers, * predicting that as woe befell the Babylonian king ignoring the handwriting, so it would come to the present state ad- ministration. SCORES DIE IN A WRECK, rain Derailed in Spain-- Ninety Re- ported Killed. Madrid, June 29.—An_ official report says that thirty persons were and sixty injured = in the wreck of the Bilboa train, which overturned at Nejerilla river last night. Fourteen dead bodies and fifty injured persons have already been taken from the wreck It is believed that out of the 300 passengers that only six escaped injury. The train, which was composed of two engines and sixteen conches, was verossing the bridge when thecoupling between the engines broke, causing the second engine to leave the track and fall, followed by the entire train, into the bed of the river, a distance of fifty feet, piling coaches and engine all in @ mass. Persons who were not so badly in- jured went to the nearest station, a mile anda half, to obtain medical attendance until aidcould be obtain- ed from Bilboa. A railway guard was found in the act of robbing the dead. He narrowly escaped lynching. The latest dispatches estimate the loss of life at ninety and the number of injured at 100. Dixon Held For the Death of Farmer. Parsons, Kan., June 26,—The coroner’s jury which investigated the killing of Wm. Farmer by Judd Di-. on of Butler, Mo., returned a verdict charging Dixon with a felony this afternoon. Farmer and Dixon en- gagedina fight over accounts at Matthewson, east of here. Dixon claims, and most of the evidence cor- roborates his statements, that Far- mer struck him with a neckyoke of a wagon; he ran and Farmer overhaul ed him and assaulted him the second time with the neckyoke, when Dixou shot him through the heart. Dixon was bound over to the district court for trial on the coroner’s verdict. Fendists Are in Action. Jackson, Ky., June 29.—Hiram and John Henry fight near here c@@eith some men and women.

The man who feels half sick is all sick.

It restores strength by enabling the perfect digestion and as- similation of food. It makes half sick people all well.

Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. ASYLUM NO. 4. Missouri's Fourth Insane Asylom Built On New Lines, St. Joseph Press. R. M. Abercrombie returned yester- day from Farmington, Mo., where the state’s model asylum for the in- sane is being prepared The con- tracts are being let for the erection ofthe administration building and the St. Jeseph firm way do thestone work, “That Farmington institution will be a model one when they get itcom- pleted,” said Mr. Abercrombie to-day. “Instead of putting all the patients in one huge building, as is done at Asylum No. 2, located bere, and at Nos, 1 and 3, a score or more of cot- tages will be erected for the insane, “About sixty patients are placed ineach cottage. This allows aclassi- tication of them. The plan is to build a little town for these people It will take fifteen or twenty yearsto carry out the echeme and the expen- ditures wijl amount to $1,500,000 or $2,000,000. “Six or eeven cottages are finished now. The second stories are the dormitiores, while the ground floor is the day room. Each building will be connected with the main dining room with a corridor. Thus the patients will not be exposed to the elements during bad weather. “While this plan is more costly than the old one, ft is far more hu mane. Where the patients are coop- ed up in one big building, they are compelled to go up and down three or four or five flights of iron stairs several times each day. This not only is annoying to the patients, but also snbjeets them-to constant dan- ger. “Again all classes of insane are thrown together. Those suffering trom mild cases cannot be isolated trom those who are violent. And there is no relief from the monotony of the pacing up and down one cor- ridor. “When the Farmington institution is completed room will have been provided for 1,800 to 2,000 pa- tiente. It was opened for the recep- tion of patients January 1st, 1903 ” “s1s133nup [ye 00°71; “208 “jeoh mon sa alike pena SthGee “gaan 2.52008 “SUPYPo B JO JY St UOTE sy ‘seATaU 9y} 03 se ‘sanssi) 94) 0} ySuaIs wou Zurai3 jo ‘anadde guy -40)891 JO JayeW ayy ut jaf puy “uonuynU yaped 103 Ayeoneyd “Wa O8 Spuvys 31 asnvD9q poo; B what was said, and all soon began| tse shi ting.

Appeal, Artist Montrose, the famoussaddle stallion, died at the Paris fairgrounds last Friday afternoon, He was sick about twenty-four hours, acute in- digestion being assigned as thecause. Heroic efforts were made to save him but in vain. A post mortem ex- amination was held after his death, revealing the fact that his stomach was clogged with food ag dry as though there had not been a particle of moisture in his system, Artist was bred in Kentucky and foaled in St. Clair county, Mo., 20 years ago. He was probably the peer of any show stallion in Missouri, having won first premium at the St. Louis fair in 1888 and carried off first prize in the sweepstakes ring at the World’s Fair in 1893. Col. Jeff Bridgford was mounted upon Artist when he, too, won distinction as the world’s champion rider. The old stallion was bought last spring by a Paris company, the purchase price being $1,000. During the season he had served 69 mares and many oth- ers had been booked. The company will lose very little, if anything at all financially, though the death of such a stallion is a serious loss to the stock interests of the county. Ten years ago Artist made part of the season at Paris. Thirteen of his colts sold for an average of $844 each. This time an exceptionally fine class of mares were bred to him and some fine individuals are expect- ed to result. Banker Spends $1000 Searching For His Son. Guthrie, Okla., June 28.—J. C.
