Newngrny, Casbier, Nearly Starved Beneath House. Chicago, Ill, July 81.—On the verge of death from starvation, Emma Neisler, 14 years old, has been found, after figuring in one of the most remarkable disappearancesever reported to the police, For three weeks the girl has lain hidden under her home at 501 Hastings street, supplied with food by an 8-year-old sister. Meantime the whole police force of Chicago was searching for her. She was only found after she had become nearly crazed by thirst, and had pricked a hole in the lead the water supply ia the house. When the plumber called to dis cover the leakage he found the girl lying under the house, pale and weak from her imprisonment and lack of sufficient food. Back of the girl’s mysterious dis- appearance lies a story of her arrest tf ona charge of disorderly conduct, which, it is said, was fullowed by a father, August Neisler. Fear of fur- ther punishment caused the girl to flee, although the mother and father were grieving over the missing daughter, thinking that she had kill- ed herself. ; Hot Weather Weakness. If you feel fagged out, listless and lacking iu energy, you are perhapr suffering from the debilitating effect+ of summer weather. These symp- toms indicate that a tonic is needed that will create a healthy appetite, make digestion perfect, regulate the bowels and impart natural activity to the liver. This, Herbine will do; itis a tonic, laxative and restora- tive. H.J. Freegard, Propr. Grand View Hotel, Cheney, Kan., writes: ‘1 have used Herbine for the last 12 years, and nothing on earth can beat it. It was recommended to me by Dr. Newton, Newton, Kan.” 50c at H. L. Tucker’s Drug Store. Revolution Breaks Ont in Santiago. Havana, July 30.—Reports of an anti-government uprising in Santia go province have been confirmed. More than 100 well equipped men are in the woods of the province. A regiment of rural guaids has been ordered to the scene of trouble. Pres- ident Palma says the situation is aot asserious as reported, but the govern- ment is anxious, fearing the move- ment may grow. United States Min- ister Squires is actively tracing the rumors so to make a report to the state department at Washington. General Rodmgnez, commanding the army of Cuba, has issued orders that woods be searched for insurgents, A Kansas City Man Shot.

Metcalf, Pea- sion Agent at Topeka. Topeka, July 31.—Wilder S. Met ealf, United States pension agent for the Kansas, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Indian territory and Colorado district, has compiled his annual report. The number of pen- sioners in the district decreased by 226 during the fiscal year, which end- ed June 30. There are now on the list 115 629 pensioners. During the year the Topeka office paid out in pensions the sum of $15,851,710.2°. This is $54,000 more than was paid out by the Topeka office during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1902. It has been the boast of Kansas old soldiers that this is the old sol- dier state of the Union, but the an- nual report of the department shows that Missouri leads the district in the number of pensioners and that it has 11,000 more persons on the roll than Kansas. During the year the number of Missouri pension claims paid was 50,114 and the amount of money distributed in that state was $6,835,230 82. Kansas has 89,074 pensioners, and during the year they received the sum of $5,445,430.63. The 7,972 pensioners in Oklahoma received $1,090,846.47. Theremain- ing pensioners in the district are divided among Colorado, New Mexico and the Indian territory. The total number of pensioners on the rolls of the Topeka office at the beginning of the year was 115,855 The number of names added to the roll during the year was 5,946, and the loss by death was 6,172. The number of pensioners of the war of 1812 has decreased from sixty-nine to fifty-nine. All of them are wid- ows. There was a loss in thenumber of pensioners of the Mexican war. At the beginning of the year there were 1,924 of these pensioners. Congress enacted a law which provided for the payment of a monthly pension to every survivor of this war. Sixty pensioners were added under this law. The loss during the year was 180. $100 Reward $100.

Starnes Shot in the Leg and Captured. Kansas City, July 31—Ben W. Starnes, the one armed life prisoner, who escaped in a daring manner on Saturday night last from the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kan., was captured early to day near Rich- mond, Mo., after being shot in the leg by one of a posse that had been chasing him for several days, Star- nes’ leg was broken by the shot, and he surreundered without resistance, although he was well armed. He was returned to prison to-day. It has been a long time since offi- cials of the United States peniten tiary at Fort Leavenworth have in- stituted so vigorous a search for an escaped convict. This is because Starnes was recognized as a par- ticularly bad man. He was serving 4 life sentence for roobing 4 train in the Indian Territory. Previous to coming to the Fort Leavenworth prison he escaped from the state penitentiaries of Colorado and Ten- nessee, He has never failed toescape from prison where he had been sent for crime. His escape from Fort Leavenworth is regarded as the clev- erest and most daring in the history of that institution. Race War Sure, Says Tillman. Moline, Ill., July 31,—Senator Till- man and Senator Burton, of Kansas, debated the negro question here last night. Tillman said a race war was bound to come. “God made a negro inferior toa white man,” he said, “and he shall never govern us. You wouldn't let him, and we will see him in hell before we will permit it “When you hold sacred the fif- teenth amendment, that says the races are equal, you add fuel toa race war that is bound tocome. I do not believe in lynching for any crime but one, When a negro at- tacks @ white woman the only thing to dois to hunt him down and put him out of his miserable existence. We are doing this, and we are going to keep on doing it. If you don’t like it you can lump it,” A Fast Cure For Dropsy. Carthage, Mo , July 2¥.— Believing that he can overcome disease there- by, J. M. Byrd of Webb City is ab- staining from food and has fasted twenty-sixdays Byrd declares that he will eat nothing until forty-six days are ended. He has suffered for several years from dropsy, the dis- ease failing to yield to treatment. Thirteen Spoons For $24,500. London, July 18 —Thirteen silver apostle spoons with figures of Christ and the twelve apostles upou them were auctioned at London to-day. They brought the record price of $24,500. The spoons were dated 1536 and constitute the earliest com- plete set known. The bidding was spirited. State University Boarding Clubs. The Forty first General Assembly appropriated $35,000 for a girl’s dormitory at the State University at Columbia. This building has just been completed and will be ready for occupancy September Ist, 1903. The men have had dormitories for sever- al years. Miss Mary Elizabeth Lewis has been chosen of the Women’s Board- ing Club, while Mrs. Watkins will have charge of the Men’s Dormitory. Miss Lewis is a graduate of Welles- ley College and has done two years of graduate study at the University of Chicago.

Kaneas City, Mo., July 25.—The typhoid situation in Kansas City is becoming serious, principally as a result of the flood. There are sixty- . | nine cases in the five leading hospi- tals, and it is estimated that the ag- gregate number of cases in town is 802. More than twenty have occurred within a few days and a dozen of the hospital patients cannot live. In almost every case the doctors are of the opinion that the typhoid fever ie THE BRADFIELD REGULATOR CO., Atieata, Gs. | due to drinking infected water. | STILL GREATER COMBINES. | Judge Knapp Speaks of the Future j Developments of the Trust Movement. At the Arkwright club annual din- ner at New York city the other night Judge Martin I, Knapp, chairman of the interstate commerce commission, speaking on trusts, said: “The truth is that new conditions have arisen and new methods must be adopted. To- day the great enterprises of the world are in the hands of corporations, and the time is fast approaching when they will absorb all important under- takings. “The legitimate—the inevitable— offspring of corporations is monopoly. Why? Simply because the operation of these massive forces, infringing and grinding upon each other in every market, begets an extremity of mu- tual danger which always invites and often compels a common agreement as to prices and production. “We are entering upon a period of great transition; a period of difficulty and many dangers. The whole struc- ture of industry and social life is liable to be subjected to a strain—possibly to a shock—for which exjsrience fur- nishes no guiding precedent, Can we raise this wide realm of industry from selfishness to charity, from strife to friendship, from competition to coop- eration, from the warring instincts of the savage state to the larger and no- bler needs of associated life? This is the problem which will test the wis- dom of statesmanship and tax the resources of public authority.” A MONEY ORDER NUISANCE. Peculiar Mania of Man Who Senda Small Amounts to Noted Individuals, A man ‘who calls himself Sam San- ders, and is reported to reside in Lexington, Miss,, has been flooding the post office at Albany, N. Y., with money orders for five cents and up- ward, made payable to President Roosevelt, Senator Platt, Senator De- pew, Senator Murphy, ex-Gov. Hill, Bird S, Coler, Richard Croker, the late President MeKinley and the late Speaker Thomas B, Reed, ‘The amount of each order was five cents, with the exception of one sent to David B, Hill, for one dollar, intended as a re- tainer in a legal case and received by Mr. Hill the other day, Hill and the other recipients ignored the or- der, The post office officials have been annoyed by this man for the past two or three years, and several months ago Postmaster Argersinger notified the postmaster at Lexington, Miss., to stop issuing money orders for such small amounts to Sanders This had the desired effect until a few days ago, when a money order sent by Sanders and issued to Bird S. Coler was received in this city from Pickens, Miss, It is believed that Sanders must have had some trouble with the au- thorities at the above-named post of- fice in Mississippi, for he journeyed to Ebenezer, Miss., about 40 miles distant from the other places men- tioned, to send the latest orders. Miss Anna Morgan Gives $1,000 to Aid Project of Mme. Eleanor Dase. Miss Anna Morgan, daughter of J. Pierpont Morgan has subscribed § 000 to the fund with which Mme, Ele- anor Duse, the Italian actress, pro- poses to build an lralian national the- ater on the shores of Lake Albino, near Rome. The ground for the the- ater, together with gardens, was re- cently donated by Count Franken- stein, a friend of the actress and a lib- eral patron of the arts, Miss Morgan's gift is part of a fund of $21,000 recently subscribed by 21 women at the Duse dinner recently given at the Italian embassy at Wash- ington. Mme. Duse has had the plan in mind for severat-years, and at the dinner she gave a brief outline to sev- eral of the guests. Miss Morgan, it is said, became interested immediately and said she would be willing to con- tribute if a check would be accept- able, Mme. Duse accepted the offer and Miss Morgan sent her a check for $1,- 000. She then placed the matter be- fore the other guests of the Italian ambassador, and 20 ladies promised to donate like amounts. CAKE WALK NOT POPULAR. The English Smart Set, It Ia Said, Do Not Take Kindly ¢o New Dances. Some of the London daily papers appear with illustrations of various cake dances, cake walks and other dances said to be popular, but no- body sees them danced at smart par- ties. The barn dance is anything but | the popular in smart houses, where the programme is limited to waltzes, polkas and lancers. Even quadrilles are out of date now, and are very seldom seen, except perhaps at serv- ants’ dances. At the same time old- fashioned country dances, such as Sir Roger de Coverley and the Cir- eassian Circle, are indulged in in the country. A Car Conductor's Politeness. A Philadelphia woman has given $1,000 to a street car conductor who was polite to her. The probabilities, says the Chicago Record-Herald, are that ‘she wasn't carrying a baby or a market basket when she got aboard. An Ineorable Disease. Peary thinks’ of trying again to reach the north pole.
