effect upon the traffic claimed by the

nearer accomplishing what prohibition

the defeat of the prohibitory amend

setting up of high license in its stead, it
cannot be denied by anybody that the
two points quoted above constitute IN

BIGGEST MAN IN THE STATE.

From the Lawrence Journal.
There are those who claim that the
university man Is good for nothing IN
practical way. We call attention to
Bion S. Hutchins, graduate of the state
university, secretary of the state central
committee and assistant coal,oil inspector,
who finds time, notwithstanding the ex-
acting duties of this highly scientific
position, to act as city editor of the
Hutchinson News and also as Wichita
correspondent of the same paper. Mr..
Hutchins seems to have the happy power
which only adopts in occultism are pop

submission or neither, as their political
bosses and railroad owners may deter

A POLITICAL SNAP.
From the Peabody Gazette.

Political weathervanes who hold seats
in the Kansas legislature never had such
a glorious opportunity as the present
resubmission agitation gives them. By
declaring ''unalterably and uncom-
promisiably" against resubmission they
can please the strongest kind Of a pro-
hibitionist, and then by admitting that
they always were in favor of a con-
stitutional convention" they can get all
the votes of the other side. Oh, it's a
great snap, whatever they really do be-

Great Britain has become alarmed at
the inadequacy of the defenses ON the
Canadian Pacific coast and proposes TO
send a military force there which shall
be paid and sustained by the Dominion
government but controlled by the i'm
perial authorities. The Dominion re-
fuses. however, to submit to any such
arrangement and insists that Canada
must control any force which it has to
maintain. The Canadians are perfectly
right in assuming this position. This
is taken as large sized straw indicating
the drift of the sentiment in the Domin-
ion touching its governmental relations.

What Was the Row About ?
Il l. LII. l. I'D,

From the Philadelphia Ledger
What this Brazilian row is about is
something of a puzzle. Nobody seems
to knew what's the matter. 1t may be
heavy taxes: it NAV be the increasing
burden of the public debt; it may be in
expanding too much money IN excess OF
the annual income: it may be discomfort
growing out of the emancipation of the
slaves; and it may be the never entirely
suppressed jealousy between Brazilian
and Portuguese officials. 1t certainly
was not tyranny or oppression.

All that now remains Of the Apostles
of Christ are in the following places:
Seven are in Rome-namely: Peter,
Philip, James the Lesser, Jude, Bar
tholomew, Matthias and Simon. Three
are in the kingdom of Naples; Matthew
at Salerno. Andrew at Amalfi and Thorn
as at Ortona. One is in Spain, James
the Greater, whose remains are at st.
Jago de Compostella. Of the body Of st.
John, the evangelist, the remaining one
of the twelve, there is no knowledge.
The evangelists Mark and Luke are also
buried in Italy, the former at Venice
and the latter at Padua. st. Paul's re-
mains are also believed to be in Italy.
Peter is, of course, buried in the church
at Rome which bears his name, as are
also Simon and Jude. James the Lesser's
remains are in the Church of the Holy

Introduction of Carria ges.

When carriages were first used in En-
gland they were called ''whirlcotes' and
were used only by the ladies. The whirl-
cote became questionable after Queen
Anne showed the fashionable ladies of
London how gracefully woman could
sit on side-saddle. Coaches were known
in England in 1880, they having been in
troduced from Germany by the Earl Of
Arundel They came into general use
among the nobility about the year 1905.
The Duke of Buckingham was the first
to ride in coach driven by six horses.
To ridicule this pomp the Earl OF Not
tirgham put eight to his. Coaches for
let and hire, like those in modern liv-
ery-stables, first became the fashion in
London in 1925. There were only twen-
ty-one Of them altogether at the princi
pal inns.-Notes and Letters.

BODILY ELECTRICITY.
A New Hampshire Woman Who Gave Out
Sparks and Snaps.

Sparks and Snaps.
DR.. R. D. Mussey, professor of sur
gerry in Dartmouth College, in the
American Journal of Medical Sciences
for January, 1888, gives an account of a
Mrs. b, married lady about thirty
years of age, residing in Grafton Coun-
ty, n. H., who gave out sparks and
snaps continuously for some thirteen
weeks, when this power was entirely
lost and did not return again. The dis
covery of this faculty was great sur
caused her some annoyance. Though
Mrs. b wore silk dress at the time
of the commencement of the phenom-
enon, this was exchanged for cotton and
flannel successfully without affecting
the result; and the manifestations were
found to be due to the lady's own per-
son, and not to the clothing or other
conditions DIR. Mussey's account is
supported by Dr..W. Hosford, the lady's
family physician.
F Phenomena of this sort, when mani
tested, do not seem to be confined to
any one portion of the human body,
though occasionally localized. A Ca
puchin friar is mentioned by DR..
Schneider, whose scalp was veritable
reservoir of electricity. Whenever he
removed his cowl a number of shining,
cracking spark" would pass from his
bald pate; and this phenomenon, which
was definite and strong while the monk
was in good health, continued percepti

CATARRH.
Catarrhal Deafness-Hay Fever-A New
Homo Treatment.

Sufferers are not generally aware that
these diseases are contagious, or that they
are due to the presence of living parasites
in the lining membrane of the nose and
eustachian tubes Microscopic research,
however, has proved this to be fact, and
the result of this discovery is that a simple
remedy has been formulated whereby
Catarrh, Hay Fever and Catarrhal Deafness
are permanently cured in from one to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.
N. B.-This treatment is not snuff or an
ointment; both have been discarded by
reputable physicians as injurious. A pamph-
