was returning home, he said, he began
to feel the medicine working IN him. 1t

of the afternoon, Weir danced about the
room and struck out with both arms like
a pugilist.

this, has it?'' inquired the doctor, still
Ineredulous.
Imagination? Look at this, - said
Weir, and suiting the action to the word
he Strengthened himself and repeatedly
kicked up with one leg after the other,
at the same time moving his arms and
body in ali directions.
From Weir's description there must
have been an affecting scene at the old
man s house when they saw the wonder
full change that had been wrou ght in
him. His wife kissed him and cried
upon his neck. Friends and neighbors
held a regular leyee.
81 haYen't felt like this he told
them, as his wife hung around his neck,
"since 1 was young man.
After detailing his experience Weir
left the doctor office to call on his rela-
tives and tell them the good news. He
felt so young, he said, that he couldn {
keep still.
Weir was undoubtedly sincere in de-
failing his experience, and the closest
questioning failed to shake his faith in
the new medicine.
OTHER CANDIDATES.
The satisfactory results obtained IN
these cases induced eight of the Eeutle-
men present to submit to the operation.
Most of them are boarders at the sWalnut
Street House, and exacted a pledge of

they did not want to be eha&sa or

injected in three spots wltha dram of the
fluid in each instance. A*the end of the
half hour they remained at the doctor $
office five said that they experienced
beneficial, pleasant effects. The otheE
three did not feel any differently. Lateg
in the evening DR.. Longfellow gave one
of his patients, woman siXty-one years
old, hypodermic injection of the tigsIs

doctor will watch her case closely.
The two men, Album ana Weir, who
received the injection just as soon as it
was possible to prepare it, are undoubtz
eddy honest in describing the wondeESM
difference made in their physical conkl1
ton. Both will be kept under treatments
SO that the doctor can note the effects ~
the medicine.
Dr. Longfellow is professor of dk4fha-
tology in the Cincinnati college of medi-
cine and surgery. His standing is a
guarantee that there is no trick about

disclosing the nature of the rem

two drains of the elixir were forced under
the skin, and then there was pause for

at his office last evening about o o'clock,
when the Enquirer reporter entered.
The physician betrayed some little APP
prehension as to the result of his after
moons experiments, and was momenta-
rily expecting to hear from his patients
Gathered in the Office were number of
friends who had heard of the trials and
were waiting TO see the results before
subjecting themselves to the same ex-
pertinent.
SHORTLY AFTER Z o CLOCK
there was light, brisk step at the front
door and the bell rang. The first patient,
the man Album. entered. His face was
wreathed with smiles as he began to de-
scribe his experience. Before he reached
home, he said, he commenced to feel
better. There was q funny feeling ali
over his body, especially in his limbs.
The stiffness in his leg began to leave
him, and by the time he had reached
home had entirely disappeared. He
walked about as lively and with as much
ease as he had twenty years ago. The
great change in his condition had made q
sensation in the neighborhood where he
lived and the people were all talking
about it. He had walked down from
Fifteenth and Central avenue. It had
been year since he had walked so far.
lie had never within memory felt so good.
The undoubtedly sincere manner in
which Album talked made great i'm
preston on the doctor and his friends,
and somewhat prepared them for the
astonishing report from the old colored
man, Weir, who arrived in a few min
utes.

KANSAS CROPS

A Mrs. E. G. Williams, of New York
City who has been visiting in Kansas.
writing to her husband, told him about
some wonderful Kansas products. In
one letter she said: 81 have seen car
rot that measures feet in length, an
ear of corn Is feet in length and four
potatoes that completely filled the bot
tom OF one horse farm truck The
Sun published the letter and pictures
OF the wonderful crops. Commenting
on the Kansas crops, the Sun says:
1T is estimated that one of these ears
or Kansas corn would furnish subsis-
tence Tor ten families for a period OF
two weeks, While one potato would
iced the same number of families fOI
two days.
Scientists say that III the long run
an ear of corn measures Just one tenth
the height of the stalk that bore it.
Upon this basis of calculation it car
not be an uncommon thing in Kansa.
to find corn stalks growing the height
of 100 feet. Taking it on the average
field OF corn standing 100 feet high would
be very ordinary sight.
1.-The people in Kansas use steam
ploughs to cultivate their fields in thu
spring, and in the fall of the year wher
they harvest their crops they must ust
portable steam saw mill to cut dowI
the stalks before they can get the corn
which must be hauled Off the field ca
by ear by double OK teams and hoisteC
| into the barn by means of steam der
rick.
''PickaXes and crowbars must be EN-
ployed in husklng it, and the grai1
must then be blown off the cob by mean
of patent dynamite process.
Giant powder might be used witt
good results in getting such potatoe
down to coOkable size, and carrot
could be prepared for the table with al
ordinary crOSS-cut saw.
AN enterprising Kansas man is re
ported to have invented a process TO
| splitting up corn stalks so that they ma
be used for railroad ties and dock bulk

ONE OF MANY.

When the congressional committee,
appointed to inquire into the dressed
beef combine, met at Chicago, last week,
Armour and other prominent packers
refused TO meet the committee. The
committee will lay the matter before
congress, and there it will dies or, per-
haps, ianother committee will be ap-
pointed. to inquire into the refusal of
the dressed meat men to testify; and
so on until congress takes q notion to
Investigate" some other monopoly or
we'll known outrage.
The republican protection papers are
uo~ outraged that Armour treated a
congressional committee so shabbily,
and these protection organs afe threat
suing the beef combine with dire pun
fsnfreut. Their threats are as sleken-
ug as the so.called invest cations

the damnable protective tariff laws that
curse this fair land.
OF course there is a beef combine
but that combine probably owns ma
jority in the United States senate. and
what will investigation amount to?
The people who rolled up eighty-two
thousand republican majority in han
sas voted in favor of protection and
monopolies, that make the rich richer,
and the poor poorer.
hNthirty-seven flags to be presented
to the republicans of Kansas for that
eighty-two thousand majority, are GER
tificates that the republicans of othei
states are also favorable to the monop
olIes that are permitted and encouraged
by the republican majority in the Uni
ted States senate.
Why should the Topeka Capital abuse
Mr.. Armour for not telling about his
legalized form of robbing the stock
raisers of Kansas? The Capital encour-
ages the Carnegles III their robbery. 1t
applauds protectionists of the east who
raised millions of dollars to elect pro.
lection administration. 1t does not
mention the robbery of the men in Kan
sas who do not sell cattle, but who pay
forty-seven cents tax on every dollars
worth they buy.
The dressed beef robbery is nothing
that the west is interested in, as com
pared with the protection robbery that
every Kansan experiences every day.
We would like to see congress able
and willing to break up all trusts and
combines; but it can not be done while
they are backed and fostered by the re
publican party. We would like to see
tariff for revenue only, but until new
administration and an honest senate
shall be elected, our wish can not bt
gratified. We would like to see the
eighty-two thousand republican ma
! jority in Kansas changed to a respect
able anti-monopoly majority but w,
do not hope for this until the farmer
and workers learn that to foste
one monopoly is to encourage them all
