That Cantankerous Old Wo-


Described in the nursery ballad, who
lived upon nothing but victuals and
drink" and yet would never be quiet -
was undoubtedly troubled with chronic
indigestion. Her victuals, like those OF
many other elderly persons whose di-
Eestive powers have become impaired,
didn't agree with her. This was before
the era of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
or some one of her numerous friends
and relatives would undoubtedly have
her to try the great specific for dyspep-
STA, constipation and billiousness. This
would have been q measure of self-pro-
lection on their part, for she would
soon have been cured and ceased to
disturb them with her clamor The
most obstinate cases of Indigestion, with
its attendant heartburn, hatulenee, con-
slant uneasiness of the stomach and oil
the nerves, are completely overcome
by this sovereign remedy. Chills and
fever and bilious remittent, rheumatism
and kidney troubles are also relieved
by It.

The ma1n ARGUMENT i'm favor

The main argument in favor of
artificial ice is its purity. Another
argument, almost equally as great,
is its cheapness. 1t has been prov
cd that it can be manufactured in
in large quantities at a less rate
than to gather and store the natural
article. Southern cities claim they
can be supplied cheaper than their
sister cities in the North, who use
the old fashioned article.

THEY.WERE rERozE QUIZ.

How the Cattle RaIsers OF the West We're
Compelled 60 Submit to the Terms Of
f-red by the Dressed Beef "Combine."
KANSAS CRY, Sept 1o.-The Senate COM
mittee investigating the dressed beef ques-
tion began its session Monday morning at
the Midland Hotel. George w. Click, ex-
Governor of Kansas, and Charles burst, OF
Atchison were the only witnesses exam
ined during the forenoon. Mr.. Click said
he had been In the cattle raising business
for thirty years, during which time prices
had deteriorated thirty to forty per cent.
He claimed that this was due to the estab-
lishinent at Kansas City Of q great packing
interest which had developed great compe-
tition among sellers OF cattle, and after
wards combination among packers, which
was so powerful that its members could buy
cattle AZ their own prices. sH te
He then related his own experience in at
tempting TO sell cattle at better prices than
those fixed by the combine concluding
with the statement that after shipping cat
tie TO Chicago he was compelled TO sell at
combine" prices. He also stated that the
butcher business at Atchison was being
ruined by the combination, until the City
Council passed and enforced city ordi-
nance requiring the inspection Of beef on
the hoof tf p.
Charles burst, butcher, Of Atchison,
testified that the impression existed among
his business acquaintances that there is
combination among packers to control the
prices of dressed beef and cattle.
John Roe, Michael Lynch and Matthew
Spann, Of Saline County, all stock feeders
Of long experience, testified TO the great
depreciation in prices Of cattle and attrib-
uted It to a lack Of competition caused by a
combination Of the packersto determine the
price to be paid. James Banks, who sells
his cattle on the Chicago market, testified
that his commission man told him in conf
dence that the "Big Four" controlled the
prices, but dared not give the commission
mans name for fear the Chicago packers
would boycott him and ruin his business.
James Hap, Of Kansas City, said he oper-
ated on the Kansas City market. He testi-
fed that he had received q warning not TO
buy too many cattle. He had not needed 1t
and was forced TO sell his next lot Of cattle
at loss Of $500. The combine then wanted
to know II he had had enough. He told
them he thought he had. A. J. Morris, Of
the packing firm Of Morris, Butts & Co, ad-
mitted that his customers had received
threatening letters from one Of the packers
| in the combine. His own firm had received
threatening letters, but they did not
frighten him.
