Sufferers are not generally aware that

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 ore to three
simple applications made at home by the
patient once in two weeks.

Arrangements Made for Steam Plant OF
the Central Station Of Electric
Line--Work Of Electric


For some days the directory Of the Wich-
tia Electric Railway company have been
figuring on the purchase of machinery for
the power station of the new system.
They have received figures and PROPOSE
tions from number Of companies engaged
in the manufacture of that class of ma
chinery and have given the question care
full and thorough consideration. At a
meeting of the directory it was decided to
accept the bid of HooFen, Owen, RentscA-
Ter & Co, of Hamilton, Ohio, for steam
plant which alone, independent of build
ings and electric machinery, costs over fif-
teen thousand dollars. The company was
represented by its manager, Mr.. J. a. Vail,
who has been in the city some days.
The steam plant will consist of five boilers
aggregating five hundred horse power.
These will supply the Hamilton-COrliss
engine, which will have maximum ca
pacity Of four hundred and fourteen horse
power. This, as starter for the central
power station, would seem to be d good
one.
The plans for the steam plant building
will be completed in about ten DAYS. 1t Is
not known yet whether they will use brick
or stone, but the latter seems to be prefer
red. As soon as plans are ready contrac-
tors will submit bids and the work com
menced. 1t is thought that the building
Will be ready for the machinery within six
weeks or two months 1t viii probably be
two or three months before the machinery
arrives. The engine is yet in the raw ma
terial. It is most too large and the use
now so common that is kept in the ''hand-
medown' stock.
The company have about one-hundred
men employed removing and putting
down track on Topeka avenue north of
Tairteenth street The material for con-
struction of the new line is arriving slowly
but the work Will be done as rapidly as
possible
The company has decided fully to aban-
don Market street and operate the River
side and north town lines over the Water
street line from First and Main. The
track, wire and poles viii be removed this
week and the council will be free to act on
the paving question, taking into cOnsid-
Grafton the space now being occupied by
the tract. The city attorney is expected
to inform the council tomorrow night
about the legal path which will reach to
the completion of the Market street paw
ing. Some of the property owners there
seem quite anxious that the problem be
solved speedily and the street improve
