Mrs. T. C. Stanley, of Pleasant Hill, Kan.
was born with a most unfortunate malforIna-
ton of the mouth and throat. She had no
palate and no roof of the mouth. One large
cavity served for mouth, throat, nostrils and
all. She was never able to utter any intelli-
gent speech, and she had the utmost difficulty
IN eating and drinking, the food and drink
always regurgitating through the nose.
For forty years she bore this burden of life
without relief. Several eminent surgeons in
the east were consulted, but all told her that
nothing could be done for her; that her case
was hopeless.
Last August she consulted DIR. Henry Roby,
of Topeka. After.a careful study of the case,
the doctor decided TO try what could be done
for it. He carefully dissected a thick layer
of tissue from the tonsils and back part of
the throat, on each side, and stitched them
together above the root of the tongue. That
operation proved a success and made hang
ing palate for the poor woman. roof for
the mouth was next to be made. Beginning
at the border of the teeth, the tissue was
raised and set inwards and upwards and held
IN place by silver wires, and thus a ridge or
shelf was made around the upper part of the
month.
When new tissue grew into the spaces thus
made it was again raised and carried upward
and forward and held IN place as before.
Finally, after several operations, tissue
enough was secured to meet in the center
over the tongue, where it was stitched to-
gether and united, making good roof. and
palate.
The happy lady is now learning to talk,
after forty years of practical mutisns and
says there Is not money enough ia Kansas

KANSAS RAILROADS.

Hiawatha World: Almost every side
track on the Missouri Pacific is crowded
with loaded cars. The authorities are
refusing to move any freight except live
stock and perishables. The yards at
Atchison and Kanass City are block
AIDED.
Topeka Journal: The Santa Fe boil
er shops will, within a few weeks, be
running the big riveting machine and
its other engines with compressed air
instead of steam. Workmen are now
fixing up an engine for this purpose,
and when done will save lots of trouble
to the company on account that when
winter comes the steam pipes freeze and
cause more or less delay in the boiler
work. The compressed air viii overcome
this.
Kansas City Gazette: The big suit
of the Northwestern Construction com
pany against Jay Gould, the Wall street
wizard, promises to be a very interesting
legal contest. The company sues for
1926, 600 as damages for Gould failing
to comply with certain contract. Judge
Anderson yesterday gave the Missouri
Pacific Railway company thirty days by
stipulation to make answer to the pro-
ceedings brought against that company
to garnishee Gould's interest in that
company.
Topeka Capital: George II. Price,
the Santa Fe electrician, is equipPing
the st. Joseph passenger train with
storage battery for the purpose of light
ing the train with electricity. If it
proves to be a success, the Denver and
California trains will be equipped with
the light. They have been using the
storage battery lamps In the shops for
the last five months, and it has proven
beyond a doubt that a better light can
be given from the storage battery than
coming direct from the dynamo. The
Santa Fe had at one time electric
lights on the vestibule trains running
out OF Chicago, but it proved to be a
failure because every time the engine
was detached from the train the lights
would 20 out, and If one of the can
was taken out at any point along the
line. the connection would have to BIZ

STOCK AND FARM.

Concordia Empire: Frank Wilson, of
Lyon township, ex-county commissioner,
is wintering 1,4OO head of cattle, and is
feeding 200 that are now ready for the
market.
Bird City News: If spring opens up
as early as usual, there will be an i'm
mense acreage of wheat sown in Chey-
enne county. The ''oldest inhabitant''
never saw a winter when there was so
much snow, and it is doing lots of good
too.
Norcatur Register: Some of the
farmers have finished husking and 9th
ers are nearly done. Jacob Brooks,
McKenna and Squire Leichliter each
claim 1000 bushels. G. R. Pease has
two thousand. Have not heard from
others.
Dighton Journal: Quite number of
hogs have been fatted this year on bar
ley, and if it proves as good a crop an
other year as it did last there viii be a
demand for hogs to feed. There is no
reason why they cannot be made ready
for market as cheaply on barley as corn,
and the meat is Just as good.
From Glen Elder: The officers of
the Bank of Glen Elder are extensive
farmers as well as public-spirited bust
ness men and citizens. They have fin
ished threshing and husking and find
they have 1900 bushels of wheat,
1900 bushels of oats, and 5000 bushels
of corn. They also have sown $50 acres
of winter wheat.
Independence Star and Kansan: Mart
Mangan, of Cherry township, says he
has forty acres of timothy and clover
that he has mown for several years, and
that last year it yielded two tons per
acre. He permits his stock to run on it
all winter, removing them about the LIST
of May. Mr.. Mangan is one of our sue
cessful stock-saisers
Dighton Journal: There is Charles
Eggert, who came here in 1887 and has
pulled against the stream during the
four years of hard times, but he gained
little each year. He started with a
span of old mares and three COWS. He
now has fifteen head of horses and
thirty-five head of cattle, and last fall
he threshed 1000 bushels of wheat, 20O
of barley, 200 of rye, raised 500 bushels
of corn and some oats. In this time he
has secured 800 acres of land, all clear
which is a-legacy that poor man need
not be ashamed of.

PuTsBURe, February 5.-WOOds Run car
No. l, of the Manchester line, having on
board thirteen of the new employees of the
company; was wrecked on Beaver avenue at
cartridge, which had been placed on the
track. Not one person was badly hurt.
When the explosion came the car was lifted
bodily from the track and smashed. Several
of the men were cut by flying glass Many
persons were thrown from their beds by the
force of the explosion. One of the striking
conductors, who was seen by a reporter, said
that he had heard two of the striking conduc-
tors threaten that they would put dynamite
upon the track. He also said that some days
ago two of the sO-called sympathizers asked
him TO take hand IN plot to do up PIesi-
dent Dalzen and General Manager Green
wood, of the company. great crowd soon
collected at the scene of the explosion and
the general sentiment seemed TO be that the
men who had committed the deed had waited
until the car was well loaded with hated

Topeka Capital: The Young Mems
Christian association received permits
sion from the pastors of the city to al
low representatives to place before their
congregations the objects and aim of
the association. 1t took twenty-five
young men to attend that number of
the principal churches, and the cordial
ity with which their talks were received
is very gratifying to the boys. Several
of the ministers preached especial SER
mons to suit the occasion. The associa-
ton appears not only to be regaining
all its old friends but making many new
ones, and the modest request they are
making of the citizens has every indica-
ton Of success.
A Kansas City, KS, news item says;
Professor L. L. Hanks and the chemis-
try class from the high school made a
trip to Argentine and were shown
through the smelter. The visit was
made for the purpose of witnessing the
practical chemical tests made in handling
the ore. The company furnished them
1. K. Thurman for a guide and he
showed the visitors every process to
which the ores are subjected in the
smelter, starting them in at the place
where the ore is crushed and following
it closely until it is refined. The visit
was pleasant one and all were delighted
with it. It gave the members of the
class many new ideas of practical chem.
istry that will be of value to them in
their studies.

Tuehman and Jookheok.

TOPEKA, February 6.-The supreme court
has denied the application for a rehearing in
the case of Bernard Tuehman and Carl Jock
heck.
Both men will be remembered as original
package dealers. Both were convicted in the
district court of Shawnee county of selling
liquor in violation of the prohibitory law.
Judge Guthrie sentenced both men to terms
in the county jail and to pay fines and costs
amounting to several hundred dollars.
Their cases were Immediately appealed to
the state supreme court and hearing was
had. Last November that court handed down
decisions affirming the judgment of the dis
trict court.
Their attorney, David Overmyer, immedi-
ately made application for rehearing of the
cases and the application has been pending
since that time.
Both Tuchman and Joekheck are under
heavy bonds. The last resource has now
been exhausted, and there is little doubt but
that steps will be taken to secure the enforce
ment of the sentence of the court.

SILVER.
The Director of the Mint Gives
HIS Ideas.
Danger and Advantages OF Freer
Uses OF Silver DIsoussed-Now
Buying More Silver Monthly Than
This Country Produces.

"Asznsoroz. D. c., February 5.-The house
committee On coinage, weights and measures
examined Director Leech, of the mint, on
me SILVER question Mr.. Leech said his min
mum estimate Of the production of silver in
me United States during the last year was
SesoOoooo ounces, but the official estimate
would probably exceed that amount He
said dedncting the amount used in the arts
and sciences, the American product would be
less than the government purchases The
amount Of currency in circulation in the
United States. he said, was $3.50 per capita
This Is larger than in any country except
France.
Mr.. Stone asked. SIS there, in your judg-
ment any lack of circulating medium in this
Mr.. Leech replied: '.No. sir. The New
YORK banks hold about So, 600, 600 of idle
money, over and above their reserve"
Mr.. Williams inquired why Mr.. Leeeh
thought the silver coins of other countries
would g dumped here if We adopted free
coinage2
Mr.. Leech: st think European silver
would come here in ship loads just as fast as
u could be brought in think the Bank Of
France would send large part of its $685.
UOO,OOo OF silver here. Belgium would do the
same"
Mr.. Leech admitted it was a matter of
opinion and of conjecture, but, in his judg-
ment, free silver coinage would either send
gold abroad or to a premium.
Mr.. Bland: ''Have we got enough gold to
buy a ship load of silver?'
Mr.. Leech. eve think we have enough to
buy the worlds stock"
Being asked whether the United States had
any agent abroad to learn the sentiment on
bi-metalism in Europe, Mr.. Leech's reply
was: I'VE had requested certain gentlemen
who were gong to travel in Europe, and who
had social and financial standing enabling
them to talk with public officers and finan-
siers, to learn the probabilities of some inter
national agreement being secured Several
letters have been received from them and
laid before the president within he last few
months England had shown disposition
10 act favorably. He (Leech) would regard
an international agreement es a great benefit

aide-de-camp to General Miles, has returned
from an extensive tripin the Indian territory,
where he investigated the ruinors of ghost
dancing among the Indians. THE Arapa-
hoe, Cheyenne and Usage Indians still cling
to the belief that the Messiah will some day
appear to save them," said Captain Higgins
'1and they are not at all disappointed in the
failure of the Messiah to come among them
last year. They did not pretend to know the
date of his coming. The former frenzy
among them and their excited dances have
given way to a quiet belief, which has almost
become a religion with them, that the whites
are to be destroyed and the Messiah will
come. There is no excitement among the
whites who live on land bordering reserva-
tons. because no outbreak is feared.
