IRRIGATION MEN.
After the Convention at Salina Delegates
Proceed to Garden City.

After the Convention at Salina Delegates
Proceed to Garden City.
GARDEN CITY, Kan, Sept. 30.-The
interstate irrigation convention,
which closed its session at late hour
in Salina Thursday night, was the
busiest meeting of the kind ever held
in the west.
The Interstate Irrigation associa-
ton will hold it's next meeting in Sep
TENDER of next year a t Wichita, and in
the meantime the executive committee
will do all in it's power to advance the
cause.
The following delegates were elected
to the international convention in Los
Angeles, Cal: Judge Emery, Lawrence;
L. Baldwin, Great Bend; j. X. Wright,
Junction City; j. L. Bristow, Salina;
A. w. Stubs, Garden City; E. r.
Moses, Great Bend; d. M. Frost, Gar
den City; Mr.. Hardy and Mr.. Maxwell,
Topeka.
The Garden City is sharing the hon
ors of the irrigation movement with
Salina. At midnight over 200 delegates
accepted the kind invitation of the
Santa Fe railroad to enjoy free excur-
sion to Garden City. The excursion ar
rived at noon and was cordially well
coined by large delegation of Garden
City business men. Two hours were
spent by the delegates viewing the
work of irrigation in Finney county.
Over $50 miles of bitches are now in op-
GRAFTON here, capable of irrigating over
"a, 900 acres of land

TRAIN WRECKED.

A Passenger Train on the Frisco Wrecked
Near Springfield, Mo.-The Engineer and
Fireman Killed.
SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, Oct. 2.-Passen-
ger train No of the Frisco road,
which left Springfield at 1000, about
ten minutes late, ran into an open
switch at Lyman at 1920, dashing
through stock cars. Engineer Maxey
Hall and Fireman Charlie Robinson
were both instantly killed. So far as
could be ascertained none of the pas
sengers were seriously injured. One
received broken arm, and several re-
ceived slight bruises. The switch had
been opened by some party undoub ted-
ly with the intent of wrecking the
train.
Lyman is only blind siding, there
being no depot or telegraph office there.
The three stock cars were just inside
the switch, SO that the engineer and
fireman had no warning of the danger
until the crash came. The officials OF
the road state that this is no less than
the fourth attempt which has been
made to wreck trains at Lyman during
the month of September. Each time
the attempt has been discovered in
time to prevent an accident until Sat-
urday night,

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and feyers
and permanently curing constipation:
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup Of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
t1factured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup OF Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Ast.ts.. ~ fi..its:

Houselzeepers family realizS the
danger Of all indiscriminate use of the
numerous baking powders nowadays
found upon every hand, and which are
urged upon consumers with such per.
sistency by peddlers and many grocers
on account Of the big profits made in
their sale. Most Of these powders are
made from sharp and eaustic acids and
alkalies which burn and indame the
alimentary organs and cause indiges-
ton, heartburn, diarrh9al diseases,
etc. Sulphuric acid, caustic potash,
burnt alum, all are used as gas-produc-
ing agents in such baking powders
Most housekeepers are aware of the
painful effects produced when these
chemicals are applied to the external
flesh. How much more acute must be
their action upon the delicate internal
membranes! Yet inscriptions manu-
facturers do not hesitate to use them,
because they make a very low-cost
powder, nor to urge the use of their
powders SO made, by all kinds of aliur-
ing advertisements and false repre-
sensations. All the low-priced or so-
called cheap baking powders, and all
powders sold with gift or prize, be-
long to this class.
Baking powders made from chemical
ly pure cream of tartar and bi-carbon-
ate Of soda ara among the most useful
of modern culinary devices They not
only make the preparation of finer and
more delicious cookery possible, but
they have added to the digestibility
and wholesomeness of our food. But
baking powders must be composed of
such pure and wholesome ingredients
or they must be tabooed entirely.
DIR. Edison, Commissioner of Health
of New York, in an article in the 'Doc-
tor of HYGIENE indicates that the adj
vantages of a good baking powder and
the exemption from the dangers of
bad ones in which the harsh and caus-
tic chemicals are used, are to be Sc
cured by the use of Royal Baking
Powder exclusively, and he recon-
mends this to all consumers. "The
Royal he says, contains nothing but
cream of tartar and soda refined to
chemical purity, which when combined
under the influence of heat and mois-
ture produce pure carbonic, or leaven-
ing, gas. The two materials used,
cream of tartar and soda, are perfectly
harmless even when eaten, but in this
preparation they are combined in ex-
act compromising weights, SO that
when chemical action begins between
them in the dough they practically dis
appear, the substance of both having
been taken to form carbonic acid gas"
Hence it is, he says, that the Royal
Baking Powder is the most perfect of
all conceivable agents for leavening
purposes.
1t seems almost incredible that any
manufacturer or dealer should urge
the sale of baking powders containing
injurious chemicals in place Of those
of well-known, pure, and wholesome
character simply for the sake of few
cents a pound greater profit; but since
they do, few words of warning seem
to be necessary.

CECIL AND THE FISHERMEN.



The Merchant Navy In the Time OF Good
Queen BesA
When Elizabeth came to the throne
the whole merchant navy of England
engaged in lawful commerce. amounted
to no more than fifty thousand tons.
You may see more now passing every
day through the gulf stream. In the
service of the crown there were but
seven revenue cruisers in commission,
the largest one hundred tons, with
eight merchant briggs altered for fight
ing. In harbor there were still q
score of large ships, but they were dis
mantled and rotting; of artillery fit for
sea wofk there was none. The men
were not to be had, and, as Sir William
Cecil said. to fit out ships without men
was to set armor on stakes on the sea-
shore. The mariners of England were
otherwise engaged, and in a way which
did not please Cecil. He was the ablest
minister that Elizabeth had. He SAW
at once that on the navy the prosperity
and even the liberty of England must
eventually depend.
If England was TO remain Protestant
it was not by articles of religion or
acts of uniformity that she could be
saved without fleet at the back Of
them But he was old-fashioned. He
believed in law and order and he has
left curious paper of reflections on
the situation. The ships companies
in Henry Wills days were re-
cruited from the fishing smacks,
but the reformation itself had
destroyed the fishing trade. In old
times, Cecil said, no flesh was eaten
on fish days. The king himself could
not have license Now to eat beef or
mutton on fish days was the test of a
true believer.
The English Iceland fishery used to
supply Normandy and Brittany as well
as England. Now it had passed to the
French. The Chester men used to fish
the Irish seas. Now they bad left
them to the Scots. The fishermen
had taken to privateering because the
fasts of the church were neglected. He
saw it was SO. He recorded his own
opinion that piracy, as he called it, was
detestable and could not last. He was
to find that it could last, that it was to
form the special discipline of the gen.
GRAFTON whose business would be to
fight the Spaniards- But he struggled
hard against the unwelcoms conclu-
sion. He tried to revive lawful trade
by navigation act. He tried to re-
store the fisheries by act of parliament.
Cecil introduced bill recommend
ing godly abstinence as a means to
virtue, making the eating of meat on
Fridays and Saturdays misdemeanor,
and adding Wednesday as half fish
day. The house of commons laughed
at him as bringing back popish num-
meries. To please the Protestants he
inserted clause that the statute was
politically meant for the increase of
fishermen and mariners, not for any
Superstition in the choice of meats;
but it was no use. The act was called
in mockery "Cecirs fast" and the re-
covcry of the fisheries had to wait till
the natural inclination of human stom-
achs for fresh whiting and salt cod
should revive of itself.-Froude, in
Longman's Magazine.

COLOSSAL COMBINATION.
A Universal Brotherhood of Railway Men
Projected.

Universal Brotherhood of Railway Men
Projected.
NEW YORK, Oct 1.-The Herald says:
There is now on foot in this country
and in Europe a plan to form an inter-
national railway union, which will in
clude in its membership all the railroad
employees of the civilized world.
The chief benefit of such union will
be through the bureaus of information
al correspondence, Through these, for
instance, the printers of England
and France are notified through the
International Typographical union that
the trade in this country is overcrowd-
ed; that many men are out of work,
and the unions are warned to keep
their members away. In the same
way, when trade is good and wages
high, the labor organizations in other
countries are notified and the men who
wish to emigrate are allowed to do so.
The amalgamation of the American
Railway union and the French union
of the same trade will be made. The
American Railway union now claims
membership of nearly 100000, two
thirds of the total membership of all
the old brotherhoods put together. 1t
admits to membership every employee
of railroads, no matter in what capaci-
ty. whereas the brotherhoods only adj
NIT skilled labor.
