BARELY KEPT ALIVE.
BIaine's Physicians Resort to the
Strongest Stimulants.
His Strength Held Up by Nitro-GIycer-
inc, and When That Fails There

Special to THE MoRxINe CALL.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10-AnOther aston
ishiDg and unexpected Improvement in the
condition Of Blaine occurred in The early
hours this morning. At / A. NJ. the physi-
clans announced that he had been worse
since s P. NJ, and at that hour was still
losing strength. The family then gathered
in the room adjoining. fearing the worst,
but the patient lost no more strength. and
at 2 A. NJ. he was sleeping quietly with no
indications of immediate dissolution, and
the family retired. His rest continued un-
broken until daylight. At 3 o'clock Dr.
Johnston said Mr.. Blaine was likely to die
at any time, bnt at 5 o'clock he said there
WAS no probability of death for some hours
at least. Half an hour later. on leaving the
house, he said there WAS no immediate dan
ger Of death.
DIR. Johnston retarned TO the house at
10 80 and remained half an hour. On leav-
ing he said Blaine was better than curing
the night. and his condition was as favor
able as could be expected. he continued to
take nourishment
There is but little hope for the anxious
family in the statement that Blaine Is
better. He is kept alive, it is stated, only
by the utmost care and skill On the part of
his medical attendants.
As an intimate friend Of the family ex-
pressed it: ''It is only question of h5w
long the doctors can ward off the end they
know must come before very long. Nitro
giycerine, which the doctors are administer
ing now, is probably the most potent stimu-
liant known TO the profession in such cases,
and It's use shows thai every other resource
has failed"
ATOP NJ. the doctors gave out the fol-
lowing bulletin: "Blaine passed quiet
day without incident. He has shown more
strength than yesterday, and his conyersa-
tion and manner are unusually bright and
cheerful"
The doctors stated in addition that they
had left for the night and should not re-
turn unless sent for.

THE REPUBLICAN DEFEAT.
Ex-senator Edmunds Explains How 1t
Happened.

Los ANGELES, Jan. 10.-Ex-Senator Ed
munds of Vermont was interviewed by an
Express representative at Redands to-day
respecting the prospects of the Republican
party. He said: "The old party Is not
dead by any means. The recent defeat was
one of those periodical epidemies which

France, for instance. where the people

CHEYENNE, Wyo., Jan. 10-At noon to-
day the second Legislative Assembly of
Wyoming convened. Interest centered in
the House, where much engineering was
expected. The first move was the refusal
to recognize Secretary of State Barber when
he tried to call the House to order. Then
Ben Scott was unseated in favor OF J.
Baker. j. d. Hurd was elected temporary
Speaker and afterward l.. c. TidbalI (Popu-
list) was elected Speaker. The Senatorial
fight is not so lively as during the preceding
few days, and it is thought now that many
of the candidates will be slaughtered ia
favor of dark horse.

KANSAS RAILROADS.

The Santa Fe is building a $4,000 de-
pot at Kingman.
About $4,000 per month is paid by
the Santa Fe road to it's employees at
Wellington.
Dispatches announce the death on
the Pacific coast of w. S. Mellin, of the
Northern Pacific railroad. Mr.. Mellin
lived in Topeka for many years and was
well known in Kansas railway circles.
The Santa Fe reports fast time on car
load of pears for Chicago and car load
of vegetables for Kansas City, which left
Hitchcock, Texas, at a. m. July 8. The
Kansas City car made the run in sixty
two hours and the Chicago car was just
100 hours in transit.
Topeka Capital: The Rock Island
was notified of a good rain at Liberal
Friday night and Saturday morning.
The officers claim that this assures the
broom corn crop of that section. There
were 800 acres of broom corn near Lib
eral, and it should bring $37 an acre.
A. W. Stillwell, travelling freight
agent of the Santa Fe, is travelling
through western Kansas to find out how
much seed wheat the people out there
want this fall. The company is going
to do it's part in furnishing it, although
the manner of distribution has not yet
been decided upon.
The Union Pacific company has adopt
ed novel plan for keeping down the
weeds in it's railroad yards in Kansas.
The company gets all the salt wanted,
for the hauling, at the Kanopolis salt
works, and it is shipped along the road
and scattered in the railway yards.
Weeds wither, die, dry up and blow
away. The salt is a refuse article that
accumulates as slack does at coal mine.
The article is mined in large quantities
at Kanopolis.

Engaged Couples In France.

After girl has passed her eigh-
tenth birthday she is thought to be
une demoiselle marier, but it is
considered bad taste for the parents
themselves to make any effort to
achieve a daughters marriage
Young men, excepting in the country,
where far greater liberty is allowed,
are seldom asked to visit a family
where there are grown-up daughters,
and, under rare circumstances, are
never asked to come to lunch or
dinner. On no account would a
French mother allow her daughter
to speak to man Of known bad char
acter or obviously unfit to become her
husband.
Marriage is an ever present posi-
bility in France where young people
are concerned. and as may be easily
imagined, this has both its advantages
and disadvantages. None Of these
rules apply to near relations Abroad
families sec a great deal of one an
other and cousins hardly ever develop
into husbandS probably because they
are allowed to see SO much Of their
younger cousins

A Woman's Age.

A woman has nothing but her age
to defend her. And she does her best
to keep that age as young as possible,
because she knows that the fewer
years it carries in the eyes OF others
the greater it's power to charm, the
surer it's strength to win her victories
IN the big battle of life She has an
arcanum for it Just as she has for the
wad Of false hair that she wears in a
bogus Psyche knot at the back of her
neck and for the little paint-tubeo 1T
Of which she squeezes the cheeriness
Of her lips. The man who tears away
the veil from this sanctum sanctorum
Of innocent and harmless white lies
deserves hereafter Of hornswogg1ing
in which perpetual procession of
houris' trample over his trembling
heart and Cupid ever hovers near with
his thumb to his nose and his fingers
spread out, hooking at and making
merry with him. In a recent breach
Of promise case the brother of the
defendant, in a cruel, desecative way,
went to work and revealed the alleged
real age Of not one woman, but of
six The fair plaintiff says she is 81.
The age unmasker says he has records
which prove that she is "a, and these
same records boost the ages of plan
tif's five sisters across the same seven
years Of time Isn't it awful? How
hard-hearted man must be TO pub
licly declare that woman is seven
years older than she says she is:
Where is our boosted modern chiv-
airy? What has become of the worlds
supply OF Chesterleldism? And how
about the thing we used to call gal
lantry? Evidently they are not a

Nature Demands a Tonic.

we ought never to forget, even those OF us
who possess vigorous health, that we are
wearing out-that the vital clock work, so to
speak, must eventually run down. This, of
course, we cannot prevent, because it is in
the ordinary course of nature, hut we may
retard the too speedy arrival of decay by the
use of an invigorant which takes rank of ev-
cry other,-namely Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers. This century has not witnessed par
allel in success to this famous medicine,
which not only sustains health by promoting
vigor, but overco ONES constipation, dyspep-
STA, chills and fever, nervousness, rheuma-
tism and other disordered conditions of the
system fostered by weakness and an impov-
erished condition of the blood. The feeble,
persons convalescing after exhausting dis
ease, and the aged, derive infinite benefit
from the use of this helpful and efficient
tonic

STOCK AND FARM.

Wilson county is having large crops
of peaches and apples.
The boss yield of wheat reported from
Kansas this year, is that produced by
Sumner county farmer on the Nine.
scah, which averaged forty-eight bush
els to the acre.
It is estimated that Sumner county
will have 100000 bushels of wheat
from this years crop, while there yet re-
mains in the county 100000 bushels
from former crops.
A Larned special says: Robert Por.
ter, one of the most prominent Odd
Fellows of this part of Kansas, dropped
off his horse while riding through Broad
way and died before anyone could reach
him.
S. Stern, of Gardner, raised 35 acres
of English blue grass this season, which
averaged II bushels of seed to the acre.
He could have sold the seed at 1O1
cents per pound or for 1922 per bushel,
total of $4,000.
Russell Record: A new species OF
fly is reported which is far more trouble
some and injurious to cattle than the
old fashioned kind. DR.. Hays says they
make the cattle run for the river as If
Beelzebub-the god of fies-was after
them, and Will Geer thinks they injure
the cattle's eyes.
Topeka Journal: A farmer in the
southern part of the county reports that
he has discovered something the equal
to Prof. Shows fungus for killing chinch
bugs. The bugs worked in his corn un-
til the stalks began to fall Then myr-
lads of bright green flies with black
heads and light, gauzy wings appeared.
They settled down on the chinch bugs,
and in three days they were gone.
Kansas City, Mo-, Journal: The re-
cent rains have assured good corn
crop throughout the Missouri valley and
good late pasture. The result has been
marked improvement in stockers and
feeders the past few days at the Kansas
City, Kans., stock yards. The demand
for good style, native feeders is ahead of
the supply, with prospect of still greater
improvement as the summer wears away.
Corn is declining every day, and its
growing cheapness will make farmers
more anxious than eyer to feed it.
At Beloit L. d. Wilcox exhibited two
stalks of corn grown on new ground,
ten feet four inches high. Each bore
two fine ears and the fifty acre piece
will average fifty bushels per acre.
Plainville Times: We were again Civ
en- our weekly installment of moisture;
in fact more than the regulation amount.
1t rained nearly all night, and was suf-
fcient to thoroughly soak the ground.
Corn had begun to need rain, but it is
now in fine condition. The prospects
for good crop could hardly be i'm
proved.
