sEEMs rOBE A SCAMP.


That is Chief WiIkersOn's Estimate of
joe Ksrvin, Charged with Larceny
Chief of Police Wilkerson was in Kan
sas City yesterday looking up evidence
in the case of Joe Kervin, the effeminate
looking young man who stole valuable
diamond ring from Mrs. Colby on To-
peka avenue. Kervin claimed at the time
of his arrest that his home was in Chi
Chicago at addresses that he gave. When
Chief Wilkerson was in Chicago after
W. E. Dom he took the trouble to look
up kervin's addresses and found there
were no such numbers as those given.
In Kansas City Chief Wilkerson learned
that Kervin has been under arrest and
that two of his confederates are still in
the work house.
He worked a number of people for
board and lodging, representing that he
worked for Emery, Bird & Co.
Chief Wilkerson is convinced that
young Kervin, young and inoffensive as
he looks, is a genuine scamp, aod pro-
poses to see that he gets what he de-
serves,

STRONG ADVANCES.
This Weeks Trade Marked by
Big Changes.
Principal Rises We're in Wheat
and Cotton.
BOTH CROPS SHORT.
Wheat Market is Supported by
Public Buying.

NEW YORK, June 1-R- 6. Dun's
Weekly Review of Trade says: More
far-reaching than any other change
during the past week, if really war
ranted by facts, is the continued rise in
prices of wheat and cotton. Real scar
city of either would affect all business.
Happily, there is still room to hope that
accounts of injury are greatly exagger-
ated, although there has been some evil
dence during the week that both the
great crops have suffered more than at
first appeared. Other changes are
almost all favorable and some
highly encouraging, labor troubles are
clearly less threatening, monetary
conditions are satisfactory, and the
substantial increase in the commercial
demand is a good sign. Exchanges
through the clearing houses have been
greatly inflated by speculation, and at
this time last year were cut down by the
coal strike, and toward the end of May,
1898, greatly reduced by bank failures.
but for the week exceed last years by
10 per cent, and fall only SO per cent.
below those of 1898, while the daily
average for May is 800 per cent larger
than last year, but IL less than in 1893.
Wheat is largely supported by public
buying, and the purchasing orders
from farming regions are supposed to
indicate an opinion of the yield. Yet
wheat comes forward freely, as it
would not at current prices if a short
crop were assured, and western re-
ceipts for the month have been 5, 944,-
574 bushels, against 5,525, 258 last year.
Nor do Atlantic exports reflect in
creased haste to buy abroad, amount
ing in four weeks flour included) to
6, 1873, 42O bushels, against 9, 49, 97 last
year.
Cotton continues strong because it
is believed there will be much reduc-
ton in yield per acre, as well as in
acreage. No estimate based on def
mite information puts the decrease in
acreage at more than 1875 per cent,
which, with a yield per acre equal to
last years, would mean a crop of
400 900 bales.
The iron manufacturer is gaining
rapidly, and the average of prices,
which had fallen February 1, to 54.1
per cent. of the prices in October, 1891,
has now risen to 59.1 per cent. most
of the advance having been in May.
The failures during he past week
have been 215, against 1873 last year.

THE cArNcH BUG PEST.

Missouri Experimental station Sending Out
Many Infected Bugs.
COLUMBIA. Mo, June 1.-Since May
1 DIR. Paul Schwietzer, chemist of the
Missouri state experimental station,
has been issuing packages of diseased
chinch bugs to be distributed through
out the crops of the state for the pur-
pose of creating an epidemic among
the healthy bugs, thus DISCRIMINATING
them. Since that time DR.. Schwietzer
has received over 1000 letters asking
for infected bugs.
Many of the letters, which came
from every county in Missouri, as well
as from adjoining states, declare that
the chinch bugs are more numerous
this year than ever before in the his
tory of the state: that the wheat crops
are being literally devoured, and that
it looks as if corn would suffer the
same fate. The experiments with the
infection made by the station have
proved thoroughly successful on many
of the bugs.

REGIMENTAL FLAG ALTERED
Some of tn e Numerous Changes Made in

Some of tn Numerous Changes Made in
Army Regulations.
WASHINGTON, June Under the
supervision of Assistant Secretary Doe,
the formida BILE task of revising the
regulations of the United States army
has just been brought to close, and
as soon as the final proofs have passed
the scrutiny of the bureau chief the
volume will be printed and distrib uted
to the army. The changes have been
very numerous, and while they have
been generally directed to a simplifi-
cation of style and the removal of am
biguities, in some instances important
amendments have been made.
One of interest to the public is the
reduction in the size of the regimental
flag. This is now feet inches long,
by feet wide on the staff. Conse-
quently it is almost square and very
far wide Of the accepted proportions of
a graceful standard. In addition it is
very heavy and only the most stalwart
men can carry one in good breeze for
any considerable distance.
At the suggestion of the assistant
secretary this has now been changed
so that the new flag will be feet 6
inches long. by feet inches on the
staff, a much better proportion of
width to length. The change has not
met with a single objection.

Faro VIII Give All Medical Service
Free For Only Two Days MOre-A
small Charge For Medicine Only.

It is safe to say that no man ever came
to Topeka who has created as much of
sensation and performed such astound-
ing cures as FARO has. He has, with the
aid of his wonderful medicines, become
one of the most popular physicians that
has ever visited Topeka
FARO has now been here only short
time and from early morn to late at
night his office has been continually
crowded with people of all classes and
conditions of life.
When asked about his lecture to be
given next Monday night FARO SAID:
"People may think that the title ls a
startling one, but it is nothing to what
the lecture is, and do not know of
better name 1 could give it. have
been condemned for giving it this title
but can not help it. In this one re-
spect l consider my work just as high
as that of the minister; the minister
points out and tells you how to live for
the life to come. l will tell the men
how to live the life they now have and
if man does not live a right life here
now, how can he expect to live the one
to come? This lecture is one every man,
old and young, should hear"
FARO is surely doing good work here.
He seems to be independent; says he
he says his work will speak for itself.
1t is an interesting sight to go to Zaro's
office and watch the people as they go
into the doctors private consulting room.
They go in with pale, haggard, hopeless
looking faces, stay short time and come
out, but. oh, what change-the face is
now brighter, smile lights up the wan
face, the light of hope once dawns for
them.
An admission of 25c will be charged
at the lecture Monday evening next for
men only.
There was large and we'll pleased
audience of ladies at Library hall last
evening to hear Zaro's lecture to ladies
only, and from what we can learn they
came away we'll repaid for their visit.
People are focking from all parts of
the state to see FARO, and the work he is
doing here is simply wonderful. FARO
says he will give free treatment and all
medicine for two days more only. Sun
dav the free treatment closes, only a
small charge made for medicine neces-
sary to effect a cure. The FARO Medical
institute is located in the Veale block,
rooms and s, office hours from 9 a. N.
to o. N. Consultation free. Faro
says he will answer all letters written
to him.

A Pbilanthropio Duchess.

Her grace likes to go among the duke s
people as my lady bountiful. One
day the duchess met a tenant on one of
the duca1 estates, and the man, ques-
toned by her grace, said that ''the wa
ter came in here and got out there, and
this wanted repairing and that. " My
good man, - said the duchess, ''you have
only to complain to Mr.. Blank, the
steward. " To this he replied that he
had done SO without avail ''Then I'll
speak to the duke. y ''Ah, my lady, the
duke is in the stewards hands and
won't do nothing 'Then," said the
duchess, ST will punish them both by
ordering q new house to be built for
you. - And one is now in course of con-
struction.

hard game from start to finish. In

A Radical Change in the System Said to Be

WASHINGTON, June 1.-Acting Sec
rotary Doe has under consideration
and will probably adopt plan that
will inaugurate a radical change in
the system of payments to troops of
the army. 1t is proposed that here
after instead of making long trips in
person to pay the troops, the pay
masters shall send the necessary
cash by express to the command
ing officer of the post where
the payments are made, all
made up in separate packages, if neces-
sary, for delivery to each man. This
will, it is believed, enable the pay
master to pay off more rapidly than
under the present system, for he can
make several shipments in one day and
the men will receive their money
almost simultaneously instead of wait
ing till the paymaster in the course OF
his rounds of the posts reaches them
