Hearing so much about the wonderful
work of "Zsro" we called upon him at
his office in the Veale block to learn
something of and about his method of
doing business; on reaching the office
we found the reception room crow ded
with people. To meet FARO is to meet
a perfect gentleman, a good conversa-
tionalist and a man who thoroughly
understands his business. The afflicted
come to him in every way that a person
can conceive of, and as he guarantees
a cure it is no wonder that he is so
popular and that people flock to see
him. We asked FARO how he performed
his cures. He said shy medicine alone"
Do you use no other means-no faith, no
magnetic healing? Do you wish to in
suit me, sir? l have told you newspaper
people that l do not believe in any such
nonsense, or any such fake If you wish
to know what l think of the So called
magnetic (?) and faith cure healer ~
come to the Library Hall Wednesday
night you will learn there. I would ex-
tend an invitation to every one of these
healers ~ in the city to be there. will
wake you all up.
When asked in regard to this lecture
to ladies, FARO said: There are thou
sands of women who go through this
world suffering all it is possible for per-
son to suffer, women who spend almost
every cent they can get hold of or their
husbands earn for doctors bills, whereas
if women were educated in sexual
science ana know more about themselves,
we would have healthier wives and
mothers than we have today.
E'My lecture to ladies is plain talk, a
talk that will interest any woman, but l
do not wish ladies to get a wrong idea in
regard to the nature of this lecture. If
they think it is a talk on religion or poll
tics, they will be mistaken. Women
who are affl icted with false mOdesty
should not attend this lecture. 1t is a
talk that is plain and to the point, but
| there will not be one word said, or one
thing shown that will offend any lady,
| but l repeat that it will interest any
woman who is interested in her own or
| her daughters health. | have never
| given this lecture anywhere but what
have been requested to give another OF
! the same nature. There have been q
| great many lectures given to ladies, it is
true, but they will find that the subject
of this lecture is entirely original and
different from anything ever given
here"
Ladies who attend the two free lee
| lures to be given this and Thursday even
ings, for both men and women, will find
FARO to be an original talker, a man who
does not believe in giving fong- winded
dry talk on medicines, he gives public
clinic tonight and Thursday night Al
both lectures tonight and tomorrow
night the admission is free, on Friday
night an admission of % cents is charged
| at the private lecture for ladies. The
FARO Medical institute is in the Vealt
block, rooms and s. Office hours from
a. m. to p. N. We had the pleasure
of meeting Zaro's assistant physician
Dr. Leslie Engle, physician and sur
geon of note.

SECRETARY CARLISLE says the free
coinage of silver will actually reduce the
amount of money in circulation because
it will drive 1925, 900, 900 of gold out of
the country. In another part of his
speech he says this gold will be exchang-
ed for silver one dollar for two Accord
ing to the way we figure out here in the
west transaction of that kind would in
crease the currency just $625,0OO,0O0;
but then we are not financiers and are
not supposed to know anything about
such matters. John Sherman could no
doubt explain this apparent discrepancy
between the two statements

BURLINGTON AFFECTED.
If It Has to Fight the Northern Pacific
1t Won't Be Beaten.

1t Won't Be Beaten.
OMAHA, May 29.-It is the talk in
local railroad circles that the alliance of
the Northern Pacific with the Great
Northern is liable to bring about changes
in the traffic contract with the BurIing-
ton, and it may be necessary for the
Burlington e Missouri river to protect
its western interests by paralleling the
Northern Pacific tracks west of Billings
in order to gain entrance in the north
west country.
When J. NJ. Hannaford, general traf-
fic manager of the Northern Pacific, was
in Omaha fortnight ago, talking to a
friend, he is represented to have said
that the traffic arrangements with the
B. & VI. were of such a character as to
give his company considerable annoy
ance, and to know what to do with the
contract was bothering officials not lit
tie.
This uncertainty grows out of the in
roads which the Burlington has been
making on the freight haul for
Puget Sound points, much of which has
heretofore gone by way of St. Paul
Now that Jim Hill has obtained foot
ing with the Northern Pacific aud will
virtually dictate its policy the knowing
ones believe that the contract with the
Burlington will be annulled.
But the Burlington has already realized
| the Importance of a line between Chi
cago and Puget sound and it is under
stood a corps of surveyors are already in
the field running line west from Bill
lings.
Whether the objective point is Seattle
is hard to determine. One thing is set
| tied, the B. & NJ. will not be placed al
| the mercy of a northern line.

TIE L0URNAL' DID IT.

The only Republican paper in Kansas
that did any real effective work against
the Populist Lewelling administration
last summer was the STATE JOURNAL,
1t was a STATE JOURNAL reporter that
described the disgraceful junketing trip
of the Populist state board of railroad as
SCISSORS which appeared in the JOURNAL
under the heading "Reform on Wheels"
and was copied into more than one
hundred and fifty Republican papers.
1t was STATE JOURNAL reporter who
ferreted out the fact that the Populist
state officials carried Pullman passes and
prevented the railroad men of Kansas
fro N being deceived by the sentimental
gush of the Populist managers.
It was STATE JOURNAL reporter that
exposed the incompetency of Popullst
DR.. McCasey at the state insane asylum
and forced his resignation.
1t was a STATE JOURNAL reporter that
first reported the outrages at the state
reform school.
1t was a JOURNAL reporter that first
secured and published the account of the
purchase of the worthless school bonds
Dozens of other cases of wrong doing
or laundering were published by the
STATE JOURNAL.
While all the little brass collar party
organs in Kansas were contenting them
selves with fat, common place editorials"
which did not do the Populists one iota
of harm, the STATE JOURNAL was dealing
the Lewelling administration sledge
! hammer blows under which it went down
to destruction.
Governor Lewelling once said that the
paper most dreaded by his administration
was the STATE JOURNAL, because its
statements were SO universally believed.
Now, the little one horse brass collar
organs who don't amount to a Whit Of
wind in fighting campaign because
they never get hold of any FACTS about
their adversaries are attacking the STATE
JOURNAL and trying to make out that it
is a'Populist paper because it criticises
the present laundering Morrill, admins

The JOURNAL always goes after facts.
Facts count Facts destroyed Mr.. Level
ling, and facts will destroy any man
when they show that he is dishonest

they may. Facts are what our 10000

THAT LONG DRY DITCH.
British Stockholders VIII See What They
Can Do with It.

Can Do with It,
Eugene F. Ware and J. W. Gleed
have gone to Dodge City to buy the
famous Eureka" irrigation ditch which
is being sold at forced masters sale in
the interest of Englishmen who own
$1,000,00O of the bonds on the ditch. The
gullibiIity of English investors is shown
in this case to perfectihn.
The ditch is 90 miles in length ex-
tending from the Arkansas river in
Gray county. near Ingalls,, to the Cimar-
ron. There is very little water in the
ditch and it has proved failure.
The English bond holders who will buy
the canal may take steps to improve it
and at least attempt to make it of some
practical use to the surrounding country.
When Mr.. Gleed went to London last
summer it was to make arrangements
for the purchase and report on the con-
dition and ACCESSIBILITY of improving the
ditch.

The show place" among the irrigated
farms around Garden City is the old
Holmes farm. 1t was the first one
around Garden City to be irrigated. 1t
is now owned by man named Richter.
He no longer depends on a ditch from
the Arkansas river for his water. He has
a Menge pump with capacity of 10000
gallons of water per hour, operated by
small engine. The water is taken from
an artificial lake which has been scoop
ed out to the underfow.
The water is carried to the fields di-
rect from the pump by means of ditch,
and then by the use of burrows applied to
the growing crops and rows of fruit
trees. Mr.. Richter has three fields of
Irish potatoes, twenty acres in all, that
are looking fine, and one field of which
containing eight acres the young pota-
toes are setting on and are from the size
of a shot to a small marble. His orchards
are loaded with apples, plums and cher
