RellIng Eegs by WeIght.

Until the time arrives when eggs ar q
sold by weight, both the poultryman
and the consumer will be cheated.
The consumer who buys his eggs by
the dozen never pays the same price.
He has the advantage to-day and loses
it tomorrow. When the prices paid
are based on weight, the sales can be
as easily made as with potatoes, which
are now sold by weight when sales are
made wholesale, though retail pur-
chasers often pay dearly for allowing
deliveries based upon bushel measures
that have slippery bottoms, all in
which the articles are "artistically ar.
ranged" with a view of filling the
measure with the fewest potstoeS.--

Professor SamuelS, known as the greatest
ocullst In this country, has permanently
located in Topeka, and has rooms over the
Hub Clothing store, he viii be ready to re-
cetve all callers and attend to patients by
Monday morning, September 16.
He positively cures nervous trouble OF what
ever Kind and does it entirely through the
eyes. Sore eyes he cures very quickly and
does it entirely without pain.
Professor Samuels has the reputation Of
being the greatest specialist In his line In the
United States, and he is ready st all times to
defend his reputation by challenging all
comers, Topeka people may justly be proud
Of the fact that they have within their midst
Q man whose reputation Is as broad 40 the ma
ton, and one who will constantly advertise
the town with his own name and residence.
Professor Samuels undertakes to cure any
disease Of the body coming from the eyes, II it
an be cured. II he can't cure you no one can.
In fact, he Is willing 90 back the statement
with money that no case which he cannot
benefit can be benefited by any oeulist IN the
country. This 10 q convincing on0r, and I'M
doubtedly places him at the head Of his pro-

Poultry I'm the Barnyard.

II is best to give the hens free range,
but they should never be allowed in
the barnyards and stables, as it is as
important to have a place for the
hens Rs for the horses and cattle. It
is not creditable to farmers that their
hens lay in the horse troughs or hay
mowA If the poultryhouse is clean,
and suitable nests are provided, there
Is no necessity for the hens laying
elsewhere. In favor Of the hens, it
may be mentioned that they often re-
sort to the barn because the poultry
house Is infected with lice. The barn
yard, however, Is not the place for
poultry, but for larger stock. Farm

draw the cord, the effort you will
thus make being multiplied by the
number Of turns to the rope, as in the

the desired result. But just as in the

Report That Fifteen Bannocks
Have Ben Killed.
RYE SMITH WAS THE LEADER
Great Excitement i'll Diamond Vale Y
Where the Militia TroopIs
Under Arms.

Burns. Or9 Aug. PA courier from
Diamond valley reports the killing of
10 Bannocks by cattlemen under the
leadership of Rye Smith. Smiths rea-
son was revenge for the murder of his
father in 1873 in Diamond valley. There
is great excitement in the town and
throughout the county. Troop A is in
readiness to march on short notice and
are waiting orders from the county
sheriff for authority to act. Indians
are reported as approaching the town
from the south, but are believed to be
friendly.
Burns is 20 miles from the railroad
and communication is therefore slow.
Many years ago the settlers in that
country had trouble with the Indians,
at whose doors were laid charges of
cattle stealing, murders Of prospectors
and other bloody deeds, but of late
years perfect peace has reigned. The
troop of cavalry is composed of the
best young men in the valley, and is
able to cope with any force the Indians
can muster. The authorities will thor
oughly investigate the matter and ar
rests may follow.

Topeka, Kan, Aug. 26.-Judge Henry
Caldwell of the United States circuit
court is here to try to enter decree
tomorrow for the sale of the Santa Fe
railroad. He was loath to talk of any
thing which concerns him personally.
Il suppose you know that you have
been mentioned in connection with the
presidential nomination." asked the
reporter.
Yes" he answered with some show
or difiidence, II have heard some talk
or 1t. 1t is matter about which 1 do
not care to talk. 1t is a question of in
dividual preference with the millions
OF voters. So far as 1 am concerned.
the mention of my name is out of the
question"
THE people in the west understand
that you are for free silver. That is
where you stand, is it not?" questioned
the reporter.
The face of the judge lightened up
with enthusiasm as he answered: Eyes.
Sir, that is correct. l am for free silver
without reserve or any reference to an
international agreement. II is plain to
me that there can be no international
agreement favorable to silver, because
England will not agree to accept free
silver. What is the use of paying any
attention to foreign countries anyway?
Are we not capable of managing our
own affairs? 1 think we are, and if
not 1 am in favor of annexing the Uni
ted States to Canada or some other
convenient country"

THE REPUBLICANS OF PENNSYLVANIA
State Committee Craftsmanship May Be
Carried TO the Courts


Harrisburg. Pa, Aug t5.-Chairman
Gilkeson, Of the republican state COM
mittee. has made up roll OF delegates
to the coming state convention which
meets Wednesday. 1t seems probable
that the contest for the craftsmanship
of the state committee will be carried
into the courts in the form OF an action
on behalf OF Senator Quay to compel
Chairman Gilkeson to surrender the
books and papers Of the committee.
The members OF that body will hold a
meeting tomorrow, at which a resolu-
ton will be adopted requesting Gilke-
son to attend and assist in the prepara-
ton of the roll OF delegates. He will
almost certainly refuse. and then it is
proposed that the committee elect V. P.
Cooper temporary chairman.
Legal steps will then be taken to
compel Gilkeson to surrender the books.
and an auditing committee will be
appointed to examine his accounts.
This program will probably be carried
out without opposition. as it is the pol
icy OF the Hastings people to ignore
any action the state committee NAV
take. The result Is in doubt. Both
sides claim they will win. but neither
faction IS willing to make public the
figures upon which they base their
predictions.

the flendish murderer was mutilating
the body Of the dead girl in the library
OF Emanuel church.
The defense will try to show that
the police have the testimony Of both
the young men, but have given it no
thought and no weight because it
would not fit their preconceived the
cries of the crime. Durrant himself
will trace his movements on that night,
and Will have the records of the Chris

what he will say. lie carried the rec

He will swear that he was busted in

deals with trusts and combines, with
commercial and financial speculation,
with the organization of women wage
workers, and with cooperation among
the working classes.
