ATouchfu9 Incident.

A valued subscriber at Clifton sends
the following item to the Bulletin under
date of December 9th:
"On Wednesday last troop Of Unit
ed States cavalry passed through Cliff
ton. Mr.. Fraissinet's horse, which was
grazing on Metz fat, instantly recog-
nized its old companions and at once
joined the ranks, marching through
Clifton and keeping step with the true
military precision, although, walking
on three legs. The horse was at once
recognized by Sargent Bateman, not
withstandlng the fact it had been con-
demned as a cavalry animal fifteen years
ago.

When person begins to grow thin
there is something wrong. The waste
is greater than the supply and it is only
a question OF time when the end must
come.
In nine cases out of ten the trouble is
with the digestive organs. IL you can
restore them to a healthy condition you
will stop the waste, put on new flesh
and cause them to feel better in every
way. The food they eat will be digest
ed and appropriated to the needs of the
system, and a normal appetite will ap-
pear.
Consumption frequently follows a
wasting Of bodily tissue because nearly
all consumptives have indigestion. The
Shaker Digestive Cordial will restore
the stomach to healthy condition in a
vast majority Of cases. Get one of their
books from your druggist and learn

COAT AND TENT COMBINED.
A New Device Which viii BE Tested in
the Army.

WASHINGTON, Sept 6-The war de-
partment, in pursuance of its efforts to
add to the comfort aud convenience of
the soldier, is about to test new device
which has met with considerable success
in the Austrian army The article about
to be tried is a combination of an over
coat and tent. Il is intended for use on
forced marches, picket duty, etc. 1t is
diamond shaped when spread out, and
when worn by the soldier folds SO as to
form a sack coat which falls well below
the knee. One of the points of the dis-
mond forms hood which can be used in
stormy or cold weather.
When on forced march OF service, in
which it is not convenient to carry tents,
the coat can be transformed into
V-shaped tent in few minutes, and each
coat forms a tent large enough to shelter
one man. In case larger shelter is re-
Quired, the coats can be laced together
by the buttonhoIes SO as to accommodate
a dozen men. No poles are required,
the gun and bayonet serving this pur-
pose,

KITES - NILES HIGH.
New YOrk's Expert Kite Flyer Makes
Interssting Experiments.


Interesting Experiments.
NEW YoRK, Sept. Colbert T. Wog-
lon, New York's expert kite flier, who
sent large flag to an elevation of 1000
feet by means of six kites one above an
other, At the dedication of the Memorial
Arch in Washington square, is constant
~ xperimenting.
He has appliances by which he can
send kites, under favorable atmospheric
conditions, to a height of nearly a mile
and half above the earth's surface.
Soon, however, he hopes to add another
1900 feet to this altitude.
Yesterday Mr. Woglom sent up eigh-
teen kites during the day, but the wind
velocity aud the currents were SO
changeable that they only attained an
sent up tandem at one time, with a red
silk one in the lead Mr.. Woglom FREE
quently sends uD ten or twelve kites at
once, attached by short pennant lines to
a single cable By means of self-reg-
istering scale the resistance or s'pun" and
the weight carrying power are readily
computed.
A few weeks ago a basket of homing
pigeons weighing eight pounds was sent
up on an ingeniously constructed frame
attached to the main cable. At the height
of 1900 feet the pigeons were liberated.
Instead of circling upward, as is their
invariable custom when first liberated at
ordinary levels, the birds came slowly
down for about 1000 feet, and then get
ting their bearings, they started i0r
home.

WHILE some people are sneering at
Mexico as a country whose money is
worth but 90 cents on the dollar it is we'll
to remember that according to a state
ment recently made by President Diaz

imports from England are increasing.
Here is a point worthy of the considera-
ton of American manufacturers. This
increase of imports is from England
Why not from the United States? We
should be able to undersen any country
In the world. If we can't do it, it proves
that there is wrong some where that

bers of congress should set about dis
covering what the trouble is and apply

BOWLER's OWN OPINION.
He Declares she Sugar Bounty Act Uncon-
stitutiOnal.


stitutional
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.-R. B. Bowler,
the comptroller of the treasury, yes
terday rendered an opinion on the now
celebrated Oxnard sugar bounty
claims, in which he holds in effect,
first. that he, as comptroller has
jurisdiction of the case, and second,
that, in his opinion, the act of March
2, 1895, making the sugar bounty ap-
preparation is unconstitutional. He,
however, decides that the papers in
the case be sent to the court of claims
for the rendition of judgment, in
order that there may be furnished "a
precedent for the future action of the
executive department in the adjust
ment in the class of cases involved in
these sugar bounties. :"
The particular claim decided is SUBJ
stantially on the same footing as all
other sugar bounty claims. for the
satisfaction of which congress, at its
last session, appropriated So, 233. 289.
The comptroller answers at great
length the arguments presented by
counsel at the hearing, in which his
jurisdiction was attacked, and in the
course of his reply, he says statutes
'
ton, are not law, and therefore, when
a statute is in apparent conflict with
the constitution it becomes the duty of
the executive officer to determine for
himself as between the statute and the
constitution whether the statute is the
law.
AS to the constitutionality of the
act, the comptroller says in part that
the principle has so long been decided
that taxation must be for public pur-
pose; that an attempt to take money
from the people by the forms of taxa
ton for purpose other than public
one, is not an exercise of Legislative
power and, therefore, that an attempt
to do so is a mere nullity. as an effort
by the legislature to exercise power
not granted by the constitution.
Manufacturing establishments have
been uniformly treated as private
rather than public enterprises. Nu-
merous decisions are cited tending to
show that factories of all kieds, saw
mills, rolling mills, etc, are private,
and are in no sense public enterprises.
It is suggested that when congress
gets out of the domain of law and in to
the realm of equity and justice their
power is unlimited. That would be
no doubt true if congress could get
out OF the domain of law, but it can
not do so.
The bounty of the act of 1895 is not
limited to those who may have suf-
fered an injury by failure to receive
the bounty of the Mckinley act, but is
given to all alike, whether they suf-
fered loss or not. There is nothing
which indicates that it is intended to
make compensation for such injury,
and that cannot be implied. !
By refusal to pay the claims the
ultimate rights of the claimants are in
no way affected, for they have a per-
feet remedy in court to test the valid
ity of their claims and obtain payment
thereof after final determination of
the constitutionality of the law, if it
be held unconstitutional
If the comptroller had no other al
tentative than to pass or reject the
claims, for the reasons above given,
his duty to the whole people, who can
not bring their rights into court,
would require him to reject them.

PLUMBERS HAVOC.
They Ruin the Paved streets When They
Put Down Piping.


City Engineer Barnes is now devoting
his attention to the repair of the stone
block pavement. He has the "sewer
force" which is composed OF two men,
going over the pavement, and where a
low place is found, they take up the
stones and fill up under them, bringing
the place up to the level of the street.
He SAYS that nearly all these low places
are caused by plumbers who neglected to
properly fill the place when they made
an excavation
When the work on the stone pave
ment has been completed the attention
of the engineer will be given to the
cedar block pavement on West Sixth
street which is sadly in need of repair
in many places. At Topeka avenue and
Sixth avenue the street intersection was
naved wider than necessary and there
will be enough of the blocks taken up
to make all the repairs without extra
cost for paving blocks. The bad places
in the pavement are caused by the wood
paving blocks decaying.
The work on the asphalt pavement has
been discontinued because all the money
set aside by the council for that purpose
has been used. The council should i'm
mediately set aside more money. The
asphalt streets should be kept up.

Perhaps he might find some excuse for

counts. The word useless is used adj

S. sproat's Big Department Store Opened
With q Reception.

With q Reception.
Mr.. s. Sproat, proprietor of the new
Model Supply store, corner of Sixth and
Quincy streets kept open house last
evening and he and his clerks enter
tanned several thousand people.
Five large electric lamps in front of
the store on Sixth street make it the
best lighted place in Topeka and give
it thoroughly metropolitan appearance.
Visitors were last night shown through
all the departments of the new store
and were served with coffee and cold
drinks, while Jackson's band, stationed
in front of the store, furnished music
during the evening.
The opening was a success and shows
that a good advertiser has the attention
of the public. The store seemed to be
complete in all departments, but no
goods were sold last night This morn
ing the Model Supply store opened for
business.

PLATr AND QUAY are said to have
formed a combination for the purpose of
controlling the nomination of a candi-
date for president. New York and
Pennsylvania together will furnish about
one fourth of the number of votes neces-
sary to make a majority. The combina-
ton is therefore formidable one, and
all the candidates may be expected to
court an alliance with it. One thing is
certain, and that is that Harrison will
stand no chance with the combine and
Mckinley very little.
