THREE OPINIONS.
WHAT THREE PROMINENT MEN HAVE
SAID OF PROF. EAMUELS.
A st. Louis Oculist, DR.. Fryer of
Kansas City and DR.. Wood Of
Quincy, Ills.-Opinions Which
Should Convince the People
Prof samuels Cures Where All
Others Fail.

Is money good for anything after all?
Money can buy clothes, and money can
buy trinkets; but can money buy life,
can money buy health? In the estima-
ton of Prof Samuels, money is really
curse. But what is a person to dof
People can't get along without it.
If a person is sick in Topeka, and he
has money, he will go to Kansas City
for physician. If a Kansas City man
is sick, he goes to Chicago A Chicago
man goes to New York for medical at
tention, and a New York man crosses
the ocean to consult the doctors of the
old world
Prof. Samuels speaks from actual
observation. A little instance is worth
noticing.
Senator J. G. Mohler of Salina, Kan,
called upon Prof. Samuels about four
teen years ago to have his eyes fitted
with glasses. He wore them constantly,
and they gave him great satisfaction.
Still he thought he could better his con-
dition, and several years after, when he
was attending the Masonic conclsve in
St Louis, in marching through the
streets he observed a sign, "Optician."
He put the address down in his note
book, and later returned to consult the
oculist concerning his eyes. His eyes
were examined and the oculist tried
pair after pair of glasses, and could no,
fit him. Finally he asked Mr.. MOhler
where he got his last glasses
Mr.. Mohler replied: "From travel
ing optician. You don't know him"
Where was he from?" asked the ocu
! list
From Quincy, Illindis," said Mr..
Mohler, "and his name was Prof. Sam
uels."
"Dear stranger" remarked the oculist,
stake your glasses. I am candid with
you. We never can improve upon that
mans work. He is as perfect as they
make them"
The senator was satisfied, and he still
uses the same glasses.
A certain business man a few years
ago, asked DR.. Fryer, the great oculist OF
Kansas City, Mo-, what he thought of
Prof Samuels. His reply was. There
is no better optician in the United States
| than he"
The editor of the Journal of Quincy,
ILL.,, once asked the oculist. Dr. Wood,
what he thought of Prof. Samuels-as he
said, "our" Prof. SAmuels. when you
speak of that man" said DR.. Wood, you
| must remember that there is no one his
equal in the entire country"
These few incidents ought to convince
the people of Topeka that they have
with them the best skill in the country.
PROT Samuels will challenge any one,
not only in this part of the country, but
in the world. He will cure where all
others fail.
Prof. Samuels will be at the Hotel
Throop but short time longer.

OUR MINERALS.
Output of 1894 Decreased on Account OF
the Financial Conditions.

Output of 1894 Decreased on Account OF
the Financial Conditions.
WASHINGTON, June 24.-The annual
government report of the mineral re-
sources of the United States for the
calendar year 1894 has been completed.
The total output shows a great decline
from the output of 1898, due, the re-
port says, mainly to the financial con-
ditions, but also to special features
which affected the net result. The
most notab of these was the strike of
the bituminous coal miners, accounting
largely for the greatly decreased pro
duction and increase in price for part
of the year. The strike naturally in
creased the use of anthracite, which
partly made up for the decreased de-
mand for this substance, due to depres-
sion of manufacturers. The low price
of silver is responsible for the de-
creased production.
The consumption of petroleum ex-
ceeded the production, greatly de-
creasing the stocks at wells and in
creasing the prices. The total pro-
duct was valued at 1924, 955, Isl. The
total value of non-metallic mineral
products was $3O5, 1856, 343; metallic,
$2I6, 1853, 78s, and inspected mineral
products estimated at S11, 900, 900.
The gold product for the year is the
largest since 1878, increasing from
1889, 0s1 troy ounces for 1893 with a
coinage value of Soe,95o, oO0- Silver
production declined over 10000. 600
ounces.
The rapidly increasing zinc product
of late years was checked in 1898 and
1894, and a slight decline noted in
both years

In Their own Behalf.

BUTTE, Neb., June 24.-To-day the
alleged 1ynchers OF Barrett Scott
will be placed on the stand
to testify in their own behalf. They
are expected to assist in estab-
fishing an alibi by declaring that
they were hunting stock in the sand
hills at the time of the lynching. This
cannot be successfully denied, as in

ants homes there is a vast territory in
which stock ranges, and where white

(, Ft',it craving in the vest is no long
er an experiment, but an established
fact, as was cleariyrdemenstrated at
.oul'great exposition in Chicago. But
to. grow a successful orcihr6 in the
great corn belt,ef the west requires
careful mantlgement. The amateur
without education along the line of
horticulture, or experience, would be
as likely to make IA failure in. fruit
growing as the sailor would in agricnl-
ture, orthe dry goods man.h the Zine
stock business. To be successful in
fruit growing at least three things
should be understood: Selection of soil,
yarietieSof trees to plant, and how to
plpat and cultivate.
First, we would consider the selee'
ton of soil and location of the orchard.
1T is important to have good location
near the dwelling convenient for the
wife and children, to make home cheer
full and fruit accessible, and invite the
| winged songsters to enliveR all nature
around u.s.
The location should be on the high
est elevation possible, so as to afford
air drainage to lessen the danger from
frost in the blossoming period, and as
sist in ripening the terminal buds for
winter.
The ground should be strong and
rich. The idea that. some have adj
vanced that thin soil is needed for an
orchard, is thing Of the past. The
soil must be strong enough to grow n

than any other, and would prefer a
deep, black, vegetable mold for the
surface. | find that such soils are well
adapted for fruit, and produce apples

slope west of the divide in the Mis-

AT the exposition we made it strong
point to ascertain where all the bes
specimens of fruit grew in Iowa anc

that they grew on high, dry, rich soils
