TERRIBLE EXPLOSION
Too High Pressure.

In these days of keen competition in every
line, when the business man is compelled to
bend his intellect and every energy to the
success of his business; the clerk, book
keeper, professional man and laborer to
drive themselves at a terrific rate, there can
be but one result-an explosion, which, if
not resulting in immediate death, leaves
them with shattered brains and bodies.
They are running at too high pressure.
The strain is too great. Something must
and does give way. This is equally true of
women. Though their sphere is more
limited, they have their daily burdens, fretS,
and worries and the results are the same as
with their stronger companions.
This condition is growing worse every
day. The rapidity of its increase is awful
to contemplate. Our homes, hospitals, and
insane asylums are full of these unfOrtunates,
and are being crowded still further. There
Is but one solution of the matter. Recog-
nize the Importance Of the situation at once,
and take the necessary measures to over
come it. If you have failing memory, hot
flashes. dizziness, nervous or sick headache,
biliousness, irritability, melancholy, sleep
lessness, faintipg, nervous dyspepsia. epl-
lepsy, ETC., know that any one OF them is but
a symptom Of the calamity that may befalll

called remedies and treated with reputable
physicians with little or no benefit, give DR..

Nervine with marked benefit, and later induced
nv son, who had been sick with catarrh of the

The legislative committee charged
with the Investigation of charges
against William Rogers, regent of
the state university, made by Cyrus
Leland, jr., as reported the three re-
pubticans, Senator X s. Wilcockson
and Representatives Alexander Warn
ar and |. Il. Lambert, voting guilty,
and the two populists, Senator A. s.
Cooke and Representative j. f. Pan
cake, voting not guilty. Therefore
majority and minority reports were
made. Both are address to Governor
Morrill,. The majority report is as
follows;
I'VE, the undersigned committee
appointed for the purpose Of investi-
eating the charges made by Q. LIE
land, jr, against William Rogers as
regent of the state university, having
concluded our investigation, beg leave
to make the following report:
We lind from the testimony (which
is transmitted with the reporC that
the said William Rogers is, and has
been, since tue commencement of his
term of Office as member of the board
ofregents of the University of Kansas,
addicted to the excessive use of In
toxicatlng liquors,
We further fud that his conduct
aud the example he sets are detri
mental to the hest interests of the
state university and we recommend
that he be removed"
The minority report is as follows:
I'VE find that the SAID William
Rogers did use some intoxicating
liquors together with qulnlne during
the last session of the Legislature;
that he used the same under the direc-
ton and advice of his physician and
for medical purposes; and that he
used the same in his committee room
and at biz boarding house, but we do
not find that William Rogers either
used Intoxicating liquors to excess or
Kept the same in his committee room
a. beverage.
ave find that the specific charge of
immoral conduct, so far as it charges
A. intoxIcatlon and a maudlln
"1 ,:.: Naolutely false aud
at. but
without any foundation in Ia,
that in the heat of controversy he
may have used language unbecomlng
u gentleman occupying his official
position in the place where said con
troversy took place.
I'VE find that the specification
charging incompetency is not sus-
tanned by the evidence, but on the
contrary, by a perponderance of tes
tmony, the proficiency, efficiency and
capability of William Rogers, as a re-
gent of the State university were
proven beyond doubt,
I'VE find that while Mr.. Rogers's
personal habits in taking an OCCASION
al glass are not to be commended,
yet we further find that William
Rogers's official conduct, as regent of
the State university, is highly com
mendable and especially beneficial to
said institution

IN OCEANS DEPTHS.
What Becomes of Thousands of
Wrecks.

In looking at the ocean the mind
| almost instinctively turns to the fate
of the ships which have found their
resting place therein, says the New
York Journal. If the reader was ap-
pointed to inspect the bottom OF the
drained sea, he would be sure to look
at once for some remnants of this
kind, overwhelmed by storm and
battle.
Fancy has depicted these vessels
as thickly strewn over the bottom of
the ocean, and at times as suspended
in the depths, unable on account of
the density of the water, to find their
way down. But all known of the
conditions of the deep leads US to be-
lieve that the vessel sinks to the bot
tom straight away. In few hours,
at most, it reaches it's everlasting
grave, and is ready for the swift de-
struction which awaits it.
When it reaches the bed of the sea
it must in part sink into the ooze,
which everywhere is deep. Quickly
the creatures of the sea, who, by long
existence in fields where food is
scanty, have learned to avail them
selves of every chance of subsistence,
seize upon all the organic matter
which fortune has sent to them.
Even the masts and the other wood
work will shortly be honeycombed
and weighted down by encrusting
forms.
If the reader could traverse the
field whereunto come the shot-riddled
ships OF Trafalgar, he would prob
ably be surprised at the little change
to be observed In the landscape.
Each wreck would most likely appear
as low mound of debris, in which it
would be difficult to trace the sem
blance of the stout craft which waged
the greatest sea fight of all times.
Ships of European peoples have
been for centuries finding their way
to the floor of the ocean. Probably
100000 vessels have met this fate
since the time when our race first be-
gan to spread throughout the world.
Yet by far the greatest part of these
have fallen upon the shadows near
the shore, where the swift currents
and rapidly moving debris are likely
to aid In their destruction and burial.
How quickly they disappear in
bhCoO SOhuAOAOho 10 JudSOO Oy
the experience of the diver who has
sought for sunken treasures. Almost
invariably, after hundred years or
so have passed, they find that the
craft is quite lost to sight. Far more
money has been spent in such ex-
plorations than has been won from
them.
Cautiously enough, the most per
manent records of mans empire of
the seas are being written IN the
ashes from the coal-fed fires of the
steamships. The waste is in its ma
ture indestructible, and the mass of
m aterial contributed in any one year
to the ocean bed is to be reckoned by
the million tons. In time all the
great ship routes will be paved with
this debris, which will be built upon
the rocks, to remain as the most en-
during physical monument of mans
sway upon this sphere.
