While the firm has been very persistent

tainly indicates that Piso's Cure for Con-

the cure has doubtless contributed matcri-

More Infected Cattle.

Topeka Capital.
During the past few months the
State Live Stock Sanitary Cimmis-
sion have had little or no difficulty
with shippers who have been coming
into Kansas with their cattle, as they
have besn careful to observe the quar-
antine regulations.
John |. Brown, one of the members
OF the commission, has just returned
from Caldwell, where he was called
by the report that infected cattle
were being shipped into that vicinity
by cattlemen from the territory. The
report was true and Mr.. Brown
brought to Topeka few samples of
the ugly, repulSive and dangerous
ticks which are the chief indication
and cause Of splenic fever. The local
cattlemen at Caldwell were verymuch
exercised concerning the shipment,
but their fears were displaced by the
order issued by Mr.. Brown. He gave
notice to the owner, R. Berry, that he
must Immediately ship the cattle
from Kansas or slaughter them in the
yards. When he left Caldwell no
action had been taken, but he feels
confident that his order will be obey.
ed because of the fact that it was also
served upon the agent of the Rock
Island, which shipped the cattle from
Fort Reno, where they have been
pasturing during the summer. In
addition to ordering the cattle out Of
the state, Mr.. Brown instructed the
representatives Of the Rock Island to
see that the proper placards were plac-
ed on the cars prOclaiming that the
cattle were infected and that they
were shipped from without the quar-.
antine line.

Christian EndeaYOrers.

Boston, July l2.-ThOusands of del
egateS to the Christian Endeavor to
night attendel three mass meetings
in Mechanic hall and tents EndeavOr
and WilliStOn. Unwearied by the fer
vor Of the huge morning meetings in
these centers, not tired by the earnest
noon rallies in different places where
congregate the tOilers of Boston, and
unSatiSfed with the announcement
gained at the fifteen general commit
tee meetings this afternoon, the
Christian people gathered 25,OOO
strong at the big meetings at the
great auditOriums of Mechanic hall
and tents EndeavOr and Williston.
At Mechanic hall the address of
Rev. A. c. Dixon, D. D., of Brooklyn,
attracted thousands, while other
thousands were drawn to tent Willis
ton by the announcement of an ad-
dress by Rev. Henry Montgomery of
Belfast, one Of the Ecclesiastical tri.
umvirate of European fame-Spurgeon
and Montgomery and Brown. Penn
sylVanians were partial to Mechanic
building because Rev. J. r. McGreary.
ID. d., of Pittsburg, widely and favor
ably known throughout the Keystone
state, was one of the speakers.
Among other good speakers at the En-.
deavor tent was Rev. He'll Delk of
HagerstOwn, Maryland, whose subject
was 1.-THE Centrally of Christian Eel
lowship."
At the tents Endeavor and Willis
ton, the fve-minute meetings of the
EndeavOrerS from the four corners Of
the earth, constituting that part of
Une program designated 1.-THE Parlia-
ment OF Nations" were both encour-
aging and instructive, and at the 3
O'Clock meeting the presentation of a
banner to local union for the best
work in promoting local fellowship
was a prominent incident.
The other speakers tonight were
greeted with the warmth that has un-
interruptedly been the spirit of the
convention, and especially does this
apply to the report of the senior
mothers, or parents society, which
was given at Mechanic hall. by Rev.
W. Kinney Of Syracuse, N. Y. This
is comparatively a new feature of the
EndeavOr society and its increase, as
Indicated in the reports, produced
marked enthusiasm.

is one of the men who was legislated

and he proposes to make a test case
out Of it if he can get it before the
supreme court Of the state. His sa,a-
ry stops with the expiration of his
term in January Of next year, but his
JUDICIAL duties cease in October this

occupy the bench in that district
after that time. The question is a
complicated one and should be settled
