Y. Nj. {. A. Mass Meeting.

The Y. M. G. A. mass meeting at the
Grand Opera House last Sunday night
was a success for the young men. The
audience was large one. There were
but few vacant seats in the upper part
of the gallery and most of the stand
ing room in the body of the opera
house was occupied. The address by
Rev. o. HI. Holmes, the eloquent
young Cresco minister, was a earnest
plea for the young men, filled with
wit and logic. He said that the mer-
chants and all other business men were
careful to see that their property was
insured against loss, and showed in his
clear, clean cut way how it would pay
them financially to insure their boys
and young men against temptation by
having good place for them to spend
their evening. He also explained how
it would help the young men physical
ly, mentally and morally. The music
by the Y.M.C.A. Male Quartette added
much to the interest of the meeting.
The collection was $3.50; $50 of this
amount was given by one family. The
boys feel well pleased with the way
the people are beginning to support
this movement. They held business
meeting Monday night for the purpose
of organizing. 1t is hoped that the
business men of DEBORAH will give this
movement substantial support and
encouragement.

FIGHT PATENT MEDICINES
Four Hundred Chicago Druggists
VIII sell the Same Thing Under

Other Names.
CHICAGO, Feb. ia local paper says:
A factory for the making of medes
similar in nature to the propr tary
medicines now on the market is to be
started by Chicago retail druggists
A majority of the city pharmacists are
interested, and they hope to drive the
patent medicine makers from the field.
Hereafter when man wants a dose to
"cure that headache" and asks for the
remedy usually taken, his druggists will
tell him that he would much better take
something not only "just as good" but
scientifically better, because it has bee n
compounded by committee of physi-
clans and druggists of the highest repu-
tation. The same thing will be told the
man who wants a blood purifier, or "a
plaster.
More than 400 retail druggists of Chi
cago, have combined to fight in practi-
cal way, the cutting of the prices of
drugs, and medicines by department
stores, and to bat, at the same time
the sale of medicines by the manufac-
turers and wholesalers to these stores.
The retail druggists have recently
formed the United States Pharmaceutical
association and issued stock to the
amount of $4,000. almost all of which
has been taken up by the prominent
pharm acists of this city.
The formation of the company was the
outcome of a recommendation made by
the Illinois Pharmacist associ-
alton; the members of that
association said nothing could be done to
check the cutting in prices and that the
druggists must strike out for themselves
and enter the field as manufacturers.
AS Il result $50 of the retailers of Chi
cago met and formed company. In two
weeks more than $50 Chicago names
have been added to those of the organ
izers and from the state at large 100 more
have come.

LEwELLING CAN'T GET IT

Even Admitting That He Wants the
Nomination, Says Jerry simpson.
From the State Journals Special Correspondent
WASHINGTON, Feb 15.-Jerry Simp-
son left here yesterday to make a few
speeches in Delaware. From there he
will go to Hammond, Ind, and from
there back to Kansas.
he says he has had a good time in
Washington, and he tells all the old
members who shook hands with him
that he is feeling well.
He says of course that he believes the
Populists will win in Kansas, but his
statements lack the force of great. con-
fdence and indicate that while he thinks
they have a good show there is great I'M
certainty. The result, he believes, will
depend greatly on the kind of platform
the Republicans adopt at St. Louis.
He does not believe that Governor
Lewelling will be renominated by the
Populis:s. "Lewelling can't get
the denomination of the party" said
Jerry. This was of course granting
that he wanted it.
Jerry feels confident of defeating Con-
gressman Long in the Seventh district.
at will be a close fight and hard fight
but believe l can win," he said. II am
going to challenge him for a series of
joint discussions. He challenged me
last time. but l was physically unable to
accept because I was sick. Then | only
made few short speeches by myself.
Now 1 am ready for a joint discussion
and will give him all he wants.

NEW YORK, Feb 15.-Zimmerman s.
Forshay have withdrawn 100000 in
gold coin from the sub-treasury. Gold
deposits up to II 80 a. N. emounted to
$1.100,00Q
Assistant Treasurer Conrad Jordan said
today that he had received no instruc-
tions from Washington regarding the
disposition to be made of the bonds not
rests entIrely with Secretary Carlisle, he
said.
Bullion dealers report that business in
gold and greenback today was nominal,
as they prefer to clean up old transact

At the subtreasury it is stated that an
official report of the total gold deposits
on account of the complexion of the first

ment bond issue will not be ready
until late this afternoon. 1t is
understood that report of the deposits
with the eight government repositories
in this city will be received by Assistant
Secretary Jordan. and this information
will also be given out. In general way
it is believed that aggregate de-
posits to date will be found to
cover one half of the entire

officials express the opinion that very few
of the subscrip ptions have been defaulted
on.
The deposits and Withdrawals of gold

earned praise from Paul H. Havne and
others. Her latest contributions to

attention of Col. A. NJ. Holbrook, then
proprietor of the Picayune, who offered
her position on the paper, which she
accepted. She became his wife, and

and Archangel He knew OF no way in
which news of Nansen's approach to the
mouth of the Lena delta should also reach
Archangel.
With the aid of a chart General
Greedy indicated the vast distance
between Archangel and Irkutsk, the
latter point being that where the first
report OF DR.. Nansen's return started. He
showed that if it was really true that
news of DR.. Nansen's movements had
reached the mouth of the Lena
and he had worked up the
river to Irkutsk, then it was
improbable that the same informa-
ton could have reached Archangel.
Then there was the same lack of detail
about this last dispatch that had been

Opportunity For Topeka People to See

There are actors and actors on the
American stage-but only one Richard
Mansfield. He stands head and shoulders
above any American actor, if not any in
the world, in his ability to portray the
subtler variations of character and to
move and thrill by the pathos, ond tidel-
ity of his acting. His Beau Brummel
in the play of that name and his Baron
Chevreul in "A Partisan Romance" the
English fop of courtly grace and man

mains brought home? No; she went
Immediately to her lawyer and said
Wells was working d new ruse on her.
Wells is working in Kansas City. Mrs.
Wells received letter from him a few
days ago saying she would never again
see him alive, but that did not arouse
her sympathies, and now she thinks he
has sent this in order to persuade her to
rush to Kansas City and drop her divorce
suit.
The last time Mrs. Wells saw her
husband he was threatening to kill her
with g knife.
Today's Kansas City papers contain
no account of Wells being run over.

Days Set For Holding Them All over
the Stale at Oace.

Before adjurning this afternoon the
PopuIist state central committee recon-
mended that the Populist county conven-
tions be held on the same day all over the
state.
March IA was recommended as the day
for holding the county conventions for
electing delegates to the Hutchinson
convention and August 1 as the day for
selecting delegates to the nominating
convention at Abilene.
Each county is asked to designate one
of its delegates to the Hutchinson con-
vention as an appellate court committee
man and the delegates so designated are
requested to get together on that occa-
sion and organize the machinery necss-
sary to nominate candidates for judges
in the six appellate court districts
