 There are reasons for 1t.

 He used common sense, and found that disease or health came to the body through the stomach.
 He scientifically compounded stomach medicine from the harmless products of nature.

AyEROBBING IN IOWA.
An Iowa Doctor Studied Anatomy From

An Iowa Doctor Studied Anatomy From
the Remains of a Relative.
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Jan. 1.-The par
ticulars have just been made public in
regard to the robbing of the grave of
Mrs. Amanda Hannah, at Vinton. in the
petition for damages which has been
brought against several persons who are
charged with completely in the affair,
are of nature to do honor to the most
sensational yellow back literature. john
Hannah, prior to the spring of 1871,
lived in Vintor, with his family. His
wife was a woman of culture, and very
beautiful Her maiden name was Aman-
da Duncan. In the spring of 1871 she
died, after brief illness, and was bur-
led in what was then known as the Ma
plewood cemetery.
As years passed by the memory of the
wife and once beautiful girl was all that
remained to recall her existance, and
naturally when the announcement was
made few days ago that Wesley G.
sion, i'm plicating a number of prominent
citizens in the robbing of her grave, a
decided sensation was created.
A letter has been received from DR.,
Christie, who studied medicine under
DR.. Griffin. and who is nephew
of the woman whose body was
removed from the grave, in which
ne states tnaL ne reme N DerS QeQ-
nitely that during the time he was study
ing Nc edicine the bones of a woman were
in the doctors Office, and that they were
used by the doctor in illustrating various
points in surgery and physiology. Little
did he dream at that time that he was
handling the body of his own aunt, yet, if
the story told by Cummings is true such
was the case. A suit for $4,000 damages
has been brought in the Benton county

into a little sitting room on the other side
of the hall, and there, in a soft black
gown and gazing motionlessly out of the
window, sat Linda Marmont.

choking voice, 'don't startl Oh, you

both her hands in his as she stood startled

Linda Marmont was married.

an unacknowledged attraction toward

HORSES DOOMED.
Gen. Miles Studying tho Utility of Horse
less Vehicles for Army Use.


WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-Gen. Miles is
now making study of the horseless ve-
hicle with view to determining its
utility in army use. The idea is to use
it for the army trains. At each of its
forty-one military posts our army en-
ploys two or more wagons. prescribed by
the quartermaster general The larger,
the six mule wagon, is for transporting
army supplies to and from railroad alta
tions on the frontier posts. The other,
known as the escort wagon, is pulled by
two or four mnles, 1t is used in the
more thickly settled regions, for the
same purpose, as we'll as for official err
rands. Those wagons have been used in
the army since the war, with but little
alteration. The horseless vehicle, if
feasible, would be a big improvement
over them. Besides, it would be great
saving.
Our small army of 25, coo men employs
$500 horses and mules for uses of the
cavalry and artillery and for general
drafting purposes. The average cost of
these for the last fiscal year, for instance,
ranged from 500 to $16S each, the caval-
ry horses costing the least, even less
than the government mules, and draft
horses the most.

PRICE COMES DOWN TO 81.
i'TriIby'' Will Be Played at the
Grand
At REGULAR PRICES OF THE HOUSE

Owing to the General Protest Voiced
by the ssJOurnaI''-What the Atchi-
son Globe Says IF the Piece.
Manager LIN. Crawford announces
on his own responsibility today that the
prices for the 'sTrilby" performance Sat
urday night will be the regular 81 scale
This is right. Now Topeka people can
go to see the performance feeling that
they are not being imposed on. They will
not be asked to pay $3.50 as first an
nounced, owing to the vigorous opposi-
ton and condemnation the proposed per-
petration of such an outrage met with.
When an acknowledged star visits TOpe-
ka people are perfectly willing to pay
81 so and 81, but all others should play
for the regular house prices.
The Atchison Globe says of the per-
formance, which was given there Mon
day night:
"a better balanced dramatic company
has never been seen in Atchison; there
il some one in charge who has surprising
good taste. In the first act 'Gecko' is
simply an awkward Italian fiddler, play-
ing engagements with 'Svengalia,' the
pianist He develops later into one of
the best actors ia the cast. This is true
also of 'Zou Zou,' who appears in
the second act in an insignificant charLc-
act The Laird on his first appearance is
an uninteresting Scotchman, but he de-
velops naturally and easily into a great
favorite with the audience Little Billee
does not look like an actor, but rather
like boy, as he should look. Edith
Crane. who appeared as Trilby, is the liv-
ing image Of Mary Anderson, and has all
of her methods, as well as her voice
and figure. Her maniac laugh in the
third act sent cold chiIIs down the backs
of the oldest theatre goers. Every mem
Der of the company looked the part as
sumed, from 'Trilby' to the grisettes
who attended the Christmas party in the
studio.
THE 'Svengalia' of Harry c. Carleton
was exquisitely horrible; his death in
the third act, where he falls over a ia BILE,
with his head lying downward toward
the audience, was horrible, but it was
well DONE"

Political developments during the
past few weeks have not been encour-
aging to President Cleveland, as that
parsonage is now convinced that the
silver men will control the Chicago
Democratic Convention. The recent
struggle in Kentucky and the brilliant
prospects for silver all over the land
have almost settled his high hopes
and aspirations, and now that it is
conceded that Georgia will join the
silver ranks in Chicago the man OF
destiny is doomed to disappointment.
Secretary Smith who recently return
ed from the west, says the silver
sentiment throughout the west and
on the Pacific Coast is so overwhelm
ing that no man or party can stand
against it.

Hudson Fishing Suits.

Some few years ago some parties
mostly from st. Paul. bought or
leased, the lands adjoining the Viii
low River above the city of Hudson
and organized the Willow River
Club. The river flowing over theil
land has been well supplied with fish
from the state hatchery and the fish
ing on this particular portion OF the
stream has been exceedingly good
The deposit of fry was made princl
pally, or wholly, before the club OBJ
tanned possession OF the premises
For the last year the club has under
taken to exercise exclusive ownership
of not only the land which it possess
SIS but of the river bed as well. This
has been contested by numerous
parties who have insisted on going
into the stream and following it down
through the lands Of the club tor the
purpose of fishing. Numerous law,
suits have been the result. In some
of these the club has sued for the
value of the fish; in others the tres1
pass upon it's lands. In all cases for
the value of the fish we are informed
the club has been defeated. Several
cases for trespass to the real est ate
were brought before Justice Ensign o.
this city, but in all of them the de
PENDANTS admitted that they crossed
the lands or the club on their way to
the stream, and on advise of their
attorneys rendered Judgment for
nominal damages, six cents, and costs s,
These cases did not in any manner
involve the rights OF parties to follow
the river bed and catch fish. On that
point the public right was declared by
a decision OF Judge Bundy last fall
which must be considered the law
until reversed by the supreme court,
where the case has been taken on
appeal. No one claims that anglers
have a right to tramp all over a
mans farm, because a stream hap
pens to flow across it. All that is
maintained is that the public has
rights in the public streams of the
state which can never bemonopolized
by private ownership; that the
streams are public highways, and
that the state in stocking these
streams at the cost of The taxpayers
did SO for the general public and not
for the satisfaction OF private owners
or sportsmen's clubs. This is the
purport of Judge Bundy \ decision
and seems to be a reasonable expo
sition OF the law.
