COWBOYS REUNION.
Unique Celebration by Knights of the
Lariat and Broncho.

Seymour, Tex, Aug. 6.-The reunion
of the Association of Cowboys, the most
unique celebration ever held in the
southwest, opened here yesterday. Sew
eral hundred ex-knights of the lariat
and brOncho have assembled from all
over the west and northwest Texas,
clad in their picturesque garb of the
old ranching days.
Their appearance is remindful of the
times when the cowman was king of
the plains.
More than 500 unbroken bronchos
have been brought in from the noun
tains of King, Knox and Cattle coun-
ties, and the riding of the fiery buck
ing steedS will be the most entertaining
of the strictly original programme that
has been arranged for the three days
meeting.
Fully 10000 visitors are already here,
most of them coming in vehicles of
every conceivable style known to the
plains country.
These camps compose the most novel
communities ever assembled in this
any other town of the COW country.
White hats with broad brimS cover
men wearing high heeled and high top
ped boots, with the conventional spurs,
and belts holding the conspicuous old
time navy skies.
At II o'clock the opening parade
through the city took place. The pro-
cession was a typical cowboy and
plainsman's turnout, and every feature
of life on the plains was represented.
"A barbecue Qlnner was discussed by
the thousands of visitors in a large oak
grove from 1890 to 2 p. m.
AT 2:3O the special parade of 400 Com
anche Indians in tribal regalia, includ-
ing blankets, feathers, tomahawks,
pipes, war clubs, etc, took place in the
grove and was the most successful in
cident of the kind ever witnessed in
Texas.
The old rebel yell" wasn't in it with
the whooping and shouting that char
acterized the march of the red men
from the reservations of Oklahoma

BIG LENS is IN DANGER.
Electric Line to be Built Close to the
Yerkes Glass at Geneva.

Chicago, Aug. 6.-Astronomy and cleo
trio railroads threaten to clash near
the shores of Lake Geneva: More
sparks are expected to flash when rail-
road ma gnates and the faculty at the
Yerkes observatory meet than will be
seen on the trolley that will run be
tween Harvard and the lake. The fac
uIty has been on the defensive for a
long time in the matter of railroads, in
fact ever since the location for the big
telescope was proposed, but it is said
that it had been Outwitted.
For some years there has been talk
of granting a franchise for an electric
railroad between Harvard and Geneva
lake, passing through the villages of
Bigfoot, Walworth and FOntana to the
lake. Promoters have been interested
in the scheme, but concessions demand
ed have frustrated the plans.
When the Yerkes observatory was To-
Gated at Geneva lake the scheme bios
sOmed out again, and now the town of
Harvard has granted franchise ex-
tending over so years to a capitalist at
home and others in Chicago. The plans
call for an electric railroad from Har-
ward to Geneva lake, eleven miles
II is at the Geneva lake end Of the
line that the astronomers have become
interested. The scheme has become a
nightmare to Director Hale, and Prof.
Barnard sees visions of great labor and
the expenditure of $500 900 come to
naught. He predicts disaster for the
expected accomplishments of the big
lens, and sees nothing but ruin facing
the score Oh Q6llCaIe scat
tered throughout the observatory as
soon as the trolley wire is strung along
the highway to the lake. The arc lights
which will be scattered all along the
line will set the Vistas of the far-off
regions in the sky into too pale a relief
for accurate observations, and as for
the effect of the vibrations caused by
the cars, they will play havoc with the
seismometers and kindred instruments.
Those are the bright prospects which
confront the scientists in the astronom-
zeal adjunct of the University of Chi
cago. So little is known of the ulti-
mate scheme of the promoters that the
astronomers have not yet had time to
formulate their plans. The street rail-
road will be built with the hope that
people will travel to view the glOries of
the big telescope. The observatory au-
thOrities may foreStall this by shutting
the eXpectant public out of the entire
building. Then the road would also
serve as connecting link between the
Northwestern railroad at Harvard and
the branch that terminates at Williams
Bay. The only highway leading to
Williams bay runs Immediately back
of the observatory, and the combina-
ton of a ground current, the light and
vibration would practically make the
observatory useless

of gold and silver the same as their

The first public intimation that DR..
Andrews had passed beyond the posi-
ton occupied by all international BIZ
metallists and believed that this coun-
try would re-esta blish the free coinage
of silver at 16 to 1 with gold without
waiting for an international agreement
Brightly or wrongly, he firmly believes
that other nations would follow our ex-

lism would be thereby esta blished) twas
by the publication in June, 1886, of
private letter written by DR.. Andrews
to an alumnus of the Brown universe
ty. who had written him, asking his
opinion.
Another private letter. stating the
same views and written in answer to
inquiry from another alumnus of
the college was published later in the
summer.
'Of the publication of this letter, DR..
Andrews did not know until told by the
writer a few days ago. These were the
only sources of public knowledge of
President Andrews advocacy of free
coinage of silver by this country alone

SUBSTANTIAL WORK.
The Best Way to Heat Your Build
ings Next Winter.

The work of the steam heating de-
partment of the Edison Electric Light
and Illuminating company is progress
ing rapidly. The laying of the under
ground pipes and conduits is of a most
substantial character. This can be
well seen just now at Sixth and Kansas
avenue, where the excavations are go
ing on. The pipes are encased in huge
wooden tubes to act as non-conductors
and prevent the escape and waste of
heat.
The work goes ahead, rapidly and the
street is left in good condition after
the pipe is laid. The mains will cross
Kansas avenue at Sixth and and be
extended south this year on the east
side of the avenue to Seventh street
and possibly to Eighth if contracts foT
heating are secured in that territory.
The cost of steam is rs cents per foot
of radiation for the heating season. A
foot of radiation is one tube in any
binary radiator of pipe constructions
cast iron radiators run about five feet
for each section. The cost may also
be estimated on a basis of $3.50 per
thousand cubic feet of space in the av-
erage store or office building. The
heating of an inside store room Of 25x75
would cost about $50 For further
particulars call on c. r. Maunsell, su
perintendent of the Edison plant.

COLOR LINE
Causes the Resignation of Ten
Deputy Revenue Collectors.

Atlanta, Ga, Aug. 6.-Henry A. Rucker,
the new negro collector ofinternal revenue
went into office last night with rather
unusual ceremonies. When he met with
his predecessor to effect the transfer of
the office he found large gathering of
deputies, who presented Mr.. Tammel with
a very handsome silver service. Speeches
were made, closing with one by Rucker,
whose temperate tone and fair words,
pleased his hearers.
Realizing the embarras sments ahead Of
him. he asked the support of all the
deputies and assured them they should
have his long as they were in the SER
vice. Today about ten of the deputy col
lectors, sent in their designations and
went out with their white chief.

DEFENDS ANDREWS.
A Providence Republican Says He
Has Been Misrepresented

Boston, Aug. 6.-An open letter to the
Boston Herald by Mr.. Henry B. Gard
ner, one of the most prominent Re
publfcans and conspicuous of Brown
alumni of Providence, in which he viz
tually charges the members of the
Brown university trustees who forced
President Andrews to resign with will
fully disappearing Dr. Andrews DO
Sltlon, has added fuel to the flames
OF controversy which has set all New
England in a blaze.
Mr.. Gardner says:
1t Will be recalled that the commit
tee of the corporation in their letter
10 DR.. Andrews laid stress exclusively
upon the PRONUNCIATION by him of his
views in regard to the free coinage of
silver.
In view of this statement by the
committee it is not perhaps unnatural
that it should be generally taken for
granted that DR.. Andrews has actively
promulgated the doctrine that the Uni
ted States should undertake alone, the
free coinage of silver at the ratio of
and many individuals have based their
comments upon such a conception of
the facts. Such a conception is, howev-
er, entirely erroneous.
First, in regard to the teaching in
the college DR.. Andrews does not teach
political economy and the associate
professor who does all the teaching in
that department is not a believer in
try alone. In addition to the presiden-
cy, DR.. Andrews holds the professor
ship of moral and intellectual philoso-
ply.
In the course on ethics taught by
him various questions of social ethics
are touched upon, among them the ele-
ments entering into the determination
of a just standard of value. The dis
cussiOn of the policy of the free coin
age Of silver forms no part of these
courses, and there has been no pro-
mitigation of free silver views.
AS regards the presidents attitude
outside the college, there is the great
est miScOnceptiOn among even those
who would be expected to be best ac-
quainted with the facts. We may take
as an example of this misconception the
statement of an alumni of Brown in a
letter to the Providence Journal, that
'Dr. Andrews has for years, by books
by magazine, by newspaper publication
and by public addresses. championed
the cause of the free coinage of sill
Yer on a basis that involved the par
tial reputation of honest obligations
This statement is absolutely incorrect
in every particular. Dr. Andrews has
never published a book, magazine arti-
Gle or letter and has never made a
speech advocating the free coinage of
silver by the United States. DR.. An
drewS has been for many years, like
the late Francis A. Walker, and other
economists of first rank, particularly in
Europe a strong believer in inter-
national bimetallism.
"A fundamental point in the argu-
ment for international bimetallism is
that it would make the market values

A GRAND FIRE SCENE
In Which the Famous Kansas
City POmpier Corps
Will Rescue People From a
Seven Story Structure.
To Be Given at the Fair Grounds Dur
ing the Fall Festival-Other
Festival News

Chief Hale's Pompier corps from
Kansas City will be in Topeka to par
ticipate in the Fall Festival. The Com
mittee of Fifteen last night closed a
deal that will insure the presence of
this famous fire corps.
The exhibition by the corps will be
given either Tuesday afternoon or
evening in front of the grand stand at
the fair grounds. Chief Wilmarth of
the Topeka fire department will super
intend the erection of a tower to repre-
sent a seven story building and the
work of rescuing people from the top
will be done before the thousands of
people who will be present.
Chief Hale says that the exercises by
the corps will require from one to two
hours and they will all be startling
The pompier ladders will be placed on
top of the tower and people will be res
cued by means of the life line.
This is the same delegation that Gre
ated a sensation in London by their
thrilling work
At the meeting of the committee last
night Mrs. Sutton communicated a
formal acceptance of the position of
Queen of the Festival.
The committee has agreed upon the
details of the contract for bringing the
Kansas National guard to Topeka. The
committee decided to not take the re-
SpOnS1bil1ty for furnishing the horses
for the Guard and a specific appropria-
ton will be made for that purpose.
ecute the contract and that will be done
at once.
In the discussion about securing horses
for the use of the officers Mr.. GreenWald
said: That is a matter that must be
arranged for at once. Last year mem
berS of the G. A. r. went to a livery
stable and hired horses and charged
the bill to the Committee of Fifteen and
the liveryman sent in a bill for 81 a day
for each horse. And strange as it may
seem that man refused to give a cent to
the Festival last year and he has also
refused to give a cent this year. His
name is Culp."
Capt. Phillips of the Topeka Battery
said that he was satisfied that horses
could be hired cheap from farmers.
President Fellows said it would be
better to allow the militia to furnish its
own horses and in accordance with the
suggestion motion to make a specific
appropriation was carried.
The committee on privileges was in

privileges at the fair grounds in bulk

FOR THE BABY.
A Valuable Hint to Every Father and
Mother.


There are two kinds of babies in the
world; the kind who have too little
nourishment and the kind who have
too much.
The first kind of babies starve be-
cause their stomachs are too weak to
digest the amount of food necessary for
their growth and healthful development
and the other kind are overfed with the
result that the delicate stomach and
intestines are infiamed and as every
mother knows, thousands of infants die
yearly when warm weather begins, from
stomach and bowel disorders.
Opiates, soothing syrups and ca
thartics however, mild, are not what is
demanded. Go to the root of the trou-
BILE, assist the cnild's digestion, give the
little stomach the aid necessary to
thoroughly and promptly digest its food
and the little one will thrive and grow
and gladden. the mothers heart.
To give perfect digestion to the child
it is only necessary to give in a pleas
ant form the harmless digestives con-
tanned in the well known tablets sold
in drug stores under the name of Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets. Stuart's Tab
lets contain no so called drugs, but are
composed of pepsin. pure aseptic, fruit
acids, starch digestives and are put up
in loZenge form, with sugar of milk,
very pleasant to the taste and have
been used for years as the safest, best
stomach troubles in adults, but recent
ly many remarkabl cures have been
made in the cases of weakly babies who
failed to grow and thrive as they
should.
A Buffalo mother a short time ago
who despaired of the life of her babe
was so delighted with the results from
giving the child these tabletS that she
went before the notary public of Erie
Co, N. Y, and made the following affi-
davit:
GentIenen.-Stuart, Dvsnensia Tab
lets were recommended to me for my
two months old baby, which was sick
and puny and the doctors said was suf-
fering from indigestion. 1 took the
child to the hospital, but there found no
relief. A friend mentioned the Stuart
Tablets and 1 procured a box from my
lozenges in the box and was delighted
to find they were just the thing for my
baby.
I feel justified in saying that Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets saved my chfld's life.
MRS. w. T. DETHLOPF.
Subscribed and sworn to before me
this 18th day of April, 1897
HENRY KARIS,
Notary Public in and for Erie Co., N. Y.
For babies, no matter how young or
delicate, the tablets will accomplish
wonders in Increasing flesh, appetite
tablets in every box. Full sized boxes
are sold by all druggists for so cents,
and no parent should neglect the use of
this safe remedy for all stomach and
bowel troubles if the child is ailing in
any way regarding its food or assinili-
ton.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets has been
known for years as the best preparation
for all stomach trOu bleS whether in
adults or infants
