Dyspepsia

The explanation is simple. 1t is found in
that impure blood which is contin-
ually feeding the nerves upon refuse
instead of the elements OF strength and

nerve compounds simply deaden and

why they start at every slight but

The Salt Trust Invades Kansas.

Hutchinson, Aug. 6.-The Michigan
Salt association, commonly known as
the salt trust, has at last decided to
invade the Kansas field, and will con-
StruCt a manufacturing plant at
Hutchinson with Il capacity of LOCO
barrels daily.
Joy Morton of Chicago, the general
sales agent of the trust, is engineer
ing the deal, and has just purchased a
tract of forty acres adjoining the city
as a site for the new works.
This new move means bitter fight
between the salt trust and the Kan
sas manufacturers for supremacy in
the territory west of the Missouri
river. Heretofore. excepting a few
short periods of contest, there has
been quasi agreement to some ex-
tent enforced by the railroads, that
the MissOuri,river should in general
way be the dividing line between the
Michigan and the Kansas salt manu-
faCturerS, the Kansas people in the
main supplying the packing houses at
Kansas City and Omaha.
Four years ago Morton came here
and purchased the Diamond" salt
plant, then owned by Ely & Easley,
and "bucked" the Kansas manufact-
urerS on their own ground for few
months, but finally abandoned the
field, because it was understood, the
Santa Fe and the Missouri Pacific
railroads gave the Kansas producers
such rebates in freight that he could
not compete. Now that his brother,
Paul Norton, Is vice president Of the
Santa Fe, it is understood that Joy
Morton believes he can have a fair
show at the trade.

iSfactOrily, and it has been found that
the cost of maintaining the light is
small. On straight track the head
light can be seen at distance Of six
miles, and the light is sufficiently
strong for the engineer to see another
train or any object on the track fully
a half mile ahead. In the glare of
the headlight a newspaper Can be
easily read at a distance of three
blocks.
Engine 472 is now running between
Topeka and st. Joe. and every night
crowds Of people assemble at the sta
tiOns along the line to view the head
light. At AtchisOn practically the
entire town turns out every night
about the time Of the arrival OF the
Santa Fe train.
The officials are well pleased with
the working of the headlight, and it
is probable that all night passenger
trains will be similarly equipped by
the first of the year.-Topeka Jour

The Memphis and Pittsburg & Gulf,
the only two roads which declined to
unite with the other lines when the
question was up at recent st. Louis
meeting, have now withdrawn their
opposition, and are willing to abandon
the carload for the weight system of
charging on live stock. Although
the roads did not favor the proposition,
inasmuch as they carry only about 10
per cent of the stock shipped in Kan
sas, they agreed to join with the other
lines in making the rates.
The great question now is, what
rates will be adopted by the roads,

Gliding to charge by weight, instead
of by carload, the Trans-MissOuri
lines have at the same time given
assurances to the representatives of
the live stock interests Of Kansas
City that the comparative rates to
the four great markets, Kansas City,
Chicago, Omaha and St. Louis, will
not be disturbed in any way.
1t will be week or two before all
the lines will be ready to put in the
new rates, as the PittSburg & Gulf
has not yet done anything toward
compiling the rates. As soon as The
tariffs are issued they will be closely
and carefully compared with the pres
ent rates. and if there be any increase
the live stock shippers of Kansas City
and the dealers of Kansas City will
appeal to the Kansas Board of Rail-

The New Gold Fields Of Alaska-A DreamIand
Of Wealth. ~

As it is now too late for those who
contemplate going to the Yukon gold
fields Of Alaska 10 start this year, a
company is already being formed to
start early next spIiDg. A steamer
has been secured and the company will
leave Puget Sound early in the month
OF March, 1898 arriving at the mouth
OF the Yukon river in time TO transfer
the party and supplies to a river
steamer, and be ready to go up the
river as soon as the lee breaks I'D.
The company will own its own steamer
and thus be able to 90, or stay, when
they like, and be able to land its party
in the Kloudyke country far ahead OF
any other party. Parties Joining the
company and going this way, have
many advantages, and it will not cost
any more than to go via Dyea route
and they save 500 miles OF very rough
overland travel. Frank l.. CrambtOn,
the well.knOwn newspaper man of
Mt. Vernon, Wash, is at the head Of
the enterprise, and parties intending
to go to the Yukon gold fields in the
spring should send him ten cents,
money or stamps, for full particulars,
maps, cOstsand necessary supplies for
one or two years trip.

Woodward News.
Report reached here yesterday eve
ming Of peculiar but horrible occur
renee such as has seldom been exper-
fenced. The lack of rain for nearly
four months and the intense heat of
the summer SOlStiCe has caused the
ground to glow like smelter furnace,
which the cool though short nights
have failed to moderate.
This condition caused the terrible
tale of suffering which resulted so
sadly to the family of Robert Belt,
who lives sixteen miles east of Wood
ward. The sudden and cOpiOuS shower
of rain which Unexpectedly fell on
the afternoon of the 9Th, filled a little
gully which ran under the modest
cabin home, in which Mr.. Belt, his
wife aud ones, and two Deighbors
were sheltered. The hot ground
Kissed wherever the drops fell, but no
rea! danger was anticipated. Sud
denly there was an explosion which
overturned the building, wOunding all
the occupants, and the little ones so
badly that it is feared they will die.
The explosion was caused by the
water, which ran under the house,
generating steam 50 rapidly it could
not escape and the house was wrecked.

Juneau Talks of Alaska.

yard 10 Wellington at the corner of
Harvey and jefferson avenues, and
who knows considerable about Alas
ka, is giving some good and timely
advice to people who are just now 60
ing wild over the KlOndike gold dis
cOveries. Mr.. Juneau is the founder
of the city Of Juneau, Alaska, and
spent many years in that country be.
fore coming to Wellington. He is
now located at Dodge City, this state.
Speaking of Alaska the other day, be
said:
Alaska is country full Of disap-
pOintmentS. Thousands OF people
who go there will be sadly disap-
pointed. They have no idea of the
many discomforts. The country is
covered with moss, vine that con-
tains prickles as sharp as the quilts OF
pOrcupine, with saw.like edges, with
the edges reversed or pointing to you.
These get into the flesh and stick
deep. These pricks with the back
barb break as you pail them out of
you flesh and a portion remains in the
fish. The only way to get them out
is to dig them out. The chigger is
nowhere in comparison to the moss
prick. Except where the water wears
the surface of the earth the country
is covered with moss. That is one of
the difficulties Of travel. Alaska is a
terrible country in which to exc out
an existence.
alaska is country on edge, it is
so mountainous. Basins are mainly
filled with ice. The weather is
always in great extremes. Where
there is no ice, there is moss and
devils club, the latter being a vine
that winds around everything it can
clutch. Persons walking become en-.
twined in network of moss and
devils club, and passage is extremely
difficult and tOrtuOuS. There is a
great store of precious minerals in
Alaska behind these almost impene-
trable barriers, with danger lurking
on every hand-in water, ice and
cold.
II helped to lay out the town of
Juneau inlSSl. | have been there three
times, the last time in 1885. My
cousin, Joseph juneau, discovered gold
there in company with man named
Harris. The place was for a time
called Harrisburg, but afterward
the name was changed to Juneau.
There was no law in the country then
and we adopted the Washington ter
rltOrial civil law and the United
States mineral laws. A man who
stole anything in that country was
hanged. Before that time the laws
had existed in name only. The min
ers adopted the laws and put them in
force. Alaska was in about the same
condition as No-Man'S.Land before it
was put into Oklahoma territory
The people had to agree to establish
law. 1t was so ordered and pro-
claimed. One feature Of the law was
that Chinese were to be excluded, and
that law holds good in juneau today.

country have not been Overdrawn;
hunger and cold will claim many MOI
victims, tut the hardShips and dan.
