Santa Fe to Equip All Passen'
ger and Dining Coaches
With Electric Lights Within
the Next Month.
NEW YORK EXPERTS
In Topeka Now, Doing the
Work Required.
Electric Headlights for Loco
motives Not a Success.

Within the next month all Santa Fe
first-class passenger coaches, chair cars
and dining cars will be lighted by cleo
tricity instead of by oil lamps and
Pintch gas as at present. A force Of
wOrkmen from New York city are now
placing the electric equipment on the
cars at the old Sixth street roundhouse
in this city.
The electricity will be generated by
the movement of the cars, and practi-
cally the only expense will be that at
tending the original equipment of the
cars and the cost of keeping the dyn-
amos and other apparatus in order.
While not as cheap as lighting by oil
lamps, it will be cheaper than Pintch
gas, and will give the best light possi-
BILE on railway cars.
The work of equipping the cars is
being done by the National Car Elec-
trio Lighting company of New York
After the work is completed several of
the workmen now in the city will re-
main here and look after the repairing
and care of the equipment.
Cars are being turned out of the old
roundhouSe as rapidly as possible, and
as soon as one car is sent out another
is sent in to take it's place. 1t is be-
neVed that within the next month all
the frst-class coaches, chair cars and
dining cars will carry electric equip

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, but Safe and Eff
fectUal Cure for 1t.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to incurab BILE.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat-
ing sensation after eating, accompanied
sometimes, with sour or watery ris-
ings, a formation of gases, causing
pressure on the heart and lungs and
difficult breathing; headaches. tickle ap-
petite, nervousness and a general play
ed out, languid feeling.
There is often a foul taste in the
mouth, coated tongue and if the inter
ior of the stomach could be seen it
would show a shiny, inf1amed condi-
tiOn.
The cure for this common and obsti-
nate trouble is found in a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate
mucous surfaces of the stomach To
secure a prompt and healthy digestion
is the one necessary thing to do and
when normal digestion is secured the
catarrhal condition Will have disap-
peared.
According to DR.. Harlanson the safest
and best treatment is to use after each
meal a tablet, composed of Deastase,
Aseptic Pepsin, a little NuX, Golden
Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can
now be found at all drug stores under
the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's and not being a patent medicine
can be used with perfect safety and as
surance that healthy appetite and
thorough digestion will follow their
regular use after meals.
Mr. n. J. BOOher of 2710 Dearborn St,
! Chicago. ILL.,, writes: "Catarrh is a To-
cal condition resulting from neglected
cold in the head, whereby the lining
membrane of the nose becomes infiam-
ed and the poisonous discharge there
from passing backward into the throat
| reaches the stomach, thus producing
, catarrh of the stomach. Medical auth
! critics prescribed for me for three
years for catarrh of stomach without
/ cure, but today 1 am the happiest of
men after using only one box of Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets, cannot find
appropriate words to express my good
| feeling. I have found flesh, appetite
and sound rest from their use.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the SAT
| est preparation as we'll as the simplest
| adm most convenient remedy for any
/ form of Indigestion, catarrh of stomach,
| biIiousness sour stomach, heartburn
/ and bloating after meals.
Send for little book, mailed free on
| stomach troubles, by addressing Stuart

NOT DRUNK, BUT STARVING
a Well Educated Young Man Whose
Pride Forbade Him to Beg.

Troy, Nov. 3-A haggard but hand
some young man staggered into a po-
lice station house last night, clutched
the rail before the sergeant's desk and
would have fallen to the floor had he
not been caught by an officer
The man is drunk, put him in a.
CELL said the sergeant.
'Oh, no, no! I'm not drunk. I'm dying
of starvation" gasped the man. Il
have not had a meal in four DAYS "
The man said he was William Clark,
of Cambridge, Mass. He was taken
down to the lodgers' room. AS he en-
tered it, Clark saw a moIdy biscuit in a
corner.
Bread! Bread!" he screamed, pounc-
ing upon the dirty bit of food like an
animal.
The biscuit was too hard to bite. so
he soaked it in water. One mouthfuI
of the biscuit sent him to the floor in
convulsiOns. His agony was frightfuI.
He was received and fed, and this
morning he was strong enough to leave,
the station house. Clark told an Off
Ger that he had been tramping around
the country looking for work He ap-
peared to be finely educated He said
rather than beg he had been living up
on scraps of food that even the dogs
had refused.

ELMDALE BANK ROBBERY.
w. H suppe Bound Over to the Dis
trict Court in Chase County.

Galena, Nov. 3.-W. H. Suppe, who
had his preliminary examination at
Cottonwood Falls last Saturday upon
the charge of being connected with the
robbery of a bank at Elmdale, Chase
county, was bound over to the March
term of the district court in the sum
of 81. 500 Mr.. Suppe quickly gave
bond and returned to Galena last night.
The incident that led to his arrest, it
will be remembered, was peculiar. a
$50 bill had been torn into two parts by
the robbers, and one part was left in
the bank. The part left was sent to
the treasury department by the cashier
for redemption. with a statement as to
the cause of its condition. On the
same day it arrived in Washington the
other portion of the bill was received
from a bank in Galena, with a letter
asking for redemption. The banks
We're at once informed by the treasury
officials and it was found that the pOr-
tion of the bill coming from Galena
had been given to the bank by Suppe.
Suppe claims that he bought it from a
party whom he does not know.

CATHOLIC DIOCESE
Bishop Hennessy:: Makes Several
Changes From Financial Reasons.

Bishop Hennessy: Makes Several
Changes From Financial Reasons.
Abilene, Nov. 3.-The new arrange
ment of the Kansas diocese of the
Catholic church has affected Abilene
priests.
About ten years ago Kansas was di-
Vided into three diOceses-one at Leav-
enWOrth, one at ConcOrdia and one at
Wichita. At that time Kansas was on
it's boom, and the dioceses were form
ed according to wealth, resources and
population. The boom failed and ev-
erything began to shrink. This left
this diocese rich and the dioceses of
Wichita and ConcOrdia poor The Wich-
ita diocese became so poor that Bishop
Hennessy had to support it through his
own personal efforts.
Bishop Hennessy having charge of
the two diOceses-COncOrdia and Wich-
ita-thOUght it was no more than right
to have a little of the fat with the lean,
and he asked to have the rich counties
of southern Kansas taken from the
LeavenwOrth diocese and added-tO his.
The pope so ordered it, and there has
been several changes made. Father Nc
Namara will work in southwest Kan
sas and Father Shields, in addition to
looking after St. Andrews church, will
officiate at the college and several out
side parishes.

FIVE YEARS TOO SHORT
For the Railroads to Equip Cars With
Automatic Couplers.

Peoria, Ill, Nov. 3-The law which
passed congress March, 1898, and was
signed by President Harrison, requiring
all railroads in the United States to
equip cars with automatic couplers
and power brakes, goes into effect Jan.

It is stated at headquarters of the
brOtherhoOds in this city that none of
the railroads has fully complied with
the provisions of the law, and they have
made application, which they are per
mitted to do by the terms of the law
for extension of time. This will be
heard by the interstate commerce COM
mission in Washington on December L
All the five railroad brotherhoods will
be represented there by the executive
heads, so that they may look after the
interest of the railroad employees under
the law.

HOME FOR THE TOILER.
Miss Willard Plans a Noble Palace
for Workingmen.

Buffalo, N Y, Nov al have ded-
icated this 18th year of my life to the
raising Of the indebtedness of the Wo-
mans Temple.
I mean as well, on my return to
Evanston, my old home. to have built
there a palace home for workingmen.
1 think I shall be kept busy with those
two projects"
So spoke Frances Willard last even
ing resting in an easy chair in the old
home of MiIlard Fillmore, once presi-
dent of the United States.
once the Temple is safe, Miss Will
ard wishes to establish in Evanston a
workingman's home-a palace home, as
she calls it
She added: 1--WE have in Evanston
it ought to be called Heavenston-
clubs and social organizations for ev-
erything under the sun but the social
needs of the workingmen.
The workingman, free from his toll,
mas no Where to go outside of his own
home to meet his fellow man in pleas
ant conversation. l want a club build
ing to be erected for him, not as pre-
tentious as the Woman's Temple but
a nne, permanent place. want it to
be fitted up nicely and to be given to
him to care for to enjoy, to be a refuge
from the saloons of the city and other
places of evil resort. I believe I can
bring this about. I shall try it
Now, what 1 want, what I am going
to work for as soon as I return to
Evanston, just as quick as I get settled
for the building of a workinglnen's club
house right in my home town.
There is money enough there to
erect it, and I think the people have on
ly to be asked, to have the thing
brought before them in the proper light
to see that it would be a great thing
for Evanston as we'll as giving much
joy to the intelligent men who will
make up its membership.
I have not in mind the erection of
any building as expensive as the Tenn
pie was. No extraordinary amount of
money will be required. But the real
philanthropy of the age is to be found
in the deeds of men while they live to-
ward their fellow men. 1t is caring for
the good of each other that constitutes
genuine philanthropy today.
I'VE have in Evanston ample proper
ty locations on which the kind Of a club
house 1 want can be erected. The city
has been beautifully improved and fur
nishes the finest kind of surroundings
for such a club house. The ground once
acquired, we have then to secure the
funds for building. Just what the plans
for the building will be cannot be said
now.

present, and details must be supplied

EGGS HIGH AT TACOMA.
Alaska Demand Makes Them Worth
80 Cents Per Dozen,

Tacoma, Nov 3.-Eggs are scarce and
high partly because the Alaska demand
is greater than it has ever been before,
so that the dealers are pressed to sup
ply the demand.
Cold storage eggs are being shipped
in from Iowa and Minnesota to a limi-
ted extent but these ventures are al
ways attended with a good deal of haz-
ard, and cOnsignOrs are wary about
making any heavy shipments.
OUTGOING steamers for Alaska this
week left with orders for eggs only
about half filled, and this condition of
the trade is likely to continue through
the winter.
Strictly fresh eggs are worth in Ia
coma today 80 cents a dozen.

The officials of the mechanical de-

believe, however, that within the next
two years, all Santa Fe engines will be
