LAUGHS AT DEATH.
A VIGOROUS CONSTITUTION DE-
MANDS KIDNEYS IN GOOD
CONDITION.
John Morrow, the Chemist, Offers, AT
ter Is Years of Research and Study,
the Only Scientifically Pre-
pared Kidney Tonic

Kidneys are nothing more nor less
than filters for the human body If they
are healthy, man has pure blood and
feels good; if they are puny and sick,
he must suffer the indescribable terrors
of sickness from It's miIdest form up
to it's most circulating horrors.
New body is continually taking the
place of old, and if the old body of cor
ruption and poison is not removed i'm
mediately, one cannot have pure blood
and a healthy eXistence-no vigorous
constitution can continue without
sound body, and no sound body can re-
main so without sound, healthy kid
neys.
When the system is run down, a
tonic must be taken, if one would get
we'll. There is no better or surer point
to begin than at the kidneys and there
is no sure health for the Kidneys ex-
cept through that well-tested, healing
tonic, Morrow's Kidneoids.
Moro Is KidneoidS are prepared sci
entifcalIy from remedial agents, tested
for their especial curative and tonic
action upon the Kidneys, and in such
proportions and arrangements as VIII
combine full strength with conven-
lent size. They are made in tablet
bic even to the most delicate stomach.
Take care of the kidneys and nine
tenths of all sickness will be avoided.
Don't let sickness creep in. There is no
cur from neglect. The human body
cannot stand for everything-it's a deli
cate affair and must have needful at
tentiOn and conSiderate action.
Among pure effective remedies none
hold so prominent place as Morrow's
Kfdneoids The first case of kidney
troubles they have not cured is IN
known. They are recognized as the
only fnfallible kidney remedy known to
the science Of medicine.
MOrrow's Kidneoids are now on sale
generally. If not to be had of your
dealer, they will be sent post paid upon
receipt of so cents per box or six boxes
for $3.50 by the Herb Medicine Co.,
Springfield, Ohio.

CUBAN FLAG TORN.
Hauled Down in ST. Louis-'EVive La
SPAIN Hoisted Instead.

St Louis, March 1S.-Ever since De-
cember Is, 1896, a Cuban flag has flown
from the old lamp post at the corner
of Ninth and Olive streets. No one in
st. Louis except the man who put it
there, knew who the patriotic Cuban
sympathizer was. Winds and rains
have destroyed several, but when one
was almost worn out another and
new one took its place. A few nights
ago some one tore the flag down and
inscribed on a board which he tied to
the post this inscription: ''Vive La
Spain"
This has revealed the identity of the
man who nailed the flag to the post. He
is Vernon B. Stevenson, a civil engi-
neer, with an office in a building direct
" across the street from the flag. To
an evening paper today he sent a note
addressed to the Spaniard containing
this:
L will meet you, you murderer, in any
bunch of willows within 20 miles of St.
Louis any hour of the "a I pledge you
my word as an American that I will
meet you alone. I will furnish a Cuban
flag, and if you want to get under the
lid of hi you attempt to tear that flag
up"
The letter was signed by Stevenson's
full name and his address. Stevenson
says that he means business, and if
the man who tore down the flag and
wrote the inscription on the board
wants to avenge a fancied insult on his
country he will be accommodated.

SORE ON WALL STREET
Gov. Leedy Thinks It is Master of the
Whole Spanish Situation

ct don't expect to be asked by Presi-
dent Mckinley or the secretary of war
to furnish single militiaman or voiun-
teer for the United States army, and
would be surprised if received such
request
This is what Governor Leedy said to-
day when asked if he has received any
advise from the war department rela-
tive to troops from Kansas.
Continuing Governor Leedy said:
wall street and the corporations
have been trying to increase the army
to 100, 900 men ever since the Chicago
strike trouble and in my opinion the
bill introduced for such an increase in
the regular army is simply the accomp-
lishment of these plans. The Wall street
brokers and corporations attorneys
who have had this scheme in mind for
years, are simply taking advantage of
the present opportunity to have the
army increased. They want to be sure
of protection in case of internal trou-
bleS"

TWO WOMEN STOwAWAYS
Discovered on a Steamer Bound for
KIOndike.

San Francisco, March 1S.-The steam
er City of Puebla went away yester-
day with the largest crowd of passen-
gers that has yet left San Francisco for
Puget Sound. She took away 100 in
the cabin and 296 in the steerage. Of
these over $50 are for the Klondike, the
majority of the others being bound
East via the Canadian Pacific railway
on cut-rate tickets.
The Puebla got away from the wharf
with two women stOWawayS aboard, but
they were discovered as the vessel was
passing Black Point and Captain Jep-
sen at once stopped the steamer and
landed them at Meiggs wharf. They
ferris of this city. They said they
wanted to get to Dyea and thought if
they could only get to Seattle they
could stow away on some other steamer
and thus reach their destination. They
were well known to the sailors on the
Puebla, and called out, "GOOd-by,
Frank to one of the rowerS who
brought them ashore.
Captain Jepsen wasted no time with
the two women. 1t was blowing hard
and he wanted to get outside and on
his course as quickly as possible. When
the boat was in the water and manned
the women were put into a sling, one at
a time, and lowered into the boat. Be
fore they got away from the steamers
side they were soaking wet and during
broke over them. They were landed on
the schooner Lily and Captain BOttger
offered to allow them to dry themselves
in the vessels cabin, but they insisted
on getting ashore and went uptown on
an electric car.

SPANS POSTAGE STAMPS.
Ten Millions Issued to Raise Funds to
Garry on War.

San Antonio, March 1S.-There was
received in this city today from the
City of Mexico, a consignment of $500
patriotic postage stamps of Spain
The cOnsignee was Jose NJ de CASTELAR,,
a Spanish resident of San Antonio and
native of the Canary Islands. This
consignment of stamps reveals a gigan-
tic patriotic scheme of loyal Spanish
subjects on the American continent to
raise fund of $500, 900 to aid the Span
ish government in its war with the Gu
ban insurgents.
The scheme is to issue 10, 900 900 post
age stamps of five cents face value in
the money of country in which they are
used The matter is in the hands of
an executive committee in the City of
Mexico, and the second issue of ]. OOO, 900
stamps has been turned out by a Ger
man lithographing firm in the Mexican
capital. The stamps are sold for five
cents apiece to the Spaniards, and one
stamp is stuck on the sheets of every
letter written by the patriotic subjects
The committee in the City of Mexico
has sold these stamps, it is claimed in
tra1 American Republics, and many
have found their way to this country
Senior CASTELAR, says that the lot which
he received today is part of second mil
lion of such stamps issued. The stamp
is of a light green color and bears this
inscription in an arch around the Span
ish coat of arms: "5-Impuesta Patri-
otica Espanol-5."

Announces His Candidacy for Con-

T. L. Hogue of Johnson county, who
was put forward as a candidate for con-

ter to Johnson county Republicans in
which he says:
II am an active candidate for the Re

the Second district. This statement is
in response to many words of encour-
agement from representative Repubh-

vote of Endorsement given to me unso-

The political situation is highly favora-

has faithfully given cordial support to
congressional and state candidates of
other counties of the district for many
years without receiving any substantial
recognition Believing that the county
has claims which should be presented
by some one, I accept the compliment
and ask the Republicans of Johnson
county for such an Endorsement as will
equip me for the race. I believe am
fully appreciative of the great duties
and responsibilities of a congressman
from Kansas, and shall ask the nOmi-

MLSSWILLARD DRANK WINE
But Tt Was Because Her Physician
Ordered It.

OIQ6T6Q IL
San Francisco, March 1S.-Much sur
prise and some incredulty were eX-
pressed in this city shortly after the
death of Miss Frances E. Willard at a
published statement that Miss Willard
had at one time in her life not only
cOuntenanced theaters on Sunday, but
had also been a partaker of wine at
dinner. This statement was denied by
some of the temperance ladies in this
city, and they searched in the biogra-
ply of Miss Wizards early life to dis
prove the story.
The statement that started the dis
cussion was the following:
1.-The late Frances E. Willard was an
ardent supporter of the cause of tenn
perance, but there was a time when she
recognized the fact that the customs OF
some countries were not quite consist
ent with extreme doctrine on this sub
ject. When she first Travelled abroad
she is on record as having said that she
did three things which she never did
at home. On the continent she went
to see the sights on Sunday, went to
the theater and took wine at dinner.
She learned to love Rudesheimer and
Grand Chartreuse, and, in short, she
did in Rome as the Romans do"
The matter was brought TO the at
tention of the local w. c. T. Union, and
an investigation was made. A search
was made, and it resulted in establish
ing the truth of the statement. One
of the members was authorized to pre-
pare an explanation of the incident, and
the following has been made public:
Miss Willard frankly admitted that
she did, while abroad, attend the the
ater a few times see the sights a few
times on Sunday and took wine at din
ner But when and how did these
things occur? There were some i'm
pOrtant sights to be seen on Sunday
only. Then she was very sick in Co
penhagen and the doctor said If you
ever. expect to see your home again you
must avoid drinking water as you go
from one country to another So she
mixed wine with water at dinner. She
learned better and when abroad other
times did not do so, but said drink milk
if you cannot drink the water
Then this was from 1868 10 1879 be-
fore she became dean of the North
western university, before she went in
to any temperance or evangelisitc
work and nine years before she became
the national president. Our beloved
Miss Willard sincerely regretted the
mistakes of those earlier years and
surely the grand work since done and
the stand she had so nobly taken for
truth and temperance,
the cause for which she gave her life,
should make one follow her gentle. low

Numbering the good instead Of the
