SNAKE HER STOMACH.
Reptile Ten Inches Long Extracted
From a Girls Throat.

St. Louis, July ia snake ten inches
long and an inch in circumference has
been removed from the stomach of Lena
NOvosic, Is years old, by DR.. r. M. Hughes
of the city diSpenSary staff. The girl Tor
the last two months has been bothered
with pains in her stomach At times the
pain would become intense and she sur
fered from commissions. She was weak
and emaciated and without appetite Her
would not digest. Several doctors were
consulted, but all without success. The
girl did not obtain relief and her parents
thought that she had been bewitched-
Several days ago the girls parents took
her to Doctor Hughes at the city dlspenS-
airy. He examined har and soon diScoV-
~ered her ailment. He gave her medicines
and told her to come again for final treat
ment. The girl did So and DR.. Hughes
gave her a large glass of medicine. The
girl drank it, and after a few moments
felt creeping sensation in her stomach.
A few minutes later she felt something IN
her throat and it almost gagged her. DR..
Hughes was watching her carefully, and
with some instruments grabbed the mead
of the snake and pulled it out of the girls
throat. She gave a cry OF relief and Dr.
Hughes smiled.
The snake is known as a species of the
ascareS hemicaeelz and the specimen is
one of the largest ever extracted from
human throat
The girl was given a tonic, and in an
DR.. Hughes placed the snake in bottle
of water and its wriggles, evidently of dis
satisfaction a having been forced to leave
the girls stomach, were shown to DR..
Hughes visitors during the day. He will
carefully preserve the snake.

Big Personal Damage Suit Filed
in EmpOria.

Dighton, July 19.-Frank Maple, a
step son of County Clerk Freeman, met
with an accident which might have
proved much more serious. With sew
eral other lads he was watching w. H.
Walker who was moving a house in the
south part of town. Frank lay down
by the side of the house to see it move
when the team started. Without think
ing or noticing what he was doing he
put his arm right in front of one of the
rollers and when the house started the
roller caught his arm.
Fortunately the team was stopped be-
fore the full weight of the house came
upon his arm. 1t was necessary to pry
up the house before the lad was re-
leased and it was truly fortunate that
he escaped without any broken bones.
His arm was badly bruised and the in
jury was painful.

MORE WAR REVENUES.
Powers of Attorney Must Be Adorned
by a IS Cent Stamp.

New York, July ia ruling of i'm
portance to members of the stock ex-
change was today received by Collector
Charles H. Treat of the second internal
revenue district of this city from Com
missioner Scott from Washington.
1t is to the effect that the power of
attorney on every certificate of trans
fer of stocks must have a rs cent stamp
affixed in addition to the regular
transfer tax of 81 per 100 shares. Mr..
Treat at once transferred a report of
this ruling to the president of the ex-
change, Mr. Rudolph Keppler, who has
been urging for three weeks that the
question be decided one way or the
other.
The opinion works havoc with the
theory which has prevailed in the ex-
change that the law contemplates only
one tax on one transaction. The GER
tifcates of transfer are usually for 100
shares at a time and the ruling means
that the tax on every such transfer
will be 2.25 instead of So The cost
to a Spectator of every 100 shares he
sells will therefore be for commission
and taxes STATS.

Butcher Shops and All Business IN
der the Ban st Seneca

Seneca, July 19.-Seneca is laboring
under blue laws" just now, and her
people can't buy a thing on Sunday.
The Courier-DemOcrat has this to say
about the matter:
'Au that remains now, is to sing the
dOXOlOgy and Seneca's capitulation to
the gOOdy goodies will be complete. In
compliance to orders from Attorney
General Woodwork, who is the whole
thing in interpreting and enforcing the
statedtes, no more meat, ice, milk, bread,
or any other necessaries of life can be
sold or delivered on Sunday, and citi-
zens are expected to remain within
their own gates and sizzIe and fry and
fast during the Lords day.
IF Christ came to Seneca, he would
probably have to go hungry unless the
county's chief dictator could be induced
to issue Him permit. There is such a
thing as a town being too open, and
again, there is the other extreme in be-
ing too tight laced in living up to the
gnats eye line of the law"

st. Louis Republic: The Spanish
General Jose Toral did not surrender.
He capituIated. From Santiago and
Cuba he will not go. On the contrary
he viii merely take his departure. He
has not been outwitted and thrashed.
He and his valorous men have simply
been the victims of an Unforeseen and
empowering combination of superior
force and circumstances It has devel-
oped that the final terms for the sur
render of Santiago hinged upon YER
biage and not upon conditions. The
Dons refused to call a spade q spade.
TO them a rose by any other name is
not as sweet. They will give up every
thing but orthoepy, and that is about
ali they viii take back to Spain when
shafter is done with them.

SMITH COUNTY PROSPEROUS.
New Wheat on the Market-old Corn
in the Crib.

Smith Center, July 19.-Smith county
has harvested the largest acreage of
wheat ever sown in the county, $4,000
acres.
The threshers are at work and new
wheat is coming to market. That al
ready sold here has brought 60 cents
a bushel.
The quality is not what was antici-
pated but the quantity more than
makes it up.
Our implement dealer L. T. Reece
has received the encouraging Informal
ton that he has sold more threshers
than any town in the state this season.
his total output being eleven, three of
them are run by steam. 1t is also graf
flying to note that they are cash sales.
Smith county had 2,942, 638 bushels of
old corn on hand when the assessors
made their returns late in the spring,
one township, Crystal Plains, without
railroad or a town, having 225,8 bush
els.
The county returns an increase in her
taxable property valuation of 1897. Be
sides she shows a healthy increase in
her population, it being about 1000, or
IA, 906 being her total.
The acreage in corn is large and ev-
cry field is looking fine. It has been
many years since Smith county was in
so good shape as it is at this time.

The acquisition of Hawaii makes all
commerce between those islands and
our Pacific cities a coasting trade, in
which only American vessels can take
part. This alone will enormously swell
the trade of Seattle, Tacoma, Portland,
San Francisco and the other Pacific
coast points, and create a new era Of
prosperity where there has for many
years been depression and 1anguishing.
Add to this consideration the new Pa
cif1c cable now assured, and the meal
culable volume of commerce sure to fol-
low our increased influence in Asiatic
waters, and the Pacific coast may well
congratulate itself upon the vista of
prosperity opening before it.

NO NEGROES IN LIE Roy.
The Reporter Explains This Unusu-
al Condition in Kansas Town.

commented on that there are no colored
people in LIE Roy, and some outsiders,
for political or other reasons, have
sought to convey the impression that
the people of this town will not allow
colored people to live among them. This
is entirely erroneous. Various colored
people have lived here from time to
time and they have invariably been
treated as well as any other class of
people. In fact they did we'll in a finan-
cial way. But colored people dislike to
be isolated. They love to be among
people of their own race. Hence they
will flock into towns where that race
is well represented. The effort to make
political capital against LIE Roy or her
people down here is the cheapest politi-
cal clap trap we have seen for some
time

DIVINE TOOK THE CASH.
The Rev. Herman Swedelius Caught
As He is Leaving Town.

Chicago, July 19.-The Rev Herman
Swedelius, a Lutheran minister, was
charged in Justice Kersten's court with
having stolen $35 from c. F. Appel, who
keeps a shoe store.
Swedelius was captured by Officers
Berwick and Ryan of the Chicago ave-
nue. station just as he was about to
board a car at Locust and Sedgwick
streets. He had mis- effects packed in
a vaIise and was prepared to leave
town with the money. The officers
found a Bible on his person. He ad-
mitted taking the cash, the police say,
and was bound over to the Criminal
court in $500 bonds.

ItaIy's formidable preparations to col
1ect an indemnity from Colombia will,
doubtless result in its prompt payment
Colombia can not find shelter behind
the Monroe doctrine, for the sum
claimed by Italy has been awarded by
the decision of a President of the
United States. to whom both countries
submitted the case fors arbitration.
The United States is bound to recognize
the decision of its own President, even
if Colombia were not bound. 1t is not
likely that the italian squadron will
have to lombard a Colombian city.

ADOPTS NEW SYSTEM.
Washington County Officers Will
Keep Strict Account.

Washington, July 19.-At the last
meeting of the Washington county
board of commissioners it was decided
to adopt the cash system in the treas
urers office and put in the new set of
books.
County Clerk August SoIler has
worked for this change for some time
and while few counties have as yet
adopted the system, he believes sooner
or later it will be in use in many coun-
ties in Kansas.
By the change the treasurer and
clerk will know at the end of the days
business of any shortage if such ex-
lists, as the balances will tally with the
cash. Washington is the first county
in this part of the state to adopt the
new system.
