Her Face is Well.
The sore has entirely disappeared, leaving
not scar, but only slight mark, which

BENT ON BLOWING UP A FORT.
Four Men Fire ON the Sentinel at
Fort CIinch.

Fernandina, Fla, May 27.-Sergt. John
W. Madeira, stationed at Fort Clinch near
this place, while on duty last night, no.
ticed four men prowling around the gate
of the fort and started toward them to
learn their business, when he was fired
upon, the ball lodging in the wall about
two feet from his head. He imediately
returned the fire. The miscreants turned
and ran.
Sergt, Madeira followed them several
hundred yards into the woods, but saw no
more of them.
Owing to the vigilance of the guard the
parties did not get close enough to the
wall to have placed explosives there, but
this was undoubtedly their object, as they
were near the powder magazines.

THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS

is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination. but
also to the care and skill with which
it is manufactured by scientific proc
esses known to the CALIFORNIA FIG
SYRUP Co. only, and we wish to i'm
press upon all the importance of pur-
chasing the true and original RENE
dy. As the genuine Syrup of Figs is
manufactured by the CALIFoRNIA
FIG SYRUP Co. only, a knowledge of
that fact will assist one in avoiding
the worthless limitations manufact-
ured by other parties. The high
standing of the CALIFORNIA FIe
SYRUP Co. with the medical profess
sion, and the satisfaction which the
genuine Syrup of Figs has given to
millions of families, makes the name
OF the Company guaranty of the ex-
celience OF its remedy. 1t is far in adj
vance of all other laxatives, as it acts
on the kidneys, liver and bowels
without irritating or weakening
them, and it does not grippe nor nau-
seate- In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name

vides for the issuance of S440, 900 of wa
ter works bonds but this does not mean
that that many bonds will be issued.
1t may not be necessary to sell more
city will issue only what was necessary
Of the amount authorized by the cleo
tion.
A great. deal is being said about the
city loading itself up with additional
bonds. But a. water works system in
Topeka properly conducted can be made
to pay for itself in the life of the bonds.
1t should not be necessary to increase
the taxes a single cent if the city buys
or builds a water plant. The plant will
pay its way. If it would not the wa
ter company would not be anxious to
hold on to it.
The city has paid the water company
in hydrant rentals, that is for the use of
fire hydrants, over S190,000 during the
past II years, and even then large
number OF property owners nave been
without fire protection. Such a cOndi-
ton will not exist after the city has
acquired a water plant.
No one knows what the water users
of the city have annually dumped into
the laps of the eastern owners of the
Topeka water plant but the estimated
sum is now in the neighbOrhOod of $780,
600 per annum. In twenty years more
at that rate the people would pay to a
foreign corporation S1,00O,OOO. which is
enough to build several water plants in
Topeka.
municipal ownership tomorrow the city
council will be pledged to several re-
ferns.
First-A reduction in the water rates
to all consumers.
Second-An extension of the water
mains to the dry districts.
Third-A more satisfactory fire pres
sure and a more adequate supply Of
water.
Fourth-The establishment of at least
200 more fire hydrants.
The municipal ownership of the wa
ter works system has been thoroughly
discussed. After an exhaustive discus
sion in the council and the preSenta-
ton of a mammoth petition containing
the names of more than 1000 tax payers
the council had the proposition drawn
up for submission to the people. Then
the Topeka Commercial club took up
the matter and after a thorough dis
cussiOn endorsed the proposition by a
nearIyunanimous vote.
The cost of lighting the streets was
reduced more than half by the city
acquiring the electric plant and there
is now an annual saving of nearly 81, ,O0o
q year and there is no reason why the
city should not save more by acqdiring
the water supply system.
City ownership Of the water supply
has been successful wherever tried and
one by one the large cities are discard
ing the cid corporation systems of farm
ing out city business. It is the business
of the city to supply the water and
there is no good reason why the bust
ness should be turned over to some
company for profit.

A HEAD ON SMASH.
Two Express Trains Come To-
gether on the Lehigh Valley.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Nov. 1.-THE Buff
falo express on the Lehigh Valley rail-
road which left New York at $3.50 last
night ran into the New York and Phil
adeIphia express going east on Wilkes
barre mountain at o'clock this morn
ing. The train going east which was
composed of an express car, combina-
ton baggage, a day coach and three
sIeepers had the right of way on
single track. The Buffalo express in
charge of Engineer Kohling had orders
to stop on a siding on the mountain
and let the New York express pass AS
KOhling approached the siding he dis
covered that the airbreaks would not
work. The train was moving about 80
miles an hour down a grade.
The engineer whiStled frantically for
the hand breaks. He knew the other
train was about due He reversed his
engine and stuck to his post but could
not avert the collision In less than
minute the express from the west
drawn by two heavy engines hove in
sight. A terrible crash followed on a
curve in a deep cut. Nearly all the
passengers on both trains were asleep
Many of these were thrown out OF their
berths by the shock but none was badly
injured.
The engine, baggage and express cars
were piled up in heap in the cut. The
passengers rushed from the cars hear
ing the cries Of the injured trainmen in
the wreck. 1t was almost impossible to
hastened to the nearest telegraph office
and sent word to Wi1kesbarre. A wreck
ing train with a number of physicians
and two clergymen were at once sent to
the scene of the wreck. AS soon as pos
sible the dead and injured were taken
from under the engine and cars.
The train going east consisted of an
express car, combination baggage, one
day coach and four PuIlmans. The pas
sengers were brought to this city and
later a train was made up here for over
the "cut off, branch road. The road is
completely blocked and will not be clear
ed for some hours.
The killed and wounded taken from
the wreck are:
