Influence of Drugs.

The influence Of all drugs which
affect the nervous system must be
in the direction Of disiItegraticn.
Tho healthy mind stands in clear
ana normal relations with nature.
K feels pam ;i5 pain. 1t feels action
as pleasure. 'I1o drug which con
ceals pain on gives false pleasure
when pleasure does not exist forces
q lie upon the nervous system. The
drug which 'tlaposes to reverie rath-
CT than to work, which makes us
feel well when we are not we'll, de-
s'troys the sanity Of life All slim
ulanis, narcotics, tonics, which al
feet the nervous system in whatever
way, reduce the truthfulness Of sen
sation, thought and action. Toward
insanity all lsuch influences lead, and
tAeil, eff ert, slight though it be, is
Of the same nature as mania. The
man who would see clearly, think
truthtully and act effectively must
avoid them all Emergency aside,
lac cannot safely force upon his
nervous; system even the smallest
falsehuUd And here lies the one
great ununsWeruble argument for
total abstinence, not abstinence from
alcohol alone, but from all nerve
poisons and emotional eNcesses. -

Life has a burden for every ones shoulder.
None may escape trom its trouble and care.
Miss it in youth and twill come when were
older
And fiji rs as coc as tie garments We wear
Sorrow comes into our homes N1'ln'1ted,
Robin, our hearts Of lis treasures of song;
Lovers grow cold, and our friendships arc
sighted
Yet somehow or other we worry along.
Midst tho sweet blossoms that smile III cur
faces
Grow tho rank weeds that would poison ana
blight,
And e'er i'll tho midst of ca'th,s beautiful
places
There always is something that isn't quite
right.
Yet oft from rock we may pluck q gay flower
And drink from {, sI'rilg in dnso!Htc waste
They come to tho heart like a heavenly dover,
And naught is SO s"t&S 70 the eye or INC
taste.
Everyday toll is everyday hios%in'
Though poverty 5 cottage Hlli crust we Eay
share.
Weak i, the bacl; on which burdens are press

But stout rs the heart that is strengthened
by prayer.
Somehow or other the pathway grows brighter
Just when we mourn there Was none TO be

Hopo in the heart makes the burden grow
lighter,
And somehow or other get to the end

PRIVATES OBJECT.
Officers of the Twenty-First Anxious
for Garrison Duty.

Lyt1e, Ca, Aug. 24.-There is great
excitement in the camp of the Twenty
first Kansas regiment. They have
been getting up petition to be sent to
the war department at Washington for
the purpose of being mustered out, as
we do not desire to do garrison duty.
A vote was taken among the different
companies and over 50 per cent express
sed their desire to be mustered out,
saying that they came to fight and not
to guard forts.
The boys are quite incensed over the
stand the officers have taken in trying
to put this regiment in garrison duty
at which we boys all object.
The lieutenant colonel made a
speech to the boys on Saturday in the
morning telling them to keep quiet
awhile and that we would go to Lexing-
ton and that we would all soon be mus
tered out. By making the speech he
thought that he might delay the boys
in getting in their petition for q few
days and by delaying he thought the
other regiments would have theirs in
ahead of the boys and be mustered out
first, which he hoped it would leave
this regiment for garrison duty.
The officers are drawing big salaries
and that is why they want to stay
where the private only draws $13 per
month, and have wives and folks to
support at home. They have better
wages awaiting them at home. The
officers made no special efforts to get
US to the front, now that peace is de-
clared, they want to go to one of the
islands for garrison, to which over 50
per cent of the boys object.

HAYSLIP TO LEAVE
If the Jail Sentence is RENTED He
Will Shake Topeka

Al Hayslip, who has been proprietor
of the Royal billiard hall for several
years, has pleaded guilty to maintain
ing a nuisance and his action was a
surprise. Hayslip was one of the first
victims of Mayor Fellows vigorous
dry policy. He, with Bowman, An
tome and Cave, was placed under ar
rest soon after Chief Strauss came into
office.
Yesterday Hayslip's attorney appear
ed before Police Judge Ferry and enter
ed for his client a plea of guilty. Judge
Ferry assessed a fine of $3.50 and i'm
posed a sentence of 80 days in the city
Jail The fine was Immediately paid.
AL Hayslip is now i'll at his home on
Topeka avenue. He has had a fever,
and is yet in feeble health. He cannot
serve out his sentence for some time as
it would be inhUmane to move him.
Hayslip has declared his intention of
leaving Topeka never to return. 1t is
probable that the city council will be
made acquainted with this fact and
asked to allow him to go, suspending
the Jail sentence HaySnp'S sentence of
80 days in Jail cannot be counted while
he is ill at home. He will have to first
urrender to the officers and if not able
to work, kept at the hospital room at
the city jail. But he is not likely to do
this. Physically, Hayslip is broken
down man.

DECLARE FOR EXPANSION.
Missouri Republicans Construe the
Monroe Doctrine.

st. Louis, Aug. 24.-The following is
a synopsis of the platform adopted by
the state Republican convention of
Missouri:
THE Republican party of the state of
Missouri, in convention assembled, con-
graduates the nation upon the I'M
paralleled success of the administration
OF President Mckinley, which has been
distinguished for wise craftsmanship
and lofty patriotism in both its domes-
tic and foreign policy and for the eff
Gent manner in which the war with
Spain has been conducted to an early
and honorable conclusion. And we
hereby express our approval of the
terms of the protocol imposed by the
president between this country and
Spain, as necessary condition preced-
ent to the suspension of hostilities. We
extend our thanks to the American
army and navy for their noble sacrifice
in behalf of their country, their bril-
liant achievements in the Spanish
American war. We reaffirm our faith
in the declaration of principles of the
party. We are in favor of increasing
our navy. We favor an adequate sys-
tenn of harbor and sea coast defenses,
and the maintenance of a regular and
thoroughly equipped army, sufficient in
size, adequately to insure the defense
of the nation at all times.
1--WE are in favor of the completion
of the Nicaraguan canal for the ex-
tension of American commerce, and the
perfection of our national defense. We

extent as a principle of our party, and
we believe the United States should
stand aloOf from interference with the
affairs and disputes of European pow
ers when American interests are not
involved; but we assert that the Mon
roe doctrine does not compel our gov
eminent to abandon or TO return to the
tyranny of Spanish rule any of the
helpless peoples who have by force of
circumsta noes in the conquest of the
Spanish-American war been placed I'M
der our protecting care. And we fur
ther assert that the Monroe doctrine
does not forbid the enlargement and eX-
tension of American territory or the
protection of American interests in the

come here and enjoy themselves that
is all we expect. I have done a great
deal of work canvassing for subscrip-
lions and 1 have not found a business

1t was agreed that the three locations
mentioned should be inspected today
by the committee before a decision is
reached.
The following resolutions were
adopted:
Resolved, That the county commits

ADJUDGED INSANE.
E. Y. Adams, Who Attempted to
Shoot N. B. Campbell, is Found
to Be Crazy.

E. Y Adams. the carpenter who attempt
ed to shoot N. B: Campbell, the loan
agent, was yesterday adjudged insane by
a jury in the probate court. He is man
of AZ years, and has been known as a
skillfui carpenter. Last week he went to
CampbelTs office and drew a revolver on
him, hreatening to kill him if he did not
sign a release to a mortgage which he
held against him. Adams pulled the trig-
ger and the cartridge failed to explode.
Adams was finally OverpOwered and taken
to jail. Lately it has been noticed that
he was acting strangely. He will be
taken to the Topeka insane asylum. This
removes the charge which was against
him of assault with intent to kill. Adams
has a wife and child.
