Details Of the scheme, as formulated by the

ANOTHER DIFF1CuLTY
Which Has to Be Remedied About
the Axle Light.

The Axle Electric Light company
have a problem to solve that they did
not think of when the new system of
car lighting was introduced on the
Santa Fe. The generator and automat-
ic switch board are regulated and so
constructed as to generate and store
electricity after q speed of eight miles
an hour has been attained and in order
to generate enough electricity and to
store the same in the batteries for use
when the car is standing an average
speed of 35 miles an hour is necessary.
On the mountain divisions the aver
age speed of 80 miles an hour is not
made in some places and this point
must be overcome 1t is easy to regu-
late the mechanism so that the electric
ityswill be stored when a speed of less
than eight miles an hour is obtained
and will store the sufficient amount at
an average speed of less than So miles
an hour but the mechanism that will do
that will not give satisfaction on trains
of a higher speed. President Max
Schmidt of the company says that sew
eral inventions are being tried to over
come this and within a few months the
matter will be properly adjusted. This
does not imply that the lights do not
give satisfaction but the Improvement
will be a relief to the machinery and
will obViate the possibility of shortage
of light

LET THE LAW ALONE.
Representative Simmins Thinks the
Present Railroad Law Should
Stand a While Longer.

J. c. Simmons, Populist representa-
tive from Franklin county. is opposed
to an extra, session of the legislature.
Mr. Simmons came to Topeka to act as
juror at the trial of the Hillmon case,
and is not bashful about expressing his
opinion on the proposed extra session.
Governor Leedy will make mistake
if he calls the legislature together in
extra session." said Mr. Simmons today.
He will hurt his party and give the
Republicans a whip with which to crack
US over the back in the next campaign
1 am opposed to such a move, and II
had any influence would try to persuade
the governor to abandon such a course.
L believe that we have a competent
board of railroad commissioners who
are trying the present law to find the
weak points in it. I am in favor of al
lowing them to continue, and then let
them make a report to the next legfsla-
ture. By that time they will have found
all the defects in the law as it stands,
and can suggest radical measures for its
Improvement. This will prevent the big
expense OF an extra session, and ult1-
mately result in as much benefit to the
people of the state. I am really sorry
on account of the party that Governor
Leedy proposes such a move"

WHERE COURTS CLASH.
Federal Judiciary and State Authority
Come Together in Arkansas
CITY Case.

The citizens of Arkansas City who
were summoned to appear before Judge
John L. Williams of the federal court
to show why they should not be pun
ished for" contempt of an order of that
tribunal, appeared in Topeka Monday
They We're: J. c. Curry, @. E. Sails
bury. w. d. Parry, William Kroenert.
H H Hill, E. P. Reynolds, L. t Harmed,
J. r. Harmon, G. w. Duncan and f
Trimper, also J. E. Terrence of Win
field.
L. c. Brown, city attorney of Arkan-
sas City, is also present. w. L. MAIDEN
of wellington is the attorney for county
treasurer, F. r. Conkright, who is in
volved in the litigation.
Judge Williams of the federal court
issued an order requiring a levy against
the property in the city to raise $1S,5OO
defauIted hydrant rental due the COM
Danv which owned the waterworks. The
citizens who are in contempt sought to
prevent the levy alleging that it was
excessive and in violation of the law.
The levy ordered amounted to q mills.
The citizens claim that the payment OF
the rentals should come from the gen
eraI revenue fund and the law provides
for no more than ten mill levy to raise
money for that fund. The citizens then
secured from Judge Mcbride an order
restraining the county treasurer from
collecting the taxes. This injunction
was issued in the face of the order of
the federal court, and the contempt
proceedings are the result.

MUST QUIT THE CHURCH.
DR.. McGifert's Unorthodox Views
Regarding the Lords Supper.

New York, Feb. 15.-Rev. DR.. Walter D.
Buchanan, moderator of the New York
presbytery, when asked today regarding
the rumored likelihood of the heresy trial
of Rev. DR.. Arthur Cushman McGiffert.
professor of~church history in the Union
Theological seminary, said:
I can only say that if Dr. ATcGiffert'S
book contains the passages to which my
attention has been directed, or similar
passages. it seems to me clear beyond all
dispute that he is out of touch with Pres
byterianism as it still exists. He is not
in harmony with the standards of our
church and I cannot see what other course
he can properly take except to separate
himself from us In the case of DR.. Nc
Gifert, I do~not see how there can be any
question between conservatives and Hber-
als-how they can do otherwise than unite
in a condemnat ton of a teaching which
would destroy one of the most cherished
beliefs in Christendom. OF course, I do
not wish to be understood as cOndemning
DR.. McGinert offhanded.''
DR.. McGiffert, in his history of Chris
tianity in the apostolic age, denies the
sacrificial and spiritual elements of the
Lords Supper.

This expression is heard constantly.
Perhaps you, reader, have hear it and
possibly you have made it yourself. It
is a sad fact, but a fact none the less.
that while the grip is bad enough and
depressing enough when in its acute
form, it is often worse when it settles in
some part of the body and continues to
destroy the health and ruin the life
Doctor Lombard, in speaking on this
subject recently said;
''It is a weII-known fact, admitted By
all doctors that grip does settle in the
body and bring distressing effects along
after it is apparently cured But the
doctors do not always say just where It
usually settles. 1t should be clearly un-
derstood, then, that the spots which
grip commonly selects are the kidneys
and urinary organs. It is quite natur-
al that it should do so for these are the
very organs that are overworlked in
trying to drive the grip out of the sys-
tenn, and naturally, being OverWOrl1ed,
they are weakened and become an easy
prey for the disease
when these delicate but most fmpor-
tant organs are attacked in their weak
ened condition, they cannot throw the
grip from the system without help
good help-strOng help-relia BILE help
But, you ask, where can such assist
ance be secured? The question is not
an easy one. Many things will help
the kidneys, urinary and female organs
temporarily, but it is not temporary
help that they need. They require some
the grip and cast it out forever. Ordi-
nary medicines will not accomplish this.
1t requires scientific discovery
something out of the Ordinary-some-
thing that can be depended upon dbso-
lutely. There is, so far as we know so
far as the scientific world knows, but
one remedy that fills this requirement
That remedy is Warmers Safe Cure. It
was the most potent factor in conquer
ing the grip in Europe, and it has been
the only remedy that has successfully
removed it's after effects in America
Rev. DR.. Rankin, President of Howard
University, Washington, D. c., says
concerning this:
Il know of persons who have been
permanently cured of diseases of the
kidneys and adjacent organs by the use
of Warmers Safe Cure. I know, too, OF
its being used in similar cases by physi-
clans of the highest standing. This
great remedy 1 wish, in the cause OF
humanity, to recommend"
Any man or woman who is CONVEX
SAINT with the advance of science, or the
progress of the world, must know that
this great discovery stands on a high
plane of it's own, far above all ordinary
medicines, remedies" or "curesr It
accOmpIishes what no other medicine
ever has accomplished or can accomp-
Hsh. 1t cures people, and, more than
all elese, it removes the terrible after
effects which the grip has in hundreds
of cases, loaded upon the weakened
frames of so many men and women.

A HANDSOME ENGINE
Is $50, Manned by Engineer William
Rain.

Engine $50 is one of the handsomest
engines in the service of the Santa Fe.
1t is manned by Engineer William Rain
and Fireman William Robinson and
they take special pride trying to have
the finest front end and cab of any en-
CINE on the road and it will take good
competition to cheat them out of the
honor. In the headlight of the engine
is a hand painted picture of a scene in
the Klondike. In the cab are small
brass lamps, brass waste cups all shin
ing as bright as rubbing can make
them. But the decoration that is best
known by railroad men and most high
ly priced by the owners is a five pointed
brass star about IA inches from point to
point that is on the front end of the
engine under the headlight. In the CEN
ter of the star is a brass spearhead
pointing the way
The star and Spearhead have been
running on the Santa Fe for the past IS
years and are known all along the line.
The star first belonged to James Bren-
ham IS years ago. 1t was stolen from
him and George Lyman bought it in a
Junk shop and up to last summer it
graced the engine run by him and w.
W Frisbie. Just before the Lang
wreck. in which both Brennan and
F'risbie were killed, the star was taken
off the engine by Fireman Charles
Leach who had been transferred to an
other run. So it has been for Is years.
