and Curtis street Then the bunco man
remembered that he had cashed draft
for $4,000 and that the money, all in
gold, was in his grip at the depot. 1t
was too heavy, of course to carry. But
he had another draft and would run
upstairs in the Opera House block to
have it cashed by a friend. Hinkley
waited on the Curtis street sidewalk
for his return. It was unfortunate, but
his friend was not in, and would Hink-
ley let him have $50 to pay the under
takers fee until they went back to the
depot.
Hinkley ripped a hole in the lining Of
his vest and took out $50 which a fe-
male relation had carefully sewed there
when he determined to leave the busy
life of Havensville and seek fortune or
fame in Salubria, Idaho. The bunco
man went up the Curtis street stairway
of the Opera House block to pay the

LONG TRIP WITH TROUSERS

egraph messenger, who was recently
sent from this city to Aiken, S. G.,
simply to carry pair of polo breeches
to their owner.
1t was a round trip of 1872 miles, and
the messengers fee, at 80 cents an hour
was about $40.
1t so happened that George P. Eus-

in question at the Knickerbocker club,
and knowing that they belonged to
Thos. Hitchcock, Jr., of Aiken, S. c.,
he rang up a messenger and said:

WANT A CHEMICAL ENGINE.
Women of College Hill Will Seek Fire
Protection.

The women of College Hill have be-
come exercised over the poor fire pro-
lection afforded that suburb, and they
have decided to take the matter up and
secure better protection The fire at
Washburn college Monday showed that
this district, which. is within the city
limits and taxed heavily, is practically
outside the reach Of any protection by
the firemen.
There are no fire hydrants west of
Thirteenth and Buchanan streets, switch
leaves a district within the limits near
" mile in extent without water. The
fire department does not own enough
hose to lay a pipe line to fires on Col
lege Hill. Another thing is that 1t IS
fully two miles from the nearest chem
ical engine, which is at fire headquart-
ers. The nearest hose wagon is a mile
and a. quarter.
Since the WaShburn college fire sew
eral conferences have been held A
committee of women will call upOnMayor
Fellows. and the councilmen, upon
Marshal Wilmarth and the officers of
the water company. Those who are
taking an active part in the work are
Mesdames Frank Merriam, ThOs. s.
Lyon, L. D. WhittemOre, E. B. Merriam,
J. T. LoveweIl, Harry Whiting, w A.
Neiswanger, NJ. MOhler, Chas. NJ. Shell

art Sheldon, and Miss Caroline Mad
docks of Washburn college.
The main request to be made will be
for the establishment by the city of
fire station on the hill in the vicinity of
Fifteenth and Buchanan streets. An
effort will be made to secure SubScrip-
tiOns for the purchase of a lot and the
erection of a suitable building in which
to keep a chemical engine. This lOca-
ton would command the territory of
College Hill and also Martin & Dennis
addition. AS the city water has not
been extended to College Hill it is con-
sidered that a chemical engine would
be of far more use than a hose wagon.
The territories of College Hill and Mar

the yardmaster. The car men were sum

two hours to put the new Wheels under
the car, and all the time it was being
done the lions and lion tanners and eV-
eryOne else on the train were peacefully
sleeping. When the train started on its
journey it was two hours late, and It
stayed two hours late until the end OF
the run, and ali on account OF those

even showed their teeth, and the owners
stood near by and remarked about me

why it was behind time.

KID NICHOLS HOLDS OFF.
Boston's Famous Pitcher Wants a
Raise of $500 in Salary.

Boston, March pa dispatch from
Greensboro, N. c., where the Boston
nine has gone for its spring practice,
says that Pitcher Charles Nichols, who
was the mainstay- of the club in win
ming the national league pennant last
year, refuses TO sign at the salary Of
fered.
Nichols is getting SO, 900 now, and he
is said to demand $500 more for a sea-
sons work, together with certain other
privileges which the Boston manage
ment is not disposed to grant.
Manager Selee thinks that Nick
will come around all right in the near
future, but the friends of the pitcher
say he will stick. Nichols is supposed
to be at. his home in Kansas City, and
he has made no move to join the team
for practice.
His absence would seriously cripple
BostOn's aspirations for winning the
flag in 1898.

HAD A DEAD BROTHER.
How a Man From HavensviIIe Was
Worked by Denver Bunco Man.

Denver Republican: The ST. Pat
rick's day hue had not entirely depart
ed from Fred Hink1ey when he appear
ed at the Union depot yesterday after
noon. He had fOrsaken the pastures of
HavenSville, Kan, last Thursday morn
ing, and with $50 had wandered out to
discover SaIubria, Idaho.
Hinkley was standing in the waiting
room of the depot when he was ap
preached by an innocent looking young
man with a Stubby brown mouStache
and a consumptive's complexion. The
weather was beautiful indeed. Was
Hinkley long in Denver? Only a few
hours. Ali and was going to Idaho by
way of Cheyenne. How lucky! The
bristles on his upper lip was also going
to Cheyenne. He was also a stranger;
in fact, only came to Denver on mes
sage of death. His brother had died
here and he had come to take back the
remains to Wyoming for burial
Frederick Hinkley of Kansas sympa-
thized with the stranger in distress.
The bunco man saw that he had i'm
pressed him and he enlarged on his
family loss, and incidentally scored the
Denver undertakerS for their lack of
knowledge of the embalming business.
He said he had given his brothers
body to one undertaken, and had paid
$50 for embalming it. The job had not
been done according to his fastidious
idea and he had engaged another en-
baImer to do it as it ought to be done.

man and a valuable acquisition. He says:
I am willing to stand by the decision of
the people of the district If they desire
to nominate Mr.. Ingalls,, would be for
him"
Webb McNau said: Notwithstanding
Charlie Curtis long years of faithful
service to the Republican party, the gang
which runs politics in the First district
intends to turn him down. This will be
done in the face of his well known silver
record and merit in other directions.
Since the gang intends to deliver the dis
trict to the man who will do their bid
ding, know of nothing better to suggest
than the nomination of ingalls,, who could
be elected, because he is man of ma
tionaI reputation, a scholar and a genius.
Only such a man could defeat the bosses.
His well known friendliness for silver and
the Populist party makes him an exceed
ingly available candidate, and he ought
to have the nomination.

pared which will be circulated freely in

to the council asking for the chemical

edge of the city limits have signified
their willingness to give d reasonable
sum as their share of the expenses of

GIVE SPOTS, LUCK.
Engineer Jolly Has Narrow Escape
in Collision With Tele-
graph Pole.

''The Five Spot that pulls the fast
mail from Kansas City to Topeka, in
charge of Engineer Ed Jolly, has luck
good and bad. Since she struck seven
mules and a horse, and killed them all
in less than a minute, her escapes have
been cbristened 1.-The Five Spots
Luck
The fast mail left Kansas City as US
ual Tuesday morning and was making
about so or so miles an hour. 1t did not
leave Kansas City until after the heavy
wind and hail storm, and was the first
train to leave on the Santa F'e after the
fury of the storm had abated. Just af-
ter leaving Wilder, Engineer Jolly sud
denly jumped from his seat to the floor
of the cab, and in a second the right
hand side of the cab, where he had been
sitting, was totally demolished. A
telegraph pole had been blown over by
the storm, and the wires held it across
the track in such a position that it
struck the cab as the engine flew by.
Engineer Jolly cleared the wreckage
away and kept on his journey without
even Stacking speed, and the paSsen-
gers knew nothing of the accident.
Luckily, neither Engineer jolly or any
of the mechanism of the engine was
hurt.

A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Remedies for Dyspepsia
and Indigestion.


The national disease of Americans is
indigestion or in its chronic form, dyS-
pepsia, and for the very reason that it
as so common many people neglect tax
ing proper treatment for what they
consider trifling stomach trouble, when
as matter of fact, indigestion lays the
foundation for many incurable diseases.
No person with a vigorous, healthy
stomach will fall a victim to cOnSump-
ton Many kidney diseases and heart
troubles date their beginning from poor
digestion; thin, nervous people are real
ly so because their StOmaChS are out of
gear; weary, languid, faded out women
owe their condition to imperfect diges-
ton.
When nearly every person you meet
Is afflicted with weak digestion it is
not surprising that nearly every secret
patent medicine on the market claims
to be a cure for dyspepsia, as well as a
score of other troubles, when in fact as
Dr. Werthier says, there is but one
genuine dyspepsia cure which is per
fectly safe and reliable, and moreover,
this remedy is not a patent medicine,
but it is a scientific combination of pure
pepsin Gree from animal matter), veg
etable essences. fruit salts and bismuth.
It is sold by druggists under name of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. No extraV-
agant claims are made for them, but for
indigestion or any stomach trouble,
Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tablets are far
ahead of any remedy yet discovered.
They act on the food eaten, no dieting
Is necessary, simply eat all the whole
some food you want and these tablets
will digest it A cure results, because
all the stomach needs is a rest, which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets give by do
ing the work of digestion.
Druggists sell these tablets at so cts
per package. Little book on stomach

road from Roswell is now built to
within 10 miles of Amarillo and the con-
nection will be made as speedily as
possible. The distance between Wash
burn and Amarillo is 80 miles, and the
Santa Fe has made traffic arrange
ments with the Fort Worth & Denver
for the joint use of the Fort Worth
tracks between those two points.
The change in terminal points was
decided upon a few days ago by the
Pecos Valley road, because, as they
said, they found Amarillo to be a bet
ter freight point for them than Wash
burn. Contracts for building a round
house and railway shops at Amarillo
will be let at once.

theater. The company supporting the
comedians is headed by Miss lola Pom

Fourteen pleasing specialties are intro

stranded in the south, Monroe and Hart

PEcos VALLEY TERMINUS.
Important Railway Agreement En-
tered Into at Amarillo, Tex.

President Ripley of the Santa Fe,
President Hagerman of the Pecos Val
ley and President Jones of the Fort
Worth & Denver railways, met at ANA
rilIo and signed a contract whereby it
was agreed that the extension of the
Pecos Valley road shall terminate at
Amarillo, instead of at Washburn, as
at first contemplated, and that the San
ia F'e will run trains over the Fort
Worth & Denver between Washburn
and Amarillo, connecting at the latter
point with the Pecos Valley road.
