Cured By
DR.. Miles Nervine.

An active mind suffering from over
exertion, worry, trouble or the cares of
business, demands from the body a
greater amount of fuel for the vital fires
than the digestive organism can supply.
1t requires a certain amount of vital
force to operate the human machine,
and when all the available supply of
force is absorbed by the over worked
brain, there is nothing left for the stom-
ach. 1t is easy now to understand why
irritability and dyspepsia have become
almost synonymous; why a nervous
person is-usually so very particular and
capricious about food. 1t is an almost
undisputed fact that no marked prog
ress can be made toward the ultimate

HOW THEY DO THERE.
In Wellington the Populists and the
Democrats Treat Each Other Fair.

A c. Lamb of Wellington, a member
of the Omaha exposition commission
appointed by Governor Leedy, believes
in practical politics, or as he expresses
it, the exercise of good common sense
in making preparations for campaigns"
Mr.. Lamb is chairman of the Sumner
county Populist committee. having held
the position for ten or twelve years. He
said today:
'sIn Sumner county we have perfect
harmony, brought about by fair and
generous course towards our allies. If
a Populist is elected to office he ap-
points a Democratic assistant. If Dem
ocrat gets a place he names a Populist.
In this way we have kept up a close or
ganization and one which is aggressive
and united in a campaign.
I'VE are united in the belief that the
present state ticket should be renomina-
ted from top to bottom. We have no
istration has given entire satisfaction
to our people and we want to see the
state officers reelected.
1t has been suggested that some of
the state officers retire and make room
for the Democrats. 1 am unable to say
what this will amount to but in my
opinion, unless the officers themselves,
to further their own accepted ideas of
harmony, should desire to get out of the
way, nothing of this character will be
done. 1t would be an unfortunate thing

the way. am not in favor of such ac-
ton, unless as have suggested, the Of
fcers themselves decline to accept a
denomination"
Upon being asked about the congress
sional district campaign. MI. Lamb said:
Jerry Simpson will be the Populist
nominee. So long as the Republicans
hang on to Long, Simpson will be the
Populist candidate. He can defeat
Long without any difficulty. I think
there are men just as good and just as
competent as either of them in the
Seventh district, but there is no neces-
sity of making a new fight on the old
issues. The same fight, organized and
working as it now is, is a better test
of the party's strength. There is no
doubt as to the result"

OURRIGHTS IMPAIRED
By Too Much Talk is the Opinion of
the British Attorney General

London, April 6.-The attorney gener-
al, Sir Richard Webster, Q. c., replying
in the house of commons today to the
question asked yesterday in the house
by the rear admiral, Lord Charles Ber-
esford, whether the United States, not
being a signatory of the declaration of
Paris, would, in the event of war with
Spain, be bound by it's provisions, said
the rights of neither the United States
nor Spain as belligerents were affected
by the declaration of Paris. He added
that the right of search for capture of
contraband of war undoubtedly exists,
but it was impossible to say whether
either country would search British
vessels.
Mr.. Thomas Gibson Bow1es, conserv-
alive, asked whether either Spain or the
United States had done anything to i'm
pair the common law of international
rights The attorney general replied:
Yes, there are a number of express
sions of opinion upon the part of the
United States which I think must ser
iousIy impair their rights. In regard to
Spain 1 am not aware of anything of
the Sort

SECRETARY COBURN AIDS.
Writes an Article on Kansas Products
For the Santa Fe's Book.

Secretary Coburn of the state board
of agriculture, was asked by Vice Pres
ident Paul Morton of the Santa Fe to
write something about the condition
and prospects of Kansas for the Kansas
book now being gotten up by the Santa
Fe passenger department. This book
will comprise editorials written by the
Kansas editors on Kansas Mr.. CO.
burn sent Vice President Morton ar
ticle today, of which the following is
part:
the outlook was brighter than at pres
ent; never time when people of other
states seeking a new location could find
1T to greater advantage and with better
Kansas. Their productiveneSs conSid-
cred, the best lands for all purposes of
agriculture, horticulture and stock
growing are wonderfully low, and pre-
sent possibilities as investments alone,
and on their merits as such that make
them very inviting. Such a condition
OF affairs, or at least to the same ex-
tent, can scarcely exist again.
In the markets of the world nothing
in the line of commodities is more sta
pie than the various meats and animal
products, and these, most prOf1tably pro-
duced, are evolved from the grasses.
Kansas is grasses empire, whether by
grass we mean corn, blue-Sterl, timothy,
clover, blue grass, sorghum, milletS, al
falfa or gramma. From these are
evolved hundreds of commodities for
which the world constantly hungerS
with an appetite Which feeding only
makes greater. Commodities, too, that
when ready to be sold do not have to
be bartered to the cross-road store for
kerosene, SaleratuS and horseshoe
plug but are staple in the markets
of civilization as are pounds sterling or
California bullion-alwayS good for lib
eral advances on consignments. The
geological and photographic surveys
have shown the state as wellnigh built
over vast sheets of crystal water, and
tireleSS winds, full of self-renewing en-
ergy, are readily harnessed for it's
drawing whatsoever and Wheresoever
they are hidden. No one probably,
questions our producing the pasture
and the grains in the greatest abund-
ance, and the fact that in the last ten
years we have raised more than 1,50Q
million bushels of corn, about 1862 mil
lion bushels of wheat, 1886 million BUSH
els of oats, demonstrates what we can
do in the way of grain crops, and that
our average annual output of soil pro-
ducts has been more than 1876 million
dollars in value, points out that with
our genial climate we have well-nigh
paradise for those seeking homes and
opportunities for success not only in
an agricultural line, but innumerable
others dependent on a prosperous agri-
culture

MIR. PORTER WAS SCARED.
Threatening Letters Induced Him to
Ask Special Police Protection
For Mckinley.

Washington, April 6.-The presence of
four detectives in the White House has
been the occasion of much comment. Last
week the president received several
threatening letters from cranks or IA
natics warning him he would be killed
unless he at once recognized the independ-
ence of Cuba
The president was not disturbed, but
John Addison Porter, his secretary, be-
came alarmed and without consulting the
president asked the superintendent of po-
lice to detail four detectives to protect
the president Detectives Weldon, Null
Ter Parham and McNamee were assigned.
The White House has many visitors.
From the time the doors are opened at 10
O o'clock until they are closed at there
is a steady stream of humanity passing
in and out One of the detectives is sta
toned at the entrance. To the casual OBJ
server he is only an inQuiSitive visitor
questioning the doorkeeper, but not man
or woman enters the mansion VINO IS not
closely watched by him
Another detective is stationed upstairs
directly in front of the presidents office.
Only two men are on duty at the same
time
Detective Weldon is one of the best
known detectives in the city. He was con-
nected with the police department when
President Garfield was shot and drove the
wagon that carried the wounded presi-
dent from the station to the White House.
The crowd cut the harness of the horse
and the canvas from the wagon as SOU
venirs, and Weldon, in attempting to
stop them, was roughly handled.

WHALE STORIES PLENTY.
Monsters of the Deep Reported in the
Vicinity of Baltimore.

Baltimore, April 6.-Wha1e reports are
again ripe and it is said a monster of the
deep fully thirty feet long, if not longer,
is disporting himself about in the bay in
the vicinity of Thomas point. A dispatch
from Annapolis says:
1.-The fifty foot whale that was seen off
Hackett's point, in the Chesapeake, ere
ated CONSERVATION among the mariners
of the bay. It's spoutings could be heard
for miles and the cavorting of the monster
disturbed the captains of the bay craft SO
much that they sought shelter in great
numbers in this harbor. Their fear was
that, the bay being muddy from the up
country rains, the whale would not see
them in it's mad sport and would give
them a tilt that would capsize them The
captains of the tugboats shared the gen
eral alarm and the bay was resonant with
the sound of screeching whistles, intend
ed to brighten the big fish from the bull
warks of the tugs.
The whale was first reported by Captain
Noah Messick of a schooner bound to the
Great Choptank river from Baltimore, who
sighted it near Sharp's island.
Captain Woodford of the tug Maude H.
reported sighting one disporting itself in
the vicinity of the capes. An oyster boat
captain reported two whales near the
mouth of the Rappahannock river. The
officers of the Donaldson line steamship
Kastalia, in port ten days ago, reported
a school of large dimensions just outside
the CapeS.

HARD COAL PRICE FALLS.
Reading Company Drops Rate 25
Cents-Large Surplus and Little
Demand for Anthracite.

Philadelphia, April 6.-Owing to the light
demand for anthracite coal the Philadel-
phia and Reading Coal and Iron company
has issued its spring circular to the city
and line trade, showing reduction in
most sizes of % cents a ton. This an
nouncement was not unexpected, as the
trade has been in dull state for some
time past.
While previous to yesterday the circu-
lar prices of January 1 were supposed to
be in force they were practically ignored,
a S the dealers were securing all the coal
they wanted at from Is to 20 gents cheap
err 1t is understood that all the other
companies will issue the same kind of a
circular, as such action. it is said, has
been agreed upon. Considering that there
is hardly any demand for anthracite coal.
there is not the cutting of prices that is
generally the case when stocks begin to
Increase For some time the coal COM
panies have been mining more coal than
thew could sell and there is now more on
hand than at this time of the year for
long time 1t is stated that the coal COM
panies had agreed to restrict the output OF
anthracite coal this month and next to q,
900 600 tons each month.

FIX THE BRIDGE.
Artificial Stone Walks Improperly
Laid Are Going to Pieces

Whether frost has caused it, or the ma
terial was inferior, it is a fact that some
of the artificial stone sidewalk the
new Kansas avenue Melan bridge is in
very bad condition. Near the center of
the bridge the brick pavement in the road
bed has sunken several inches and the
depression thus formed is filled with mud.
The sidewalk on the east side of the north
span is especially defective. Part of it
has cracked and is lower than the part
which is nodded onto the bridge. Large,
uneven cracks show and the surface has
become roughened.
The sidewalk was laid in winter wea-
Their and the contractor who laid it ought
to have known better. Artificial stone
walks can not be put down to last in cold
weather

as being almost certain there would be

anything but cheerful forebodings. He
stated the immense coast line was far
from being prepared to resist attacks
from even inferior vessels and that dam
age could be done this country in a few
days that it would take years to repair.
The substance of his remarks was to the
effect that the United States was in no
way prepared for war, and, although it
might in the end triumph, at the start
there would be more damage inflicted
this country than could by any possibility
be inflicted on the enemy.
