tory of the state
Mr.. J. Y. Brewer of st. Paul, Mimi,
last year made a survey of the state with
a view of determining Coronado's route,
and recently published volume contain
ing the results of his archaeological in>
vestigations. The explorations were in
complete, however, and at the annual
meeting of the State Historical society
he brought his work to the attention of
that body and asked its cooperation in
completing the survey. Accordingly,
Messrs. Ware, Guthrie and Elliott were
appointed as committee to cooperate
with Mr.. Brewer in a continuance of his
Investigations.
Today letter was received from Mr..
Brewer by Judge Adams, secretary of the
historical society, suggesting that the
work be taken up at least by the LIST Of
March. It is probable that the commit
tee will arrange for further explorations
at once.
Mr.. Brewer is inclined to locate the
terminus of Coronado's journey at a point
10 miles due south of Manhattan.
The researches may even be extended
to the Spanish archives. if there are any
records of Coronado's explorations there.

PRINCIPLE ABOVE ALL
Annie Diggs Says That by Rights
Mr.. King Should Remain
Librarian.

Mrs Annie L. Diggs, the newly ap-
pointed state librarian, is sorry that the
man whom she succeeded in Office, Mr..
James L. King will be compelled to give
up his position. A sympathetic ma
ture and a thorough belief in civil SER
vice law is responsible for this feeling
on the part of Mrs. Diggs.
"Of course am not sorry that I got
the appointment" said she, but I re-
gret to see Mr.. King go, after having
worked mere for several years and I'M
Outstanding all the details of the work.
I had hoped that he would receive some
federal appointment, but I aTdly think
now that he will. am a firm believer
in civil service, and I think that every
position, federal and state, which IS
purely routine and of a clerical nature
should be included under the civil serv-
ice law. I am very happy indeed to
have received the appointment as state
librarian, but had the position been
placed under the civil service law even
after I had expected to get it, I would
have said amen to the law and felt per-
fectly satisfied"

The conductor came in and said that

was crowded and asked BayleSS to go
back to the chair car so the men would
return. Bayless started, but he only got
as far as the door of the chair car. The

by the door and when he saw Bayless
coming he held the door shut and bolt

In New York?-Request Employees to

There is at least one New York man
who according to his own statement
is a firm friend of Kansas. He is Mr..
F. c. Babcock president of the Bank of

of the finest in the state. Recently,
Secretary of State Bush sent corpora

to all companies chartered under the
laws of the state, and the blanks were
forwarded to Mr.. Babcock to fill out.

says:

NO SLEEP FOB THREE MONTHS.
One Cause Of sleepIessness That Can
Be Readily Overcome.

Mr. VIM. Handschu of 18th st. Cotton
Alley, Pittsburg, Pa, expresses himself
as follows regarding the new remedy
for that common and obstinate disease,
piles: Il take pleasure in stating that
I was so afflicted with piles that for
three months 1 got no regular sleep;
I became completely Frustrated; the
doctors did me no good; my brother
told me of the new remedy for piles,
the Pyramid Pile Cure; 1 purchased
from my druggist three 5O-cent boxes
and they completely cured me. 1 am
once more at my work, and but for
this excellent medicine I should be on
my back. I take great pleasure in writ
ing this letter because so many people
are sufferers from this trouble who like
myself did not know where to look for
a permanent, reliable, safe cure
Experience with the Pyramid Pile
Cure in the past three years has demon
strated to the medical profession, as
we'll as to thousands of sufferers from
piles, that it is the safest and most eff
fectual pile cure ever offered to the
public, containing no opiates or poisOns
of any kind, painless and convenient to
handle, and being sold by druggists at
so cents and 81 per box, is within the
reach of every sufferer.
Very frequently two or three boxes
have made a complete cure of chronic
cases that had not yielded to other
remedy for years.
There is scarcely a disease more ag-
graVatlng and obstinate to cure than
the various forms of piles and it is a
common practice to use ointments.
salves and similar preparations con-
tanning dangerous poisons to remove
the trouble. The Pyramid has super
ceded all of these Intellectual remedies
and no one suffering with any rectal
trouble viii make any mistake in Civ
ing the Pyramid a trial.
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble send to the Pyramid Drug Co.
Marshall, Mich, for a valuable little
book on piles, describing all forms of
lan
of cure.
Any druggist can furnish the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure as it is the best known
ana most popular remedy for piles, and
If you ask him he can doubtless refer YOU
to many people in your vicinity who
have been cured completely by it.

Omaha at 3:45 in the afternoon, a rec
ord of SIT miles in hours fiat, the
fastest long distance run recorded. The
run from North Platte to Omaha, 2901@
