An eXceeulHSly coiIIiion aiiu uah- gerously significant condition. A warning which must be needed, or, as with the express train which fails to regard the dan
 ger signal, disaster must follow. A sure indication of thin, weak, i'm poverished blood. A certain ad- monition that the blood is not properly feeding the nerves, tis- sues and organs of the body.
 An imperative demand for the tonic, vitalizing effect of Hoods Sarsa- parilla upon the blood.
 Weak, nervous, tired men and wom- en are found everywhere. Men 7 strive too hard to "keep their ends up," women too anxiously work con their nerves" to meet the demands of home and society all have too little sleep, and the excessive drain on strength and nervous energy will soon com pletely ruin health.
 The strength must be built up by pure blood, and the nerves must also find in pure blood the proper nerve food. For this purpose nothing equals Hoods Sarsaparilla.
 The thousands of wonderful cures il has accomplished, the like oi which no other medicine and nc combination of medicines car show, prove it's curative merit prove that it has never beer equallcd as blood medicine prove that Hoods Sarsaparilla ii indeed the ideal spring medicine the best nerve and stomach tonic the one true blood purifier.

TRADING DULL.
Sluggishness of Stocks Marked
the Saturday Market.
Spanish Question Remains the Dominant
Influence in Wall street-speculators
Uncertain as to Outcome.


New York, March 19,-The action, or
lack of action, of today's stock market
can only be interpreted as the accurate
reflection Of the overshadowing uncer-
tainty of the Cuban question. Last Sat-
urday the threatening aspect of the sit
uation coupled with. the. recollection of
the developments of the preceding Sun
day in the suggestion of the recall of
General Lee, led to reckless short selling
by the traders. driving the market to
a point even lower than the Monday
market succeeding the Lee incident. The
punching administered to the reckless
bears in the rebound of last Monday
made them extremely cautious about
putting out short lines in today's mar
ket. Even the shorts who were driven
to cover in yesterdays late furry over
unWarranted rumors of a compromise
with Spain did not venture to renew
their selling. The consequence was an
almost lifeless market, as no one is ready
TO take the long side of the market at
this time.

over narrow range. Only a little over
100000 shares changed hands during the

This entails the employment of extra
men for that express purpose and
vast deal of extra office work besides.
The weekly payment habit was first
fostered by the installment houses
and the industrial insurance COM
panies. With respect to these 1t had
logical basis, but it extended to coal
end pianos and crayon portraits, and
finally to bicycles.
'.It was the bike craze, COZ 5ied per-
hsps with the rise of the strictly

Home Without a Hostess.

On the threshold pause and lister
For a loving voice knew so we'll;
Where the bright sunbeams used to glisten.
And the fleecy snowflakes softly fell.
Vivid pictures that adorn the walls
Show the tracing of her magic hand.
As the morning light serenely falls
Like streaks Of gold across the strand.
But not a word breaks the silent spell.
And deep tranquility reigns profound.
Where once the familiar voice of Belle
Pervaded the ambient space around.
When .Eolian strains have died away
On the ripples of limpid stream
There fingers that sound we fain would
stay,
And calls us back to memory's dream.
The dew drops feed the brilliant flowers
While the butterflies are sweetly sleep
Ing;
Where the night contains the redolent
hours
And the myrtle vines are softly creeping.
Then the waving. restless aspen trees.
Like the heart In sadness ever grieves;
When the nights are fraught with mourn
full breeze
And the days with faded autumn leaves.

Progress depends upon what we
are, rather than upon what We
may have to encounter. One man
is stopped by sapling lying across
the road; another, passing that
way, picks up the hindrance and
converts it into help in crossing
the brook just ahead. We are too
apt to think that our progress in
a given case will depend solely
upon the obstacles we may run
against. 1t is more likely to de-
pend upon what runs against the
obstacles.

a Mexican ox-train was going
through town on its way to Leav-
enworth, and that the report heard
was the cracking of their whips.
He was very soon disabused OF
this illusion, as the firing became
general. Lawrence at that time
was perhaps little larger than
Vinita and in about two and half
hours 145 persons had been mas
sacred and much of the city burn
ed, with loss of but one by the
guerrillas-a man named Skaggs.
After the raiders were gone a
negro put rope around the dead
body of this man and started TO
drag it about town, but Mr.. Shaw
compelled him, forcibly, to desist.
Subsequently the bitterness of the
survivors overcame judgment and
the body of Skaggs was burned.
The town was without any means
of defense, most of the able bodied
male portion of the population be-
ing in the service, which accounts
tor the immunity from disaster
which QuantrellPs men enjoyed.
The first attack. was upon a few
recruits who had not yet drawn
their arms and equipments, and
who occupied four or five tents,
all of whom were killed. One
reason so great number of citi-
zens were killed was because
many of them surrendered, sup
posing they would be treated as
prisoners, but were ruthlessly
shot down instead. Mr.. Shaw is
not the only survivor of the Law
renee massacre residing in this
vicinity and it is reported that the
raiders are also represented. The
sacking of Lawrence is justified by
those who took part in it by the
assertion that western Missouri
suffered quite as much from the
depredations of the Kansas "red- |
legs" or jayhawkers, as did east
ern Kansas by the confederate
guerrillas, and that Lawrence was
the headquarters of the free state
people-their enemy.

The regular session of the ma
tional council will meet one month
from next Monday, and while it is
difficult to fortsll with any degree
of accuracy just what will be at
tempted in the way of legislation,
it is pretty safe TO say steps will
be taken to bring about a new
agreement with the Dawes COM
mission in lieu of the Curtis act.
In fact there is little else that
could be done, as ii is only with
the sanction of the government
that any act of council becomes
effective.
