A SUMMARY OF KANSAS EVENTS.
Westefn Union Filea saIt.

The Western Union Telegraph com
pany filed suit I'D the federal court at
Topeka on the 97th I'd enjoin the Kansas
court of visitation from trying the case
brought against 1t by J. G. Maxwell, Of
Mcpherson, to compel II to put in the
rates as fixed by the new law, Judge
Hook granted temporary restraining
order, returnable June Is. In the
petition filed the Western Union at
tacks the constitutionality Of the law
creating the court OF visitation and
also the validity of the law reducing
telegraph tolls. Both laws were
passed at the extra session Of the
Legislature. The court of visitation
succeeds the railroad board and
is given control Of railroads, telegraphs
and express companies. The new tele-
graph law reduces tolls on ten word
messages within the state to Is cents
and one cent for each additional word.
Newspaper tolls are fixed ut one-third
of cent day rate and one-sixth of n
cent night rate. There is talk that the
court of visitation will pay no atten-
ton whatever to Judge Hooks order
and go ahead and try the case fled by
Maxwell on the ground that the fed
eral court has no authority to enjoin Q
state from enforcing state law.

New Church at Old Orchard.

At Old Orchard at p. m. july 9th.
ground was broken for the new Methodist
Episcopal church at the corner of Wash
ington street and Fountain avenue. A
large number of Methodists from Saco.
Biddeford, Old Orchard and other Maine
cities attended the exercises which were
held at the entrance to the great amphi-
theatre in the grove
Rev. DR.. l.. B. Bates of Boston presided,
and his eloquent remarks were listened to
with much interest by the assemblage.
He spoke of the thousands of churches
that are being built in this country every
year and the great amount of good that
was done.
''Some three years ago, ~ said DR.. Bates,
while coming from convention, met
the late Robert Ingersoll on the train.
We talked about many things, and finally
the agnostic spoke Of the large number of
churches that were being built every year.
Mr.. Ingersoll brushed back his bushy
hair with his hand and after a moment s
meditation said 1T puzzles me to know
how long this thing is going to keep up"
81 replied, well, Colonel, it puzzles
me, but it would not go on if God did not
rule the universe
Rev. B. G. Wentworth of Berwick, for
merly presiding elder of the eastern
Maine conference, made an address which
created a sensation. He said that he was
greatly stirred up and he thought that he
he had good reason to be, for since coming
to Old Orchard he had been told that last
Sunday $500 had been taken over the bar
of hotel at the beach. He urged the
members of the new edifice to turn their
batteries upon the saloons and hotel bar
rooms at this resort and drive them out of
town. He said if the churches of Old
Orchard would unite their forces in the
name of God and fight this great evil, in
short time no hotel bar or saloon would
any longer disgrace the place. He stated
that he had been informed that the high
sheriff had said that if he could find six
solid men who would stand behind him
he would wage war against rum here.
An Old Orchard man who was present
shouted, "And the Old Orchard deputy
says the same thing and we will find the
men to stand behind him, too.''
Nearly every one present shouted
"Amen," and much excitement prevailed.

the man who turns to Nature and lets her
help him may yet save himself Medical
science knows this, and its highest authori-
ties affirm that the utmost medical skill
can do is to help Nature.
The great success of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery in curing wasted bodies,
weak lungs, and obstinate and lingering
coughs, is based the recognition of
this fundamental scientific truth Golden
Medical Discovery" supplies Nature with
body building, tissue repairing, muscle
making materials, in condensed and con-
centrated form. With this help Nature
supplies the strength to throw off diseases
establish the digestive and nutritve organs
in sound health, purify and enrich the
blood, and nourish the nerves.
If your dealer offers something just as
good it is probably better fo, him it
pays better But you are thinking of the
cure not the profit, so there's nothing just
as good for you. Say SO.
In letter received from A d. Weller, Esq,

Since the Children Went Away.

1t don't seem no how like Twin
Since the children went away;
The ole house is awful quiet
On this chilly winter day.
Yes, l hear their voices ringin'
Like they used to long ago
When they played up in the garrett
Meath the rafters droopin' low.
How they used to run an frolic-
Merry lads an lassies all,
Plavin' 'mong the 'erb an popcorn
Where the dusky shaders fall.
An the girls they made swing;
How they used to romp at taggin'
An the nosy posey ring.
How they used to run an scamper
Down the wide old hallway stairs
But they were proper passed.
Durin' holy evenin' prayers.
Well, they left us ; an the shaders
Seem to have deeper gray,
An, the house is awful quiet
Since the children went away
Every chair an table Hammer,
Sets dear old fancy free
For they seem to bring the faces
OF the children back to me.
An each corner hides phantom
Hid among the shaders gray
But my eyes grow misty lookin'
For the dear ones gone away.

INDIAN REMEDY FOR FEVER,
An Englishman in South America
Made Immune to the Disease.

From Chambers Journal.
The world moves fast. but it is possible
that some of its most brilliant discoveries
have not gone beyond the simple practices
of uncivilized peoples, A Jamaica Journal
ist gives his personal experience of how the
Indians of South America not only cure a
patient of the most dangerous stage of ma
lariai fever, but also, by incubation. insure
for many years his immunity from future
attacks. Other travellers have had similar
experience. and no less an authority than
Sir Clements Markham has testified to the
efficiency of these Indian cures. The
writer, after long escaping the terrible
tevers of the country, succumbed at last.
He says:
II lay in my hammock, ravaged by an
aH-consuming fever, with death in sight
Medical aid, supposing it to be of any use

ney. n few miles from our camp was an

turned with my friend the old chief and

well~knoWn symptoms of febriIe collapse.
THE peiman tended me. administering
internal remedies by means of roughly de-
injections. Then followed the inevitable
mummery, when l was shut up with the
peiman, and enough noise was made TO IN
dicate a dozen people inside.
AT about 3 o'clock in the morning, when
the peiman issued forth and my compan-
ions We're allowed a sight of me- | was

WASHINGTON CLUB OWNERSHIP.
A Decisive Meeting to be Held This
Evening.

The indications are that the ownership OF
the Washington Base Ball Club Will be
settled one way or the other within the
next twenty-four hours. j. Earl wagner
arrived In the city last evening and has
been in close conference today with the
local promoters of the syndicate who are
DESTROYS of buying the club. A final con-
ference will probably be held tonight, Mr..
Wagner remaining over to be on hand
should any definite action be taken. ana it
is more than probable that the real situa-
ton will be known after this meeting. Re
feTring to the subject this morning, Mi.
Wagner soid to an Evening Star reporter:
The annual meeting of the league next
month is near at hand and l am compelled
to bring the negotiations to an end. one
way or the other. / am DESTROYS of selling
the club on account of business and family
reasons. and believe | am offering d great
bargain to the Washington people But if
l to remain in control of the Senators
l want to know II at once, so / go
about repairing my fences for next season.
1t seems like an old chestnut to speak
of strengthening the club but / believe |
can do it, and the annual meeting is the
time to DO 1t, as all the different owners
will be there looking for trades. Should the
local people fail to purchase the club | be-
Neve l can make several good trades and
perhaps make the Sena tors drawing cards
FtXt season. j make no promises this time
but hope for the best, as / know on.y too
well that Washington people will patrOnize
a winning team.
AS to what the Washington promoters
will get should they acquire control of the
ciubI can state most emphatiCdlly that there
are six players on the team whom | can sell
for $4,000 inside the next twenty-four
hCurs, As 10000 Is al | ask for the club,
this leaves but $1,000 for the grounds and
improvements and franchise in the Ma
tCnal League which cannot be taken away
from the owners unless they are willing to
part with the same
We have lost money in but one season
during our ownership of the Washington
club, and | am positive that placed in the
hands of local people, the club would be
successful
Should the Washington promoters take
the most discouragns views of the pres
tnt base bal situation to the effect that

from them unless its full value is paid for
