DEATH OF WILLIAM SPEER
Kansas City Gazette Pays Tribute Il
nereayed Father.

OF the death OF William Speer, whose
funeral occurred in this city last Sunday
with elaborate ceremonies after the
church service at the home on ST. Francis
avenue conducted by Rev. Henry Thayer
of the Congregational church, the Kan
sas City Gazette says:
How our heart goes out to John
Speer! Past eighty, and buries another
splendid boy. He is one of the fathers
Of Kansas, one Of the most heroic char
acters in the heroic history of the state.
We set type for him in territorial days
and later he set type for US. He had two
boys killed in the Quantreu raid, another
a year or so later was accidentally killed,
and then a son-in-law was mangled TO
death on a railroad. William Speer, his
youngest son, a prominent railroad man,
died at Wichita, Thursday the %. The
mother, who died years ago, was a noble
woman. The Wichita Eagle says that he
was the last OF the family. There must
be some mistake about this. Where is
Hardy Speer, a splendid boy, who served
an apprenticeship TO the printing business
with us?''

HOUSE INCREASES CAPACITY
Increased Business Demands Greater
Handling Facilities

For some time past, the steadily in
creasing business Of the W. 5. Grant Com
mission company has caused an incon-
venience and embarrassment for storage
room. Their quarters at 10 and III South
Topeka avenue have been crowded to their
utmost capacity with stock TO supply at
short notice their growing trade through
out this territory. This caused a constant
expense for demurrage to the railroads as
they could not possibly unload their cars
fast enough. To enable them the better
to handle the daily heavy receipts and
outgoing shipments, they have now leased
the commodious brick warehouse and stor-
age room for years known as the Exton
warehouse, built expressly for such Dur-
poses and fronting right on the Santa Fe
tracks on Fifth avenue. This relieves the
company Of the congested condition which
so seriously annoyed them for a long
time.

LAST BILL IS PAID
Secretary Lockwood Makes a
Detailed Statement of
STREET FAIR EXPENSES
Cost a Total of Nearly Eleven
Thousand Dollars.

The last bill against the street fair was
paid yesterday, and Secretary Lockwood
will submit a hnaI statement today OF
the receipts and disbursements. and this
will close the last act connected with the
biggest street fair Kansas ever saw.
The summary Of Secretary Lockwood s
statement is: Total cost Of fair, SO. 1886.
Subscriptions paid. s4.lOO; receipts from
privileges. midway. booths, ETC., $500.
Total receipts, $1,000.
From this it will be seen that the short
age was only a matter OF a few hundred
dollars, which would not have existed at
all had all the amounts subscribed been
paid The last bill has been paid. When
it was seen that there would be a short
age merchants subscribed and paid it in
q few minutes.
The street fair Of 1899 in Wichita is done
and its last yestige gone, but the Wichita
street fair of 1860 viii eclipse this year 5
totally. President Cohn, who Iabored IN
tiringly for the recent fair, announces
this. Secretary Lockwood, who executed
the plans with the most rosy success,
says it can be done. Nearly half the men
who subscribed this year have indicated
a Willingness to double the amount for
next year. Wichita's second street fair
will beat the world.

ED TURNER STILL IN PRISON
Mexican Authorities Continue to
Deny Him a Hearing.

Ed Turner, formerly Missouri Pacific
engineer, running between this city and
FL Dorado, is still in jail at Oraziba, Mex
leo, with no better show for his release
than when he first wrote his wife in this
city last summer. He claims that the
Mexican authorities viii not give him a
trial. but persist in keeping him in prison
without hearing or chance to prove
his innocence or secure counsel. Turner
succeeded. through the Intervention Of
friends, in getting the United States au-
thorities to intervene In his behalf, but
it seems that they have not been able to
do anything for him. Since he secured
their Intervention another engineer has
been incarcerated in this same prison. and
he writes to his wife here that there are
now four American engineers confined in
the Oraziba prison, and that their condi-
ton is becoming almost intolerable.

refused to ask an extension of the fran
chise while the matter was in litigation,
for he couldn't see the use. He thought
that the injunction suit kept the Bur-

WHAT DOES TT.

The finest forces are the strongest
You may batter away at stone with
hammer, using more physical exer-
ton in a minute than telegraph
operator would in a month, and yet
his blow will be heard around the
! world, while the sound of yours dies
away in few yards. In both cases
the forces used are physical, but the
finer force is the most far reaching
| and pervasive. A cannon-ball weigh
ing thousand pounds can be driven
from gun at the rate of several hum
dred feet in a second; but light trav-
els nearly Two hundred thousand miles
in the same time. The cannon ball
strikes only to kill and destroy. The
light is life giving. 1t strikes the
seed hidden in the earth, and the mir
acle of birth and growth results.
These illustrations of the superior
ity of finer forces are all on the ma
terial plane, and they might be multi
piled indefinitely. But there are forces
which as far transcend the light as
that out runs the snail. Light and
electricity, powerful as they are, pro-
duce effects which are temporary and
transient.
The forces of the soul life are limit
ed neither by time nor space. Words
written by hands that have long since
mouldered in the dust still quicken
the pulses and shape the thoughts of
men.
Love and hate are potent to affect
human hearts and human conditions,
not for an hour nor day merely, but
for years and ages to come. Here,
. again, the finest forces are the strong
est. Alexander, Caesar and Napoleon,
with war and carnage, may make
themselves feared by their fellow
men, and smear the pages of history
with blood; but such men have never
exerted a Transforming effect upon
human society, nor elevated the ideals
of mankind. 1t is the Man of Sor-
rows, with life of suffering and sac
rifice, who has most profoundly af
fected the race, and whom M illions
today follow with ecstatic devotion,
ready even to lay down their lives
for his sake.
Love is stronger than hate; life is
more potent than death; the spiritu-
al moulds the material; the things
that seem the strongest are really the
weakest. 1t isn't forty ton guns that
are needed to regenerate mankind,
but the spirit of love and self-sacri-
flee.

She Paid the Fine.

The Boston Herald says: ga man
was brought into the Springfield police
court the other day charged with neg
Iecting to support his wife. He plead
ed guilty and was fined 500. Thereup-
on his neglected wife stepped up to the
clerks desk and paid the fine, which
was promptly refunded to her under
the provision of the law relative to
nonsupport cases, which provides for
the payment of the amount of the fine
imposed on the husband to the wife
when the court so directs. The law ap-
pears to be based on the right princi-
pie, but it operates queerly sometimes,
as in this case.'

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the largest sale of
any medicine in the civilized world. Your
mothers and grandmothers never thought of using
anything else for Indigestion or Biliousness
Doctors were scarce, and they seldom heard of
Appendicitis, Nervous Prostitution or Heart
Failure, etc, They used August Flower to clean
out the system and stop fermentation of und-
gested food, regulate the action of the liver,
stimulate the nervous and organic action of the
system, and that is all they they took when feeling
dull and bad with headaches and other aches. You
only need a few doses OF Green's August Flower
in liquid form, to make you satisfied there is
nothing serious the matter with you Sample
