NJ Jones, late chief of police of the city
of Wichita, the city lost an official ever
vigilant in the discharge OF mis- duty,
painstaking and intelligent in the dscov-
cry Of the public duty imposed by his
official trust, and thus he was firm, exer-
cising always good judgment, the dread
Of wrong doers, but tempering justice
with deserving mercy.
Resolved, That the city has lost a citi-
zen who was large-hearted, full Of the
milk of human kindness, by nature a
prince among his fellow men, who bub-
bled over with good humor as a noun
tain spring issues clear water. He was
loyal to his city and earned the pro-
found love its citizens gave him. We
shall not soon see another such.
Resolved, That we take this solemn
pleasure in bearing testimony to our de-
ceased friends worth as an official and
citizen. and direct that the city clerk
copy these resolutions in full in the Off
cial proceedings of the council, and that
a copy be furnished the press of the city
and a copy furnished the family of the
deceased. JAMES w. BURTON,

IMPERFECT DRAINS.
Care Should Be Taken That the lmpuri
ties Be PROPERLY Carried OFF.

Every one knows of the fatal results
which follow the stoppage of the drains
in a house.
Queen Victoria's husband, the Prince
Consort died from poisonous germs,
which were generated in the palace by
the stoopage Of the drains.
The kidneys, among their many other
functions, act as drains to the body.
purified. leaving behind mass of effete
matter, which it is their duty TO eject
from the system.
When, however, the kidneys become
congested and all clogged up. this refuse
matter accumulates and becomes an
active poison, and, in course OF time, In
fects the whole man, and eventually, if
the cause is not removed, it occasions
sudden death, the patient drowning, as
it were in his own secretions.
The symptoms which Nature puts forth
like danger signals TO tell us that the
kidneys no longer do their duty are too
numerous to set forth.
Nearly always women's peculiar all
ments in their more aggravated and pro-
tracted forms are traceable to this
source and rheumatism, in all its varied
phases; while pneumonia and Brights
disease are but the elimination of an
organic trouble which, had it been
treated organically and not symptomat-
icalIy, could not possibly have had any
such fatal termina ton.
Coughs and colds, strange as 1t may
seem, are oftentimes symptoms Of trouble
in the kidneys.
What must be done, then, In these
cases?
1t is surely unwise to treat symptoms,
when we can at once heal the organ
from whence the symptoms rise.
Let US then at once go to the root OF
the trouble and heal the kidneys.
There is remedy, known all the world
over, that will strengthen them, so that
they can perform their functions; feeding
them and cleansing them in such a mar
velous manner that the patient immedi-
ately feels the good work that is going
on, and in a few weeks is able to join the
ranks Of the many thousands who CRATE
fully acknowledge that they owe health
and strength, and sometimes life itself, t
this unfailing remedy, Warmers SAFE

Ell DORADO FAIR A SUCCESS
Fine Short Horn Cattle Exhibit One
of the Features.

Many Wichita resident stockmen and
those having interests at the stock yards
attended the FL Dorado fair and were
well pleased with the fine display in all
divisions and sections, especially in the
Short-horn deartment. Many of the But
Ter county exhibitors there who had on
display fine stock are regular patrons Of
the Wichita market and ship large guam
titles of stock here for sale and yardage
and feed in transit or for transfer
Among them are w. J. Snodgrass Of Cor
don and his son-in-law, Mr.. Joe Haskell
of that same neighborhood, both of
whom had fine displays lof cattle. The
following communication from one of the
committee tells of one of the above sue
cessful stockmen, who, for thirty years,
has been closely identified with Kansas
stock interests:
Never have the people of Butler coun-
ty, or the state of Kansas seen finer lex
hibits Of Short-horn cattle than appeared
at the FL Dorado fair, among the choic-
est and finest bred being those of w. J.
Snodgrass of Gordon. His bull, Scott
8 years old, weighed 900 pounds and IS
| a magnificent specimen. There is none
better in the state. First premium was
awarded him. His bull calves. all under
year old. were awarded both first and
second premiums, an unusual thing.
| Cows, three years and over, awarded
! second premium. For young herd under
two years old. he was awarded first pre-
MUM. Also several other first and sec

CONTESTS IN THE SENATE
Three Seats in the Upper House of Congress
Disputed.
Credentials of Senator's Scott, Clarke
and Quay to Be In
guired Into.

There will be several interesting contests
in the Senate when Congress meets. There
are always contests for seats in the House
and sometimes the Congress has nearly
expired before they are all settled, but it is
not usual for senator's seat to be con-
tested.
When the next Congress meets, however,
in December there will be a complex situa-
ton. The seat of Mr.. Scott of West Vir-
ginia is to be contested on the ground that
he did not have a legal majority of the
legislature, and that his election was by an
agreement. How much this contest will
amount to it is hard to say but it is not
now very seriously thought of.
more serious and much more interest
ing contest will be that over the Montana
senatorship, in which democrats are in
volved on both sides. II is said that very
sensational developments may be expected
in this contest The charge made by the
enemies OF Mr.. Clarke, who has the certiti-
cate of election, is that his election was &C
compllshed through bribery on d grand
scale. 1t is asserted by them that it cost
him something in the neighborhood Of
SioO,OO to get the election. At this time
dlsbar1nent proceedings are being conduct
ed IN the supreme court of Montana against
ms attorney. on the charge that he was an
agent through which brides were made or
probably some time before Congress meets,
and when Congress assemblies the fight will
be transferred to Washington.
The Case of Mr.. Quay.
Even more interesting than this contest
Will be the discussion and determination Of
whether Mr.. Quay is to be given a seat on
the appointment by Governor Stone. 1t is
anticipated that this case Will be deter
minedly contested. In spite of the fact that
Mr.. Quay cannot be seated without a num-
Der OF senators stultifying themselves, the
Quay people insist that a majority will
vote to give him his seat Every state in
the Union will take interest in this con-
test, llasmuch as Il decision in favor of
Mr.. Quay will be apt to lean to deadlocks
IN all legislatures in the future where
there Is any rivalry for the election and
result hnally il what would amount strict
~ TO the election of senator, by legislatures
becoming a dead letter, the selection al
ways being made by governors, like ordi-
nary state patronage.
