cured a large quantity of bogus bills,
which are so cleverly executed that the

OF being spurious. Things Of great valLe
are always selected for imitation, notably
Hostetter's Stomach Bltters, which has

BIG DAMAGE SUIT.
Mail Agent Wants $4,000 From
Santa Fe For Injuries.

Wichita Nov 16-E. E. Cutler, for
merly mail agent on the run from La
Junta, Colorado, to Albuquerque, N. M,
has sued the Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe Railway company for $4,000 dam
ages for injuries he received in a head
end collision near Las Vegas, N. NJ,
on the 25th day of last June. His petit
ton has been filed in the district court.
The petitioner alleges that while he
was engaged in his duties as mail clerk
for the government, and entitled to safe
passage on the defendants cars, and
while in the exercise of due and proper
care for his own safety, a collision Oc
CURED near East Las Vegas, between
a passenger train and a freight train.
This collision, Cutler alleges, was the
direct result of carelessness of the
agents and employees managing the road
and the trains. 1t is alleged that in
this collision the mail car was partly de-
mOlished and wrecked and Cutler was
thereby knocked unconscious and
greatly and permanently injured in
and upon his right shoulder, in and up
on his head, body, chest, limbs, spine
and nervous system, from which he
was caused to suffer great physical and
mental pain and will suffer same the
rest of his life. Cutler further alleges
that his injuries have disabled him from
carrying on his usual aVOcatIOn as mail
agent or from ever performing any
kind of manual labor in the ordinary
avOcatiOns of life, and has rendered him
4 permanent cripple 1LCdIletD1e u earn
ing a livelihood or enjoying the Ordi-
nary pleasures of life, and will cause
him continuous further inconvenience
and expense. Cutler says he was get
ting $75 per month for his work as mail
agent but was in line of promotion and
was to be promoted to a 500 run about
the time the accident occurred. The ac-
cident of course, is responsible for his
failure to get the better run which he
had l2bOred so earnestly to secure. Mr..
Cutler thinks he is entitled to damages
in the sum of $4,000, together with
costs of the suit.

Thursday, November 9, to OttOn, six
miles west, for the purpose Of captur-

same night Colonel Carpenter, with the
Eighteenth regiment and battery G, Of

from Jaro to connect with General

to return to JarO on account of the

ROARING EARS
Caused BY Coffee Drinking.

ct was twenty years old before I
learned to like coffee, but about that
age I was occupied where I felt the
need of a stimulant of some sort, and
took up coffee in earnest.
When I tried leaving off coffee, sick
headache invariably followed every
breakfast without coffee. 50 I stuck to
it but other troubles set in. A serious
catarrhal condition set in and grew
worse until L began to lose sleep and
the ears began that peculiar roaring
sound, which continued steadily. I
finally lost the use of one ear altOgeth-
er, and the other one became very bad.
Il am satisfied that coffee was the
cause of the nervous troubles that
showed in the loss of my hearing. for
when I left it of and took up Postum
Food Coffee, my hearing began to i'm
prove, and my general condition rapid
" changed for the better. I feel less
on a strain all the time That terrible
pulsation has practically left my ears;
1 sleep very much better; bowels are
never cOnstipated now as they were
while I was using coffee. I am rapidly
getting back to where I was seven
years ago. You can Imagine that I
esteem Postum Food Coffee very high
" indeed" Chas. WOrrall, 622 Law
renee St, Topeka, Kan.
Postum is a natural food drink, strong
in the elements that build uD the
nervous system throughout the body. It
would richly pay any one who is trOu-
bled with coffee drinking, to leave off
coffee and take Postum in its place.

HELD DEATH AT BAY.
Man Lived by Will Power Till His
Mother Arrived.

Wichita, Nov. 16.-The spectacle of a
dying man holding to life by a wonder
full exhibition of mere will power, made
possible by a longing to see his mother
before the fiImy mists gathered before
his eyes, was enacted at the boarding
house of Mrs. J. c.. Land, corner of
First street and MOsley avenue, Mon
day night. After his mother arrived the
man died, and in his last illness there
is a pathetic story of an ex-cowboy' ;
death
These are the circumstances sur
rounding the death of c. E. Pyle, lately
of ClaTemOre, I. t, who died at Mrs.
Lands boarding house yesterday morn
ing at o'clock. A week ago Mr. Pyle
was on his way to St. Louis where he
expected to find physicians who could
successfully treat his dreadful disease.
He was accompanied by his wife. When
they arrived here the sick man became
so III from the ride that he had to be
removed from the train and was taken
to st. Francis hospital When it was
learned that he could not be cured, the
sad journey back to his home was
Rock Island depot, the physicians met
the party and informed them that Mr.
Pyle could not possibly stand the trip,
that he would die on the train. Then
he was removed to Mrs. Lands board
ing house. DR.. KirkwOOd was called to
do what he could for the dying man.
"Wiu 1 not live till mother cOmeS?'
asked the feeble voice, of the physician.
4 do not believe you cam said DR..
KirkwoOd, knowing the most effective
medicine would be useless.
Then" said he to his wife and broth
er, you may send for the minister.
But. oh, I wish mother We're here
IF I should die before mother comes,
he whispered, tell her that died as
she kished.'
Mrs. Pyle arrived on the night train
from Oklahoma. She was taken to the
bedside of her son, who was still able to
recognize her, and they talked over the
a
day she staid by his bedside, and at
O'Clock next morning he died.
