with the determination of the political
status of the Filipinos. The immed-
late object of the meeting was to effect
peace, and consequently the leaders
could consult with the civil commits
sion as to political matters. 1t was
evident that Senior Paterno was con.

Magnate Clears $4,000 on Seasons
Rlay-At Peace With johnson

Detroit, Mich, Sept. 29.-In reviewing
the year and figuring on the results
Magnate James Burns stated today that
the club has cleared up in round num-
bers about $4,000. Nothing is needed
further to show the success of the sea-
son. The management has also $4,000
invested in the Burns park Burns is
certain that Elberfeld has seen his last
days as a member of the Detroit club.
IT do not look for much change in the
American league next season." said
Burns. There will be no trouble,
think, as johnson used me handsome
~ while in Chicago and insisted that
join him on a fishing trip to the wilds
of Wisconsin. Now, 1 may do so. Min
neapolis is not the best paying town in
the league, but I do not believe they
mean to throw Saulspaugh down. They
will give him some new town. We have
not made any arrangements to retain
Yeager for next year, but if he does
not stay with Brooklyn he will be in a
Detroit uniform. He likes to play here
and likes the way he has been treated.
We may lose one other player, Pitcher
Miller, but we will not let him go with
out fight. 1 guess it is our fighting
power that makes President johnson
feel kindly He said to a man in Chicago
that there were enough weak fellows in
the league and he liked man who

Not to Eat It

Seneca, Sept 19-"Don't eat the
steak" was the warning cry which ran
through the streets of this city one
morning this week, and was undoubt-

life.
Saturday night hired man, who had
sole charge of a residence here, conclud-
ed to get rid of prowling dogs and other
marauders, which had taken victuals
from shelves on the back porch. He
bought three pounds of beefsteak and a
box of Rough on Rats, rubbed guam
tity of the poison into the steak, placed
the latter on the back porch and went
to bed.
About daybreak he awolze and saw
man carrying a basket running out of
the back yard. He found the poisoned
steak stolen With visions of men, wom-
en- and children in the throes of arsen-
ical poisoning, the hired man broke for
the fire bell and turned the ringing ap-
paratus loose. Two hundred people soon
appeared in the street and the situation
was explained. Lest the unknown thief
should not heed the alarm the church
bells were also set going, and people
rushed through the residence streets
crying: Don't eat the beefsteak!" The
$500 people of Seneca were soon all stir
ring and people from the country poured
in.
The hired mans alarm was effectua1-

FULL DINNER PAIL
The Subject of Mr.. Bryan's Ad-
dress to Kansas City Pack
ing House Men.

Kansas City, Sept. 19-Armourdale,
the center of the packing house and
stock yards interests of Kansas City,
turned out a great crowd last night to
hear William ]. Bryan who spoke in
Shawnee park. He arrived in Kansas
City at $50 and was driven across the
river to the meeting place, arriving at
6:15. The employees of the various es-
adjustments in the neighborhood had
already ceased labor and large numbers
of them had gathered in the park de-
spite the threatening sky and even a
slight fall of rain. The workingmen
gave the closest attention.
On the way from Fort Scott to Kan
sas City Mr.. Bryan made several brief
speeches from the rear platform of his
car, the most noteworthy of these being
at Pleasanton, LaCygne, Paola and
Olathe.
Mr.. Bryan's speech at Armourdale was
addressed entirely to the labor element
of which his audience was composed He
said in part

the important issues of this campaign
they meet our argument with one an

If we ask the Republicans why for three
and half years they have failed to
give to the labOring men protection
from government by injunction, the on
ly answer is that the laboring man has
a full dinner pair and he ought not to
object to government by injunction if
the dinner pail is full.

Remarkable Success of a New
Treatment for Piles.

For many years it has been supposed
that the only absolutely sure cure for
piles was by surgical operation, but the
danger to life and the pain and expense
has been so great that many thousands
suffer for years rather than submit to
this last resort; or they seek the tenn
porary relief in the many remedies
claimed to relieve piles and rectal trou-
bles, salves, ointments and similar sim
pie remedies which give only slight and
very temporary relief
A new preparation which is painless
and harmless, but which affords immed-
late relief and in many cases a COM
plete cure in a very short time, is sold
by druggists under the name of Pyramid
Pile Cure
It is in suppository form used at night
and its regular use has cured thousands
of obstinate. long standing cases. and
it seems to be equally effective in all the
various forms of piles, whether itching,
bleeding or protruding.
The Pyramid Pile Cure allays the in
f1ammation and intolerable itching, re-
duces the tumors, and its astringent
properties cause the enlarged blood yes
sells to contract to normal, healthy
condition.
A Baltimore gentleman relates his ex-
perience with the Pyramid Pile Cure in
these words:
ut AFFORDS me unusual pleasure to add
my endorsement to those of others rela-
tive to your really wonderful pile rem
edy I was a sufferer for years until
told by a fellow salesman of the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure. 1t has entirely cured me
and I cheerfully send this for publica-
ton If you wish to use it in that direc-
ton. I wish you would send me one of
your little books on cause and cure OF
piles, 1 desire to show it to some
friends"
ANY pile sufferer may use the Pyramid
with certainty that it will give instant
relief and regular use permanent cure
and the still further certainty that It
contains no cocaine, morphine or metal

CANCER

Sufferers from this horrible r1a1ady
nearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma-
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the b1ood-every vestage
of it driven out. This S. s. s. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
