them to lower their rates. And when

DIsAPPEARANCE OF KANSAS GIRL
Miss Elsie Fry of Junction City Found
After Hard Search.

Kansas City, Mo.-Miss Elsie Fry,
the young lady school teacher from
junction City, who disappeared from
the home o. her sister, Mrs. Sander
son, 1870 Liberty street, Manday of last
week, has been found at Jarbalo, a lit
tie station near LeavenwOrth. She
had become mentally unbalanced and
had wandered about aimlessly. She
has regained her balance and will re-
turn to her home. Marshal Allen and
eN-marshal Callahan of Junction City,
together with two Kansas City detect
ives worked all week on the case
which has attracted attention second
only to the case of Miss Maude Banes-
teel who dropped out of sight in Kan
sas City in 1894. The latest theory of
the police is that Miss Fry was robbed
by Il foot pad, since all her money and
Valuables are gone, and this, together
with the intense heat, unsettled her
mind.

FOR BRYAN AND FUSION.

j. Mack Love chairman of the DEM
ocratic state committee and TAYLOR
Riddle, chairman of the populist state
committee, are of one mind on the
proposition that Kansas will go for
Bryan this year and elect the entire
fusion state ticket by good sized ma
jorities. $
I'VE will carry Kansas by a major
ity anywhere from 1900 to 10000. >
said Chairman Love. IF the popu-
lists get their entire vote out. and
there is no reason why they should
not, it would not surprise me if the
majority exceeded $4,000. AS for the
democrats, we never went into any
campaign in such good form to win
What is your idea about 'oAe
roof convention at Fort Scott -
1T is the best plan that could be
devised. The democrats, think, will
be for it. A joint convention would
do more to make the harmony and
fusion complete than anything else. ,
| Chairman Riddle of the populist
state committee when seen some
hours later. said: 1--WE are headed
toward certain victory. If all of
the forces opposed to the republican
party could be united, the republicans
would be beaten by 10000. We do
not claim that we will harmonic all
of these elements. Some of them we
shall not try to pacify. But we will
have votes enough to carry Kansas by
majority anywhere between 10000
and 10000. We do not wish to claim
that IT will be walk-over The re-
Ipublicans die hard. But we have the
votes, and in this year of our Lord
we are going to get them OUT
do you favor the plan for joint
state convention of democrats and
Populists at Fort Scott?''

some of our fellows are opposing it.

CURED AFTER YEARS OF SUFFER
ING


Alta Vista, Kans., June, 10Th 1899.
Willard III. Jones, Kansas City, Mo.
Dear Sir:-It is now about two
months since 1 commenced treatment
with your Thermo-Ozone Generator
for liberation of the stomach, and
heart and liver trouble, and will say
that the excrutating pains in my
stomach have all disappeared, and my
appetite isexcellent, with no inconven-
ience as formerly. I no longer have
the severe pains in the region of the
heart, and it's pulsations are full and
strong, instead of weak and feeble as
they used to be. My liver has been
fully and 1 believe permanently arous-
ed to action, as is evidenced by clear
and regular action of the
bowels. am IS years of age and have
suffered indescribably for many years
from the ailments spoken of. have
tried manyphysicians and every patent
medicine that could hear of that
promised relief, but nothing was OF
any avail, and had settled down with
out hope, under the black flag of de-
spair, but in Gods providence this dis
covery has given me new lease of
life, for which am more than thank
full to Him and to you.
Yours very truly,
Percival Halves, Postmaster.

The men were marching along the

and as near as can be learned, had no
intention of making any trouble. Just
as they were passing the barracks a
car of the Park avenue division was
going west. A number of the men
broke from the line and rushed for
the car with the intention, it is said,

other statement was made that it was
the intention of the strikers to assault
the motorman and conductor, whose
car was without the usual police

a shot was fired by somebody not
