DeWlPs Lille EARLY RISERS
The famous little pills for constipation
sents the warrant 10 the county treas
urar and e-ats his n1nnev

sents the warrant TO the county treas
urer and gets his money.
It sometimes happens that people neg
lect tc call for their warrants. The law
prescribes that after three years the
county commissioners shall declare these
uncalled for warrant soutlawed and can
eel them. This has been neglected since
1892 and yesterday the commissioners
collected all that have accumulated since
that time VI to three years ago. The
warrants were for different amounts, the
largest was for seven dollars and half.
The majority Of men who held these
claims had been in the district court as
witnesses in some case and had claimed
their attendance but never could get their
pay. In afew cases the claims were for
some small article sold to the county
and the man who sold 1t would not take
the time to go after his warrant and
finally forgot it entirely. They are now
out the amount Of their claim and the
county IS just that much ahead.

lands in the vicinity OF Wichita and
Sedgwick county"
Deals in farm lands are being made al
most every day but the most OF the
agents won't give out any information
regarding sales or buyers names until
after everything IS closed up. Some OF
them claim that one or two deals have
been knocked by a too premature publi-
cation Of the sale.
The marAet on small properties IS still
active and there is some enquiry for this
class OF stun all the time by people
looking principally for homes and IL some
cases for Investment
The biggest advance that has been made
is IN vacant lots for building sites. De-
sirabie ones in choice locations have more
than doubled IN value IN the last six
months and deals ano turns IN this class
Of property are being made ell the time.
Just recently the first addition that has
been plated since the boom, the Brooks
Oldham addition near the packing
houses. was mapped and placed on the
market and lots offered for sale. Yester-

Tat Mccabe is looking for his widow.

Tat McCabe is looking for his widow.
Mr. McCabe is a good looking Irish Ia
boring man who has the stamp Of hon
esty. industry and intelligence in his
face. He has his share Of the troubles
Of the world. Not only that but he is
supposed 10 be dead; is reported dead
and is certified to be dead in the Mod
ern Woodmen Of America.
Some months ago, Mr.. AIcCabe, who
was a trackman on a railroad down near
Arkansas City moved to Wichita with
his wife and took UP his abode down in
the Sixth ward. He furnished his wife
with some money, gave her an order for
a railroad pay check. conhded TO her
some promisory notes and started out
west with e view TO securing work and
Changing location for the benefit Of his
health II California he became i'll Of
pneumonia fever and was at the point of
death. He had letters sent her but she
never Received them.
TO an Eagle reporter yesterday Mr..
McCabe said: DO you see that button?
I belong to the Modern Woodmen and
am reported dead by that organization
wrote several times to my wife about
my sickness. but so far as can learn
the letters we're intercepted. Somebody
and I think I know who. reported to her
that was dead and for her to collect the
insurance. I think some cheap doctor is
into it. Ny wife got sick over the news
Of my death and while in weak condi-
ton two men persuaded her that she
needed little fresh air and advised
country trip. They took her IN a wagon
as far as Hope and from there they went
somewhere else. I heard she was in Be
lott, but I telegraphed there and couldn't
find her. I have been on the train for
two weeks hunting her. but can find her
nowhere 7 think they have hypnotized
her for the purpose Of getting hold Of
that insurance money. They may also
want to raise money on the promisory
notes she holds. They got her to sell
most every article Of household goods
she could dispose of. That which she
couldn't dispose of-trlnks and things
she stored n the Burd building. I can't /
even get these without her order. The /
man says get an order from your wife 4
and I'll let you have 'em. How can 4
get an order from her when I don't know
where she Isl would FIVE hundred times /
rather have my wife than the goods in 4
storage. don't know what I'll DO. No /
body seemsto give me any help. I wanted /
TO take some steps in the law way to /
prevent the goods rom falling into the (
hands Of the men who took my wife /
away. but the lawyers say that have to /
put up indemnity bonds and can't do /
that very wei. The man who has charge .
of the goods says he win give them to
anyone who viii bring an order for them
from her and I am afraid some Of the |
men who have taken her away VIII get /
them"
Mr.. McCabe is not afraid that they win
get the insurance on his life for he has
written TO his lodge saying that he is
alive and the proper officers wiz un-
doubtedly protect him in that respect It
Is a queer case.

TEXAS PROSPECTS DARK
Wheat Crop Almost an Entire Failure
in That state.


H. c. Hodges of this city has returned
from a trip over the larger portion OF
Texas in the interest Of the Western
Grain and Storage company. and he says
Texas will have q very light crop Of
wheat this year. The crop of the state is
estimated At 5000. 900 bushels. He says the
oats crop there is a failure on account Of
the drouth. Corn up to the first OF June
looked well, but it too is now suffering
for want of rain.
Mr.. Hodges says the grain men and
the milIers Of Texas are not feeling very
kindly toward the railroads. The mill
ing in tranite rates have been taken
away and they say they cannot do any
thing without the rate this year. He
says the wheat from ElReno to Wichita
IS simply out OF sight and a better crop
he never saw.
Mr.. Hodges says one thing they have to
perfection IN I exas and that is Bermuda
grass. He says in some places the lawns
are like a brussels carpet, the grass is
so thick. he says the people OF this city
ought TO plant Bermuda grass on every
vacant lot IN the city. He has seen It
grow in gumbo, in sand and on rocks.
and he does not know where 1t win not
grow If given a chance.

MUST SAVE THE COAL
GREAT BRITAIN FEARS SHE NAY
RUN SHORT
Folks Living at the End of the Pres
ent Century Likely to Suffer
and SILVER From Cold
Blasts.

LONDON, Dec. pa royal commission
has been appointed to inquire into the
coal resources of Great Britain. The
questions to be covered by the commits
sion's investiga ton will include the pos
sible exhaustion of British coal fields; the
effect of coal export on tn home supply;
the possibility of a reduction in it's cost
by cheaper transportation, and whether
the coal mining industry of Great Brit
ain, under existing conditions, is MAIN
tanning its competitive power with for
eign fields.
The commission is composed of seven
teen members, and includes the chairmen
of railway companies, the heads of big
colliery companies and prominent en-
gineers and biologists. A similar COM
mission was appointed in 1866 and in 1871
delivered an opinion to the effect that the
supply of coal to. the depth of 1900 feet
was 90, FOG, COOS GOO tons 1t is estimated
that during the thirty years from 1871
to 1900 inclusive, the British output of
coal was 5,025, 600 tons, a rate of ex-
haustion far in excess of that assumed
by the royal commission, and due to the
enormous increase of exports. If this
rate of doubling the output in thirty
years is maintained the end of the pres
ent century will see the exhaustion Of
Great Britain's coal field.
