falling specific in all cases of dyspepsia
and disordered digestion.
Almost evel9body's digestion is disord-
FRED more or less. and the commonest
thing they do for it is to take some one Of
the many so-called blood purifiers. which
ln many cases are merely strong cathar-
tics. such things are not needed. If the
organs are in a clogged condition. they
need only a little help and they viii rieht
themselves. Cathartics irritate the SEN
sitive Innings OF the stomach and bowels
and often do more harm than good.
Purging is not what is needed. The
thing TO 60 is 10 put the food in condition
s. be readily digested and assimilated.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets do this per-
1ectly- They partly digest what is eaten
and give the stomach Just the help il
needs. They stimulate the secretion and
eNcredon of the digestive fluids and re-
iieve the congcsied condition of the
glands and membranes. They put The
whole digestive system in condition to do

TWO MINUTE CLIP
Former Wichita Eiiiy Makes :RecOrd
at Medicine Lodge.

A letter to the Eagle last night from
Otis Lorton Of Medicine Lodge gives a
good account of another Wichita horse.
He says:
Mary Betting. a FLY formerly owned
by Dr.. Shuts of Wichita, In a trial for
speed against time on the new half-mile
track in this city Tuesday afternoon
showed remarkable speed. She paced an
eight Of a mile in fifteen seconds, a two
minute clip. The mare is now owned
by Fred r. Ellis of this city. Under
favorable conditions old horsemen who
saw her move predict that she made Il
better record. The track has just been
completed and was not in condition for
making a record. She had only been
worked about two weeks. and taking this
and the track into consideration, the
speed shown was phenomenal.
Medicine Lodge is preparing a track
for big race meeting neSt fall. Already
a number of horsemen are arranging
to bring their horses here to train for
they say this is going to be the fastest
speed ring in southwest Kansas, and our
climate will enable them to work their
horses nearly all winter"

Barber County Land.

cessful farmers of Sedgwick county. Yes
terday he bought 22oo acres of land in

IS liable to prove q profitable invest
ment for Mr.. Oldfather.
The land was sold TO Mr.. Oldfather by
J. T. Conklln. of this city. Mr.. Conklin
told a reporter for the Eagle yesterday
that the Maize man went out to Barber
county and viewed the land and when
he named his price at $500 he said Mr..
Oldfather took his check book and wrote
q check for the amount with as little
ceremony as the average man pays his
grocery bill at the end of the week.
Mr. COnklin said that after he had sold
tho land it occurred to him that he had
sold it very cheap He said there was
about 500 acres Of bottom land and when
Mr. Oldfather spoke Of breaking out the
land and sowing il to alfalfa it occurred
to him that ono crop ike the farmers got

AS chairman of the delegation my

guilty" At 1910 Sunday morning the
jury in the West murder trial returned
the above verdict
West, who had been brought into the

A SHIP BURNS At SEA
Hull of An Unknown Schooner
Sighted Off Cost Of
Cape May.
Lie Saving Crews Make an I'm.
successful Battle Against
the Elements.
Believed That the Crew Was
Picked Up by a Passing
Vessel.

Cape May, N. j.. Feb. 1.-THE hull of
an unknown schooner. which burned at
sea last night, is floating about in the
ice this morning, far off shore. Tugs
and the crew of the life saving stations
returned, after an exhaustive
search for the schooner's crew. 1t is
believed the latter was picked up by
some passing vessel.
The life savers who returned to their
homes today tell graphic stories of their
long and unavailing struggle against
the elements in their efforts to lend as
sistance to the crew of the burning
ship. The night was about the coldest
of the winter and the darkness almost
impenetrable. In addition there was
wind enough to make the sea choppy,
and therefore dangerous for small craft.
For several days past great quantities
of ice have been floating out of Della
ware bay, and this is packed along the
shore, extending several miles out to
sea. The burned schooner was first OBJ
served on fire about 8 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. AT that time she appeared
to be imbedded in drifting ice. Three
life saving crews from this vicinity
were joined by crews from two stations
north of here and these men battled for
hours in a fruitless endeavor to pene-
trate the ice and get to the assistance of
the imperiled crew of the blazing ship.
Their efforts were in vain, however, as
they We're unable to force their frail
boats thru the packed ice. Long after
midnight the brave men gave up their
battle against the elements and re-
turned to shore. Their suffering was
intense. One surfman from this city
was found to be badly frozen and he
was carried In an almost unconscious
condition from the beach to the station.
where medical assistance was rendered.
All during the night residents of this
place lined the beach and watched the
burning ship thru marine glasses. When
the fire was at its height the flames
leaped high into the air. Today smoke
is issuing from the hulk. which appears
to be drifting in ice. The schooner was
first seen about six miles off Cape May
Saturday night 1t is believed she was
then caught in the ice. which finally
started leak and led the captain to
set fire to the ship and abandon her.

His Accession to the Throne Today
Was a Brilliant Function.

London Feb. liking Edwards first
levee since his accession to the throne
was held In st. James palace at noon
today, and was an exceptionally bril-
liant function. The gathering of men,
bers of the royal family, diplomatic

large.
The levee began with reception of
the ambassadors, who passed before
his majesty in the order of precedence,
followed by their secretaries and naval
attaches. cabinet ministers and others
entitled to the privilege of being pres
ent, including several Americans. All
of those who were known to his majesty
kissed his hand, tho they did not kneel.
as was customary when kissing the late
Queen Victoria's hand. The king Sc
lected those who We're to kiss his hand
by extending the palm downwards.
whereupon the presentee placed his
own hand beneath his majesty's and
kissed the kings hand on the back. The
majority of the presentees had to be
content with a simple bow.

MUST AWAIT THE PRINCE.
New Workers Getting Mixed on German
Rules of Etiquette.

New York, Feb. 1.-THE subcommit-
tee of the mayors reception committee
appointed to arrange for the reception
and entertainment of the officers and
crew of the emperor's yacht Hohen-
Zollern, in connection with Prince Hen
ry's visit, have had their plans disar-
ranged by question of etiquette which
has arisen. and which has been settled
authoritatively from some official
source.
Captain Mahan. naval expert, chair
man of the committee. and his COLI
leagues, some of whom are Germans by
birth. had gone ahead and arranged for
reception to the yacht. which is due
here on Saturday or Sunday. and din
ners of an elaborate character, all to be
given before the arrival of Prince Hen
ry. who will not get here until Feb. %.
That is where the trouble lies.
The committee found out yesterday
just when 1t was ready to announce the
program for the reception of the yacht.
It appears that the rules of etiquette,
vigorously observed in countries pos
sessing a royal family and court,
would forbid any official reception of
the officers composing a princes suite
or their entertainment in advance of
the honors to be accorded to a prince
