S1O,OO0,0O0 INDUSTRY
An Immense Cotton Mill Projected fol
Kansas

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. l8.-It is
understood that the site for a 10 mil
lion dollar cotton mill has been Sc
lected. The site includes LOO acres
near Holiday, Wyandotte county, on
the line of the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe railroad.
Not only will the mill and buildings
directly pertaining to the industry be
built upon this land, it is said, but
the project involves the construction
of village, where the 5000 employees
and their families will live. The pro-
moters of the enterprise hold an
option on this tract of land, and men
who have been in close touch with the
plans of the promoters say that tn
Holiday site is the one that has been
chosen.
1t is believed that the site includes
IA, 900 acres formerly owned by the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail
road and upon which an attempt was
made Ito build several big factories
and start village several years ago
The NOV ament failed, however, owing
to the financial depression and the
land.has fallen into the hands OF east
ern investors.

things together the cat that is in the

takably. Said cat consists of few
persons who wish to curry favor with

APPENDICITIS.
Some Facts Regarding Its Rapid In

crease,
Appendicitis among Americans is
certainly increasing and while this is
obably due to the excitement and
worry of American business life, it is
more often directly traceable to con-
stipation. Appendicitis is caused by
extraneous matter entering the vermi-
form appendix and not by the swallow
ing of seeds. If the digestive organs
are kept in perfect condition so the
food is duly assimulated and the
bowels move gently, at least once a
day, appendicitis will never develop.
Don't take chances. Regular doses
of DIR. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin before
meals will strengthen the organs of
digestion, your appetite will be good,
constipation disappears and you feel
better in every way. DR.. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin does not relax the
bowels by irritation, but by curing
indigestion, the cause of constipation.

was sent for and the body was taken
to the morgue on Silver avenue.
There it was viewed by many Argen-
tine people. All of them had known
the old doctor, and his sudden demise
shocked them.
DR.. Foote was about so years old.
He came to Argentine eleven years
ago. He was native of Ohio and
lived in that state just previous to TAX
ing up his residence in Kansas. His
wife, son and daughter accompanied
him to Argentine. The ola man was
respected by members of the medical
profession not so much for what he
knew as for what he had forgotten.
He was eccentric and had many queer
notions. Six years ago he startled
the medical profession by contribut-
ing an article to the Medical Index in
which he stated that part OF his own
physical system constituted musical
organ. He said he could hear musi-
cal sounds from within his own body
and that the strange condition was
regulated by his own mind. This ar
ticle was copied in newspapers all
over the United States and in q short
time nr. Foote was known as the
musical man." title that stuck to
him until death.
Three year ago his wife died and
year later he left Argentine and went
to Gas City, Kas. There he met a
woman whom he had loved in his
youth. The old flame was rekindled
and the aged physician and his first
love we're married. They didn't live
happily together and within few
months the wife deserted him. Dr.
Foote sued for divorce.
Last spring he returned to Argen-
tine. He had lost his wealth. He was
poor, almost poverty stricken. His
knowledge of medicine and surgery
was fast leaving him. All that re
mained were his eccentricties. He
rented the little room at No. 7 Spear
avenue, and put out single. 1t has

But few people needed the sign. No
one knew how he lived and no one,
save George w. Toothaker and few
others, seemed to care.
During the summer months DR..
Foote had slept on a rude cot in the
room that served him as an office
During the latter years Of his life, DR.
Foote was an agnostic.

Book Barred FromlDenveriLibra
Denver, Aug. 19.-Mark Twain has
written letter to local paper in
response to telegram telling him of
the agitation to exclude "Huckleberry
Finn" from the juvenile shelves of
Immortality. He says:
81 am aware that am not privi-
legged to speak freely in this matter,
funny as the occasion is and dearly
as I should like to laugh at it. When

all. You see there are two or three
pointers: First, "Huck Finn" was
turned out of New England library
seventeen years ago, ostensibly on
account Of morals, really TO curry
favor with a person. There has been
no other instance until now. Second,

FRIGHTENED TO DEATH
1t is Thought DR.. s VI. N. Foote May
Have Been

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 2l.-Was
DR.. S. l.. Foote, the eccentric physi-
sican, who was found dead in his Of
fee in Argentine, the victim of his
own Imagination? Was his death
caused by q fatal conviction that he
had taken deadly poison instead of
comparatively harmless drugs? In
other words was he scared to death?
These are the questions that have
arisen as consequence OF a hurried
post-mortem examination that was
held over the body yesterday. Drs. f.
M. Owens and ID. +. Chopper yester-
day began an autopsy lon the body,
but had not time to complete it, and
will finish the work today. From their
investig gations, however, they assert
that they found no trace OF posion in
the stomach and DR.. Owens said last
night that it was his opinion that the
doctor took no morphine. The sensa-
ton DIR. Foote described in his las
letter written just previous to his
death were not those of man dying
from the effects of morphine poison
ing, According TO DR. Owens, NOR
phine would have made him too
drowsy to hold his head up, and it
would have been impossible for him
to have written. 1.-THE man may have
been scared to death, " said DR.. Owens
'due to the weak condition of his sys-
tenn. He may have thought that he
took morphine when he took quinine
and Dover's powders and this horror
may have preyed upon his magma
tion until death came"
While all indications thus far tend
to show that DR.. Foote died from fear
and not from poison, letter
found in his office yesterday
shows that he had threatened suicide
This letter was addressed to his
daughter, Mrs. Maggie Reeves, who
lives in Willoughby, o., and was
written week ago. In it he threaten
ed to end his life.
Mrs. Reeves telegraphed the Argen
tine officials yesterday to bury the
body beside that of her mother in the
lot in the Argentine cemetery, She
gave no orders for the holding OF the
body and the undertaken concluded
that she doesn't intend to come tt
