There are plenty of people who have
become depressed and discouraged,
because that dry, hacking cough
hangs to them continually. They
have taken much medicine, mostly OF
the advertised quack sort, nothing
like DR.. August Koenig's Hamburg
Breast Tea, the discovery Of then
noted German physician GO years ago
We do not say that this will cure a
case where the lungs are badly dis
eased, for it will not, and up to this
date there Is nothing that will cure
under these conditions; but on the
other hand, il the lungs are not hard
hit, the patient should take DR.. August
Koenigs Hamburg Breast Tea, a cup
full every night on going to bed, have
it hot, drink slowly, then every other
night rub the throat and top portion
Of the lungs with st Jacobs Oil, cover
with oil silk, let it remain an hour,
then remove. Eat good, plain, nour-
ishing food, live in the open air as
much as possible. BY all means sleep
as near out of doors as possible, that
is, windows wide open, except in the
very severe weather. Take a cold
sponge bath every morning; then i'm
mediately rub the body vigorously
with coarse towel. Take DR.. August
Koenigs Hamburg Drops every other
day according to directions. One
can buy the three remedies for $1.25
of any reliable druggist. Begin the
treatment at once and see how much
better you will be almost within a
weeks time.

bles between the miners and the
opcrators?"
''Principally the sincerity of some of

believe that Mr.. Baer and some of the
coal barons are sincere and mean
everything they say, but they have the
wrong ideas and principles and it is
next to impossible to get them to
acknowledge facts. Baer, in my opin-
ion, is an honest man and lives ac-
cording to his principles. The strike,

GIFT TO employees.
Four Thousand Men Get s135.ooo' or
Five Per Cent of Wages.

Chicago, Dec. 22.-Four thousand
employees of the Crane company at the
main factory and five branches ON the
West side were made happy by the
announcement that the company would
make them a Christmas present OF
$4,000.
This sum is an outright gift and VIII
be divided pro rata among the en-
ployes of the Crane company, SO that
each man will receive share OF 1t
equal to 5 per cent OF his annual
wages Thus an employe earning
81, 500 year, as great many of them
do, will receive $75, while the employc
whose wages are $1,000 year will
receive $50.
Every permanent employe OF the
Crane company will receive his or her
proper share of this munificent gift OF
money. If person is regularly EN-
ployed, but has only worked month
or six months, the amount given 10
such person will be per cent OF the
months or six months wages, but as
nearly all of the employees have been
with the company for years, the great
majority of them will receive per
cent of the annual wages.

Washington, Dec. 1s.-The principal
development of the day is the promi-

ultimatum stronger than that oil either
England or Germany. The large ex-
tent of her claims is exploited. In the
tripartite action Italy has the appear
ance of catspaw.
England and Germany are OF one
mind in proving Indifferent to the
proposition to arbitrate. Both assert
that the day of arbitration has passed;
that arbitration with Castro would
mean nothing. England inquired OF
the United States if she would guar

event of arbitration. The United
States answered mo"

A New Law Point.

Winfield, KS, Dec. 17--Ed Putnam,
of the city council, sued Mayor Cation,
CITY ATTORNEY johnson and six coun-
cilmen, for the return of $500, claimed
to have been illegally appropriated by
the council to the city attorney for
services rendered in prosecuting the
iointists last summer. The case was
dismissed as to the mayor and council
men, but held against the city attor-
ney. A jury found judgment against
johnson. Johnson was granted new
trial and will take the case to the SUI
preme court. The district court held
that the council had no right to pay
out any money except by ordinance
but that the recovery of the money
rested against johnson.

Some Comforting Features.

Washington, Dec 1S.-The Italian
ambassador gave Secretary Hay every
assurance that his government wished
to act strictly in accordance with
President Roosevelt's Interpretation OF
the Monroe doctrine. Ono of the COM
forting features of the Developments, to
the official mind, was the reception OF
an intimation that so far as Great
Britain was concerned, she was dis
posed to accept the views OF the state
department here as the limitations of .
peaceful blockade" That is to say,
the disposition is to avoid interference
with the neutral merchant shipping,
where it's movements do not give
actual aid to the Venezuelan govern
ment.
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1902-12-26
German Position pImcult.

Washington, Dec. 22.-The German
position presents the greatest difficult
ties by demand for apologies, which
are repugnant to Venezuela, but also
presents so many points requiring
adjustment that it is evident that
many days or perhaps weeks must
elapse before the adjustment can be
effected, and the danger of delay in
the face OF blockade which seriously
cripples neutral commerce and invites
hostile collisions with the Venezuelans,
cannot be over-estimated.

transportation facilities, military con-

To Prevent a Vote.

Washington, Dec. 1s.-Statehood for
Oklahoma, as included in the omnibus
bill, is now passing the critical mo-
ment. The bill needs only As votes
for majority of the senate. 1t has
over so. Its opponents understand
this, and having been unable to gain
any considerable adherents away from
from the bill, are resolving on tactics
to keep the bill from ever coming to a
Fote. If the opponents of the omnibus
pill have their way, there will be no
uatehood whatever.
