LOST ALL THE TICKETS.
Trainload of People Left Without
Transportation.

A satchel containing tickets to various
points in the west disappeared myster-
iously one day last week on the through
train over the. Atchison, Topeka & San
ia Fe railway, says the Kansas City
Star. The conductor on the Pullman
sleeping cars is required to collect all
the through tickets from the passengers
on these coaches. The tickets are
placed in small satchel, which is locked
up in one of the cars. After he checks
the tickets the conductor returns them
to the owners.
Several Of the tickets on this trip
would have carried the owners to Alas
ka, and among them were two through
tickets, including steamer passage. to
Hong Kong. China When the conductor
went to the usual place to get the satchel
it was not to be found. It is not made
clear in the reports to the officers here
whether the satchel was under lock and
key or had been left on a seat. There is
a probability that someone leaving the
train at an intermediate point picked up
the satche1 by mistake. In the meantime
the passengers to Alaska and China
were without transportation.

pesrance that Mr.. Ross. is nearly n
years Of age. He is wonderfully active
and rarely misses a day from his Office.
Mr.. Ross is a Mason and a member Of
the First Presbyterian church. He was
a sufferer from dyspepsia until he heard
of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. The follow
ing is his opinion of the remedy which
has done SO much for him:
For several years, I, Thomas L.
Ross. also my wife. Lydia L. Ross. both
of Topeka, Kan, suffered with that ter
rible nalady known as dyspepsia or
indigestion.
we commenced to use Kodol Dys-
pepsia Cure on the recommendation Of
our druggist After taking one dose,
and inside of a short time. all of those
terrible pains and dyspepsia torments
had passed away. My appetite, also my
wife's, came back and our food could
be enjoyed as when we were q. am
now turning n years of age
Il have not suffered one day with my
stomach since I commenced to use Ko-
dol Dyspepsia Cure, and recommend
it to all of my fellow citizens to do you
good, and endorse Kodol Dyspepsia
