As the story runs, Morgan gave the

&. President Roosevelt's anxiety fol
the future success of the republican
party was shown yesterday when q
conference of Maryland republicans
was held at the White House at his
request. The brethren In that state
have agreed to disagree. The NJ,
J omas and anti-McComas factions
are fighting tooth and nail. tfA:
Mr.. Roosevelt does not like this
Kilkenny row within the family and
he is doing all In his power to bring
about peace, He. has talked to Se1a-
tor McComas by the hour. and later
~ the same day had Representative
Wachter OF, Baltimore, leader Of the
ahttMcC omAs faction, and Mr.. Jack
con, another factionist, at the White
House for q long pow-wQw.e> The
president carefully explained that he
was not taking sides with either fac
tion. His concern is about republican
success In the state and he does not
want that jeopardized by q row. q
Mr.. Roosevelt believes the repub-
Mcans have an excellent chance to

SIMPLY BREATHE 1T.
+ Few Minutes Use of Hyomei Four
Times a Dsy Cures Catarrh.

The pleasantest, most convenient and
the only scientific method for the treat
ment and cure of catarrh is Hyomei. Sim
ply put twenty drops of Hyomei in the
Inhaler that comes with every package
and then breathe it for a few minutes
four times a day.
1t seems remarkable that so simple a
way for treating catarrh will effect a
cure. but the most important discoveries
of science have always been the simplest.
BY breathing Hyomei in this way every
particle of air that enters the air passages
of the throat and head and goes into the
lungs is charged with a healing balsam
that kills the germs and 5aciln of catarrh
and soothes and allays irritation.
The first days use Of Hyomei will show
a decided Improvement and in a short
time there will be no further trouble from
catarrh Its action Is rapid and lasting.
You take no risk in buying Hyomei.
\ complete outfit costs S1.c0 and If after
using YOU can say that it has not helped
you your druggist Will return your mon
ey. What other treatment for catarTh is
sold under a guarantee like this? None
other has sufficient merit.

WICHITA HAS
CONTRIBUTED
To Fill Golfers of St. Louis
SchemerS.
SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS
Of Wichita Money Lost in
Get RiCh-Q Quick" Scheme.
SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS

Even Wichita did not escape the get
rich quick schemes in st. Louis. and
upon investigation the Eagle has discov-
cred that about 5000 has gone out of this
city to contribute TO the Golfers Of the
schemers. 1t is known that large num-
Der of railroad employees, people at the
packing houses and in the North End. be-
sides clerks, business and professional
men were taken in by the idea of making
easy money. Some of those who lost
can i'll afford it, but the rich and poor
alike have nothing to say.
Since the announcement that ]. ]. Ryan
& Co. and Z. J. Arnold * Co. are wholly
insolvent, the duped have kept very quiet
about their financial affairs, but while
they were receiving regular dividends
they were very laxative regarding their
investments and many induced friends 10
go into the deal. When it was known
the company were insolvent there was a
wailng and crashing of teeth, but each
man kept his troubles TO himself. 1t
is a hard matter to find man in the
city who will admit he ever invested a
cent with the companies.
Many people cannot understand how
these fake concerns were able TO build
up such an immense business in such a
short time, but when their mode of oper-
alton is thoroughly understood it is easy
to see how such vast sums of money
were secured from credulous investors.
Almost every person who reads. saw
the glowing advertisements inserted in
nv nj 6a or fey
months. guaranteeing per cent per week
on all investments made with them. They
claimed that by pooling the money and
being on the inside of the racing world
they were able to play a winning horse
each time.
A professional man, for instance, reads
the advertisement and finally writes to
one of the concerns and in answer re-
ceives a glowing letter, referring him to
several parties who are receiving regular
dividends. He studies over the letter and
finally sends so as a feeler. and at the
end of the week or month he receives an
envelope containing 6 per cent of his in
vestment, for the use of his so This
seems like a good investment, and he let's
several of his friends in. They receive
their dividends all right, but the profess
slonal man concludes that it may be I'M
safe and pulls out his $50 while he is
ahead. He writes to the company and at
the proper time receives his check for
$50. That looks square and he now has
complete confidence in the company and
sends them a draft for a larger amount.
The company becomes insolvent and all
the investor receives in return for his in
vestments is the dividends.
This scheme was worked all over the
country, and the loss in Wichita is very
light compared with that of many towns.
With such a graft there is little wonder
that the companies realized the alleged
amount of Sl0Oo0,0o0 before the swindle
was unearthed.

MEASURED BY HEAD.
Baby Whose Inquisitiveness Got
II Into Trouble.


The latest story going the rounds in
Wichita this week is that of the baby
who got its head in a gallon jar. The
baby lives on the north side. according
to the tale. 1t Is of an inquisitive nature
and when it found a gallon jar on the
pantry floor il made up its mind that
the best way to determine the size of the
opening in the jar was to stick its head
in. So, acting on impulse. as SO many
people do. the baby poked its curly lit
tie head into the jar. Then there was
trouble brewing in the jar. for the baby
couldn't pull its head out. The mother
heard the piteous cries of her darling.
but the tones were so muffled that il
deceived her and she went racing off up
stairs to rescue the boy. No where could
she find him and then up through the
open chimney place came the pitiful walls
of the poor little fellow. The mother
became frantic for she was sure that her
little one had gotten between the parti-
tons in some way.
In the meantime the man of the house
had arrived. He heard the crying of the
brat" but paid no attention. thinking
that it was just one of his mean
streaks" He called his wife. She nearly
fell down stairs and told him Of the
boy having gotten between the partitions
He started for the Ratchet in the pantry
and ran across the kid as the latter had
arranged himself. He was lying on the
floor with a jar for his head. His feet

dies.
1t took the Ratchet after all, for the
Jar had to be broken before the young
ster could be set free. You can't get him
to look into a quart can now.
