ter.

Yesterday afternoon the Wichita Inter
urban Railway company met in the CITY

some plan of action for the new electric
road.
Only members were admitted, and only
very meager details of the meeting were
given out, but ii was announced by
member of the company last night that
the road will surely be built. The line
running south from Wichita will be built
first and will cover the following terri

south to Belle PLANE, thence TO Oxford
and Geuda Springs and to Arkansas City,
A meeting has been called for next
Thursday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, in Sec
rotary Smiths office in the City building,
where the company will fully organize
and send for a charter.
At the meeting yesterday, Expert q. W.
Baumhoff' report was read and accepted
as a feasible proposition, with certain IN
vestigation required in the report. Ii
was moved and carried that W. W.
Spencer make required investigations
with an experienced surveyor.
People living along the line of the pro-
posed road will be glad to know that the
project has not been dropped, but has
been taken up by a company composed of
Wichita's best business men, who are
able and anxious to carry out the pro-
iect Over half of the members were
present at the meeting yesterday and 1t

AN ADDITION VACATED.
John Bright University Addition Farm
Instead of City Lots.

Yesterday a copy of the bill passed by
the last legislature was filed in the reg
lister of deeds office vacating John Bright
University addition to the city of Wich-
ita. This addition was plated many years
ago during the boom. 1t is located in
the southwest quarter of section ), town
snip IS, range ! east of the sixth princi-
pal meridian. This addition is four miles
south of Maple avenue and faces on Sen
eca street. The streets and alleys have
long since disappeared and for years the
property has been used as farm with
no regard for street lines. Yesterday a
number of persons who were in Wichita
during the boom days did not have tho
least idea where John Bright University
addition was, and some said they had
never heard of it before. The addition
is shown on the old maps of the city. but
not on any of the later ones. Most Of
the people of Wichita supposed that this
addition had long ago been vacated. Very
few. if any. of the lots in this addition
were ever sold. The streets. alleys and
lots were plated with large reserve in
the center

CURES CHRONIC cATARRH.
Hyomei Cures Worst Form of This
Disease in Any Part of the System.

1t is the height of folly to continue doc
toring a catarrhal disease by stomach
dragging when the whole trouble lies in
the respiratory organs, where nothing can
reach the germs but local direct treat
ment by inhalation. Hyomei is Natures
remedy for the cure of catarrh. Just
breathe it a few times daily and it viii!
effect a cure.
You may have catarrh OF the stomach,
liver or kidneys and Hyomei will as sure
ly cure 1t as it will catarrh of the head
and throat. The catarrhal germs are in
the mucous membrane or tissues and
Hyomei not only kills the germs along
the air passages. but enters the blood
with the oxygen, killing the germs in the
blood.
The indicated dry air that goes
through the air passages and into the
lungs when Hyomei is breathed through
the inhaler that accompanies every outfit,
is rich in ozone, purely vegetable and
filled with marvellous healing and
strength giving qualities.
If you are tired of stomach drugging
and seem to grow weaker all the time,
throw physic to the dogs" and get well
with the health giving Hyomei treatment
that is Natures own method.
Rev. J. B. Cook, of Holliston, Mass,
says: My wife has suffered greatly
from catarrh for fifteen years. Nearly
four weeks ago she commenced to use
Hyomei and the beneficial effect was i'm
mediate. 1t is very seldom that she needs
to clear her head and throat and she is
able to rest quietly at night For years
PAST she had been troubled with pain in
her limbs which we supposed was rheu-
matism. but since she has used Hyomei
that affiiction has disappeared
Your druggist will return your money
if Hyomei does not cure you of catarrh
This shows their faith in the remedy.

investigation ordered by the Presi-
dent Heartily Commended.

Indianapolis News.
1t has been a great many years since
scandal has attached to the national ad-
ministration Of public business, barring
the Cuban postoflce frauds Of recent and
malodorous memory. Singularly enough,
the present scandal is in the postofice also;
and there have been scandals in the past
ia the same department. The inference
ought to be plain. But FIRST the point to
be emphasized is that there should be an
investigation that will convince the peo-
pie that nothing Is being kept back. Pop
ular indignation does not reach white heat
on the discovery of wrong doing. We are
a practical people. We discount the fact
that 1t is at any time liable to be the ILL
fortune Of any administration to suffer the
legacy Of Improbable servants and to bear
the burden Of their discovery. But when
there is an appearance of protection or
suggestion of "whitewash" popular indig-
nation flames up and demands a fitting
penalty. On the avowed determination at
Washington to probe this postofice scan
dial to the bottom the people are to be
congratulated. No one for q moment Ques-
lions President Roosevelt's instructive
honesty and his utter fearlessness in fol-
owing a conclusion to the bitter end. The
pbDpltt Iutl blbANs AAO NheN NHN
rascality will be wholly uncovered.
Not only should the scandal be probed
and the guilty men punished, but the
faulty business methods Of the department.
as pointed out by our Washington corre-
~spondent, should be, corrected. 1t is allowed
to receive and disburse It's own funds, ap-
plying to the treasury only to cover
deficits. OF course, such an arrangement
gives great facility to a dishonest ring
such as appears to have been operating
for many years, to catch things coming
and going. Manifestly the Postofhce de-
partment needs to be reformed In iH man
ner Of doing business. 1t needs also to be
reformed as the snug harbor and safe
refuge Of politicians by which II Is nleo
with henchmen and heeiers, In payment Of
party or personal debts. The Postofice de-
partment. in short, needs to be run In thC
interests Of the people and their posts
business and on business principles.
