There is hardly a day passes but
what the metropolitan papers through
out the country chronicle some mar
vellous cures performed by the emin-
ent physician, and specialist, Dr. J.
Alvin Horne, LOG West Eighth street.
So wonderful have been the stories
about the seeming miraculous manner
in which he almost magically makes
the lame walk and the deaf hear and
the invalid leap for Joy. that people
living in Topeka and vicinity make the
claim that there are no Affections, such
as male and female weakness. catarrh
and catarrhal deafness, also varicocele,
rupture, soitre. cancer, all skin dis
eases and all diseases of the rectun,
which will not succumb to the treat
ment of this eminent physician, but the
most remarkable. of all seems to be the
fact that in his treatment he has elimi-
mated all the painful and barbar-
Gus methods so long used by other
physicians. In his treatment the knife,
needle, bandage, steel forceps, are not
known, but the cures are perfected,
painlessly and permanently through
DR.. ]. Alvin Horne's new Method. His
reputation has grown so rapidly that a
representative made an investigation
of the matter to learn for the benefit
of persons interested if all that was re-
ported about this great physician was
actually based upon fact. He not only
interviewed DR.. Alvin Horne personal /
~, but also interviewed those who had
been cured by DIR. Horne.
After the representative had collect /
ed all the evidence he thought neces- |
sary, he made his way to the office
of DR.. Horne. He found him to be a I
pleasant, genial gentleman, and when I
he mentioned that he had interviewed a +
number of his patients he seemed de- /

MILLS MUST PAY.
Valuation Is Increased Over
Eighteen Thousand Dollars.
Hinted That the Board Is Not
Satisfied.
MAY RAISE 1T HIGHER.
Board of Equalization Will First
Dispose of Country.
Assessor Jew ell Tells How Con-
cIuaiOns We're Reached.

The increase in the assessed valua-
ton of the Touring mills and elevators
in Topeka this year over last amounts
to $1S,525. The total assessed valua-
ton of the mills and elevators in
1903, previous to any reduction for
damage by flood, was $145.6T5, and
this year is $164,2 200.
The increased assessment was made
by the three city assessors, H NJ.
Philips, S. T. Howe and c. E. Jewell.
The valuations as made by them will
come before the board of equalization
and the board may raise or reduce the
assessment as it sees proper. The
board of equalization, made up of the
three county commissioners, F. H.
Harrison, S. H. Haynes and w. E.
Sterne, has intimated that the board
was not satisfied with the valuations
placed on Touring mills and elevators,
as the board considered them uni
formIy too low. Whether the in
crease made by the assessors is suffi-
cient to satisfy the board or not has
not been announced as the board of
equalization has not yet passed on
city property and will not do so until
the valuations in the country have
been adjusted.
The valuations placed on the flour
ing mills and elevators last year and
for this wear are shown as follows:

PIPE LINE To WHITING.
Standard Omcials Admit That 1t Is
Probability.

Chanute. Kan, June s.-The Tribune
says:
The Standard officials who have been
visiting the Kansas and Territory oil
and gas fields this week in a special
train have not been on a pleasure trip.
but on an investigating tour of i'm
mense Importance to the oil industry
of this section. The immediate bene-
fit to result from the trip, so the Tri-
bune learns, is an order that mas been
sent in since the officials came increas-
lion barrels, so impressed have been
the visitors by the magnitude of the
field. They came expecting to find
something big but it has greatly ex-
ceeded their expectations.
The real object of their visit, how
ever, has been in reference to the ad-
visibility of laying an immense pipe
line from Kansas City to the Standard
refinery at Whiting, Ind, concerning
which they have been ruTnorS the past
six months. Alongside of such a pipe
line as this the Kansas CITY line viii
be a side issue, as the Whiting line
would cost nearly four million dollars.
The Tribune gets it on good authority
that the OfficialS--whO have been out
on this Investigating tour will recon-
mend that this line be LAID which viii
probably make it a certsinty The lay
ing of this line will probably be follow

HE'S LIKE SENATOR BURTON.
County Attorney Trinl1Ie Thought He
Had Right to Take Money.

E. c. Warfel. one of the attorneys
who is prosecuting the quo warranto
suit to GUST Henry Trinkle from the
office of county attorney of Linn cOun-
ty, on the ground that Trinkle took
money from jointists in pay for releas-
ing them from prosecution, alleges that
Trinkle himself confessed in open court
to the charge in one case, believing he
had a right to do so. Warfel has filed
the following affidavit in the case:
a. E. c. Warfel, being first duly
sworn, do on my oath say that upon
the hearing to dismiss the case of the
state of Kansas VS.. Van Birmingham,
charged with violating the prohibitory
law, Henry o. Trinkle, county attorney
of Linn county, did admit that he re-
ceived the sum of $3.50 from Van Brit
tingham, and claims that he believed
he mad a right to receive the money in
such case, and that he had the advice
of an assistant attorney general of this
state to the effect that he had such
right to said sum, all in open court and
in the presence of the presiding judge
of said court, Walter T. L. Simons. I
personally heard such admissions made
in the presence of said court.

KEPT HER DAUGHTERS DOG.
For This Mrs. e. E. Sellers Given a
Fine of So.

E. r. Simons the 'pro tenn" left by
Judge Hamilton to dispense justice in
police court during his absence, fined
Mrs. z. E. Sellers of III East Twelfth
street, IS for t'harbOring a dog" The
dog did not belong to Mrs. Sellers, but
to her daughter, Mrs. L H Halloek
of Lawton, Okla, who is visiting with
her mother. There was no evidence
to show that the dog belonged to Mrs.
Sellers, but the fine was assessed
against her just the same.
Therefore, when country friends visit
in Topeka, they should tie their dogs
at home, for although they may not
be fined for bringing the animals to
town, their host is liable to be jerked
up in police court
Almost identically the same thing
happened year ago when Mrs Hal
lock visited her mother. The dog
catcher had the mother arrested for
refusing to pay license on Mrs. Hal
locks pet, but the defendant was dis
charged.

"About five years ago I was troubled
with sore hands, so sore that when
would put them in water the pain would
very nearly set me crazy, the skin would

hand. Words could never tell the suf-
fering 1 endured for three years.
tried everything that was told to use
for fully three years, but could get no
relief. tried at least eight different
doctors, but none Of them seemed to do
me any good, as my hands were as bad
when I got through doctoring as when
I first began. also tried many rene
dies, but none of them ever did me one
cents worth of good. I was dIscour-
aged and heart-sore. / would feel so
bad mornings when I got up, to think
had 70 go to work and stand the pain
for ten hours, and often felt like Civ

wrap every finger up separately, so
as to try and keep them soft and then
wear gloves over the rags to keep

all the time, But thanks to Cutlcura,

CHASED BY A SHEIk
Three American Girl Tourists Scared
Almost Into Fits.

New York, June s-Friends of the
Misses Bondy, of New York. have re-
ceiveI from Vienna news that the
young women are in a medical institu-
ton in that city, having been taken
there for observation and treatment
while laboring under great excitement
or hysteria, says a Herald dispatch
from Paris. The story of their aff1iction
is 81 strange one.
Six months ago the three young sis
tiers, who are between the ages of 20
and 30, left New York for Europe un-
attended for a trip to the Mediter-
ranean, Egypt and the Holy Land.
They were well supplied with money
and proficient in European languages.
After visiting the Holy Land they
journeyed to Egypt, saw the pyramids
and went some distance up the Nile.
A month ago they reached CONSTANT
nOple. There they met a party of Amer
leans who obtained for the young la
dies reliable courier to escort them
to Havre where they proposed embark
ing on their return voyage. They were
evidently in a nervous condition and
told stories of an attempt made to kid
nap them near the Pyramids and of
their having been pursued across Cali
lee by a bandit cheik. They gave the
impression to all who came in contact
with them that thenr nerves had been
considerably shaken by their adven-
lures, fancied or real.
On the arrived of the sisters in Wen
ma their nervousness became more
marked They evaded the courier and
their lives were in danger. Finally they
called upon the police for protection
and were turned over to the United
States consul who is having them cared
for pending the arrival of relatives.
The real cause of the nervous break
down is unknown.
