the long run, and in this respect he

At Elkton.

This is the old stage town on the
Umpqua, and has dreams Of being a
railroad point some time in the future.
1t is where a railroad would leave the
river to come over to the Southern Pa.
cifc, but until the great struggle for
conquest among Hartman and his
rivals has been settled it is doubtful
if Oregon gets any extensions. Elkton
has two fine large churches, a large
school house, but was told has only
three months school this year. A poor
rancher's wife told me this whose four
little children walked over two miles
to school, and 1 was surprised at such
a state of affairs in prosperous com
munity. / could scarcely believe it,
and as I was on the road away from
there before / got the information, was
unable to verify her statement. 1t is
almost impossible to conceive that such
an old community, so healthy, with two
a strongly moral and prohi
bition community, would have such
on public education. In three
the children would barely learn
TO read and write, and without prompt
ing at home would forget what they
learned in the other nine.

A PITHY STATEMENT
Mr.. Geo. W. Putnam Gives
an Apt Illustration
HIS VIEWS ON vINoL WORTH
LEARNING.
This Is the Preparation That Is Being
Much Talked About.

A reporter asked Mr.. Geo. w. Put
nam the same question that hundred,
have asked him in the last few days
"Just tell me precisely, please, why
Vinol is better than cod liver oil3"
Mr.. Putnam replied in his genial
way, "You have given me a rather
difficult task. can explain to you in
few minutes the advantage of Vinol
but to do in a half dozen words would
hardly be possible. Perhaps l can il
lustrate its value, however, in a brief
manner. Suppose you had never seen
hens egg. A man who knew of them
should tell you to eat three every day.
/ do not say that you would, mind you,
but | am inclined to believe at the
start you would make an heroic effort
TO get away with the whole thing, shell
and all. The meat of the egg would be
what you need, the shell rather super
fiuours. In fact, as a matter of nour
ishment not quite the thing for your
stomach.
"There you are with cod liver oil.
In it you have a medicine, or rather
in the liver of a live cod there is n
medicine known to be valuable for GER
tain forms of wasting disease, a great
reconstructor. Doctors have admins
tered it for years. They were like the
man who had never seen an egg before.
They gave it to their patients just as
they found it, shell and all. Yes, that
is exactly it. The grease was useless
and as bad for the stomach, almost, as
would have been the shell of the egg
The kernel, or the meat of the remedy,
the vital principles that they were
after, were contained in it. Science
has stepped in and done exactly what
the man with the egg might have done
found a way to separate the health
full interior from the worthless husk
"Now we have the active medical
principles of the cod IS liver. We have
thrown away the useless encumbances
that formerly encloaked it, namely,
the Objectionable fat. We have taken
this extract, placed it in a delicious
table wine, and there you are. Pa
tients who have needed cod liver oil
and could not take il, have no trouble
in taking Ninol. Why you would en-
JOY drinking it yourself, so pleasant is
it., if did not tell you it was anything
but mild table wine. If you needed
it, however, for a medicine, you would
soon find il to be something different.
The medicinal properties of the cod s
liver heal damage done by disease that
are of wasting nature, and the same
principles give strength to the weak
ened digestion and enable the poor suf-
ferer's worn out stomach to digest and
obtain nutrimept from everyday food.
These same principles are also active
disease germ annihilators.
eyes, l am glad TO have you come
amy time that you care TO learn any
thing more about viuol. II has already
proved itself to be a winner"

BLEW UP THEMSELVES,
Amateur Bandits Hurt While Trying
to Rob a Train.

Houston, Tex, July 16.-Train No.
5, on the International q Great
Northern. was held up last night at
Kechi, a small station about 80 miles
west of Palestine. There were five
bandits in the party, all young men.
and apparently amateurs. They
dynamited the express car with out
detaching it from the train and blew
in the end of the second class coach,
but without injuring any of the pas
SenSers- One of the robbers was ap-
parently badly hurt, as the explosion
appeared to be premature and he was
observed to be covered with blood.
The robbers secured nothing, not mo-
testing either the express or the mail
and getting away as fast as possible
after their comrades were hurt.
Fireman Muze jumped from the en-
gine as the train slowed down, ties
having been piled across the track,
and hurt his shoulder. but not seri-
ously. None of the passengers was
mOleSted.
The adjutant general has been noti-
ned and a special train with Sheriff
Henry Watts, his dogs and a posse
left Palestine early this morning for
the scene of the hold up. A squad of
rangers is stationed near the scene of
the hold up and it is probable they
will be put on the case at once. 1t
is anticipated that arrests will be
made shortly, as the bandits are prob
ably country lads reared in the neigh
borhood.

LOOMS BODY FOUND.
Corpse Washed Ashore Bearing Evi-
dences of Identity.

London, July ia body supposed
to be that of F. Kent Loomis was
washed ashore this morning at Big
bury bay, Devonshire.
The body was that of well dressed
man, five feet six inches in height, at
tired in a gray overcoat and dark
blue suit. In the pockets were found
a card with the name "F. Kent
Loomis.' American and English coins,
American notes, gold watch, etc.
The body which was discovered by a
laborer. was in a state of considerable
decomposition. 1t was removed to
neighboring farm building to await
the inquest.
Bigbury bay is ten miles southeast
of Plymouth, where the North Ger
man Lloyd steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II
arrived June 20 from New York,
having on board f. Kent Loomis,
Loomis. Mr.. Loomis was missed at
L O'Clock that morning and has not
been heard from since He was
charged by the authorities at Wash
ington to convey to Abyssinia the
treaty of commerce concluded be-
tween the United States and EN-
peror Menelik. Mr.. Loomis Travelled
with William H. Ellis. of New York,
who in view of the disappearance of
the former took the treaty, which was
found in Mr.. Loomis' baggage to
Ads Abea. the Abyssinian capital.
Brother Takes Up the Matter.
Washington, July 16.-It is stated
at the state department that ever
since the disappearance of F. Kent
Loomis a quiet but far-reaching in
vestigation has been energetically
conducted and is still being carried
on. A great many details have been
ascertained, but no facts tending to
indicate the exact time or manner of
the disappearance from the steamer
of Mr.. LoomiS.
AS soon as the Associated Press dis
patch from London was handed him
the assistant secretary of state, Mr..
Francis B. Loomis, cabled to the
American consul general at London,
Mr.. Evans, requesting him to have
the body carefully examined for any
marks of violence. The number of
the lost mans watch already has been
sent to the consul general, and if it
comedies with that found on the body
the identification will be considered
complete and arrangements for send
ing the body home will be made. 1t
has long been the theory of the rela-
tives of Kent Loomis that he went
upon the hurricane deck to get a
glimpse of the English shore and ac-
stepped overheard.

Japanese Lying in Wait.
Odessa, Russia, July 16.-The Rus
rived here from the Persian gulf, says
the English are persiStently spreading
rumors to the effect that six armed
japanese merchantmen are lying in
wait for Russian ships in the Red sea
and the Persian gulf.
Japanese Are Hungry.
Ia Tche Kia, July 16.-The Japanese
are suffering from hunger. Six of them
came in and surrendered to General
Mistchenko, begging for food. They
said disease and famine were rife in
the Japanese armies. According to re-
ports from the vicinity of Lao river a
disguised Japanese officer and a de-
tachment of japanese have gone toward
Hal Cheng with ten chests full of sill
yer to pay Chinese bandits.
Togo Reported Dead.
Chefoo, July 16.-The Chicago
Daily News correspondent with Kuro-
kos army, in a dispatch sent by a
Chinese junk from An Tung, says:
There is a persistent rumor here
that Admiral Togo is dead Many of
the japanese profess to believe it. A
severe outbreak of cholera is devas-
tating this section. The bodies of the
soldiers who die of the disease are
being cremated.'
Rumor About the NOvik.
st. Petersburg July 16.-7:06 p. m.
There is a persistent rumor in cir
culation to the effect that the protect
ed cruiser Novik has Joined the Vlad-
ivostok squadron. The admiralty has
no information on the subject 1t is
admitted that it is possible but i'm
of separating the Port Arthur force.
Startling if True.
ST. Petersburg, July 16.-Reliable
reports from Ia Tche Kiao this after
noon brought the startling announce
ment of the presence of Russian war
ships off Kiao Chou, which they are
said to be bombarding, and of the
arrival of Japanese transports and
torpedo boats off the port of New
The admiralty was un-
able to confirm or deny either report,
not having received any communica-
ton from Rear Admiral Withoeft. but
clined to credit it. If true it would
mean that Admiral Withoeft has got
the Japanese transports at his mercy.
In this case Admiral Togo would
hasten to their rescue and engage the
Russians. This may also explain the
absence of positive news of the Japa-
nese occupation of the port of New
Chwang and the cautious advance of
Oku's column. The foreign
the Russian consul, M. Gosse, at New
Chwang, dated July IA, but he did not
mention the approach of the Japa-
neSe.

WAS IN 80 MINUTES.
Judge Parker Took Longer Swim
Than Usual Today.

Esopus, N. Y, July ia breath
less. blistering July day dawned upon
Esopus after a night of thunder and
lightning uneQuaIIed before this sum-
mer, but neither the boisterous storm
of the night nor the sitting heat of
the morning interfered with the rOu-
tine at RosemOunt- A little after
o clock Judge Parker took one of his
long dives into the Hudson and re-
manned in the water some 80 minutes.
What the mail here will be by the
time the campaign is in full swing is
a question now causing solicftude in
the little Dostoff1ce where most of the
work is done by boy OF 16- No such
mail that which came in on the
early train was ever seen in Esopus
before and it is doubtful if any single
citizen in Ulster county ever before
received the like.
The new campaign office in the Judge
at the gate of Rosemount is now IN
use for part of the judges business,
although his large law library in the
house is still the center of distribution.
Three additional stenographers and a
private telegraph operator constitute
the working force at present, but 1t Will
be augmented as time goes on and the
bulk of the business requires it.
The expected visit here today of Jno.
A Kern who was one of the Indiana
delegates at large at st. Louis, was the
only event of political interest appar-
ent upon the programme at the outset
of the day. 1t is understood that Mr.
Kern is coming to press the claims of
his friend, National Committeeman
Taggart, for the national chairmanship.
Judge Parker on his horseback ride
was accompanied by his daughter, Mrs.
Charles Meyer Hall. and part of the
way had on his saddle in front of him,
his little grandson.
Judge Parker today received a long
congra tulatory letter from William F.
Villas, who was postmaster general in
President Cleveland's cabinet. The let
ter is dated Madison, Wis, July II.
The following telegram was received
today:
Troy, N. Y.-One thousand paraded
the streets at Cohoes last night in your
honor. Big ratification meeting, big
banner thrown to the breeze, first in
the state, great demonstration.
JOHN WALLACE.
IN. T. SMITH"
Cal, sent this telegram:
1.-THE Iroquois club of Los Angeles
congratulates yourself. the people and
the party upon your nomination.
JOHN T. JONES, Sachem."
Judge Parker has received from
Henry G. Davis, the vice presidential
nominee, dated Elkins, w. Va, his ac-
ceptance of the judges invitation to
visit MIN at Rosemont.
His coming adds impetus to the talk
of a double notification at Rosemount
of both candidates, but there is no real
of the report up to this
time.

SIX LINOTYPES
The State journal Adds Another Ma
chine to Its Battery.

During the last six weeks the Mer-
genthaler company of New York have
had under construction for the State
Journal a double magazine linotype
which it contracted to sell and con-
struct for our use. This machine will
be the finest typesetting machine that
has yet been shipped into the state;
will combine a number of new improve
ments, and will set from two to four
times as many different kinds of type
as the ordinary linotype, of which the
State Journal already has five.
This sixth machine, which costs
$3,600 besides the freight, will give this
paper a larger battery of typesettine
machines than any other paper, or
plant, in Kansas. 1t will set news mat
ter, headings and advertisements all
by one operator from one keyboard.
The State Journal is the only daily
newspaper in Topeka which owns it's
own machines, the others being used
on a rental basis.
The machine has been shipped from
the factory and will be in operation in
a few days.

SHE KILLED HERSELF.
Inquest Into Death of Mrs. Backus
Reveals Nothing.

The inquest over the exhumed body
of Mrs. Ed Backus was concluded this
morning and a verdict of suicide re-
turned. The mouth of the dead wo-
man showed carbolic acid burns, and
an analysis of the stomach also evil
denced that the deadly poison had
been used
The death of Mrs. Backus occurred
four weeks ago at her former home
near West Indianola, three miles
northwest of town. She was declared
a suicide and the interment took
place. Some of the neighbors sus-
pected foul play and the body was
exhumed and a second inquest held.
with a verdict the same as that of the
first.
Ed Backus, the husband of the
dead woman, was married to Lille
Mcmillan two weeks after the death
of his first wife.
