A TRIP ON CAMeLS.
Abilene Mems Novel Plan to Journey
Home from St. Louis.

st. Louis, Oct. 6.-Within the next
two weeks caravan of two cam 5
and a donkey will be trailing aero 5
the plains of Kansas headed for
Abilene 1t is a novel method that
has been adopted by Roy Cooper,
Virgil Davis and Fred Miles for re-
turning to their homes from the
Louisiana Purchase exposition.
Cooper, who is cashier for the Jeru-
salem Exhibit company, is given credit
for the idea. Miles and Davis Joined
in the plan and the camels and
donkey were purchased from the
Jerusalem Exhibit company yesterday.
The young men are leaving the
worlds fair to take up their college
work at the Kansas university. They
expect to remain in Abilene only a. few
days. Miles, who is superintendent of
streets in Jerusalem, astride the
donkey, in desert fashion will lead
the caravan.
The party will carry enough rations
for the journey with them, SO that
there may be no unnecessary stops or
delays. Cooper stated, however, that
it would require at least three weeks
to reach Abilene, as camels at all
times are slow moving beasts, and the
ones purchased for this particular
journey are pretty we'll worn out with
carrying for six months excursion par
ties through the streets of the New
Jerusalem at the worlds fair. Just
what will be done with the camels
after the party reaches Abilene has
not been decided. They probably will
be watered, Cooper says. and offered
for sale.

HAPPIEST MAN IN UNCLE SANS
NAVY.

81 am the happiest man in Uncle
Sans navy. 1 must have got the piles
from always sitting on the guns, for
1 have to get on them to clean them.
as 1 am first-class gunner's mate in
the after turret-
"I could not do any work when I
had the piles; my shipmates did it
for me. 1 certainly was in a bad con-
dition. Today there is no man aboard
the ship in better condition than I am,
and 1 can certainly thank Pyramid
Pile Cure for the world of good it has
done me. 1 used SO many different
medicines and spent lots of money
until l used this remedy; it is the only
one of the whole lot that did me any
good.
1.-The first box nearly cured me, and
1 don't think 1 ever felt happier in
my life, that I thought L got the real
stuff at last. To make sure of a cure
used number of boxes, also two
boxes of Pyramid Pills and one and
and / still have four boxes of Pyramid
Pile Cure left, that L keep in case I
meet anyone that is sufferer of
piles. / thank Pyramid Pile Cure a
million tines julius A. Rooster, U.
S. flagship Kearsarge.
The wonderful cures effected by this
remedy are subject for remark among
members of the medical profession
everywhere A little book describing
the causes and cure of piles is pub
lished by the Pyramid Drug Co., Mar
shall. Mich, and we advise every suf-
ferer to write for it. 1t is a singular
fact that one out of every four suf-
fers from this distressing complaint
and another peculiar feature is that it
is no respecter of persons, attacking
both those of high and of low de-
gree, the laborer and the millionaire
the scrubwoman and the lady of
fashion. We have pleasure in recon-
mending Pyramid Pile Cure to all
such, as it possesses merit; and since
it is sold by all druggists generally for
the low price of SO cents a package,
a prompt and speedy cure is easily
within the reach of everyone.

C0uncilmen Take a Surprising
Stand I'm Council.
Would Thwart the Will Of the
People.
PRESSURE QUESTION.
1t Takes a Surprising Turn in
Council.
Talk Of Voting Away a Water
Supply Franchise.
PRESSURE QUESTION.

"I will introduce at the council
meeting Monday night resolution
declaring off our deal to buy the
waterworks for $500. O00."-J. w. F.
Hughes.
1--WE ought to give the waterworks
company a new franchise at reduced
rates.. T. Howe.
"Our fire was the best thing that
aver happened to Topeka. 1t uncov-
cred a gold brick that the city was
about to buy."-W. H. Davis.
These are a few of the many in
teresting things which were said at
the meeting last night of the water
works committee of the city council
and members of the Topeka CONNER
cial club. The business of the meet
ing resolved itself into two distinct
propositions:
First, will the city ask Judge Pol
lock to direct Receiver ]. w. O'Neill
to improve the water service?
Second, will the city carry out the
deal for the purchase of the water
works for S62O.0OO2
The first question was answered in
the affirmative. The sentiment seemed
to be that the second should be an
swered in the negative.
The following gentlemen were pres
ent at the meeting: J. B. Larimer,
Geo. NJ. Noble, w. H. Davis, w. F.
Jensen. John F. Frost T. ]. Ander-
sui, W. W. Mills L. ii. CROSBY, rep
resenung The Commercial club;
Charles F. Spencer, J. w. F. Hughes,
VIM Green, S T. Howe. Jos. Griley,
and l. NJ Nellis, representing the city.
At first there was tendency to
tangle up the two propositions under
discussion, but it was finally decided
that the city could appeal to Judge
Pollock for improved water service
without involving the future negotia-
tfons for the control of the water
works City Attorney Spencer said:
The city can certainly compel the
water company to obey the terms of
the old franchise without in any way
recognizing an extension of the fran
chfse. This point has been settled in
the Des Moines waterworks case.
believe, however, that if the court
should order the receiver to make ex-
tensive improvements to the plant and
the city should eventually buy the
plant, the city would have to pay ev-
cry dollar that these improvements
cost. If the city did not buy the plant.
1t would not, of course. be obliged to
pay for the improvements. 1 think
the city should decide at once whether
1t wants to declare off the deal for the
purchase of the plant. If it allows
things to drift along the way they are
now the courts might hold that it's
failure to take any action constituted

within radius of a mile and have ar
ranged to provide carriages for those
who cannot reach the church afoot.
The services will be nonSectarian

DEPENDS ON RAILROADS.
They Will Be Deciding Factor in
Years Iron Trade.

Cleveland, o., Oct. 6.--The Iron Trade
Review in it's weekly review of the iron
market says: Gagged by pig iron alone,
the iron market improvement has made
further progress. Not marked bet
terment is discernible in finished ma
terial demand, but developments there
are encouraging, with prospects that
the larger scale of mill operations will
last well toward the end of the year.
1t need hardly be said that the railroads
will be the deciding factor in the iron
market of the next three months. The
more active market for foundry iron
that was a feature of the last ten days
of September is still noteworthy, and
reports from all sections now agree as to
this, as they did not ten days ago.
FoundrieS are finding an increasing de-
mand for their products-not a marked
increase but enough to beget conf
dence and to lead to buying. The num-
Der of inquiries. and the good aggre-
gate tonnage they represent for pig
iron to be delivered in the first quarter
of 1905 indicates a growing desire to
take advantage of present low prices;
it is an indication also that many
foundries are provided with iron for the
balance of the year.
Prices show more firmness and in the
case of northern furnaces there mas
imum of $11.50 for No. 2 foundry to
s11.75. while $11.65 and $1,000 are now
commonly held. The southern furnaces
are increasing production slightly and
somewhat, so that So. so. Birmingham
may be considered more thoroughly
established than at any time this year.
The situation apart from pig iron is
better in a, number of lines.
Indications point to a heavier ship
ment of Lake Superior this year than
has been counted on at any time by
authorities in that trade. 1t seems GER
tain that the steel corporation will con-
tinue its policy of carrying a good re-
serve on Lake Erie docks and infurnace
yards. The September movement on the
lakes exceeded that of September, 1903,
by over one million tons and if only
the October and November movement
of last year are duplicated this season
the total will be close to 49, SOC, 900 tons
as against predictions early in the year
of IA, 500,0 900 tons. In addition to the
steel corporations activity in ore ship
ments attention has been directed to it's
greatly enlarged coke production which
has suggested the possibility of a coke
accumulation such as was maintained
under the old Carnegie regime.

A New and Scientific Device

has been invented for the treatment
and cure of Consumption, Blood Dis
eases, Neurasthenia, all nervous and
mental diseases, asthma. hay fever and
all conditions where there is a break
ing down of the system from over
work or blood poison. You breathe
the germicidaI principles from this
new machine into the lungs, which
also enters the blood, making it abso-
IuteIy pure. When the blood is pure
the body cannot be otherwise, hence
1kS great value in all diseases
Topeka should feel that its doctors
are up-to-date. and hereafter there
ohould be no hesitancy in the matter
of confidence in local physicians, and
especially so with the efforts of DIR. j.
Alvin Horne in equipping himself with
facilities that will enable him to make
examinations and treat cases to much
better advantage than heretofore.
While the doctor was in Chicago re-
Gently he purchased among a number
of late appliances, the Electric-Germi-
eide machine, with all the modern ap-
planes, that will enable him to use
the machine in the treatment of many
patients In this way he is able to
treat patients for diseases where
physicians without this machine can
not even help them. One of the prin-
ciple features of this machine is its
use for the treatment of tuberculosis.
Devoid of electrolytic action, the cleo
tric-germicide treatment chiefly mani
tests itself as a regulator of functions.
1t adjusts the normal action of the
heart, respiration, pulse, temperature,
oxidation, secretion, excretion. 1t in
creases metabolism so that a person
can absorb more oxygen (the germi-
cidal principles enter the blood with
the OxygeH), and the Improvement in
nutrition is vast power for good, and
alone suffices to correct many morbid
states; as tuberculosis, asthma, ca
tarrh in all forms, impure blood, in
somnia, neurasthenia, anaemia, and
various symptomatic arrangements.
In the Electric-Germicidal treat
ment of tuberculosis the clothing of
the patient is not removed, yet the
gerInicidal principles enter and per-
meate every portion of the lungs, as
they are very penetrating and diffusive
and penetrate every portion of the
lungs and also enters the blood in the
lungs as does oxygen
This form of treatment has cured 80
per cent of incipient cases and very
materially benefited great numbers of
those in the last stages of this malady.
At the present time astounding results
are being obtained by the use of this
wonderful machine.
The machine combined with the *
Ray is used successfully for the treat
nent of CANCER, as well as many
other diseases of this nature. RHEU-
MATISM is also absolutely cured by
this means
1t is worth ones while to call at DIR.
Horne's Office, LOG West Eighth street,
and examine this machine and see
where it might be of benefit to you.
DIR. Horne should be commended for
his enterprise in adding such costly
machine to his already well equipped
