The walking sick, what
a crowd of them there are:
Persons who are thin and
weak but not sick enough
to go to bed.
"Chronic cases" that's
what the doctors call them,
which in common English
means-long sickness.
To stop the continued
loss of flesh they need
SCOTS Emulsion. For the
feeling of weakness they
need SCOTS Emulsion.
1t makes new flesh and
gives new life to the weak
system.
SCOTS Emulsion gets
thin and weak persons out
of the rut. 1t makes new,
rich blood, strengthens the
nerves and gives appetite
for ordinary food.
SCOTS Emulsion can be
taken as long as sickness
lasts and do good all the
time.
There's new strength
and flesh in every dose.

Gold Medals Presented.

Topeka, June 6.-Citizens of Topeka
have presented gold medals to Free
man Sardou, the old farmer, and his
sons, Charles and George, who rescued
so many people in North Topeka dur
ing the Kaw river flood last year. The
three Sardous were summoned into
court. They couldn't understand what
they were wanted for, but their attor-

subpoena. When they arrived large
crowd of people gathered around them.
Gene Hagan, the well known attorney
stepped to the front, and, in brief
speech, presented the medals to the
men. The Sardous were completely
surprised and it was great effort for
the old man to keep from weeping.

,Iananese Powder.

Washington, June Reports re-
ceived here dwell at length upon the
terrific power of the japanese Shimose
powder, the nature of which is an alb
solute secret. 1t is not used to propel
the shot but for bursting charges of
the army and navy explosive shell.
The result of the explosion has as
founded the United States army OBJ
servers. The heaviest armor-piercing
shell with its small cavity is rent into
thousands of sharp fragments which
are hurled through the air with such
force that they pass through the sides
of an iron ship as would shells from a
machine gun. The Russian warships
Variag and Koriet were found to be-
riddled deck and sides by fragments Cd
the shells. 1t is not known that any
other nation possesses such terrifi':
explosive.

re Guthrie, Okla, June :. -PeopIe CONF
ing here from the Indian Territory
report that there is good deal of in
terest manifested in regard to the
Indian land owners. While there is
large party in favor of removing the
restrictions on the right of the Indians
| to sell their lands there are also many
people in favor of their retaining
| them. The latter claim that if the
Indians are allowed to sell their land
they will in a very short time become
destitute and be a charge on the terri
tory. This, of course, does not apply
to the civilized tribes.
People who want the interests of
the Indians guarded by the govern
ment claim that those who have been
| permitted to sell their lands are
| squandering the money. 1t is claimed
that the Indians are naturally clanish
and when one has money he is inclined
| to divide it among the members of the
tribe who are in need and in this way
the man who has the money soon gets
clear of it.
The government has provided strict
rules for the Cherokee, Creek, Semi
mole, Choctaw and Chickasaw tribes
when asking to have the restrictions
removed. These rules, it is claimed,
to some extent will protect the Indians
if no frauds are committed. These

he has tried to sell his land for less
than it's true value it will be taken as
evidence that he is not competent to
manage his own affairs.
While conceding that it would result
in the more rapid improvement of the
Indian country if all the Indians were
permitted to sell their allotments,
quite large number of the people are
in favor of compelling the Indians to
hold their lands until such time as
they have learned to manage their
business successfully.

a claim of 500, 900 held by the First
National bank, of st. Joseph, all the
property of the late Bank of Highland
and of its officers and directors indi-
vidually. This is the bank that was
wrecked in December by its young
cashier, j. E. MARCEL, who has just
been sent to the penitentiary on plea
of guilty on five counts of forgery. 1t
is believed that Marcell's populations
by forgery and otherwise amount to
little less than quarter of million
dollars. The Mechanics bank of St.
Louis alone holds $50, 200 of Marcell's
paper. The st. Joseph bank put up a
bond of $50, 900 and the case is filed in
the United States circuit court of
Leavenworth. The property seized
consists of GAO acres of land belonging
to G. w. Overlander, who was direc-
tor; also his late residence property in
the city of Highland and some business
property in Highland; $40 acres of
farm land and the residence in High
land of Harrison Dillon, who was
president of the bank, and Marcell's
father-in-law, together with a two
story brick building containing L.-V.

farms in the country, to hold them as
homesteads if the worst comes.
