This Is Miraculous.

Manhattan, Kans., March 14.-One
Of the strangest cases that has ever
been heard of in Riley Co. is that OF
the three-year-old daughter Of Mr..
Jonas Brubaker of this place.
Some time ago the little girl took
whooping cough, which was followed
by pneumonia. When the pneumonia
left her, she was taken down with
malaria fever with at times symptoms
of Spinal Meningitis.
The family doctor brought her safe
ly through these troubles, but after
the fever Bright's Disease set in and
the doctors gave her up. Her father
tells the rest of the story:
I'VE began to give her Dodd's Kid.
ney Pills and after she had taken
about three and half boxes, she was
entirely cured. Now she is well as
any child, running and playing as If
nothing had ever been the matter
with her. The doctors said she was
beyond the reach of medicine. Dodd's
Kidney Pills certainly saved our lit
tie girls life, when she was so far
into the chronic stage of Bright's
Disease that we thought nothing could
scye her"

the Tom Pollock land case, lately
decided in the Boise land office in
favor of Pollock's heirs, and notice
ing several mistakes in said article,
l propose, with your permission, to
correct = few of them. In the FIRST
place there was never but five law
yers engaged in the case, namely:
Pritchet, Quarles, and w. d.
Cassidy, on the part Of Perkins;
and Moody and Ruick on the part
Of Bridge. And for Judge DELAY
en- to triumph over nine lawyers
when there was only five in the
fight, would be equivalents to q
mordern miracle. There is plenty
Of evidence to prove that Tom
Pollock never served in the U. 8.
army, neither in the civil war or
anywhere else. He worked in the
U. 8. Navy yard for the govern
ment and was injured while at
work and received a pension by a
special act of Congress. Pollock
was not q citizen OF the United
States, he was q foreigner, and il
he was ever naturalized no record
Of the fact has ever been discovered
and how he could locate and hold
government land as q homestead,
without becoming q citizen, re-
mains for Judge DeHaven to show.
But we are glad to know that the
decision at Boise ia not the last
resort. There is another q n d
higher tribunal where the case will
be decided.

When "Scalping" is Stopped.
All the railroads in the territory
from Buffalo and Pittsburg west
ward to the Rocky Mountains and
southwest as far as Texas have
just agreed to run coach excursions
at very low rates to Saint Louis
during the remainder of the fair.
From all points within 200 miles
OF st. Louis excursions will run
daily at half rates. From places
between 200 or 500 miles from st.
Louis excursions will be run five
days each week at the rate OF a
cent q mile, This rate will also
be made twice a week from Col
orado, Wyoming and the Dakotas.
For no previous Fair were such
favorable rates aud arrangements
made by voluntary agreements of
the railroads. The Columbia Ex-
position taught the railroads two
lessons at once y that very low
rates caused big increase in the
number Of visitors to the Fair but
a big decrease in the revenue from
the regular passenger traffic. In
considering rates for h Saint
Louis Fair the first question of
the railroads was how to make
rates low enough to attract people
to the exposition without permit
ting others to take advantage of
those rates.
All other efforts in the past have
failed to prevent persons intending
to travel one way, from buying
round trip excursion tickets and
selling + h return coupons to
'sscalpers'' the railroads evolved
the idea of having all brokers en-
Joined by the courts from buying
or selling any tickets issued at
reduced rates on account of the
Fair. The railroads promised the
business men of st. Louis thew
would make satisfactory rates to
the Fair ii the injunctions against
the brokers were secured. The
injunctions were issued and salts.
factory rates were adopted by the
railroads.
Facing q fin ancial failure of the
Fair because Of the small attend
ance, it's managers appealed to the
railroads for further concessions in
rates and more favorable arrange.
ments. By promptly granting the
request the railroads have shown
that cheaper rates for fairs, con-
ventions and other big events will
be made when ticket ''scalping" lie
impossible when the railroads are
forced to guard against the demon.
