INTERESTING FACTS.
ZOE Nearly Every Man, woman on child.

short time ago we published an
article recommending to our readers
the new discovery for the cure of Dys-
pepsia, called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
let's, and the claims they made regard
ing the wonderful curative properties
of the remedy have been abundantly
sustained by the facts. People who
were cautious about trying new reme-
dies advertised in the newspapers and
were finally induced to give Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets a trial were surpTiS-
ed and delighted at the results. In
many cases a single package costing
but 80 cents at any drug store made a
complete cure and in every instance
the most beneficial results were report

we have space to publish only few
of the latest, but assure our readers we
receive SO many cOmmendatory letters
that we shall publish each week "a fresh
list of genuine, unsolicited testimonials
and never publish the same one twice

From Mrs. Agnes K. Ralston Cad1-

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a Ger
tain cure for all forms of Indigestion.
They are not claimed to be a cure-aII
but are prepared for stomach troubles
only, and physicians and druggists ev-
erywhere recommend them to all per-
sons suffering from Nervous Dyspepsia,
sour or acid stomach, heartburn, bloat-

disorders.

ED LITTLE IN TOPEKA.
His Return to Republicans Has a
Pang for Those in Power.


Colonel E. c. Little was down from
Abilene Tuesday on legal business. In
cidentally he is receiving congratula-
lions on his letter in which he de-
clares for Roosevelt.
The friends of Governor Bailey are
fully as well pleased over Colonel Lit
ties letter as are those of Mr.. Hoch.
In fact it is doubtful if some of the
Republican managers altogether APP
proved certain parts of the letter.
Colonel Little placed Governor Bailey
among the men in the Republican
party whom he greatly admires and
believes in, and this does not set we'll
with the boss busters who turned
down Bailey because they could not
run him.
Again Colonel Little does not lend
any support in his letter to some of
the Republican nominees-in fact his
letter, standing as it does for integ-
rity in public officials, is rather a re-
Election on such men as Treasurer KEEL
ly, Secretary Burrow, Superintendent
Dayhoff and others.
In discussing political matters to-
day Colonel Little said:
Governor Stanley would hardly ex-
pect an Endorsement from me, consid-
ering all circumstances, but want to
say that I think his comment about
legislative candidates in his speech at
Emporia is the most sensible political
utterance I have heard this year"

ARCHBISHOP HOOTED.
Members of Church of England Con-
Sress Jeered in Streets.

London, Oct. 5.-Extraordinary
scenes were witnessed at Liverpool in
connection with the annual church of
England congress now proceeding
there. The lord mayor held a recep
ton at the town hall, which was at
tended by all the leading bishops and
clergy of the United Kingdom. Then
the procession formed and marched
to the cathedral. Large crowds gath
cred in the streets to whom several
leading churchmen, including follow
ers of the late John Kensit's son and the
Wycliffe preachers, an organization
founded by the late Mr.. Kensit, had
previously distributed anti-ritual
pamphlets. AS the procession, headed
by the civic regalia and the corpora
ton followed by the bishops and the
clergy in their robes, on foot neared
the cathedral, the demonstrators
commenced to shout: Down with
popery," "Oh, for another Luther"
When the venerable archbishop of
York appeared, his silver cross of Of
flee held UP before him, the crowd
booed and shrieked "TraitorsI" Its
popery in the Streets" ''Send them all
to Rome" Amidst a storm of kissing
and shouting the archbishop passed
into the cathedral unmoved by the
uproar.
A strong force of police was sta
toned about the building, the authori-
ties fearing more serious trouble.

to be trying to do was to enable the city
to try one kind. of coal and then shift to
some other kind If the first proved unsat-
isfactory. 1t is generally supposed, how
ever, that when coal man submits a blS
for supplying an institution with coal he
makes his prices with reference to sup
plying all the coal needed, and not with
the expectation that the other party to
the contract will go off and buy coal
some place else. 1t looks like an unbusi-
neSS-like way of handling the situation
for the city to try to split its contract.
H. K. Goodrich manager of the electric
light plant. which uses a great deal Of
slack, said today:
II don't care whether they give me
slack or mill coal Mill coal is nothing
but slack with little more coarse coal in
it But good slack burns all right. We
can burn either. The dealers who have
been supplying us frequently substitute
one for the other at the same price,
Under this years contract, however,
the mill coal would cost the city Is cents
more a ton than the slack
Last year the city had to pay $2.65 for
slack instead of $230 In 1902 however, the
price for slack was only $175.

MONEY IS PAID OVER.
City Has Received $137,625 on Ac-
count of Taxes.

The county treasurer has made his
final settlement on the 1904 taxes
with the treasurer. and the books
show that since the last annual settle
ment the city has received $137, $3.50
for its general revenue and general
improvement funds. out of which the
running expenses of the city govern
ment are paid.
The final wind UP for the year took
place this morning, when County
Treasurer Bowen turned over to City
Treasurer Hale the sum of $44,515.66.
OF this amount 17,95S.49 goes into
the school fund and is turned over
to the credit of the Topeka board of
education. The other $26,557.17 is
divided among all the funds provided
for in the city tax levy, and the city
general revenue and general improve
ment funds will get about $500
apiece.
The various amounts paid over to
the general improvement and general
revenue funds raised from the mill
tax levy for each fund are as follows
for the year 1904:

10000, 900 ACRES WATERED.
Government Has Spent S2O, ZOO, 900 on
Irrigation Work.

st. Louis, Oct. 5.-At the internal
tional congress of engineering a paper
by Elwood Mead, chief of irrigation
and drainage Investigations, United
States department of agriculture, on
Irrigation in the United States,
stated that, according to the report of
the United States census made in 1902,
about 100000 acres of land in the
United States is now being irrigated.
On this 100000 acres are in the rice
fields along the Atlantic and gulf
coasts, 100000 acres in the semi-arid
region and 5000 acres in the humid
states. The remainder in the arid re-
gion of the west and southwest.
To water this area 59.243 miles of
main canals and bitches have been
constructed, while the laterals leading
from these canals to the fields repre-
sent an aggregate length many times
this distance. Mr.. Mead stated that it
is a conservative estimate to say that
$2OO,0O0,000 has been expended in ir
rigation development in the United
States.

The Wyandotte county bribery cases
will not be argued during this session

cases in which Attorney General Cole

Judge Moore in the district court of
Wyandotte county. Judge Moore dis
missed the cases against the alleged
boodlers because Mr.. Coleman. had not
properly signed the indictments and
for other minor reasons.
1t was expected that the cases would
be argued at this term of court and
submitted in time for decision early
in November, but today the state
wanted to amend the assignment of
error in one case and to amend the
record in another case, and so they

There will be no more money COM
ing into the city from taxes until the
new taxes begin to be paid in De-
cember. From now to December the
city will have to hold it's breath and
get along as best 1t can with the
money it has. At the end of Septem-
Der the city had about $15,5O0 in it's
general revenue and general improve
ment funds. 1t transferred $4,000
from the paving fund. and today re-
ceived s15, 1000 more from the county.
This brings the total cash on hand
up to $35, 700. Out of this the Sep
TENDER, October and November bills
will have to be paid. The bills aver
age about $4,000 a month. making
total of $4,000 in the three
months. This would leave the city
about $1,000 shy before it gets any
money from the 1904 taxes.

IN HOT WATER.
City Faces a Dilemma Over Coal
Contracts.
Awards We're Made to Different
Firms.
MAY Do 1T OVER.
Complication Causes RumOrs of
ReOpening Question.
OVER.
Different Kinds of Fuel to Be
Used Causes Mixup.

Topeka's municipal government is in
a queer tangle about it's 1904 coal con-
tracts. The council seems to have let
the contracts to two different firms
and now the puzzle is to draw up a
contract with each firm which will hold
that firm to the price which it bid and
at the same time not bind the city to
buy any coal of either firm unless it
so desires.
Topeka uses three kinds of coal:
lump, slack and nut. 1t has awarded
contract to the Southwestern Fuel
company for furnishing these three
kinds of coal; it has also let a con-
tract to the Webster-Tullock company
for the same thing.
The fight is said to be really between
Santa E'e 'fiuence' and Rock Island
''fluence,'' for the Southwestern Fuel
company ships largely over the Santa
Rock Island. It will be interesting to
see which railroad has the most flu
ence" in city affairs. Perhaps all the
parties interested will repudiate the
contracts and the city will have to ad-
vertiSe for new bids.
All the trouble started because of a
bungling advertisement for bids on this
years coal supply. The advertisement
coal, and would open them on a certain
date. Nothing was said about the kind
of coal wanted, or for what buildings
it was wanted. Consequently when the
bids came in from four Topeka coal
dealers, there were all sorts of coal Of
fered at all sorts of prices.
A committee of three tellers was ap-
pointed to look over these bids and try
to find out what kind of coal the city
wanted and which prices were best.
The committee consisted of Council
men Swendson, Ryder and Nellis. Mr..
NelliS went to California, and left Mr..
Swendson and Mr.. Ryder to fight it
out.
At the council meeting on September
5, the committee reported in favor OF
awarding the contract to the following
companies at the following prices:
