BLOTTED
FROM FACE BY
X=RAY.

Baltimore, March 19.-One Of BaIti-
more's leading physicians, DR.. Howard
Kelly, made the positive statement to-
day that Mrs. House, wife of the Rev.
George House of Richmond, Va, had
been cured of skin cancer by the *
ray treatment.
Mrs. House has been completely rid
of a cancer on the face" DR.. Kelly
said 1.-The credit belongs to DR.. G. c.
Gilchrist and not to me. Mrs. House
came to me from Jamaica suffering
with a cancer that had developed while
she was there. I turned her over to
DR.. Gilchrist who has had wonderful
success with the X-rays in the treat
ment of that disease.
IN a few weeks Mrs. House came to
see me again completely cured. Her
face was rot even marred by scars.
The same specialist recently cured a
physician by the same treatment"
DR.. GiIchrist, beyond acknowledging
that the woman had been his patient
and that she had been cured by the
x-ray treatment, declined to discuss
the case. He declared, however, that
the cure was absolute and permanent.

Havana for Topeka.

The State Journal has received the
following communication via New Or
leans:
The well known cigar manufactur-
er, Mr.. Geo. Burghart. of Topeka,
Kas., has purchased a choice quantity
of Vuelta Havana direct from Cuba,
through the firm of Rothschild Bros.
This places the Burghart factory in
position to compete with the best
clear Havana manufactures of the
present. This should be appreciated
now from the fact that the scarcity
of Havana has excited keen cOmpeti-
ton in the purchase of the genuine
article.
Mr.. Burghart is to be congratulated
on his progFessiveness in securing this
fine lot of tobacco, and will no doubt
be highly appreciated by the smokers
of his well known brand Aurora.

gresham at large from Kansas. The

Scott favored this great organ of re-
form with a full set of garden seeds.
While of course Dutch cabbage,
breakfast radishes, and frizzy headed
lettuce are not to be sneezed at still
in the higher walks of politics, where
the Gazette has pleased itself by

in saying that Congressman-at -Large
Scott has grown more in power and
grace in the past ten months than
any other member of the Kansas dele
cation, the Gazette desires it to be
known in advance that the mere fact
that a package of duplex adjustable,
easy running garden seeds came to
the office today from Congressman
Scott had nothing to do with the pro-
clamation of this opinion. Senator
