\ Special Appeal for Robert De
Frantz.

We wish to make a special appeal to
the voters of the city of Topeka in be-
half of Mr.. Robert De Frantz. candidate
for clerk Of the city court.
Mr.. De Frantz is poor, but very in
telligent and an exceedingly deserving
young man of excellent qualities and
unimpeachable character.
He is a graduate of the Topeka high
school and is well and thoroughly quail
flied for the position he seeks
He will fill it with credit to himself
and honor to the community.
He is an orphan. Most people are &C
quainted with the manly, the heroic
struggles OF the De Frantz boys.
They are all making useful men of
themselves despite their poverty.
Robert worked his way through our
high school by backing boots, selling
newspapers and waiting table, in addi-
ton to assisting in looking after and
providing for the family. He has been
both father and mother to his other
brothers.
He taught most successfully for three
years in our city schools. He resigned
last year for the purpose of studying
medicine. He is now a student in Wash
burn college and hopes, if elected. TO
perform his duties faithfully and at
the same time to help himself complete
his medical education.
Most of US know the discourag ements
of poverty. Young De Frantz is striv-
ing to rise above them and we appeal
to all friends of struggling young men
to assist him by voting for him at the
Republican primaries Wednesday. March
s. and thus encourage him and all other

ID UCLLE co UIILY
through the fight


Conner was in Labette county when
the claim jumpers We're very daring.
The settlers formed an organization
to drive the jumpers out of the coun-
try, and they drove them out-all but
one, and that one was woman
This woman, Mrs Scott, had gone
to Labette county with her husband
and two children, and the family had
Jumped claim The husband
built a house, with a loft as the sec
ond story, and then left his family
there and went to California.
The settlers committee decided
that the Scott family must be dealt
with as were all other claim jumpers.
The committee went out TO the claim
TO inform Mrs Scott that she must
leave When the committee reached
the house they found that Mrs. Scott
had gone into the loft, through a ira D
door, had pulled the ladder up after
her and she was there armed with
two big revolvers. She declined to
leave.
The committee went back to town
and consulted. During the next few
days several posses were sent to the
Scott place but each found that Mrs.
Scott had followed the same tactics
and they were afraid to get under the
trap door or within range of her re-
volvers- Mrs. SCOTS two children
acted as pickets and when they saw
any one coming they gave the alarm
and all scurried up into the loft.
Hugh Metcalf was deputized by the
committee to drive Mrs. Scott off the
claim He did not want to under
take the job. He said the woman
would fight
do you mean to say that you will
not go and that you wish to be called
a coward all your life?" asked a lead
er of the citizens committee.
II would rather be called a coward
all my life than to be a corpse for
fifteen minutes" said Metcalf and he
declined the job which all the other
settlers also declined.
The end Of the contest with Mrs.
Scott was that the settlers committee
bought her out and sent her to Cali
fornia to join her husband. She was
the one claim jumper who defeated
the citizens committee.

THEY ARE DIGGING.
Four Thousand Men Are Working on
the Panama Canal.

New York Feb. 22.-Reports of sub
stantial progress in the actual work of
digging the great isthmian canal were
brought to this city today by Canal
Commissioners William Barclay Par
sons and w. H. Burr, who arrived on
the steamer Alliance from Colon.
Prof. Burr made the subjoined state
ment:
The committee on the engineering of
the isthmian canal commission report
that they found the work generally in
much better and more advanced condl-
ton than they anticipated. In the great
Culebra cut the detail of construction
that Will take the most time and most
money, the chief engineer has installed
and has at work three large American
steam shOvels and is erecting five more.
Four thousand laborers are now at
work on different portions of the work
and 1000 more have already been en-,
gagged in the West Indies and Central
America Substantial progress is there
fore being made.
while on the isthmus the committee
was in daily conference with the CHIEF
engineer with a view of formulating
certain plans, contracts for which can
be let at an early day. These plans and
the accompanying data will be submit
ted to the commission at Washington.
AT Panama and Colon the laying of
sewers and water pipes is progressing
steadily so that in the near future both
of these cities will for the first time be
furnished with a system of sewers ana
water supply with abundance of whole
some water. The presence of yellow
fever is to be regretted but was to be
expected as this disease is always pres
ent in tropical countries in America un-
less continued sanitary precautions
have been taken. Prior to the sanitary
work of the commission no precautions
have been taken in the isthmus to
guard against this disease
The same medical officers who sue
oaaded eliminating the fever from
Havana are now repeating the crusade
in Panama. Beyond any question
equally successful results will be had
At the present time there is nothing
approaching an epidemic and the con-
ditions are greatly improved over those
found in previous years. Some Of the
newspaper accounts that have reached
the isthmus from the north were much
exaggerated.
The committee returned more than
satisfied with the general conditions
with the general enterprise and believes
that completion can be attained in less

Philadelphia, Feb. 22-President Roose-
welt arrived in this city at 1910 O'Clock
but it was not until 10 minutes later
that he left his private car and started
for the Academy of Music, where the
Washington's birthday exercises, under
the auspices of the University of Penn

Provost c. @. Harrison, of che Uni

presidents appearance on the street
was the signal Tor a great ovation

TOOK A STRAW VOTE.

Interesting EXP eminent in a Restaurant
An advertising agent. representing a
prominent New York magazine, while
on a recent western trip, was dining one
evening in a Pittsburg restaurant.
While waiting for his order he glanc-
ed over his newspaper and noticed the
advertisement of a well-knOwn dyspep-
STA preDaration. Stuart'S Dyspepsia
Tablets AS he himself was a regular
user of the tablets. he began speculat-
ing as to how many of the other trav-
cling men in the dining room were also
friends of the popular remedy for indi-
gestioE-
He says: 1 counted twenty-three men
al the tables and in the hotel Office /
took the trouble to interview them and
was surprised to learn that nine of the
twenty-three made practice of taking
one or two of Stuart'S Dyspepsia Tab
let's after each meal.
One of them told me he had suffered
so much from stomach trouble that at
one time he had been obliged to quit
the road. but since using Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets had been entirely free
from indigestion, but he continued their
use especially while travelling, on ac-
count of irregularity in meals and be-
cause like all travelling men he was Of
ten obliged to eat what he could get
and not always what he wanted.
Another. who looked the picture of
health. said he never ate a meal with
out taking a Stuart Tablet afterward
because he could eat what he pleased
and when the pleased without fear of Il
sleepless night or any other trouble
Still another used them because he
was subject to gas on stomach, causing
pressure on heart and lungs. shOrtness
of breath and distress in chest, which
he no longer experienced since using
the tablets regularly
Another claimed that Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets was the only safe rem
edy he had ever found for sour stom-
ach and acidity- He had formerly used
common soda to relieve the trouble,
but the tablets were much better and
safer to use
After smoking, drinking or other ex-
cesses which weaken the digestive or
gans. nothing restores the stomach to a
healthy. wholesome condition so effect
ually as Stuart's Tablets
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain
the natural dfgestives, pepsin, diastase,
which every weak stomach lacks, as
well as nux, hydrastin and yellow par
lila and can be safely relied on as a
radical cure for every form of poor di-
gestion. Sold by druggists everywhere.

or not he had met Mrs. Gelshenen in
Europe, did, in fact, meet Mrs. Gelshen-
en- in Naples Just before he sailed for
New York on the Deutschland.
One of the first witnesses examined
nv the grand jury in the Dodge Morse
case was ex-Mayor Robert A Van
Wyck The former mayor remained
less than ten minutes in the grand jury
room. Tt was impossible to learn the
nature Of his testimony. Mr.. Van
Wyck and John F. Carroll. who was
before the grand jury last week. were
associated with Morse in the ice trust.
