THEY CAN HAVE EN-.
Kansas Not Anxious to Keep Its In
sane Guests.

An Exchange of prisoners is being
arranged between Kansas insane
asyIums and the insane asylums of adj
joining states. In the Kansas asylum
are a lot of patients who were really
not residents of the state when placed
in the hospital, and who should be
taken care of by other states. And it
is highly probable that in adjoining
states there are patients who should be
taken care of in Kansas. In order to
get things arranged on the proper
basis. the state board of control is try
ing to arrange with Nebraska, Mis-
souri,, Colorado and several other
states TO send all their Kansas patients
to some Kansas asylum and receive in
return the patients which belong in
the respective states.
Kansas has now adopted the policy
of refusing to take care of insane peo-
pie who are not legal residents of the
state. If a case of insanity is found
which has apparently been shipped in
here from some place else, it Will be
taken back to the state from whence
it came. The board has given instruc-
lions in the Samuel Madsen case from
Kansas City how this should be done.
Madsen was taken up in Kansas
City, Kan. He was a resident of Mis-
souri, The board of control refused
TO admit him to a Kansas hospital.
The Wyandotte county officials COM
municated with the officials of Kansas
City, Mo, and the Missouri officials re-
fused to come after the man. The
Wyandotte county people didn't know
what to do.
The board of control says in a letter to
Probate Judge Winfield Freeman of Kan
sas City, Kan, that Madsen should be
placed in the hands of the sheriff of Wy
andotte county, taken to the office of the
sheriff across the Missouri line and turn
ed loose in the Missouri sheriffs office.
Then # Missouri wants the man it can
have l1im. Otherwise he will be at large
in g Missouri community.
This IS rather severe treatment for the
crazy man. but it seems to be about the
only way to keep the state from being i'm
posed upon. Kansas can't afford to take
care of all the crazy people in this part
of the United States.
In a letter to Mr.. Freeman the board of
control speaks of the proposed scheme for
exchanging the patients of the various
states and getting things started off on an
euitable basis. The board says:
I'VE exoect to take uD matters of this
kind with the boards of the different sta ties
and see # we can arrange for the transfer
of patients between states. This, how
ever, will take some time, as the counties
in Missouri, understand the law,
have to pay for the maintenance of insane
persons, and arrangements may have to
be made with the counties as well as with
state boards

Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success Of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upos the Fact that It
Really Does Make Sick Women Well

thousands upon thousands of Ameri-
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegeta-
BILE Compound. Their letters are on file
in Mrs. Pinkham's Office, and prove this
statement to be fact and not mere
boast.
Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with 1t all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound accomplished its wide
spread results for good ?
Why has it lived and thrived and
done its glorious work for a quarter of
a century?
Simply and surely because of its ster-
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world so
good for women's ills.
The wonderful power of Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound over
the diseases of womankind is not be-
cause it is a stimulant-not because it is
a palliative. but simply because it is
the most wonderful tonic and recon
structor ever discovered to act directly
upon the uterine system, positively
CURING disease and displacements and

Marvellous cures are reported from
all parts of the country by women who
have been cured, trained nurses who
have witnessed cures, and physicians
who have recognized the virtue in
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, and are fair enough to give
credit where it is due. If physicians
dared to be frank and open, hundreds
of them would acknowledge that they
constantly prescribe Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound in severe
cases of female ills, as they know bv
experience that it will effect a cure.

BITULITHIC GETS IT..
Contract for state House Pavement Is
Awarded.

Warren's bitulithic pavement will be
used to the extent of $4,000 worth for
paving the state house drives and
walks. The bitulithic people were
given the contract by the executive
council over the Trinidad asphalt and
the natural rock asphalt. The bid on
natural rock asphalt was SLIP, on
bitulithic $3.50. and on Trinidad s1.S5.
The work must be completed by
Oct. Is.
At the recommendation of State
Architect Stanton, the pavement will
be laid on the north and south ap-
proaches, and on the remainder of the
sidewalks outside of the drives. The
work can not be entirely completed,
because there is not money enough
, available. 1t will take about $4,000
more to complete the job.
The bitulithic pavement was repre-
scented by Fred Webster of Topeka, the
Trinidad by the Kansas City agent,
and natural rock had no representa-
tive present in person.
Governor Hoch, who has just re-
turned from a trip to Washington,
where he saw the streets beautifully
paved with asphalt, was inclined to
favor the Trinidad proposition. Sec
rotary of State RurrOw, State Treas
urer Kelly and Attorney General Cole
man, however, were for bitulithic.
State Architect Stanton also recon-
mended bitulithic very highly.
The bitulithic pavement is COM
posed of crushed stones and bitumen,
and forms a pavement almost as solid
as stone. The cement and macadam
base which is now laid on the state
house walks will be used as base for
the bitulithic, and the curbing is al
ready in place. This work which has
been done will save the state about so
cents a yard on the cost of the btu
lithic pavement

CLARK ENTERS A DENIAL.
Says He Didn't Divide Profits With
Henry Allen.

George A. Clark. formerly state print
er, denies the story told by Cy Leland
about a division of the spoils of the
state printers office between himself
and Henry Allen. He says the story
was started as a result of the feud be-
tween Leland and Allen, and that he
would let them fight out their griev-
ances.
There is no truth in Leland's story
he said but 1 don't care to discuss the
affair There is a little fact on which
to base the charge Leland makes. but it
is small. Allen and l did hold a consul
tation and decided that Allen should
Withdraw, because, as Leland says,

We wanted to beat Hoch out of the
place then and it was necessary for one

Another interesting case filed yester-
day in the supreme court is that of
Yewen Griffith, administrator of the es-
tate of Mrs. Isabella Gum, against Al
exandrina Robertson. All the people
concerned in the case are Scotch, and
they live down in Sumner county. Alex
andrina Robertson is the daughter of
Isabella Gum. She claims that she
came to America under a contract to
take care of her mother, who weighed
about 200 pounds and was not very well.
The mother owned good farm. Alex
andrina fell in love with her mothers
hired man, and married him. Then
Mrs. Gum got mad at Robertson, and
discharged him from her employ So
Mr.. and Mrs Robertson were obliged to
live apart
Finally Mrs. Gum died. and Alexan-
drina brought suit against the admin
istrator to get her SO week, which
she claimed her mother had agreed to
pay her. There were also some special
items on the bill which brought the to-
tai up to $2,1SS, and the jury gave a
verdict for the full amount. The ad-
ministrator appeals the case.
Melvina Coffenburger thinks that the
Wyandotte court of common pleas gave
her the worst of it in sustaining the
demurrer of Bale Waggener in a dam
age suit which she brought against the
Kansas City Northwestern railroad, and
she has appealed the case to the SUI
preme court.
Melvina Coffenburger's husband was a
switchman. He was run over by an en-
CINE and killed while at work. His wife
sued for $4,000. After listening to all
the testimony in her behalf, the court
sustained the demurrer filed by Mr..
Waggener on behalf of the railroad
company.

Bright Prospects For Our Miners.

With silver at 81 cents per ounce
and lead and copper booming, it Ger.
tainly is time for Nevada to cheer up
Silver is higher than it has been fol-
four years, and it is confidently pre-.
dicted that copper will go to 20 cents
a pound by the end of the year. Lead
is being settled for at the rate of $5.15
per hundred pounds, an advance of q
cents since the beginning of the
month, and of nearly a dollar since
the first Of the year.
Our mining men can surely afford
to look pleasant, for things are com.
ing their way in large punches. Ne
vada's chief mineral products are gold,
silver. copper and lead. Given a on
tinnance of present prices and they
are more likely to 60 higher than
lower, nothing can hold the state
back.
In many instances the money is
used in opening other mines, in build.
ing homes and helping the business
trade and giving employment to
hundreds Of wage-earners. We con-
gratulate the miners on the bright
ness of their outlook, and we congrat-
ulate the public, too, for the public
must inevitably share in the prosper
ity of the miners.
