ATCHISON Mine CLOSED.
Directors Decide Not to Open the
Work Before Spring.

Atchison, Kan, Nov. 26.-Smoke is
still flying from the stack at the coal
mine, but it means nothing more than
a cleaning up. Rails are being removed
from the bottom, and cribbing is being
done to protect the entries while the
mine remains closed AS soon as this
work is completed, which will be in
few days, the mine will be allowed to
fill with water. There are no plans for
starting up. J. w. Orr, president OF
the company, is in Omaha, trying
case which may require all week, and
William Carlisle, who is such an i'm
portant stockholder that nothing is
done without consulting him, left for
Pittsburg, Pa, yesterday on business
connected with the Carlisle-Pennell
Lumber company. 1t is understood that
the district officers of the miners union
teIephoned to Mr.. Orr Saturday regard
ing their proposition for another test,
but were informed that the mine had
been closed. T. c. Williams, one of
the officers, was here all of Monday.
Many areu rging that the company pro-
coed as an open mine, but the trustees
seem to have no such intention. In
fact, they apparently have no DISPOSE
ton to proceed at all.
The directors of the mine have made
long and valiant fight to keep the
work on this property going, high

DEFICIT IN SIGHT.
Germany Will Need More Money for
Her Railroads.

Berlin. Nov. 26.-The Prussian die
opened today in the Whitehall of the
palace, Prince Won Buelow. the i'm
perial chancellor, in the emperor's ab-
sence, read the speech from the
throne. 1t stated that the growth OF
permanent expenditures had increased
the budget by over $25,000,00O.
The chancellor said that deficit is
expected in the current year owing
to the increased expenses in the rail-
road administration and that the gov
eminent would have to resort to q
loan for extending the railroad sys-
tenn, building new roads, double track
ing of old lines, and for additional
rolling stock.
The speech foreshadowed bill
authorizing the government to ac-
quire Polish estates by condemnation
proceedings under the law of eminent
domain. This measure. which was
actively discussed some months ago, IS
expected to reopen the agitation over
the Polish question in an acute form.
The governments project has been
criticised by even the leading conserv-
ative organs. The speech from the
throne expresses the government $
conviction that both houses of the diet
will give active cooperation in the
settling of this grave national ques-
ton"

ITCHING TORTURES
YIELDED TO CUTICURA

"While was doing missionary work
in the lower portion of several cities
found it necessary to know little Of
the efficacy of a few medicines and
after while found that little knowl-
edge of Cuticura was about all needed.
One Of the very bad cases had to deal
with was that of a young woman who
had come to us not only broken in
physically. Our doctor examined her
and told us that she had scabies (the
itch), incipient paresis, rheumatism,
etc., brought on from exposure and the
poor body was a mass of sores from
scratching and she was not able to
retain solid food. We tried many things,
a good tonic was prescribed and baths
with rubbing of lard and sulphur. We
worked nard for seven weeks and you
can imagine how discouraged we. were
when, after all that time, we could see
SO little improv ement. One day hap
pened to see a Cuticura advertisement
telling how, little baby had been
and although 1 had but ninety-seven
cents with me, bought a cake of Cuti-
cura Soap and bottle of Cuticura
Resolvent. When / reached home
bathed our patient well and gave her
full dose of the Resolvent. She slept
that night better than she had since
she had been with us and the next day
I located the price of box of Cuticura
Ointment. / am not exaggerating
when I say that in exactly Ave weeks
this young woman was able to look for
a position, being strong enough to work
and full of ambition. In another
a good position in a nice family where
she is respected and is strong and well.
