APPENDICITIS A

The word appendicitis was coined
IN 1856 by DR.. Reginald n. Fitz a
Boston physician He saws he I'm
vented 1t to suit his purpose of call
ing attention to- inflammation OF the
appendix as an object OF direct treat
ment. Before that time the names
used had not given the appondiY If
self the discredit belonging TO Il as
the actual cause OF the trouble.
From the great mass OF operations
which have been performed since
Fltz'a article appeared It has been
posible to make exhaustive studies O,
the disease. Even yet. however. the
physicians say they don't know what
Is the function OF the appendix. The
causes are better understood
For time everybody was blaming
grape seeds. That theory has been
exploded. Foreign bodies, ouch as
pins. seeds. stones. bullets and homes
are not found in the great majority
OF cases.
In 1000 cases at Johns Hopkins
Hospital foreign bodies were found
In only four. In many cases the
contents OF tho apendl1 resemble
fruit stones. but they are really or
ganic matter and salts.
Violent oIertion and blows ara
causes OF the disease far more often

 Topeka, Dec 19.--On the grounds that the Missouri Pacific railroad does not give adequate train service on sew eral of it's Kansas lines quo warranto proceedings may be brought to forfeit the companys charter, have a receiver appointed and the property sold to some company that will give the pro per service. The board of railroad commissioners has instructed it's at torney, c. F. Grattan, to begin pro reedings at once to compel the Mis- souri Pacific to give adequate train service on it's Kansas lines. If the company does not comply MT. Grattan Is to institute such action in the courts as he considers necessary to forfeit the charter of the company.
 ! The Missouri Pacific took eight trains off it's Kansas lines recently. When the trains were discontinued the company announced that it could not operate these trains under the two cent fare. Many complaints have been coming to the office of the railroad commissioners regarding the train ser vice. Petitions signed by hundreds of business men have been filed. The citizens also have filed complaints with the postoffice department. The railroad commissioners met Tuesday and this is the letter it ordered sent to it's attorney:
 The board Is advised that passen- ger train service has been discon- tinued on the following branch lines of the Missouri Pacific Railway company in Kansas Downs to Lenora, S5 miles; Downs to Stockton, 42 miles; Conway Springs to Larned, LOG miles; i; Topeka to Fort Scott, 131 miles, and other branches.
 The board believes that it is as much the duty of the Missouri Pacific Railway company to furnish adequate passenger train facilities as it is to furnish freight service, this regardless Of the fact that the freight service is the more remunerative. It also be- lieves that the charter granted by the state of Kansas to the Missouri Pacific Railway company comprehends the furnishing of such passenger train ser vice as we'll as freight service.
 "The purpose of this letter is to ad- wise you that 1t is the wish of the board that you forthwith file com plaint before the board of railway commissioners asking for the restora- ton of passenger service so discon- tinued, or in lieu thereof institute pro, per action in the courts for the revoca- tion of the charter of such company if you as attorney for the board have power to institute such an action to forfeit a charter"

4 CI)RIHY(U STATEMENT
Secretary of Treasury Denies that He Is a Candidate for the
 Presidency.
DECLARES CURRENT RUAOHs ARE FALSE
MT. cortelyou Says That When he is a Candidate For Any Office he Will Frankly Announce the Fact 10 the Publc--Has Decided Views Though.

Washington, Dec. 19.-Secretary Cortelyou, in signed statement given out Tuesday night, pronounces un- qualifiedly false the current rumors of undue political activity of his friends in forwarding a movement in his interest. The secretary declares that neither he nor his friends have used their influence in behalf of any candidate for the presidency and that he has not been candidate for any thing but the confidence of the peo. pie. He adds that If he should here after decide to be candidate for any office, he will say so frankly. The statement follows:
 'I do not know that am called upon to make a statement at this time, but in view of the various rumors in cir culation as to the alleged political ac- 5vity of friends of mine in my in terest, will say that I have not been candidate for anything but the con fidence of the people in the discharge of my duty as secretary of the treas ury have not in person sought nor have the friends whose names have been mentioned in this connection sought to influence political move ments In my interest; have not, nor have they, used any influence, direct ly or indirectly, to secure political support for or against any candidate for the presidency and accusations that such has been done are unquali- fiedly false. In no office, in no one of the three departments with which I have been connected have author lzed or permitted officials or employees to attempt to influence any such movements, nor shall do so. In com mon with many other citizens, I have decided views as to policies and as to candidates, but I shall refrain from expressing them until 1 believe it is proper for me to do so. Upon this statement I am entirely content to leave the people to draw their own conclusions regarding such rumors as those to which I have referred. If in the future I shall decide to be candidate for any office I shall be prepared to say so frankly and state the grounds upon which I ask for support In the meantime 1 shall try, as have tried in the past, to conduct the treasury department for the bene- fit of the people of the whole country, and absolutely without regard to whether any action may take in the line of my duty may adversely affect my personal or political welfare"
