HAVE SPENT ALL THE CASH.
Work Has Stopped for the Present on
tho Dodge City Well.

Dodge City, Dec. 3O.-work on the
prospect hole has probably been stop
ped until warm weather. 1t is the best
judgment of the promoters of this
Dodge City enterprise that the hole
will have to be drilled wet for the next
500 feet and to risk burdening the ma
chinery with so much wet cable In
probably freezing weather is not to be
considered.
The $1,000 raised to make the prospect
has been spent and it will be necessary
to raise more money before much work
is done. The experience gained so far
added to the experience in the we'll at
Lamar, justifies the belief that there is
water all the way down. A wet well is
much harder to drill than a dry hole.
1t is necessary to pull casing and ream
the hole with every new water
tratum. 1t was in attempting to pull
the casing at the $40 feet depth thai
caused the part in the casing. The wen
is in good shape to let stand, as 1t is
cased all the way down.

BALD EAGLE KILLED.
Rare Bird Shot Near SaIina and VIII

Salina, Dec. 3O.-A. K. Boyles has re-

This, as we'll as the one which was

scarce and more but the bald eagle is
seldom seen. Beyond these two, Mr..
Boyles. the taxidermist, has received
no other bald eagles for stuffing.
Both of these birds were young and
were just beginning to grow the white
feathers around the head which give
them the appearance of being bald and
from which appearance they derive
their name. A bald eagle must be four
years old before it gets the white head
and tail. Mr.. Boyles believes the last
of these eagles was q two-year-old

gagged with them that he is apt to for

ture of the entertainment, their dane

novel and unique as well as graceful
and captivating. Some clownish per-
formances injected into the dances
gave a variety that robbed them of the
usual methodical evolutions.
Adelaide Rothe the Coincidence, Bill

cess is assured.
Chairman Mckinley, of the con-
gressional committee, said ne has
heard from every republican congress
sional committeeman in Indiana and
all reported to him that Indiana Ger
tainly is safe for the republican ma
tional ticket. Mr.. Mckinley said that
Illinois will not only re-elect every re-
publican congressional candidate, but
will give a majority for Taft and
Sherman.
Mckinley said he had assured Chair
man Hitchcock that the new next
lower house of congress will be re-
publican.
James Sherman, republican vice
presidential nominee, brought an en-
thusiastic and encouraging report of

When Your Stomach Hurts
Take a Little Kodol
The pain will then cease-your stomach will feel
good. Kodo stops the pains of indigestion and dys-
pepsa quickly because it dgests all the food you eat

strong. Do not diet or starve your.
self. That is not the way to get
help.
Eat what you want of the food
you like, and let Kodol help the
stomach do its work. You can't
be well unless you eat and unless
you enjoy your food. You can't
get nourishment from your food.
unless you digest 1t. Take a little
Kodol now and then. That Is the
only safe and sure way.
You do not have to depend on
Kodol all the time. You only take
It when you need It.
