What the State Pure Food De-
partment Discovered.
Patent Medicines EearfuIIy and
Wonderfully Made.
ANALYSIS Is MADE.
Many Show Large Percentage
of Alcohol.
Result of the Investigations Is
Made Public.

Fifty samples Of orphan" patent
medicine have been examined by the
chief chemist for the state pure food
and drug department, and the result is
that many of them are found to contain
extraordinary drugs, and to be con-
trary to the laws Of the state.
Orphan" medicine is not intended
for fatherless and motherless children.
patent medicine which is an
orphan" is one manufactured some
time ago. and of which the manufac-
turer has gone out Of business or can
not be located. Hence there is no one
to be held responsible for these medi-
cines, and the druggist must see to it
that preparations of this nature which
do not conform to the law are taken
from his shelves.
There are some mighty interesting
specimens Of patent medicine in the
lot. Lockwood's Nerve and Bone Lini-
ment is found to consist of per cent
of turpentine dissolved in mineral OIL
Genuine Kickapoo Cough Syrup, which
claims to cure all diseases of throat
and lungs, contains tar, ammonium
chloride and syrup. Anyone who wants
a good, powerful stimulant should try
Kidnegen for kidney diseases. This
contains AZ per cent of alcohol. War
ner's Log Cabin Extract goes this one
better with 62 per cent of alcohol. The
following testimonial is given by the
chemist to DR.. o. p. Browns Liver In
vigorator: "Misbranded, cure for all
diseases Of the liver. 1t is a dirty
brown solution of intensely bitter
drugs, and contains large amount Of
unsightly precipitate in suspension"
Dr. Turner's Shaker Neurogen, for
nervous troubles, contains Is per cent
of alcohol, which ought to help most
anybody's nerves. Cooks Gold Bond
Oil, which claims to be a cure for
eighteen diseases, most of which are
considered incurable, consists OF tur-
pentine and alcohol in a light brown
solution

Government Appropriation Per-
mits Trial of Land Fraud Case.
It Begins Today in Criminal
Court at Washington.
ON DOCKET 4 YEARS.
Two Hundred Witnesses From
Fourteen States on Hand.
Indictments Charge the Defend
ants With Conspiracy.

Washington, April 1.-The trial of
the land fraud case against Frederick
A. Hyde, John A. Benson, Henry P.
Dimond and Joast H. Schneider in
volving an alleged conspiracy to de-
fraud the United States out of valu-
able lands in several western states,
was begun here today before Justice
Stafford in criminal court No. l. Up
wards of 200 witnesses from IA states
in the west where the alleged fraudu-
lent requirement of lands was effected,
are here for the trial
This case has been on the dockets
OF the courts here and in California
for the past four years, the trial haV-
ing been postponed from time to time.
One of the delays was caused because
Of lack of funds to pay witness fees
and other expenses. An appropriation
of 100000 was made by congress at It's
present session to cover the cost OF the
trial It is believed that the trial Will
continue for at least three months.
The indictments against the four men
charged conspiracy, hatched IN inns
city in 1901 to defraud the United
States out of many thousands of acres
Of public land in the west. 1t is al
legged that these men operating through
the names of fictitious persons, &C,
quired school lands in OREGON ana
California by false entries and forged
with the help of information from SUB
sidized clerks in the general land OF
flee.
Benson, who is San Francisco mil
lionaire, resisted extradiction from
California, as did his co-defendants'
who are alleged to have done the act,
ual work in the field and later carried
the case to the United States supreme
court where a decision unfavorable TO
them was handed down. Binger Her
mann, commissioner of the general lana
Office at the time and later repre-
sentative in congress from oregon,
sent Special Agents Helsinger and
Magee out west to investigate. The
report was submitted to Hermann,
who it is alleged held it up. f1nally
it was brought to the attention OF
former Secretary of the interior
Hitchcock by Magee. The former sec
rotary detailed secret service officers
and attorneys of the department OF
Justice on the case. Their findings LED
to the Indictment of the defendants.
The government side of the case is
represented by District Attorney Ba-
ker, special assistants in the depart,
ment of justice, Arthur B. Pugh ana
Francis j. Heney. The four de1end-
ants are represented by A. S. Worth
ington, r. Golden Donaldson and A:
A. Burney of the Washington bar, and
Joseph c. Campbell of San Francisco
and WI Vandiver of New York.

A $4,000 BANQUET HALL.
The Masons VIII Dedicate Almost a
Palace at Their April Meeting.

Fort Scott, Kan, April THAT
the Scottish Rite Masons of the Fort
Scott consistory have spent the sum
OF $4,000 on the banquet hall soon
to be dedicated seems too near
fabulous to be true; yet 1t is a fact
and the hall, which will be opened
Is the handsomest dining hail in Kan
sas. 1t is so pronounced by all know
ing ones who have viewed it,
The April reunion of Masons will
convene the 9Th and will remain in
session until the 9th. At this reunion
q. class of 100 will be indicted into
the order and given the work up to
the 32nd degree. It will be one Of the
biggest reunions Masonry has known
in this corner of Kansas.
The banquet hall which is accepted
generally as a model for architectural
effects has just been completed the
finishing touches having been put on
Of late when the automatic apparatus
sandpapered the maple wood floor
The hall is sufficiently large to &C.
comma date five hundred diners. The
ceiling is done in oval arches, there
being ten such arches, artistically
touched in white and gold with the
Sind degree emblem inscribed. In the
rear an aerial orchestra room is pro-
vided, under which modern kitchen
has been installed. The ten arches
over the hall and the side apterten-
ances as well are veritable network
of incandescent lights. The intense
food of light upon the gold, white
and green colorings produces a sight

LOOK OUT FOR A FREEZE
Wind Tonight May Save Fruit Buds
From AnnihilatiOn.

Today has been cold and raw with a
strong wind blowing from the north
west at of from 20 to 80 miles an
hour though the sun has been shining
in an Indifferent way through it all.
In the northwestern portion of the
state the mercury dropped to 20 de-
grees above the zero point and death
followed in it's wake for the forward
peach blossoms.
The indications are that wind will
prevail throughout tonight and that
the mercury will reach point several
degrees below the freezing point which
means that the tender buds and early
gardens may be nipped. The first corn
and wheat bulletin of the season was
issued by the weather department in
this city and each day the report will
be sent out until after the corn is laid
by this fall. 3

fected Monday by United States Postal
Inspector OConnel1 here, the federal
authorities believe that they have CAP
tured one of teh two men who finf1am-
med several large business houses in
different sections of the United States

counts charging him with having used
the mails to cary on frauds.
According to the federal officers
Accola and Wolff did business under

similar to the one used by Accola and
Wolff. Among the concerns which
were victimized were Max Plat & Co.,

MORE DREADED THAN DEATH.
The Publication of Ones Letters After
His Demise.

New York. April There is one
thing to be feared more than death,
Miss Agnes Repplier told the league
for political education yesterday. that
is that ones letters may be published
afterwards. @-
"As a rule" she said, "the letters Of
a great man are hurried into print by
his relatives and friends, and are
published in time to pay the funeral
expenses. The publication of Mrs.
Browning's love letters was an offense
against good taste and the publication
of Keats letters to his lady love was
an offense to the ages.
There is nothing that delights us
so much as to read something that
was never intended for our perusal. A
Frenchman admits this and the edi-
tor of Victor Hugo's letters, written
when he was an immature boy of 18

intended for the eye of any one but
the one to whom they were sent, and
how lucky we are to get them

HAVE A SPLENDID RECORD.
Girard Rural Carriers Never Missed q
Trip in Seven Years.

Girard, Kan, April 1.-Girard has
two rural mail carriers who have
proud record.
On the 18th of this month o. B.
Woolley, rural carrier No. 2, and ]. r.
Clerihan, rural carrier No. 3, COM
pleted seven years service on their re-
spective routes. During that time Mr..
Woolley has never missed day. ex-
cept those holidays allowed by the de-
partment. This is a wonderful record,
when one takes into consideration the
bad roads, the extreme cold and also
the heat, the wet and the dry and the
snow and the rain. During this time
he has averaged over 5000 pieces of
mail a month, and in the seven years
has driven over $4,000 miles.
Mr.. Clerihan's record is wonderful,
too, when it is taken into consideration
that he is 10 years of age. He has
missed but thirteen days during his
seven years service, has delivered on
an average of 5000 pieces of mail
monthly, and has travelled about the
same distance that Mr.. Woolley has.

JOHNSON SEES G0MPERS
Finds American Federation Of Labor
Isn't Hostile to Kansas.

w. L. A. johnson, commissioner of
labor. returned Tuesday from Wash
ington, ID. c.. where he went to at
tend meeting of the executive com
mittee of the National Association of
Labor Commissioners, of which asso-
citation Mr.. Johnson is secretary.
While in Washington, Mr.. johnson
had conference with Samuel Com
pers, head of the American Federation
of Labor.
ST talked over the Kansas situation
with Mr. Gompers," said Mr.. Johnson,
"and found that he has nothing, but
the most kindly feelings for the state
society Of labor and for myself. There
is no fight between this society and
the American Federation of Labor"
The executive committee of the as
ISOLATION of labor commissioners were
in conference with United States Labor
Commissioner Charles P. Neill regard
ing the adoption of uniform schedules
for all state and national reports on
labor conditions.
Mr.: johnson said: 1.-THE great neces-
sity for uniform schedules to be used
by the various statistical bureaus
throughout the United States is well
known and understood. For instance,
il an investigation is made upon the
cost of living in Kansas and a similar
investigation is made in Missouri by
the bureau of that state-the results
of these Investigations will not be COM
parable or of any particular value as
between states for the purpose of COM
parison, unless each are made upon
the same relative basis and upon the
same form of schedule. This is true
of not only the cost of living. but the
investigation of manufacturing sta
tistics. wage Garner statistics and in
fact all other statistical Investigations.
"Our Committee at this meeting
agreed upon a uniform schedule for
the cost of living, manufacturing sta
tistics. labor organization statistics and
will also make a recommendation that
a uniform investigation be taken up
on. the subject of accidents and dam
ages. This latter investigation, if fol-
lowed up, will have a far reaching
effect, in that it will bring out a CLASH
fication of accidents which will make
possible an improvement in factory in
spection laws and may also go far to-
wards throwing much light upon the
desirability for workingman's COM
pensation act, similar to that now en-
joyed by most European countries"

dazzlingly lovely and beautiful. The
hall is the costliest in Kansas, and
many visitors gaze upon its rare and
wonderful beauty daily. The side
walls are to be hung in oil paintings
which means another outlay Of a con-
siderable sum of money. The hall,
under full glow OF light is SO wonder
fully beautiful that one imagines
himself in fairyland surrounded by it's
unequaled beauty. The hall will long
stand as monument to the enter
prise of the Scottish Rite Masons
who have gone to so much pains to
make the Fort Scott cathedral the
finest in Kansas.

monthly meeting held Tuesday even
ing, twenty-six men being present, di-
vided themselves into two groups to
be known during the month of April
as the Kay's and Vicklund's. The
membership committee have divided
in the same manner several times be-
fore and it has always created an in
terest to see which side could secure
the largest number of points during
the month. 1t is this committees
faithful work which has put the To-
peka railroad department into the po-
sition of the fourth largest railroad
association of the world, and as the
month of April closes the year. the
committee are determined to main
tain their enviable record and keep
their membership over the 1000
mark. To help stimulate the COM
mittee to its greatest endeavor during
these dull times when the shop men
are on short hours. The Hamilton
Watch Co., of Lancaster, Pa, has do
mated to the committee one of their
high grade, 21 jewel movement STAN

The above watch and gold case will
be given to the member of the MEM
bership committee who score the
highest number of points during the
month of April
The member bringing in the second

The membership committee made a
net gain for the month of March of
eight. Total membership todate, 1850.
The work the association is doing
makes it easy to- secure members be-
cause the railroad men are interested
in their own organization.
