THE BIGGEST POSTAL THEFT
MAIL POUCH STOLEN IN KANSAS
CITY CONTAINED 100000.
Package of $50, 900 Known to Have
Been in Pouch Going from Los


Been in Pouch Going from Los
Angeles to p New York Bank.
Reluctant admissions made by
postal officers of three cities confirm
to some extent the belief that the
disappearance of a registered mail
pouch somewhere within the juris-
diction of the Kansas City postofffce
Saturday night will prove to be one
of the largest losses in the history
of the postoffice department. 1t is
learned that a package of at least
$4,000 in currency was among the
contents of the pouch, which carried
in addition an unusually large num-
Der of letters and packages contain
ing money and other valuables The
amount may reach a total of $780,
900.
The pouch was in transit from Los
Angeles to New York, and the postal
inspectors refuse any explanation of
the manner in which it became lost
That a pouch of value has disappear
ed was admitted by the department
at Washington, by Postmaster M. H.
Flint of Los Angeles and by Inspect
or w. j. Vickery, attached to the
Kansas City postoffice
The fact that the mail in process
of transfer at the union station at
Kansas City is handled in a tempo
rary sub-station since the destruction
of the regular branch Office by fire
several months ago supports the the
DRY that advantage was taken of
conditions presumed to be more lax
than ordinarily.
There is reason to believe that the
$4,000 package of currency was a
shipment made by a Los Angeles
bank to it's New York correspond
emit Cashier Charles Seyler of the
Farmers and Merchants National
Bank said:
According to our information a
mail pouch, made up here on June
and leaving for New York the fol-
lowing morning, has disappeared A
conservative valuation Of the curren-
cy contents, furnished by this and
other banks of this city, will be $50
900. The total amount is made up
of between 80 and so packages. Our
correspondent at New York is the
Chemical National Bank, to whom
our portion of the shipment was con-
signed"
The registered pouch left Los An
geles over the Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fee railroad the morning of
June 4, and was due in Kansas City
on Saturday.

A SIMPLE REMEDY
FOR DY SPEPSTA
Make it up for Yourself from a
Specialists Formula.

We publish below the formula OF
an expert stomach specialist, whose
fee for diagnosis and prescription is
$500.
Anyone is free to use this formula
and make the medicine up for him
self at home. 1t is said to be marvel
Susly curative in severe cases of in
digestion and dyspepsia, especially
where there is an excess of gas on
the stomach. On the other hand, it is
free from harmful ingredients and
will not injure the most delicate lis
sues. While immediate relief is to be
expected, it is recommended that the
treatment be continued for three
weeks in order to guarantee a com.
plete cure.

RFo teaspoonfuls before each meal.
1t is said that nearly 80 per cent.
of all indigestion and dyspepsia is
due to fermentation of food in the
stomach. This prescription is de-
signed to counteract that, to stimu-
late the digestive secretions, and to

ZERO SNOW ON A HOT WAVE.
Chicago Takes Notice When a Prom
inent Oregonian Arrives.

A Chicago dispatch says; Zero
Snow of Portland, Ore, who was
born during a blizzard, hence his
name, rode into Chicago today on
the crest of a hot wave, bringing
with him a solution of the much de-
bated question as to whether the
famous whiskers of Col. James Ham
ilton Lewis are original or copies.
Mr.. Snow, who is leading lawyer
in Portland, is a democrat, but he
has come to attend the republican
national convention as spectator.
His arrival was hailed with JOY by
the celebrities at the auditorium an
mex, who remarked a drop in the
Temperature of the rotunda soon after
the Oregon man had placed his
trapped signature on the register.
Mr.. Snow wears facial adornments
of precisely the same cut as those of
Col. Lewis, the only difference being
in color. Where the celebrated
"pinks" give one the impression of
the Aurora Borealis in full play the
Whiskers of Mr.. Snow give hint of
the same thing. only frosted. The
Portland lawyer claims the right to
the distinction of introducing the
"Cossack sweepers" to the coast.

needs work; the same is in bad or.
der. We call special attention to the
county commissioners to people pillow
ing out into the public roads; this
should not be allowed, and if the
same is not stopped it should be re-
ported to the proper authorities. We
have the information that the road
hands in some instances have gone on

bankments put there by the owners
to prevent the water from overflow
