On a Rumor That the Preferred Stock
Is to Be Retired.

New York Aug. 13.-Union Pacific
common stock touched 215 in the stock
market today and the preferred stock
points for the common and 10 points
for preferred. No authoritative infor-
nation could be had to account for the
rise in these stocks but conjecture was
very busy with the form to be taken
by the plan for the segregation of the
investment holdings of the company in
the stocks of other railways.
The formation of this plan was put
into the hands of a committee two years
ago, but a long period elapsed without
discussion of it and this gave rise to
an assumption that it had been aban-
dCned. 1t was rumored today that the
preferred stock would be retired on ad-
vantageous terms and leave the claims
OF the common stock to share in the as
sets free and clear.

BROWNS IN THE KAW.
UemueI Wins, Aged Is, the Latest
River Victim.

Lemuel Wins, 13-year-old son OF
Moses Wins, negro expressman5 was
drowned at 1915 o'clock this morning
In the Kaw river above the Rock
Island bridge The police force and
friends and relatives have dragged the
river all day in an attempt to find the
body without result.
The boy lived at 1924 North Jack
son street and has been working with
a nursery gang at Granville until to-
day when he told his father it was too
not to work any longer and remained
yat home.
In company with Joe Anderson,
aged IL years; Jesse Snead, aged 10
years, and George Radford, aged IA,
Wins went swimming in the river this
morning at a point directly behind the
"B' street Baptist church where a
rock jetty protects the bank from the
high waters. The current at this
point and for several hundred yards is
very strong and the water more than
ID feet deep.
The drowned boy could not swim.
in fact only one of the four could.
That was Anderson. All began play
ing in a shallow place by the bank,
got beyond his depth and tried to
swim. staying up for several yards,
when Anderson tried to reach him
with long stick but failed.
The police, notified, secured the
several sets of graphing hooks from
the Foster Humane sociey while divers
began plunging into the water. Three
boats volunteered assistance and began
dragging and continued all day.
The father of the boy came running
down to the river soon after the acct
dent. A crowd had already gathered
and the old expressman seemed the
coolest of the lot in getting a search
started. Hes my last boy" he said.
II never knew he came down here
Then he picked up a small pair of
overalls and an old straw hat which
had belonged to his son and looked at
them with tears in his eyes. Fifteen
minutes and an hour later saw the old
man sitting on a log beside the river
half concealed from view by the tall
weeds on the bank, bending over the
straw hat and overalls in his lap
searching the river with his eyes, en-
tirely oblivious to his surroundings or
the many people.

MISSOURI GOOD ROADS.
County Commissioners Got Pointers
in Sister State.

The board of county commissioners
today thrashed over the good roads
proposition with a great deal of light
thrown upon the subject from Mis-
souri,. The board spent yesterday in
Kansas City and neighboring country
looking over the rock and oiled roads.
They brought back charts and maps
of the roads and their construction.
The 500 miles of rock roads in Jack
son county, Missouri, were matter
of wonder for the commissioners.
They've got both the money and the
rocks there" said Chairman F. B.
Sims, land they make good use of
1.-THE saloon tax is what does it..
But We have this year $4,000 more
money for roads than ever before and
will be able to do something our
selves"
In Missouri they are using rock
and macadam roads nearly altogether
and are oiling the macadam," said E.
O'Neil
"They have never tried oiling dirt
roads there and We could learn moth
ing from them on that score. Here
we are going to experiment upon the
gravel roads oiled. We can not get
the rock but believe the gravel, for
which there are any number of good
pits, will make excellent roads if
properly Oiled"

That the irrigation congress aid with
other conservation organizations to
bring about waterway improvements,
reforestation and other like projects.
That there be brought about sur
veys and estimates of reclamation of
submerged lands where the work is in
ternational in character
(This refers to northern Idaho
more specifically
That the reclamation act be extend
ed to Hawaii.
That the states pass laws regulating g,
cutting of public and private tim
Der.
That there should be no political
lines with reference to the use of
water for irrigation.
That the Mississippi deep waterway
be developed.
The committee turned down the
bond issue after a severe debate.
No hint of the Ballinger- Pinchot

A LITTLE RED SPOT
Novel Experiment by Which 1t May
Be Made to Disappear.


A peculiar feature about poslam, the
new skin discovery, is that no one is
asked to buy it without first sending
to the Emergency Laboratories, No.
80 West Twenty-fifth street, New York
city. for an experimental sample and
applying same to an affected part of
the skin, about the size of a silver dol
lar. 1t will clear the spot so treated
in twenty-four hours-a remarkable
visual demonstration of its powers.
While poslam has been mentioned
principally in connection with the cure
of eczema, the most stubborn of skin
diseases, it must be remembered that
when used for itch, hives, p1mples,
blotches, acne. itching feet, scaly
scalp, chafing of infants and similar
minor skin troubles it's action is all the
more pronounced, results being seen
after an overnight application. AS
only a small quantity of poslam is
necessary to cure such cases, a special
f1fty-cent package, usually sufficient,
has been placed on sale at the Rosser
Drug Co., 523 Kansas avenue, and 9TH
er leading drug stores in Topeka and
throughout the country.
