RATED A MILLIONAIRE.
"Our Esteemed Contemporary
Ranked With Hartman.
The Kansas City Journal of today

The Kansas City Journal of today
says:
when Mr.. Capper took the
broken-down, worse-than-worthless
old Capital and by intelligent bust
ness management made it worth a
million dollars. he did precisely what
Hartman was in the habit of doing
with railroads.
MIR. Hartman in his active railroad
career secured more money for rail-
road improvement than any other man
in the business. He got the money, and
he spent it where the people wanted
it and in the way they wanted it.
He made himself obnoxious to
many of his competitors because he
fought so hard for his own plans and
for the properties in his charge. but
no one who knows will now deny that
he did railroad work as benef1cent as
it was herculean.
HE made money for himself, but
not nearly so much in proportion to
the work he did as Mr.. Capper has
made in rehabIitating the Capital.
when the probability of Harrin1an's
death scared the towards in the market
and the Hartman stocks went off
few points, the Capital shrieked with
joy at the disappearance of the specu-
lative values which the wicked man
Hartman had so shamefully created.
''Since Mr.. Harriman's death the Harri-
man stocks have recovered large part
of what they lost and they seem to be
advancing daily. We have looked in vain
to see how the Capital would reconcile this
fact with it's previous Statements

WANT TO co BACK
RED Slave Haskell Girls Long
fer Home.
Simply Ran Away From Has
k0ll Institution.

Habeas corpus proceedings have
teen brought in the United States dis
trict court of this city asking that the
three Indian girls from the Haskell
Institute who were supposed to have
been enticed to the Kansas City 'un-
oerworld" for immoral purposes be re-
leased from the Lawrence institution
and be sent back to their old homes in
Utah. The petition was fled with Dis
trict Clerk Fort Albaugh by R. B. Nc
Williams and Judge Clark of Law
renee, attorneys for the girls.
This action on the part of, the at
torneys for the girls is a severe blow
TO the story of ''red slave" traffic, sent
out from that city by some enterpris-
ing candidate for yellow journalism.
The story was sent out few weeks
egents were working the Haskell In
stitute for young girls to be taken to
oisorderlV resorts in the city OF
smoke" 1t was beautiful pipe dream
and aroused everybody from police to
federal officials.
From the action on the part of the
attorneys for the "enticed" girls, it
appears that the little Indians simply
wanted to get away from the slow and
back to their old home where the birds
sing as if they meant it and where
they can study nature with their faces
UpturneQ TO the clear blue sky ana not
under an electric light with the blurred
pages of white mans book staring
them in the face.
Want to Go Home.
The habeas corpus proceedings are
en- attempt to restore them to their
happy hunting grounds on earth and
to the breezy wigwam-from which
they made their exit many years ago
for the life of a student in sleepy Law
renee. The girls came from the Ute
reservation in Utah nine years ago, ac-
cording to the papers filed. 1t was
alleged at that time that they were
not receiving the proper treatment and
their parents asked that they be sent
to Haskell for three years.
But Rachel Burson, Blanche Bur-
son and Umeda Burson-the white
mans names for the Indian maids
have been in Haskell nine years try
sentences. Their parents did not
that long and they have all decided
that if there is any treatment to be
endured it is much better to endure it
back on the old reservation where the
grass grows without keep off, signs
and where the trees are never trim
med.
Now since the newspaper reporter
started the trouble, the officials of the
institution and the attorneys are pro-
longing it into scrap that will likely
reveal many more things before the
case is over. From the present out
look the blowup was a regular gold
mine of sensations and rich meat
stories.

RAILROADS APPEAL, TOO
Object to Strong Roads Carrying Pas

Kansas City Mo-. Sept. 1s.-Frank
Hagerman, representing is Missouri
railroads in the federal court here to-
day, filed q cross appeal to the United
states supreme court in the Missouri
passenger rates cases.
The cases grew out of the two cent
fare law of 1907. The federal district
court cnjoined the state from enforc-
ing the law, Judge Mcpherson holding
that the two cent fare was conf1scatory
and that e1z cents a mile would be re-
sponsibIe for some of the stronger
roads.
The railroads in their petition today
ask the Supreme court to decide that
a rate can not be enforced against a
strong road that is not enforced
against weak one. the railroads OBJ
ject to the courts finding that they
must pay half of the costs of the
Suits. TIE railroads recently appeal
ed from Judge McPherson's decision
and the case is now pending in the
higher court.

EASY FOOD
Ready For Instant Use Without
Cooking.

Almost everyone likes a cereal food
of some kind at breakfast and sup
per, but the ordinary way of cook
ing cereals results in a pasty mass
that is hard to digest, and if not prop
erly digested, the raw mass goes down
into the Intestinal tract where gas is
generated and trouble follows.
Everyone knows that good food
while poor food, or even food of good
quality that is poorly prepared
and not digested, is sure to bring on
some kind of disease.
The easiest food to digest in this
line is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat
and barley, and cooked thoroughly at
the factory, some IL to 16 hours be-
ing consumed in the different pro-
ceses of preparation. The food, there
fore, is ready for instant service and
of sugar, so that it is pre-digested and
ready for almost immediate absorp-
ton.
A Chicago young lady writes that
ton and dyspepsia from the use of
food that was not suitable to her
powers of digestion. She says
ST began using Grape-Nuts and I
confess to having had a prejudice at
first, and was repeatedly urged be-
fore I finally decided to try the food,
but / have not known what indiges-
ton is since using it, and have never
been stronger or in better health. I
have increased in weight from 100
to 124 pounds"
People can be well, practically with
out cost if they will adopt scientific
food and leave off the indigestible
sort.
There's a Reason"
Grape-Nuts food is crisp and deli
cious to the taste. It should be served
exactly as it comes from the package,
without cooking. except in cases where
it IS made up into buildings and other
desserts of delicious recipes,
