"My disease started with little PIN.

So I went to the doctor. I continued
his treatment for some time but, finding

some other remedy. Little warts began
to grow on my head. I would wash it
every day but it grew as raw as piece Of
beef and my hair commenced to fall out
in punches. So changed doctors. This
doctor prescribed wash and salve: My
head at this time was so sore could not
touch it. After trying several doctors
and many patent medicines, nothing
would cure it and lost much time from
work.
Several doctors were called in to look at
it, and after some consultation they said
that l had seborrhoea in its worst stage.
They began to treat it but it improved
very slowly. For over three years was

case the conference rules are adopt
ed it is likely the game will be played
as it is a good game for both schools.
In Lawrence it is believed that K
a. C. will adopt the rules If only in
order to keep the Kansas game. In
case the Manhattan game is not
dropped the Oklahoma game, Will
likely be taken off the schedule.
Oklahoma, Emporia and st. Marys
go to Lawrence, beaten before they
arrive. So long have these teams
been defeated by the Kansas players
that it is now only a question as to
how much the score will be.
Kennedy is now figuring on game
with Chicago next year. A game
with Chicago would, if a good show
ing was made. introduce Kansas into
the more select football circles of the
central part of the country. 1t is an
nounced, however, that in case the
game with Chicago should be signed
it must come at time when 1t would
not mean the sacrifice of the pros
poets of the team for the entire sea-
son.
In case the small college games
mentioned above are dropped an eff
fort will be made to schedule an
opening game with some Kansas
school, preferably Baker university.
There is more or less prospect of
Kansas getting a game with Colorado
university.

Three Persons Seriously Injured as
Result of Taflors, Strike.

&c William Balm. The injured were
William Balm, proprietor of the estab-
jlshment, Mrs. Jennie Balm. his wife,
and Helen Malinesky. nonunion

The trouble was caused by the
iring of nonunion men and women by
Balm Late in the afternoon a score
: men, said to be union sympathizers,
rushed into the place armed with
scissors and attacked the workmen.
Balm sought to interfere and was
struck in the face with a pair of scis-

THIEVES AT UNIVERSITY.
Valuable instruments Stolen From
Engineering School.

Lawrence, Kan. Dec. 3.-Unknown
parties have stolen from the depart
ment of engineering at the university
in the last few weeks several inStru-
ments and apparatus of much value.
The sheriff's office was notified of the
fact some time ago and has been
quietly working on the case since. The
nature of the stealing indicates that
the thief has an accurate knowledge
of the place from which the instru-
ments were taken. The officers think
they have a clue to the guilty parties.
E. E. Brown, purchasing agent of
the university, has ordered that an
invoice be taken of all the loose
property of the university The uni
versity does not have an accurate
statement of the value of all it's
apparatus. The invoice will be taken
for the purpose of preventing the
straying away of SO much apparatus
and to make some one responsible for
the property.

SOLD TO J. P. MORGAN.
Equitable Life Passes Into Control of
the Great Financier.

New York. Dec. 3.-Control of the
Equitable Life Insurance society
which was secured by Thomas F.
scandals of some years ago. has
passed to j. Pierpont Morgan with
the $472.000.000 of assets which the
company declared in it's last state
ment. The transfer apart from its
magnitude as a chapter in the history
of finance. marks a complete reversal
of the old order under which the in
surance companies controlled the
destinies of the banks and trust COM
panies.
News of the transfer was contained
in the following brief statement pub
lished from the offices of Morgan and
company:
"Mr. Morgan has bought the
majority Of the stock of the Equitable
| owned by Thomas Ryan. This pur-
chase is subject to the trust under
which Grover Cleveland. Morgan j.

benefit of policy holders and it
covers all Mr.. Ryan's interest in
Guiding all the stock purchased by
| him from James H. Hyde
Beyond these bare facts Mr.. Nor
gan and his partners declined to give
any details. The exact amount of
the stock bought by them and the
price paid remain for subsequent an
nouncement. Nor would they name
any other interests allied with them,
| in Wall street that at least one large
trust company may take hand in the
deal.
| Under the terms of the trust agree
ment referred to in Mr.. Morgan's an
nouncement the Ryan stock could not
be sold without the consent of the
surviving trustees, whose term of
power held until June Is next. and
who might continue the agreement
| for another five years, If they saw
| fit. Both of them are very busy
men and as they have served the
J assumed they would be willing to
pass on their responsibilities to other
Shoulders if they could do SO without
prejudice to the policy holders.
Neither Mr.. Westinghouse nor Mr..
O'Brien would discuss the sale.
| Mr.. Ryan's holdings in the
Equitable were bought in large part
from James H. Hyde, although Ed
ward H. Hartman had laid plans
which, as he supposed. were to as
sure him the control which went in
stead to Mr.. Ryan. 1t was during
surance case that Mr.. Hartman
when questioned on this point coined
what subsequently became a national
| byword. He was asked If he had set
tied scores with Mr.. Ryan and
public added with ready intuition.
| But SOON
At the offices of the Equitable
society, President Paul Morton pro-
| fessed ignorance of the transfer and
news of the change of control seemed
to come as a surprise to other Of
f1cers There is authority for the
statement however, that the transfer
met with their approval.
