ALLEN IN GOTHAM.
Wichita Editor Makes Some
Startling Statements.
Says That Taft Couldn't Carry

FIND A NEW LINCOLN.

New York, Jan. 31.-The men who
attended the fifth annual banquet OF
the Kansas Society of New York Sat
urday night at the Plaza hotel have
been talking of the speech of Henry

and his message from the home
folks out in Kansas" Mr.. Allen said
he wanted it understood that Kansas
is live, thoughtful, conservative
state, and that the insurgent move
ment in congress, of which so much
is being written nowadays, had its
origin in Kansas.
Kansas he said, &c the greatest,
grandest, most productive spot on
broiling and sizzling against the re-
dictionaries in Washington.
Why" he said, Kansas is so
wholly insurgent that Taft couldn't
carry the smallest village in the state
if he was running for office tomor-
row. Oh, you needn't think that
Kansas is as fanatical as she used to
he. Not so. A few years ago, when
the farmers out in our state asked for
the establishment of a government
land bank to tide them over a rough
period, you New Workers laughed out
right, but when New York was SELL
ing what she didn't own and induced
Mr.. Cortelyou to advance so million
dollars of the governments money to
save New York's credit, nobody gave
Kansas the honor that belonged to
her of springing a fine new financial

Roosevelt Another Lincoln.
Gentlemen, Kansas is not incorrigi-

Roosevelt, who is, may say right here,
another Lincoln in the estimation of us
folks at home, and Kansas stood for
Taft because he promised to execute

learned in Kansas to have less faith.
"Mr. Taft promised. an honest re-
vision of the tariff downward. We did
not get it. Kansas is an intelligent
state, a blamed intellectual common
wealth. Kansans are studious, OBJ
serving people. They observed that the
promised revision was merely an effort

wanted something more strenuous

Kansas is for Theodore Roosevelt.

was for Judge Taft so long as Kansas
believed that he stood for the Roosevelt

DOUBLE THE PRODUCTION
Western Professor Sees Bright Future
for Farm Products.

Chicago, Jan. 31-A doubling of the
present production of farm staples is in
sight, according to Prof B. c. Buffum
of Worland, Wyo.. who is pioneer in
the science of seed breeding.
I'VE already have practically doubled
the yield of corn by selection and plant
breeding said Prof. Buffum yesterday,
''but we need not stop with corn, as we
can deal with all other crops in a SIM
liar way. The reason that this has not
been done earlier is that plant breed
ing has been utilized heretofore mainly
for the production of curiosities. Men
who brought out anything new were
wizards Few saw any practical value
in what was being done. Much was ac-
complished in an esthetic way with
reference to improvements of flowers,
but the great farm crops were neglect

Williamson w. Va, Jan. 31.-Three
bad men are somewhere in the noun

and diamonds worth $4,000, which
they took by force from C. c. Tester
man, a jeweler of Matteawan, while
he was returning from his shop to his
home early yesterday morning. The
men were masked when they waylaid
the jeweler, bound and gagged him,
and after relieving him of all that he
had, they escaped to the woods.
Bloodhounds were put on their trail,
but were una Die to track them on ac-
count of the heavy rainfall. Tester
man says he secured the diamonds re-

WANTED TO BE ARRESTED
Chicago Officers Charged With Neg

KANSAS CITY, MO.

Chicago. Jan. 31.-Dr. Emil G.
Hirsch told Sinai congregation that he
tried his best to be arrested last week.
Il wish the policeman had taken
me to the station and locked me up
DR.. Hirsch said. For one day, at
least then would have been able to
call the attention of the public to the
blindness of the officers of the law.
I'm the last week I called the atten-
ton of policemen to three persons who
disregarded the law against splitting.
When 1 said something to one of the
policemen about taking his number he
told me to mind my own business, as
he knew his. Later he threatened to
take me where he thought I would
not like to go if I did not mind my
own business 1 dared him to take me
to the station"
The narrative of this experience was
only incidental. DR.. Hirsch's subject
was 1.-THE Uncleaned Sidewalk" and he
delivered a sermon attacking the city
administration vigorously. He laid the
burden of blame, however, not on the
city officials, who were absent, but
upon the voters, who were present

Acid Dyspepsia
Nervous People Are Frequent Suffer-

Acid in the Stomach.
A Trial Package of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets Sent Free.

Tablets Sent Free.
"Sour stomach" or acid dyspepsia,
is a form of indigestion in which en-
t.rely too much hydrochloric acid is
secreted by the stomach. A sour taste
in the mouth is the most common
saliva, which is normally alkaline. is
found, when tested. to be changed to
acid or just the opposite of what it
should be. and in a state of the secre-
ton which causes rapid and extern
sive destruction of the teeth.
Everything eaten turns more or less
sour in the stomach. but sweets and
acid fruits are far worse in this re-
spect than other foods. If the eruc-
tation of liquids from the stomach oc-
ours, they have such an extremely sour
taste as to set the teeth on edge.
Hydrochloric acid is an important
constituent in the gastric juice. but
when too much of it is secreted it does
positive harm to the mucous lining of
the stomach: and when acid dyspepsia
is long continued it often sets up
chronic gastritis, gastric ulcer and
other serious diseases. The premature
loss of al the teeth has been caused
by acid saliva. which was dependent
upon the excessively acid condition of
the stomach.
STUARTS DYSPEPSIA TABLETS,
besides furnishing pure, aseptic pepsin
to the stomach to dilute the excess Of
hydrochloric acid. and to digest pro-
teids and albuminous foods very thor
oughly, also contain bismuth subni-
trate and calcium carbonate. which
are antagonistic to the acid, and there
fore neutralize the effect of the ex-
cessive amount of acid in the stomach,
and the continued use of these tab
lets will change the perverted condi-

state.

IGNORE GROUND HOG.
Pittsburgers Notified That He Has
Gone Wrong Three Years.

Pittsburg, Pa. Jan. 31.-The ground
hog has gone wrong for three successive
years in Pittsburg. and Henry Penny

district, warns the people here to ig-

of tradition and in 1908 when ground

Chicago, Jan. 31.-AIderman Den
mis- ]. Egan will present to the city
council tonight an ordinance prohibit
ing the cold storage men from keep
ing their supplies more than sixty
days. Egan declares that the cold
storage places are used to heap up
food stuffs and cause what seems to
be a scarcity of supply which raises
the prices abnormally. The alderman
said that he wanted such a thorough
and complete investigation that some
permanent good would come from the
inquiry.

High School Notes.

The third week of school gone
gone so quickly for most of the
pupils that we are dreading the
time when school closes again.
The lively class of seniors were
as usual the first to start some
thing. This year it was sur
prise to the under classmen when
they came walking up to school
one morning to see the beautiful
gold and white flag of 1911 float
ing proudly on the new flag pole.
The sophs and freshies vowed
they would take vengeance on the
seniors that very night but Prof.
Drake saved them from the dis
appointment that would surely
have been theirs by telling US in
chapel that the senior flag must
come down and no more class
flags go up. Of course the Sc
niors were disappointed by this
as they were rather anxious to
show the interfering sophs that
they weren't so very much after
all, but of course the seniors
were too dignified to show it be-
cause the flag pole cost the school
board $100. and putting the class
flag up might have damaged the
iron pole beyond repair.
One of the sophmores gave a
very valuable piece of informa-
tion to some of the high school
pupils this week, for she in
formed them that there was
something dead living around
here"
No laboratory work in chemis-
try has yet been done owing to
the fact that the new laboratory
is not quite ready.

lar, that they had him occupy the

could more easily watch his every
movement.

that they had better not bother
them while they are studying in
the recitation room because

W. C. 7. U. Notes

Beer is detrimental to athletic
success. 1t is reported that the
Arvada ball team won a keg of
beer from their opponents last
Sunday afternoon. The know
ledge must have brought a shock
to many a father and mother
and perhaps even to the average
citizen. What are we going to
do about it? Let us not be too
serious with the boys themselves.
A love of right was never engen-
dered by scolding. Every boy
must now feel that the standard
of the noble national game has
been trailed in the dust.
In nearly all of the standard
instruction books a warning is
published against the use of any
Intoxicating drink. Many a star
of the diamond has fallen be-
cause he could not control his ap-
petite. Our college base ball and
foot ball teams perform wonder
full feats of endurance using no
thing stronger than oatmeal
water.
Our citizens should know the
law in regard to the border land

to its execution. Uncle Sans
most valuable resources are the
