TRADE BODY FOR TREATY
New York Exchange Endorses Project
for Canadian Reciprocity.

New York, Feb. 9.-The New York
board of trade has given the Canadian
reciprocity agreement it's endorsement
by a unanimous vote. The resolution
adopted by the board is as follows:
Resolved, That the New York board
of trade and transportation most cor
daily approves the proposition for the
negotiation of a treaty between the
Dominion of Canada, and the United
States to promote reciprocal trade re-
lations between these two countries,
and respectfully petitions the United
States senate to approve such treaty
and the congress to enact such legls-
Iation as will promote reciprocal trade
relations"
Accompanying the announcement OF
the boards action was the following
statement by William Gibson, vice
president of the organizations:
I'VE already have very large trade
with Canada. 1t amounts to more than
5000. O00. 900 a year and we believe 10
bring about an increase in that trade
concessions on both sides are worth
while.
LAS far as this country is concerned
in the matter of grain. so long as we
are exporting a surplus it seems that
the price is decided upon in foreign
markets and we cannot be harmed
In the matter of the free importation
of wood pulp, our laborers and manu-
ia ,turers would be benefited. while we
believe that with the present high prices
of lumber free lumber from Canada
will not be detrimental to the interests
of the country at large. Generally
speaking the proposals made seem u
be very satisfactory.

PROTECT A HIGHWAYMAN
Eight Patrolmen Save Him From Vio-
Ience at Hands of Coal Dealer.

New York, Feb. Slight patrolmen
were required to protect a wouII-be
highwayman from violence at the
hands of the man whom he had at
tempted to hold up and rob at Jamaica
L. l., late last night. Lawrence LAWN,
a coal dealer, was the man who turned
the tables on the highwayman. He
was entering his home when he was
felled by a blow on the back of the
head. He was unconscious for a mo-
mept and when he came to his senses
saw a burly man bending over him.
II had only few dollars III my pock-
cts" he explained later, "but 1 sud-
denly decided that I'd have to be beaten
to a fragile before I would give it up"
He wrestled and fought with his as
sailant for a minute or two, then sud-
denly regained mis- feet and slugged
out with all his force in a right arm
hlow to the fellows face. The high
wayman turned and ran with LAWN in
close pursuit. For five blocks he kept
up the chase
Then the highwayman saw an open
door and lodged into it. 1t was the
jamaica police station. He ran into
the arms of six foot lieutenant. Get
your gun quick he urged 10 the blue
coat. They're after me- Get your gun,
you'll need it,
Then came LAWN, in a frenzy of in
dignatiun He started for his assaiI-
ant. The policeman interposed but che
attack was ITO strenuous for him and
he pulled out his whistle, calling seven
more officers from an inner room. The
services of all of them were required
10 restrain Lawn FROM wrsaking venge-
ance on his quarry.

vote on national tickets, this right ex-
tends also to state and all other candi-
dates.
The attempt to make a point of the
fact that the veterans are not taxpayers
should receive little consideration. The
pension payments at the Soldiers Home
amount to nearly half a million dollars
a year and most of this is expended IN
LestvenWorth and in Kansas. The large
amount of money required In addition
to maintain the Soldiers Home is neatly
all spent for Kansas products.
Under the laws of Kansas man car
come to this state from, any foreign
country and after stopping here six
months can participate in our elections
by simply making d declaration Of cit
izenship, regardless of whether he owns
property or pays taxes or whether ne
even speaks our language. 1t woula
seem to be only fair that the veterans
who offered their lives to save The I'm
ion and have lived in this country ever
since should have the right to vote
also.

SUBWAY PAYS OUT.
Total Cost Is Returned by the Public
in Six Years.

New York, Feb. 9.-Figures made
public by the public service commits
sion show conclusively that subway
operation in this city is a veritable
gold mine. It is shown that in the six
years the subway has been open the
travelling public has paid the entire
cost of construction in nickels and
100000 additional
The table prepared by the commits
sion shows the ticket sale at all the
stations in the city for each year be-
tween Oct. 70. 1904. when the subway
opened, and Dec. 81 last. The total
number of fares paid in that period
vas 1,212,771,225. This means that
the public paid $60,6Ss.000 in fares.
The total construction cost of the sub
way to date is less than $53,000,00O
so that the subway may be said to
have paid for itself within six years,
though, of course, the figures make no
allowance for operating expenses.
1t is shown in the table that the
traffic in the subway has grown from
116, 2O9,313 passengers in 1905, the
first full year of operation, to 27O,-
321, 490 passengers in 1910.

Do You Enjoy Your Meals?
One of the Most Important Questions
to Consider in the Search for
Happiness and Health.

The burning question to you is,
Are you getting out of life all the
pleasure and the health you are en-
titled top If not, why not?
No matter whether every organ and
member of your body is in a sound
state of health and strength. if your
stomach is in any way disordered, you
are not goi-,g to be yourself You
nervous or sullen individual, whose ac-
tons will reflect your condition inside,
and people will naturally avoid you.
The world wants to smile and be
cheerful, and unless you are cheerful
and smile, at least, occasionally, you
will have few friends, fewer oppor-
tunities, no success, and you will go
down in defeat-d efeated by dyspep-
STA and a bad stomach.
A good and thorough digestion has
a quick, wonderful reaction upon the
brain. You must have noticed it many
times, for the brain and stomach are
as intimately connected as needle
and its thread, one can hardly be used
to advantage without the other. If
your stomach is slow and lazy in di-
costing your food, it will produce at
once slow, lazy and cloudy influence
upon your brain. Mark it! If your
stomach has absolutely quit work, and
fermentation is poisoning your vitalS
as a result surely your brain is going
| to be sluggish and correspondence de-
But why continue to suffer all the
miseries and torments that disor-
dered stomach brings you?
If your stomach can not digest your
| food, what will 4? Where's the relief?
! Where's the cure?
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
relief and the cure. Why? Because,
as all stomach troubles arise from in
digestion and because one ingredient
| of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is able
/ 70 81 ST
5000 grains of any kind of food,
doesn't it stand to reason that these
little Dyspepsia Tablets are going to
digest all the food and whatever food
you put into your stomach? Science
nowadays can digest food without hav-
| ing to use the stomach for it. And
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the re-
! suit of this scientific discovery They
digest and digest thoroughly and well,
anything and everything You eat.
| So, if your stomach refuses to work
or can't work, and you suffer from
teructations, bloat, brash. fermentation,
biliousness sour stomach, heartburn,
irritation, indigestion, or dyspepsia of
whatever form just take one or two
of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and see
the difference It doesn't cost you
much to prove it. Then you can eat
all you want what you want, when
ever you want. if you use these tab

CALM UNDER FIRE.
Equipment Company Directors
Do Not Fear Charges.
Stakeholder LaughIin Called a
Chronic Trouble Maker.
ACTION, GOLD STORY"
Old Officers Reelected at Meet
ing in Chicago.
Charles S. Gleed, of Topeka, a
Member of the Board.

Chicago, Feb. 9-The fact that a.
suit charging misrepresentation of
$463,500 of The funds of the Chicago
Railway Equipment company was
timed to appear in court simultane-
ously with the calling to order of the
annual meeting of the corporation
failed to cast shadow over the gath
ering or over the festivities that fol-
lowed
The author of the charges, Henry D.
Eaughl1n, was characterized as a
chronic trouble maker and officials
of the corporation said that the suit
he filed in September, 1909, involved
almost identically the same charges
Mr.. Laughlin was said to own but five
shares of the $2,5OO,000 corporation.
Charges in Bill.
The suit names as defendants Albert
William A. Pungs. Robert E. Plumb
and John P. Ahrens, all directors or
former directors of the corporation
They are charged with negligence and
carelessness in the performance of
their duties.
One specific charge that appeared to
assume serious proportions in the mind
OF the complainant, was th4 fact that
they had elected Edward B. Leigh as
treasurer
Treasurer Leigh, according to the
complaining stakeholder, is the one
cause of the many difficulties that are
supposed to have involved the finan-
cial affairs of the corporation. The
bill describes him as unfit, incapable
and untrustworthy."
Says Cash Is Misused.
1t is charged that he frequently alb
stracted large sums of money from
the funds of the company and appro-
priated them to his own uses or to
the uses of his brother-in- Law, Dwight
Furness.
These sums of money. the bill re-
cites, amounted to $463.5OO between
the time Treasurer Leigh assumed the
obligations of his office in 1895 and the
date of the filing of the bill.
The complaints thus set forth, how
ever, did not appear to disturb the
stockholders who took rart in the an
nual meeting held in the company's
offices in the afternoon.
Old Directors Reelected.
They reelected all of the directors,
as follows: Hanford Crawford. Frank
P. Hays, Albert Blair, Charles S.
Gleed, w. S. Oppenheim, John P.
Ahrens and E. B. Leigh
Mr.. Leigh, however, is acting as
president of the company. having been
promoted since the supposed offenses
described in the bill of complaint
OF the $2,5OO,00O of capital stock
800 was represented at the
meeting by 558 shareholders.

REID IS ROBBED.
American Ambassador Loses Lot of
Valuable Jewelry.

San Francisco, Feb. 9.-Whitelaw
Reid, American ambassador to Great
Britain, who is spending a vacation at
the estate of his late father-in-law
D. o. Mills, near here, was robbed of
valuable jewelry Tuesday night.
Footprints in the garden and
through the house indicate that the
robber climbed to the second floor by
a back window and made his way to a
bedroom recently occupied by Mrs.
Reid. He seemed to be familiar with
the household arrangements. Find
ing Mrs. Reid's room empty, he went
to the ambassadors sleeping apart
ments. and was rewarded with much
valuable loot, including a Swiss watch
worth $500, eleven stickpins most of
them set with rubies and pearls, and
a pair of gold cuff buttons. The raid
was evidently hurried, for jewelry of
greater value was left.

FIXING OLD ADOBE
Now Home of Mrs. Belle Daily
HardisOn, Former Kansan.
Historic California Structure Is
Not Falling to Decay.
TREATY SIGNED THERE
Where Fremont and PicO Had
Their Conference.
1t Has Been Occupied by Many
Well Known Persons.
TREATY SIGNED THERE

Los Angeles, Cal, Feb. 9.-Contrary
to newspaper reports, the old adobe
house in South Pasadena, the scene OF
many historic affairs and the home of
Mrs. Mary Belle Daily-Hardison. wild
Ow of W. L. Hardison, is in an excel
lent state of preservation. Recent ar
ticles in papers outside of Los Angeles
nave stated that it was falling into de-
cay.
When it passed into the possession
of Mr. Hardison he expended large
sums of money in repairs, even finding
1t necessary to construct a new wall
on the west side, the bricks of the old
one having been carried away SIS
souvenirs by tourists.
The house stands in the midst of
beautiful grounds, which comprise
Zine acres. and are full of old mission
and Castilian roses and contain one
old pepper tree planted by the Span
iards many years ago.
Incidents in California history IN
connection with the old adobe, which
is said to have been built in 1870, are
we'll described ir the memoirs OF
Major H. N. Rust.
It was in that house that Gen. John
C. Fremont met Gen. Andres Pico to
sign a treaty by which California was
obtained for the United States. 1t was
once the residence of Gen. George
Stoneman, one of the early governors
under American rule. 1t later passed
to the possession of Steven C. Fos-
ter, the first mayor and judge of Los
Angeles. 1t served as the residence
and studio Of Mrs. Carrie M. Gilbert,
a painter of Indians. A daughter Of
E. Scrabble, an East Indian prince,
was born there.
other historic incidents could be
recalled, among them being that near
the house is a cross which marks the
spot where, in 1870, Governor Portola
smoked the pipe of peace with the
old Indian chief, Hahamovic.
When the place was repaired under
the direction of Mr.. Hardison many
antiques. such as barbecue forks,
crosses and shrines. were unearthed,
Three of the latter now adorn the hall
and what is known as the blue bed
room, and are found most quaint and
interesting.
The house now is said to be in such
an excellent condition that it is likely
to remain an object of interest for
years to come.
1.-THE old adobe is now owned by
Mrs. Mary Belle Daily Hardison, who
was born and reared in Salina, Kan.
She is the widow of W. L. Hardison,
formerly Salina banker.

professor Of physics in the Univer-
sity of Bonn, GERMANY who is in this
country for a series of lectures before

erer believes, will supersede coal as
the source of the worlds energy and

Some men of great imaginative
power says DR.. Bucherer, have de-

of its sources of heat and energy, the

in radium scientists have found an
energy which surpasses by more than
a million times anything that can be
supplied by the combustion of any
known fuel. The unlocking of this
energy is only question of time.
Scientists all over the world are
devoting their efforts to solve the
problems presented and one of these
days they will be successful. There
is no doubt that the world has learned
more about physics and chemistry in
the nine years since radium was dis
