V I s?- 10 CENTS A WEEK. KANSAS AGAIN. McKinley Once More Sets Foot in Our State. A"State Journal"Reporter First to Greet Him. Gets On the Train Two Miles East of the Depot THE GOVERNOR TALKS But Refuses to be Interviewed on Politics. Fixed Determination Entire Trip on His TO AVOID ISSUES. Description of the Trip to Ottawa. A. Big Day at the Chautauqua at Ottawa. Governor William McKinley of Ohio is the honored guest of Kansas today at the Ottawa Chautauqua assembly. A State Journal reporter was the first Kansan to meat Governor McKinley and his party on their way into the Sun flower state. At 6:38 o'clock last evening a Journal reporter boarded Governor McKinley's private car which was attached to the regular west bound train from Chicago. The Journal reporter got on the train at the Fifteenth s'reet station of the Santa Fe, a twenty minute run east of the Kansas City Union depot, and was warmly welcomed by Ohio's governor. Governor McKinley's party consists of just six persons: Governor and Mrs. McKinley, Captain Henry O. S. Ueistand, of the Eleventh regiment, U. S. infantry, and Mrs. Ueistand, Mr. Joseph Smith, Btato librarian of Ohio, and Mr. William Penn Nixon of the Chicago Inter-Ocean. Mr. William Penn Nixon of the Inter Ocean joined the Mckinley party at Chicago and is acting as a sort of a body guard to keep the western newspaper men away from the presidential candi date on this western tour. When the Journal reporter entered Governor McKinley's car he was met bv Mr. Nixon who said: "Governor Mc Kinley will be ever so glad to meet you and shake hands with you. but he posi tively refuses to be interviewed." Just at this juncture Governor McKin ley came in sight on his way from the observatory to his apartment. "Here, governor, is a newspaper man who wants to see you," called Mr. Nixon and Governor McKinley came forward smiliugly and with outstretched hand greeted the reporter. "How do you do? I am glad to see you." and he shook the reporter's hand with a presidential candidacy grip. You were with us on my last trip through Kansas, were you not?" "Not on the trip," replied the Jour nal young man, ''but if you remember I met you t Topeka." "Yes, it was at Topeka. That was a great meeting, wasn't it? That was a reg ular hurrah trip." Mr. Nixon here exercised his guar dianship by saying, "I told the young man governor that you were not being interviewed." The governor continued to talk to the reporter, however. "Governor, what are you going to talk about at Ottawa?" asked the reportar. "Patriotism," was the quick response. "Governor McKinley can't talk about anything else and as you know this is to be a soldiers meeting. So he can't talk anything but patriotism," put in Mr. Nixon. "That's right," said Mr. McKinlev, "Patriotism is my only subject, I can't talk anything else. Now 1 don't want to be interviewed." The Journal young man here pro duced a copy of an afternoon paper with the latest Associated Press dispatches from Cleveland. He had marked the paragraph which was read with interest by so many State Journal subscribers yesterday afternoon- and Governor McKinley again smiled all over as he read the following lines in the report of the National Republican League meet ing: "In his address of welcome President D. D. Woodmausee, of the Ohio league, expressed regret that Governor McKin ley was prevented by his Kansas engage ment from welcoming the delegates to Ohio. The reference to McKinley caused a loud and continuous demonstration. He desired to say, however, that Gover nor McKinley would reach the city Fri day evening, and at the Hollenden would be glad to greet all and say farewell to all." He read it over carefully, and then glancing at the headlines, said: "They hvve not got down to business yet, have they?" By this time the train had reached Grand Avenue station, and here Mayor Webster Davis of Kansas City and a party of prominent citizens got aboard and shook hands with the distinguished guest and his friends who were aboard. Before the handshaking was over the train was backed into the Kansas City Lnion depot. Here ex-Governor George l.Anthony and Department Commander J. P. Harris of the G. A. R met the partr. Governor McKinley went to the pla't form and extended his hand to Governor Anthony, assisting him to reach the plat form. The stop at Kansas City was less than five minutes. Just long enough for Governor McKinley's private car to be witched off from the regular train and NIGHT EDITION. .PEK attached to a special engine which was to pull it to Ottawa. While the train was standing at the Union depot a Kansas Citx man intro duced Mr. William Penn Nixon, of tne Inter Ocean, to ex-Governor Anthony. "Yes," said Mr. Nixon, "I know the Newspaper Anthony very well." "Oh, aha, aha, hum," was the only re sponse the ex-governor made as he turned hia attention to Governor Mc Kinley. Mr. Nixon almost fainted when a newspaper man whispered in his ear, "The Anthonys are cousins but they are deadly enemies, and they don't speak as they pass by." Mr. Nixon uttered something, which sounded like "sheol." When Governor McKinley's special train pulled out of the Kansas City union EON. WK. KcSINLEY, depot a few minutes after 7 o'clock there were on board besides his immediate party ex-Governor George T. Anthony, Department Commander J. P. Harris, Mr. J. L. Bristow, Governor Morriil'a private secretary, Mr. F. L. Vandegrift of the Kansas City Star, Mr. Percy Ellis of the Kansas City World and the repre sentative of the State Journal. The car occupied by the distinguished party was Santa Fe special car No. 217, which is kept for just such occasions. The train was in charge of Conductor J. M. Woodward, formerly of Topeka, but who now lives at Argentine, and the special was pulled by engine No. 814, with Engineer "Sandv" Gear at the throt tle. As soon as the train pulled out of Kan sas City Governor McKinley and the members of his party excused them selves and returned to the dining room where they remained for over an hour. When the Journal man boarded the McKinley train the governor of Ohio was dressed in a suit of dark grey clothes, wore a light crushed hat, cloth top laced patent leather shoes. His shirt was fastened in the middle of the bosom with a large gold button, and he wore a red mixed made-up tie. Speaking of his health he said: "I never felt better in my life, and this has, altogether, been a most delightful trip." After supper Governor McKinley ap peared dressed in black, wearing a satin faced Prince Albert coat. He lighted a cigar aD(l took aseatnear Governor Anthony and Commander Har ris, with whom he chatted about the weather and his last summer's trip through Kansas all the way to Ottawa. He did not once allow a political subject to be brought up although the news paper men tried their best to head the conversation in that direction. When the McKinley special stopped at the Santa Fe depot at Ottawa, at exactly 9 o'clock, Mayor G. G. Wharton, Mr. H. J. Smith, and several other prominent citizens of Ottawa entered the car and extended a welcome to their guest and his friends. Mrs. McKinley and Mrs. Ueistand here again made their ap pearance. Congressman Charles Curtis also en tered the car here aed was warmly re ceived by Governor McKinley, with whom he became acquainted at the Min neapolis convention. With Congressman Curtis was Mr. John S. Long of Yates Center, who used to go to school with Governor McKinley at Po land, Ohio, when they were boys. "Why, how are you, John?" was the way Governor McKinley welcomed his old schoolmate. The McKinley car was then run across the river to a point near the Centennial hotel, where it was put on a siding for the night. Arrangements had been made for the members of the party to stay at private houses in the city, but they preferred to stay in their car, and that plan was ad hered to. When told about the old soldier militia company from Kansas City, Kansas, which had to get a permit from Gover nor Stone to pass through Missouri en route to Ottawa, Governor McKinley said: "In Massachusetts they have a consti tutional provision which prohibits any armed force from out side the state to enter the border of the com monwealth and it is out of the power of the governor to make exception by proc lamation. This law applies to armed societies of all kinds." It was suggested that this would then apply to the Knights Templar, who are to meet in Boston in August. "Yes," said Governor McKinley, "It might apply to them, they have swords but they can't use them." When the train arrived at Ottawa, Miss Mary McCabe, who ia reporting the A, KANSAS, THURSDAY EVENING, JUNE 20, assembly for the Kansas City Times.' boarded the private car and requested the much asked for but always denied interview, which she said she must have. "No I can't be interviewed," replied McKinley once more. "Well I will print a part of the Mc Kinley bill and call that an interview, if I can't get anything else," suggested Mies McCabe. "That will do, that will do'" and Mr. McKinley said he thought the sugges tion was the best yet offered, and added: "I will not deny any part of it if you credit it to me." Mrs. McKinley who accompanies the governor on this trip is a most motherly looking woman. She has been an inva lid for many years, and although there is not much color in her cheeks her eyes are bright and attractive. Mrs. McKin In Ottawa Today. ley was dressed in a suit of navy blue summer silk, with a mixed red and old gold stripe. She wore diamond earrings, a handsome gold breastpin and on her right hand were several rings set with large and brilliant diamonds. Mra, McKinley walks with difficulty, supporting herself with a large gold headed ebony cane. She said she had stood the trip from Columbus to Ottawa much belter than she had expected, bat was ready and anxious to retire when the last members of the local reception committee left the private car last night. Some of the over zealous Ottawa ad mirers of the governor wanted him to take a carriage and drive through the as sembly grounds last night, but at the suggestion of Ex-Governor Anthony and at the urgent request of Mrs. McKinley he decided to remain in his car and rest up for today's work. Immediately after hia speech thia afternoon Governor McKinley was es corted to hia car,, which was attached to the regular Chicago train leaving. Ot tawa at 3:10 p. m. The McKinley party will go to Chicago over the Santa Fe, and from there to Cleveland via the Lake Shore. They will arrive in Cleveland at 1:30 o'clock tomor row evening, in time for Governor Mc Kinley to deliver an address at the big banquet, which is to close the convention of the National Republican league. GREAT DEMONSTRATION AT OTTAWA Gov. Morrill Introduces Got. McKIuley and Tiny Make an A.TV-ctingSceue. Kansas City. June 20. A special to the Star from Ottawa, Kan., says: Today dawned bright and clear for grand army exercises in Chautauqua assembly park. People were early astir. Men, women and children we're in holiday at tire, and business houses, dwellings and lawns were gay with flars and national colors in honor of Gov. McKinley of Ohio. During the forenoon bands played in the park or on the streets and detach ments of old soldiea and militia marched about town. Carriages and wagons load ed with country people began to arrive before many towspeople had their break fasts. The first excursion train arrived at 10 o'clock, brins'mg over 600 people, and before 11 o'clock ten had ar rived with an aggregate of 6,000 strangers. Later seven more ar- rived and it is estimated that fully ten thousand people witnessed the exercises besides those who live here and those who have tents on Chautauqaa grounds. The exercises in the park conducted by Rev. D. C. Milner, president of the assembly, began at 9 o'clock with a con cert by the Soldiers Home band and the assembly chorus, led by Prof. Case. At 10 o'clock Attorney General F. B. Dawes addressed an audience of 8,000 people who packed the tabernacle. While Mr. Dawes was speaking Gov. McKinley appeared on the platform and a few minutes later Gov. Morrill arrived. Here the G. A. R day began, and ex-Gov. George T. Anthony, as president of the day, took charge of the exercises which began with sunga by the Modoc club. Gov. Morrill then formally welcomed Gov. McKinley. He said that on behalf of the G. A. R. of Kansas he welcomed Ohio's governor, and in doing so his breast swelled with pride, for Kansas had Bent to war more soldiers in proportion to the population than any other state. He welcomed Mc Kinley as governor of Ohio, as a distin guished citizen, and last and best, as a true-hearted comrade who had marched side by side with heroes who had fought to preserve the Union. As he said this Governor McKinley arose and the two men grasped handi while the multitude cheered and waved L Continued on Third Page. EVASION JSTHE PLftfl. Republican League is Trying to Dodge Silver. Want it Deferred Till Republi can National Convention. MAKE A STRONG FIGHT. The Friends of Silver Demand Its' Recognition. Unit Rule Makes Their Efforts Almost Hopeless. Cleveland, O., June 20. The second day's session of the national convention of Republican clubs opened wilh every prospect of harmony, notwithstanding the contest for three days between those wearing the yellow and the white badges. The only differences were on the silver resolution. On the tariff and every other question the delegates were united in standing by the antecedents of the parly. The boom for Gen. McAlpin for presi dent seemed to be so general that there was no scramble even for the offices. The point was then made in the early hours of the morning that it would be good politics to avoid collision on the only poiut in dispute. This was impossible with the usual declaration of principles by resolu tions, because no one could draw a reso lution that would satisfy both the east ern and western delegates. It was proposed to go further than Thurston's resolution and adopt only on address that would set forth that the league is an auxiliary and not a primary organization and therefore it would be best to await the action of the Republi can national convention in 1896 and not to anticipate it All efforts among the leaders and dele gates as well as among the committee men were today directed toward thia plan with a view to preventing such a light in convention as there was in the committee on reso lutions last night. It was expected that the silver men would show their strength in running Col. Trombo for president and again in pressing a minority report on silver, but these two interesting numbers on the programme were both declared oft on a draw today. The silver question however continued to absorb all others as if has done all week. On this question the states had in their previous delegation meet ings decided to act as a unit and the silver men realized that their scattering minorities were throttled. They also charged that the organization of the convention, especially iu the committee on resolutions, was against them, and that there was a dis position to railroad the old Minneapolis platform through without giving them a fair hearing. For three days the yellow and white badges, representing the two factions, had been fluttering from contending breasts. Today there was expected to be a showing of hands from the start. As most of the members of the committee on resolutions have been previously instructed by their respective delegations, it was necessary for them to confer with their colleagues today on the proposed address, and this revived the agitation by states. These confer ences also delayed the assembling of the convention, which was to have been to gether at 10 o'clock, and was delayed over an hour. The Pennsylvania delegates today de cided to cast the united vote of their delegation for Gen. McAlpin of New York for the presidency. The Tennessee delegation met before the convention and decided that the new south had not been as prominently brought to the front be fore the convention as other sections. A resolution was adopted requesting ex-Congressman Moore to prepare an ad dress to the Republican party of the United States, to be delivered to the canvention, setting forth the claims of the south to a closer recognition by the party. General McAlpin, the prospective pres ident, was relieved before daybreak of his gold watch, diamond and money. Among those accorded an ovation on entering the hall today was General Asa Bushnell, the Republican candidate for governor of Ohio, who sat a3 one of the Ohio delegates. When President Tracey called the con vention to order at 11 a. m.,the first thing done was the appointment of Senator elect Thurston of Nebraska, H. Clay Evans of Tennessee, ex-Governor Prince of New Mexico, Messrs. Goodnow of Minnesota and Buch of Georgia to wait on ex-Senator Warner Miller of New York and invite him to address the con vention. While these gentlemen retired to es cort Mr. Miller to the hall the committee on credentials reported in favor of seat ing both delegations from South Caro lina. This was adopted. On the report of the committee, the rules of the Reed house and the Denver convention were adopted. Hon. Warner Miller then addressed the convention. Mr. Miller argued forci bly against the tariff being taken out of polities. He held that the conditions were such as to prevent if not render it impossible. Any party whose policy did not raise sufficient revenue and created deficiencies was a failure. The Republicans were not for a tariff for revenue only, but for a tariff for a surplus also. His argument for the Mon roe doctrine and the American flag on Hawaiian soil was vigorous. As neither Depew, McK:nley nor any other candi dates for the presidency were present, he was reluctant to discuss any contested issues, but he argued at length for sound money and such a reorganization of the banking system as will extend the circu lation medium without dependence on government bonds for the issues of bank notes. Ha hoped the party would stand by its record for bi-metallism on a parity. He had the fullest confidence ia other nations soon con 1S93. senting, through an international com mission, to the restoration of silver to its old place as a standard money and be lieved that it would be impossible to bring euch a result without the co operation of other countries. Mr. Miller appeared with a brilliant McKinley badge on his lapel and in re ferring to the absence of those who were expected to be here to sound key notes, he said, be would wear that badge till he reached the New York state line on his return, and there he would be for the Empire state favorite. A rising vote of thanks was given ex Senator Miller. Gen. Sampson, of Arkansas, moved to amend the rules so that the electioa of secretary be referred to the executive committea As that was regarded as a move to defeat J. F. Byrnes, the silver candidate from Denver, it created such a stir that the motion was withdrawn, but notice was given that it would be re? newed. As the committee on resolutions was not ready to report an opportunity was given all to offer resolutions which were referred without debate. Resolutions poured in upon the Cuban insurgents, Hawaiian republic, the Armenians and all other foreign subjects. Biackwell of Massachusetts offered a resolution favoring the right of women to vote at all elections and congratulating the women of Colorado and Wyoming upon their possession of the elective franchise. Mr. Biackwell also offered a resolution arraigning the administration for its Turkish policy. Mr. 0Driscoll of Maryland offered a resolution which, he said, would change the Democratic states. It provides for a protective tariff, reciprocity, honest elec tions, gold, silver and paper on a parity and an aggressive foreign policy. Frank Greer of Oklahoma offered the following: First We demand the free and unlim ited coinage of the American silver pro duct with a prohibitive tariff on the foreign product, modified by financial re ciprocity laws. Second We are opposed to the single gold standard inaugurated by Grover Cleveland and the democratic party at the dictates of England. We believe in the absolute bimetallism the mone tary system established and main tained by the Republican party gold, silver and paper circulating upon a parity one dollar the equal in all pur chasing and debt paying function with every other dollar. Third We believe in a tonnage tax, in addition to the regular protective tar iffs on all goods entering our ports in foreign vessels, that the American flag on an American marine may command supremacy upon the seas, which was dis placed by the blighting monopoly by England of the world's ocean carrying trade. W. T. Scharltz of New York, offered a strong gold standard resolution. B. LCarr of Colorado, offered the resolution of tho silver men that was given in these dis patches yesterday. Mr. Gould of Mas sachusetts, offered a sound money resolution. It opposed the free and unlimited coinage of silver in very strong terms. The silver men and the anti-silver men continued for some time alternating in offering resolutions that did not materially differ from those that had been previously piled up on the secretary's table by the representatives of the respective factions. Mr. Knowles of Delaware, broke the monotony by offering a resolution for one presidential term of six years. Then, in order to shut off the flood and fuss, a motion was made that the rule for the reading of the resolutions be rescinded. Thia brought out a debate pa the gag rule. Ex-Governor Prince, Senator-elect Thurston and others opposed shutting off the reading. A debate followed in which neither speakers nor the chair could recognize each other. Chairman Robinson, from the commit tee on resolutions, came to the hall and reported that the committee had workod all night and again today, and had hoped to be able to re port tomorrow morning, but if all these resolutions were considered, the committee could not report before next week. The motion to rescind the rule for the reading of resolutions in the convention was lost. This afternoon the sub-committee on resolutions is not so near a settlement as appeared after sunrise. The committee on revision did not settle on any ex pression on the silver question, and this sub committee is progressing slowly. The silver men feel that they made a point on the convention today in postponing action on the propo sition to refer the selection of secretary to the executive committee. Since the recess was taken from 1 to 2 o'clock the Pennsylvania delegation voted solidly to insist on the secretary being elected by the convention instead of referring the selection to the execu tive committee. Then the Bilver men got other delega tions together to follow suit on the score of fair play. It claimed that this move ment is in favor of Byrnes of Colo rado for secretary, and some fear that he will thus have the opportunities for the free and unlimited circulation of silver literature. This is sue will likely be forced on the conven tion this evening before the adjournment for the banquet. Several attempts were made today to poll the delegates on presidential prefer ence, but they were not inclined to com mit themselves, and the only thing they seem interested in is the declaration on finances. The convention today of the Woman's National league was simply a love feast presided over by Mrs. Foster, with numerous speeches by the lady dele gates. The organization of an Ohio league, like the leagues of women in New York and the western states, was postponed until tomorrow. C. P. SSt.L.toB? Sold for S4.20O.O0O St. Lours, June 20.

THE FACTS RELATED By Rev. Edwin M. Randall Who is Pastor Of the LeadingMethodist Church at Leavenworth. MR. II AND ALL'S LETTER Written to the Daily "State Jonrnal" Giving Statements and Some Strong Illustrations. Temperate Letter That Doesn't Flinch From the Truth. The State Journal is in receipt of a communication from Rev. Edwin M. Ran dall, pastor of the First Methodist church in Leavenworth, which contains some in teresting facts for people who do not un derstand the situation at Leavenworth. Mr. Randall says: To the Editor of the Statk Journal: On account of an extended absence from home my attention was only recent ly called to the interview of Governor Morrill in the Kansas City Journal of May 2G. The governor therein passes some strictures upon his critics which merit attention. That a breach should occur between the governor and the tem perance people is most unfortunate. Surely every patriotic citizen must hope that it may prove only a misunderstand ing; and that, if it should so prove, each shall have magnanimity to co-operate without resentment with the other. It is now apparent that only a thorough, can did, dispassionate discussion can bring about such an agreement. In the interview Governor Morrill complains of the perversion of his views; that those who complain of him, includ ing the moralists of Atchison, Leaven worth and Wichita, have not sought him out with ''either complaint, counsel or request;" he declares himself in favor of the enforcement of the prohibitory law and "ready to lend the full power of the state of Kansas to the enforcement of that and every other law," and refers in proof of this "to his appointment of com missioners for Kansas City, Topeka and Fort Scott; yet he declares that "the community in which liquor is sold is alone responsible." In Leavenworth, there has beena but one period of attempted enforcement and then the light was not to a finish, but was abandoned in the heat of battle. Yet the law has been enforced here immeasura bly better thau now. The temperance people condemn hia appointments as po lice commissioners in Atchison, Leaven worth and Wichita of men known to oppose the enforcement of prohibition. The purpose of their appointment should primarily be to enforce the law and the strength of their endorsement in these cities might be a sufficient reason for not appointing them. In Leaven worth, at least, Governor Morrill is thor oughly familiar with the city and its cit izens and could not possibly have made an unintentional mistake in appointing men of known drinking habits and per sonal opposition to enforcement. Governor Morrill's excuse that the people are responsible, is not new. We have had officers of all grades who have utterly failed to enforce prohibition. This excuse has been their universal cry. As the recourse of every corrupt or im becile officer, it has acquired an unfor tunate flavor. The temperance people have had ex periences with these officers, who gave outward support with secret betrayal that reminded one of the death of Uriah. It is unpleasant to close a hard fight in this way. They have grown distrustful about entering a contest, depending upon an officer whose conduct indicates lack of moral courage or sympathy with the cause. In the eyes of many, Governor Morrill ha3 justified such distrust. Whiikr In Soup Plate. Immediately after his election, Leav enworth celeorated the victory with a banquet. Governor-elect Morrill and many state and local politicians were present. Intoxicating liquors were lit erally "freer than water." With all that was used, the supply appeared aa great at the close as at the beginning. A mix ture of liquors was made one of the courses ana passed in plates as "Repub lican Victory Soup." When a gentleman, then a high ju dicial officer, stated in a toast that he liked their way of doing things, that he believed the people of Leavenworth capable of running their own affairs, that if he were governor they should have the opportunity, that he believed that the governor-elect who sat near would give them such an administration when he came to office, the applause made a pandemonium. Why did these people rejoice in Gov ernor Morrill' election? Why dared they presume a bacchanalian revel would be accepted by him? Why should he,elect ed and about to swear to uphold and enforce the law, enter a community where he knew it to be Bet at defiance and accept a banquet that was an insult to the people of Kansas, thereby encourag ing the nullifiers and law breakers? Why did he not repudiate the unholy thing? Some friends declared he would not have been present at this banquet had he foreknown its character. He disapdoint ed them in attending another outrage upon the moral sentiment of the Kansas iContlnued on Fifth Fage.J

0 HEWS JFKAHSAS. Dr. Talmage Baptizes a Child at Ottawa Assembly. First Couple Married at Wichita Now Divorced. OTHER STATE NEWS. Meeting of Central Kansas Deanery at Abilene. Ottawa, June 20. Every day brings more Chautauquans to Forest park, and if it keeps on increasing in this propor tion the park will soon be inadequate. Assembly hall ia literally packed every night. The up stairs ia divided into rooms, but down stairs about fifty cots re set up on the floor, and about 11 o'clock at niffht it begins to look as if the hall had been turned into a hospital. Some of the campers sleep in hammocks along by the river bank, while others oc cupy cota in their tents, after pulling the side of the tent up that they may get the full breeze. The river is not nearly so high as it was at this time last year, but it has plenty of water in it. The young people have lots of sport out on the water. The boats are in excellent con dition. There are 856 tents on the ground. Mr. Topping, the secretary, estimates that there are about 2,000 people now living on the grounds. Every day there are twenty-five classes. From this number, and the great variety, one can select the most interesting and instructive classes. There are two lec tures every day. The one at 2 o'clock, and in the evening either a lecture or musical concert. Dr. T. DeWitt Talmage has a unique definition of a Chautauqua. Tuesday night he told the audience ail about it. He said: "There are three classes of people I admire. They are men, women and children. And if there is anything I do like better than another, it is a big audience." Dr. Talmage's lectures were well at tended. There was the usual number of squawking babies in the big tabernacle, and they sang their ditties in good styla The second lecture of Dr. Talmage was on Wednesday afternoon. "The School of Scandal" was the subject. All the Chautauquans wanted to hear that talk, for it was a fine subject. Jt sound ed rather mysterious. So the dinner dishes were given an extra quick cold water bath, and the old stand-by towel, which was now becoming stiff with "age," was hurriedly rubbed over them. The little bell at the tabernacle rang at two o'clock, but long before that time the seats had been filled. "Now please be quiet while I read a few announce ments," said President D. C. Milner. Every ear wa3 turned so that the words could be heard. "Now, tomorrow is McKinley day, or, better, G. A. R day,'" continued Dr. Mil ner. "I wish ev.eryone would decorate his own tent with flags and bunting, and make the visitors just as comfortable as jjoasible." Then Dr. Talmage commenced telling his opinion of the school of scandal. "Therms are lots of big schools," said he, "but tht biegest of all is the school of scandal, bome of the people are in the freshmen class, some are seniors, and others have graduated from it and hold a diploma. They are practicing in the world as professors, with the print of the deviL" Then he eave some good advice about talking. "Once 1 saw a great monster. It was bigger than the megatheriums of olden times. Now the boya might Bay that I was telling a falsehood, while deli cate people would say it was a prevari cation. Just plain common people would call it a lie. This monster ia the lie. It ia in every clime, and thrives, I think, better in the temperate zone. It travels as fast as a flash, is in every mail sack as it is opened and shut. A telegraph pole ia only knee high to thia monster." In speaking of people who talk in a scandalous way about other people, Dr. Talmage said: "If there isn't a hell for people who despoil women's characters, then it is time some philanthropist was building one. Many a woman as pure as your wife or your mother has been whis pered out of decent society into the grave by scandal mongers. 1 have more re Bpect for the poor waif who goes down under the gaslight, without a God, than the persons who cover up their tiger's claws with a fine shawl, or that bolt in their hellish heart with a diamond breastpin." When Dr. Talmage finished there were lots of people that went forward to shake hands with him. Most of those that grasped his hand were from the country. If they could just shake hands with a big bug like Dr. Talmage, then they would tell their folks all about it when they got home. There was a man and wife and little daughter who attracted the most atten tion. They asked the noted divine if he would baptize their little one. "Why certainly" said he, "Wont you name it, Dr. Talmage?" asked the lady. "No, I would rather you would name It, my good lady." The father, who is no other than R, L. Goddard of Wiider, Kas., told the name of the child, and Dr. Talmage baptized little Roberta Grace Goddard in the most approved fashion, offered a short prayer and kissed the child. Then the parents carried their little girl out, very proud to have Dr. Talmage perform the cere mony. Dr. Talmage was seen by a Statk Journal reporter at the Centennial hotel yesterday afternoon. Dr. Talmage has been interviewed so many times that he knows just what to say to a reporter, and just how to say it. "Doctor, you are fleshier than you used to be, aren't you?" "Yea," said he, "I'm considerably Btouter than I used to be. When I began preaching thirty -six year3 ago, I was very slim." "Why didn't you name that baby?" asked the reporter. "Well, I am always very careful about at. I might have given that child a me which they would not have liked. aow, my mother's name is Katherine, and is very sacred to me, but some peo ple don't like it." Just at this point a young couple who left the farm to spend the day at Forest park, came up and wanted to shake hands with, the doctor.

Wichita, June 20. The first marriage known to have occurred where the city of Wichita now stands has been legally dissolved in the district court. The divorced couple are Mr. and Mrs. John Ward, Their marriage occurred March 6, 1868. and was the outcome of a pretty frontier romance. Before even the vil lage of Wichita had sprung into exist ence, or the county of Sedgwick was or ganized, a family named Lewellyn re sided on Chisholm creek. Doc Lewellyn had a little ranch, and had lived on the frontier for many years. His home was the stopping place of hun ters and plainsmen Aside from Doc Lewellyn'a popularity as a host, he was also the father of a beautiful daughter just blooming into womanhood. Many hearts were smitten by the charms of the "Queen of the Two Rivera," as his daughter Hannah was called by frontiers men. In a short time it became known that Jack Ward was the lucky man whose love had been returned by Miss Lewellyn. Announcements were sent out through the country that Jack and Doc Lewel lyn'a daughter would be married, and almost every camp in this portion of the state sent a representative and also choice presents. The Indians also took great interest in the coming wedding, as they had known the bride from child hood and counted the groom as worthy of the title of a "pale face brave." Doc Lewellyn, J. It Mead and a number of hunters and cattlemen went to Eldorado, the nearest county seat, and secured the marriage license, which was issued by Probate Judge Parker. A minister could not be found, and the judge waa brought to the Lewellyn ranch. On the afternoon of March 6, 18G8, they were married. Indians and frontiers men by the hundreds joined in the wed ding festivities, which lasted for several days. Here they have lived ever since, and a family has grown about them. A few weeks ago the public was aston ished to read the announcement that a petition for absolute divorce had been fiied by Mrs. Ward. The full prayer of the motion was granted, giving Mrs. Ward alimony and the custody of the children. The only grounds alleged were not support. Central Kansas Deanery. Abilene, June 20.

J handkerchiefs, hats, umbrellas, canes and every available object. Governor McKinley said that no greet ing waa so sacred as a welcome which came from his old comrades of the Grand Army of the Republic. He thanked Governor Morrill from the bottom of his heart for the welcome so sincere and earnest He remembered hia service with Governor Morrill in the national house of representatives. He remem bered him most because he so faithfully stood by the flag and his comrades of the Grand Army. Here Governor Morrill waa visibly af fected and his eyes filled. Governor McKinley too, was overcome and he tried to rally by saying in a jocular manner tnat he was glad to come to Kansas be cause much of Ohio was here, but he could not recover and the scene ended with prolonged cheering. Songa by the Modoc club followed and music by the band after which came a reception to Governor McKinley, Gov ernor Morrill by his aide. Thousands filed past and shook hands with them. After the reception, the crowd dis persed for luncheon, but soon hastened back to the tabernacle and at 1 o'clock, the hour set for Governor McKinley's address to old soldiers, every chair and every foot of standing room beneath the expansive roof was occupied. Governors McKinley and Morrill and their staffs, and Mrs. McKinley and Mrs. Heistand occupied seats on the plat form. Surrounding them were several hundred G. A R officials, state officers, politicians and notables. Governor McKinley read his address from manuscript. When he arose to speak it was some time before President Anthony could restore order, the crowd sending up cheer after cheer. Gov. McKinley's Speech. Gov. McKinley said: "There ia born in every manly breast the determination to defend the thing he loves. We strike down the enemy who would invade our homes and guard family and fireside at the peril of our lives. There is no sentiment so strong as love; no sacrifice too great for those we love. "This is the underlying principle of true patriotism, the foundation of true loyalty to country; the patriot is he who loving hia country is willing not only to fight, but if need be, to die for it. It is this sentiment which gives to human governments their strength. It is this sentiment which nerves the soldier to duty and gains his consent to service and sacrifice. "The strongest and best government is the one which rests upon the reverent affections of its own people and the nearer the government to the people and the people to the govern ment, the stronger becomes the senti ment of patriotism. The laws are of little value if they do not have behind them the respect of the people. Wrhen patriotism has fled from the hearts of the masses the country is nearly dis solution and death. "Patriotism is an absolute consecration to country; it is the total abandonment of business; it is the turning away from plans which have been formed for a life's career; it is the surrendering of bright prospects and the giving up of ambition in a chosen work; it is the sur rendering all the ties of home and family almost the snapping of heart strings which bind U3 to those we love. "It is the consecration of self to the demands of country. It may mean dis ease contracted by exposure or from wounds in battle; it may mean imprison ment, insanity or death; it may mean hunger, thirst and starvation. "In our own civil war it meant all of these. In thia 'Land of the free and home of the brave,' there were nearly three millions who so loved liberty and union, that they were willing at any cost or sacrifice to follow the flag. "The blood of half a million men was exacted in that fearful conflict to save the country, and there are men today, by the tens of thousands, who are suffering from disease contracted in the service of the government, and as many thousands more bearing wounds, from which they suffer every hour in the day and some of these, ala3, are fft distressing poverty. "Our asylums contain many more of the poor fellows whose hard service de throned reason and unbalanced mind for ever. "Can we ever cease to be debtors to these men? Is there any reward in reason they should net receive? Is there any emolument too great for them? Is there any benefaction too bountiful? Is there any honor to these patriotic men which living people can be stow that they should not extend? What the nation is, or may become, we owe loyally to them. "If there ia pne of these old patriots sick at heart and discouraged should not the cheerful and the strong who are to day the beneficiaries of his valor, com fort and console him?" Governor McKinley compared the manner of honoring the old warriors in different countries, and said the gratitude of the people of this country ia of the grand patriotic character that recognizes no title, permits no discriminations and the soldiers, whether of the rank or the file, the line or staff, who fought and fell for liberty and union, are warmly cher ished in the memories of this great and glorious people. Then tne speaker said he would not withhold the most generous eulogy from conspicuous soldiers, living or dead Grant, Sherman, Thomas, McPherson, Meade.Hancock McClellan,Hooker,Cook, Logan and Garfield who were the very incarnation of soldierly valor and vigor before the eyes of the American people. He then paid a beautiful tribute to the private soldiers; to the rank and file of the old regular army who stood loyal for the nnion, when officers who had been educated by the government deserted it. He next compared the armies of the nnion, their battles and losses, with those of our colonial war and with those of Napoleon and other European command era of modern times. At the conclusion of Governor McKin ley's address Mayor Webster Davis of Kansas City spoke. As the hour of 3 o'clock approached. Governor McKinley and party and Gov ernor Morrill and other state officers re turned from the tabernacle to the 3:10 north-bound train, to which waa attached Governor McKinley's private car, and a moment later it waa drawn away, while several thousand people, who had assem bled at the station cheered McKinley, who stood on the rear platform bowing bis acknowledgements. JUDGE FOSTER'S CALL Issued for a Meeting Tomorrow fop Relief for Oklahoma. To the Editor of the State Jourii ai. If one-half the reports of destitution in the Cherokee strip are true the duty of our people is imperative. We know that everything in that sec tion has been burned up for want of rain, and we are assued by absolutely reliable persons that children are crying for food. If there is any people on earth that should respond to this cry it is the people of Kansas. While talking with Mr. Winters of Grant county, Ok., yesterday, the tears came to his eyes as he told of their des titution. Let us send a car load of relief goods down there next week. I invite all people who will help in this cause to meet in the small court room, government building, at 10 o'clock to morrow morning. Very truly, C. G. Fosteb. Topeka, June 20, 1895. ALTGELD NOT WORRIED. Talk About Proroguing the Legislature Is Nonsense, He Says. Springfield, 111., June 20. Governor Altgeld is not worried about the claims of some of the politicians to the effect that the legislature convened by him in extra session will have to be prorogued and a new proclamation issued, thus creating $20,000 additional expense. He said today such talk was all political clap-trap and nonsense. "Money for contingent and necessary expenses will be provided," he said, "and there will be no need of an extra pro clamation to do it." IT CAME TO PASS. Mr. Jennings Said, "Let it be Hotter," and it Was Hotter. The weather ia hot today so hot that even the conservative thermometer at the federal observing station went up to 84 at 2:3J. This is a sign it was nearly 90 on the street level. Regarding the weather Observer Jennings has thia to say: "But slight changes have taken place in the barometer or temperature since yesterday, the barometer being nearly normal at all of the stations slightly lower in Montana and east of Arkansas, slightly higher in Kansas, Iowa and Minnesota. Rain has fallen in Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, Minnesota and Arkansas, and ia still falling at Miles City. Else where fair weather generally prevails, indicating fair weather with but slight changes in temperature in the vicinity of Topeka tonight and Friday. PROF. LAUGHLIN MARRIES.

L Coffman as postmaster cornea the abolishment of the postoffice at Qainton Heights. The reason of its discontinu ance is that L. H. Hendricks, the post master, did not want the honor any longer and no one else could be found to take it Hereafter people who live at Quioton Heights can come to Topeka for their mail, aa the carrier system will not be extended there. The force of carriers, which ia twenty-one, is altogether inade quate to any more work. Twentieth street ia the limit on the south., The Kansas City, Kansas, postoffice has 21 carriers, and Wichita has 13 car riers, and yet the report of the postmas ter general for the year ending June 30th, 1891, shows that the Topeka post office did more business than both of them combined. The gross earnings of the Topeka postoffice for that time were 193,000. One reason of the large busi ness here is the presence of the pension office here. NATION WITHOUT A PALATE. The Italians Seem to Regard Everything; Edible. To the Italian everything Is edible; It is a nation without a palate, says Ouida in the Nineteenth Century. I 6teeps a hare in fennel and eats salt with melons. The craze for devouring birds of all kinds is a species of fury from the Alps to Etna; they crunch the delicate bodies betweent their jaws with disgusting relish, and a lark represents to them a succulent morsel for the spit or pastry. The trade in larks all over the world Is enormous and execrable, and Is as large in England as In Italy. It should at once be made penal by heavy fines on the trappers, the ven ders and the eaters, or ere long no more will the lark be heard on the earth. It is admitted by all who know anything of the subject that agriculture would be impossible without the aid of birds, as the larvas and developed insects of all kinds would make a desert of the entire area of cultivated land. This is well known. Yet all over the world the destruction of birds rages unchecked, and no attempt is made to protect them, to interdict their public sale and to en able them to nest and rear their young in peace. A scientific writer has said, that destruction of the individual is un important. (He was speaking of the destruction of the great auk.) As mat ters go now, unless some stringent measures are taken the birds of Europe) will in the next century be as extinct as is now the dinornis. The ornithophil societies of France and Switzerland have more than once written to me that unless birds be protected in Italy they must perish all over Europe, since so great a variety of races wing their way to the south in winter and there are ruthlessly murdered.

Foreigners sometimes smile at the way Dutch people go on celebrating historical events which occurred sev eral centuries ago, and there is no deny ing that the yearly commemoration of a siege of Groningen in the year 1594 may become somewhat monotonous, but it keeps the memory of such events fresh among the younger generation better than any history learned at school. Unlike the old lady who did not care for history, because she thought "by-gones had better be by-gones," Dutch children, with these constant ap peals to their imaginations, learn to look upon the past as part of the pres ent and feel that they are bound to make themselves worthy of the hero race to whom they owe their liberties.

Subscribe for the Journal, OPENING OF THE FIGHT In the Courts In the Stat Printer Contest Today. The first gun in the state-printerahip contest was fired today by E, 1L Snow, the present incumbent State Printer Snow filed a brief for in junction in the district court today against Major J. K. Hudson, who claims he is entitled to the office after July 1. Secre tary of State W. C. Edwards, Treasurer Otis L. Atherton and Attorney General F. B. Dawes are also made defendants to the suit The object sought to be accomplished by Mr. Snow is to put Major Hudson on the defensive instead of the aggressive. Snow asks that Hudson be enjoined from exercising any of the emoluments of the office of state printer until he shall have been adjudged entitled to hold the office by due process of law in some court of record. Snow also seeks to enjoin Edwards, Dawes and Atherton from refusing to recognize him as state printer after July 1. Mr. Snow's attor neys are David Overmyer and G. C. Clemens. In his petition Snow says the office of state printer became vacant December 12, 1894, by reason of resignation, and that he waa appointed by Governor Lew elling to serve until July 1, or until hia successor was elected and qualified. Snow says Hudson holds an alleged certificate of election to the state printer ship signed by Speaker Lobdell and Lieutenant Governor Troutman, but con tends that no joint-session for the elec tion of a state printer waa held on Jan uary 15, aa is claimed by Hudson. Snow citea that when the so-called "joint ses sion" was held, a majority of the sen ators were in session in the senate chamber, presided over by the president pro tern, and that the secretary of the senate was also present Snow then recites that the executive council has received, approved and re corded Major Hudson's bond and will recognize him as state printer after July 1, unless restrained by the court "They are seeking to oust the satd plaintiff,"the petition says, "without due process of law and Hudson will by connivance and assistance intrude into the said office and exclude the plaintiff therefrom by such stratagem after July 1." Snow then proceeds to make statements concerning Major Hudson's business standing, and that if he is given the office pending the trial of the case, and the case be decided in his (Snow's) favor, that he will have no redress and will be unable to recover one cent of damages, and that hia losa would be not far from $1,000 a month thereby. The object of the suit ia set forth plainly in the last clause of the petition, which reads: "Wherefore the plaintiff prays that the said defendant state officers may, tempo rarily pending this action, and upon hear ing may be permanently enjoined from recognizing or dealing with said J. K, Hudson as state printer, and from refu sing to recognize said plaintiff as such state printer, and enjoying the emolu ments of said office until and un less by the judgment of a compe tent court in due process of law, said Hudson shall be adjudged to be entitled to said office, and that said Hudson may be enjoined from interfering with or hin dering said plaintiff in the exercise of said office until said Hudson shall have obtained such judgment of a competent court in due process of law, entitling him to said office." "David Overmyer, "G. C. Clemens, "Attorneys for plaintiffs." The hearing of the motion for a tem porary reataining order will be had this alternoon, if possible, in the district court It ia customary in each case to grant the temporary reatraining order and hear the trial for a permanent in junction as soon as the pressure of other court business will allow.

Secretary Carlisle is said to be a man possassedof a remarkable memory and yet he seems to have forgotten what he said about silver in 1878. Bank Commissioner Brktdenthai, is about all that is left to remind us of the Populist administration now. Dick Chase has succumbed to the inevitable. General John B. Gordon has an nounced his retirement from politics at a very opportune time. There is nothing more in sight for him. He started out on the wrong side of the silver question. The number of people who are declar ing for silver before party ought to be a warning to the political organizations already in existence. Only one party can elect a president next year, but no party can make any mistake in taking up the cause of the ma-isea. Our minister to Brazil writes the de partment at Washington that the people of that country would prefer to buy our good3, but the channels of trade are not open.

''Gos sip is verf dull in jinporia just now. What E.nporia needa is a few brides; To peka is fall of brides just now, and you can hear most anything there. There is nothing so interesting to talk about as a bride. Up in Topeka they say that there is a Iride who married for money, whose husband makes her do her own work; and they say that there is a young man who jilted one girl because she wouldn't go to the Epworth league, who has just found out that his new wife can swear like a street car driver when she is mad. This is of course idie gossip, but it keeps talk alive on the front porches in Topeka. And that is something in that town."

If he ware less the instrument of small cliques and small men, he might give his party cause to be proud of him. It would be interesting to know what Mr. Cleveland proposes to do when the truce which he bought from the gold syndicate expires. The compact which they have kapt in good faith so far ex pires October 1. There can be but little doubt that the treasury raids will begin promptly after that date. It is noticeable that the gold reserve is not permitted to pass the f 100,000,000 mark, so that the effect of the syndicate's operatious will be felt at once when it is ready to begin withdrawals. From October till Decem ber when congress meets will afford ample time to forca another bond issue. ine president may conclude to call an extra session and throw the responsibil uy 01 meeting tne situation on congress. but such a course is hardly probable on the part of Mr. Cleveland. In an editorial article the Chicago limes-Herald pronounces strongly against partisanship in connection with state legislation and asks whv there should be politics a understood in a na tional sens mixed up with state affairs. The suggestion is a good one. To make, amend or repeal statutes of a state de mands good citizenship. That is alL The people of Kansas are fully conversant with the evils growing out of partisan a&a in state 2alrs. Good measures are defeated, bad laws are passed, time and money without end wasted all for the sake of gaining party advantages. Why cannot men ba elected on account of their fitness alone? Is it not impossible? 8iica the redaction of the tariff on fireworks the Chinese should soon save enough money to pay that indemnity. The amount which they have formerly been called upon to pay in the way of a tariff tax on such wares mast have amounted to a large sum annually. This idea, of course, is based on the assump tion that the foreigner pays the revenue duty. It will be difficult, however, to make the youth of the country believe that they haven't been paying it. Not being McKinleys they don't understand these tariff matters. KANSAS PARAGRAPHS. Miss Rosa Bush of Oberlin has just bloomed into the state of matrimony. Kirwin has an an anti-cigarette smok ing ciub. It is a good thing. The papers should give it a puff. Beloit has an old stage driver who can out talk even a man who knows all about the money question.

The Goodland News thinks the new woman wouia attract more attention 11 she wouid make her bloomers to tit. The Norton Champion satisfies its readers' taste for blood-curdling tales by ruuning articles bn "The Crime of 1873." It doesn't always pay to be cleanly. A Notron man who had used a lamp chimney a year cleaned it and the same night it broke. One of the residents of Jewell county used to be on the Chicago police force. Us should be glad that he is now an American citizen. The Beloit boy who washes his feet these barefoot days, without being made to by hU mother, is considered a goody, goody, cr goo goo. A Norton man offers to pay the ex penses of moving the tent if the camp meeting people will move their "joytul noides" out of range of his house. A sure enough gypsy fortune teller took in many dollars at Kingman last week, for she promised every young wo man who went to her a man.

Houston, Tex., June 20,-The north bound Flyer of the Missouri, Kansas Texas was wrecked at a point ten miles north of here last night, The wreck .occurred at a branch of White Oak bayou, which is usually dry, but had been swollen by heavy rains. Engineer Henry Garrett, when within 20 yards of the bridge, saw it sag and applied the air brakes, which partially reduced the momentum. The engine stuck close to the track, while the ten der, baggage cars, smoker and two coaches left the track and turned over. Conductor Johnson walked 'back to Houston, a distance of about eight miles, and a relief train was dispatched to the scene with surgeons. The wreck presented a horrible sight, and how anybody escaped instant death is a miracle. The injured: J. W. Slooum, fireman, Smithville, bruised. John Graham, Caney, injured in back, hip and side; may die. T. D. Benfrow, Denison, badly bruised in back. Ranfrow is a baggage master, his home is in Sulphur Springs, Ky. Butler Davis, New Ulm, chest injured and jiw broken. Allen Johnson, aged 5 years, of Trini ty, injured in hip. The injured were brought to HouBton and placed in the hospital A IT OF TRAINING ANIMALS Principle That Are Applied to the In stinct of the Varlou, fubj-cts in Hand. Animal training is an art based on definite rules, which vary but little in their application to the InstictS of the different pupils, and the demands made upon the teacher are sometimes even more exacting than those whereby the college professor leads his charges. The teacher is not a creator of systems to start from, but the philosophy is purely experimental, and after observing the regularity with which the animals fol low the same habits, he bases his method of training them on these lines. What ever the animal he wishes to train, the teacher begins by Watching it closely, endeavoring to discover not only the use ful habits of the race, but the personal disposition of the individual in question. One specimen raises itself naturady up on its hind legs, another is born with the talect of jumping. And so on does the application apply to each case. Observe the application of these principles by the trainers with the Great Wallace Shows. WITH CANNON BOOMING. The Great Baltic Canal I Opened by Em peror William. Bruns-Buttel, June 20. -At a quarter of four this morning the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern,with Emperor William and the princes ou bo.ird, entered the west ern water gate of the Baltic and North sea canal in order to formally open it. the gate was magnificently decorated and the Hohenzol- lera passed through amid ringing cheers, the military associations, stu dents, delegations and masses of the populace, the bands playing the national anthem and accompanying the music were the voices of the crowds assembled, who joined heartily in the chorus. Ilia majesty stood on the deck of his yacht and bowed his thanks with visible emo tion on all sides. At 4 o'clock the Hoheczollern severed the t lira ads stretched across the canal and commenced the passage of the new waterway. Being the first vessel to formally pass through the canal she was greeted with vociferous cheers from the mass of spectators. The appearance of the Ilohenzollern was the signal for a simul taneous canonading from the vast fleet of war ships in the bay, as they fired salutes in honor of his majesty. The tiohenzollern then replied with her guns to the salutes of the foreign warship and the opening of the Baltic and North sea canal was an accomplished facf. This being the fifty-eighth anniversary of the accession of Queen Victoria to the throne of Great Britain, by special com mand of Emperor William, a royal salute was fired at noon from all the German warshipn which at the same time hoisted the British flag to the strains of the national nnthem of Great Britain.

CURES THE TOBACCO HABIT IN 4 TO 10 DAYS OR MONEY REFUNDED. Use All the Tobacco You Want Till Your "Craving" is Gone. Narcoti-Ccbe is the only remedy in the world that acts directly on tha nerves and drives the nicotine from the system in from four to ten days. It leaves the patient In better health than before taking, and is warranted free from any injurious ingredients. Narcoti-Cure is popular because it allows the patient to use all the tobacco he wants while under treatment, or until the "craving" and "han kering" are gone. It is then no sacrifice to throw away tobacco forever. Narcoti-Cure is sold at the uniform price of $5.00 a bottle, and one bottle cures. Money refunded if a cure is not effected when taken according to directions. PROF. W. N. WAITS, Of Amherst Kass., Chewed Tobacco for 4.S years, and was Cured lay Narcoti Cure.

After uning many other rem edies I was induced to try Munyon's Catarrh Cure. In a short time all the symptoms of the disease disappeared and now I am permanently cured." Hon. Wilbert F. Farnham, recently the candidate on the Prohibition ticket for Secretary of State of Massachusetts, says: "One bottle of Munyon's Dyspep sia Cure cured me of a very aggravated case of dyspepsia and stomach trouble, from which I had suffered for years. I do not usually give testimonials, but in this case the cure was effected so thor oughly and quickly that I deem it my duty that other sufferers should know of it." Louis Cupp, 1315 Sansom street, Phil tdelphia, the steward of Forepaugh'a Circus, says: "I was subject to moat ma lignant attacks of rheumatism. None of the many remedies I used did me any good until I began using Munyon's Rheumatism Cure. Its effects were marked. The pain left almost instantly and within a short time I was entirely cured." Munyon's Remedies act almost in the most obsti- stantly, speedily curing nate cases. Rheumatism cured in from 1 to 3 daya Dyspepsia and all stomach troubles quickly relieved.
