IN MEMORIAM. The news of the passing away from eirth of the spirit of Mrs. Ellen Strong Stedman will fall sadly on many hearts, not only in the west where she has parsed more than fifteen years, but in New England, her childhood's 'nome. It -was be most truly said of Mrs. Stedman, that: "None knew her but to love her.

None named her but to praise." Of a gentle and affectionate dkposl-tlon, unfailing in loyalty to her frienis loving all that was beautiful In nature, her personality was charming; added to this was a remarkable earnest and devoted Christian religion and the doctrines of the church. An enthusiast In her love for muric and flowers, she derived from them some of her greatest pleasures, and the church cf which she was a merrtber was for may years supplied upon every Saobath with flowers from her home. In the sad taking away of Mrs. Stedman, many families and communities sustain an Irreparable loss. Her sweet smile, beiming eye and cordial handclasp can never C03 replaced, aching void never filled.

She was indeed laid down to p'easant dreams, awakening in Paradise. BIOGRAPHY.

SPENCER SATS LEWELLIHO OAK'T BE ELECTED TO SUCH OFFICE, Pollcs Conmlssioaar Geora bpeocsr Has Been Cp to Topeka Wbera Ha hT' Got Klgbt With Lcedy and Secured tba Governor's Pro mis a to Let lbs Wlcblta Hoard Alone Says Lewslllog Ooald Not Be Elected to tbe Office of lio( Falter and That Cone Will Be Fired From tbe State Committee Geo. Spencer has been to Topeka. He saw a cloud since the election that was larger than a man's hand and George went to Topeka to get right with Gov eraor Leedy. He sfys he got right all right, and he emitted the following In terview while in the capital city, wlilch provea the animus with which he and the kumel snubbed Lewelling, Cone.

Sankey, Campbell and others when Bryan was here. The account of Spen cer's trip to see the governor, along with his Interview, is given, in the following dispatch from Topeka: The rumor going the rounds that Governor Leedy was about ready to abolish all of the police boards in the state, together withthe recent shaking up of the Leavenworth board and the utterances of ex-Governor Lewelling. brought George Spencer, a member of the WicTaita board, to the state house bright and early this morning. The fact ia he struck town about 5 o'clock, and went direct to the state house and perched hlmse' down cn the stone steps and rhivered and waited until Governor Leedy put In an appearance. The two held a long consultation, and when Spenser emerged it would not take a mind reader to discover that "hs was feeling better.

He wore a broad smile, but would not talk about -the conference. Neither would the governor. "Spencer, however, opened up on other matters. 'Rufe Cone will soon be fired off the Populist state sakl he. 'His days are numbered.

Petitions are blng signed by all the Populists of Sedgwick county demanding that the state committee remove him. Cone is not a Populist. He voted the straight Republican ticket this fall and made no bones about it. Do you think the committee wants a Republican on it? Well, I guess not. Jus: watch Rufe drop.

"What about Cone's movement to havethe present police board at Wichita ir-moved? was asked. 'It don't amount to anything. He has no influence with the governor or anybody else, with, the possible exception cf 'How about Lewelling? 'Well. I don't like to say much about the dead. The fact is be couldn't be elected dog pelter in Sedgwick county egain." "Spencer told a friend before rne ft the city this afternoon that Leedy had promised not to disturb the "Wichita board.

Lewelling couldn't be elected to the office cf dog pelter. That's Police Commissioner George Spencer's opinion of the first Populist governor of Kansas. Lewelling is an ex-governor and railroad commissioner of the state now, and the people of Sedgwick county have a good deal of admiration for him. If he was running for an office in the gift of Sedgwick county against King George, Lewelling would get three votes to Spencer's one right along and on that sort of a proposition if Lewelling couldn't be elected to -Che office of dog pelter, it would be rather difficult to figure out the size of place Spencer could attain to. And he says that Rufe Cone will be fired from tlva tate central committee.

Mr. Cone anwers for -himself and his reply is an stated herebefore very much in the nature of giving Mr. Spencer and J. Ft Arnold the horse laugh. "I will be Ftld yesterday, "till the next state convention In spite of J.

In fact, I was not aware that they had one." "Will tie Frisoo eventually get control of the new road?" "I don't know. They have the money to buy the exterifiion.

So is piles. People often become afflicted with piles and ask some old "chronic" who has always persisted in the wrong treatment and naturally he discourages them by telling them that their case is hopeless. They in turn discourage others, and thus a disease that can in every case be cured by careful and skillful handling is allowed to sap the energy of thousands who might free themselves of the trouble in a few days. Pyramid Pile Cure will cure the most aggravated case of hemorrhoids in an astonishingly short time.

JURISDICTION QCESTIOX IX TUK FRISCO RECEIVERSHIP Father of Effsr Felix Sacs For Flflesa Thoasnud Dollars In the district court, ibefore Judge Dale tfne case of Effer Felix vs. the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad company et si was on for hearing on demurrer made by the railroad company. It appeared rhat in December, 1SS4.

whiie the St. Louis and San Francisco Railroad company was being operated by the receivers. Effer Fe'Ax, a child of 5 or 6 years of age, caught his foot in a switch-frog in the eastern part of the city, and the train came along and cut -hie left leg off just below the knee. Shortly after It ap- pears, that the railway company believing that suit would be brought it, went to Felix, the father of the bey, and took him into court and prepared and filed a case and furnished the money for the cost bond to bring suit against Itself and had judgment rendered against itself for J450 in favor of th boy who had lost hi3 leg, and fhen paying J73 of the money to the company'. physician and 523 to the Sr.

Francis hospital, where they had the boy taken. Oscar Felix, fhe fattier of the boy, afterward learned that the proceeding in court wa3 a laws-iit and I'hat it would prevent his boy from recovering anything further, and he refused to accept the money paid ii by the ranroad company, which is yet in court. He afterward prought this action to set asUle this judgment so rendered in his boy's favor, alleging that it was fraudulently obtained and that the boy was damaged In the sum of 513.000 and not 5300. wtiich he was allowed Attorneys Glecd and Palmer of Topoka represented the railroad company and clii-ned that the company was not liable as the property at that time was In the hands of receiv-erv. and claimed that the order made by United States Circuit Judge Caldwell.

In Missouri, did not confer Jaris diction eo as enable plaintiff to bring i-uit in the state court, whiie Adams Adams and J. D. H.nistMi. who represented Effer FeV.x. that the order of Juige Call we'd was valid and made the property in the hin-Js of receivers liable jr the pjymer.t of all damages the boy faad sustained, and they maintained that he was damaged in at to 515.00 and that was a great fraud upon the boy to get hini into court in the manner the company attemptel to.

and that th- julgment was fraudulent and should be set aside. Judge Dale, af-ttr h-riring th counsel for both fides, ovcrruit-d the demurrer of the railroad company and held that the -petition sttt-cd a caue of action and gave the cc-npany to answer in the case. This c.i WiS be watched with a good 1 of Interest as many people are anxious t. kr.ow whether a child can be permanently Injure and prevented from recovering by a uit of this kind.
