THE LEAYENWRTH TIMES, SATURDAY MORNING, MARCH 2 1907 THIS MISTER VISIIIN6 SPECIALISTS FROM THE CI eveland Institute of fled-Line and Surgery, (Legally Chartered Incorporated) CLEVELAND, OHIO, Will pay their first visit to LEAVENWORTH And will be at the NATIONAL HOTEL Thursday, March 6 and 7. i Tell your Sick Friends TWO DAYS ONLY 9 A. M. to 7:30 P. M.

FREE This Institute in order to introduce their hew Medical Discoveries and X-Radiura System, sends at its own expense these eminent specialists to give to those who call on the above date, consultation, examination, advice and all medicine required to complete a cure, absolutely free. specialists will diagnose your case and give you the benefit of their medical knowledge. Their is no experimenting or guess work. You will be told whether you can be cured or not. If your case is curable, they treat you; if incurable they will give you such advice as may prolong your life.

They have discarded the old remedies used for ages by the medical world and which it would be folly to depend upon any longer for they do not cure, as thousands die depending on them for relief. Mo! jiSpj ashamed to, for it would be honorable. It has been reported that I receive $15 per week at the works, but the, amount is smaller. Instead of receiving $1,100 from the church, I am to get $800 and my wages at the electrical plant. "When my plans were fully developed I called the members of the church together and, in asking permission i to carry them out, spoke plainly my views in certain matters.

I have always looked forward to the day when suppers for revenue only and large fairs might recede into the background and the energies thus expended be turned into other I do not refer to such a supper as the" one we are having tonight. On the contrary, I believe in them most thoroughly. But I wish to speak of suppers for revenue. In the first place, you contribute about everything that makes up the supper. That is a free gift.

Then you come here and work until by the time the last thing is cleared a way you are well nigh willing to saythat you hope never to see the church again. 'When the smoke clears away you have made $30 or less. Of this $30 I venture to say that 80 per cent of it appears on the grocery bills you pay at the end of the month. I do not know to what extent out church is guilty in the matter, but I do know that the merchants of this city have" found it necessary to protect themselves against such institutions, in general by refusing to buy tickets. The tickets- are bought not because of any interest in any particular event, but that the seller may not be offended.

It is, in short, a sort of blackmail. A church ought to support itself in some other way or cease to be. 'It has alway been the custom of ministers to lengthen out their salaries. In the old days, the ministers took students into their families and gave private Now they run about the country, lecturing, or write hack stuff for papers and magazines. For reasons which I will not enumerate I prefer the method I have In order to carry his double burden Mr.

Davis works from 6 a. m. until 11 p. m. The Stanley plant is a mile from his home and he walks to work and back twice daily.

Mr. Davis does not purpose to slight his church particular. The informal pastoral calls will not be discontinued and there is joy at the county jail over the announcement that he will still have an evening a week for the educational classes at the institution, as heretofore. The jail work is one which Mr. Davis has carried on-single-handed.

J. AT WATER, Mgr. Phone 5 19 Main 415 Cherokee Street To Help His Church Pay His Own Salary As Pastor HELPED CRAMPED FINANCES. Asked Permission of His People That He Be Allowed to Work in Electric Plant. "I ask -vou to reduce my salary $300 per year and to refrain from rais ing money by suppers and church fairs.

A man thirty years old, 6 feet tall and weighing 175 pounds, is lacking in self-respect if he has-his salary paid in part by the: hani work of women." The rustle of surprise which greeted this announcement by the Rev. Earl C. Davis to the members of the Unity church, at Pittsfield, was intensified wnen me yuuuy clergyman continued, earnestly, but without a trace of emotion: I want' your permission to go to work. A position is awaiting me in the production department of the Stanley electric works. I desire your consent to accept it tomorrow." The Rev.

Davis had his way, though a few members of his congregation had to swallow their pride in order, to make the decision of the church unanimous. His salary has fallen from $1,100 to $800, and from a man of comparative, leisure his cares have become so numerous that he scarcely has time to sleep. All New England, the unchurched as well as the churched, is. interested in Mr. Davis's startling departure from the rut of church ethics.

Mr. Davis himself, who had even, hoped to escape publicity altogether, is dazed, almost displeased, by the attention he had attracted. It is somewhat significant that while Mr. Davis has heard from but a single clergyman his mail has contained' scores of congratulatory epistles from laymen. "I value them all highly he said, "for I believe they come from the heart." "From the heart." The -words admirably characterize the- personality of Mr.

Davis, whor instead of entertaining the notion that, -he is a martyr in a good cause, has entered upon his busy schedule with the enthusiasm of a school boy." The unusual stand of Mr. Davis is due solely to the cramped finances of his church. The Unity Church, however, has always managed to make ends meet, and the radical position of the pastor is not an outgrowth of complaints of burdenea parrshoners who have become schooled to look upon sociables and fairs as a sort of necessary evil. In his cozy study a few evenings ago, seemingly linfatigued by a busy day in the electric plant, supplemented by several hours of pastoral work Mr. Davis told a reporter of his hopes and his' plans.

The picture was heightened by the apparent satisfaction derived from a fragrant briar pipe which in moments of more than usual earnestness r. Davis unconsciously drew from his mouth and tapped on the arms of his, Morris chair. Church That Pays Its Way. "A church at its best is a grand organization, but a church that is not self respecting and independent is a despicable institution," said Mr. Davis.

"A church ought to be supported entirely by its contributing members, though it is true that very few churches are thus supported. As a part of our church income we received $325 annually from the Unity Workers the women of the church. It has always seemed a shame to me that they have had to work 'so hard to raise money thus contributed, and it has always seemed Wrong that a church, which ought to be a place where people could come for recreation and refreshment, should become a place of such tiring toil and labor. "I did not embark upon this experiment blindly, and I have accepted the position in the Stanley plant, which is a part of the General Electric; Company, with the understanding that I can be absent in eniergertc-ie such, for as, a death-bea or a funeral. No, do not wear overalls at my work, as some have assumed, but I should not be 7 PUMPS TO EXHIBITION Feats of Horsemanship Will Performed in the Riding HaU.

Wed. and Thursday, March 6 and 7. physician says that eighty per cent of the women who complain and go to a "doctor for treatment do not need a doctor, but common sense; that many women are so wrapped up in themselves that if they have a pain in a certain part" of their body they fix their minds on it and consult physicians to whom they make all kinds of unnecessary confidences.

The physicians says that if women would get over the idea that they are more delicately organized than men, and instead would take care of themselves, as most men do, there would be less for the physicians to do. He sa3s the idea that a woman is physiologically different from a man, and therefore must suffer from nervous diseases, is all wrong that in her way she should be the healthier of th sexes, and that she can be if she win call herself instead of a doctor; that half the who are "treated" by doctors are a nuisance to those around them and disgust the physicians to whom they go. He says that the craze for operations is due to the fact that women allow their minds to dwell upon their inner organs; become nervous and hysterical; go to a doctor who makes an examination and thinks it will do no harm to take something out, especially as his women patient seems to desire to have something of the kind done. In his opinion many a woman has been mutilated for life by unnecessary operations, but in nine cases out of ten it is fher.own fault. He says many women have said to him: "Oh, if you men suffered from nervous troubles you would not be so heartless," and that as a matter, of fact more men suffer from nervous troubles than women, but they have self control and are not crazy over doctors the way many women are.

The physician concludes by saying these women who think they have "something the matter with them inside" are the ones who "rave" over their doctor and not only lose the respect of the people who hear them "rave," but absolutely injure the profession.

Wltile Edward Barrett was asleep in a restaurant on West Main street a few dayV ago, one of the bartenders, as a jcke, placed a copper" coin heated to white heat on his knee.

Barrett attempted to retaliate and was locked up. The coin burned the flesh and caused tjood poison, and it has been found necessary to amputate the limb above the knee. The brutality of tSe affair has aroused indignation. OLD TIME NOTES "ii Sk- ifi" 1C "Ik Atchison Globe: During the spring of 1858, Atchison people were excited over the town's prospects. Long trains of wagons drawn by oxen were trailing over the Kansas and Nebraska prairies toward California and Salt Lake.

Everything indicated that Atchison "would become the starting point of these emigrations. For this reason the people began to talk of building large warehouses, and forwarding and commission buildings. Talk of a railroad from St. Joe to Atchison, and from here to Weston, lent to the excitement. A new hotel at the corner of Second street and what was then streets was being put up.

With the basement this building was to be four stories high, and had a forty-two foot frontage on second street, and seventy-two feet on street. The blue print marked one-half of the base ment as a dining room, and the other half was cut into rooms for a barber shop, saloon and bath room. The office or "reception" room, a reading room, library and family rooms made up the first story above ground, while the second and third stories were bedrooms. The cost of the hotel was to be $10,000. During the spring 150 tenement houses were contracted for.

A man by the name of Roswell intended to make brick as soon as the weather moderated. The ice in the rivef was expected to break and clear away, allowing the steamboats of the Union line to come up from St. Louis Because it held that the pro-slavery men had captured the county offices of Atchison, Anderson. Butler, Coffey, Calhoun, Davis, Greenwood, Johnson, Hunter, Leavenworth, Marshall, Wise and Woodson counties by fraud, the territorial legislature of 1858 declared in favor of new elections in these counties. This declaration brought great applause from the anti-slavery men in Atchison county.

The election was to be held on the fourth Monday of March 1858, and officers elected then were to hold their places until the general election in 1859. The Sumner Gazette of February 20. 1858, was devoted most ly to knocks against the City of Atchison. Sumner was laid out during March, that year, and thrived wonderfully. By February 20 it had several really creditable buildings.

It was then just large enough to be "sassy," and assert its jealousy of! Atchison. Dr. Kob, of! the Kansas "Zeitung," published in Atchison and the only German Free state paper in the state at that time, retired in 1858, and set about the laying out of a new town on Independence creek. The town was "Bunker Hill." A big railroad meeting occurred in St. Joe during the latter part of February, 1858, and it was practically decided that the railroad from St.

Joe to Atchison and Weston would be built at once. It seemed that two sets of directors were pushing different lines, and the object of the meeting was to have the two forces meet and push one route to Atchison and Weston. About twenty-five men from Atchison and a like number from Weston attended the meeting, which decided to commence on the St. Joe-Weston-Atchison line at once, General Pome-roy's mill was started in 1S58. Atchison people Icongratulated themselves that they were able to use flour made from Kansas wheat and ground by a Kansas mill.

On March 2, 1858, the convention to nominate delegates was held at Pardee. F. G. Adams, Atchison; Caleb May, Monrovia; G. M.

Fuller, Cayuga; A- Woodworth, Mt. Pleasant, and H. S. Baker, of Sumner, were the delegates elected. The Constitutional convention met at the territorial capitol, Minneola.
