About a edr ago an insane wotran kicked her in the aodomen and since that time she had been in poor hea th and an operation became necessary. The phjsician in charge of the Marshall asvlum, fearing results, took Miss Kennedy to the hospital in Kansas City for treatment. After diag-Dosing the case the doctors came to the conclusion that the patient was afflicted with impactment of the colon, and that an operation would have to be resorted to. It was. It was intended to do this Tuesday morning but on account of a 8udden change for the worse, the operation was performed Monday with fatal results.

The body was brought to Pleasanton Tuesday evening, and the funeral services were held in the Presbyterian church yesterday at 3 oclock, conducted by Rev. Jewell, of Butler, assisted by Rev. Beeson, after which all that was mortal of one of Pleasantons oest young ladies was taken to the cemetery for interment, followed by a host of friends who joined the relatives in sorrow. Miss Kennedy was very popular In Pleasanton. For jeais her influence for good was felt among the young people of this place.

Slie-was active in society. Her demise is a sad blow to her aged parents, only brother and many friends. The sympathy of all is extended to those bowed in sorrow for the loss of a dutiful daughter and kind sister. Take a look at onr plain and fancy qnccnswaro lamps, vases, etc. Money savers.

These are among the more important bills of the session not including many valuable local bills which will be of benefit to the several counties and municipalities which they affect. I believe the legislature of 1905 is the best legislature this state has ever had. It has taken longer to do its work then vve expected, but, taking into consideration the long array of promises made at Wichita and the new departure of legislation that those promises compelled, I believe the patriotic public will agree with me that do legislature has done so well for Kansas before. We have gotten through with less friction than was expected considering the antagonistic interests Involved in the new legislation. When we were up against a hard proposition we usually found the way out.

Few bills of any value or importance fell by the way-side. Some fell, of course, but tlieie is do perfection on this earth, uot even in a legislature. Hon. B. Siieridan, the Democratic editor of the Paola Spirit, lias been up to Boicourt the past two week hunting, and from a letter to his paper we copy the following: B.

F. Blaker, now State Senator, is one of the big men of this, Linn county. His home is in Pleasanton.

Stubbs, chairman of the Republican state committee and speaker of the house of the last legislature, has been checking the legislation enacted during the cession which ended last week and hcismre than satisfied with the record. lie considers that the promises made have been redeemed and points to the new laws which will result in a saving ol money to the people.

In a prepared statement, he has the following to ay regarding the matter: The state printing plant will undoubtedly cause a saying at the least calculation of $40,000 annually. The state depository law on 2 per cent basis will be worth to the state and counties, where collections will remain until drawn pro rata monthly as required for state use, upwards of $30,000 per year. The reduction in cxoenne of the legislature compared with 1003 was about $17,000, The chief clerk ef the house and the secretary of the senate were put on a straight basis in lieu of a per folio basis, which caused the house and senate journals to contain an immense lot of unnecessary stuff at an expense of a great many thou-an 1 dollars to the state. I think the saving in this item alone will probably be $6,000 or $7,000. 'Two years ago the chairs, flags, desks and property amounting to a large sum of money were voted away by the members of the legislature.

This year scarcely a single article is missing from the list originally purchased, which saves a large expense for the next legislature. An act to prevent grain dealers from arbitrarily deducting 100 pounds grain from each car load will save to the farmers of the state approximately $50,000 according to its author, benator Blaker. The important difference between the new board of control which will have charge of all the charitable institutions of the state from tlie old board is: First The members of the board give their entire time and energy to looking after this work, and are not permitted to bold office or be a candidate for any office during the time of their employment, or for one year thereafter, which practically removes them Irotn active politics Second The board of control will establish general offices in the state-housey and be in daily communication with all the institutions over which they have charge, which places the business-interests these institutions as sound a business basis as any commercial enterprise in the state. Third The superintendents of the aeveral Isstitutlon under the new law hires and discharges all employes under their charge. It is- provided, however, that no employe may be discharged for political reasons, which places the entire responsibility for the success of each institution where it properly belongs and guarantees to every employe in the several institutions employment so long as he is industrious, capable and worthy, which is the extreme Jimit of civil service protection that can be extended.

The new railroad law, if wisely ad-mnistered, is probably the strongest law that has every been placed on the statute books of any state. The uniform instrument-law, which is already operation in twenty states is a valuable addition to our statutes. The law governing the school iund commissioners places all the safe guards that ean be devised around these funds, which should be guarded and protected in every way possible. One of the mst vicious practices that has ever obtained in any state has been absolutely and entirely eliminated from our poitical system, and that is the traffic in public offices and the paying of private and party debts with public patronage. Daring the late campaign and the seion of the legislature not a single or intimation of a promise was made to anv person for his inff pence or vote on any question, to my knowledge.

In addition to the above other important taws were passed which may oe grouped as follows: OIL LEGISLATION. (A)--Maximum fr -ight rate on ols, anti-disci imination bill, making pipe lines a common carrier, and state oil refinery. 4 she died Wednesday morning about 1 oclock after suffering excruciating pain for thirty-six hours. Dr. Rees was called and was in attendance on the unfortunate woman a few minutes after meeting with her sad fate.

But she was past the skill of the physician, and all he could do was to assist in alleviating her pain until the guardian angel relieved her by death. Mrs. Hendrix was fifty-eightjyears of age. She was born in Ohio and with her parents, Mr. and Mrs.

Dan-ford Robbins, moved to Centerville township, Linn county, Kansas, when ten years of age. From 1861 to 1864 she taught school in Linn county. August 30th, 1S64, she was married to William Hendrix, making Centerville township their home until moving to Pleasanton in 1S86. She leaves a husband and four daughters Mes-dames Etta Cox of Illinois, Grace Giles of Blue Mound, Cassie White of Kansas City and Dollie Widner of Indian territoy, two brothers Mel and A1 Robbins and one sister, Mrs. James Crabtree.

Deceased was a member of the Christian church and Jewel Relief corps, being treasurer of the latter organization at the time of her death. She took an active interest in Relief corps woilc, was a true Christian, was generous and kind and always happy when she could be doing something to make the life burdens of others easier. The funeral service were held at the residence yesteidav at 11 oclock conducted by Rev. Odenweller after which the remains of this good woman was laid to rest in the Pleasanton cemetry. Mrs.

Hendrix will be missed from the midst cf her associates and Grand Army circles. COURT HOUSE NEWS. TROD VTl COURT. Hearing and judgment of insanity agaiut Harriet A. Meriiman, and ordered sent to the state hospital.

Monday evening the people of Pleasanton were shocked to learn that Miss Nettie Kennedy, only daughter of Robert Kennedy, of this place, died in St. Joseph's hospital, Kansas City, that evening at 5 o'c ock.

For two or three years Miss Ken thick, tall ouMvCown. lie ha' it Ql Banner PstH Of the American working man is generally well filled. In some cases it is too well filled. It contains too many kinds of food, and very often the food is of the wrong kind hard to digest and containing little nutrition. As a consequence many a working man develops some form of stomach trouble which interferes with his health and reduces his working capacity.

Where there is indigestion or any other indication of disease of the stom-ach and its allied organs of digestion and nutrition, the use of Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery will almost invariably produce a perfect and permanent cure. Mr. Thomas A. Swarts, of Sub Station C.

Columbus. Box iox, writes: nI was taken with severe headache, then cramps the stomach, and my food would not digest, then kidney and liver trouble and my back got weak so I could scarcely get around At last I had all the complaints at once, the more I doctored the worse I til six years passed I had become so I could only walk in the house by the got uutil six years passed poorly I could only walk 1 aid of a chair, and I got so thin I had given up to die, thinking that I could not be cured. Then one of rnv neighbors said, Take my advice and take Dr. Pierces Golden Medical Discovery and make a new man out of yourself The first bottle helped me so I thought I would get another, and after I had taken eight bottles about six weeks, I was weighed, aud found I had gained twenty seven (27) pounds I am as stout and healthy to day, I thiuk, as I ever was Free.

Ciuntentlona tloer y. The following was told me th ether day as a true story: During one of the hottest of the recent spells of hot weather a well-known baronet came across three workmen engaged on a job on his estate. One cf them remarked, as workmen not infrequently do, on the dryness of the job. The heat had perhaps extended itself to the baronets temper. At any rate, he turned away with the reply, If you are thirsty, you know where the welt is.

You will find a pall there. Thinking over his remark a little later, it flashed across the baronets mind that he had given orders for three bottles of champagne to be put into the pail and lowered into the well to cool for dinner. He hastened to the well and discovered three empty bottles! What he said this time is not reported. Lon-don Truth. KINGS ON SHORT COMMONS.

tHn Io liars a Week Is Kins of Samoa's Salary. It would seem that riches and regal power do not always go together, at any rate there are monarchg in receipt of salaries which the average city clerk would despise. The king of Portugal is piobably the poorest sovereign in Europe. He is supposed to receive J410.000 a year, but it is alleged it is some time since he received anything at all, because money is uncommonly tight in the national exchequer, Many of the royal dependents pay their tradesmen with credit notes, but bo doubt in the future when Portugal, by practicing the stricest economy, rights herself they will be above par. The sultan is a rich man, but his position is not responsible for his wealth.

Were it not that he has enormous private means he could not rule over Turkey, because some years have now elapsed since he drew even a portion of his salary, although the Turks boast that he i3 paid at the rate of $3,900,000 I per annum for occupying the throna This is true on paper but in reality Abdul Hamid gives his services for I nothing, owing to the bankrupt con- 1 dition of his country. About $9 a week is the munificent salary of the king of Samoa. The Berlin general act cf 1SS9 brought this once powerful monarch 1 face to face with poverty and settled the allowance mentioned upon him In lien of the thousands he formerly played with. The most humiliating fact, howeve-, is that bis chf juctice receives $6 0C0 and his president of council $5,000 a year, whi.e his most lnsiguifi cart, snfc'eei has an income lithe c. a T.i By the Kansas City Journal we learn that Her.rv J.

After being defrauded out of a nomination he had fairly won he took bis medicine like a man and did good work ior the Republican ticket. There is no ei-low in Henry Allen.
