Sunday, fair, uann'r in western jwrtion. Democrats in the House of Represen tatives have been trying to force tbe Re piblicana to an investigation of tbe post office scandals, but they failed bo far. The Republicans are not anxious to have the li)?ht turned on. They killed a reso lution for the purpose of calling an in vestigation of the Bristow charges by re ferring it to a committee and there it will likely sleep in the desk of the Chairman- A net gain to the government of 2,000, 000 hours of labor per year is figured to be one of the results of the order just issued which keeps the clerks in the various departments at work until 4:30 each afternoon instead of dismissing them at 4 o'clock, as has been the custom. These 2,000,000 hours mean approxi mately $7,000,000 of service annually. About 100,000 clerks are affected and the change is figured to be equivalent to the addition of 7,143 clerks. The constant requests from the heads of the depart ments for more clerical help led to the new order. They got the help but in a way they didn't expect. The last Congress appropriated $500, 000 to aid in the prosecution of trustB, and Attorney General Knox's report shows that he has used only 5 per cent, of it. The combines are in no danger a long as Knox is Attorney General. The fact that only 5 per cent, of the appro priation has been used furnishes con vincing evidence of Mr. Knox's inactiv ity. He reports that a salt company out on the Pacific coast was fined $1,000 for monopolizing the salt trade of California, but the company evidently was not on to Knox and his associates, because it very foolishly pleaded guilty. If it had stood its ground and made a fight, the Attorney General would likely never have pushed the case. There are dozons of trusts operating all over the country, a fact the Attorney General well knows, but if he haa taken any steps to protect the people from the greedy extortioners no one knows it. What is needed is an Attorney General who is not under the thumb of the combines. MRS. FRANCES E. OWENS. The Sad Fate of This Good Woman and Her Daughter Sincerely Mourned by Her Friends. A well-known ex-May8ville lady, writ ing from Chicago, says : "All Woodlawn mourns Mrs. Frances E Owens and Miss Amy. Not only our beautiful neighbor ing Btreet, but the literati of Chicago all over the city grieve. Clubs and societies of which she waa an honored member and officer have passed resolutions ex pressing their esteem of her and their sorrow at her sad fate. Editress and au thor, yet eminently practical, as those who are fortunate in possessing "Mrs. Owens Cook Book," and Maysville ladies who boarded with her during the World's Fair, can testify. The cultivated daughter of a New Yoik physician she met and married our townsman and old neighbor, so Mays ville has always been proud of her. She and MiBS Amy had, a few months ago, returned from a years' visit to her bod, Guy, at Havraai. They were not burned, but were suffo cated by the fumes of chemicals at the Iroquois Theater holocaust." Mr. and Mrs, Howard T. Cree have re moved from Aubert avenue to 5,153 Kens ington avenue, St. Louis. PASTOR AN INVENTOR. Indiana Methodist Circuit Illilr Ac- uulrcx Great Wcultlt front l'ut- unt lie Hum DcniKiied. From a poor Methodist circuit rider, preaching Sunday after Sunday to small country congregations In Pike and other southern Indiana counties, to a man whose wealth Is roughly esti mated at $500,000, with tho prospect of quadrupling this sum within two years, Is the record Rev. James M. Stafford, of Petersburg, haa made In two years through Inventions ho wrought out of a fertile brain while traveling. Mr. Stafford is only 27 years of age, but ho Is the owner of seven labor saving devices, sTx of which have been patented at Washington, and for each of which ho has been offered and re fused a fortune. Probably his most remarkable Inven tion is a nonreflllablo bottlo, which has been tested thoroughly by manufac turers, and which Is soon to be manu factured by a company organized for tho purpose. After tho first test was made tho minister wa3 offered $100,000 for his patent, but refused. Tho offer was Increased, but he refused to dis pose of tho patent as a whole or even of a controlling Interest. Ultimately he sold a tenth Interest for $10,000, and is to receive a royalty on all the bot tles manufactured. Another of his Inventions Is a non reflllablo bottlo cork, which is closely allied to the nonrefillable hottle, but can bo made to fit any bottle that la manufactured. Still another is an au tomatic monkey wrench which does away with tho screw and thread and adjusts itself automatically to any size. It is said tho wrench can bo manufactured and sold much cheaper than the ordinary article. Mies Rose, of Cowan, Fleming Coun ty, is the gue6t of Mrs. W. I. Jackeon, of East Second street.

To win a wager an English Marquis stood on London bridge and offered Brit ish sovereigns (35) for five shillings ($1 25). He could not find a customer. It's not to be wondered at, the public look askance at any proposition where the proposer is apparently a financial loser, without direct or indirect gain. Fraudulent tcbemers have often been successful and in these days skeptics want better proof than the word of a stranger. No evidence can be stronger than the testimony of friends and neigh bors, of people we know. Here is case of it : Mrs. James Molen, of 210 Lee street, who saya: "Our Bon waa greatly troub led with his kidneys and although he used many remedies nothing brought lasting relief. We learned about Doan's Kidney Pills and his father went to J. Jas. Wood & Son's drug store on West Second and Market streets and got a box for him. Its use proved its great value. We most heartily recommend Doan's Kidney Pills to othets suffering from kidney ailments." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents a box. Foater-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N.

WSiiskey and, IB eer Habit PERMANENTLY CURED 0Y IE ORRINE," A SAFE, SURE AND HARMLESS SPECIFIC Physicians pronounce drunkenness a disease of the nervous system, creating a morbid craving for a stimulant.
