TOPEKA , Kan. , Feb. 21. Judge Hazen of the district court today con tinued the case , of Mrs. Carrie Nation , charged with smashing Murphy's joint , until the April term of court The cases against Eva Harding , Mrs. Hose Crist , Miss Madeline Southard , Mrs. C. Chadwick and C. R. McDowell were . Iso continued. Mrs. Nation en livened the proceedings In her char- astcrlstic way , arising several times ta address the court , each time calling tlio judge "your dishonor. " When asked If she were ready for trial Mrs. Nation , who acts as her own attorney , said : "Your dishonor , I am incapable of trying my case this afternoon , as I have been poisoned by cigarette smoke in the county jail. I want to see how the other cases are tried , anyway. " Judge Hazen looked at the joint smasher in a helpless sort of way and then recognized Captain J. G. Waters , one of the attorneys for the defense. Captain Waters said : "I tried to find f\ out yesterday which of these cases was to come up and I could not. I I find that none of these cases have been placed upon the trial docket. There Is no necessity for this swift vengeance. It is a fair demand that the case be continued. The ordinary procedure of court would be advanced by the giving of proper time. " "It is the province of the court to see that all have a fair trial , " said Judge Hazen. "It is not proper to railroad cases through. I see that if the cases go over until the next term of court that It will be not so difficult to get a jury as it wnl be settle the point of law now. I shall call the Stark case again on Monday morn ing. " . Balf Stark is a young clerk who ac companied the crusaders and assisted in the raid Sunday. Mr. Stark's law yer requested that his case also go ever for this term. "I would prefer to try a man on this charge rather than a woman , " said Judge Hazen. "You may call a special venire if you wish and I think it will be necessary. I expect to try only this one case. " Then Mrs. Nation scored again. She said : "Your dishonor , please , I think it would be better to defer the deci sion as long as possible. " "No , I think it will be better to settle it at once and let the people know what the law is , " said Judge Hazen. "We know the law , " ' said Mrs. Na tion. "It seems that some do not , " re plied Judge Hazen. "Some judges do not know the law , " retorted Mrs. Nation. Miss Madeline Southard and Mrs. Crist , who have been with Mrs. Na tion in the county jail , gave bond for ? 500 each and were released. One of the signers of the bonds was Edward "Wilder , treasurer of the Atchison , To- ? eka & Santa Fe railway. Mrs. Nation ami the others were returned to jail. The indications are that there will he a bitter legal battle over the trials. The attorneys for the defendants will insist that they be granted a change of venue on account of tbe alleged prejudice of Judge Hazen. HOW CHINESE MUST DIE.

For near ly two hours today the senate had under - dor discussion a resolution by Mr. Jones of Arkansas to discharge the judiciary committee from further con sideration of the anti-trust bill passed by the IIOUBO at the last session and to bring it before the senate for con sideration.

At the In stance of the United States govern ment the powers have accepted the principle that no further individual concessions of territory in China shall be sought by any one power without international assent. This agreement applies not only to Tien Tsin , where there has been some rivalry exhibited in the effort to obtain concessions foreign set tlements , but to all other Chinese points. The State department began this movement some time ago. It is surmised , though no admission on that point can be obtained , that the occu pation by Russia of the important concession opposite Tien Tsin , includ ing -the railroad terminus , made the initation of this movement.

For S5.OO Ho Guarantee * to Do That for Which a Lady Offers Him SlOO. Kansas City , Mo. , Feb. 25 , 1901. ( Special. ) Some two years ago a lo cal druggist engaged in a transaction which was in its details somewhat re markable. He was visited by Miss Anna P. Nichols , who had a doctor's prescription for rheumatism , which 'the druggist was filling. In the course of conversation the good lady said : " 1 would give one hundred dollars to get well. " He immediately replied : "Give me five dollars and I will guarantee to cure you. " She agreed , and he at once handed her a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills , say ing : "They are 50c a box. Two boxes may cure you , but I am. quite sure that ten will. " Miss Nichols tells the story as fol lows : "Dodd's Kidney Pills are verit able life preservers. I was troubled for five years with Rheumatism , so that at tmes my right arm seemed paralyzed and I could only walk with difficulty , and could not go out of doors if the air was damp or cold. I took so much medicine that I think my system was poisoned rather than helped. One day when my druggist was putting up a prescription for me I remarked to him that I would give one hundred dollars for a remedy that would make me better. " " 'Give me five dollars and I will guarantee to cure you , ' he said. I readily agreed and be handed me a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills , saying , 'They are 50c a box. Two boxes may cure you , but I am sure that ten will. ' I left my prescription intact and , in stead , took these Pills , and I found them , as I said before , to be veritable life preservers. Before I had finished the second box I had my first perfect night's rest in years. I gradually im proved. I had determined to use the ten boxes before I would give up , but imagine my surprise to find that be fore half tliat quantity was used I was completely cured. This was two years ago , and I have not had a twinge since. " Miss Nichols is Vice Grand Baxter , Rebekah Lodge I. O. 0. F. , and is one of the best known and most highly respected ladies in Kansas City , and her experience will be read with Inter est by her many friends.
