HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle of common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty four hours; a sed-
iment or settling indicates diseased COM
dition of the kidneys. When urine stains
linen it is positive evidence OF kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or
pain in the back are also convincing proofs
that the kidneys and bladder are out of
order.

WILL KEEP HAWAII.
United States Marines Are To BE Landed
on the Islands.

Washington, July 14.-The administra-
tion has taken steps to keep its grip on
Hawaii. Any suggestive interference on
the part Of Japan will result in the land
ing of marines and the hosting Of the
American flag with or without the rat
ifcation of the pending annexation
treaty. The administration, realizing
that some crisis might arise while the
treaty still hangs fire In the senate, has
taken steps to be prepared for any emer-
gency. Rear Admiral Beardslee will
have when the next steamer arrives In
Honolulu, instructions giving him pow
er to act at the first sign Of aggression
on the part Of Japan or trouble OF any
kind with which the local authorities
are not able to cope.
Rear Admiral Beardslee will be given
sufficient force to carry out the pro-
gramme that events may force upon him.
1t is definitely settled that the battle
ship Oregon, now en- route to San Fran
cisco from Seattle, will be dispatched to
Hawaii as soon as she can be prepared
for the voyage. This will give Admiral
Beardslee three vessels-the Oregon.
Philadelphia and Marion. Japan has at
present but one vessel in the harbor at
Honolulu-the cruiser Naniwai. She has
has another cruiser at San Francisco
awaiting orders which may take her To
the Hawaiian islands.
