minutes were lost. 1t CHANGED that the
very hour BeauchaInp had selected for
his night trip through the city was
when the watches of the police force had
just been changed, and he began to en-
counter all the so or 60 policemen who
were on their way home. Nearly every
one of them stopped him and he was
obliged to explain himself and his
COW. He was getting mad, but he
would not show it. Finally he reached
the city barracks, where Capt. Thomp-
son and several other officers were sit
ting out on the sidewalk. They hailed
him, and Capt. Thompson asked:
"What will you take for that cow,
mister?"
Beauchamp mopped his dripping
brow as he replied: 81 knowyou want
to ask me what am doing out on the
streets at this time of night with COW.
So just ask it,"
"Well, that's what will do" replied
the police captain. And Beauchamp for
about the fortieth time explained the
situation.
81 don't think you will ever get that
COW home," remarked Capt. Thompson,
gravely, "for you will have to pass four
or five more policemen on Marietta
street."
'Good Lord!" exclaimed Beauchamp,
"rve a good notion 10 give the blamed
COW away. She has already cost me
more trouble than she is worth. 1t has
got so that she stops every time she
sees policeman"
He was allowed to proceed on his way,
and in about ten minutes there came
ring at the telephone. The call officer
answered the ring, and turning to Capt.
Thompson he said:
"An officer has found a strange man
driving COW through the street."
That's Beauchamp in more trouble"
the captain said; "just tell the officer
that the stranger has a passport"
It is presumed that Beauchamp and
his COW got home all right some time
before breakfast But he will doubtless
never undertake to drive another COW
through. Atlanta at night.

Mr.. Dawes was born in Marietta, o.,
August 81. 1865, and graduated from
Marietta c, lege in 1884, and from the
Cincinnati law school in 1886. During
his college days he acquired the profess

vacations at that work, becoming the

was then known as the Marietta, Co

part of the Toledo & Ohio Central sys-
tenn.
In 1887 he left Ohio for Lincoln, Neb.,
where he became prominent as lawyer
and business man. He was a leader in
the discussion of the freight schedules
of Nebraska about the time of and after
the passage of the interstate commerce
law. He was also student of financial
questions, and in 1894 published book
entitled The Banking System of the
United States and Its Relations to the
Money and Business of the Country"
He has been for many years national
bank director. In 1898 he became res
ident of Evanston, ILL.,, having become
interested in the Northwestern Gas &
Coke company, of that place.
He was the leader in the Mckinley
movement in Illinois, which ended in in
structions for Mckinley at the Spring
field convention. He was then appoint
ed by NJ. A. Hanna as member from
Illinois of the executive committee o!
the republican national committee. Mr..
Dawes is president of the gas companies
of Akron, o.; Lacrosse, Wis, and Evan

who was one of the commanders of the
iron brigade in the late war.

Charles G. Dawes is to be comptroller
of the currency. He admitted the other
day that he had been rendered and had
accepted the appointment. Mr.. Dawes
then continued:
Il have much regretted the publicity
which has unavoidably attached to the

to the inference that had some desire
or expectation of succeeding Mr.. Eckels

kinson's figures arecorrect, but the whole
lot appear to have iuggled and used the
figures so far as TO show up their own
points.
Senator Merriman introduced bill Tor
the taxing OF theee roads. Ii passed the
senate, the house amended il by very
considerable increase; when il went back
TO the senate they would not accept the
amendments and consequently a confer
ence comm tteewas appointed, who made
report which so far has been accepted
by the senate and will probably be by the
hOn-e today. when il will. il is hoped, be
s;gnei by the governor, as half loaf is
certainly better than none.
AryoDe. IRON the course this taxation
nAtter has taken, can easily see that the
governor was correct in his statement
that the railroads were not paving
their proper proportion OF the taxes.

never have passed the senate. For that
body by its passage admitted the fact.
although they were evidently determined

this they have emineutly succeeded

will really be the meaus of having the

A Boys Religious Instruction.

Laurence Hutton, contributing "a series
of recollcctions of his boyhood days, under
the title of "A Boy Knew, " to st. Nicho.
las, says; All the boys religious training
was received at home, and almost his first
textbook was 1.-The Shorter Catechism, -

Governor Pingree aud Railroad Tax
alton.

The News, although not agreeing with
the mode OF procedure adopted in very
many instances by the governor, believes
that he is most assuredly honest in bis
endeavor to see that the railroads pay
their proportion of taxes, which they now
are certainly not doing, and in order to
call attention to the state of affairs has
issued a special message to the legislat-
ure upon this subject. Senator Thomp-
son has thought proper to accuse the
governor OF purposelv making many mis-
statements in such message and in a
speech delivered before the senate, and
made apparently in the interest of the
railroads, answered, as he supposed, the
governors statements, and the senate
very wrongly, as it appears to the News,
ordered several thousand copies struck
oil at the expense Of the State; surely the
railroad lobby, which has, no doubt, all
the money necessary at its command,
should have been at this expense instead
oil the State. The governor, in reply.
says that the figures in his message are
correct, as they were prepared by one OF
the best experts in the State and thor
oughly examined before they we're pub
llshed. BE this as it may, 1t would look
as II Senator Thompson were not very
consistent, for Notwithstanding the fact
that he and many of bis brother senator's
are crying out that the railroads are al
most bankrupt and cannot afford cut
in their rates, they go to work and raise
the taxes to be paid by these sad pow
ertv stricken railroads.
Representative Atkinson has come out
with statement and says that Governor
Pingree's figures are absolutely correct,
as he has verified them with the commits
sioner's report, while, on the other hand,
Senator Thompson has iuggled with his
figures, for the table be introduced in his
speech and which he accused the COVER
nor OF overlooking, never, according to
Representative Atkinson. existed, as he
claims "the table has beeen manufactured
for Senator Thompson by the railroad
companies and he seeks to impose it upon
the people OF the State as a table in act
ual existence and contained in the official
reports OF 1896"
The editor has verified the governors
figures by the commissioners report and
finds them correct, although it appears
to the News that the governor has very
unfairly omitted in the case OF the Mich.
gan Central to do IA he did in the Lake
Shore and deduct from the net income the
amount paid out for rental OF leased lines
and interest on funded debt, which would
reduce the balance applicable to dividends
to $T61, 272.S1, instead, az might be
supposed by the governors message, $3,-
46S. 1890, which was the net income.
Why the word "de6cit" should be used
here in the report Is scarcely ineligible.

II IS EASY TO TELL.

People who fail to look after their health
are like the carpenter who neglects to sharpen
his tools. People are not apt to get anxious
about their health soon enough. If you are
"not quite well" or ''half sick have you
ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness?
It's easy to tell by setting aside your urine
for twenty-four hours a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is
evidence Of kidney trouble. Too frequent
desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull
ache in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are ont of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root, full
fills every wish in relieving weak or diseased
kidneys and all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp-Root give
new life and activity to the kidneys-the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts
as a tonic for the entire constitution. If you
need a medicine take Swamp-Root-itc cures.
