HOW To find OUT.

Fill a bottle or common glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four
hours: a sediment or settling indicates
q diseased condition of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen it is positive
evidence of kidney trouble. Too fire.
uuent desire to urinate or pain in the
back, is also convincing proof that the
kidneys and bladder are out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
There is comfort in the knowledge
so often expressed, that DR. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, the great kiuney remedy
fulflls every wish in relieving pain
in the back. kidneys, liver, bladder
and every part of the urinary passa ges.
II corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad
effect following use of liquor wine or
beer, and overcomes that unpleasant
necessity of being compelled to get up
many times during the night to ur-
nate. The mild and the extraordinary
effect of Swamp Root is soon realized

Schlechter. s. j.. congratulating the knights
on their fifteenth anniversary and hoping
that the organization would continue to
prosper as 1t had done since its foundation:
He dwelt on the advantages of union and
particularly among Catholics it was body
to which any man might be proud to be-
long. 1t aims and objects were the promo
ton of the individual welfare and the fur
therance of Christs gospel.
1t was after noon when the mass was
finished. The different parish societies

THE FUNERAL PROCESSION.
Thousands All Along the Line Showed
fearful Respect to the
Dead Leader.

The procession which accompanied the
remains to Brooklyn was In many respects
the most remarkable ever witnessed In New
York The catafalque was a magnificent
creation of black broadcloth, and at the
base was twelve feet wide. There. were
five steps leading to the top. The horses,
of let black were covered with black silk
mourning and were led by sixteen grooms.
The only emblem on top of the casket was
a small white wreath.
The organizations that paid honor to Mr..
George by following the funeral cars fell
into line from the side streets off Madison
avenue and below Forty-second street
There was some disappointment in the
small number of followers and it was con-
servatfvely estimated that when the party
passed Thirty fourth street on Madison ave-
nue., there were less than $500 men in line.
There were marks of respect all along
the lire. Barred heads were the rule on
both sides of the street and many men and
women were noticed to be crying.
When the Cpen space in front of the ho-
tells in TwLnty-third and Twenty-ffth
streets was reached there was an enormous
here who seemed to be greatly Interested.
for they stood with barred heads from the
time the police appeared until nearly all
the procession had passed them. When the
south side of Union square was reached.
the band that had preceded the catafalque
fell out Of line and taking n stand on the
sidewalk played n dirge while the remain
der of the procession passed, II was
O'Clock when the head Of the column round
ed into Broadway again at Fourteenth
street Here 1t was also noticed that there
was much weeping.
The procession from that point to City
Hall park was without incident save for a
repetition of the scenes of grief which had
been manifested along the entire route.

but will say that the per cent Of sugar
contained in the beets is larger than We
expected. Fifty-three samples out of 124
have shown a per cent that would be profit
able for manufacturing purposes. Some of
the most fertile counties and those prob
ably best adapted to the development Of
the sugar beet industry have sent samples
showing II very lpw per cent of sugar. This
may be due to the fact that the beets grew
too large under the cultivation followed by
the experimenters. and could be corrected
by planting them thicker"

Episcopal church at the morning service
to-day. The announcement had been made
that the doors would open at 1870 o'clock
for the admission of strangers, but before

front doors. BY 1915 o'clock the church
pews We're almost filed by church members
who had been admitted by side door
through the Sunday school room. and five
minutes later the usherS were placing
chairs in the aises. By 1890 every seat was
filled, and hundreds were compelled. to go
away disappointed or stand outside and
content themselves with catching a glimpse
of the presidential party upon their ar
rival.
No attempt had been made at decoration
vases filled with glorious chrysanthemums
on a table in front Of the pulpit.
At 1o:36 Senator Foraker and family,who

pointment at the failure of Mrs. Mckin-
ley to accompany her husband and 1t was
understood that the condition of her health
forbade her attendance.
The services were of the usual order, ex-
cept possibly some addition to the music.
The president joined heartily in the con-
gregational singing. The pastor, Rev. Mr.

AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY COMPELLED
TO BUY AMERICAN WHEAT.
THE CROP REMARKABLY SMALL.
DECREASE OF 60. .OoO. 600 BUSHELS AS
COMPARED WITH 1896.
Export Trade In Cereals Has Ceased
and the Austria-HunEarianS Are
Now Importing In Large
Quantities-Increasin
Flour Trade.

Washington. Oct. 3f.-Secretary Wilson.
of the department OF agriculture. has just
issued a report prepared under his direc-
ton By Frank Fl. Hitchcock. chief of Ihe
section of foreign markets. that gives some
interesting facts relative TO the present
wheat shortage in Austria-HunSary ard
the consequent importation into that coun-
try of American grain. According TO the
United States consul at Reicherhurg. Aus
tria. an importation Of - carloads of
American wheat was made as early as
August. coming by the way OF Hamburg
Other importations were reported among
them one of Is. 80 bushels red winter No.
2 and Kansas wheat, purchased through
the Vienna Produce exchange. After re-
counting these unusual importations Of the
present season. the bulletin presents a
careful review OF the grain situation in
Austria Hungary during the past ten
years. The crops of the present season
are remarkably small. IL the official esti-
mates quoted are fulfillsd. the combined
wheat production or Austria and Hungary
will amount to little more than l30.c1H,ff9
bushels or 5000. 900 bushels short of the
crop harvested in 1896.
Aside from the abnormal conditions Of
the present year. annual statistics of pro-
duction. Importation and expectation dur
ing the decade make II apparent that a
marked change has occurred in the last
few years as regards the grain situation
in Austria Hungary. The tendency of the
various cereals has been toward larger
home consumption of the rational product
and consequent reduction of the surplus
available for shipment to other lands. Most
of the cereals are now brought into tha
country in larger quantities than are ex-
ported. Barley is the only grain of which
any considerable amount continues to be
shipped abroad
In respect to other cereals. the status Of
the monarchy is apparently that of tran
sition from an exporting into an import
| ing country. While 1t Is hardly TO be ex-
| pected. that these changed conditions will.
| to any considerable extent. create an en-
\ larged demand for American cereals. the
| facts set forth are certainly OF interest
| as indicating the lessened Importance of
| Austria-Hungary among the countries
| with which the United States Is obliged 10
| compete in the grain maIts or the word
| The flour trade with Brazil is large and
| increasing. reaching 1l0.934 barrels per an
| mum during 1s9l-95- This increasing hold
| upon the market should be controlled very
| exclusively by the United States miliers.

MOSS FAMINE.
Yellow Fever Cut. on the supply of .
Southern Product Used In
UphOlaterlng.

The yellow fever has stopped the impor-
tation of moss used by furniture and car
riage manufacturers for upholstering pur-
poses. Not one bale of the stuff has been
received here for two weeks. and the mer-
chants who need it In their business are
confronted with a moss famine. Those who
were fortunate enough to have a surplus
supply on hand have realized an immense
profit upon it. Others who are forced TO so
without it seek substitutes in the shape of
excelsior and other material.
St. Louis annually consumes 1n.0n bales
of moss. 1t Is shipped there from the South.
as the demand warrants. and little stock i5
laid up ahead. When the yellow fever set
in those who use the stun to any extent
found their available supply very short:
finally none came at all. 1t was impossible
