KIDNEY TROUBLES.
)ns To Many Causes, But Always with
One Result, A Life Of Agony Fraught
with Horror, Death.

There are many people to-day who are
unknowingly suffering from some severe
kidney disease. This dreaded trouble should
not be neglected. Swollen joints, pains in the
small of the back, watery sacs under the eyes,
general bloating of the entire body a loss of
appetite seeplessness and nervousness are q
few of the many symptoms that attend this
awful affection. The blood becomes filled with
the germs of the disease and carries it to other
parts of the body, so that when patient suffer-
ing from this trouble dies, the entire body is
found to be filled with disease cells. Do not
hesitate or experiment if you are in this con-
dition. You cannot begin too soon to look for
help. Take at once that greatest and surest of
cures, Kickapoo Indian Sagwa. Thousands
attest its value for this trouble.

TRADING STAMPS.
Indignation Meeting Called This After
nOOns

There is an extensive movement among
the retail merchants of Portland to throw
of the trading stamp yoke, and mass
meeting has been called for this after
noon at 2. 80 o'clock at Reception hall. The
business has assumed proportion never
dreamed of when the merchants agreed to
give stamp with every ten cents worth
OF cash sales, and to keep this process up
for year. The merchants who went
into 1t are in many cases complaining
OF the cost of the plan, while those who
do not have the system find that it takes
away from them some custom. So the
system is not generally popular with the
merchants. The customers like it quite
we'll, many of them becoming quite en-,
thusiastic in the collection Of the 900
stamps which give the prize.
The merchants would in many cases
like to get out of their contracts, and
will probably allege that they were led
Snto their contracts through misrepresen.
tation.
The managers of the trading starnp
company will vigorously combat such
efforts. Messrs. Soldiers g. Chase have
been engaged as their counsel, and will
make vigorous resistance to any effort
to break the contracts

HoNoRs FOR NANsEN.
The Explorers Reception in New York and
His Response.

New York, October 23.-Dr. Nansen:
the Arctic explorer, who arrived today
on the Lucania. was given reception
this evening at Chickering hall, by the
American Geographical Society. The
hall was nearly filled with an assemblage
of people of the most distinguished ap-
pearance. Many of the people best known
in literary, scientific and also IL the
social circles of the city were present.
DIR. Nansen was presented a gold med
al, which bears the inscription: Award
ed to Fridtjof Nansen for his voyage in
the Fran and his sledge journey in the
open polar sea to Sc degrees, IA minutes.
1893-I896."
DIR. Nansen replied briefly, thanking
the society for the honor conferred upon
him. He spoke in very fair English.
lie said that he was especially glad to
receive such an honor from society
in country which had SO many explorers
and scientists. He had been on shore
but few hours, however, and he had
not known that he was to be at recep-
ton, so he could not undertake to speak
at length. He might, however, briefly
refer to the results obtained by his expe-
dition.
1--WE went on theory" he said, land
1t turned out almost exactly as 1t had
oeen planned before hand. l may say
mat the polar problem is to some extent
at least, really solved. There is deep
sea at the north. That is established,
ana there is not an immovable cover OF
ice at that part of the earth, as was FORM
erly supposed. Indeed there, is only thin
layer of ice, q or Is feet thick, while the
aepth OF the sea is about 1000 fathoms.
Probably the pole is in the same sea. -
Lieut.. Peary also made an address of
"eioome. He referred in glowing terms

MIR. WENTWORTH IMPROVING.

Mr.. A. S. Wentworth, who was thrown
from his carriage Saturday forenoon on
Forest avenue and injured about the head
and shoulders, and. afterwards taken to
the Eye and Ear Infirmary, was reported
yesterday as improving, the only difficulty
being the lameness of his shoulder. The
cuts on the head are not as severe as ii
was at first thought they would be. Mr..
Wentworth will probably be able to re-
turn to his home in day or so.
Mr.. Worster of the. firm of .Worster and
Wilson, the contractors as soon as he
learned of the accident to Mr.. Wentworth
looked after the interest Of the injured
man and saw that everything was done
for his comfort. Mr.. Worster late Satur-

Mr.. Levi Cummings, the city electric
ian, whose name had been brought into
evidence by Mr.. Gallagher, was called
upon by Mr.. Leighton and he said TINT he
did not believe the city teams had hauled
away any of this material from the tele-
graph poles on Portland street. If they
had hauled away any of this material it
was not more than a buShel basket full
at the most and this was only such ma
terial as had been left over by the teams
engaged to do the work and it was the
duty of the city teams to haul this ma
terial away to clear the streets.
Mr.. Dammery testified that Mr.. Staples
had done some work by contract for The
| jefferson theatre when it was being con.
structed. Staples had his own teams at
work on the private property and the city
teams were at work about the same time
in the streets in the vicinity. Mr.. Leigh
ton said he believed that this was very
commendable thing for Mr.. Staples tc
do. The streets should have been fixed
about the theatre before it was opened.
81 believe that you are stakeholder In
the new theatre, are you not, MIR. Leigh
toni" asked Mr.. Rounds.
II am, am proud to say" replied Mr..
leighton, but don't own any stock in
4 the Gaiety theatre"
| This raised laugh among the specta.
| tors.
"Well, do own stock in the Gaiety. u
said Mr.. Rounds, "and I am not ashamed
of it,
| At this point John Corners, a payer,
was called. He testified that he had tried
to secure work at paving from the city,
| but could not get any although he was
citizen and tax payer. He said that
the city needed PAYERS, but had employed
men who were neither citizens nor tax
payers. Mr. Staples had denied him
work when he asked for 1t.
During the course of the evidence it
came out that the witness had told Mr..
Staples something once when Mr.. Rounds
was trying TO get the nomination as al
derman In Ward 3, and since that time
Mr.. Staples had not liked the witness
and had refused him work on this ao-
count.
"What was it that caused Mr.. Staples
to dislike you?" asked Alderman Leigh
ton. ----n
The witness hesitated about answering
until AldermanER Rounds told him "to
spit it out, don't care.
well" said the witness, Mr.. Rounds
had given Mr.. Shapes money to help him
get the nomination, and Staples had used
this money to defeat Rounds instead of
to help him. I told Staples what 1
thought of this transaction and he didn't
like what said.''
What was this money to be used for?''
asked Mr.. Leighton.
1t was to be used to buy votes to help
me get the nomination" said Alderman
Rounds. "that's what 1t was to be used
for. We pay for our votes in Ward as
they do in many other wards in the city.
In Ward believe they buy votes at
caucuses with beer. The sheriff will
seize beer in Ward 8 which Is going to be
used at caucus, but he don't seize it
when it is to be used in Ward ~
Alderman ROunds's statements brought
down the house and the spectators con-
sidered what he had said as very funny
and laughed for some time over it.
This practically ended the investiga-
tion and the committee having listened
to Gen. Mattocks's argument and dis
cussed the matter tor some time, ad-
journed without taking action.
