PRoPosED INYEsTIaArIoN

The resolution introduced in the State
Senate providing for the appointment of a
committee to inquire into the condition of
the mine workers of the bituminous and
anthracite regions, passed that body and now
goes to the House, and thence to the Cover
nor for his signature. The fate of the
measure in the lower body is in doubt, and
information comes from Harrisburg to the
effect that the Governor is opposed to the
investigation upon the ground that it can
result in mo- benefit to the suffering miners
and should it pass the House that it will not
receive his signature,
Tho fact that the coliicres i'm this region
have been working but one and two days a
week, for some time past, Is sufficient evil
dence for the members Of the legislature as
to the condition of the miners, without
further investigation The representatives
from the coal regions have, or at least SHOULD
have, personal knowledge Of the con, ition
OF their constituents and they will learn
nothing by junketiug trip 40 the expense of
the taxpayers, whoare already overburdoued
with taxes. The miners and business men
will welcome any movement tending to better
the present condition of affairs; but they
fail to see anything i'm the proposed inyesti-
cation tending 10 that end.
It is not necessary 10 inquire into the
causes they are generally known. The de-
preston that exists effects the coal trade, as
well as other industrial centres and this in
turn results i'm the miners present condition.
Speaking upon this subject the WilkesbaTe
Record says Such committee cannot
accomplish any earthly thing that viii bring
relief to distressed labor; however searching
its inquiry it cannot give days work to the
unemployed, nor add a penny to the com
penMtion of those who have employment.
II cannot increase the production Of coal by
a single ton, nor add cent to the price of

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill bottle or common water glass with
urine and let it stand twenty-four hours a
sediment or settling indicates diseased con.
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, is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.

There is comfort IN the knowledge so often
expressed that DR.. Kilmcrs Swamp-Root,

in relieving pain in the back, kidneys, liver,

sages 1t corrects inability to hold urine and
scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects fol-
lowing use of liquor wine or beer, and over
comes that unpleasant necessity of being
compelled to get up many times during the
night to urinate. The mild and the cx-
tnordinary effect of Swamp Root is soon
realized. 1t stands the highest for its wonder

IT viii be noticed that, while Congress
may not hesitate to deal with the appro-
priation bills and repair the errors made by
its predecessor and the late Administration
in other relations President Mckinley is
careful to avoid mention in his excellent
message of any other subject to be con-
sidered beyond the provision Of a sufficient
revenue, That is the fundamental condition
Of national prosperity. He has maintained
it from the first, and has pledged himself to
secure q return of good times through the
agency Of a well balanced and revenue rails
inptarifr To this line of action, moreover
NiC must be said the Repu blican party, now in
such strong control Of the government, is
so committed The tariff is, for the time
being, once more the theme Of the hour, and
to its earnest solution Congress must give full
and if possible, exclusive attention. By the
time that subject is disposed of the business
of the country will be ready to take full ad-
vantage Of its improved surroundings and
prepare for the great era Of prosperity
awaiting it.

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man Offers to Send His Dis
covery Free.
Claims to Be a Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.

There is always more OF less suspicion
attached TO anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man SO OyerlOws with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered
II is upon this principal that a resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich, desires to send free 10
mankind prescription which will cure them
Of any form Of nervous debility relieves
them Of all the doubt and uncertainty which
such men arc peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigOr. As it
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped 20 realize what might be
the final result, ought to be deeply interested
in a remedy which will restore them TO
health, strength and vigOr, without which
they continue to live an existence Of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective i'm
restoring TO men the strength they need. il
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such remedy at once, A request to H. @.
Olds, Box 17l2, Kalamazoo, Mich, stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
out Of idle curiosity, but that you wish TO
make use Of the medicine by giving tia trial,
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came from
The prescription is sent free and although
seme may wonder how Mr.. Olds can afford TO
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the ofer being genuine. Cut this out
and send TO Mr.. Olds so that he may know
who you came TO write him. 122S-7st

THE MINOR CONTESTS.


Hawkins Won in Sixty-four Seconds and
Green IN Eleven Rounds.
Carson, New. March 1S.-The Flah-
erty-Hawkins fight, the first of the
two minor contests, was set for 8
o'clock, but it was 4 before the men
entered the ring At that time there
were about 1,500 people present. Both
men were weighed in at 1928 pounds.
The fight was soon over There was
one exchange of blows, a clinch and a
knockout, Flaherty going down as II
he had been shot. 1t was all over in
one minute and four seconds. At the
call of time Hawkins lost no time In
going at his man. He swung his left
hard on Flaherty's jaw, and the lat
ter countered on the body. Then they
clinched hanging on to each other for
a few seconds. After the breakaway
Hawkins landed a right swing on
Flaherty's jaw, and followed the same
in an instant with a left swing on the
same place. Flaherty fell over back
wards, with his head striking the floor
with great force. He laid perfectly
still and was counted out. Then his
seconds carried him from the ring.
The fight between Mysterious" Billy
Smith and George Green, welter-
weights, followed Immediately. Smith
had the worst of 1t until the end Of the
eleventh round, when he gave up the
fight, saying that his arm had been
broken in the fourth round It was no
ticeable that Smith refrained from
using his left arm, which had been
broken three months ago, and he could
only land an occasional right swing.

nave lost thousands OF dolrars on that
blow"
Meanwhile the trainers were working
with their man. His pallid face and
the nervous twitchings Of his limbs
gave fear at the time that he had been
seriously injured. Gradually his nerve
and strength came back to him, but
with it came mental agony which he
made no attempt to conceal.
1T was a chance blow" said White;
"just what is likely to occur in any
fight We have nothing to regret, ex-
cept that the blow landed. The mans
condition was all right"
Neither Delaney nor McVey would
discuss the defeat. The ex-champion's
brothers remained with him until his
carriage arrived, vainly attempting to
give him some sort Of cheer,
"Oh, it's no use, boys" Jim replied
to their encoura cement. IT'S all over
now, and I have allowed Fitzsimmons
to hit me a rap under which 1 was
counted out. 1t was an awful blow.
1 thought it had killed." and the big
pugilist leaned his head on Whites
shoulder and sobbed aloud. Time and
again he started to his feet with the
avowed intention that he would find
Fitzsimmons and whip him on the
street, but each time his knees gave
way beneath him, and he sank back
into his seat white and breathless.
1t was half an hour after the end of
the battle before Corbett could be in
duced to enter the carriage for the
drive to his hotel. The ride braced
him to some extent, and he was more
cheerful when he reached his room.

a man will only take proper care of himself
he viii really be safer frotu consumption
than a careless person who has no inherited

Carelessness will develop a tendency to

The lungs are composed of very delicate,

Hundreds of cases Of so-called "heredi-
tafY" consumption have been completely
al permanently rooted out of the system
by Or. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
simply because it gives the blood making
yla lds power to pour a fresh abundant sup
