There are some diseases that do not

without taking you with it. But it does
not continue simply us backache. The
urine becomes affected. either too much of
1t or too little, and in either case 1t is ex-
PEELED only with pain, acute pain. Then
comes tho sediment stage, which means

BOGGS WILL NOT RETURN.
Reports That lie VIII Contradictcd by His
Brother, Walter NJ Boggs.

contemplated returning to tell what ne
knew concerning his transactions with
tho bank. and possibly duplicating Others.
were expodad yesterday by his brother.
Walter II. Boggs, who resides in Phila-
delphia.
Mr. Boggs not only emphatically de-
MED that his brother intended to return
or had even evlnoed desire to do so any
one of the few persons who knew of his
whereabouts and were in communication
with him. h. however strongly inti-
mated that tho reports of his intended re-
turn boms originated mainly from per.
sous who were anxious that tho ends OF
justice might be subserved, but with thu
hope that thereby they might make capi-
tai to further their own political ends.
The first OF these stories about the pro- :
posed return of his brother, Mr.. Boggs
SAID. originated about the beginning OF
December last and for four months prior
to that time none of those who had kept
up communication with him had heard Of
him or knew of his whereabouts. Since
then, however be has made known his
whereabouts 10 his wife aud brother, but
has steadfastly refused to return, even
though urged to do SO by both repeatedly.
"Their :inotive," said Mr.. Boggs. lin
wanting him toreturn is that they realize
that 1t is only a question Of time when
his sureties will succeed in running him
down, when the punishment due him will
be meted out, and that 1t would be better
to take that punishment. and be over with
it.
"By doing this" ho continued, "his bro.
ther would be relieved, not only OF the
constant fear of arrest and anxiety cons
cerning his family, but his restoration to
them would be that much sooner accom-
plished." He would not, however, he
said, advise his brothers return II it was
solely to further the political ambition
and schemes of certain Delaware politi-
clans. M

ANOTHER Niger IN THE WOOD PILE.

There Is surely another Niger in the
wood pile from tho manner in which the
Democratic members of City Council re-
fused TO act upon the election of the four
city vaccine physicians on last Thursday
evening. The positions are only worth
500 year and tho old physicians who
served for the past year are still holding
the fort and from present appearances are
likely to for some time to come, unless tho
deadlock is broken. But when that will
DO no ono but Councilman Kane, from the
Fourth,can tell. He holds the key to the

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS
Hawaii Will Occupy the Attention
Of Senators.
A SPEEDY DECISION IMPROBABLE

No Hope That the Discussion WIN Be
Concluded This week-The House
WIN Discuss Our Foreign Relations,
and Especially the Cuban situation.
Washington, Jan. 17.-The Hawaiian
annexation treaty will again occupy
the major portion of the time of the
senate this week. 1t appears improb-
able, however, that the treaty will be
taken up today. There Is unanimous
agreement to the vote upon the immi-
grafton bill during today, and it is al
together probable that this vote will
be preceded by some discussion of the
merits of the bill The friends of the
measure are confident of its passage,
but they are not very hopeful of get
ting it through without further debate.
= Senator Wolcott has given notice of
his intention to address the senate to-
day, when he will make report of the
transactions of the recent International
bimetallic commission. Mr.. Wolcott
has never given extended public utter
ance concerning the commissions work.
and there is very general interest mani
tested as to the course he may pursue
in his speech.
When the senate resumes considera-
tion Of the Hawaiian treaty Senator
Morgan will take the floor, and will
consume at least another day with the
presentation Of his views on annexa-
tion. He will be followed by Senators
Pettigrew and White in opposition to
the treaty and by other senators for
and against 1t. There Is no hope that
the discussion will be concluded during
the week. A great many senators wish
to speak, and as long as the result of
the vote is as uncertain as at present,
neither side will be disposed to allow
the vote to be taken.
The senate has agreed to vote on the
confirmation of Attorney General Nc
Kenna as associate justice of the su-
preme court on Friday next, and the
probabilities are that this vote will be
preceded by some discussion as to Mr.
McKenna's merits.
The urgent deficiency appropriation
bill will be reoorted today, ana there
may be an effort to secure Its consider
alton during the week.
The house Is likely to become the
arena for general discussion of our
foreign relations in connection with the
consideration of the diplomatic and
consular Appropriation bill during the
present week. The Cuban situation, the
annexation of Hawaii and the designs
of the European powers toward China
will, of course, be the principal topics
to attract attention. The house man
ayers do not want an extended debate
on Cuba precipitated at this time, but
the minority is determined to press the
question during the consideration of
this bill. They believe the time is par
ticularly opportune, owing to the anti
autonomy riots in Havana.

monia. and recovered rapidly till two
weeks ago, when, he suffered from
urasmic convulsions. From that re-
lapse he never fully recovered. His
body was sent to Washington today.
Benjamin Butterworth was born in
Warren county. Ohio Oct, 90, 1887. and
was of Quaker ancestry. His early edu-
cation was acquired in the common
schools. and when still a boy he en-
tered the law office of Durbin Ward, in
Cincinnati. At the outbreak of the war
he enlisted, and attained the rank Of
major. He was elected to the Ohio
state senate in 1873 and was afterward
elected TO the Forty-first and four sue
ceeding congresses. He was commits
sioner of patents first during the >ad
ministration of Garfield and Arthur,
and his record made then and subse-
quently had great weight with Presi-
dent Mckinley in selecting him for that
position. He was made secretary Of
the Worlds fair project early in the
inception of that great enterprise at
Chicago. and worked along in that ca
paclty until its close.
