The Surprise of All.

James Jones, of the drug firm of
Jones 81 Son. Cowden, ILL.,, in speak
ing of DR.. Kings New Discovery, says
that last winter his wife was attacked
with Ia grippe, and her case grew SO
serious that physicians at Cowden and
Pana could do nothing for her. 1t
seemed to develop into hasty con-
sumption. Having DIR. Kings New
Discovery in store, and selling lots of
it, he took bottle home, and to the
surprise of all she began to get better
from first dose, and half dozen dollar
bottles cured her sound and well. Dr.
Kings New Discovery for consump-
ton, coughs and colds is guaranteed
to do this good work. Try it. Free

The concerts of Sousa and his band
are always welcome events of the

mean brilliant and appreciative audi

Philip Sousa an artistic temperament.
grace and intelligence. as well as a
subtle magnetism that appeals to
both eye and heart. No matter whose
work he is conducting. the capability
to do justice is amply proved. His
knowledge of Instrumentation is thor

Sousa never permits over-elaboration
or inconsistent coloring. The SOusa

artists Mr.. Sousa has always been
particularly fortunate, and on the

DOES YOUR BACK ACHE
Or Are Your Nerves Fidsety

This is not an imPudent question.
You would pay your doctor 30 cents
or 81 to ask you the same thing with
few more questions, and think it all
right.
We ask the question, charge moth
ing, then sell you 4 box of Morrow ;
Kid-ne-oids for half dollar, and let
YOU get over it. There is no remedy
on the market which strikes the blow
at nervousness and backache as does
Morrow's Kid-ne- odds. They are not
n nerve duller, either, but a nerve
strengthened. Beware of nerve dull
ers. They contain some strong mar
cotics which braces you up now and
leaves you worse tomorrow. Kid-ne-
odds destroy the germ that is killing
the nerves. and the nerves turn back
and grow strong again. When you
have pain in your head, back, limbs
and body you may depend upon it that
something is radically wrong with
YOUR nerves.

Kid-ne-oids at Frank Nader Il Co. s

Morrow's Kid-ne-oids are yellow tall

Baseball Property to Be Disposed Of
Probable Purchasers.
The amphitheatre and fence at the
Rock Island baseball park will be dis
posed of next Saturday under chat
tel mortgage held by Horst G. Peter
son. the building contractors. An
agreement has been entered into be-
tween Louis IA. Salzmann. l.. q. Eddy
and Henry W. Horst for the purchase
of the material, their plan being to
renew the lease and allow the park to
remain intact with view to renting
it for baseball and other athletic and
sporting purposes.
1t is very evident, to Judge from
expressions daily heard upon the
streets, that Rock Island desires a
continuation of the national game
next season, and it only remains for
the proper effort to be put forth in
order to secure it. The directors of

The trial of the two Flynns and Ed

Henry and Florence Jefferson. the
colored couple, were found guilty of
petty larceny by jury yesterday
afternoon, the verdict being returned
after several hours deliberation.
They were indicted for robbery, and
hence escape the penitentiary. The
JefTersons claim to be man and wife.
The crime of which they stand con-
victed was committed at the Owl sa-
loon on Seventeenth street, the vic
tim, Jesse Holmes, 4 member of the
Ottawa police force. coming here to
attend the State Liquor Dealers con-
vention. Holmes admitted on the
witness stand that he had imbibed
rather freely of corn juice on the day
of the robbery. evidently for the pur-
pose of showing that he was not such

fingered gentry when in possession of

millionaires, who are confident that in
these finds they have as big mines as
any to be found in the district, the
indications being that they are right in
the premises, as the lodges are very
large and crop boldly, the quartz car
rying values of from s. to $133 in free
milling gold, the yellow metal existing
in flakes and small nuggets, the gold
being the coarsest that has ever been
found in the camp.
This makes two important discover
les to be recorded within the last six
weeks in the district. outside of the
original finds in the camp, and the i'm
preston is gaining ground that other
surprises are in store for the residents
and claimholders of that locality.
The snowfall at Nelson during the
past two weeks has been very heavy.
and the weather has been extremely
cold, making outdoor work very dis
agreeable, but it will not be long before
prospecting will be renewed with in

months a change for the better will be
observable all over the district.

MR.. WoLCoTT SEVERELY AR
RAIGNED GAGE.
Political and Economic Measures
Which Meet the Goldbug's Disap-
proval, Are Treated F1ippantly.

Washington, March 30.-Permission
was granted by the senate today for
the foreign relations committee to sit
during the sessions of the senate. Fol-
lowing the action, the resolution pro-
viding for the recognition of the indie
pendence of Cuba, introduced yester-
day by Mr.. Allen of Nebraska, was, at
the request of Mr.. Frye of Maine, re-
ferred to the foreign relations commit
tee without debate. Beyond those two
points no reference was made by the
senate to the Cuban question. Mr..
Caffery of Louisiana concluded his
speech on the national quarantine bill,
after which the measure making fur
Their provision for a civil government
of Alaska was passed.
Mr.. Wolcott of Colorado, chairman of
the committee on pOstofficeS and post
roads, made a remarkable and caustic
arraignment of the secretary of the
treasury on account of the secretary s
fiippant treatment of a report made by
Wolcott's committee. Mr.. WolcOtt said
that on March 10 the committee on
postofficeS and post roads had asked
the secretary of the treasury for his
opinion on a postal savings bank sys-
TEN. \ similar communication had
been sent to the postmaster general and
a courteous and extended reply in due
time had been received.
The views of the secretary of the
treasury upon the question were par
ticularly desired by the committee. as
it was expected that some opinions of
value would be presented.
After waiting for an unusual time,
the committee, Mr.. WOlcott. said, had
received the secretary's reply.
L have to report to the senate" said
he, that the reply was of such a ma
ture that 1 have been unanimously in
structed by the committee TO respect
fully return it. Before it was sent to
the committee it was given to the news
papers. 1t was not of a character in
consonance with the Importance of the
subject The whole circumstances of
the case are remarkable. 1 will not ask
here to have the letter Of the secretary
read. 1t was f1ippant and impertinent
and has no place on the records of. this

Mr.. Wolcott then asked that the en-
tire correspondence on the subject be
printed, and it was so ordered.

The Galena and Utah.

Mr. Franklin, the representative of
the Fairbanks & Morse company, of
Denver, left yesterday for Fish Springs,
for the purpose of installing the new
gasoline hoist and compressed air plant
at the Galena mine, ard it is expected
the works will be ready to start within
ten days, after which regular and
heavy ore shipments are looked for
from this valuable producer.
The Utah mine, the companion of the
Galena, and largely owned by the same
people, has carload of very high grade
ore on the road the silver contents of
which will run from IS to over $50 ounces
to the ton, while the lead values also
run well.
The new working shaft being sunk on
the Utah is now down TO depth of %
feet, ard the latest report from the
mine is to the effect that the formation
in the bottom is highly mineralized.
The Utah is also to have new gaso-
line hoist. and in making excavations
at the mouth of the new shaft for the
foundations for the new works, some
rich ore was uncovered almost at the
grass roots.
Both the Utah and Galena have rec
ords as dividend payers, and as soon as
the new Improvements are completed.
it is believed that they will eclipse ali
former efforts in this direction, and that
the amount of monthly dividends will
be materially increased.

At the board meeting of the directors
of the Northern Light Mining company
held yesterday morning, the resigna-
ton of Superintendent Frank Hines
was considered and accepted, to take
effect April 10, and R. G. Legg was
appointed as his successor.
1t has been known in mining circles
for some time that Mr.. Hines wished
20 be released from his position, but
as there has been some difficulty IN
finding a capable man to take his
place, he has held on until the present
time. and he is confident that when he
turns the management of the property
over to his successor it will be IN con-
dition SO that it viii be clear sailing
with everything in shape for the sue
cessful operation of the mine and mill,
as it is hoped and believed that by the
10Th of April the pipe line, which has
been frozen UP for the past three or
four months, viii be thawed out and
ready Tor use once again.
Mr.. Legg has the reputation OF being
a thorough, experienced and successful
mining man. and has the endorsements
of many of the leading mining and
business men of the state, and in TAX
ing this position he has the well wishes
Of his many friends, besides the legion
who are interested in the property as
stockholders in the company.
Mr.. Hines has been with the North
ern Light almost ever since the incor-
poration of the company. He has done
much more in the development of the
mine than most people are aware of,
and yet his real services have been
initiated against by unforeseen OBJ
stacles and hindrances. concerning
which the public at large has but a
slight conception. He is capable
man. and retires from his position with
the esteem and good will of the officers
of the company.
As stated elsewhere in these columns,
Northern Light made rapid strides up
ward yesterday, and in certain circles
the cause was ascribed to reports to
the effect that rich strike had just
been made in the mine, but the officers
of the company, when approached yes
terday on the subject, denied having
any knowledge of any strike and had
not heard anything regarding it, if it
We're true.
However. it is stated that an i'm
mense amount of ore is blocked out in
the mine. and that as soon as the mill
can be started up a most successful
run is anticipated.

The object of Mr.. McLeod's visit to
Salt Lake was for the purpose of pro-
curing additional betting for the saw
mill just installed in the camp, which
is now in operation. and cutting about
5000 feet of lumber daily, but which,
with additional betting. will turn out
at least 5000 feet a day.
Mr.. Mcleod states that a portion OF
the machinery for the new 30-stamp
mill is now on sthe ground. and that
the balance is in transit. so that it will
not be long before the plant will be in
operation, and the first consignment OF
gold bricks from the camp will find
their way to this city.

terested in the building of the line west
ward from this place, stated last even
ing that uD to date nothing had been
done, but that he would leave this
morning for a ten days visit to San
Francisco, and hoped to be able on his
return to announce something of in
terest to the people here concerning the
project.
While Mr.. Allen would say nothing
concerning his plans. it is believed an
effort will be made to get the people of
the coast interested in the building of
the line and that perhaps the same can
be done soon. San Francisco has grOan-
ed through its press for years, concern
ing the treatment accorded il by the
Southern Pacific, and it is thought here
that some of the moneyed men there
might be induced to make an effort to
alleviate the conditions complained Of
by subscribing to a fund for the con-
struction OF q rival line.
Mr.. Allen would say nothing concern
ing this matter however, and the state
ments made do not come from him. His
plans are unknown to any save him

ence yesterday with Hon. George Q.
