Women Should Know 1t.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because the nature of their disease is
not correctly understood. They have been
led to believe that womb trouble or female
weakness of some sort is responsible for the
many ills that beset womankind.
Neuralgia, nervousness, headache, puffy
or dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism, a
dragging pain or dull ache in the back, weak
ness or bearing down sensation, profuse OF
scanty supply of urine with strong odor,
frequent desire to pass it with scalding or
burning sensation, sediment in it after stand
ing in bottle or common glass for twenty -four
hours, are signs of kidney and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attributed
by the patient herself or by her physician to
female weakness or womb trouble. Hence, so
many fail to obtain relief, because they are
treating, not the disease itself, but reflection
Of the primary cause, which is kidney trouble.
In fact, women as well as men are made
miserable with kidney and bladder trouble
and both need the same remedy.
DIR. Kilmer's Swamp Root Is the great dis
covery of the eminent kidney and bladder
specialist, and is easy to get at any drug store
for fifty cents or one dollar.
To prove its wonderful merits you may
have a sample bottle and book telling all
about it, both sent absolutely free by mail.

A Plucl<y Ameritau Who Killed Two
Mexican Highwaymen,
Terra Haute, Ind, Nov. 21.-Morton
Hudson, of this city, has just arrived
from Mexico, where he has been in
prison for over half a year. Last Feb
ruary Hudson and a friend named
Powell went on prospecting tour near
Toluca, Mexico. They were returning
from the town of Vereguera, where
they had been to purchase supplies for
their camp, when they were set upon
by two Mexican hlghwaymen. One of
the Mexicans clapped a pistol to Pow
ellis head, but the American grabbed
his assallant and the two fell from
their horses. The second Mexican, who
was armed with a naked machete, was
in the act of plunging it into Powelrs
back when Hudson brought him to the
ground with a well directed shot.
The first Mexican was rapidly over
powering Powell. when the latter called
for help. Hudson went to his assist
ance, when the highwayman aimed his
pistol at the advancing man. Hudson
was too quick, however, and shot the
man through the breast. The two
Americans then concealed themselves
In the mountains until they finally de-
cided TO surrender to the Mexican au-
thorities. Hudson was thrown in jail
at Tenacingo but finally got a letter
to his brother in this city and the au-
thorities in Washington secured his
trial and release.
Ex-Secretary of the Navy Richard
w. Thompson. w. r. McKeen, Sena-
tor Fairbanks and Congressman Faris
were instrumental in securing proper
treatment for Hudson. He Is thin and
pale from his confinement, but is other
wise in good health.

Received Their Orders,

THE testimony of DIR. Forwood,
Chief Surgeon at Camp Wikoff, be-
fore the War Investigation Board,
that he knew of instances in which
reporters had received orders tC
''roast everything" shows how the
yellow press views its undoubted duty
to the people. With preconceived
and self-interested grievances against
the Administration officials, these
newspapers sent reporters to the
camp, not to report what they saw,
but deliberately to pick flaws in
everything roast indiscrimin-
ately, and the sum total of their eff
forts is the great howl which went up
against the conduct of the war.
1t is small wonder that the investi-
CATION has resulted in discovering
nothing to bear out these charges.
The reporters, under obligations to
roast, or lose their positions, did
the best they could-which was at
best very little-and it only requires
the calling OF few witnesses to
riddle all the talk OF gross incom
potency, crying abuse and inhumaI
favoritism.
There has never been any denial o
the fact that mistakes were made
the Administration officials were only
human after all-but in the mair
they discharged their duties ably, and
no one denies this now except thos,

duty to ''roast everything" when 1

COST OF GOVERNMENT.



Washington Nov 21.-The recent dis
cussion as to the revenue producing
qualities Of tue present tariff law lends
especial int e. Il to a series of tables
just issued by the treasury bureau Of
statistics, showing the receipts from
various sources by months during a
long term of years.
An examination of those figures
shows that The customs receipts of the

100000 per annum, and at about the
same rate in 1898, omittng the Pacific
railroad and extraordinary war ex-
penditures. The general plans of those
charged with the duty Of providing the
revenues for the government have con-
templated the production of one-half
Of the necessary expenditures from GUS
ternal revenue and miscellaneous
sources.
The daily statement of receipts and
expenditures issued by the treasury
department shows that on Nov. II, the
l4Oth day of the present fiscal year.
the customs receipts had during these
lao days amounted to S73, ,340 429. OF
this sum a little over 81, 600. 900 was
