The Washington administration is pre-
pairing for trouble in the Philippines. The
Oregon and Iowa, which are to san to the
Pacific, bound ostensibly for Honolulu,
are really going so as to be in position to
re-enforce Admiral Dewey should he need
help. As it is known that Admiral
Dewey's ships can give but little assist
ance in the suppression of Aguinaldo and
his. insurgent army, it is evident that the
administration fears foreign complica-
tions. Germany's intrigues are still be-
ing closely watched, with special refer
ence to her seizure of anything in the
Philippines that may be unlawfully ceded
to her by Spain, such as coaling station
in territory which the peace commission
may award in it's entirety to America. A

Bad Luck Of Mutual Hail Insurance
Company - Opening of Milwaukee
Exposition - Supposed Murder at
Plattevi1ie--Burg1ar at Tomah.

Considerable interest is manifest ever
the outcome of an experiment tobacco
growers are making this season with hail
insurance. Early in the season a mutual
bail Insurance company came into the
held and secured large number of risks
throughout the tobacco section of our
State. The plan only called for a nominal
payment when the policy was issued, the
losses, If any, were to be paid by assess
ment at the end of the season. After an
adjuster has spent some weeks on the
track Of several hailstorms, he gives out
the information that some 300 claims for
losses have been figured on in Rock Coun-
ty alone and that it will take $4,000 to
pay these adjustments. This sum, which
is probably only a fraction of the total
amount to be raised, must come from the
policy holders and it remains to be seen
how promptly the farmers will respond to
the assessments soon to be levied.

ParSnip Complexion.

1t does not require an expert TO detect
the sufferer from kidney trouble. The
hollow cheeks, the sunken eyes, the daik,
puffy circles under the eyes, the sallow,
parsnip- -oolored complexion indicates it.
A physician would ask il you had rheu-
matism, a dull pain or ache in the back
or over the hips, stomach trouble, desire
to urinate often, or a burning or scalding
in passing it; if after passing there is an
unsatisfied feeling as il it must be at once
repeated, or if the urine has brick dust
deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, no
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel. catarrh of the
bladder, Inflammation, causing stOppage,
and sometimes requiring the drawing Of
the urine with instruments, or may run
into Bright's Disease, the most dangerous
stage OF kidney trouble.
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great
discovery OF the eminent kidney and blad-
der specialist. is a positive remedy for
such diseases. Its reputation is world
wide, and it is so easy to get at any drug
store that no one need suffer any length
Of time for want OF it.
However, if you prefer to first test it's
wonderful merits, mention THE OLNEY-
