What Shall We Do.

A serious and dangerous disease prevail:
in this country, dangerous because so decep-
tive. 1t comes on so slowly yet surely that il
is often firmly seated before we are aware Of it.
The name of this disease which may be
divided into three distinct stages is, First,
Kidney trouble, indicated by pain in the back,
rheumatism, lumbago, frequent desire to
urinate often with a burning sensation, the
flow of urine being copious or scant with
strong odor.
If allowed to advance, this reaches the
Second stage, or Bladder trouble, with heavy
pain in the abdomen low down between the
navel and the water passage, increasing de
sire to urinate, with scalding sensation il
passing, small quantities being passed with
difficulty, sometimes necessary to draw il
with instruments. If uric acid or gravel has
formed, it will prove dangerous if neglected
The Third stage is Brights Disease.
There is comfort in knowing that DIR
Kilmer, the great kidney and bladder
specialist, has discovered a Remedy famous
for its marvellous cures of the most distressing
cases and known as DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root.
1t is sold by all druggists.
As a proof of the wonderful virtues of thi
great discovery, Swamp Root, sample bottle

absolutely free by mail on application to DR.

DhwEY's WELCOME HOME.
New York WIN Appropriate $50. 1000
For tho CeremonIcs.

For the Ceremonies,
New York, May 16-That New
York's welcome to Admiral Dewey is
to be conducted on a grand scale was
shown yesterday when the Joint COM
mittee of the city councils decided to-
call on the municipal assembly to au-
thorize an appropriation of $4,000
for the city's part in the welcome
Mayor Van Wyck heartily approves Of
such an appropriation. Resolutions
providing for the expenditure of this
amount were introduced in each
branch today. The charter makes il
necessary that these resolutions be re-
ferred to the finance committee. They
will be reported upon favorably next
week, and will probably be adopted
without a dissenting vote II was de-
cided that the official reception shall
be held on the day after Admiral
Dewey arrives.
The governor of each state will be
invited to attend and each state asked
to send a regiment or two of its ma
tional guard.
The route of the naval parade as
now planned is from Quarantine or
from Tompkinsville, through the har-
Dor then up the North river to Grants
tomb, Here, it is expected Admiral
Dewey will leave the Olympia. After
visiting the tomb he will pass the
thousands of soldiers and marines that
are to take part in the land parade.
These soldiers are to be lined up on
either side of the route that will be
followed in reaching city hall. At
city hall, where a reviewing stand will
be erected, the admiral will be pre-
sented some beautiful tribute from the
city, yet to be decided upon.
Mayor Van Wyck and all the mem
bers of the joint committee believe
that everything done for Admiral
Dewey while he is here should be done
officially. The mayor does not look
with favor on the plan for the $4,000
private dinner. As to the banquet that
the city will offer, that is a detail yet
TO be arranged.

Fatal Labor Riot I'm Cuba.

Cienfuegos, Cuba, May 16.-About 5
O'Clock last evening a gang of Cuban
dock laborers called on Captain Bar
ker, captain of the port, and made a
demand for back pay. AS they were
violent Captain Barker drew his re-
volver. The laborers retired, but soon
returned with 80 others and made a
similar demand, using obscene and
profane language, insulting Captain
Barker and offering threats. The Gu
ban police were ordered to arrest the
malcontents, and general street fight
followed, in which one laborer was
killed and seven persons wounded, in
Guiding three members of the police
force. The Second United States in

Burning Her Children.

Nepress Nearly Lynched For Terribly
Burning Her Children.
Atlanta, Ca, May 16.-Winnie Roach,
a mulatto woman. came near being
lynched by mob of negroes last night.
The crime with which she and her
husband were charged was brutally
burning their four children nearly to
death by igniting paper saturated with
kerosene, with which their bodies had
been wrapped. The man, Lawrence
Roach, ran away during the afternoon
when he heard that his treatment OF
the children had been reported to the
police. The woman was in the house
when the mob gathered, and was In
the act of applying more fire to one OF
the children when the crowd broke In
Telephone messages were sent to the
police station by white people livina
in the neighborhood who said they
believed the woman was about to be
burned by the crowd. A wagonload Of
officers was sent to the place.
One of the children had all the hesi
burned from her legs In several places
and will die. The other three are
badly burned.

Some time ago the Post Office
authorities decided to break up the
business of private letter boxes, con
Quoted with great profit by hosts Of
cigar store merchants and proprietors
of other establishments not usually
engaged in housing a hundred or so
guests in the larger cities. The de
partment gave as its reason that it
wished to break up all chances for
vice that the custom had resulted in
a spread Of immortality, and that it
ought to be stopped. And it stopped
the system right there, refusing to
deliver mail to addresses OF private
letter box concerns.
At the time it was pointed out that
vast sum of money was made in the
aggregate by the keepers of these
stores. The city Of New York has
taken this tip. Private letter boxes
are to flourish once more. But the
city is to reap the reward. 1t is
planned to equip all branch stations
with private boxes, for which the
users shall be charged sum which
in the total will mean an annual
fortune.
The city department gives as its
reason for the innovation that "since
the closing Of the private boxes hard
ship has been inflicted on many per-
sons who had legitimate use for such
conYeniences." But the department
isn't going to let these same persons
do business in the old way. All, no.
They must pay the freight to the
city.

PARNAssUs Borough, in Westmore
land county, has been legislated out
of existence by an oversight on the
part of the last Legislature. The bor-
ough was incorporated under what is
known as the Birmingham charter
act. The Legislature repealed this
act, but made no provision for the
government of the numerous bor-
oughs of this state which secured
their charters under that piece of
legislation. AS a result, all of these
boroughs are now without any legal
existence.
