Condemned Alb. Haas. Property.

Special TO the indianapolis Journal.
WABASH, Ind, May 1.-THE board of
appraisers appointed by Judge Shively, of
the Wabash Circuit Court. in accordance
with the special enactment passed by the
late General Assembly, authorizing County
Commissioners to condemn real estate for
county purposes, has filed its report in the
case against Absalom Haas. Mr.. Haas
Owns a fraction OF a block on which the fine
new $4,000 Memorial Hall was erected. and,
as the commissioners and he could not agree
on a valuation, the law was got through
the Legislature for the special purpose of
c~ondemning the property. The appraisers
fix the value at $2.60o, and IL is understood
that Mr.. Haas holds ii at A.oO. so long
and expensive litigation is i'm prospect. Mr..
Haas is the father of Schuyler Haas, an
Indianapolis attorney.

At the meeting of the Board Of Public
Works this morning the bids for the re-
paving of Pennsylvania street, from Wash
ington to Ohio. will be opened and If any
one of them meets with the boards APP
prevail the contract will be awarded. As
this will be the most important street i'm
provement of the year there will doubtless
be very lively competition among the con-
tractors. II will be remembered that this
improvement was TO have been made last
summer, but that the board considered the
bids received at that time much too high.
II Is thought that the bids received to-day
will be much lower and the board does not
anticipate much trouble in making arrange
ments for a substantial asphalt pavement
along this important thoroughfare.

Tanner and His Machine.

: bloomington Bulletin.
} Tanner has returned from his west
ern trip, and his travelling companion,
Mr.. Peters. secretary of the state
board of charities, says the governor
is candidate for denomination. Each
and every Tanner appointee will now
begin to hustle for delegates, and with
the powerful state machine at his
back, at this time il looks as though
John Riley would secure the nOmina-
tion from the next republican state
convention.
Keep your eye on the Tanner Office
holders and witness their adroit activ-
ity for the statesman from Clay coun-
~. While a major part and the bet
ter part of the republican party are
strenuously opposed to Tanner, yet
the activity and power of the machine
will prevail and Tanner will be the
nominee.
However. the anti-Tanner men will
make n vigorous fight, but they lack
organization. and the national admin
istration having so much trouble of
its own. is not disposed to lend a
helping hand in the fight against Tan
ner.
All the signs indicate that Illinois
will elect a democratic governor. a
democratic legislature and that Shell

1T Is VERY SCIENTIFIC.
Preferred to All Others of Its Kind.
A Few of the Many Points of Excellence
Not to be Found Among Others.

Morrow's Kid-ne-oids. the great
remedy for kidney and urinary all
ments. is scientific preparation 1t
has been perfected after IS years of
hard work by an experienced chemist.
Kid-ns-oids act gently. thoroughly,
quickly and directly on the kidneys,
nerves and urinary organs. They
build up the system and restore its
normal parts to their natural condi-
ton.
Mrs. George Cough, 632 Grace
street, Elgin, ILL.,, speaks in favor of
Morrow's Kid-ne-oids, as follows: Il
have had severe pain in my back for
long time previous to taking Nor
rows Kid-ne-oids, but after taking
them relief came suddenly and l can
recommend kid-ne-oids to anyone suf-
fering from a weak back, which is
caused by disordered Kidneys"
When the kidneys are sluggish and
overworked, backache is the first indi-
cation that something is wrong. Do
not let a slight backache or pain in
the region of the kidneys 90 unheed-
ed. A few doses of Morrow's Kid-ne-
ODDS will remove the backache in a
very short time, and course of treat
ment with Kid-ne-oids for about two
weeks is usually sufficient to cure
bad case of kidney complaint.
Kid-ne-oids are not pills, but yellow
tablets. which is scientific form of
preparing of medicine. They are put
up in wooden boxes which contain
enough for about two weeks treat
ment and sell at 80 cents box at NJ.
