Regardless OF Age.

The kidneys are responsible for more
sickness. suffering, and deaths than any
other organs of the body.
A majority of the ills affecting people
to-day Is traceable to kidney trouble. Ii
pervades all classes of society, in all
climates, regardless of age, sex or con-
difion.
The symptoms of kidney trouble are
unmistakable, such as rheumatism, neu-
ralgia, sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in
the back, a desire TO uriDate often day or
night, profuse or scanty supply.
Uric acid, or brck.dust deposit in urine
are signs of clogged kidneys, causing
poisoned and germ. filled blood. Some
times the heart acts badly, and tube
casts (wasting of the Kidneys are found
in the urine. which if neglected will re-
suit in Bright's Disease. the most dan
gerous form of kidney trouble.
All these symptoms and conditions are
promptly removed under the influence of
DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root. 1t has a
world wide reputation for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.
No one need be long without it as It is
so easy to get at any drug store at fifty
cents or one dollar. You can have a

CARS FLANS FOR PEACE.
Russian Foreign Minister on the Coming
Congress.

ST. Petersburg, Jan. 17.-Count Muir
aviefi, Minister Of Foreign Affairs, has
addressed another circular to the pow
ers, expressing the opinion that despite
the clOuding of the political horizon
since his first circular and the facts
that some governments are preparing
to mere Use their ornaments, the convO-
cation of Il peace Congress is still desir-
able. The Russian Government thinks
it possible and advisable to have pre-
liminary interchange of ideas by the
various Cabinets for the purpose of pre-
pairing the way for diplomatic discus
sion.
Count Muravieff suggests that it is
desirable to arrive at an understanding
on the following points. namely, to
agree not to increase naval or military
tnrces and the corresponding budgets
for u fixed period: second, 10 endpuvUr
to find means of reducing the fore -
and budgets in the future; third, to in
tcrdict the use of any new weapon or
explosive of power fuller than now
made: fourth, to restrict the use Of the
most terrible of existing explosives, and
to forbid the throwing of any explosives
from balloons or similarly.
Fifth, to forbid the employment of
submarine tOrpedoes and similar con-
trivances.
Sixth, to undertake not to construct
vessels with rams.
Seventh, to apply the Geneva con-
vention to naval warfare.
Eighth, to neutralize vessels saving
those wrecked in naval battles.
Ninth, to revise the declaration con-
corning the laws and customs of war
elaborated at Brussels in 1874.
Tenth, to accept the principle of
mediation and arbitration in such cases
as lend themselves thereto.
The circular reat1irms that nothing
touching existing political relations
shall he discussed. 1t suggests that
the ultimate conference be held at the
capital of a secondary power, proba bly,
Brussels or Copenhagen.

The Paul Jones Given Up as Lost.

Biloxi, Miss. Jan. l9.-After thor
ough and fruitless search of the Missis-
sippi sound and coast, inside and out
side of Chandelour, Ship and Horn
Islands, there seems to be little cause
for hope that the naptha launch Paul
Jones is ailoat, and every reason to be-
lieve that the persons aboard of her
have persisted. The theory is advanced
that the little craft came to grief close
in shore, through the explosion of
naptha gas. The intense anxiety of
the friends and relatives of those
aboard the missing launch is displayed
in the free use of telegraph wires to all
points where news of her would be
likely to be obtained

Washington. Jan. 19.-The War De-
partment had decided to court-martial
General Eagan. General Merritt will
be President of the court which will
sit at Washington. On account of the
impo5sibility of getting enough general
officers to make up the entire detail,
there will be some officers of junior
rank on the court. Gen. Eagan's eX-
purgatcd statement has been returned
30 the War Investigating Commission.
1t was accompanied by Eagans formal
apology to the Commission for the in
decent language which he used in his
vitupcratiOn of General Miles.
On Friday of last week Gen. Charles
+. EagIn, Commissary-Ge of Sub
sistence, appeared before the War In
vestigating Commission and read a
lengthy statement in which he repeat
eddy charged that the assertions Of
Gen. Miles respecting the operations
of the Commissary Department in the
war with Spain We're lies. Gen. Eagan
referred particularly to Gen. Miles
testimony before the Investigating
Commission that the refrigerated beef
furnished the troops was embalmed
beef, and declared that this assertion
was a scandalous libel.

How TO PREVENT PNEUMONIA.

You are perhaps aware that pneumonia
always results from cold or from an
attack of la grippe. During the epidem-
ic of la grippe few years ago when so
many cases resulted In pneumonia. ii
was observed that the attack was never
followed by that disease when Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy was used. 1t
counteracts any tendency of cold or
la grippe to result in that dangerous dis
ease. 1t is the best remedy in the world
for bad colds and la grippe. Every

GEN. NELSON A. MILES.

At one time Gen. Eagan said of Gen.
Miles: "He lies in his throat, he lies
IN his heart, he lies in every hair of his
head and every pore of his body: he
lies wilfully, deliberately, Intentionally
and maliciously." At another time he
said: ''If his statement is false. as |
assert it to be, then he should be
drummed out of the service and incar-
ceratcd in prison with other libellers. "
When the character of Gen. Eagan's
testimony became known at the War
Department it created IA greater sensa-
tion there than it had before the in
vestigatng Commission. Officers IA
miliar with army laws said that Gen.
Eagan could not escape "a court-martial.
Officers friendly to Gen. Eagan in the
controversy with Gen. Miles expressed
regret that such language had been
used by one officer toward the COM
manding General of the army, and ex-
pressed the opinion that there could be
no excuse for it.
A reporter saw Gen. Miles and ac
quainted him with the charges of Gen
Eagan. Gen. Miles appeared much
amused, and, after humming a few sec

Mr.. Hoar said that our fathers who
framed the constitution We're the wisest
builders of states the world had ever
seen. They had studied ancient history
and had learned that while there is lit
tie else that democracy cannot accom-
plish it cannot rule over vassal states
or subject peoples without bringing the
elements of death into its own constitu-
ton. Our fathers, he said, learned two
lessons from the history Of Greece-the
danger of disGnion and domestic strife
and an indulgence in the greed and lust
of empire-and he hoped we might
avert the latter danger as we HAD avert
ed the former. In this connection he
quoted Professor Greasy as saying in
his Fifteen Decisive Battles of the
World" There has never been a re-
public yet in history that acquired do
minion over another nation that did not
rule it selfishly and oppressively. There
is no single exception to this rule either
in ancient or modern times.
81 hope not to weary the senate by
reiteration. said Mr.. Hoar, concluding
his preface, "but this is the greatest
question, this question of the power
and authority of our constitution in
this matter. | had almost said that had
been discussed among mankind from
the beginning of time. Certainly it is
the greatest question ever discussed in
this chamber from the beginning of the
government "
Mr.. Hoar believed. he said. this coun
